Chapter 243: Sweeping the Entire Qilin Hall, Murderous Intent Rises, Made Ying Zheng
Ten days passed in a flash.
These past few days, Xianyang City had been unusually calm.
Inside the imperial palace,
Made Ying Zheng had Watching Zhang Han feed the palace maid elixirs every day.
And as that palace maid saw herself taking elixirs daily while her body grew better and better, she slowly relaxed.
She guessed in her heart,
perhaps His Majesty just wanted to find someone to test the medicine.
In the following days, Made Ying Zheng increased the dosage even further.
The palace maid needed to take an elixir every so often.
"How is your body?"
Made Ying Zheng lowered his eyes slightly and asked Watching Zhang Han, who was standing to the side.
During this period, having the palace maid take the elixirs was Watching Zhang Han's entire job.
And Watching Zhang Han also carefully observed the changes in the palace maid's body every day.
"Replying to Your Majesty."
"In the first few days, that palace maid's body grew better and better, and she seemed to have become a bit more robust. '753'"
"Ever since you ordered the dosage to be increased, that palace maid seems to have had some changes."
Watching Zhang Han told him everything he had observed over these past few days.
"You mean to say that in these past few days, she has actually felt her body becoming somewhat weak?"
Made Ying Zheng's body moved slightly, and he opened his eyes to look at Watching Zhang Han.
During the time when he hadn't been taking the elixirs at the beginning, he had felt uncomfortable all over.
It was as if ants were biting his entire body, causing him pain.
But Made Ying Zheng had endured all of this.
A few days ago, when he saw the palace maid's body getting better and better, Made Ying Zheng had originally felt some suspicion in his heart.
But after feeling the changes in his own body when he didn't take the elixirs,
Made Ying Zheng was already certain in his heart.
These elixirs definitely had problems.
After waiting for so long, he had finally waited for a result.
"Continue to increase the dosage for me, take it daily."
He ordered.
Watching Zhang Han nodded; he had also seen the trick behind these elixirs.
Because recently, due to his physical weakness, Made Ying Zheng had not attended the morning court for a long time.
Watching Zhang Han having that palace maid enter every day had long since attracted the attention of those with ulterior motives in the palace.
"Mr. Zhang, have you heard?"
"Who hasn't heard of this?"
"I heard that His Majesty summons that palace maid into the hall every day, and is even unwilling to attend the morning court."
The ministers soon learned the reason why Made Ying Zheng was unwilling to attend the morning court.
Angry expressions flashed across their eyes one after another.
They all felt that it was that palace maid who was spreading evil words and bewitching His Majesty.
That was why His Majesty was unwilling to even attend the morning court.
Li Si naturally heard the discussions of his colleagues nearby.
A flash of contemplation crossed his eyes.
Based on his understanding of Made Ying Zheng, Made Ying Zheng was not a person who would indulge in female beauty.
What Made Ying Zheng valued most was naturally the power in his hands.
How could the previously diligent Made Ying Zheng be unwilling to attend the morning court?
Li Si suppressed the doubts in his eyes and prepared to investigate the news.
Outside the Qilin Hall,
"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Li requests an audience."
The palace attendant told Made Ying Zheng the news of Li Si's request for an audience.
A glimmer of sharpness flashed in Made Ying Zheng's narrowed eyes.
"Summon him."
A low and weak voice sounded.
Li Si heard Made Ying Zheng's voice from outside the door, and he already had a guess in his heart.
Perhaps there was another important reason why Made Ying Zheng was not attending the morning court: his body was no longer sufficient to support him in attending the morning court.
It seems that just as Donghuang Taiyi said, Made Ying Zheng's body had completely collapsed.
It is feared that before long, Made Ying Zheng will completely die.
Thinking of their previous plan, Li Si secretly decided in his heart to accelerate the progress.
"Your Majesty."
Entering the palace, he raised his head and took a slight look at Made Ying Zheng sitting on the dragon couch.
Li Si quickly lowered his head.
He was very clear that even in a weak state, Made Ying Zheng would not like someone who dared to look him directly in the eye.
Made Ying Zheng liked the feeling of being above everything else.
Li Si tried his best to lower his body to ensure that Made Ying Zheng's gaze toward him was from a superior position.
Made Ying Zheng lifted his eyelids and looked at Li Si, who was kneeling there.
"What is the matter?"
The voice sounded as if it were hanging by a thread.
"This subject has heard that recently, Your Majesty has been favoring a palace maid every day."
"Why does Your Majesty not take that palace maid into the harem?"
When Li Si came over, several colleagues had asked Li Si to deal with the palace maid by Made Ying Zheng's side.
But Li Si decided to let Made Ying Zheng take that palace maid as a concubine.
Made Ying Zheng's eyebrows twitched.
His gaze turned to Watching Zhang Han, who was standing to the side.
"Summon her, confer the title of Talent."
Watching Zhang Han immediately understood His Majesty's meaning.......
That palace maid entering and leaving His Majesty's palace every day had long since attracted the attention of those with ulterior motives.
If she were conferred the title of concubine, it would be logical and natural.
"Yes."
Watching Zhang Han received the order and walked out.
Seeing that His Majesty decided to do as he suggested with just one recommendation,
the suspicion Li Si had previously held toward Made Ying Zheng slowly faded away.
Previously, someone had entered his study, and he had been guessing whether it was Made Ying Zheng or the ghost who had taken action.
Regarding Made Ying Zheng, Li Si also did not know what he was thinking.
But one thing Li Si could be certain of was that if Made Ying Zheng knew he had participated in that matter back then,
Made Ying Zheng would absolutely not let him off.
But looking at this scene, Made Ying Zheng seemed to have no idea that he had also participated in that matter five years ago.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty."
While Li Si felt a sense of relief in his heart, he spoke.
Made Ying Zheng waved his hand, a look of fatigue flashing across his face.
"This subject takes his leave." ===== CHAPTER 245 =====
