"What does Your Imperial Majesty mean by this?"
Seeing Li Er's reaction, Empress Zhangsun asked curiously.
At this moment, Princess Changle's attention was also focused on Li Er. This was because she could sense that her Imperial Father was angry.
"Hmph! Do you know what kind of material is used to make this so-called 'Meteoric Success'? "
Thinking of this, Li Er became somewhat angry. He felt that he had been toyed with by Li Zexuan.
"This servant does not know!"
Empress Zhangsun shook her head and replied.
She had wanted to investigate the materials used to make 'Soaring to Glory'. However, when she used her chopsticks to take a look, she discovered that the inside was a flour-like substance. She could not tell what it was. (The 'Soaring to Glory' that the academy made today was made with crushed locusts mixed with flour and eggs. It was not strange that Zhangsun could not tell the ingredients.)
"Locusts! 'Soaring to Glory' was made with locusts. Li Zexuan, this stinking brat, actually dared to deceive Us. We must properly deal with him! "
Li Er sat at the head of the table and angrily slapped it.
"Urgh!"
Hearing that they had been eating locusts, Zhangsun and Changle's faces turned deathly pale. Their stomachs churned, and they nearly vomited.
"Imperial Father, please do not blame Brother Xiaoxuan. Brother Xiaoxuan definitely would not harm Changle. There must be something hidden here!"
Changle recovered her wits and promptly pleaded with Li Er.
"That's right! Your Imperial Majesty! Xiaoxuan has always been a loyal and righteous child. He does not seem to be someone who does not know the gravity of the situation. Perhaps these locusts really are effective against asthma? "
Empress Zhangsun glanced at her eldest daughter and then spoke in support.
Li Er coldly snorted and said, "Hmph! There is no need for you to speak for that brat. Yesterday, We already asked the two doctors of the Imperial Physician Bureau. They have never heard of locusts being able to treat asthma. From this, it can be seen that Li Zexuan's words are nothing but nonsense! As We see it, this stinking brat is definitely itching for a beating! "
Seeing that Li Er only spoke fiercely but did not have any intention of punishing him, how could Empress Zhangsun, who had been with Li Er for over ten years, not understand what he was thinking? She could not help but inwardly breathe a sigh of relief.
"Perhaps this child remembered wrongly. It can be assumed that he does not have any ill intentions. Your Imperial Majesty, please do not blame him!"
"Hmph! I will settle the score with him in the afternoon. Take these things away and don't eat them in the future! "
Li Er pointed at the Meteoric Success in the food box and said with a straight face.
"Yes ~!"
Empress Zhangsun responded. Changle, who was next to her, rolled her black eyes as if she was thinking of something.
…
The rain came quickly and left quickly. Around nine o 'clock in the morning, the raindrops had obviously lessened. By noon (eleven o' clock in the morning), the sky had cleared up, the dark clouds had dispersed, and the sun was about to come out.
"Leader, a lady sent a note to you, saying that it's for you!"
When it was almost noon, Mo Zhong came to the "principal's office" and bowed to Li Zexuan.
"Oh ~? Did you ask about that woman's identity? "
Li Zexuan raised his eyebrows and asked curiously.
"That woman said, Yamachō, once you read the note, you will know who wrote the letter!"
"Give it to me!"
Li Zexuan ordered.
Mo Zhong stepped forward and handed over the note, then tactfully retreated. Li Zexuan opened it and looked at it. His expression changed slightly, and he said with some exasperation, "F * ck! This is really good intentions doing a bad thing! Old Li is really narrow-minded! You don't know anything, and you still have the nerve to blame others ~? "
If Li Er heard this, he might go into battle and beat Li Zexuan up!
"Sigh, speaking of which, don't the doctors at this time realize the medicinal value of locusts? It shouldn't be! Now that Old Man Sun is not in Chang 'an, what should I do ~? "
…
"Yamachō, someone from the palace is here. He said that he wants you to prepare to enter the palace to meet the Emperor ~!"
In the afternoon, Mo Zhong came to the "principal's office" again, but this time, Li Zexuan had already changed into a purple official's robe, as if he was already prepared to enter the palace.
"Okay, I got it. You go down first, I will come later!"
Li Zexuan responded and said.
That's right, he was indeed prepared. The note in the morning was a letter that Changle asked a palace maid to send over. In the letter, he completely explained Li Er's plan and attitude to him, so that he could be mentally prepared in advance.
"Yes!"
After a while, Li Zexuan rode a carriage out of the academy, followed by the palace attendant from the palace, and headed in the direction of the palace.
It had just rained heavily, and the mountain roads were extremely difficult to travel on, so this trip took more than an hour before they arrived at the palace.
"Your Majesty, Li Zhanshi is already here ~!"
At the Sweet Dew Hall, a small yellow door entered the hall and bowed carefully.
"… Announce ~!"
"Announce, Li Zhanshi for an audience ~!"
Hearing the eunuch's shout, Li Zexuan took small steps and entered the hall seriously. He then bowed to Li Er and said, "Your subject greets Your Majesty ~!"
"Hmph ~! Li Zexuan, you maliciously deceived me and tricked the Empress and Princess into eating locusts. How should you be punished ~? "
Li Er didn't let Li Zexuan get up. Instead, he directly pressured him coldly.
"Your subject is terrified! Your subject doesn't know when I have deceived Your Majesty. Your Majesty, please enlighten me! "
Although he knew what Li Er meant, Li Zexuan still pretended to be ignorant and asked.
After all, Changle had kindly informed him of Gout's news. He couldn't betray an ally at a critical moment!
"Hmph! Do you need me to remind you of what you did ~? What did you tell me yesterday? Didn't you say that locusts could cure Changle's asthma? But why did I ask all the imperial physicians in the palace, but none of them knew that locusts had this function? And you still say that you are not deceiving me ~? "
Li Er glared and said angrily.
Li Zexuan was already mentally prepared for this. He began to put on an act and said with a surprised expression, "How is this possible ~? Your Majesty is wise. Locusts do indeed have extremely high medicinal value. What I told Your Majesty yesterday was only the tip of the iceberg. These things were all said by my master himself. If Your Majesty doesn't believe me, you can ask Priest Sun when he returns to Chang 'an. What I said is absolutely not false! "
In fact, locusts could not only stop coughing and asthma, detoxify, penetrate rashes, treat whooping cough, bronchial asthma, infantile convulsions, sore throats, obstructed rashes, bronchitis, stop cramps, and so on. They could also reduce blood pressure, lose weight, lower cholesterol, nourish the body, and nourish the stomach and spleen. If eaten for a long time, they could prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. When used externally, they could treat otitis media. Frosted locusts could treat dysentery, enteritis, and so on. Whether it was Changle or Li Tai, locusts were very beneficial to their bodies.
It was just that many doctors had yet to realize the value of locusts ~!
