Early the next morning, after they had washed and washed, the palace servants brought breakfast as usual.
The emperor's meal was a bowl of millet porridge.
The rice porridge was boiled until it was so soft that it melted in the mouth, but the emperor had been in a coma for too long, so it was extremely troublesome to feed, and sometimes it took an hour to finish a bowl of porridge.
The palace people were also unwilling to do this kind of meticulous work. After all, when feeding, the emperor could choke if he didn't pay attention. Once the emperor really had something wrong, they couldn't bear it!
After Wen Yue finished feeding the emperor, she sat on the dining table with Wen Xun'er, and when they finished their breakfast, the soup and medicine were brought.
The emperor's medicine needs to be taken twice a day, that is to say, the need for acupuncture needs to be given twice a day.
Concubine Yue winked at Wen Xun'er, then took the medicine bowl and entered the room.
The person in charge of delivering the medicine was Nanny Xia in the Queen's Palace. Before Concubine Yue was away, he was in charge of the emperor's soup and medicine. Now that Concubine Yue came, she just watched the emperor take it.
After taking the medicine, the imperial doctor came to take the Ping An pulse as usual, and the whole hall became quiet.
Wen Xun'er carried the silver needle in her pocket and went to the emperor's bed.
The ten-finger bloodletting will not take too long, the main thing is to find the exact acupuncture points.
Bi Cao was watching people from the outside, and Concubine Yue was guarding the door of the inner hall just in case. After half an hour passed, Wen Xun'er was sweating from exhaustion, and the emperor's bloodletting was finally over.
"The empress is here!"
She had just finished collecting the silver needles when she suddenly heard the voice of the palace servants from outside, Bi Cao hurriedly ran into the inner hall: "Your Majesty, it's not good, the Empress Empress is here!"
Concubine Yue has heard the communication from outside.
She hurriedly came to the bed, but was surprised: "Why does the emperor..."
The emperor, who had just finished bleeding, was actually sweating.
"It's too late!" Wen Xun'er couldn't explain at the moment, hurriedly took a handkerchief and wiped the emperor's forehead, looking at Concubine Yue.
Concubine Yue also reacted very quickly, she immediately lowered the curtain of the bed, the two of them had just done this, when there was movement from outside, the queen entered the hall.
"Greetings to the empress!"
Bi Cao hurriedly saluted outside.
The queen swept across the inner hall: "Where is Concubine Yue?"
"Sister is looking for me?" Concubine Yue came out of the inner hall with a smile, saluted her, and then looked at her face, "I haven't seen you for a few days, my sister's complexion seems to have improved a lot!"
The queen looked her up and down for a moment, then sneered: "Compared to Concubine Yue, I can't help myself!"
Her eyes fell on Wen Xun'er who was behind Concubine Yue, and she smiled again: "Miss Wen is there?"
"Greetings to the Empress!" Wen Xun'er replied after saluting, "Xun'er is fine after all, I am afraid that Auntie has no one to talk to, so I come to accompany Auntie!"
After finishing speaking, she looked at the person beside the queen: "It turns out that Miss Li is also here!"
Li Yunni followed behind the queen, looking like a proper little daughter-in-law. Seeing Wen Xun'er greet her, she hurriedly stepped forward. Concubine Chaoyue said after seeing the ceremony: "Today, I happen to greet the empress, so I will go with the empress." Come and see the emperor!"
"The emperor is well! Let's see!"
She turned around and went inside, and when she reached the dragon bed, she opened half of the curtain directly.
The queen looked at the people in the bed, and she didn't have much expression on her face, but when she approached, Concubine Yue suddenly put down the curtain of the bed: "Sister, can I have breakfast? Do you want my sister to send someone to pass on some breakfast?" Come in?"
"No need, use it when you come."
She passed Concubine Yue, and was about to lift the curtain with her hand, but Concubine Yue said in a strange way: "Just look at it, there are no outsiders here, there is no need for sister to act!"
"Concubine Yue, what do you mean?" The queen paused when she lifted the curtain, and looked at her with displeasure.
Wen Yue crossed her arms and leaned on the side to look at her, playing disrespect to the extreme: "I have been here for a few days, and my sister came here just today. I don't know, I thought the person lying on the couch was not The Lord of the world!"
She bit down on the "lord of the world", clearly mocking the empress' party's coercion.
Sure enough, the queen's face darkened immediately: "Since you know that the person lying on this couch is the Lord of the World, you should know that you are nothing now! I only let you here for the sake of the emperor." Serve, otherwise, where do you get the qualification to enter this Yuehua Palace?"
"You..." Concubine Yue immediately looked like she was going crazy, and then she turned around suddenly, opened the curtain, and threw herself directly at the emperor on the couch, "Your Majesty, did you hear that? If you don't wake up, there will be no room for a concubine in this harem!"
She cried up and down, and the appearance of hugging the emperor completely blocked the queen's sight.
She roughly saw the sleeping face of the emperor, and was about to take a closer look, when Li Yunni suddenly pulled the queen's sleeve: "Auntie..."
Everyone in the harem knew that Concubine Yue lived in Yuehua Palace, and it would not be a good thing if the sound of her crying came out.
A hint of disgust flashed across the Empress's brows, and she said to Concubine Yue in a gentle tone: "Okay, I know that you have done a good job in taking care of the Emperor, don't worry, when the Emperor wakes up, I will speak good words for you!"
She glanced at the emperor again through Concubine Yue's shoulder, then turned around and said, "Go back to the palace!"
It wasn't until the whole group left in a mighty way that Concubine Yue collapsed and sat on the ground.
Wen Xun'er hurried forward, only to see that the emperor's clothes were completely wet with sweat, and his temples were also wet, but the sweat that had just been wiped off his forehead was not obvious, and could only be discovered by looking carefully.
These are all secondary.
The needle hole where the needle was inserted just now is still dripping with blood. If the queen had inspected it closely just now, she would definitely find something strange about the emperor!
Thinking of this, Wen Xun'er remembered the look in Li Yunni's eyes when she left just now, and guessed that she should be the rescuer invited by Gu Yunzhi, otherwise, how could the queen let concubine Yue cry and not check the emperor's situation carefully!
Anyway, fortunately, it was safe and sound!
"Okay, let's all back down!" Wen Xun'er ordered the palace people to go out, and then Wen Xun'er helped Concubine Yue up, "Auntie, can you remember my technique just now?"
Concubine Yue wiped the corners of her eyes, returned to her usual look, and nodded.
"Are you afraid?"
Wen Xun'er nodded: "There are so many changes in the palace today, it's hard to guarantee what will happen in the next moment, if I can't get away for a while, aunt can do it too!"
Concubine Yue nodded: "Don't worry."
The difference from Wen Xun'er is that she has been in the palace for many years, she has a basic knowledge of embroidery, and she can hold a needle very steadily.
For three consecutive days, after they bled the emperor every day, the emperor's complexion gradually improved.
Concubine Yue was delighted, and she became more attentive in serving the emperor.
And the imperial doctor who came to take the pulse every day didn't know if it was settled by Gu Yunzhi. Anyway, after the pulse was checked every day, he lifted the curtain and took a look at the emperor's face, then took the medicine box out, and said nothing else, naturally, There is no bad news coming from outside.
After a few more days of living in peace, Wen Xun'er had nothing to do this day, playing with parrots on the porch, and happened to see a few palace officials gossiping on the other side.
"Have you heard? This time, the rebels are on the verge of coming, and they have already occupied several towns outside the city!"
Wen Xun'er's eyelids twitched, and he moved close to the wall.
"It's not just outside the city! Since the emperor's accident, there have been all kinds of rumors outside, especially during this time, the news about the emperor's unconsciousness has directly reached the ears of the people in the countryside. Those who are rebellious have long been unable to hold back, especially our Dayan Kingdom has always been full of bandits. When the emperor was around, he tried his best to recruit security and gave these bandits all the benefits. Now that something happened to the emperor, officials everywhere began to be lazy. Once the government is over, those bandits will naturally start to make trouble again after losing their benefits, just wait for someone to take the lead!"
"Yeah, but if one voice is reversed, it must be a response to all voices!"
"No, so, if the emperor doesn't wake up, something will really happen!"
"An accident! An accident!"
The parrot suddenly spoke human words and yelled loudly, which frightened the palace servants out of their wits and drove them away.
Wen Xun'er came out from the base of the wall, rushed into the hall, and told Concubine Yue the good news.
"really?"
"It's absolutely true, what the palace people outside said just now! If even the palace people in the palace know about this, it's not a trivial matter!"
She recalled what Xiao Jiwei said earlier that the eldest prince would be too busy to touch the ground, presumably this was what she was referring to.
Once the eldest prince has no other skills, their side is the best time!
*
On the other side, Sude Palace.
After listening to his subordinate's report, the eldest prince was so angry that he smashed the cup in his hand to pieces!
"This group of damned bandits! They took advantage of this moment to rebel, they really have a good plan!"
"Your Highness, the most urgent task is to put down the rebellion as soon as possible! Although the rebels outside the city are temporarily garrisoned, there will be no big storms for a while, but if the situation is allowed to develop like this, it will be more difficult to control. If the situation is unstable, the entire Great Yan Kingdom will fall into disarray!"
Gu Qiang slapped the table hard, his face turned blue with anger.
"This subordinate feels that the most important thing right now is to get the jade seal as soon as possible!" Another person suggested, "If the jade seal is not in His Royal Highness's hands for a day, His Highness is just a supervisor of the country, and the rebellion is getting worse. It is certainly a good way to suppress the rebellion at this time. But if His Highness can get the jade seal in a legitimate way, he can dispatch troops at will, and then the suppression will be a matter of waving hands?"
A trace of ruthlessness flashed across Gu Qiang's eyes, and he looked at Xiao Jiwei who had been silent at the side: "What do you think?"
"Returning to Your Highness, Ji Wei thought that if the rebellion is to be suppressed, Yuxi must be found! But Ji Wei does not support the forced suppression of the rebellion."
"Oh?" The eldest prince looked at him, "Then according to your words, what should we do?"
"His Royal Highness first boarded the Great Treasure, and what he wants is stability. As we all know, the banditry in Dayan Kingdom has always been a serious problem. It can't be calmed down in a day or two. It is better to continue the emperor's previous practice and continue to command security. As long as His Highness can persuade the biggest bandit Wo, the rest of the small forces that follow the trend are not enough to support. Most of them rely on other big bandits to do this kind of follow suit. Once other bandits get down, they naturally dare not stand!"
When everyone heard it, they felt reasonable.
"Young Master Xiao's words are indeed somewhat reasonable. The situation is not stable at the moment, so doing this is undoubtedly the best way!"
"Well, let's recruit security first!" At this point, Gu Qiang felt troubled again, "It's just, who is the most suitable person for this?"
"If not, why don't young master Xiao go? He has always been good at talking, and he is naturally the best candidate for recruiting security!"
The eldest prince heard the words and looked at Xiao Jiwei: "What do you think?"
Xiao Jiwei swept across the crowd, and took a step forward, "No matter how good the words are, they can't compare to sincerity. For this matter, if His Royal Highness goes there in person and promises them a stable life, that is the most beneficial way to recruit them!"
"You mean, you want me to go there in person?"
"Exactly!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone started to discuss quickly.
"No! The eldest prince has a noble status, and these bandits kill without blinking an eye. If something happens, who can afford it!" Some people disagreed.
"That's right. At such a moment, the eldest prince should sit in the guard palace. How can he take such a risk?"
Gu Qiang swept across the crowd, looked at Xiao Jiwei again, his eyes darkened: "Besides sincerity, there should be other reasons!"
Xiao Jiwei explained the benefits of Gu Qiang's going there one by one.
"In addition to expressing sincerity, of course, as the adults said, there are risks and courage!" He looked at several officials, "Although His Highness is temporarily in control of the court, all the adults know that His Highness does not have a jade seal in his hands. The powerful ministers are still far away and have not returned. In other words, the eldest prince is currently unstable and may be overthrown at any time. One must find the jade seal, but the other should also be shown to those courtiers who have not surrendered. It's time for courage and courage!"
He bowed to Gu Qiang: "If His Highness can personally recruit the bandits under such a situation, His Highness's courage and courage will naturally be known to these courtiers in the future, and they will eventually refuse to surrender now, but once His Highness is honored On the day of ascending to the Great Treasure, isn’t it a matter of time before one surrenders?”
"But even if His Highness doesn't personally recruit, as long as they take the jade seal, will they still submit? Is it possible that they still dare to resist?"
Xiao Jiwei smiled, "Convinced or oral are two different things."
"Just do it like this!" Gu Qiang suddenly made a final decision, "Song Lian, you go to deal with the travel matters of the palace, as for Yuxi..." He looked at Xiao Jiwei, "Jiwei, since the one in Yuehua Palace is your wife, then Ben Gong will leave this matter to you! You must not let Ben Gong down!"
Xiao Jiwei hurriedly bowed: "I will definitely live up to His Highness's trust!"
When everyone left, Gu Qiang kept Xiao Jiwei behind him, walked up to him, looked at him carefully, his eyebrows and eyes were full of satisfaction: "Fortunately, I left you that day, otherwise I would miss a good general today!"
"Your Highness's praise!" Xiao Jiwei expressed his humility.
"Don't worry, when I ascend the Great Treasure in the future, I will definitely not treat you badly!"
Having said this, the First Prince laughed out loud.
Moon Palace.
Ever since the eldest prince brought people out of the palace, the dark cloud covering the entire palace finally dissipated a lot.
For the past two months, the entire imperial palace has been in panic, and they dare not take a breather when doing things, because they are afraid that someone will accidentally offend the master. Now that the eldest prince is leaving the palace, everyone only feels that the big rock hanging in their hearts has finally dissipated, and one or two are rare. relax.
When Xiao Jiwei came to Yuehua Palace, the guards at the gate of the palace were obviously not as strict as before, and there were even two people missing.
"Master Xiao!" Yin Su came out to meet him.
Xiao Jiwei nodded lightly: "I'll come and see the emperor!"
Yin Su led Xiao Jiwei into the room, and as soon as he entered the room, he smelled a faint smell of medicine, and when he went further in, he saw Wen Xun'er nestled beside Concubine Yue, watching her embroider.
"Concubine Yue, Miss Wen, Mr. Xiao is here!"
Concubine Yue touched Wen Xun'er beside her: "I'm looking for you!"
Only then did Wen Xun'er see Xiao Jiwei.
She stood up immediately: "Why are you here?"
Seeing Yin Su by the side, she didn't stop her, Wen Xun'er immediately guessed something, and went forward: "Shall I come and see the emperor? I'll lead you there!"
She took Xiao Jiwei to the inner hall, but Yin Su did not follow.
Wen Xun'er lowered his voice and approached him: "Is the thing you pointed out last time a bandit..."
"Come into my arms after not seeing you for a few days, how much do you miss me?" Xiao Jiwei suddenly held her head and brought her into his arms, and Wen Xun'er's words were swallowed back into his throat.
"Speak these words later!" He lowered his voice to Wen Xun'er's ear, and then glanced outside.
Yin Su was staring at them there, seeing him turning back, suddenly felt that his presence was abrupt, so he took a few steps back.
Wen Xun'er happened to see the back of her leaving.
When she came to her senses, she didn't dare to ask again.
"How is the emperor?"
Wen Xun'er opened the curtain to show him: "It's much better already!"
Speaking of this, there was a slight twitch between her brows and eyes. Xiao Jiwei knew that she must have something else to say, but the current situation couldn't say it.
"come over!"
"What for?" Wen Xun'er looked at his outstretched hand with strange eyes!
Xiao Jiwei took a step forward, took her hand, and said in a low voice, "If you don't get closer to me, how can we be alone?"
Wen Xun'er understood.
In the eyes of outsiders, they are newlyweds after all, and it's normal to be inseparable, otherwise they won't look like a couple at all!
Therefore, when he and Xiao Jiwei walked out arm in arm, Yin Su's guarded look disappeared a lot.
"Auntie, can I borrow the side hall? Let me have a few words with my young lady."
Yin Su's eyes were clear, and there was a smile on his face: "Young Master Xiao, please follow me!"
Yuehua Palace is not too big, but there are countless rooms.
Yin Su led the two of them to the door on the west side: "You two, please go ahead, the slaves will not follow in!"
Xiao Jiwei dragged Wen Xun'er into the house.
As soon as the two entered, the door that had just been closed slammed, as if someone had bumped into it, Yin Su turned around strangely, understood something for a moment, and then walked a little further.
Wen Xun'er looked outside through the crack of the door, and breathed a sigh of relief: "It seems that the eldest prince trusts you, otherwise it would be impossible for me to come out alone with you!"
"He kind of believes me, but the eldest prince is suspicious by nature, so it's better to be careful!" Having said that, he looked at Wen Xun'er, "What did you want to say just now?"
"Just now?" Wen Xun'er remembered what he was referring to, and then lowered his voice: "Yesterday, when my aunt was wiping the emperor's body, she found that the emperor's fingers moved. Thinking about it, the daily bloodletting treatment has a great effect !"
Xiao Jiwei nodded: "As soon as the emperor wakes up, you immediately ask him to issue an imperial edict. The troops stationed outside the city will only obey the imperial edict. At that time, they only need to cooperate internally and externally, and they can plan the eldest prince's wishful thinking!"
Wen Xun'er nodded, full of confidence: "Did you do those bandits and rebels?"
The emperor's meal was a bowl of millet porridge.
The rice porridge was boiled until it was so soft that it melted in the mouth, but the emperor had been in a coma for too long, so it was extremely troublesome to feed, and sometimes it took an hour to finish a bowl of porridge.
The palace people were also unwilling to do this kind of meticulous work. After all, when feeding, the emperor could choke if he didn't pay attention. Once the emperor really had something wrong, they couldn't bear it!
After Wen Yue finished feeding the emperor, she sat on the dining table with Wen Xun'er, and when they finished their breakfast, the soup and medicine were brought.
The emperor's medicine needs to be taken twice a day, that is to say, the need for acupuncture needs to be given twice a day.
Concubine Yue winked at Wen Xun'er, then took the medicine bowl and entered the room.
The person in charge of delivering the medicine was Nanny Xia in the Queen's Palace. Before Concubine Yue was away, he was in charge of the emperor's soup and medicine. Now that Concubine Yue came, she just watched the emperor take it.
After taking the medicine, the imperial doctor came to take the Ping An pulse as usual, and the whole hall became quiet.
Wen Xun'er carried the silver needle in her pocket and went to the emperor's bed.
The ten-finger bloodletting will not take too long, the main thing is to find the exact acupuncture points.
Bi Cao was watching people from the outside, and Concubine Yue was guarding the door of the inner hall just in case. After half an hour passed, Wen Xun'er was sweating from exhaustion, and the emperor's bloodletting was finally over.
"The empress is here!"
She had just finished collecting the silver needles when she suddenly heard the voice of the palace servants from outside, Bi Cao hurriedly ran into the inner hall: "Your Majesty, it's not good, the Empress Empress is here!"
Concubine Yue has heard the communication from outside.
She hurriedly came to the bed, but was surprised: "Why does the emperor..."
The emperor, who had just finished bleeding, was actually sweating.
"It's too late!" Wen Xun'er couldn't explain at the moment, hurriedly took a handkerchief and wiped the emperor's forehead, looking at Concubine Yue.
Concubine Yue also reacted very quickly, she immediately lowered the curtain of the bed, the two of them had just done this, when there was movement from outside, the queen entered the hall.
"Greetings to the empress!"
Bi Cao hurriedly saluted outside.
The queen swept across the inner hall: "Where is Concubine Yue?"
"Sister is looking for me?" Concubine Yue came out of the inner hall with a smile, saluted her, and then looked at her face, "I haven't seen you for a few days, my sister's complexion seems to have improved a lot!"
The queen looked her up and down for a moment, then sneered: "Compared to Concubine Yue, I can't help myself!"
Her eyes fell on Wen Xun'er who was behind Concubine Yue, and she smiled again: "Miss Wen is there?"
"Greetings to the Empress!" Wen Xun'er replied after saluting, "Xun'er is fine after all, I am afraid that Auntie has no one to talk to, so I come to accompany Auntie!"
After finishing speaking, she looked at the person beside the queen: "It turns out that Miss Li is also here!"
Li Yunni followed behind the queen, looking like a proper little daughter-in-law. Seeing Wen Xun'er greet her, she hurriedly stepped forward. Concubine Chaoyue said after seeing the ceremony: "Today, I happen to greet the empress, so I will go with the empress." Come and see the emperor!"
"The emperor is well! Let's see!"
She turned around and went inside, and when she reached the dragon bed, she opened half of the curtain directly.
The queen looked at the people in the bed, and she didn't have much expression on her face, but when she approached, Concubine Yue suddenly put down the curtain of the bed: "Sister, can I have breakfast? Do you want my sister to send someone to pass on some breakfast?" Come in?"
"No need, use it when you come."
She passed Concubine Yue, and was about to lift the curtain with her hand, but Concubine Yue said in a strange way: "Just look at it, there are no outsiders here, there is no need for sister to act!"
"Concubine Yue, what do you mean?" The queen paused when she lifted the curtain, and looked at her with displeasure.
Wen Yue crossed her arms and leaned on the side to look at her, playing disrespect to the extreme: "I have been here for a few days, and my sister came here just today. I don't know, I thought the person lying on the couch was not The Lord of the world!"
She bit down on the "lord of the world", clearly mocking the empress' party's coercion.
Sure enough, the queen's face darkened immediately: "Since you know that the person lying on this couch is the Lord of the World, you should know that you are nothing now!

She cried up and down, and the appearance of hugging the emperor completely blocked the queen's sight.
She roughly saw the sleeping face of the emperor, and was about to take a closer look, when Li Yunni suddenly pulled the queen's sleeve: "Auntie..."
Everyone in the harem knew that Concubine Yue lived in Yuehua Palace, and it would not be a good thing if the sound of her crying came out.
A hint of disgust flashed across the Empress's brows, and she said to Concubine Yue in a gentle tone: "Okay, I know that you have done a good job in taking care of the Emperor, don't worry, when the Emperor wakes up, I will speak good words for you!"
She glanced at the emperor again through Concubine Yue's shoulder, then turned around and said, "Go back to the palace!"
It wasn't until the whole group left in a mighty way that Concubine Yue collapsed and sat on the ground.
Wen Xun'er hurried forward, only to see that the emperor's clothes were completely wet with sweat, and his temples were also wet, but the sweat that had just been wiped off his forehead was not obvious, and could only be discovered by looking carefully.
These are all secondary.

Thinking of this, Wen Xun'er remembered the look in Li Yunni's eyes when she left just now, and guessed that she should be the rescuer invited by Gu Yunzhi, otherwise, how could the queen let concubine Yue cry and not check the emperor's situation carefully!
Anyway, fortunately, it was safe and sound!
"Okay, let's all back down!" Wen Xun'er ordered the palace people to go out, and then Wen Xun'er helped Concubine Yue up, "Auntie, can you remember my technique just now?"
Concubine Yue wiped the corners of her eyes, returned to her usual look, and nodded.
"Are you afraid?"
Wen Xun'er nodded: "There are so many changes in the palace today, it's hard to guarantee what will happen in the next moment, if I can't get away for a while, aunt can do it too!"
Concubine Yue nodded: "Don't worry."
The difference from Wen Xun'er is that she has been in the palace for many years, she has a basic knowledge of embroidery, and she can hold a needle very steadily.
For three consecutive days, after they bled the emperor every day, the emperor's complexion gradually improved.
Concubine Yue was delighted, and she became more attentive in serving the emperor.
And the imperial doctor who came to take the pulse every day didn't know if it was settled by Gu Yunzhi. Anyway, after the pulse was checked every day, he lifted the curtain and took a look at the emperor's face, then took the medicine box out, and said nothing else, naturally, There is no bad news coming from outside.
After a few more days of living in peace, Wen Xun'er had nothing to do this day, playing with parrots on the porch, and happened to see a few palace officials gossiping on the other side.
"Have you heard? This time, the rebels are on the verge of coming, and they have already occupied several towns outside the city!"
Wen Xun'er's eyelids twitched, and he moved close to the wall.

"really?"
"It's absolutely true, what the palace people outside said just now! If even the palace people in the palace know about this, it's not a trivial matter!"
She recalled what Xiao Jiwei said earlier that the eldest prince would be too busy to touch the ground, presumably this was what she was referring to.

On the other side, Sude Palace.
After listening to his subordinate's report, the eldest prince was so angry that he smashed the cup in his hand to pieces!
"This group of damned bandits! They took advantage of this moment to rebel, they really have a good plan!"
"Your Highness, the most urgent task is to put down the rebellion as soon as possible! Although the rebels outside the city are temporarily garrisoned, there will be no big storms for a while, but if the situation is allowed to develop like this, it will be more difficult to control.

Gu Qiang slapped the table hard, his face turned blue with anger.
"This subordinate feels that the most important thing right now is to get the jade seal as soon as possible!" Another person suggested, "If the jade seal is not in His Royal Highness's hands for a day, His Highness is just a supervisor of the country, and the rebellion is getting worse.

"If not, why don't young master Xiao go? He has always been good at talking, and he is naturally the best candidate for recruiting security!"
The eldest prince heard the words and looked at Xiao Jiwei: "What do you think?"
Xiao Jiwei swept across the crowd, and took a step forward, "No matter how good the words are, they can't compare to sincerity. For this matter, if His Royal Highness goes there in person and promises them a stable life, that is the most beneficial way to recruit them!"
"You mean, you want me to go there in person?"
"Exactly!"

"That's right. At such a moment, the eldest prince should sit in the guard palace. How can he take such a risk?"
Gu Qiang swept across the crowd, looked at Xiao Jiwei again, his eyes darkened: "Besides sincerity, there should be other reasons!"
Xiao Jiwei explained the benefits of Gu Qiang's going there one by one.
"In addition to expressing sincerity, of course, as the adults said, there are risks and courage!" He looked at several officials, "Although His Highness is temporarily in control of the court, all the adults know that His Highness does not have a jade seal in his hands. The powerful ministers are still far away and have not returned. In other words, the eldest prince is currently unstable and may be overthrown at any time. One must find the jade seal, but the other should also be shown to those courtiers who have not surrendered. It's time for courage and courage!"
He bowed to Gu Qiang: "If His Highness can personally recruit the bandits under such a situation, His Highness's courage and courage will naturally be known to these courtiers in the future, and they will eventually refuse to surrender now, but once His Highness is honored On the day of ascending to the Great Treasure, isn’t it a matter of time before one surrenders?”
"But even if His Highness doesn't personally recruit, as long as they take the jade seal, will they still submit? Is it possible that they still dare to resist?"
Xiao Jiwei smiled, "Convinced or oral are two different things."
"Just do it like this!" Gu Qiang suddenly made a final decision, "Song Lian, you go to deal with the travel matters of the palace, as for Yuxi..." He looked at Xiao Jiwei, "Jiwei, since the one in Yuehua Palace is your wife, then Ben Gong will leave this matter to you! You must not let Ben Gong down!"
Xiao Jiwei hurriedly bowed: "I will definitely live up to His Highness's trust!"
When everyone left, Gu Qiang kept Xiao Jiwei behind him, walked up to him, looked at him carefully, his eyebrows and eyes were full of satisfaction: "Fortunately, I left you that day, otherwise I would miss a good general today!"
"Your Highness's praise!" Xiao Jiwei expressed his humility.
"Don't worry, when I ascend the Great Treasure in the future, I will definitely not treat you badly!"
Having said this, the First Prince laughed out loud.
Moon Palace.
Ever since the eldest prince brought people out of the palace, the dark cloud covering the entire palace finally dissipated a lot.
For the past two months, the entire imperial palace has been in panic, and they dare not take a breather when doing things, because they are afraid that someone will accidentally offend the master. Now that the eldest prince is leaving the palace, everyone only feels that the big rock hanging in their hearts has finally dissipated, and one or two are rare. relax.
When Xiao Jiwei came to Yuehua Palace, the guards at the gate of the palace were obviously not as strict as before, and there were even two people missing.
"Master Xiao!" Yin Su came out to meet him.
Xiao Jiwei nodded lightly: "I'll come and see the emperor!"
Yin Su led Xiao Jiwei into the room, and as soon as he entered the room, he smelled a faint smell of medicine, and when he went further in, he saw Wen Xun'er nestled beside Concubine Yue, watching her embroider.
"Concubine Yue, Miss Wen, Mr. Xiao is here!"
Concubine Yue touched Wen Xun'er beside her: "I'm looking for you!"
Only then did Wen Xun'er see Xiao Jiwei.
She stood up immediately: "Why are you here?"
Seeing Yin Su by the side, she didn't stop her, Wen Xun'er immediately guessed something, and went forward: "Shall I come and see the emperor? I'll lead you there!"
She took Xiao Jiwei to the inner hall, but Yin Su did not follow.
Wen Xun'er lowered his voice and approached him: "Is the thing you pointed out last time a bandit..."
"Come into my arms after not seeing you for a few days, how much do you miss me?" Xiao Jiwei suddenly held her head and brought her into his arms, and Wen Xun'er's words were swallowed back into his throat.
"Speak these words later!" He lowered his voice to Wen Xun'er's ear, and then glanced outside.
Yin Su was staring at them there, seeing him turning back, suddenly felt that his presence was abrupt, so he took a few steps back.
Wen Xun'er happened to see the back of her leaving.
When she came to her senses, she didn't dare to ask again.
"How is the emperor?"
Wen Xun'er opened the curtain to show him: "It's much better already!"
Speaking of this, there was a slight twitch between her brows and eyes. Xiao Jiwei knew that she must have something else to say, but the current situation couldn't say it.
"come over!"
"What for?" Wen Xun'er looked at his outstretched hand with strange eyes!
Xiao Jiwei took a step forward, took her hand, and said in a low voice, "If you don't get closer to me, how can we be alone?"
Wen Xun'er understood.
In the eyes of outsiders, they are newlyweds after all, and it's normal to be inseparable, otherwise they won't look like a couple at all!
Therefore, when he and Xiao Jiwei walked out arm in arm, Yin Su's guarded look disappeared a lot.
"Auntie, can I borrow the side hall? Let me have a few words with my young lady."
Yin Su's eyes were clear, and there was a smile on his face: "Young Master Xiao, please follow me!"
Yuehua Palace is not too big, but there are countless rooms.
Yin Su led the two of them to the door on the west side: "You two, please go ahead, the slaves will not follow in!"
Xiao Jiwei dragged Wen Xun'er into the house.
As soon as the two entered, the door that had just been closed slammed, as if someone had bumped into it, Yin Su turned around strangely, understood something for a moment, and then walked a little further.
Wen Xun'er looked outside through the crack of the door, and breathed a sigh of relief: "It seems that the eldest prince trusts you, otherwise it would be impossible for me to come out alone with you!"
"He kind of believes me, but the eldest prince is suspicious by nature, so it's better to be careful!" Having said that, he looked at Wen Xun'er, "What did you want to say just now?"
"Just now?" Wen Xun'er remembered what he was referring to, and then lowered his voice: "Yesterday, when my aunt was wiping the emperor's body, she found that the emperor's fingers moved. Thinking about it, the daily bloodletting treatment has a great effect !"
Xiao Jiwei nodded: "As soon as the emperor wakes up, you immediately ask him to issue an imperial edict. The troops stationed outside the city will only obey the imperial edict. At that time, they only need to cooperate internally and externally, and they can plan the eldest prince's wishful thinking!"
Wen Xun'er nodded, full of confidence: "Did you do those bandits and rebels?"
