"No need, just let me go!"

If the emperor collapsed yesterday because he didn't meet the regent, he was in despair today.

Eunuch Gao knew that it was useless to say anything, and he didn't plan to persuade her anymore. He thought that as long as the prince came, everything would be fine.

"Then I will stand guard outside while your Majesty rests for a while."

After waiting for a long time without getting a response, Eunuch Gao sighed again and retreated. Seeing that the sun was already high in the sky and he still hadn't seen his apprentice come back, he became even more uncertain.

Is it true that His Majesty is not worried when he hears that His Majesty is on a hunger strike?

Thinking of this, Eunuch Gao became panicked. If this was true, the Emperor would probably really want to live in a different world!

However, Xiao Shunzi, who was even more anxious than him, had been standing in the front yard for almost a whole morning, but he didn't even see the shadow of the Regent. In the middle of winter, his forehead was covered with sweat.

"I wonder how Master is doing?"

Xiao Shunzi was still thinking about his master. Before, he was only thinking about what reason he could use to invite the prince into the palace, but he never thought about what to do if he couldn't see the prince!

"Hasn't anyone left yet?"

In the study, after having breakfast, Si Xuan returned to the study. He had to prepare things needed for the wedding, so he was really busy.

"My Lord, he hasn't left yet. He seems to be quite anxious."

Shadow answered truthfully.

Hearing this, Si Xuan was a little confused. Could something really have happened?

"Go and bring the person here."

Shadow took the order and quickly brought the person over.

"Your servant greets His Majesty. May His Majesty live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years!"

Xiao Shunzi knelt on the ground with a plop. He finally saw the prince, wuwuwu...

"What's the matter?"

When Si Xuan looked at him like this, the corners of his eyes twitched a few times. Wasn't it too exaggerated?

"Your Majesty, please go and see His Majesty. His Majesty has not eaten all day and stayed up all night last night."

Xiao Shunzi thought about it and added another sentence, saying that this way the chances of success might be greater.

"Why?"

Now Xiao Shunzi didn’t know how to answer. He didn’t know what was going on. This was what his master told him. How should he respond now?

"Your Highness, I don't know the specific reason. I just returned to the palace yesterday. It was Eunuch Gao who asked me to come and invite Your Highness."

Master, I'm sorry. I really have no other choice but to ask you to block it.

After Xiao Shunzi finished speaking, he apologized to his master in his heart.

After thinking for a moment, Si Xuan stood up and walked out.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

Xiao Shunzi was confused. What was going on? Why did the prince leave? What should he do?

"What are you still standing there for? Let's go?"

Shadow kindly reminded Xiao Shunzi, and then he realized that the prince was going to enter the palace. Thinking of this, he climbed up using his hands and feet and trotted after him.

In Qianfeng Palace, the moment Eunuch Gao saw the visitor, he was more excited than if he had seen a god. Even at his advanced age, he couldn't help but kneel down and pay his respects.

"This old servant has greeted the Prince Regent. May His Majesty live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years!"

"Eunuch Gao, there's no need to be so polite. Get up!"

"My Lord, you are finally here."

Eunuch Gao stood up, looked at the man in front of him, and began to cry, feeling scared and aggrieved.

This shocked the shadow behind him, who thought that the emperor might be dying.

"what happened?"

Si Xuan stared at him, thinking that the emperor was acting like a demon again and had forced everyone into this state.

"Your Majesty, yesterday..."

Eunuch Gao promptly told the whole story of what had happened since he came back yesterday. He was not worried about whether or not this would damage the Emperor's reputation. The Emperor had already humiliated himself like this, so what face did he have left?

This time, not only Shadow was stunned, but even our Regent's expression, which had remained unchanged for thousands of years, began to crack.

Without saying a word, he pushed the door open and walked in.

The emperor was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, his face was pale, and his hair was scratched into a mess by himself.

"Leave me alone and don't disturb me."

The emperor spoke weakly when he heard the footsteps, but the footsteps were getting closer and closer, and they didn't take his words seriously at all.

"Didn't you hear what I said? I told you to get out!"

The emperor was angry, thinking that he was not dead yet, but these people did not take him seriously.

"Your Majesty is so majestic!"

A voice that sounded intimidating without being angry suddenly came, and the emperor thought he was hallucinating. He suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the man standing on the side. He was instantly a little panicked.

I don't know where the energy came from, but I stood up quickly and didn't forget to tidy up my hair.

"Brother Jiu...Jiujiu, why are you here?"

The emperor spoke haltingly, as if he were a child who had done something wrong, and he did not dare to look at the man's face the whole time, because just now, he saw that his ninth brother seemed a little unhappy.

"If I don't come, what will the emperor do?"

Si Xuan was speechless. It had only been one day since they last saw each other, and look at what he had done to himself. How shameful!

"I...I..."

The emperor felt guilty and couldn't say anything.

"Does the emperor think that you killed my mother?"

Si Xuan stared at him, not allowing him to escape.

"Ninth brother, I, I was the one who harmed Concubine Yu's mother!"

The emperor finally spoke out his words, looking at the man in front of him with eyes full of guilt.

"Do you have a brain? Can't you see that this is the Queen Mother's conspiracy? She just doesn't want you and me to have an easy life, but you believe it."

"I didn't come yesterday because I thought you could understand things like this. I didn't expect that I overestimated you!"

"Do you want to torture yourself to death and keep the Queen Mother company on the road?"

Si Xuan felt that he was about to die of his stupidity. He pointed at the emperor and started to scold him, not even wanting to call him the emperor.

"Ninth brother, I..."

The emperor opened his mouth weakly to explain.

"What are you talking about? Look at what you have done. Is this something a king can do?"

"It seems that the emperor has really become more capable over the years. He has even learned tricks like hunger strike!"

Si Xuan didn't even give him a chance to speak. He thought that he had been too good to him over the years, and he had been living too carefree a life, not paying attention to state affairs, and had even learned some unusable tricks.

He was really pissed off.

"If you don't want to be the emperor, then pass the throne to the crown prince as soon as possible, so that the foundation of our ancestors won't be destroyed in your hands!"

"If it's possible, it's not impossible."

The emperor muttered quietly.

"What did the emperor say? Speak louder. I didn't hear you!"

The emperor immediately became cowardly again, "Ninth brother, do you really not hate your brother?"

Looking at the man whose face turned blue with anger, the emperor asked cautiously.

"It seems that all I have said is in vain, right?"

Si Xuan glanced at him and thought that he was really a rotten tree that could not be carved!
