Funing Hall

In the middle of the night, Zhao Shiqi reluctantly let go of Zhao Cong's body, and the two lay side by side on the bed.Zhao Cong waited for a long time before slowly opening his eyes, and poked Zhao Shiqi's hand feebly: "Go and call the imperial doctor."

Zhao Shiqi held his hand behind his back, caught his hand and kissed him for a long time.

Zhao Cong let him kiss him for a while, then poked his lips with his fingers again, and said again: "Go and call."

Zhao Shiqi let out a "hmm" and stood up reluctantly.He got up, sat on the edge of the bed, and suddenly turned around, Zhao Cong was so tired that he had closed his eyes again.His hands had already been covered under the quilt, his whole body was covered tightly, only a little bit of his neck was exposed, but it was more radiant than the white jade hook on the curtain.

Zhao Cong's hair covered the entire pillow and bedding.Black hair, bright red bedding, and the white Zhao Cong.

Just lying down casually is like a priceless scroll.

It's better than anything he's ever painted.

No matter how beautiful the painting is, it is not as good as people.

He lowered his head and got up slowly, the intertwined strands of his hair and Zhao Cong's were gradually separated.Until he stood up straight, his hair completely left the bed.

He sighed secretly, raised his foot and went out to call for someone.

Zhao Cong's health is not good, it is born with it, and his constitution cannot be changed.Although these few years are still as weak as in previous years, but since he was a teenager, he often ate tonic soup for conditioning, and he has adapted to the current life, after all, he seldom falls ill.Unlike before, almost all the imperial doctors were on standby in the palace, and they could arrive at any time in case His Majesty was not in good health.In the past year, they resumed their normal shift system. At night, only three imperial doctors were on duty in the palace.

Zhao Cong's body is often seen by Doctor Bai.

It's also a coincidence that Dr. Bai has a heavy responsibility, and he is always there among the three on-duty imperial doctors.But today his eldest son got married, so he specially asked for leave to go home to attend his son's wedding, and he is not in the palace today.

The other two people on duty rushed to Funing Hall, but the official Fu still felt that it was not enough, so he specially opened the palace door and went to call Doctor Bai into the palace overnight.Moreover, after he entered the palace, he stayed all night, and did not return home at dawn.

Bai Dalang woke up early in the morning and was going to visit his parents and relatives with his bride, but his father was not there...

Ask again, my father was called into the palace last night.

When he got married, his relatives gathered together, and they were all big families, and each family had relatives.Before noon, everyone knew that His Majesty fell ill.Doctor Bai entered the palace overnight, and he still hasn't come out until now!

Since His Majesty fell ill, the court meeting was canceled accordingly.

Senior Officer Fu personally went to the side hall of the Chuigong Hall to explain the situation to the adults, please go back, and said that His Majesty is not feeling well, the court meeting for the next few days is temporarily canceled, and His Majesty will not be able to see you in the Chongzheng Hall.For important matters in the past few days, everyone can first report to the two prime ministers, Qian Shang and Huang Shu, and if it is really important, then pass it to the palace.

After hearing this, the ministers expressed their concerns in every possible way before leaving the palace and going home.

Zhao Zongning heard that his elder brother was ill, so he immediately entered the palace, and he didn't want to sit in the carriage, so he put on a man's clothes directly, got on his horse and drove to the palace.

Before Zhao Cong pretended to be sick, he called Huang Shu and Qian Shang to him, but he didn't say that he wanted to go to Taiyuan by pretending to be sick.He only said that Jiang Wei and Wan Yanliang were dishonest, and that things might change, so he told them to be careful and to think of some countermeasures.

Now His Majesty is ill, Huang Shu still thinks His Majesty is worried about this matter, he has a bad temper, as soon as he leaves the palace, he is in his carriage, scolding Wan Yanliang and Jiang Wei to their heart's content, in his mouth Among them, those two are two dogs.

Money merchants are old gods, just like in the past.

Zhao Cong didn't tell the truth to the two of them, but he would never lie to Xiao Shiyi and his sister no matter what.

After Zhao Zongning entered the palace, Zhao Cong told her about his plan.

Zhao Zongning was naturally worried about letting him go alone, and insisted on following, and said: "He wants to stay in Kaifeng to take care of things, I'm fine! I'll wear men's clothing and pretend to be your bodyguard!" "He" refers to Zhao Shiqi, Zhao Zongning still refuses to call him by his name.

Zhao Cong had no choice but to refuse: "I have dealt with Jiang Wei, and then settled Wan Yanliang's matter, and I will give you a marriage when I come back. You should prepare for marriage."

Zhao Zongning refused, but Zhao Cong firmly refused.Zhao Zongning looked at Zhao Shiqi bitterly, expecting him to help.Zhao Shiqi wished that Zhao Zongning would follow him. One more person would take care of Zhao Cong, so he would be less worried.But he knew how stubborn Zhao Cong was.

He turned to persuade Zhao Zongning, but the two quarreled again.

Zhao Cong was amused, and even said with a smile: "You two are just arguing like this, time flies, after ten days of arguing, I will be back."

"..."

The two of them stared at him dumbfounded, can they still count like this? !

All in all, at night, Zhao Cong took Rantao, Lu Yuan, and his personal guards on the way to Taiyuan.

Fu Lu is Zhao Cong's personal eunuch, there are always some things that he needs to do, he can't do without, this scene needs his cooperation.

Shao Yi also knew the truth, but he didn't follow him. Zhao Cong went forward and told Shao Yi: "Yi Yuguan is there, as usual, no one can see him, no one can."

Shao Yi bowed his hand in response.

Zhao Cong walked quietly, no one knew about it except those who were very close to him, his cronies and confidantes.

In order to avoid suspicion, when he left, Zhao Shiqi was not able to give him a gift.

As soon as Zhao Cong's convoy left Tokyo, Zhao Shiqi hurriedly called Mu Fu to him, and ordered Mu Fu to bring everyone in Kaifeng Mansion with him and follow Zhao Cong all the way.

Zhao Shiqi confessed: "You guys are the best at hiding and hiding your whereabouts. Be vigilant on the way there, and be more cautious than his personal guards. Send a letter to me every day, and if something happens, immediately send If you come back quickly, the road is not far away, no matter where you go, you can get there within a day."

Mu Fu didn't make any promises, just agreed.

Zhao Shiqi knew that Mu Fu was the most appropriate person.With Mu Fu following all the way, he can feel more at ease.

After explaining, Mu Fu led his people and followed Zhao Cong away.

Zhao Shiqi felt empty.

Obviously, Tokyo City is still the same Tokyo City, and even the Imperial Palace is still the same as before.

He wandered around the street alone, bored, turned back to the palace.

In the palace, in the Hall of Funing, "Your Majesty is still ill", Rantao left with Zhao Cong, and now it is Cha Xi who "serves on Your Majesty" in the inner room.Cha Xi knew about it. Seeing Zhao Shiqi come back, he looked around carefully before asking softly, "Mr. Lang, is Your Majesty out of the city?"

"Ah."

"Your Majesty, are you hungry? The maid asked someone to serve you a bowl of noodles?"

Zhao Shiqi waved his hands and said listlessly: "Go down, I will stay alone for a while."

Chaxi didn't ask any more questions, and was blessed, turned around and walked out of the inner room. Outside the door, she told the little maid: "Your Majesty is inside to accompany His Majesty, don't bother any of you."

The little maids agreed, and she went to the dining room.

Zhao Shiqi lingered in the inner room for a long time, but still couldn't find anything to do, so he walked to the bedside without realizing it.

In order to prevent any little maids from entering by mistake, the curtains are drawn, and the quilts on the bed are also unfolded.Zhao Shiqi sat by the bed and reached out to pat the quilt.Zhao Cong had only been away for a few hours, and he was a little restless, what should he do for the rest of the day?

Why is he so clingy now?He not only despises himself like this, but also feels that he is not wrong.

He sat by the bed for a long time, until Cha Xi asked him to eat noodles.

He hadn't eaten for five hours, only when he heard the words did he realize that he was hungry, he opened the curtain and was about to get up.Through the light outside the tent, he suddenly saw a light flash on the pillow.He turned quickly, groping, twisting a hair from the pillow.

It is long, jet black, and hard.

It's Zhao Cong's hair.

Zhao Shiqi wrapped his fingers around a few times, wrapped them around his fingers, walked out of the curtain, asked for a purse, and wanted the best one.

Chaxi happened to be ready, so she immediately brought a brocade box, opened it and said with a smile, "The servant girl just made two of them! I prepared one for His Majesty's birthday, and I also made one for Lang Jun. Look, this sky blue one It is yours, and the scarlet one belongs to His Majesty!"

Zhao Shiqi picked up two purses from the brocade box.

Cha Xi invites credit: "How?"

Chaxi has always been very lively, and the purse is really good.Zhao Shiqi smiled and tore off the purse he was wearing around his waist, and handed it to her: "It's all yours."

Chaxi thanked and thanked again and again with a smile, put away the purse, and shared it with the rest of the maids when they returned.

She urged again: "Your Majesty, let's eat."

"Wait a minute." After Zhao Shiqi finished speaking, he turned around and walked back into the inner room.

Cha Xi didn't keep up either, and went out to watch the food.

Zhao Shiqi walked into the inner room, carefully coiled Zhao Cong's hair, and put it in the azure purse.Afterwards, he tore another hair from his head, wrapped it around, stuffed it into Zhao Cong's vermilion purse, and pressed it under Zhao Cong's pillow.

As for his own, he kept it carefully in his sleeve.

After he finished these things, he suddenly woke up from a dream. What did he do just now? !

He, Zhao Shiqi, how could he do such a touching thing!But if he went to get it back again, he was even more unwilling.

He simply strode out of the inner room quickly, but on the way, he couldn't help reaching into his sleeve to touch his purse, and finally showed a silly smile that he didn't notice.

After Zhao Cong left, there was no major event in Beijing.

The day after he left was the Ruiqing Festival, which was going to be a three-day holiday, and it was the first time in the 11 years since Zhao Cong took the throne, no matter what happened in the court, it had been taken care of in the past few days.In the past few days, no one would dare to bother His Majesty with matters.

But the problem came along, His Majesty was ill, can this birthday ceremony still be done?

Originally, Zhao Cong didn't plan to make a big deal, but if he didn't, the officials in the capital, the officials in the palace, and some envoys who came to Kaifeng would always go to the palace to congratulate him on his birthday.There is always a banquet to be held in the palace, so what should I do now?

There was no word in the palace.

The officials of Taichang Temple and the Ministry of Rites did not dare to wait any longer, and went to the palace to see His Majesty.

His Majesty was sick and didn't see them. It was Zhao Shiqi who saw them.Zhao Shiqi was in charge, and he only asked the clan, various officials and envoys to enter the palace, kneel down and congratulate in the direction of Funing Hall in Zichen Hall.He also said that although His Majesty is ill, the people will not be affected, and the Beijing and Central should continue to be lively.

These days, there have been turmoil in Beijing, and Zhao Shiqi's reputation has been affected. Just the day before His Majesty fell ill, someone in the court asked His Majesty to abolish the position of heir to the Eleventh Prince of the Wei County Prince's Mansion.The reasons are all ready-made. It was established too hastily when it was originally established. Now that this person has misbehavior, he wants to abolish it.

Zhao Cong ignored it.It was also a coincidence that His Majesty fell ill the next day.

At this moment, several people thought in their hearts, is His Majesty getting angry from repeated performances these days?

They didn't dare to ask more questions, and saw that the eunuch Fu Lu standing in front of His Majesty was standing behind Zhao Shiqi, respectful.Obviously this is what His Majesty meant, they bowed their hands and turned to leave.

The matter of the Ruiqing Festival was settled in this way.

On that day, the clan was headed by King Huijun Zhao Kelu, all officials were headed by Qian Shang and Huang Shu, and the envoys were headed by Tubo envoys who came from afar. Leaving the palace one by one.

In the palace, Qian Yuemo entertained the clan's family members and foreign wives, received their gifts, and left early.

This time, Qian Yuemo didn't know the truth.It's just that she knows that His Majesty is being taken care of by Lord Eleven, so she doesn't go to Funing Hall easily.After everyone dispersed, she looked out of the hall again with some disappointment.

Piao Shu brought a cup of tea in front of her, and said softly: "Miss, drink some sweet tea, boiled with fruit."

Qian Yuemo didn't take it, but asked softly: "Has the princess not come yet?"

"The princess will go to the Palace of Funing as soon as she enters the palace today. It's at His Majesty's place." Piao Shu said, thinking that she felt uncomfortable because His Majesty didn't see her, and comforted her, "The princess is His Majesty's own sister, Your Majesty wants to See her. Ma'am, don't feel bad, with His Majesty, besides the princess and Eleventh Prince, you are the only one!"

Qian Yuemo smiled wryly, what did she care about.

She laughed, and was about to ask other questions, when a little maid came in from outside and said: "Lady, someone came from Madam Tian's place, saying that Madam Tian is not feeling well, and wants to invite an imperial doctor to take a look."

Usually, if the body is unwell, it is very cheap for the concubines to ask an imperial doctor.It's just that these days, His Majesty's health is not good, and almost all the imperial doctors are waiting in the Palace of Funing.

Even so, it was only a matter of one sentence, but Qian Yuemo frowned lightly: "Madam Tian is not in good health yet?"

Piaoshu held the tray in his hand, nodded, and said in surprise: "So, it's true, Mrs. Tian seems to have been ill for a long time."

This is the Ruiqing Festival, His Majesty's health is not good, and they dare not announce that the concubine is seriously ill.

"Usually, some imperial doctor will take care of her body, so let him go, don't let His Majesty know."

"Yes."

"After the Ruiqing Festival, I will go and see her in person."

Piaoshu nodded, turned around and went to invite the imperial doctor.

With such an interruption, Qian Yuemo also forgot to be sad, and started doing other things instead.
