Half river and half river red

Xia Ruyue, who returned to Suoyun City, was free again. He was patrolling the city that day, and an urgent report was delivered to him.When Zhan Xin saw it, Xia Ruyue couldn't help but sneered, and praised repeatedly: "Okay, good, good. Xia Ruyu has really lost his head." Seeing Jing Lian's curiosity, he said: "Xia Ruyu can't bear his temper. Already, add Shen Xuemu to father's nourishing soup."

"Shen Xuemu is not poisonous."

"Shen Xuemu is non-toxic, but the imperial doctor's soup contains ebony grass. The combination of these two flavors is intoxicating, and it is colorless and tasteless, so it is difficult to detect."

"Then you won't expose him?"

"Reveal? The handle he gave me, if I don't hold it, how can I be worthy of him."

Jing Lian narrowed his eyes, unable to understand.Perhaps the supremacy of royal interests and weak family ties are the norm, intrigue and intrigue are the norm, and framing and framing are the norm.But as an ordinary person, in his opinion, a loving father and son, filial piety, and happiness are the conditions that a family should have, not like him, who even sacrificed his father's life for the sake of calculation.

Xia Ruyue noticed Jing Lian's reaction, but he couldn't explain it, so he could only smile wryly.He couldn't tell him how cruel it was to be born in the royal family. There is no bond of family affection between brothers, only the cooperation and hostility of interests; there is no love entanglement between parents, only temptation and betrayal by use; there is no warmth between mother and child There is only the glory and burden of striving for success.There may be true love between father and son, but with so many children, some are destined to be neglected while others are favored.Jing Lian had never felt the cruelty of the royal family, so of course he couldn't understand it.

"Xia Ruyu began to administer the medicine half a month ago, which means that my father has at most two months to live. Time is tight, I will send Qinghuan and Fangzhou back first. We will set off in a month's time."

It was late May in a blink of an eye, and the atmosphere in the palace was very tense. Both the maids and the eunuchs were soft-spoken and soft-spoken, for fear of being dragged out and beheaded.In recent days, the tempers of all the empresses are not small, and there are no voices in the palaces, and it is very quiet. This is because the emperor is critically ill.

The emperor has been dizzy and dizzy since two months ago, and he often faints. Recently, his headaches have worsened, and he is bedridden. He is about to die.A few humerus ministers risked their lives to remonstrate, hoping that the emperor would quickly set up a heir, in case there would be no successors, and the princes would fight to the death.

The emperor was already very weak, he was breathing in but not getting out, so he ordered his attendant father-in-law, "Bring a pen and paper, I want to draw up an order." A minister asked tremblingly, "May I ask who the emperor wants to pass on?"

The emperor became short of breath, "The boss is useless. The second is indecisive, not the material to take on big things. The third is talented, but too cruel. If he takes the throne, my other sons will not die well. The fourth is not. Thoughts. Only the fifth...cough cough, cough cough." As he spoke, the emperor coughed, coughing and coughing suddenly became violent again, unable to speak, and waved for someone to bring water.

Someone at the side handed over a spittoon, the emperor coughed a few times, and actually coughed up a lot of blood.Someone hurriedly brought tea to the emperor to rinse his mouth.

After Shushu, the emperor rested on the cushion, and said: "The old fifth soldier is rare and stable. He is thoughtful and considerate of the overall situation. The most important thing is that when he ascends the throne, his brothers and younger brothers can do it well." Good life."
