I run a newspaper in ancient times

The capital seemed a little restless because of the spring hunting. This was the first time in the past few years that Emperor Yan left the palace in such a mobilizing way.

Most of the dignitaries and even the female relatives will go together, and now everyone is paying attention to this.

Prince Yi's Mansion

The butler was holding Dong Lai's list of luggage and asked the mansion to pack it up ahead of time.

His family's prince is extremely delicate, and he travels in a set of outfits, but he must be careful and thorough. If he misses something and makes the prince unhappy, it will be his negligence.

By the way, in addition to this, you have to prepare for the general.

In the study on the other side, Li Li was asking Xi Qu: "It's only been a few days since Spring Hunting, so there's no movement between Zhou and Shen?"

Going to the west, he said: "The Zuoxiang Mansion is the same as usual. The Minister of the Household Department and several other adults went there diligently. In addition, they still have secret contacts with the Daxia Mission. As for the Marquis of Wuning Mansion, Young Master Shen has already taken people to Linshan The paddock, the guards in the paddock have been transferred obviously."

Now that Zhou Chen is outraged, saying that they didn't do anything during the spring hunt, Li Li doesn't believe it at all.

"There is another matter. In the Jijiazhuang outside the city, many people from the Jianghu lived here."

"Outside the city?"

"Yes, I heard that the [-]th birthday of the mother of the owner of the Ji family has invited martial arts heroes to congratulate her. She is staying here temporarily, but her actions are very secretive."

Li Li stroked his chin and suddenly felt a little interesting: "Not going to Beijing, but staying outside the city in a secretive way. Who are these people here?"

"Most of them have faces, but the servants found out that some of them are wanted criminals in the official notice, and they make a living by offering rewards for murder."

"Yo! It's a scumbag!"

Xi Qu nodded, he thought so too.

"My lord, although the slaves haven't found out whether Zhou Chen is related to them, please be careful and bring more people with you when you travel." He didn't say it clearly, but he was afraid that these people who wanted money and life were aimed at Li Li to go.

At the beginning, Yuan Meiqing risked his wealth and attracted many desperadoes to chase and kill Yunxi and the others. If Fan Zhiyuan hadn't led the elite to respond, the Yunzhou case would not have gone so smoothly.

For this spring hunt, Emperor Yan handed over the matter to Marquis Wu Ning, and almost all of them belonged to them. It was too easy to put these assassins in without anyone noticing, waiting for the opportunity to move.

Ancient siege hunting was originally a business card field for assassination, otherwise why Wu Ninghou was making such a fuss?

"It seems that they are going to greet me." Li Li pouted, not very happy.

At this time, Emperor Yan will definitely not be assassinated, otherwise he will make a wedding dress for Li Li.

"During the spring hunting, there are many people in disorder, please don't leave too far away from General Fan, and don't act alone." With Fan Zhiyuan around, no amount of killers will help. I have seen it before going west.

"But his main responsibility is to protect the emperor, and he can't let me cling to him anytime and anywhere." Speaking of Fan Zhiyuan, Li Li suddenly remembered, and asked as soon as the fan hit him, "By the way, that one was seriously injured by my general and has been lying in bed for a long time. How is General Wang Xin?"

Qingchun Palace

Emperor Yan handed Shi Yu a piece of clothing.

Shi Yu took it in bewilderment and spread it out for a look, with a strange expression on his face, the size and style are obviously for men.

The satin is light, thin and silky. Although it is pure white in color, under the candlelight, there are auspicious clouds and dark patterns flowing between the slight shaking. It can be seen that it is an extremely high-quality material. It is not common outside, and there are certain numbers in the palace.

Shi Yu had a guess in her mind, but she still asked, "Your Majesty, where did this come from?"

"It was done by the queen mother."

Emperor Yan couldn't tell whether he was happy or unhappy, but being able to wear clothes made by his mother was a joy in itself, but...

After hearing this, Shi Yu immediately knew that there was another story in it, and it might have something to do with the court and the Queen Mother, so Li Li was the only one.

She pretended not to know, took the underwear, and exclaimed: "I really can't tell, the empress dowager is so good! Look at the fine stitches, even ordinary embroiderers can't compare, and the concubine still can't make a piece of it." A decent dress."

Shi Yu was a talented lady before her disaster, and she didn't touch needles and threads. After her disaster, she was a coolie doing laundry and cleaning, and she couldn't touch needles and threads.

Shi Yu's admiration made Emperor Yan follow Shen Mou, and his tone softened and said: "I have to learn in the days of the cold palace, and the queen mother has suffered a lot."

Shi Yu said: "So that's the case. No wonder sometimes when I visit the Queen Mother, I see her squinting, and she seems a little confused."

"I've been doing needlework for a long time, and it's easy to damage my eyes, not to mention getting older..." Emperor Yan was stunned as he spoke, and then curled the corners of his mouth.

He took the underwear and stroked it lightly, his face seemed moved.

At such an old age, even making clothes for him with her own hands, even if the Empress Dowager hopes that Emperor Yan will be more lenient to his younger brother, it is a kind mother's heart and human nature.

Shi Yu pursed her lips and smiled, and continued to ask curiously: "The Empress Dowager sent the clothes, did you say anything?"

Emperor Yan shook his head: "Just tried the size, Funing was satisfied and went back."

"The palms and backs of the hands are all flesh, and it's not easy for the Queen Mother." Shi Yu sighed softly, "It's not light, it's not heavy."

These words penetrated Emperor Yan's heart. Although he had resentment towards Li Li, he was not really cold-hearted and heartless.

Besides, is the gap between brothers really Li Li's fault?

Is he disrespecting his elder brother and the emperor?

No matter how Emperor Yan used this reason to comfort himself, in the dead of night he recalled the confession, he was very clear that it was only because he couldn't do it himself, so he longed for the help of others, but once others succeeded, he was afraid that he would not be able to hold on to it, and in the end it was because of his courage. It's just a small incompetence.

The Empress Dowager and Li Li have lived together for many years, Emperor Yan took it for granted that the Empress Dowager cared more about the youngest son, and if he had to choose, he would definitely abandon him.

But I never thought that if the queen mother really doesn't care, she can help Li Li suppress him with filial piety, no need to be tough, just ask Li Li's help to him over the years, or use a loving mother's heart Begging again and again, he must only give in one step.

However, in the end, the Queen Mother just made a piece of clothing with her own hands, but she didn't speak.

Although this has the meaning of persuading him to care about his brotherhood, isn't it a heartache that he can't bear to persecute?

"Ayu, I seem to be paranoid, and the Queen Mother also cares about me." Emperor Yan held Shi Yu's hand.

Shi Yu said softly: "It's natural, the emperor just didn't understand it for a while."

"Now, I think clearly." Emperor Yan looked up at her and asked, "Are you also in trouble these few days?"

Shi Yu was able to stay in the palace because of Li Li's great efforts, otherwise why would suddenly several young ladies unite to help Shi Yu get through?

Shi Yu smiled slightly, and said meekly: "No embarrassment, what the emperor thinks, Ah Yu thinks. I just hope that the emperor will not affect the brotherhood because of misunderstanding."

Hearing this, the smile in Emperor Yan's eyes suddenly widened, he looked at Shi Yu with strange eyes, and said slowly: "A Yu is really kind and considerate, no wonder A Li treats you like a real sister."

Shi Yu was taken aback when he heard the words: "Your Majesty?"

Emperor Yan held Shi Yu's hand, and said in a gentle manner as if chatting: "Of course I care about the brotherhood, but this is probably the fate of the royal family. A Li is my most beloved younger brother, no matter what happens in the end, I will never kill him, A Yu and the queen mother can rest assured."

At that moment, Shi Yu's heart suddenly turned cold.

She tried hard to control her expression and asked, "May I ask who did the emperor meet today?"

Emperor Yan didn't hide anything: "Not long after Funing left, the queen came. Although the queen mother didn't say anything, the queen told me that the queen mother stayed up for three nights in order to make this clothes. I thought about it. The time for separation seems to be at that time, and the queen mother really bothered."

Shi Yu couldn't bear it anymore and said: "The emperor can't understand the empress' innuendo?"

"Understood, but Ah Yu, she is right, even you are facing him."

"I'm toward you!" Shi Yu's eyes flashed with tears.

Emperor Yan smiled lightly: "Ayu, you are so smart, why don't you understand that I don't want to hear it?"

After Emperor Yan finished speaking, he picked her up and walked towards the bed.

Shi Yu immediately struggled: "Don't..."

Shi Yu struggled so hard that Emperor Yan could hardly hug her, and it would hurt her, so he could only let go of his hand, frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"

"The concubine is inconvenient these days."

Emperor Yan looked at her with a vague expression: "Delayed for a few days, is it still here?"

Shi Yu was stunned for a moment, and blurted out: "How does the emperor know?"

Emperor Yan didn't answer, but the meaning was self-evident.

His eyes were gloomy, and he couldn't help muttering to himself: "It's been so long since I stopped taking the medicine, every time I count the days, I'm still not pregnant..."

Shi Yu couldn't hear it clearly, and asked, "What medicine?"

Emperor Yan looked at Shi Yu with a storm brewing in his eyes, he didn't answer, but his gloomy expression made people shudder.

Before there were rumors that he had a hidden disease, Emperor Yan didn't take it seriously, because he knew the reason.

But he and Shi Yuhuan have been in a state of withdrawal from the drug, according to the time calculated by the imperial physician, but there is still no movement so far.

Shi Yu herself didn't know, but Emperor Yan paid attention to her situation.

In the early days, Shi Yu's menstruation was always not on time due to exhaustion, and it was normal for her not to be able to conceive.

However, it has been taken care of for several months. Judging from the records in the notebook room, it should have been recuperated within three days before and after, but there is still no movement!

Not even other concubines!

Does this mean that he really has no way to leave an heir?

Thinking of this, Emperor Yan even began to tremble slightly with his hands.

"You have a good rest tonight, I'm going back." After he finished speaking, he never looked at Shi Yu again, and before he even had time to take the clothes made by the queen mother, he strode away, his back seemed to be running away.

Shi Yu stared blankly at the direction Yu Jia was leaving, and suddenly covered her face and began to cry, she herself didn't know why things turned out like this.

"Miss?"

"Xiaoxia, go to the memo room and take a note. I have been withdrawn from my bedside service these few days." Shi Yu ordered.

"Yes."
