and son

Meng Chuji's heart hurt from the sudden impact, his face was full of astonishment, and he watched the queen mother take out a decree from the side of the pillow.

"I have already sent people to find out all the reasons, and I understand that you have to do something for your sister and relatives. This is the edict I drafted. After I die, you will tell Jing'er the truth, take the edict to save your life, and leave Dasui quickly."

Meng Chuji didn't reach out to receive the edict, and was quite afraid, confused and numb, and asked helplessly, "Then I'm leaving, what should Qiu Yu do?"

Only then did he agree to him and said that he would not leave him. If he left, he would be very sad.

After all...he likes him so much.

"You don't need to worry about this. Jing'er has a strong mind. In time, she will be able to get out of the sadness and find a woman who treats him sincerely and join hands for a lifetime."

Every word of the Empress Dowager was like a sledgehammer with a heavy weight, smashing his heart until it was dripping with blood.

Meng Chuji forced a smile: "That's right, he is the prince, without me there are still thousands of miles of land."

The queen mother sent Yizhi to him, "This is the best decision for Jing'er, and it is also the best decision for you. I heard that your mother was seriously ill after you married in Dasui. Your father was always worried and worried. For your safety, the sooner you go back, the sooner you can be filial to their knees."

Meng Chuji curled up his fingers, slowly took Yizhi over, then kowtowed on the ground and said:

"Thank you, Empress Dowager, for your kindness."

……

Pei Jing went to Chaoyang Palace, the queen hadn't had breakfast yet.

Gillian was also there, saw him and asked, "Brother Prince, why hasn't sister-in-law come here yet?"

Pei Jing said: "He is talking to Grandma Huang."

When mentioning the queen mother, Gillian became sad again and didn't want to talk anymore.

It was the queen who patted A-Jiao's head and asked Pei Jing, "Have you had breakfast since you entered the palace early in the morning?"

Pei Jing shook her head, the queen showed a look of expectation, and said: "Guess you will come to visit your grandma this morning, and I can't take care of eating. I ordered someone to prepare breakfast for you and wait for you to come."

Saying that, without waiting for Pei Jing's consent, someone brought the breakfast.

"The queen mother didn't eat either, and she had a meal with the queen mother."

Pei Jing had no choice but to sit down.

Gillian sat beside Pei Jing.

Suddenly, she looked up and said in astonishment: "Queen, what are we eating this early in the morning?"

Pei Jing looked at the black bean porridge, black sesame cake, stewed pork bone, lamb bone, beef bone and radish all over the table, a hodgepodge of deer penis, bull penis and tiger penis... and frowned tightly.

The queen smiled and glanced at A-Jiao: "Your prince and brother have been sedentary for a long time, and got up early every day, and your body is weak. Take advantage of these few days of rest, the queen mother will give him a good supplement. If you don't like it, drink some." Black bean porridge."

Pei Jing only felt her temples twitch violently, "Queen, I am in good health, so I don't need to eat these."

"Don't lie to your mother." The queen gave him a spoonful of bone soup, "At the New Year's banquet, the princess gave you venison and soft-shelled turtle. She secretly dislikes your lack of kidney energy. You are afraid that you are not happy. Clearly, this kind of thing has nothing to do with a man's dignity, and he must make up for it."

When Gillian heard this, she finally understood what was going on.

...It's worth it.

Sister-in-law's sex is a big deal, as her imperial brother, how can she let her sister-in-law feel disappointed in bed matters.

Gillian hurriedly booed: "Prince and Emperor, don't be embarrassed, the queen mother is right, you have to make love, sister-in-law is too embarrassed to speak, you have to be conscious."

"..."

Pei Jing pursed her thin lips, unable to think of how to tell them about this matter.

But in the eyes of the two of them, his performance seemed to be tacit agreement. They scooped porridge and soup for him one by one, and then stared at him eagerly, waiting for him to drink.

Pei Jing didn't want to waste words with them. It's a terrible thing for a woman to be stubborn, so she drank a small bowl of chowder and said, "I can't drink it anymore."

The empress sighed, understanding that he had a poor appetite because of the empress dowager's affairs, so she didn't force her, and she and A-Jiao had meals separately.

About half an hour later, Meng Chuji came to Chaoyang Palace.

He seemed to be in a more depressed mood than Pei Jing, with his head drooping, three souls and seven souls missing one soul, and his mind was wandering.

Seeing this, Pei Jing was a little uneasy, and called out, "Quiet."

Meng Chuji raised his head, his blank eyes fell on his face, Pei Jing asked in a low voice: "But Grandma Huang's condition has gotten worse?"

Meng Chuji shook his head and forced a smile: "She's fine."

"Then what happened to you?"

His appearance is more worrying than the Queen Mother.

Meng Chuji walked up to him, and buried himself in his arms like an ostrich.

"I'm just a little sad."

Pei Jing patted him on the back, "Don't be sad, birth, old age, sickness and death are normal, you told me."

"But I'm sorry."

Na Yijiu's sleeves were hot, and even through the thick coat, his skin still ached from the heat, and he wished he could take it out of his sleeves and throw it far away.

How he will speak to Pei Jing is more difficult than letting him continue to deceive Pei Jing.

However, his mother was sick with longing, his father was always worried about his safety, and his sister lived in panic...

He wants to go back.

"Qiu Yu, I'm so sad."

Meng Chuji tightened his grip on the skirt of his clothes, tears were about to flow out but he choked back them.

Pei Jing hugged him and repeated in his ear over and over again: "Don't be sad..."

The Empress Dowager met Meng Chuji, and proposed to rest and rest, and did not allow any idlers to visit her. In her last moments, she only wanted to be with the late emperor, so she set up a Buddhist altar in the Palace of Mercy, enshrining the late emperor's spirit tablet, sitting on the futon every day, and holding the spirit tablet relatively.

Pei Jing visited the palace every day, sometimes he was stopped outside the palace, and sometimes he was let in. Except for him, the others could only know about the Empress Dowager's condition from the imperial physician.

Probably the news that the queen mother will not live for two months hangs over Pei Jing's heart like a dark cloud. Pei Jing pays special attention to spending more time with his relatives. In the past few days when Xiu Mu spends less time with Meng Chuji, he is either in Chaoyang Palace or Tianqi Palace.

Accompanied Emperor Sui a lot, chatting with him to relieve boredom, Emperor Sui cheered up a lot, and drove the alchemist away from his side.

But going to Chaoyang Palace gave Pei Jing a headache, because the queen always brought him a bowl of chowder soup, and Pei Jing drank the chowder soup for several days in a row, and his whole body was in a panic.

Today was another bowl of miso soup, Pei Jing drank it down, but the queen said in surprise: "Jing'er, why are you so red?"

Pei Jing's eyes showed doubts. Apart from feeling a little dry and aware of other discomforts, he touched his face. It was a little hot, but not too hot, so he didn't take it to heart, and said:

"It's a little hot if you wear too much, it's okay."

The empress relaxed slightly, and said: "The empress dowager is going there, and the princess should not be neglected. If the concubine can be conceived earlier, the empress will feel more at ease when she passes away."

Pei Jing was taken aback, and smiled: "My son knows the queen mother."

Although he has not yet been able to abduct Meng Chuji to bed, he has even chosen the baby's name.

Girls should be called Pei Xuan, which means noisy, lively and likable like Meng Chuji; boys should be called Pei Mu, which means he loves Meng Chuji sincerely, and will never waver.

"Then you go back, it's getting late, the Crown Princess must be anxiously waiting in the mansion."

Pei Jing nodded, and said respectfully: "My child bids farewell to the queen mother."

The queen waved her hand, and Pei Jing slowly exited Chaoyang Palace.

After returning to the mansion, Meng Chuji was not in the room, but the manager told him that he was practicing in the archery room.

Pei Jing went over and approached, and heard the crackling sound of shooting arrows inside, one arrow after another, revealing the upset emotions of the archer like a catharsis, and couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

He didn't accompany him well these few days, he must have been too bored to take his anger out on the target.

He knocked on the door lightly and called out, "Quiet."

The sound of shooting arrows inside stopped abruptly.

Pei Jing pushed the door open and went in. Meng Chuji put down his bow, and there were arrows strewn all over the ground at his feet. He turned around with a half-joyed expression: "You're back?!"

Pei Jing took the bow in his hand, put it on the bow stand for him, touched his cold hands, breathed for him to warm him up, and said, "How long have you been shooting, why are your hands so cold?"

"It's been a while." Meng Chuji replied, staring at his face and wondering, "Why is your face so red?"

Pei Jing casually said, "It's snowing heavily, it's freezing."

Hearing the words, Meng Chuji hurriedly dragged him out of the archery practice room and back to the courtyard where they slept, where earth dragons were spread and charcoal was burned to keep it warm.

And caught a servant on the road: "Order the kitchen to cook a bowl of ginger soup as soon as possible and send it to my room to dispel the cold for His Highness."

Pei Jing's heart was warm, and he went back to the room with him. After a while, the ginger soup was cooked and brought to him. Meng Chuji brought it to him and said, "Hurry up, drink it while it's hot."

Pei Jing drank the ginger soup in one gulp.

Meng Chuji asked people to heat up the charcoal fire in the house again.

Unexpectedly, the redness on Pei Jing's face did not fade, but her nose was bleeding instead.

Meng Chuji exclaimed: "Qiu Yu, you..."

Pei Jing wiped the tip of his nose with his fingers. The glaring bright red on his fingertips made him change his face slightly, but seeing Meng Chuji's panicked expression, he wiped off the blood with a handkerchief, and comforted him: "It's okay, Don't be nervous, it's just that the tonic is too dry these days, just drink some green tea."

Meng Chuji didn't believe it, so he hurriedly asked Ah Fu, who was dozing outside the house, to find Dr. Liu. Ah Fu went away, and Dr. Liu came over to give Pei Jing a diagnosis and treatment. Shangyong, just drink some scented tea."

As soon as the words were finished, Pei Jing's nose bleeds again, like a flood bursting a bank.

Meng Chuji frantically went to make scented tea for Pei Jing, Doctor Liu managed to stop Pei Jing's bleeding, and the situation stabilized.

However, when going to bed at night, Pei Jing seemed a little manic, bathing and lying on the bed, tossing and turning for the first time, very restless.

Meng Chuji leaned over to touch his face, his cheeks were very hot, as if he had a fever, Pei Jing grabbed his hand, pressed his hand back with the greatest will in his life, and said, "Don't worry, I'll be fine in a while. "

Meng Chuji was still very worried: "Why don't you see Dr. Liu again and ask him to prescribe side medicine for you, you look very uncomfortable."
