Thanks to Mu Feng's blessing, Mu Qiu fell into a coma until the middle of the moon before finally waking up, propped himself up in a daze, and met the concerned and worried eyes of his highness.

"Your Highness..."

Mu Qiu sat up straight with difficulty, called out in a low voice, and felt his arms go weak unconsciously, and almost fell down on the couch.Song Zichen hurriedly stepped forward to support him, carefully tested the temperature of his forehead, and then breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, okay, I'm awake—but is there any discomfort? I told them to stew it." The chicken soup is boiled with ginseng slices, I didn't dare to add too much, I will give you a boost first..."

"Your Highness—what's wrong with me?"

Mu Qiu's head was still a little dizzy, and he struggled to sit still with his strength, but couldn't help rubbing his forehead lightly.He only remembered that he had suddenly obtained his father's belongings before, and heard that his father had actually admitted himself a long time ago, so he couldn't hold back for a while under the agitation of his mind, but it shouldn't have reached the point of fainting casually.Just as he frowned slightly thinking about what was going on, Song Zichen at the side also saw his confusion, and quickly explained: "It's not your fault, it's your father who ordered the acupuncture points for you - he said Feng If you have those acupoints of yours, you will fall into a coma as long as your mind is too turbulent, which can also protect your heart. Let alone you, I was shocked just now..."

Although he didn't dare to say it in front of Mu Qiu, Song Zichen couldn't help but secretly sighed that this old man is really not easy to mess with.Shaking his head with lingering fear, he poured a cup of tea for the man, and then said in a slow voice: "Mu Qiu, it's late at night, I told them to take the old man to rest first. The past is over, Do you want to take it too seriously..."

"Don't worry, Your Highness, I just thought that my father was unable to hold on for a while. Now that the matter has been discussed, there is nothing I can't bear anymore."

Mu Qiu smiled and shook his head, replied warmly, pondered for a moment before softly saying: "Your Highness, the third prince's move is actually not unexpected. He is besieged on all sides now, and he can't bear the slightest turmoil. If grandfather always stays The capital city is like a thorn in his flesh, even if he can't do anything to his grandfather, he will definitely take the opportunity to attack His Highness."

"If he wants to come, let him come. Even if he doesn't attack me, I still want to have a good talk with him."

Thinking of Song Zixuan's shady deeds, Song Zichen's eyes could not help but sink slightly, and he said in a cold voice.Mu Qiu couldn't help but had a helpless smile in his eyes, shook his head slightly, and sighed very lightly: "Your Highness, he is like a poisonous snake hidden in the darkness, ready to kill anyone who passes by at any time. One bite. If you face him face to face, His Highness naturally doesn't need to be afraid of him, but if you are accidentally bitten by him, you may not be able to get away easily, Your Highness said, right?"

"That's the reason, but I still feel angry."

Song Zichen replied in a low voice as if angry, leaned over the man, and muttered like venting his anger: "If you said you didn't know anything, just watch him torment you. Now I know your relationship. , Thinking about those things he did, I feel so angry - sooner or later I will give him back all those things he did to you, so that he is often tortured to death taste……"

"Your Highness...that's all for later, let's talk about how to arrange it with grandfather."

Mu Qiu smiled helplessly, and said a word of persuasion in a gentle voice.Song Zichen reluctantly raised his head to look at him, with a little resentment in his eyes that hadn't dissipated, he fiddled with his sleeves silently, causing Mu Qiu to have a slight smile in his eyes, Gently patted his big head lying on his lap and said, "Your Highness is not a child anymore. I know what His Highness is thinking, but it's really not the right time. Besides - no matter what, he is my father's biological child after all." Flesh and blood, I still don't want to repay my grievances. Otherwise, if I see my father in the future, I really don't know how to explain..."

"If your father really knew all this, he would have personally punished this unworthy son."

Song Zichen responded in a low voice, shook his hand, but still sat up straight and said seriously: "Mu Qiu, I'll listen to you, and do what you say. If you think it's unsafe for us, I will Think of something else—”

Before he finished speaking, a servant brought chicken soup from outside the door.Song Zichen got up quickly and didn't allow him to toss about. He went over to get the jar of chicken soup, put some in bowls, held him skillfully in his arms, scooped up a spoon and blew a few breaths, then patiently Feed it to his lips: "Come on, drink a little more, I have to try to make you fatter."

In fact, Mu Qiu didn't feel hungry, but he still drank the spoonful of chicken soup with his hand, coughed twice before saying slowly: "According to the current situation, it is not an option to send grandfather out. Your Highness can only Find a way to find foreign aid, I am afraid that Marquis Yunhui will not be able to help, His Highness might as well try to find the Emperor - based on the relationship between the Emperor and his father, he will probably find a way for His Highness."

"To be honest, I haven't figured out what to say when I meet my father. Last time, my father said that if I knew something I shouldn't know, he might silence me. Although it's not true, I I don't believe that the emperor just said it casually to scare me..."

As soon as his father was mentioned, Song Zichen couldn't help sighing again, and shook his head listlessly: "Although father's attitude towards me has changed, he may not be able to blindly protect me. I always feel that this matter It's a scar in Father's heart, once anyone bumps into it recklessly, he will be slapped into a pulp by Father's slap..."

"His Highness's concern is not unreasonable. The emperor has always been quite concerned about this matter, so he might not think of a way to keep our mouths shut."

Mu Qiu sighed helplessly, but he couldn't help but frowned, and said in a slow voice after thinking: "If——if Marquis Yunhui is willing to protect His Highness, we may still have some confidence. Why don't I accompany His Highness to visit Yun tomorrow?" Hui Hou, let's try to see if there is a turning point?"

"You come with me--is it all right?"

Song Zichen just fed him another mouthful of chicken soup, his eyes widened in astonishment, and hesitantly said in a low voice: "Mu Qiu, although I am quite willing to take you out, but after all, Father asked me to take you back to recuperate Yes. If I drag you out again and again for three days, will my father really not tie you back..."

Mu Qiu rested for a while and felt that he had some strength, so he took the soup bowl by himself, sipped the fragrant chicken soup, smiled and shook his head and said, "Your Highness, don't worry—although the emperor said he let go When I come back to recuperate, it doesn't mean that I need to stay at home all day long, it's just that I want to separate the two of us... If I'm not wrong, there will be people in the palace within two days at the latest His Highness is called into the palace, and His Highness is asked to come down and take charge of the poisoning case."

"It makes sense—according to our past situation, most of what happened in this palace can't be hidden from his old man. As long as I enter the palace, I'm afraid I will be blocked by my father."

Song Zichen nodded, couldn't help but sighed in frustration, and lay down listlessly on the side of the couch: "Mu Qiu, do you think I'm just looking for trouble? It's fine when I didn't know anything at first. But I have to be dissatisfied, I finally made me figure out the truth after making a fuss, but now I am hesitant to move forward..."

"It's human nature for Your Highness to be like this. If it were me, even if I knew that there would be a price to pay for knowing some things, I still might not be able to bear the desire to find out."

Mu Qiu shook his head with a slight smile, responded warmly, and lightly pressed his shoulder: "Now that I already know, I can't ask His Highness to forget these things again. Starting from the third prince, I will use all means From that moment on, there is no way out or room for retreat in the whole matter, even if His Highness knows all this, the Emperor may not be willing to do anything to His Highness."

"That's what I said, but when I think of the tone of my father when he talked about this matter with me, I feel very empty."

Song Zichen sighed in frustration, and shook his head helplessly.Just as he was about to speak again, the door was suddenly pushed open with a bang, and Mu Feng hurried in from outside.

"Uncle Feng—what's the matter?"

Startled by his movement, Song Zichen stood up instinctively, subconsciously protecting Mu Qiu behind him.Looking at his tense and vigilant expression, Mu Feng pursed his lips impatiently, but he was not in the mood to play Tai Chi with him, so he frowned and said in a low voice: "The emperor is coming to you for a private visit. Hurry up." Get out of the way, I'll think of a way to make Qiu'er faint, and I'll think of a way to get over this time."

"Father...do you have to make the child faint at any time?"

I really don't know whether I should be touched by my father saying hello before he fainted, or whether I should be troubled by why my father must use such a rough way to put me down directly when encountering anything.Mu Qiu shook his head dumbfoundingly, put down the soup bowl in his hand, raised his head solemnly to meet his father's gaze, and said in a slow voice, "This time I want to accompany His Highness to deal with it—Father, is it okay?"

Mu Feng looked at him in silence for a while, and finally heaved a heavy sigh. He flicked his sleeves and said in a low voice, "It's all right for you to protect him, and you can't take yourself as the price anymore. Your current body However, you should also know that since you can’t calm down and take a good rest, you should pay more attention to your body. If you suddenly collapse one day, can your Highness still be able to support yourself?”

Subconsciously clenched Mu Qiu's hand, before Song Zichen could speak, he was firmly held back by the man.Subconsciously looking over, I met the familiar gentle and determined eyes: "Yes—my son will remember, father, don't worry, my son will definitely cherish me more."
