On the first day Ming Jue helped the coffin back to Beijing, such a big incident happened, causing the whole capital to be uproarious, and Emperor Mingrui naturally comforted him personally.

After King Qing withdrew, Emperor Ming Rui summoned Ming Jue in Chengqian Hall, his Baptist Hall.

To enter the emperor's bedroom, Ming Jue naturally couldn't bring his own guards, and of course all the weapons he carried were also untied.Although it was a dragon's pond and a tiger's lair, Ming Jue had no other choice.

"His Royal Highness Su, the emperor asked you to go in!" Director Li, who was beside Emperor Rui, came out of the hall and Xuan Mingjue entered.

Mingjue had been waiting outside the palace for a long time, the sun in July was so poisonous, Mingjue stood quietly in front of the court without moving, sweat flowed from his forehead to his neckline, but there was no impatience on his face look.

"Please lead the way, father-in-law." Ming Jue's clear voice sounded, and he said neither humble nor overbearing, and then followed Manager Li to walk inside.

This is the palace where he was born, with red walls and yellow tiles, painted pillars and carved beams, resplendent and magnificent, but it is not a place he is really familiar with.The faces here were so unfamiliar to him that even though he had lived in the palace for ten years, he could not recognize anyone at all now.

The apse of Chengqian Palace is the emperor's sleeping palace. There are five rooms in total, and the emperor can live in it at will.Now Emperor Rui lived in the Ankang Hall in the east, and he took the meaning of well-being to pray for Emperor Rui who was ill.

"Greetings to Uncle Emperor!" Ming Jue knelt down respectfully and saluted through the bright yellow curtain.There was a faint trace of bitter medicinal smell in the air rushing into Ming Jue's nose, even if he lighted on ambergris, he couldn't hide it.

"Get up!" Emperor Ming Rui's old and steady voice came from behind the curtain, with a hint of imperceptible vanity. "A seat."

"Yes!" Ming Jue didn't dare to relax, stood up and sat cautiously on the mahogany stool brought over by the little eunuch.

"I've heard about what happened at the station yesterday..."

"I made the emperor worry, and I'm guilty." Ming Jue sincerely pleaded guilty. It seems that Emperor Ming Rui's current attitude is mainly to appease. In this case, he should be more humble.

"You don't have to be so frightened, I will give you an explanation for this matter." Emperor Mingrui coughed twice, and Director Li hurried in to relieve him. After a while, Emperor Mingrui's voice came out again .

"You don't need to pay attention to other things, I will guarantee your safety, you just watch the Ministry of Rites take care of your father's funeral."

"Yes." Ming Jue was a little relieved when he heard the words. Emperor Ming Rui probably meant to cut off the power in his hands, at least he didn't want to get rid of himself at the moment.

After Ming Jue agreed, he waited for a long time without waiting for Emperor Ming Rui's next words, and his heart suddenly became uneasy.But Director Li quickly walked out of the bright yellow curtain, walked to Ming Jue's side and said, "Your Highness, the Emperor has fallen asleep, and I'm afraid he won't wake up for a while, so go first!"

"This..." Ming Jue was a little hesitant when he heard the words, Emperor Rui didn't say anything, it was really inappropriate for him to leave without authorization like this.

But Manager Li waved his hand, signaling Ming Jue not to worry, obviously this was not the first time this happened.Therefore, people like Eunuch Li who served by his side also have experience in dealing with it.

"My lord, let's wait!" Ming Jue smiled and rejected Director Li's suggestion. He was born in the army, so it doesn't matter if he stays up for hours.But there are traps in the deep palace, he would rather be a little tired as if walking on thin ice, and he is not willing to fall into the trap of someone with a heart because of a little carelessness.

Manager Li smiled embarrassingly when he heard the words, touched his nose and said, "Then you can just wait here if you like!"

Ming Jue and Emperor Rui were separated by several layers of curtains, and the room was silent at the moment, the maids and eunuchs who were serving stood up straight, staring straight ahead, like clay sculptures, lifeless.Sitting on the cold stool by himself, Mingjue began to think of Lu Hengxiu. .

Although Ming Jue is much more mature and steady at this time, he has no experience in every step he takes now, and there will never be a way out.Maybe if you make a wrong step, you will fall into the abyss.

"In short, am I doing everything right?" Ming Jue murmured in his heart, if Lu Hengxiu was here, he probably wouldn't have to carefully consider every step and every word like him for a long time, would he?After all, Lu Hengxiu always seemed to be winning.

At this moment, Lu Hengxiu, whom Ming Jue was thinking of, was still recuperating in the small town.As it was getting late, a group of cavalry stepped into the peaceful and peaceful town.The leader of this group of men and horses in Xuanjia was Tianshu who was supposed to be stationed in Qizhou.

"Da da da~" The sound of horseshoes crushed the silence of the night, Tianshu got off his horse outside a farmhouse, and walked into the yard first.

"Hey? Hey? Hey? Where are you a soldier? Why do you want to come to my house?" the peasant woman from that household yelled loudly.

The peasant woman's voice was not low, and the general doctor Lao Li called out with this call.

"This is our man, let him in!" Lao Li yelled across the yard, the peasant woman listened and mumbled a few words before letting him go.

"Why is Master Tianshu here so soon? Where is Mr. Luo?" Lao Li asked and looked behind Tianshu, but only saw a few horses and a few people who were as attractive as Tianshu, obviously not Luo Wen Hee.

Tianshu didn't answer when he heard the words, but asked, "Where is Mr. Lu? I'll go and talk to him."

Old Li was a little unhappy when he heard that Lu Hengxiu was his patient now, and he didn't want his patient to work any longer.But when Tianshu wanted to see Lu Hengxiu, even a military doctor couldn't stop him, so he had to bring Tianshu in.

Although it was night, Lu Hengxiu hadn't fallen asleep yet. He just lit a kerosene lamp on the kang and read a book in the dim light.

"Who allowed you to read? You don't want to take the imperial examination, why are you studying so hard?" Lao Li taught with a beard and staring eyes.He also conveniently took the scroll from Lu Hengxiu's hand.

Lu Hengxiu smiled helplessly and said, "I'm just bored, lying like this all day..." Lu Hengxiu saw Tianshu behind Lao Li, and immediately stopped talking.

"Lord Tianshu, isn't Mr. Luo here?" Lu Hengxiu asked with a frown.

"Mr. Luo said that Qizhou and Yancheng are His Royal Highness' strongholds. Only when these two places are stable can His Highness have capital in the capital. Although there are many generals in Qizhou and Yancheng, there are not many scholars with strategies. Only Master Chen Ding must not be able to hold on, so he didn't come." Tianshu relayed what Luo Wenxi said.

"Then what should His Highness do? Originally, I wanted to go back to Beijing with him, but now I'm stranded here, Your Highness himself..." Lu Hengxiu said, his worry was palpable.

"Mr. Luo said that this is His Highness's calamity, and His Highness must go through it by himself." Luo Wenxi had already expected Lu Hengxiu's reaction, and even told Tianshu about this.

"If Mr. Lu is worried, I'll go to the capital too. After all, I'm more familiar with the capital. Your Highness shouldn't have just brought Li Yimo with him." Tianshu suggested.

Lu Hengxiu thought for a moment, and then said firmly: "That's right, but I want to go to the capital with you, starting tomorrow."

"This..." Tianshu was a little hesitant when he heard the words, Lu Hengxiu's face was pale, and his speech was also weak, it seemed that the situation was very bad.

"Did the old man agree? Do you dare to decide on your own? I said Master Lu, this is your own body." Lao Li persuaded with a beard and staring eyes. There is nothing to do on the battlefield. He is the first one who insists on sending himself to death. See you next time.

"Old Li, if I insist on leaving, will I die?" Lu Hengxiu asked hesitantly.

"Huh!" Lao Li snorted coldly, and after a while he said: "With me, Lao Li, guarding, death is unlikely, but it will definitely cause the root cause of the disease. When you are young, you don't take your body seriously. When you get sick when you get older, you should know how to regret it."

"If you can't take care of yourself right now, how can you talk about the future? Please, Lao Li." Lu Hengxiu begged sadly.

Lao Li shook his head helplessly, sighed and said, "Forget it, I promise you." After saying that, he walked away with his hands behind his back.

"Master Lu, let's rest!" Seeing this, Tianshu made a gesture to leave.

"Thank you for your hard work. You came all the way from Qizhou, so you don't have to rest well." Lu Hengxiu said apologetically.

"It's okay." Tianshu didn't say much, nodded, then turned and left.

Lu Hengxiu lay down on the earthen kang of the farmer's house, and did not blow out the dim lamp, but closed his eyelids slightly.

"Your Highness, wait a little longer, I'll go over and face it with you right away." Lu Hengxiu said silently in his heart, and suddenly thought of Ming Jue's reluctant expression when he left, and wished he could It's as if you put yourself in your arms and take it away together, it's really pitiful and cute!

Thinking of Ming Jue, Lu Hengxiu felt sweet in his heart, no matter how much suffering, as long as there is love and hope, it seems that there is nothing to fear.
