Ming Jue went back to Jianji Pavilion again, and when he was about to go to bed after dinner, a young eunuch came outside to report that someone from Su Wang's residence asked to see him.

The only ones who can enter Su Wang's mansion at will are Ming Jue's closest guards, Tianshu and Li Yimo.Yesterday evening Mingjue asked Tianshu to go back to report the letter, but today he waited for a whole day but did not hear back from him, so he remembered something in his heart, and at this moment when someone asked to see him, he immediately asked Xuan to come in.

However, the person who came was not Tianshu as Ming Jue thought, but Li Yimo.

"My subordinates greet the emperor." Li Yimo saluted.

"Get up, why are you here, where is Tianshu?"

"Back to the emperor, Tianshu is injured, so the subordinates have decided to answer for him." It's not that Tianshu was so injured that he couldn't get out of bed, but Li Yimo forcibly suppressed him from coming.

"It's my negligence, and it's time to let him rest, so what about the simplicity?"

"Lu, Mr. Lu is sick, and he is lying in the palace now, unable to get up." Li Yimo replied truthfully.

"What, what happened to him in short?"

"It was raining yesterday, and when I heard that the emperor was fine, I fell down and caught a fever."

"What did the doctor say?" Ming Jue asked anxiously, pacing back and forth.

"Doctor Li said that it was a lot of work and a cold outside. It's not a big deal." Ming Jue heard that there was no big deal, so he calmed down a little bit, but he was still worried. After sitting for a while, he suddenly stood up and said: " No, I have to go back and see him."

"Your Majesty?" Li Yimo was a little surprised when he heard this, but still followed.

Mingjue didn't dare to tell others, so he only quietly informed Dexi.

Dexi's first reaction when he heard the words was that he couldn't do it, and persuaded him: "Your Majesty, it's time now, and we really shouldn't leave the palace with great fanfare for someone who doesn't matter."

"In short, he is not an insignificant person." Ming Jue heard Dexi say this about Lu Hengxiu, and immediately refuted, his eyes were as sharp as knives, making Dexi dare not look directly at him.

Ming Jue seemed to feel that he was being too strict, so he softened his tone and said, "Elder-in-law knows him, and he was with me when I beat my son. If it wasn't for him, I would have died a long time ago. What's more, this time he is because of I was just sick, how could I be cruel not to see him."

Dexi is a slave after all, and after hearing what Ming Jue said, he had no choice but to agree, but he still couldn't help reminding: "The emperor must keep a low profile, and must come back tomorrow."

"I know, I will go out pretending to be a guard, and I will never make a big show of it. I will definitely come back before the political affairs hall discusses tomorrow."

When Ming Jue hurriedly felt that Su Wang's mansion was locked, it was Li Yimo who stepped forward and slapped the door open.

Ming Jue didn't care about talking to others, and went to the room where Lu Hengxiu was resting.

Lu Hengxiu originally lived outside Mingjue's house, but now that the weather is damp and cold and he is sick, Lao Li has the audacity to move him into Mingjue's master bedroom.

When Ming Jue came in, there were only a few dim lights in the room.Ying Shisan was guarding the guards outside, and when he saw Ming Jue coming, he wanted to get up to greet him, but Ming Jue stopped him by raising his hand.

Ming Jue walked in quietly, opened the curtain and found that Lu Hengxiu was asleep, his face was flushed abnormally due to his illness, and his cheeks were extremely thin.Mingjue's eyes turned acid when he saw it, and he almost never shed tears.

But he barely held back, and stretched out his hand to gently caress Lu Hengxiu's face.The sick man blinked his eyelashes a few times, and suddenly opened his eyes.Lu Hengxiu's eyes were moist and very bright.Because the master just woke up, there was a trace of ignorance in it.

Lu Hengxiu saw the person in front of him clearly, and confusedly called out that His Highness was about to get up, but was held down by Ming Jue.

Now Mingjue is the emperor, but Lu Hengxiu was so confused that he didn't correct his words for a while, and neither did Mingjue.

"I woke you up." Ming Jue caressed Lu Hengxiu's slightly warm cheek and said.

Lu Hengxiu smiled with crooked brows and eyes, and replied: "I've been asleep all day for what's going on." He still wanted to get up, as if he was lying uncomfortably.

Seeing this, Ming Jue sat on the head of Lu Hengxiu's bed, supported him against his chest, and wrapped Lu Hengxiu in his arms.

"It's so late, why is Your Highness here?" Lu Hengxiu raised his head and asked.

"I'm worried about you." Ming Jue put his head in the socket of Lu Hengxiu's shoulder, sniffing his breath.

Lu Hengxiu pushed Ming Jue, and said embarrassedly: "I haven't bathed for several days, Your Highness, don't get too close to me."

Ming Jue smiled when he heard the words, and moved a little closer.

Lu Hengxiu had nothing to do with his childish temper, so he had no choice but to let him go.

"In short, have you had a hard time these days?"

Hearing this, Lu Hengxiu thought of the rush on the mountain road for dozens of miles, how many sleepless nights, and the life-and-death crisis yesterday, but finally shook his head.

"There's nothing hard to do. If you want to say hard work, it's His Highness' hard work. Now it can be regarded as a success." Lu Hengxiu said with a gratified smile, halfway through the laugh, he suddenly remembered that Ming Jue was already the emperor.

"No, you can't call him Your Highness anymore." Lu Hengxiu lowered his head, looking annoyed at himself.From now on, Ming Jue will shoulder the heavy burden of these thousands of miles of land and mountains.

Ming Jue hugged him tightly, leaned into his ear and whispered softly: "It doesn't have to be like this between you and me."

Lu Hengxiu smiled when he heard this, but didn't speak.But a sentence suddenly popped out of my heart: No matter how good the monarch is, the more he is the right arm of the monarch, the more the monarch will be on guard day and night.

After thinking about it, Lu Hengxiu felt that he was thinking too much, so he shook his head to stop the restless thoughts in his mind.

"In short, if you feel better in two days, I'll take you to the palace, okay?"

Lu Hengxiu didn't answer, Ming Jue became the emperor, why would he stay by his side anymore?They can be masters and servants, they can be monarchs and ministers, but they can't be that kind of relationship alone.

"What's the emperor's plan in the future?" Lu Hengxiu brought up another topic. It's still a little awkward to call the emperor, after all, he called Ming Jue's Highness for 12 years.

"There is a great shortage of people around me now. The court is full of people from Duan Wenzheng. I plan to call Mr. Luo back to the capital."

"That's the reason. Now that the emperor is the first to become a great treasure, he should indeed promote a group of people. It would be better to open Enke again in a few days and select some poor families."

"Well, let's not talk about this. If you are sick, don't think about it. Even Lao Li said that you are worrying too much, so you should have a good rest!" He put it on the bed.

"You just need to rest well now and don't worry about anything else." Ming Jue helped Lu Hengxiu tuck the quilt while talking. "I'll be outside tonight, just call me if you need anything."

Lu Hengxiu hadn't seen Ming Jue for a long time, and felt a little bit reluctant, but couldn't bear the fact that he was really sleepy, so he let go of his hands and watched Ming Jue go out.

The next day, Ming Jue was about to leave before dawn, and when he came in to see Lu Hengxiu, Lu Hengxiu was still asleep.Ming Jue couldn't bear to disturb his rest, and he didn't want to leave here.Looking at Lu Hengxiu's haggard and sickly face, he lowered his head and kissed him on the forehead, and said softly, "I'm leaving, you are fine."

Lu Hengxiu didn't know if he heard it or not, and he groaned in his sleep. Ming Jue waited for a while, and when he saw that there was no sign of him waking up, he turned and left in disappointment.
