After Liu Ying finished speaking, she coughed intermittently twice, and said while coughing: "You, you go and clean up the side hall, keep the movement quiet, and don't let the queen know. If the queen asks, she will say that it was me in the past two days." The condition is getting worse, and the queen is ordered to serve from the side, do you understand?"

The four or five palace servants next to him all answered yes, and two more palace servants went to the side hall with a brand new set of bedding for the couch.

The rest of the palace servants surrounded Liu Ying, one fed him medicine, the other massaged the acupuncture points on his shoulder and neck, and the other stood aside with a copper basin towel, as if he had already seen the strange thing. Strange.

Liu Ying coughed dozens of times, breathing more smoothly, and then continued: "A Yan, you have also seen that I may not last a few days with my body. You can live in the side hall with peace of mind. I won't bother you. As for the child, let's keep it in this palace too."

The eunuch carried the baby in front of Liu Ying at the right time, and bent slightly.

There was a faint smile in Liu Ying's eyes, she teased with her fingers for a while, and then ordered: "Hold it over."

The eunuch answered yes, turned around and bowed to Yunyao, then left with the child in his arms.The child was quiet all the time, even though Liu Ying had teased him a few times just now, he just clenched his fists, yawned a little, and then fell asleep in a daze.

From the beginning to the end, that child has never been in Yun Yao's hands.

Yun Yao hesitated for a moment, and finally couldn't help asking: "Is your majesty's illness serious?"

Liu Ying waved her hand and said with a smile: "Ayan, don't be too persistent. I said a few months ago that life and death are not up to others. Even if you are the emperor, you can't resist the destiny. Come here, Ayan." Yun Yao beckoned, and then gave a glance to the palace servants beside her.

The palace servants understood, they all backed away fourteen or five steps in unison, lowered their eyebrows and closed their eyes, neither looking nor listening.

Yun Yao hesitated for a moment, then finally stood up and moved to Liu Ying's side little by little.

Liu Ying gave up her position a little bit, propped one hand on the soft pillow, and pressed the brocade quilt with the other hand, her voice became hoarse and dark: "Four years ago, my mother and queen arranged you and me, and there were many conflicts of interests. You At that time, I was too young, so I couldn’t tell you about it. And Sister Lu Yuan and Xuan Pinghou, they are two of them, so I couldn’t tell you about it.”

When Yun Yao thought of the little bride she saw in a haze when she just traveled through time, she felt a little uncomfortable.

Liu Ying coughed twice again, breathed a sigh of relief, and then said slowly: "You have been at odds with me all these years, and you don't even want to call 'uncle' anymore. I think you should blame me. Don't hide it. Ah Yan, when Ah Yan married me, I also hated Ah Yan."

Therefore, in the several years of her empress career, Zhang Yan saw him very few times.

Thinking of this, Liu Ying couldn't help but rubbed her forehead in distress, her expression became slightly tired.He paused for a moment before continuing: "But now that Ayan is getting older, there are many things that I should break down and tell you in detail. Ayan, after I pass away, no matter what my mother said to you What and what to do, you have to remember, one is not buried, and the other is not out of the palace, understand?"

Yun Yao was startled, she opened her dark eyes and looked at him puzzled.

Liu Ying secretly thought that the child might be frightened, so she slowed down her voice and explained slowly: "Ayan remembers that although the palace is a little boring, at least there are tiger guards around to protect you; It's not very safe to go out of this palace, no matter whether you go back to Xuanpinghou's mansion or go to other places."

Huben was the forbidden army in the early Western Han Dynasty.

Yun Yao shook her head slightly, puzzled, "Why? I..."

Liu Ying raised her hand to stop her words, motioning her to look down at her hand.

He stretched out his index finger and wrote stroke by stroke on the brocade quilt: The queen mother has made many enemies.A hundred years from now, Gong'er will definitely not be able to inherit the throne.Before the new emperor ascends the throne, it means danger for you to leave the palace, understand?

Yun Yao was taken aback for a moment, then gradually understood.

It's not that Liu Ying doesn't know everything. There are many things that he just pretends to be deaf and dumb.

After Liu Ying finished writing, she leaned back a little, and said with a smile: "Ah Yan doesn't need to be too angry, and this is not necessarily a bad thing. At least from now on, Ah Yan will never have to see me as an annoying person again. I hate uncle. Isn't this a great thing?"

After speaking, he coughed violently again.

Yun Yao stretched out her hand to pat him on the back, but when she stretched her hand halfway, she suddenly hesitated again.

According to Liu Ying, the two of them hated each other for a long time in the past.Now myself...

"Cough, cough, cough." Liu Ying laughed while coughing, "Why, Ah Yan has become reserved too? When you were young, your uncle hugged you many times, if it wasn't for later..." He said this Suddenly, he abruptly stopped talking, changed the subject abruptly, and asked with a smile, "Is the queen mother all right?"

Yun Yao moved over slowly, patted his back lightly, and whispered: "The Queen Mother is fine."

At first she was still a little cautious and unaccustomed, but after thinking about it, this His Majesty Liu Ying probably fought angrily in the past, but because of Empress Lu's power, she reluctantly accepted it, and finally left the empress in the palace , I haven't seen him for a long time, thinking about it... this guy feels a little depressed.

Liu Ying has been completely excluded, and the person who holds the power in the court is Empress Lu, and the feeling of powerlessness is probably worse than her.

After a while, Liu Ying seemed to feel better, so she waved her hand and said with a smile: "It's okay, you can go to the side hall to rest. Well, by the way, I have ordered someone to take care of the boy who saved you the day before yesterday. Do you want to send someone to visit him?"

Yun Yao was taken aback.What saved her boy?

Seeing her surprised, Liu Ying guessed that she probably didn't remember, so she explained: "You slipped and fell on the bluestone bricks that day, if it wasn't for a tiger man next to me who was quick and grabbed you, the back of your head would be swollen. I'm about to hit a stone. The assassin that day... Well, look at your expression, I probably don't remember it. The assassin that day first wanted to assassinate the queen, and then you slipped and fell to the ground, and that tiger man helped you One hand, but I was stabbed right through. Ah Yan, you should thank him well."

Such righteous words and serious tone are completely like an emperor who cares about the younger generation.

That's right, Liu Ying never regarded Zhang Yan as her queen from the beginning to the end.

Thinking of this, Yun Yao was no longer as stiff as before, she bowed her head and said, "No."

Liu Ying's complexion also became more relaxed, and she waved her hands and said, "Go back and rest. You are not recovering from illness, and you must be a little tired after visiting your mother just now. Come, help the queen back to the side hall to rest. .”

As soon as he finished speaking, two palace servants came up beside him and said respectfully: "Please, Queen."

Yun Yao got up and bowed: "Then Ah Yan will not disturb His Majesty's rest."

————————————————————

She lived in Liu Ying's side hall for half a month.

In the past half a month, Empress Lu had to send a female official over every three days to ask if His Majesty and the Empress were in the same room, and to verify the Empress's body, but Liu Ying sent them out one by one.The female officer's posture was a bit tougher, so Liu Ying asked lightly: "If I or the queen's condition gets worse, which one of you can take this responsibility?" She scared the female officers out.

Except for one time, Empress Lu personally came to ask Liu Ying why she didn't have sex with the queen, and Liu Ying just replied calmly: "Does the queen mother still interfere with my bed/curtain?" I have to walk away.

But after Empress Lu left, a wry smile appeared on Liu Ying's face again, both depressed and melancholy.

The child that Empress Lu forcibly forced to raise, Liu Gong, came out cleaner.That child has been quiet since he was a child and doesn't like distress. Half of his appearance is inherited from his father, and the other half is inherited from his mother.Liu Ying occasionally teases him, which is Liu Ying's only pleasure in illness.

Occasionally, some documents will be sent from outside, and Liu Ying will be asked to stamp the seal, but most of the time, it is quiet here, as if it has been forgotten.

The palace attendants would occasionally talk about the mother-child conflict between Empress Lu and Liu Ying. Most of the gossip passed down from ear to ear was old news, even if Liu Ying heard it herself, she just smiled and sighed faintly.

Some time later, in midsummer, Liu Ying wanted to go out to inspect his Huben Camp.

And this time, even the empress dowager and empress went together, the scene was very grand.

Yun Yao sat on the high pavilion, looking at the tigers below, her mind has drifted to nowhere.She heard that this is the place where Empress Lu was assassinated that day, Queen Zhang Yan fell down, and was rescued immediately.A few days ago, according to Liu Ying's instructions, she sent someone to the house of Hu Benlang to say hello, but there is no news until now.And I also heard that that Huben Lang was seriously injured, and it was obvious that he was about to die.

She was very disturbed and sorry, but there was nothing she could do except to send a large amount of medicinal materials.

Liu Ying is already boosting Huben Lang's morale.From her point of view, she really saw that there was a vacant position in front of the densely packed Huben army, and she never filled it.Her gaze stayed for a while, then turned elsewhere.

After Liu Yingqiang finished his training, Empress Lu got up again and said some innocuous words, probably to let the Huben army defend the court wholeheartedly.Liu Ying made room for a little bit, but with a slight sway of her body, she was about to fall to the ground.

"His Majesty!!!"

The palace servants next to her panicked and went to support Liu Ying one by one.Yun Yao was the closest to Liu Ying, so she stood up and supported his arm.It wasn't until then that she realized that Liu Ying's face was pale, her breathing was short, and some blood was faintly oozing from the corner of her mouth.
