hold this little monk

Yu followed Wu Zhongqian to the imperial hospital, and all kinds of herbal medicine smell hit his face, which was very offensive. The servant sent by the princess to follow the two of them frowned. His name was Xiaoli.

Xiao Li's face is honest and friendly, but his eyes are always turning around, wondering if he is looking for something.

Yu knew that he followed him, nothing more than staring at Wu Zhongqian and Xiao Li.After all, Wu Zhongqian is the Queen's confidant, they walked together without hindrance, no one dared to chat with Eunuch Wu, question Wu Zhongqian's whereabouts, and as for Xiao Li, no one paid any attention to him.

The three of them were wary of each other, and it was really more difficult than going to heaven to spread the news from the palace.

Wu Zhongqian was quite frank in his actions, and he didn't communicate with any of them all the way. Even if he entered the imperial hospital, he directly found the highly respected imperial doctor Zhang, and dragged Zhang imperial doctor to the bedroom without saying a word.

When Doctor Zhang rushed back, the sky was getting dark gradually, until dusk, so unbelievable, it made everyone feel depressed.

The life and death of the person in the house will directly affect the survival of the empire. Too many people are looking forward to her death, and too many people are looking forward to her healthy body.

After an unknown amount of time, the closed bedroom door opened a crack, and Wu Zhongqian pushed the door and walked out.

The eldest princess asked anxiously, "How is Your Majesty?"

Wu Zhongqian glanced at the princess and said: "It's because the old illness has worsened all along. Your Majesty doesn't listen to our dissuasion these days. That's why today's incident happened. Doctor Zhang asked me to call his two apprentices over. This time, His Royal Highness Ming An will go with me, otherwise we will let the two strangers who are not in the palace go with me at all, lest someone with a heart will spread rumors."

Ming An has been in the palace for so long, and most people are already familiar with him. Although no one knows his real identity, there are various speculations. Most people think that Ming An is His Majesty's new male favourite.

The implication of Wu Zhongqian's words is: Anyway, His Royal Highness Ming An's reputation has long been dirty, and he is not afraid of making some more mistakes.

What he said was the truth. The princess and the others couldn't find any excuses to prevaricate for a while, but they still wanted Xiao Li to follow him, find a chance to spread the news outside the palace, and then let her be the old man who had been raised in the mansion for many years. The prince led troops to surround the palace.

As long as there is no medical treatment, His Majesty will return to the West sooner or later. She can endure the mutiny until now because of the love between mother and daughter for so many years, and everyone knows that Ming An and the people in Ziling Palace are on good terms, who knows? Will he listen to Yi Wang's words and do things that are not good for her.

The princess racked her brains, and choked out a sentence: "But Ming An hasn't recognized his ancestor and returned to his clan. This palace sees it, so I still can't believe it?"

Hearing her words made others feel uncomfortable, not to mention that Ming An listened, but Ming An was always cowardly, if he was bullied, at most Xiao Xuan would help him out, let him find justice for himself, and how can that be possible.

But today was different, Ming An was shackled and suppressed by the surroundings all day long, and he was in a terrible mood, coupled with his disgust for the eldest princess, he raised his head angrily like a lamb, and glared at her.

"My aunt's words really don't sound like an aunt's." Ming An's voice was still weak, but it was enough to shock everyone.

Xiaoxuan who folded his arms at the side was startled, he was still thinking about how to say a few words to Ming An, to help him get back on the spot, but he didn't expect Ming An to be capable today, and even dared to go into battle to kill the enemy himself.

The eldest princess was stunned, glanced at Xiaoxuan who was laughing out loud, her face sank, she walked to Ming An's side with a smile, and said with a smile: "This is the first time you call me aunt, I still think you don't recognize me. Since You have said that, and the palace will not stop you, but there are a few words, you still have to listen to them."

As she spoke, she reached out and touched Ming An's head, and said with a creepy smile: "Don't you make a wedding dress for others, don't forget that you are also an upright prince and grandson, you are not anyone's subordinate, you have The right to fight for all the things that could have belonged to your father——If the emperor knows that you are so promising, he will definitely smile at Jiuquan."

Ming An didn't know if he understood the meaning of her words, he looked at her dully, looking lost.

"Your Highness," Wu Zhongqian interrupted her, "Our family thinks it's not the time to say these things, His Majesty is still inside."

"That's right," the eldest princess covered her mouth and smiled, "Then Eunuch Wu should take him there quickly, and don't make His Majesty wait."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Bi Kong arrogantly, her eyes were full of pride.

She took a step to divorce, Ming An looked rustic, and probably didn't have a broad vision, so she was willing to hang around under those two people and listen to their words. Now she puts all her interests in front of Ming An. She didn't believe that the young man who had suffered for more than ten years would choose the latter between the beautiful country and brotherly loyalty.

After hearing this, Bi Kong didn't respond, and looked at Ming An quietly, as if he had a telepathy. Before Ming An followed Wu Zhongqian out, he also looked back at Bi Kong, his eyes were empty.

There wasn't much brotherhood between the two of them per se, let alone when they first met, he was so unfriendly to the point of brusqueness that the kid was terribly frightened by him.

If Ming An was really shaken by these words, and decided to turn his back temporarily and help the people of Yue Kingdom again, he would not blame him, but unfortunately, if the soldiers meet at that time, he will never show mercy.

Xiao Xuan's reaction was much more obvious than Bi Kong's. He stared straight at the princess who had killed one thousand enemies and self-destructed eight hundred, and smiled mockingly.

"why are you laughing?"

"Your Highness," Xiao Xuan said mercilessly, "You won't get what you want."

Not surprisingly, the eldest princess was furious, Emei frowned, and raised her hand to slap her down. Fortunately, her husband was still sensible and stopped her.

The eldest princess said angrily: "What is he! In terms of official position, he is just a court painter, not even the master of a palace. In terms of status... huh."

She didn't finish her words, and all her contempt was hidden in that "huh" without any concealment.

Xiao Xuan raised his lips and smiled, he was too lazy to argue with her, he knew the temper of this kind of person, if he argues more, the woman will become more energetic, and if he just smiles contemptuously, then he will really make her angry Seven orifices produce smoke.

Sure enough, when she saw that he was silent, she couldn't help but to say something, but was interrupted by the voice from the other side.

"Your Majesty Xuanzi Lingdian Xiaoxuan will see you." Doctor Zhang was very busy inside. How could he know what happened outside? He poked his head out from behind the door. He was wiping his sweat, and his voice was as breathless as anyone who didn't know. Thought he was sick.

"Your Majesty is awake?" Xiao Xuan asked.

"The acupuncture and moxibustion of the old minister temporarily clears up your majesty's mind for a while, please come in quickly, Mr. Xiaoxuan." Doctor Zhang pushed the door open and let Xiaoxuan in.

The eldest princess's expression froze, and she began to lose her face. She still wanted to be brave, but her voice faltered: "Your Majesty didn't make a mistake. How could it be an outsider who made the announcement first! Your Majesty is confused... that guy Could it be some monster, using some sorcery..."

"If he was an outsider, how could His Majesty let him stand in that painting?" Bi Kong looked at the tightly closed carved door, the smell of bitter medicine wafted into his nostrils, and the people in the room were very sick.

At this moment, the sun was shining lazily in the secluded palace, and the maids were coming in and out outside the palace. Everything was like an ordinary day, and no one knew what happened in this palace.Bi Kong was very calm, and he suddenly understood why His Majesty had been making sidelines about his marriage for so long and never mentioned it again.

She must have seen it a long time ago, how they saw it, maybe they will never know again, or maybe Xiaoxuan who is in the room at this moment will understand.

What on earth would they say inside the house?

A pear tree outside the house rustled its flowers, covering the bluestone slab with a thin layer of white, and it was unbelievably silent.

Inside the house, the old man who was leaning on the gamboge chair with a ruddy complexion a few hours ago was now lying on the brocade quilt with all her white hair scattered. Her eyes were still clear, and there was no sign of confusion.

This made Xiaoxuan even more puzzled, regardless of whether His Majesty's dragon body is healthy or not, the person kneeling beside her bed at this moment should not be him.

"Xiaoxuan." There was unconcealable tiredness in her voice.

"The minister is here."

Wisps of white smoke rose from the censer, curling up, and the smell of medicine lingered in every corner of the hall, and the extravagant sleeping hall was finally stained with the smell of secular smoke.

The empress tilted her head in an awkward posture.She looked at Xiaoxuan, but she didn't seem to be looking at Xiaoxuan, the eyes made Xiaoxuan goosebumps all over her body.After a long time, she said softly: "I can see that your friendship is unusual."

Xiaoxuan didn't dare to answer easily, and lowered his head in a humble manner.

"Back then, I had just entered the palace, and intrigue in the harem was nothing. As long as you never forget to protect your own interests, you will become the ultimate winner. However, whether you are a winner or a loser, I will always be like those dry bones in a deep well." I won't get that person," she said expressionlessly, with a flat tone, as if she had never had the mood of a girl before, "I was young back then, and I succeeded too easily, so I mistook his calmness for feelings and was possessed After wanting to devour, I made a mistake."

Her eyes moved, her lips trembled, and she stared at Xiaoxuan's black pupils with a sense of coolness.

"I thought that the late emperor just went astray for a while, so I used a little trick on my own to get rid of that man... I don't care about what happened later," she sneered, "I was young and ignorant, and I devoted all my heart and soul to On the late emperor, paying attention to his every move, he also naturally witnessed the unusual "gentlemen's friendship" between him and that person. Thanks to the late emperor, my heart is too similar to his grandfather, and they will all fight to save a person. wronged him."

The slower she spoke, the deeper her eyes stared at Xiaoxuan.

Xiaoxuan was silent for a moment, and said: "I have not wronged you."

"That's right, but if the first emperor had dared to be tougher back then, I would never have dared to attack that person lightly. The first emperor thought they were well disguised, but he didn't know...you men really don't understand many things, and I often can't figure it out. You guys If men are so simple-minded, how can they live together? Without a woman to take care of you, won't you play yourself to death sooner or later?"

Xiaoxuan was in a trance when he heard the reproachful tone, as if he saw the little girl from many years ago.

It's hard to imagine, if His Majesty has such a coquettish temperament, how did she spend the past few decades of pretending to be a strong woman, spending nights without anyone to rely on?Even Shengge every night is wearing a mask...

"Cough..." Realizing that he was impolite, he coughed twice and lowered his head, and was about to say a few official words to evade the old man's inexplicable emotion, but accidentally met the old man's shining eyes, Xiao Xuan was stunned , Facing those eyes, those eyes that were exactly the same as Bi Kong, he suddenly didn't want to lie.

After His Majesty woke up, he didn't call any of her sons and daughters in, but chose him. Does he still have to prevaricate?

This old man understands life better than too many people in this world. How could His Majesty fail to notice him casually speaking in a perfunctory manner?Was he going to disappoint a dying old man?

Xiao Xuan hesitated for a moment, then suddenly laughed, he sat down cross-legged, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, sometimes I feel compelled to thank you for your good intentions."
