The courtiers bowed their heads in shock, and the emperor looked weak, but the situation was obviously better than they imagined. The emperor has been ill for many years, and the emperor was seriously ill earlier, but he is not as good as he has lived until now.

The appearance of the emperor made many people lose their minds, as long as the emperor is sober, as long as the emperor still supports the prince, then they can't make a fuss about the prince's house arrest of the emperor.

Xiao Ruide looked at Dong Ruyi, and he saw Dong Ruyi nodding and leaving.

Dong Ruyi walked up to Chen Ge Lao's side, "Chen Ge Lao's plan is afraid that it will come to naught." She said as she walked towards the gate.

Chen Ge Lao looked stunned, and then said: "What can this official do? This official is not afraid that His Majesty will have something. ”

The rumors were disillusioned by the appearance of the emperor, and some officials were extremely disappointed, but the royalists and neutralists were much more relieved, at least they would not become sinners for the ages.

Dong Ruyi left the hall and hurried back to the Qinzheng Palace.

Xiao Ruide stood outside the dormitory, anxiously pacing back and forth.

Dong Ruyi stepped forward and said, "How is Uncle Huang?"

Xiao Ruide whispered: "My father fainted again when he entered the palace, and the imperial doctor will be inside to rescue him." ”

Since the last time Dong Ruyi mentioned the title of Dong Ruyi out of the palace, Xiao Ruide has completely changed the title of the emperor. He completely understood Dong Ruyi's difficulties back then, it was not difficult to change his name to the emperor's father, but he really couldn't change his name to Uncle Qingwang. When no one saw him, he still called King Qing's father, but fortunately, King Qing only said it twice and then stopped mentioning it.

Dong Ruyi patted Xiao Ruide's arm, "Uncle Huang will be fine." ”

A low sobbing voice came, and Dong Ruyi hurriedly looked around.

Xiao Ruide pointed to the corner of the corridor and said, "Go and see your father, he blames himself very much." ”

Dong Ruyi sighed in her heart, she walked to the corridor and Wang was wiping her tears, obviously he also saw Dong Ruyi coming.

On behalf of the king, he said: "It's all my father's fault, and my father shouldn't have told your uncle about that." ”

Although the acting king wiped the tears from his face, he still cried. "Ruyi, what do you say if the emperor has something, and you call your father?"

Dong Ruyi soothed: "This matter is not my father's fault, do you think that the holy decree made by the imperial uncle today was improvised?"

Dong Ruyi asked and replied: "Obviously not, this is what the imperial uncle thought about early on, and the temporary decision is just to have one more accompanying five princes." ”

Dai Wang said: "Really?"

Dong Ruyi said: "Of course, others can't do this kind of thing, and neither can the prince." Otherwise, don't say that Liu Xiang's people have ideas, even Wei Xiang will also have opinions. Oh, don't you worry! Uncle Huang was so sick last time, didn't he also recuperate in the hot spring villa?"

The acting king felt a little relieved, he looked at the afterglow and saw Xiao Ruide coming, and said loudly: "You can rest assured, when you arrive at the hot spring villa, your father will personally look at the emperor." ”

Xiao Ruide was speechless in his heart, when will this acting king not let people worry?

Dong Ruyi said: "Then it's hard for my father." After she finished speaking, she touched Xiao Ruide, who was standing beside her.

Xiao Ruide sighed: "Father and the emperor will rely on the emperor uncle in the future." ”

The acting king said: "Don't worry!"

When the incense was not enough, the imperial doctors walked out.

The three of them walked over quickly, and the acting king said anxiously: "How is the emperor?"

Imperial Doctor Hu motioned to the other imperial doctors to take a step forward, and when there were no others, he said: "Your Majesty has woken up, Your Majesty will let His Royal Highness and the two princes go back first." ”

The acting king exhaled a long breath, "It's okay, I really scared this king just now." ”

The acting king went out of the palace alone, and Dong Ruyi and Xiao Ruide returned to the east study.

Xiao Ruide said: "I really didn't expect to be cheaper than the fifth prince in the end." "Accompanying the emperor to leave the palace is equivalent to getting the emperor's attention, and the five princes have picked up a bargain this time.

Dong Ruyi said: "Things are in a hurry, Uncle Huang thinks there is no other way!"

The emperor originally only planned to take King Qing and the acting king out of Beijing, but who would have thought that there would be such a rumor as house arrest in the court. For those remnants of Liu Xiang's forces, he didn't want to punish them, but now his body makes him feel powerless. In a hurry, he could only take away the five princes, and use this to contain Liu Xiangyi and Liu Shufei and others, so that they would not make waves.

The emperor's trip was scheduled for the next day of the winter solstice, and no one in the court had any objections to this. The emperor's cold-sensitive physique is well known to the officials of the DPRK and China, and the last time the emperor was seriously ill, he was also recuperated in the hot spring villa, so it is normal to go again this time. The difference from last time is that this time there is no Dong Ruyi among the people in the same company.

After the emperor left the palace, Xiao Ruide made the first will, but this will was not issued to the courtiers, but to the concubines of the harem. At this point, no matter how high or low he is in the harem, he is not allowed to step out of the harem, and he will not enter the harem either.

***

"It's snowing again, and Uncle Huang is afraid that he is going to spend the New Year in the hot spring villa. Dong Ruyi looked out the window and muttered to herself.

Xiao Ruide stood behind Dong Ruyi, and he put down the snacks in his hand. "Ruyi, do you have something on your mind?"

Dong Ruyi turned his head to look at Xiao Ruide, "I don't have anything on my mind, it's just that this winter is quiet and uneasy." ”

Shaw laughed, "Isn't it good to be quiet? Don't tell me you like chickens and dogs." ”

Dong Ruyi turned his head, "If the courtiers know that you describe them as chickens and dogs, I don't know how they feel?"

Xiao Ruide looked indifferent, "They like to think and think, anyway, I like today's days." "The emperor's illness is not all bad for him, at least he doesn't have to worry about the crown princess now.

The officials of the Ministry of Rites had already handed over the list of personnel of the crown princess, and he at first thought that he had no time to pay attention to the illness, but now on the grounds that the emperor was not in the capital, in short, the matter of choosing the crown princess was put on hold when it was occupied.

The emperor has the heart to choose a concubine for the prince, but he can't even show his face when the prince gets married. If he presided over it himself, he was afraid that he would faint on the way, so he could only put it aside for the time being.

Dong Ruyi got up and said, "I don't want to." Let's go, let's have dinner early today. ”

Xiao Ruide said: "I'll accompany you when you eat, can you stay in the palace to accompany me this year?" This may be the only time they can have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together and keep the New Year together. He was happy when he thought about it.

Dong Ruyi thought for a moment and said: "I have no problem here, but what should your mother and sister do?" She used to accompany the emperor in the palace for the New Year, but now that King Qing is driving away from Beijing, Xiao Ruide, the son who has just sat on the throne of the prince, should not let his mother celebrate the New Year alone!

Xiao Ruide smiled: "Mountain people have their own clever plans. ”

Dong Ruyi snorted, "Love to say it or not." She said and walked out first.

Xiao Ruide hurriedly chased out, "Don't go, I said it's not okay?"
