At the same time, Zhao Kuangyin, who had just finished the early dynasty and was still discussing with the ministers, was a little distracted from time to time.

He couldn't help but think about the seriously ill Empress Dowager Du.

Empress Dowager Du was just a headache at first, but as the days passed, it became more and more serious, and finally people couldn't get out of bed.

Especially last night, as soon as he and the Han Emperor Liu Jun's "free drink" was dispersed, he heard the news that the Empress Dowager Du suddenly vomited.

He served in front of the bed all night, and this day he had just returned to the main hall in the morning for less than an hour, and the Empress Dowager Du suddenly sent people from the palace to look for him.

Zhao Kuangyin was already worried about the turmoil, and immediately left all the courtiers, came out of the main hall and went straight to the Empress Dowager Du's bedroom.

"But the Queen Mother is seriously ill? When you left, how did the Queen Mother explain!"

"The official family, the slaves don't know if the queen mother is sick or not. When the slave left, the queen mother lay on the bed like you left, and only let the slave tell the official family that she was in a hurry to let the official family pass. โ€

After listening to the words of the palace people, Zhao Kuangyin suddenly felt a trace of strangeness in his heart, and then thought of the way the Queen Mother looked at him in the past few days. Unconsciously began to wonder what the Queen Mother wanted to do.

However, in the end, it was the mother, and in the end, she was worried about her illness, and these thoughts only existed for a moment, and then they returned to worrying about her body, and couldn't help but ask again.

"Before you came, did the Queen Mother go to the imperial doctor?"

Although the palace people served in the Empress Dowager's Palace, it was the first time they had such a tight question with Zhao Kuangyin, and they became more and more nervous, tightening their heads, not daring to raise a little.

"When the slave left, he didn't see the imperial doctor, but he met the king of Jin who was walking towards the door of the palace, and the slave gave him a salute. โ€

King Jin, hearing Zhao Guangyi, Zhao Kuangyin didn't know why the strangeness in his heart was heavier, and suddenly thought of his mother's unhappy expression when he mentioned that he wanted to establish a prince the day before yesterday.

Could it be that she had in mind when she called him there today?

Thinking about it, I unconsciously arrived outside the gate of the Queen Mother's Palace.

Shi Li, who was on duty at the door, bowed his head and strode in.

.....

Zhao Kuangyin had been prepared before he came, but he was a little surprised to see that in addition to Zhao Guangyi, there was also Zhao Pu present.

It's just that this discoloration disappeared from his eyes in a moment.

walked up to Empress Dowager Du and saluted her worriedly.

"The queen mother hurriedly sent someone to call her son, but what is the discomfort?"

Empress Dowager Du frowned at the moment, her face pale. Shaking his head, he handed his hand to Zhao Guangyi beside the bed.

Zhao Guangyi hurriedly helped her up and leaned against the bed.

Empress Dowager Du obviously lacked strength, just such a move. It took a few gasps to calm down.

After that, he asked Zhao Kuangyin, "Does the official family know how you got the world?"

Zhao Kuangyin thought that Empress Dowager Du was fine a few days ago, but now she is like this, and she couldn't help choking. He replied immediately.

"The reason why Erchen can win the world is because of his ancestors and mother. โ€

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Empress Dowager Du's hand.

"No, the world of the Great Zhou can be replaced by you, it is entirely because the Emperor of Zhou let his young son rule the world, if the Great Zhou has an older emperor, there is still a chance for you! After you die, you must pass the position to your younger brother. The four seas are wide, and they can establish a long monarch, and the blessing of the country is also. โ€

As soon as he finished speaking, the person lay down on the bed with no physical strength, and began to gasp for breath again, but his eyes were always staring at Zhao Kuangyin, without a trace of deviation.

Zhao Kuangyin felt sorry for Empress Dowager Du's body, couldn't help tears, raised his head and said.

"Erchen will never disobey!"

Empress Dowager Du stopped looking at him at this time, and turned her head to take Zhao Guangyi's hand.

"Today, you must not disobey it!"

After that, without waiting for Zhao Guangyi to answer, he turned his head and said to Zhao Pu on the side.

"You immediately record all the words of the palace and the official family just now. โ€

Zhao Pu did not disobey, immediately took a pen and paper to write, and signed the 'Chen Pu Book' at the end, and then handed it to the Empress Dowager Du.

Zhao Guangyi took it in her hand, and was immediately taken away by her. After carefully looking at it a few times, Fang took a gold cube from his side and carefully locked it inside.

Immediately afterwards, he called the palace people to take it away, and repeatedly emphasized that it should be kept carefully.

In this way, it was finally a matter of her heart, and she compensated San'er for Su Jinxi's debt.

"The Queen Mother, if there is no matter of the minister here, the minister will retire first. โ€

After Zhao Pu finished speaking, he respectfully saluted the Empress Dowager Du, Zhao Kuangyin, and Zhao Guangyi respectively, and retreated out of the bedroom.

As soon as Zhao Pu went out, Empress Dowager Du was probably tired, gasped again, and said to the two brothers.

"Go down, all of you. โ€

"Yes. โ€

"Yes. โ€

The two answered together, and after giving the salute, they went out together.

Because going to the main hall and going to the gate of Ouchi are the same way, the two of them also walked together.

But there was a lot of silence all the way, and no one seemed to have the intention of speaking first.

In the end, it was Zhao Kuangyin who stopped first and said.

"Third brother, do you still care about her?"

The attendant was very discerning, and when he saw him say this, he immediately withdrew far away.

For a moment, there were only the two of them left by their side.

Zhao Guangyi was stunned for a moment, and immediately recovered.

"The younger brother didn't understand what the official family meant. โ€

Zhao Kuangyin stared at him for a while and sighed.

"You know that the official family is talking about Su Jinxi, no matter if you don't want to admit it, the official family will not force you. It's just that now you and her are married, and you know very well who the person who married her is, and it's better to let go and live your own life. โ€

Zhao Guangyi still wanted to veto his words and pretend to be confused, but... I couldn't help it.

"Live my own life? Can I still have the opportunity to live my own life now?! How did you ever give me this opportunity! I married all the people you let marry, I did everything you asked me to do, it should be mine, and naturally it should be mine, as for what will happen to me in the future, that is also my own business!"

Speak to him with such an attitude?

Zhao Kuangyin was suddenly a little stunned.

They have four brothers and one sister, except for the eldest brother who died early, not the fourth brother of the same mother, the two brothers have always been the closest.

Since he was a child, he loved to follow him the most, and later he hid in the Tang Kingdom for many years, wandering among the ministers for him, and lobbying in the end. Although he does not like these "social".

And since when did they become estranged from each other?

Because of Su Jinxi.

Because he saw through the calculations he had with his mother on that day against him and Su Jinxi.

In the end, they succeeded in keeping the woman away from him, and even withdrawing from his life.

But he also seems to have withdrawn from their lives.

"I don't mind giving you the position, but is this really what you want?" he didn't use the emperor's tone again, and resumed his previous words with him.

Oh, but can they go back? If they can really be so light, he really doesn't care about giving up his country.

He really regretted that decision.

He underestimated the weight of Su Jinxi in his heart.

But aren't we brothers, are we so clear about our love for many years?

And immediately after, he heard Zhao Guangyi's cold words.

The official family has just heard the meaning of the queen mother, and has also seen Zhao Pu's handwriting, and witnessed how the palace people carefully put it away. Whether you want to or not, I'm afraid it's not up to you and me to decide. โ€

His words were like a basin of ice water at the head, and a cold cold instantly filled Zhao Kuangyin's whole body. Then it goes deep into the heart, deep into the bone marrow.
