Remember [Junzitang] in a second, Junzitang!

Just when Song Jing was puzzled by Li Chen's intentions, news came from the palace again, saying that the saint suddenly fell unconscious in the Hall of Eternal Life and was in a coma for two whole days. Li Chen knew that his father's illness was a stroke.

After waking up, Li Zhi summoned several ministers of the court, and no one knew what they said.

The crown prince supervised the country, the queen listened to the government, and in the early dynasty, a large group of ministers were there with their own thoughts, and everyone wanted to know what was going on with the saint's body now? In the past two years, the saint has been bedridden and taking medicine at every turn, but none of them has been as big as this movement.

Some of the ministers sought out the trusted people of the former saints, and some wanted to judge the situation and take sides. Princess Yongchang has always been favored, maybe the horse also knows something about the situation of the saint, so there are also a group of people who want to come to Song Jing to find out the situation.

Song Jing ignored those people and went out of the palace with Di Renjie, who was now in the household department.

Di Renjie had to go back to the household department after the dispersal of the dynasty, the household department belonged to Zhongshu Province, and the office was in the Taiji Palace. On this day, Song Jing's carriage happened to be waiting outside, so Song Jing invited Di Renjie to join the car, but Di Renjie did not refuse.

Since Song Jing entered the court as an official, Di Renjie has many ways to help him, and Song Jing's entry into the imperial history platform is also recommended by Di Renjie, so for Song Jing, Di Renjie is like his mentor. The relationship between teachers and students is naturally deeper than that of people who are good friends on weekdays, and both of them are upright, so it is not so much the love between teachers and students as it is more of a year-old friendship. Song Jing is self-assured and upright, so in front of Di Renjie, there is nothing that cannot be said.

The wheels of the carriage outside the carriage sounded, and Di Renjie in the car sighed: "The saint has not been to the court for a long time, although Her Royal Highness the Queen says that the saint is fine now, he can be a minister, it is always difficult to feel at ease." ”

Song Jing: "The sage was sober for a moment two days ago, and after seeing Liu Youxiang and Queen Yue with strong spirits, he was unconscious. Yongchang entered the palace yesterday, and the saint was not sober. ”

Di Renjie: "Now that the situation in Guanzhong is unstable, and there are foreign enemies on the border, the saint is sick at such a juncture, which is really a national disaster." ”

Song Jing was silent and did not speak. He actually held back a bunch of questions in his heart and wanted to ask Di Renjie, but in this situation, he couldn't ask them.

After a while, he said: "Di Gong, Jing used to think that as long as he could enter the court as an official, he would be able to ask for the people's lives wholeheartedly, but now it seems that this is not the case. ”

Di Renjie: "The world is bustling, all for profit; The world is crowded, all for profit. Villains and gentlemen, although each for their own benefit, but they all come for profit, so it is inevitable to gather together. ”

Song Jing smiled, his expression was very calm, "Now that the saint is seriously ill, all the forces in the DPRK and China are watching and are ready to move. ”

Di Renjie turned his head sideways, looked at Song Jing, who was not shocked, and sighed and said: "Now that the saint can no longer preside over state affairs, we may not have seen the face of the saint for a long time. ”

Di Renjie just felt it, and Song Jing listened to it, and he didn't say anything.

Di Renjie said again: "I don't dare to speculate on the king's heart, but there is one person who may still be able to test the holy will." ”

Song Jing: "Di Gong is talking about Yongchang? ”

Di Renjie nodded slowly, "The princess has been very smart since she was a child, and she has a sacred heart. Now that the saint is seriously ill, Princess Taiping has never been summoned to the palace to face the saint, but she only wants to see the princess, which shows that she has a heart for the saint, even if she can't know it all, she will definitely be able to understand seven or eight. ”

When Song Jing heard this, he smiled bitterly and said, "Even if Yongchang knows the holy will, he may not be willing to tell you and me. ”

Whether it is Di Renjie or Song Jing, when facing Her Royal Highness the Queen and the crown prince, even if you don't say it, you are an understanding person in your heart.

Entering the court as an official, even if he prides himself on being high-spirited and unwilling, he is unwilling to figure out the twists and turns that cater to many powerful people, but he will not really be a person who has a tendon to the end.

Throughout the ages, when an emperor was seriously ill, he didn't know how to coordinate the overall situation? In the past, Taizong was seriously ill, and before his death, he entrusted four ministers including the eldest grandson Wuji. Now that the saint is riddled with wind and disease, how can he not think that once he dies, he will face this internal and external troubles, how will the regime have a smooth transition? I am afraid that a few days ago, the emperor summoned the highly respected Liu Renliang and others, which was also related to this matter.

Di Renjie knew in his heart that Li Zhi had suffered enough from the ministers of life, and if he had an edict, he would definitely not leave ministers for Li Xian like Taizong. Knowing his son Mo Ruo's father, now that the crown prince is afraid of a few pounds and a few taels and no one knows better than Li Zhi, leaving the minister who holds a lot of power is a threat to the imperial power. If you don't leave the ministers who take care of your life, wouldn't it be to let Her Royal Highness the current queen be regent?

And now that Her Royal Highness the Queen has basically controlled the people around the saint, and her thoughts are also clear, no matter how confused the saint is, he will not not understand.

Since this is the case, what does the saint think?

Di Renjie couldn't figure it out, not only he couldn't figure it out, but Song Jing couldn't figure it out either.

Li Chen may understand, but she understands that it is one thing, and whether she is willing to say it is another.

Just when Song Jing and Di Renjie were talking about Princess Yongchang, the saint in the Palace of Eternal Life was already sober and sent someone to summon Princess Yongchang into the palace, saying that he wanted to see his little daughter.

Princess Yongchang has won the favor of the saint since she was a child, and has always been held and pampered by the emperor and his wife. The emperor is seriously ill, it has always been a major event in the court, and the ministers of the court are all kinds of worries, once the emperor dies, the power in the court is bound to face a change, so they are extremely worried. Her Royal Highness Wu Zetian, who has always been with the two saints of the saint, is not idle at all, she has to take care of the emperor on the one hand, and on the other hand, she has to pay attention to the situation in the imperial court.

As a result, Her Royal Highness also secretly met with waves of people. What Li Zhi wanted to see was Li Chen, and Wu Zetian had no time to accompany him, so he stayed alone with their father and daughter.

Shangguan Wan'er led Li Chen into the Hall of Eternal Life, and said softly: "The princess doesn't know, the saint can't move when she wakes up, and her eyesight has been lost. ”

Li Chen looked at Shangguan Wan'er on the side.

Shangguan Wan'er is really her mother's henchman now, and her mother is not in the Palace of Eternal Life, so she let Shangguan Wan'er stay here.

Li Chen: "Mother works hard. ”

Shangguan Wan'er smiled slightly, led Li Chen into the Hall of Eternal Life, and retreated the people left and right, leaving Li Chen in the hall. Li Chen stood at the door, looking at the people lying on the couch inside, and couldn't move for a while. She secretly took a deep breath and looked at Shangguan Wan'er, "I want to be alone with my father for a while." ”

Shangguan Wan'er raised her eyes to look at Li Chen, and the moment the two looked at each other, they quickly had some kind of tacit understanding.

Shangguan Wan'er saluted Li Chen and said softly, "Princess, please make a long story short." ”

Li Chen looked at her, feeling very complicated in his heart, but now he didn't have the time to figure out what he was feeling at the moment, "Wan'er, thank you." ”

Shangguan Wan'er: "The princess is polite." So saying, he bowed his head and withdrew from the temple.

Li Chen had been in and out of the Hall of Eternal Life countless times in the past, and there had never been such a difficult time as now, from the door to the front of the bed, a few short steps, it seemed to be extraordinarily long. But now is not the time to be sad and sad, her father has been sick for the past two years, she has long been mentally prepared that her father may not have much time, but when she really faces it, she still feels like the sky is about to collapse.

When she walked to the hospital bed and saw her father, a thin mist was already rolling in her eyes.

His father is always elegant and noble, even when he can't see, Li Chen has never seen him look like this. All of his hair was scattered, and his eyes, which had lost their luster because he couldn't see, were now cloudy yellow. Li Zhi seemed to notice the movement, and slowly turned his head, he couldn't see, but he stretched out his hand, and he was angry: "Is it Yongchang?" ”

"Aye!"

Li Chen walked over, knelt in front of the couch, and held his father's dry hand stretched out in mid-air.

This cold hand has always been very warm, when she was a child, her father accompanied her to practice calligraphy, taught her to play the piano, held her hand with his big hand, or taught her to skim the hook, or taught her to pluck the strings. With a wave of her father's hand, it seemed as if he could summon the wind and rain and give her whatever he could give her. But now, her father, who can shelter her from the wind and rain, is about to die, and she is in her prime.

Li Zhi's fingers moved slightly, and his voice was very weak, "Yongchang, your brothers and sisters have children, my father still remembers that they came to the palace to meet Ah Weng during the New Year's holidays, and my father wanted to see what my little Yongchang would be like when he was a mother, but my father didn't have time." ”

"How so?" Li Chen choked, "Aya will live a hundred years old." ”

Li Zhi smiled and said softly: "Yongchang, you have to remember what you said to your father, love your brothers and sisters, you have to treat them well, even if your brothers and sisters make any mistakes in the future, don't dislike them......"

The incense burner at the head of the bed smoked lightly, which was the incense used to relieve the emperor's headaches. Li Chen knelt in front of the couch, listening to his father's intermittent words, his father probably didn't do anything in his head now, and when he talked, he would say some nonsense, and Li Chen even guessed his father's words.

Li Zhi said: "Father remembers that when you were a child, the little one, sitting quietly with a bun, as if he was not interested in anything, unlike Taiping, rampaging in the palace. ”

Probably remembering what happened to his daughter when she was young, the expression on Li Zhi's face softened, and he seemed to have a nostalgic tone, "At that time, when you were the most well-behaved, it was when your father and mother accompanied you to practice calligraphy." Yongchang, there are some things that my father has no time to do, and my father wants to give you something. ”

Li Zhi said, and he didn't know where on the couch he found something and stuffed it into Li Chen's hand, Li Chen was slightly stunned.

"This is my father's private seal, the ministers of the court have always recognized that the emperor's jade seal is not a private seal, you can copy your father's words with fake and true, but if you have something that you can't solve and need to ask for help, Liu Youxiang Di Renjie's generation sees his father's private seal, maybe it will work."

Li Zhi said, his eyes seemed to be able to see, and he raised his hand and touched Li Chen's head, "Yongchang, remember what I said to my father." ”

Li Chen's tears didn't hold back, they fell from his eyes, slid across his face, and then dripped on the back of Li Zhi's hand resting on the couch.

Li Zhi felt the dampness and heat on the back of his hand, and his heart was also very sad.

Everyone has their own fate, and he is afraid that he is about to run out of oil, whether it is with his children or with his queen, he has seen one side and one side less.

After he became seriously ill, the people around him changed a lot, and his eyes were no longer visible, but his heart was not blind.

There are many things he doesn't have time to do, and sometimes he wonders what would have happened if he hadn't met Mei Niang when his father was seriously ill.

If it had been earlier, when his two brothers had not been deposed for competing for the crown prince, what would have happened to him?

He may just be an idle prince who likes the wind and snow, by the lake in the palace of the King of Jin, reading, playing the piano, and chanting poetry, there is no longer Wu Meiniang, and there is no longer everything that comes after.

Li Zhi thought about it and muttered, "Yongchang...... Yongchang ......"

Li Chen's eyes were red, and he stepped forward, "Aye." ”

The emperor was angry, and his voice was almost inaudible: "Yongchang, you should be the princess of the Tang Dynasty first, and then the mother's daughter......"

Li Chen was stunned for a moment, and was about to ask his father's intentions, when Shangguan Wan'er had already appeared at the door, "Princess, the saint should take medicine." ”

Li Chen stood up and looked at Shangguan Wan'er. Her father's private seal was quietly held in her hand, and her palms ached.

Shangguan Wan'er met her gaze, calm and unwavering.

Li Chen knew that this was probably what her mother meant, so she leaned over and said to her father: "Aye, take care of your body, Yongchang will enter the palace to see you another day." ”

"Yongchang...... Remember what your father said, be filial to your mother, and be kind to your brothers and sisters. Li Zhi patted the back of her hand, and the voice was so thin that she couldn't hear it.

The tears in Li Chen's eyes rolled down, and then he regained his composure, "Yongchang remembers it." ”
