The carriage was already ready at the door, and Liu Bei did not sit in the carriage, but sat on a black horse.

He was dressed in violet clothes, tied with a golden and jade crown, his face was like a dark and dreary weather, and his eyes were wrapped with impatient anger, and when he saw the night condensing, he only glanced at it lightly, and said with a smile: "Prepare to get off the horse." ”

The carriage entered the palace gate under the leadership of Liu Bei, Ye Ning was not curious about the so-called palace at all, and only saw a deep palace road and mottled red brick palace wall in the slightly raised curtain.

It is impossible to look into the distance, only occasionally a tall pavilion comes into view, resplendent with glazed tile roofs touching the sunlight.

The carriage stopped, Ye Ning took a deep breath, and went straight out of the carriage.

The sun shone on the vermilion palace wall, and the golden glazed tiles in the distance reflected the dazzling light, and he was like a ghost who could not see the light, subconsciously reaching out to block the sunlight.

Liu Bei also dismounted, and the carriage and horses were tied here and continued to move forward.

When he arrived outside the Xiaoyun Palace, Liu Bei said softly: "Ye Ning, no one else is allowed to enter here, let's go together." ”

Ye Ning knew that the Xiaoyun Hall was the palace where the Emperor Taishang lived, and outside, there were already slaves and maids from various provinces, so she took a deep breath and followed Liu Bei in.

Passing by the courtyard with lush foliage, entering the main hall, there are many people standing in the main hall, Ye Ning glanced at it, all of them were richly dressed and had sad faces.

Most of these people he didn't recognize, and they needed to be introduced by Liu Bei.

Dressed in blue satin clothes, with a solemn and heavy face, is Liu Jun, the king of Ji, the eldest son of Emperor Ming Yuan, thirty years old, born to Concubine Qin, married the daughter of Marquis, Ma and Concubine Qin are now standing by his side, and with a pair of children,

Liu Wei, the king of Wei, Liu Du, the king of Sun, and Liu An, the king of Zhou, were all there, and they all brought their princesses and children into the palace.

The princes just nodded slightly, but did not talk, and the atmosphere was very calm.

Ye Ning felt that Liu Bei, who was standing beside him, suddenly tightened his body, and his eyes shifted, and the whole person looked very stiff and uncomfortable.

Ye Ning looked at the door and saw a couple coming in.

The man is about eighteen or nineteen years old, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a jade tree in the wind, a tall figure, and a white brocade that looks extraordinary.

His hand was tightly holding the woman beside him, she was wearing an auspicious cloud bun, a little emerald butterfly hairpin, wearing a pomegranate flower palace skirt woven with ice lake blue cloud fei makeup and satin, and a pair of moire warped pearl satin shoes on her feet.

Her face is like a hibiscus, and a pair of red coral ears on her earlobes sway with her footsteps, reflecting the charm of her eyebrows and eyes, and she does not lose her grace.

As soon as she entered the door, she felt that the ladies in the house were vulgar fans.

Liu Bei paused and said with a smile: "These two are the crown prince Liu Xiao and the crown princess Chu Mingcui."

Inside the hall, the sound of crying suddenly came from the voice.

Everyone looked startled and looked at the door in unison.

The curtain was rolled up, and a snow-white haired inner eunuch walked out, his eyes were red and swollen, his face was cold and depressed, and his voice was hoarse, "The emperor has a decree to invite all mothers, princes, and princesses into the palace." ”

This is Gonggong Li, who has served the Emperor for forty-five years.

Everyone's faces were silent and painful, and they followed Gonggong Li inside, their steps were very light, and their breathing was almost held.

Ye Ning followed behind Liu Bei.

There were already many people in the temple.

The queen mother and the emperor sat on the edge of the bed, the queen also stayed aside, and the emperor's brothers, that is, the princes who were divided into the princes, had already returned to the court, and had entered the palace yesterday and had been waiting in the palace.

Almost all the imperial doctors in the palace came, standing in two rows with solemn expressions.

Ye Ning watched quietly, only to see the golden curtain rolled up, on the sandalwood bed, there was an old man with a withered complexion, the pillow was very high, he opened his mouth wide to inhale, his mouth was like a black hole, and his eye sockets were sunken.

The cry came from the Queen Mother, and she sat on the edge of the bed, dressed in loose violet clothes, looking very thin.

She wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and although she tried her best to suppress it, there was still a sound of crying.

Seeing that everyone had come in, she raised her head, tears overflowed uncontrollably, and she choked up: "Kneel down and send your imperial grandfather." ”

Everyone knelt down, and Ye Ning dodged behind the pillar.

A small dog slipped in from outside the palace, whining and crawling onto the emperor's bed, and no one stopped him.

The Emperor Taishang raised this puppy, and he took it as a liver baby, and when he saw it, he would be happy, and the puppy tried to run for two or three days and did not come back, and the Emperor did not eat for two or three days.

When the Emperor Taishang saw the puppy, he was struggling to breathe, his eyes rolled, and he actually showed a kind look, raised his hand, and stroked the puppy lying beside his bed.

The puppy whined at him.

In the hall, there was only the sound of a puppy.

Ye Ning was as if he had been struck by thunder, and the whole person was stunned.

He understood the meaning of the puppy's barking, which was mourning his master's imminent departure.

When did he develop this skill? Can he understand dog language?

The Emperor Taishang stroked the puppy tremblingly, and then slowly turned his head to look at the emperor, although he was speechless, but there was a sense of loneliness in his eyes.

Emperor Ming Yuan knew what Emperor Taishang meant, and hurriedly said: "Father, please rest assured, I will definitely treat Fubao well." ”

The Emperor Taishang smiled contentedly, looking at the puppy Fubao with gentle eyes, and his breathing was even smoother than just now.

The Queen Mother choked up and said, "The Emperor, the grandchildren are here, don't you take a look?"

The Emperor Taishang rolled his eyes and looked at the head of the person kneeling on the ground under the black pressure on the ground, his mouth trembled, and he didn't say a word, but sighed softly, looking very reluctant.

Ye Ning knew that they were kneeling here to wait for the Emperor Taishang to breathe before coming in, and the Emperor seemed to be on the verge of dying, so he would leave soon.

But looking at him now, it doesn't look like he has run out of oil, and his breathing is much stronger.

However, perhaps it was the imperial doctors who used the effect of the medicine.

The Emperor Taishang seems to have heart disease, and he has also suffered from wind disease.

Now like this, I'm afraid it's heart failure, right?

Heart failure, difficulty breathing...... If only he had dopamine.

Ye Ning thought wildly in his mind, and the shock caused to him by the dog's words had not stopped.

The crowd knelt for about fifteen minutes, and some of them had already begun to shake, and the posture of the crowd kneeling was very awkward and stiff, which would cause numbness in the body for a long time.

He looked at Liu Bei next to him, he knelt straight, the curvature of his side face was clear, and the whole person was shrouded in sadness, not like a fake, if it was said that the royal family had no family affection, he was afraid that it would be untrue.

Emperor Ming Yuan and the judge of the imperial hospital walked out and spoke outside the curtain.

Ye Ning could vaguely hear a few words, Emperor Ming Yuan saw that the emperor's condition had improved, and asked the court if he should use medicine again, but the court said that this was a return to the light, which was probably a matter of this hour.

When Emperor Ming Yuan came in again, he ordered someone to put down the golden gauze tent, and then put down the cyan curtain outside, and said in a deep voice: "You guys, go forward to say hello to the emperor's grandfather." ”

The Queen Mother wept again, her whole body looked helpless and miserable, and the Queen sat beside her and held her hand tightly. And the Queen Mother looked at the person on the bed, who had been with her for almost her entire life.

The queen mother was persuaded to leave the tent, and the emperor helped her to sit down, and as soon as she sat down, she was close to collapse.

The first to enter were Prince Rui and his wife.

Prince Rui is the concubine of the Emperor Taishang, a compatriot of Emperor Ming Yuan, and the Queen Mother.

The two went in and kowtowed, said a few words to the emperor, and then withdrew, and when they came out, their eyes were red, but they couldn't help crying.

After that, it was the Baoli King and his wife, and they also came out after saying a few words, which was nothing more than to reassure the Emperor Taishang or something.
