Chapter Thirty-Eight: Father and Son

"Then let her kneel. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" said the monarch with supreme power in a cold voice.

But the corners of his mouth twitched as he said this, and he hurriedly turned his head away.

The prince's expression changed slightly, but because he covered it up well, outsiders did not notice it.

Just as the brocade guard turned to leave, another brocade guard ran up and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, Concubine Guo Xian is also here, kneeling with them." Then he handed over another letter, saying, "This is a letter they have jointly written to Your Majesty." ”

The emperor stretched out his hand to take the letter, and saw that it read, "Please show mercy to Your Majesty's subordinates." ”

The handwriting is from Yunyiting.

The emperor's right hand clenched into a fist and laughed coldly.

The prince sighed almost inaudibly.

The emperor did not hear the prince's sigh, and he threw the letter in front of the prince.

The prince thought for a moment before reaching out to unfold the letter, and closed his eyes after reading it.

Then, the prince suddenly walked out of a son who was not in his favor.

Seeing this, everyone was dumbfounded.

Although the brocade guard who came up last to report didn't know much about chess, when he saw everyone's expressions, he already understood five or six points, so he didn't go down immediately to reply, but quietly hid in the crowd.

He wanted to finish the game and then reply.

Judging from the current situation, it should be the end.

The emperor did not give himself and the crown prince a chance to think too much, and immediately attacked violently.

At this moment, another brocade guard walked up quickly and said, "Your Majesty, the queen is ......."

The emperor stretched out his hand to stop him from continuing.

The prince hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with the queen?" ”

"I fainted on the ground and has been sent back to Kunyi Palace." The brocade guard replied.

Hearing the news, the expressions of the emperor and the crown prince changed, but the chess game had come to an end, and the two had to hold it and turn their attention back to the chess game.

Because of the prince's move just now, the emperor can be said to be unhindered all the way.

In the end, the emperor won.

Some people sighed secretly, and some people secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The battlefield that was originally full of gunpowder smoke was immediately replaced with a peaceful scene of Haiqing River Yan and all things.

There was no expression on the prince's face, so no one knew whether he was happy or sad at the moment, or something else.

The emperor's expression did not seem to be very happy.

The crown prince saluted the emperor and said, "Erchen wants to go to see the queen mother." ”

Now that the chess game has been played and the winner has been decided, the prince does not want to stay here any longer. Besides, he has a splitting headache now, and he may collapse at any moment. He didn't want to fall in front of the emperor.

The emperor nodded and said, "Go ahead." By the way, I told her that I would visit her later. The emperor's tone was gentle, and his eyes looking at the prince were much softer than before.

The crown prince immediately hurriedly descended from the Great Yantai.

No one could figure out whether the prince's last move was deliberate or a momentary confusion, but no one was willing to delve into it at the moment, because the emperor announced that he would reward those present, and they were distracted by this unexpected reward. And, they knew - they could now finally leave Dayantai safely.

The emperor asked Yun Yiting, Zheng Yusong and Miyazawa Zhe to go to the Qianqing Palace first to wait for him.

After receiving the instructions, the three people immediately got up and went to the Qianqing Palace.

On the way back to the Qianqing Palace, the emperor suddenly felt a tightness in his chest, and before he could stop, he saw a mouthful of blood spurting out of his mouth.

Father-in-law Zhang was frightened when he saw this, and hurriedly took out a hand towel to help him wipe it, and asked urgently: "Your Majesty, are you uncomfortable?" ”

In Zhang's father-in-law's impression, the emperor had vomited blood only once four years ago, and that was when he had suppressed Yi Gang's rebellion for three consecutive days without sleep and achieved the final victory. Now that the emperor is vomiting blood again, it can be seen how hard the emperor is working in this game of chess today.

Looking at the handkerchief that was stained red with blood, Grandpa Zhang's hands trembled.

After all, the person in front of him is the Son of Heaven, and if the Son of Heaven has a physical problem, it is a great thing.

The emperor didn't think so, he didn't answer and asked: "Did the prince play chess with illness?" ”

Father-in-law Zhang weighed the intention of his words, and didn't know how to answer for a while.

Although the prince tried his best to hide his physical condition today, careful people can still see one or two.

Father-in-law Zhang has always been good at observing words and feelings, so he is naturally aware of it.

In order not to make the emperor angry, Gonggong Zhang said in a low voice: "Forgive the slave for being stupid, the slave didn't see anything unusual about the prince." ”

The emperor smiled bitterly and said, "You, one by one, are acting in front of me." The last few words were almost uttered through gritted teeth.

"The minions don't dare." Father-in-law Zhang hurriedly knelt down.

The emperor smiled bitterly again and muttered, "Why is it so difficult for me to communicate with him?" Why did he never reveal his heart to me? ”

Father-in-law Zhang didn't dare to answer.

It is difficult for the heavenly family to have a normal father-son relationship, he is just a little father-in-law, so it is better not to involve himself as much as possible.

After a while, the emperor said, "Get up, there are still three people in the Qianqing Palace who are waiting for me." ”

Gonggong Zhang hurriedly got up and helped the emperor to go to the Qianqing Palace.

After playing chess, the prince went directly to Kunyi Palace to meet Empress Jingzhuang.

At this time, the prince was already dazed by a high fever, but he still held on.

When he arrived at the gate of Dekunyi Palace, he staggered.

Lin Frame's eyes were sharp, and he immediately stepped forward to hold him up.

Concubine Guo Xian is also in Kunyi Palace. She was taking care of Empress Jingzhuang in a coma.

Seeing the prince come in, Concubine Guo Xian hurriedly got up to greet him.

Although she was younger than the crown prince, she was the same age as his mother in terms of seniority, so he respectfully bowed to her.

"The imperial doctor came just now, and said that the queen mother was in a coma caused by excessive worry and lack of sleep, and it would be good to take care of it for a while." Concubine Guo Xian said to the prince.

Only then did the prince relax and sit down on the chair in front of Queen Jingzhuang's bed.

When he sat down, the prince felt a faintness in front of him and a throbbing pain in his head, so he couldn't help but snort.

Concubine Guo Xian hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with the prince?" ”

Lin Frame said: "I'm so tired, he hasn't slept more than two hours a day recently, and with the long-distance travel, even an iron man can't bear it." ”

"Then take him back to rest, I'm here." Concubine Guo Xian said busily.

Lin Huan hurriedly thanked the prince, and another guard helped the prince leave Kunyi Palace.

When the prince returned to the East Palace, it was evening, when the sunset dyed the sky red, and the East Palace under the sunset suddenly had a dreamlike beauty.

After learning the news of the prince's return, the entire East Palace was boiling, especially the palace maids, who all hid on the prince's path to peek.

At this time, the prince was a little more sober, so he walked to his residence by himself.

He knew that there were countless eyes staring at him along the way, but instead of feeling the slightest pride or pride, he felt a faint disgust.

The prince walked briskly with a headache and a cold face, and soon entered his bedroom.

When he entered the dormitory, he immediately fell to the bed.

In a daze, he seemed to hear someone talking to him, but he couldn't hear a word of what was being said.

After a while, he fell asleep again.

But this time, he didn't sleep long before he woke up, because his throat hurt like a fire, he couldn't even swallow saliva, and his nose was stuffed, so he could only breathe through his mouth.

The doctor soon arrived, prescribed a lot of Chinese medicine, and carefully instructed Lin Jian on how to cook and take the medicine, and then left.

As night approaches, the hot and dry air becomes cooler.

The prince was dazed, waking up and falling asleep again, but never spoke.

In the dead of night, the prince woke up again, opened his eyes and looked around.

I saw two personal palace maids waiting in front of his bed, but they both closed their eyes and pointed straight like chickens pecking rice.

The prince wanted to ask them to bring him a cup of hot water, but although his mouth could move, his throat could not make a sound.

He tried several times, but he still couldn't speak, so he took a brush at the head of the bed and gently poked Yaoxue's left hand.

Yaoxue immediately woke up and asked, "Is Your Highness awake?" What does His Highness need? ”

The prince gestured to her to drink water.

Yaoxue knew about it and immediately went to pour him a glass of water.

But the water was cold.

The prince frowned, waved his hand at Yaoxue, and motioned for Yaoxue to hand over paper and pen.

Yaoxue received the order and did so.

The prince wrote on the paper: "Boiling water. ”

Yao Xue was stunned and hurriedly poured him a cup of boiling water.
