The next day, Empress Gu received the news that Concubine Zheng Guifei had woken up.

Empress Gu secretly breathed a sigh of relief and asked in a low voice, "How is Concubine Zheng now?" "If Concubine Zheng is really dead, there will be no way to end this time. It's good news to wake up.

The lady in law replied respectfully: "The slave heard that the concubine woke up and drank the medicine and fell asleep. The doctors said that the concubine's body was damaged and her vitality was greatly damaged, and she had to recuperate with peace of mind in the future. ”

Empress Gu's eyes flashed, and she asked, "How long do you have to recuperate?" ”

The lady smiled apologetically: "This slave doesn't know very well. ”

Empress Gu was silent for a moment before she lightly ordered: "Pass on the message of the palace and let those imperial doctors take good care of Concubine Zheng." What herbal supplements are needed, just open your mouth. ”

The lady in law replied and retreated.

Empress Gu thought for a moment, got up and went to the emperor's bedroom. The emperor couldn't afford to be ill, but now he has added the matter of Concubine Zheng, and his face is even darker. Empress Gu looked at it, she was shocked and felt that it was not a taste, and comforted her softly: "Concubine Zheng has woken up safely, and as long as she takes good care of her, she will soon get better." The emperor doesn't have to worry too much. ”

The emperor naturally received the news that Concubine Zheng Guifei had woken up, and sighed lightly when he heard this: "With the third emperor always accompanying her, her mood should be better." ”

Referring to the three princes, Empress Gu naturally asked: "Concubine Zheng is probably going to recuperate for a while, does the emperor plan to let the third prince stay in the palace to take care of her?" The question was very subtle, but the meaning of the words was very clear.

The emperor glanced at Empress Gu deeply: "What does the queen think?" ”

Empress Gu sighed in her heart, if the emperor intended to let the three princes leave Beijing. I would never have asked this question just now......

Empress Gu's heart flashed, but her face was very calm: "Although I have made a holy decree, I should leave Beijing as soon as possible." However, we must not ignore human morality. Let's wait for Zheng Guifei's body to recover! ”

The emperor's face really looked better: "What you said also makes sense." Just do what you say! ”

…… Queen Gu responded with a casual smile, but secretly gritted her teeth in her heart. Zheng Guifei's move was born after death, which really shook the emperor's mind. Although the emperor still didn't go to see her in person, he promised the third prince to stay in the palace for a few more days. As the saying goes, if it's late, it will change, and it won't be good if there are any waves again.

Although he knows this, the hateful thing is that he can't expose this layer, and he has to follow the emperor's wishes.

Empress Gu squeezed out a smile, and discussed with the emperor the candidate for the imperial doctor to take care of Concubine Zheng.

The emperor was a little tired, waved his hand casually and said, "This little thing will be handed over to you." I can trust you! ”

A word can be trusted to you. made Queen Gu almost laugh. It's a shame that the emperor can say such things without changing his face. She and Concubine Zheng Guifei had already torn their faces, if it weren't for the emperor's face, it would not be easy for her to make things difficult for a half-dead concubine after this dignified palace. She didn't have to shoot head-on at all, she just secretly assigned someone to deal with Concubine Zheng. Now the emperor has handed over this matter to her in a grand manner, which makes it difficult for her to start......

The same thing, in the eyes of different people, has a completely different meaning.

At least, in the eyes of the third prince, the emperor asked Empress Gu to take care of Concubine Zheng's food, clothing. It was a warning to him.

As long as he has any abnormal moves, it is equivalent to giving Empress Gu a ready-made handle, and he also has a righteous and bright reason to deal with Concubine Zheng Guifei! Even if he could stay in the capital for a few more days, it would be useless......

Over the next month or so. The third prince has always insisted on taking care of Concubine Zheng's body in person.

Concubine Zheng Guifei walked through the death once, and she was worried again, and her body did not recover quickly. No matter how good herbs and supplements are. It won't cure her heart disease.

Over the past month or so, the bruises on her neck have faded a lot. But he still can't get out of bed and walk around. However, in front of the three princes. She refused to reveal these heavy thoughts, but often comforted and explained: "Zhang'er, your father is willing to let you stay in the capital, which is a good thing." In a few days, I will go to your father to intercede again, and he will definitely not let you go to Fandi......"

"Mother!" The third prince unexpectedly interrupted Concubine Zheng Guifei: "Your body has gradually improved, and you will be fine as long as you rest and recuperate for a year and a half in the future." It's useless for me to stay any longer. So, I want to say goodbye to my father today......"

Concubine Zheng Guifei's body was shocked, and she looked at the third prince in disbelief: "Zhang'er, what did you say?" ”

The third prince's face was very calm: "Father, the emperor is gracious, let me stay in the palace for more than a month." I was able to take care of my mother for a while, and I was very content to see her get better. After such a long delay, it was time for me to go. ”

Concubine Zheng Guifei looked at the third prince in a daze, her mind was blank, and her lips trembled: "Why do you want to go?" Your father has already agreed for you to stay, why do you want to leave? ”

The third prince stared at Concubine Zheng and said in a low voice: "Mother, what is the intention of the father, can't you see it?" For more than a month, he has sent people to visit you every day, yes, but he has never seen you in person. and never summoned me. He knew that you and the queen were mortal enemies, but he ordered the queen to take care of your food, clothing, and daily life. If I don't know how to move on my own, waiting for my father or queen to open my mouth, it will be too uninteresting. "At that time, Concubine Zheng's life in the palace will be even more difficult.

The third prince had obviously thought it through for a long time, and his remarks were reasonable.

Of course, it is impossible for Zheng Guifei not to see these facts. just subconsciously turned a blind eye: "No, your father won't treat you like this." I'll go and beg him now, and you will go with me, and your father will definitely be soft-hearted......"

"Mother, be sober!" The third prince sighed lightly and interrupted Concubine Zheng: "You should know very well in your heart what kind of person your father is. Even if you still have pity for you, and you still have some feelings for my son, it is far inferior to his country. He has already made up his mind to choose the crown prince, and he will never be soft-hearted to me again. ”

Concubine Zheng was dumbfounded, and her eyes were already red.

"For my mother's sake, and for my own sake, I have to go." There was a hint of tiredness and self-deprecation in the voice of the third prince: "I thought I was very smart, but I didn't expect that in the end, I still lost a lot." ”

Zheng Guifei's tears flowed down: "It's me, a useless mother, who can't protect you." It's useless ......."

She made a fuss about life and death, but in the end she still couldn't keep her son!

Seeing that Concubine Zheng Guifei was crying silently and bursting into tears, the third prince's heart was also sour and unspeakable, and he held Concubine Zheng's hand tightly: "Mother, you have done too much for me." From now on, your son is not by your side, you must take good care of yourself. ”

Concubine Zheng couldn't say a word, crying and hugging the third prince. Tears quickly blurred his vision, soaking in front of the chest of the third prince.

The third prince hugged Concubine Zheng tightly, and two tears slowly slipped from the corners of his eyes.

……

"Father, the mother's health has been getting better day by day, and the sons can rest assured." The third prince knelt on the side of the dragon couch and said respectfully: "Thank you father for your kindness and allowing your son to accompany your mother for so long." The sons also bid farewell to their father, and will leave the palace later, leaving Beijing tomorrow morning. ”

The emperor sat on the dragon couch and stared at the three princes with reddish eyes but a very calm face. The mood fluctuates and cannot be calmed down for a long time. But in the end, he didn't say anything, just lightly advised: "When you go to the domain in the future, you must be careful in everything." ”

The third prince answered, then raised his head and pleaded: "The son has nothing to worry about, only that his father and the emperor can treat their mother and concubine well in the future." The mother concubine also cherished her sons, and she was confused for a while before she was rash and looked for a short time. But her heart for her father has never changed. I also hope that my father will think that my mother has served you for many years, and don't be angry with my mother. ”

The emperor sighed lightly: "What kind of character she is, I know better than you." You can leave with confidence, with me here, I will never allow others to bully her at will. It's just that the original love has been almost tossed by one thing after another. There will be no pampering in the future.

Hearing such a promise, the heart of the third prince finally relaxed a little.

As long as the mother can live safely, it is more important than anything else. In this palace, it is already a rare luck to be able to enjoy the glory of old age. As for the favor of his father, he can't ask for it anymore......

The third prince respectfully kowtowed to the emperor three times, and then got up to leave.

After leaving the emperor's bedroom, the third prince did not rush out of the palace, but went to Fengyi Hall to see Queen Gu.

The third prince just went to say goodbye to the emperor, but it has not yet reached the ears of Queen Gu. Because of this, Empress Gu was a little surprised by the arrival of the third prince, and smiled quietly: "You are not busy taking care of Concubine Zheng, why did you come to this palace, the Fengyi Palace." ”

The third prince knelt down without hesitation: "Erchen will leave the capital and go to the domain on the same day." So I came to say goodbye to the queen! ”

Empress Gu's city government was also surprised: "Did your father know about this?" ”

The third prince smiled faintly: "The son has already resigned to his father, and the father has also granted the son of a request to leave Beijing tomorrow." Erchen wanted to ask the queen to take care of her mother in the future. ”

Empress Gu was dumbfounded.

The third prince raised his head, his eyes were unprecedentedly bright: "In the future, I will not be in the capital, leaving only the mother concubine alone in the palace." The queen mother is broad-minded, so she can't even tolerate a concubine who has fallen out of favor! ”

This move didn't have much effect on Queen Gu, she smiled lightly: "This may not be. (To be continued......)
