Chapter 239: Return to the people

"Your Majesty, have you been afraid of something in your heart, that's why you want them to disappear from your eyes so much?" Hua Yueyu gently walked behind Emperor Guangxuan who was standing by the window and asked.

His figure looked so lonely, so heavy.

She knew that he hadn't been happy since he ascended the throne.

If he had known that this would be the case, would he have fought for this throne so desperately?

She reached out and gently hugged his arm and rested her head on his back.

Emperor Guangxuan sighed, reached out to hold her hand, and said softly: "Who knows, sometimes there is no line between love and hate. ā€

"Have you ever thought about asking them back now? The concubine felt that instead of blindly being afraid, it was better to face them directly, anyway, you are now the king of Xi Kingdom, and you are responding to every call in Xi Kingdom, where are they your opponents? ā€

What she meant was that she hoped he wouldn't have to suffer himself for being afraid of them.

And he thinks she is too womanly kind.

So he didn't answer her words, patted her hand and said, "I want to go to the study to read a book for a while, you can go back to Kunyi Palace first." ā€

But Emperor Guangxuan, who walked into the study to read, did not come out until the sun went down.

Originally, Guo Gonggong went in to pour him tea, but he later said that he wanted to read a book quietly for a while alone, and let Guo Gonggong wait outside, so Guo Gonggong has been waiting outside in a regular manner, until the sun goes down and it is time for dinner, Guo Gonggong hurriedly went in to invite Emperor Guangxuan back to Zichen Hall for dinner. Unexpectedly, when he entered, he saw Emperor Guangxuan lying on the desk with a pale face.

Gonggong Guo hurriedly called someone to ask for a royal doctor.

"The symptoms this time are different from three months ago, as if the blood in the body is not smooth." The imperial doctor said.

If it's just because of poor blood, it's not a big problem. But fortunately, it was discovered in time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

The Flower Moon Ballad stayed by the side of Emperor Guangxuan all the time.

But Emperor Guangxuan never came to his senses.

Within half a month, the most powerful doctors in the whole Xi Kingdom came all over the place. It didn't make him sober up.

Is this his fate?

Doomed to get the throne but lose your health? Kazuki thought sadly.

If that were the case, she would rather he not be emperor.

But it's too late to talk about it now.

And Chu Zihou and Shen Xizhen had already learned about Emperor Guangxuan's illness, and they lived in a small hotel by the sea at that time.

Chu Zihou's expression was a little heavy when he heard the news, and he hurriedly asked Shen Xizhen: "What do you think is the reason for his illness this time?" ā€

"I can't explain it clearly, but maybe this is his fate, maybe he is sick this year." Shen Xizhen said, reaching out to help him cut his hair.

I was touched by her thoughtful action. He held her tightly in his arms.

"Lady, perhaps, our spring is coming."

Shen Xizhen understood what he meant. Nodding.

……………

A month has passed in the blink of an eye, and Emperor Guangxuan still hasn't come to his senses.

The people of the entire Xi Kingdom were boiling, and everyone began to discuss the question of who would succeed to the throne.

The crown prince is only two years old, so it is naturally impossible for him to take on the heavy responsibility of governing the country. And the ballad of the flower moon is a gentle and virtuous person. He does not have the courage to listen to politics. So. Who is the ideal successor has become the most hotly discussed question.

Chu Ziyao only felt that he had a chance at this time.

However, he has always been lazy in political affairs, and he has never done anything practical for the people, so he can't meet everyone's requirements at all. It's just that in the absence of any news of Chu Zihou and Shen Xizhen, Chu Ziyao is the only possible candidate to succeed to the throne.

Therefore, some ministers who saw the wind and steered the rudder hurriedly came to curry favor with Chu Ziyao and volunteered to give him advice.

"I know that the third prince is a dashing man and has never coveted the throne. But now that you can't escape this situation, you might as well act sooner. We will follow you to the death. ā€

"Yes, as long as the third prince gives an order, we will not hesitate to go up the sword mountain and go down to the sea of fire."

"Okay, I haven't thought about it yet, and maybe Emperor Guangxuan will wake up tomorrow, anyway, if he doesn't die for a day, it's impossible for me to seek his throne." Chu Ziyao said lazily.

He had long seen that his brother was not happy at all after becoming emperor.

He didn't want to live as painfully as Emperor Guangxuan.

And Jiang Weibai also persuaded him: "We are living a small life, so don't go to that troubled water, if we don't do a good job at that time, we will cause death, why bother?" ā€

Chu Ziyao thought about it, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

Ministers and members of the think tank gathered.

Everyone thinks that Chu Zihou, the king of Qingping, is the best candidate to succeed him.

But no one knows where he is now.

"Now it's time to post a notice across the country looking for them." There is a minister who mentions yƬ.

"Yes, I suspect that they may have known about this by now, but they are unwilling to take the initiative to come back without the court's statement." Another minister seconded.

Therefore, they sent people to post a notice on the city wall on the same day, which read: "Looking for the king of Qingping and Guang'anhou."

For a while, there was an endless stream of people pretending to be Chu Zihou and Shen Xizhen.

It's a pity that the imperial court found Chu Ziyao and Jiang Weibai to verify it personally, so any fake person can be seen through by them, and later, people with this mentality don't dare to come.

Naturally, these news were quickly known by Chu Zihou and Shen Xizhen.

"Shall we go back?" Chu Zihou asked Shen Xizhen.

"Naturally, I want to go back." Shen Xizhen had already seen that Chu Zihou wanted to go back and want to ascend to the throne to show his ambitions, so of course she had to support him.

So the two of them restored their original appearance, put on their usual clothes, and rode back to the palace.

Seeing them come back, Hua Yueyu's eyes flashed a complicated look, but she quickly covered it up again, and she hurriedly said to them, "You came back at the right time......

Chu Zihou walked up to Emperor Guangxuan and looked at it, and found that Emperor Guangxuan was unconscious.

He shouted softly: "Your Majesty, brother, Weichen is back." ā€

Emperor Guangxuan was already unconscious, so naturally he couldn't hear his call.

Chu Zi sighed heavily.

Is this providential?

went around and around, but finally left a chance for himself.

Chu Zihou suddenly didn't hate Emperor Guangxuan for a moment.

It's just that he didn't let himself be emotional, he called the relevant ministers and began to plan for succession.

Looking at Chu Zihou, who was discussing things with the ministers in high spirits, Shen Xizhen suddenly found that he had actually been the material of the emperor all along, and when he sat there, he was so energetic and high-spirited.

It was just because he deliberately hid himself. (To be continued......)
