Chapter 163: The Situation

The book will be completed in about two months, and the new book is already being prepared, so please pay attention to it

Chu Zihou is a bold and careful person, and he is good at hiding his thoughts, so he is far from being as simple as outsiders see.

Chu Zican has learned how powerful he is, but he doesn't know much about him as a person, after all, the two haven't lived together for eighteen years.

Therefore, except for Emperor Guangzhao and Shen Xizhen, it is difficult for others to understand Chu Zihou's thoughts.

Chu Zihou once said to Shen Xizhen: In this world, as long as you understand me, it is enough, except for you, I will not bother to please anyone.

Yes, Shen Xizhen is the first person who can make him completely open up. Even his father, who loved him in every way, had never been so close to his heart.

Love has such power.

Chu Zihou took this bowl of hot medicinal soup and walked calmly towards the Heart Cultivation Palace.

"Is the pot ready?" Seeing him come in with the medicine, Chu Zican raised his eyes and asked, by the way, as a greeting.

"Hmm." Chu Zihou nodded at him slightly, with a faint smile on his face. He walked slowly to the table and carefully placed the medicine on the table.

The medicinal soup is still very hot, and you need to wait until it is cold before you can drink it.

"The second brother has worked hard to boil the medicine, you might as well go to the bedroom and take a nap, and leave the matter of feeding the medicine to me." Chu Zican spoke again.

"No need, eldest brother, this is what I should do, compared to the hard work of eldest brother who has been waiting in front of my father's bed day and night recently, what is my little work?" Chu Zihou spoke warmly and gently. He is not a fool, and he knows that this is a critical moment for the two brothers to fight wits and courage. He didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble because of a bowl of medicinal soup.

Chu Zican was not reluctant, and smiled at him and said, "Then there is Second Brother Lao." "On the surface, I am happy, but I am depressed in my heart.

Three years ago, he didn't take this second brother very seriously. He felt that he was just a low-key, humble and somewhat reserved person, and because of this, he did not feel that this brother would pose a threat to him.

It wasn't until his uncle told him about what the physiognomy said and saw Chu Zihou's progress in the past three years that he suddenly realized that he was suddenly afraid.

Since the year before, he found that Chu Zihou was not a person who only knew how to blindly retreat, on the contrary, Chu Zihou was very stubborn in what he thought he should do. And it can be carried out tenaciously.

Chu Zihou was just like Emperor Guangzhao when he was young.

But this is troublesome, Chu Zican said secretly in his heart.

The second brother is stubborn, and no one can persuade him, what if he does the same in the future in Shen Xizhen's affairs or even worse? Chu Zican's whole body unconsciously shivered.

But at that time I was the emperor! Chu Zican reminded himself again.

As the king of a country, why should he be so afraid of his younger brother who is much less powerful than himself?

The corners of Chu Zican's mouth rose slightly.

………………

As soon as Empress Gina, who had returned from the temple incense, heard that Chu Zihou was back, she hurried to the Heart Cultivation Palace.

As soon as she entered, she pounced on him and said, "Hou'er." Before he could cry, he couldn't cry. Chu Zican, who was guarding in front of Emperor Guangzhao's couch, turned over slightly.

"The Queen Mother. You've lost a lot of weight! Chu Zihou said distressedly.

"I'm fine." Empress Gina said as she wiped her tears.

It took seventeen days before and after Chu Zihou went to the hinterland of Lingqiu to collect medicine, and in these seventeen days, Empress Gina was worried every day, first, for fear that the emperor would not wake up, and secondly, for fear that Chu Zican would send someone to assassinate Chu Zihou halfway. Therefore, every day is spent in fear and fear. It's no wonder if you're not emaciated.

Now that she saw Chu Zihou coming back safely, the heart she was holding was temporarily relaxed, and she was naturally ecstatic.

But because Chu Zican was beside her, she had to hide her heart in advance.

The mother and son sat down in front of Emperor Guangzhao's couch, forming a straight line with Chu Zican's seat, and the two whispered a few words to Chu Zican.

Suddenly, Queen Gina felt that not only her son Chu Zihou was pitiful, but Chu Zican, as the crown prince, was even more pitiful. He has had limited space since he was born, so he can only rush forward. I have to harden my heart before I have a stake.

It's not that he doesn't want to be merciful, but he knows that once he is merciful, he may not even be able to take care of his own life, so he can only choose to be ruthless.

In such a comparison, Queen Gina suddenly felt that Chu Zihou still had a lot of extra choices, and her heart suddenly became as clear as a mirror.

She said to the prince: "The prince has worked hard lately! "That's from the bottom of my heart.

Chu Zican couldn't figure out the intention behind her words for a while, so he only replied lightly: "It's not hard." ”

Empress Gina wanted to say something more to dispel the prince's wariness of Chu Zihou, but when the words came to her lips, she felt that there was no need to be honest, because the emperor was still there, and there were some things that were not suitable to say more, so she held back.

But in her heart, she felt that the prince was a little too unavoidable, and she hoped that he could relax and not keep a tight face every day.

However, she finally couldn't help but say these words, because she suddenly remembered the prince's mother, Shi Wenci, and her heart suddenly felt a little stuffy as if she had been hit by something.

She didn't stop paying attention to Chu Zican, but turned to Emperor Guangzhao.

Emperor Guangzhao was still asleep.

She looked a little uneasy.

…………

Empress Gina stayed here until it was dark, and then returned to her bedchamber.

Chu Ziyao also ran over directly after class.

Chu Zihou turned his head and said to Chu Zican: "Big brother, change me to be on duty tonight, you go back and sleep well." ”

"No, no, no, I have decided to guard my father like this until his body is healed." Chu Zican hurriedly said. At this moment, he wouldn't give Chu Zihou and Emperor Guangzhao a chance to be alone so lightly.

"Then I'll move in and sleep with you tonight." Chu Zihou said with a smile. He knew this reason, Chu Zican was not easy to refuse.

Sure enough, although Chu Zican was not very happy in his heart, he still did not show any thought on the surface, and only smiled and nodded at Chu Zihou.

After all, this is the father's room, and as the sons of the father, naturally any of them can stay and take care of the father.

At night, there were only four people left in the Heart Cultivation Palace: Chu Zican, Chu Zihou, Chu Ziyao and Emperor Guangzhao.

And Emperor Guangzhao was still asleep.

Only his three sons were awake at the moment, but none of them spoke, each thinking about his own thoughts.

Because of Emperor Guangzhao's illness, the relationship between the three brothers seemed to be much colder than before.

In the quiet study of the Hou Ye's Mansion, Shen Xizhen was still reading quietly under the lamp, and she was planning the next path while reading.

Shen Xibin knocked softly outside the door.

"Brother, why haven't you slept so late?" Shen Xizhen hurriedly put down the book and asked with a smile at him.

"I saw from afar that the light was still on in the study, so I came over and had a look." Shen Xibin walked over and touched her head and said, then sat down on the chair next to her.

"Brother, is there something wrong?"

"Sister, can you test the next situation?" Shen Xibin asked with a sigh. (To be continued......)
