When he stood up, all around him, whether they were officers or soldiers, knelt down on one knee...... The update is so fast.

And when he was about to step out of the big tent, his front feet had just picked up, and before he could fall, there was a sound of "booming" neat steps on the street not far away. When everyone heard this, they saw a large group of foot soldiers running forward.

Shangguan Ying, the commander of the 'guard' of the Forbidden Palace, only thought that someone from the military department was coming at first glance, but after calming down and taking a few more looks, he recognized the figure of Yin Jiang Can of Kyoto Prefecture from the front of the infantry phalanx.

Jiang Can rushed here, but he didn't ride a horse all the way. He is not a person who practices martial arts, his body is limited, and he came to this last stretch of the road roughly by relying on the two lieutenants on the left and right to carry both shoulders, and he dragged and dragged all the way. Of course, it's not that he didn't want to come, so he was dragged hard, he really couldn't run.

When he was still a hundred steps away from the large army tent that had been temporarily erected in front of the ruins, he only saw the corner of the tent in the corner of the Kyoto Prefecture, Yin Jiangcan, who already had an idea in his heart, and His Majesty was definitely in that tent.

And when he was close to the big tent fifty paces away, Jiang Can's line of sight was finally enough to see the people under the tent clearly, and once again determined the position where His Majesty was standing, his face was full of complex expressions of self-blame and fear. At this moment, he deeply realized what a test of shame it was to have such a variety of expressions on his face after running wildly for several miles, and in a physical state that was about to die.

He couldn't see his face at this time, so he experienced a new feeling while ignoring a more important thing.

-- In such extreme circumstances, it is impossible for a person to put on these expressions perfectly, unless these feelings are really from the heart.

When he was still about ten steps away from the two people standing in the center of the officers and soldiers kneeling under the big tent, Yin Jiang Can of Kyoto Prefecture finally gritted his teeth secretly, shook off the two lieutenants who were running with his left and right arms around him, bent his knees weakly, and knelt out towards His Majesty in the tent.

Of course, the two lieutenant generals knew what Master Jiang meant by shaking his hand, and while they hurriedly let go, they did not continue to run forward, and knelt down on the spot.

"Plop" knelt down in front of His Majesty, and Jiang Can, the governor of Kyoto Prefecture, couldn't cry anymore, salivating and snot--in fact, he was running too 'excited' along the way, and he was 'excited' -- after whimpering a few times, Jiang Can's voice was broken and he shouted hoarsely: "Your Majesty, the sinner's rescue is late, although the sinner is unforgivable......

Wang Chi had just been buried in the rubble for a while, and at this moment, the inexplicable internal injuries that erupted in his 'chest' and abdomen began to faintly haunt him again, urging him to feel a little uneasy. Just as the 'waiter' Lang Bian Shuhe of the Ministry of Rites figured out in his heart, although Wang Chi was not angry at this time, his mood was really not much better.

He looked at the chief executive of the imperial capital who was kneeling in front of him, this person seemed to be gasping and about to vomit out his lungs, but he looked at the expression on this person's face, but he suddenly felt a little bored in his heart.

But this trace of personal affection was quickly suppressed in his heart. He didn't want to have too much trouble with this Lord Yin at this moment, this place, including venting his negative feelings.

Because he was restraining his feelings, as soon as Wang Chifu spoke, his voice still revealed a hint of coldness: "Forgive whose sins, can a person say it?" ”

When Jiang Can heard this, his shoulders shook slightly.

Nanzhao was a dynasty with strict laws, but ...... Some of His Majesty's henchmen and officials have also done things like cutting first and then playing!

Jiang Can was cautious about saying anything more, but Wang Chi was too lazy to say more nonsense, so he only waved his hand lightly: "Let's be even!" ”

"Xie Majesty xià......" Jiang Can hesitated slightly, and finally stood up straight. And until this time, the rapid breath in his 'chest' had not yet been even, and he really wanted to breathe a sigh at this time, but after quickly raising his eyes, he dispelled this thought.

Ignoring the rhetoric prepared by the Kyoto Prefecture Yin at this time, and without giving any more instructions, Wang Chi continued to walk outside the big tent. Behind him, hundreds of officers and soldiers "huhulala" got up one after another.

Dozens of 'attendant' guards trained by Li Gai personally gathered around the emperor and walked ten steps away, and the two hundred 'attendant' guards of the forbidden palace, as well as the hundreds of government soldiers who were later brought by Yin of Kyoto Prefecture, were followed by Shangguan Ying. The hundreds of guards in the Hengtai Pavilion block were at the end, and they had no right to set foot in the forbidden area of the palace, and at most they had to stop escorting the emperor out of this block.

Kyoto Prefecture Yin Jiang Can followed behind the emperor with a somewhat stunned look in his eyes, he was a little incomprehensible, no one called a chariot for His Majesty just now? What the hell just happened? Jiang Can was a little suspicious of the news he had heard from his subordinates about the emperor's assassination in the Hengtai Pavilion neighborhood.

And just when the word "chariot" appeared in Jiang Can's mind, hundreds of steps away from the street, a large group of people came.

In this group, there were not only foot soldiers, but also infantry cavalry, shieldmen, and crossbowmen, but the most conspicuous among this group was the eight-horse six-wheeled chariot covered with a gold-colored brocade curtain...... It's empty!

Jiang Can's heart was slightly relieved, just waiting for His Majesty to get into the chariot, he didn't have to follow so closely, or he didn't have to bear the pressure on his heart all the way to the palace on foot, and he could withdraw halfway.

Compared with Jiang Can's focus when he saw the Imperial Brigade, Wang Chi saw the group of people rushing towards him, and he saw a young man at the front of the angry horse whipping at the first time.

The second prince Wang Hong!

Wang Hong's clothes were slightly 'messy', his face was a little pale, his hand holding the horse's reins was faintly protruding, and the hand holding the horsewhip was wrapped in thick white gauze, in order to hold the whip in his hand, the wound wrapped under the white gauze had cracked, and blood oozed out of the cloth.

It is always easy to feel warm to see the person closest to him after just experiencing a thrilling adventure, Wang Chi's heart softened slightly, and then he saw a dazzling look on the hand of the second son holding the whip.

His eyebrows twitched rapidly, vaguely distressed, and silently said: This stupid child.

The second prince, Wang Hong, saw his father walking with help immediately, and his heart was also tight. Before the horse could steady, he jumped down and ran to his father despite the numbing pain from the sharp impact of his ankle on the ground.

"Father!"

"Why are you here?" Wang Chi raised his hand and held it on the wrist of his second son's injured hand, and saw that there was also a layer of fine sweat on his forehead, and he couldn't help but admonish again: "The injury on his hand has not healed yet, so he rushes like this, and he doesn't know how to take care of his body." ”

The second prince, Wang Hong, didn't care about these at all, and didn't seem to feel the pain of the wound on his hand cracking and bleeding again, he just saw his father, first carefully examined it with his eyes, and then grabbed his father's hand and asked anxiously: "Father, are you okay?" ”

"It's fine." Wang Chi smiled slightly, and looked at the second son's face, who was already weak, and his face was slightly pale, so he smiled and reproached: "Why do you have to ride a horse when you come with a chariot?" If you go back like this, your mother should be anxious again. ”

After being reprimanded, Wang Hong was in a relaxed mood, and said slowly: "Erchen came here to welcome his father back to the palace with the wishes of his mother. ”

"Okay." Wang Chi nodded, holding his second son's wrist with a little force, "You come up too, let's go home together." ”

Wang Chi's words specifically mentioned the word "home", and the other meaning in this sentence is very clear. The second prince, Wang Hong, heard this, his eyes were slightly hot, and he didn't say any more nonsense on the ceremonial scene, just like the son of an ordinary family when he heard his father's call, he responded very kindly, followed his father's footsteps and got into the car together, and sat side by side.

Leaving Li Gai's hand holding a strong palm, although Wang Chi sat on the spacious and comfortable imperial chariot, and no longer had to expend the strength that had become a burden on his current tired body to maintain his standing posture, he still did not feel relaxed at the moment. There was a 'chaos' in his mind, and the hand he held on his second son's wrist suddenly tightened.

The second prince, Wang Hong, felt a sudden bone-splitting pain in his wrist, and the green tendons under the thin layer of skin on the back of his hand were even more prominent, but he just frowned, then took a deep breath and endured the pain.

Silently exhaled, he looked sideways at Li Gai, who had just helped his father into the car, and was still standing beside the chariot at this time, and said calmly: "Commander Li, please go with me." ”

Li Gai understood the meaning in the eyes of the second prince, and nodded slightly.

Immediately afterwards, the 'squire' guard led the horse over, and he stepped up, and took the whip handed by the 'squire' guard in his hand, but he didn't use it, but just shook the reins, and controlled the horse's walking speed to keep pace with the royal chariot, and his one man and one rider always walked on the side of the imperial chariot.

The group walked in the direction of the palace, leaving behind the ruins of the "Yuwu Pavilion" and the only "female" assassin left alive in today's assassination operation.

The Kyoto garrison commander Li Gai escorted the emperor back to the palace, but he only took one shadow guard and five swordsmen, except for one shadow guard, two short sword guards and two shield guards who were the first to escort several wounded people to medical treatment, and five short sword guards and eight shield guards were left at the ruin site.

Obviously, Ligai took this 'female' Assassin very seriously. Because when Li Gai had just arrived near the "Yuwu Pavilion" that was already on fire, he left a short time before making a move at this 'girl' and quietly observed and speculated on her. He believed that the 'female' Assassin was most likely a minor leader among the Assassins, and he was eager to get some valuable information from the Assassins.

The Assassin "clean-up" work in the inner city of Kyoto has been going on for almost half a month, and because the operation process is deliberately low-key, it has not had much impact on the lives of the residents of the city. However, for the sweepers, the harvest in these ten days was not ideal, because all the remnants of the assassins that could be searched were corpses, and those who were not corpses had escaped.

But today, I finally caught a living, and it wasn't the kind of dead soldier who could casually lose his life for the killer organization.

At the same time as this harvest, Li Gai also had a preparatory consideration in his heart, to keep this still alive 'female' assassin and send her back to the Commander's Mansion to be imprisoned pending trial, in addition to preventing her from trying to kill herself halfway, but also to prevent her from being killed by her peers on the way back.

In the affairs that Li Gai took over, whenever there were two things related to death and life, the two extreme situations of leaving the mouth alive and extinguishing the mouth were often 'intertwined', which was also due to his years of training, and his way of thinking was also somewhat accustomed to jumping between the two assumptions at any time.

If it weren't for the fact that he wanted to send the emperor back to the palace, there would definitely be no further forks in the way, and Li Gai would definitely put the 'female' assassin in his sight, and personally send her back to the Commander's Mansion without leaving at all, so that she could make an exception and taste the treatment of the emperor's travel before being interrogated.

And although Li Gai had more important things on his shoulders and couldn't give this 'female' assassin a ride, he also left more than half of the guards he had trained with his 'fine' heart, plus the officers and soldiers of Kyoto Prefecture were also summoned by him, so the team escorting the 'female' assassin back to Kyoto Prefecture was also a vast 'dang' and 'dang' queue of hundreds of people.

This battle was a real battle, and it was several times more than the officers and soldiers who were sent out to detain prisoners on the day Wan Defu, the former official of the Ministry of Justice, was beheaded three years ago.

Three years ago, it seemed that the officers and soldiers who escorted the prisoner cart to the court were sent to the court because of the lack of dispatch, so that Wan Defu, a prisoner on death row, was stabbed to death by several killers on the way to death before he was carried to the place of death by the prisoner car, causing him to eat two more times than beheading.

On that day, seeing that Wan Defu would inevitably die, it seemed redundant for the killers to do so. But only a few officials of the Criminal Department who secretly interrogated Wan Defu knew in their hearts that this death row prisoner still had something that should be spit out and swallowed, so it was up to him to see if he could let go of his mouth after seeing the guillotine. That's why someone has to kill him, even if it's just a little faster for him to die.

Today, it is out of concern that Rigai has sent more men to escort a 'female' Assassin into prison. Thinking that Wan Defu was more or less interrogated in prison back then, and died on the way to execution, for the interrogator who still had a trace of expectation, the loss was almost negligible. But look at this 'female' assassin, the trial hasn't started yet, so you must hurry up.

However, there are always many variables in the world that cannot be controlled by manpower, and even many strategists who are accustomed to 'manipulating' and controlling affairs as their specialty are often caught in the middle of incidents, and the 'door' of unstable control is not controlled.

Li Gai felt that the manpower he had arranged for the escort was already too sufficient, even if he encountered a killer who jumped out halfway to kill him, it was enough to deal with it. The worst result may be that the soldiers on his side will be slightly damaged, but with his own trained personal soldier 'attendants' in the team, this kind of personnel loss should also be able to be quickly charged.

But what Li Gai never expected was that the soldiers he sent to escort the 'female' assassin were indeed attacked by the killer on the way, but the killer who came was only one person, and it was also a 'female' person.

This 'woman' was not dressed in black and 'covered' with a black cloth on her face, she wore the clothes of an ordinary people's 'woman', walked towards the escort team of hundreds of people, broke the necks of a dozen soldiers with her bare hands, killed people without spilling half a drop of blood, and then took the 'female' assassin away.

Killing people shouldn't be difficult for her.

But she took the 'female' assassin alive with her.

It's not that a sword is going to kill her.

When Li Gai escorted Wang Chi back to the palace, rested for a while under a hexagonal pavilion in the Imperial Flower Garden, and was about to leave the palace to return to the Commander's Palace, one of his personal guards rushed to the palace first, and told him about the "chaotic" battle he had encountered on the way to escort the 'female' assassin.

When he heard the last word of this cronie's 'squire' guard, the bone china tea cup in Li Gai's hand had already turned into powder in the palm of his hand.

"A group of ......" Li Gai was furious, and he almost re-exported the word "rice bucket".

However, when he thought that Wang Chi was resting in the warm pavilion on the south side of this 'flower' garden, he narrowly suppressed his voice. The anger that was about to explode collided with the sudden restraint that made his usual steady breathing rhythm like a mountain rock jump a little.

The 'attendant' who was a close friend of his affairs had already changed his face in fright, and he knelt on the stone slab with a "bang".

After being silent for a moment, Li Gai summoned the 'squire' guard to get up and said in a deep voice: "Immediately ask the painter to draw the face of the 'female' thief, and the faces of the two 'female' thieves must be painted, and the whole city will be searched." This time, the search operation was no longer carried out in secret, and the order was sent to the 'gate' division of the city, and all the soldiers who had reported for leave today in the garrison of the city were at their posts, and additional guards were dispatched as quickly as possible. Once there is an abnormal movement, the net nail plate array! ”

"Yes!" The 'squire' guard hurriedly answered the order, but when he was about to retreat to pass the order, he turned his face back again when he had just turned around, and asked Xiao Yi: "Great Commander, is it captured alive or killed this time?" ”

"If you catch it alive, you will be counted as meritorious. If you can't catch it, the old and the new will be counted together! Li Gai's eyebrows furrowed angrily, "Go to the Commander's Mansion and send out all the people in the five groups." The official wants to see how the two 'female' thieves escape! ”

When the 'squire' guard heard this, his heart couldn't help jumping. He knew the methods of the five groups, and he didn't say anything more at the moment, and took the order to run.

Before leaving the palace and returning to the Commander's Palace, Li Gai had to see Emperor Wang Chi again. Because of the strange internal injuries on Wang Chi's body, he had to make sure again before leaving. This time, he estimated that he would not have time to enter the palace again in a day or two.

Try to put his steps very lightly, and when Li Gai walked into the warm pavilion where Wang Chi was resting, the first thing he saw was Wang Hong, the second prince, who was also walking lightly.

Wang Hong made a silent gesture towards Li Gai, who turned around and walked out of the warm pavilion side by side with him. After stepping out of the 'door' of the room, Wang Hong waved away the palace people who followed behind him.

Walking slowly between the twists and turns of the corridor of the 'flower' garden, and unconsciously walked to the hexagonal pavilion where Li Gai had just sat on, Wang Hong saw the broken porcelain slag on the stone table and the tea on the table at a glance, a trace of surprise slipped in his eyes, and he asked: "What bothered Uncle Li so angry?" ”

Leaving the eyes of the 'waiter' and 'female' palace people, Wang Hong naturally changed his official title to Li Gai.

A few years ago, when Li Gai was Wang Chi's shadow guard, he was also the most common "Uncle Hide" that Wang Hong saw, and the two formed a lot of love in those years in the palace.

For this, Wang Chi, as the emperor, is of course happy to see it. Li Gai is his brother and friend of Jin Lan, if he does not become the emperor, even if he achieves the position of the general of the border, it is very likely that his son will worship Li Gai as his righteous uncle.

As for Li Gai himself, when there are no other 'servants' around, he doesn't need to have too many responsibilities in terms of identity rules, so he also calmly accepted the second prince Wang Hong's closeness to his nephew. He has no wife or elder at home, no children and daughters under his knees, and he is middle-aged, and sometimes he thinks about this matter, and then transfers some feelings to the young man in front of him who he has watched grow up.

Regarding the rescue of the 'female' assassin, Li Gai was not prepared to say too much to Wang Hong, but he still 'handed over' everything to do by himself.

After a somewhat reluctant smile, Li Gai only picked one or two words about the 'female' assassin, and then his gaze stopped on Wang Hong's injured hand a few days ago, and when he spoke again, he changed the topic: "Old injuries become new injuries, but you must not be careless." ”

The second prince, Wang Hong, said with a smile: "It has been re-bandaged by the imperial doctor, and they have also told it like this, so it will not be in the way." ”

"Your qi 'color' is not very good, it is still the time when you were injured a few days ago, and it hurt your vitality. It's best to heal the injury at once and not recur it like today. Hmmm......" At the end of these words, there was a hint of hesitation in the tone of Li Gai, who had always been concise and clear, "If you are injured on your hand like this, you should hang your forearm with a strap, so that you can get better faster." ”

It had been years since he had been injured in a fight, and his memory of such experiences had blurred a lot.

But Wang Hong laughed when he heard this, nodded and said, "The imperial doctor said the same thing, but I think it's too unsightly to have a cloth ring around your neck." Wouldn't it be enough to just tuck your hands into your sleeves? ”

Li Gai looked at Wang Hong's left and right hands 'intertwined' and 'inserted' into the opposite cuffs, and suddenly smiled and said, "Then it has to be your sleeves wide enough." After Wang Hong, the nephew's generation, 'got' a sentence, Li Gai's mood slowed down a little, so he took advantage of the situation to take a sentence.

The uncle and nephew smiled at each other, and at the same time, they both read the meaning of "something" from each other's eyes, and gradually they both smiled separately. Both of them knew very well in their hearts that what happened in the Hengtai Pavilion neighborhood this afternoon could not be treated easily, and Li Gai at this time did not have any extra time to chat.

"How is Your Majesty's physical condition now?" Li Gai had something to hurry back to the Commander's Mansion to arrange, so he took the first step to ask about the things he was worried about on the emperor's side.

"When I came back, I just washed up and went to sleep. What should I say about what you are asking? The imperial doctor only said that because the emperor was buried in the ruins for a while, he lacked qi and injured his lungs, and choked on fireworks, so although there was no injury on the outside, he was burned in the internal organs, and he would have symptoms of heartache and need to recuperate for a while. When Wang Hong said this, a trace of doubt appeared in his eyes, and after a slight pause in his voice, he continued: "Listening to what Uncle Li just said, it seems that he also knows a little bit about medical science, so from Uncle Li's opinion, is the diagnosis of the imperial doctors accurate?" ”

Li Gai shook his head slightly and said: "I am a person who practices martial arts, and I have a more comprehensive understanding of the 'acupoints', and I can also know some skin and 'hair' for the diagnosis of pulse, but I have not studied the 'medicine' science and medicine like a real doctor." However, listening to what you just said, the imperial doctor's diagnosis is also decent, and His Majesty does need to recuperate now. ”

Hearing that Li Gai agreed with the imperial doctor's diagnosis, the suspicious 'color' in the eyes of the second prince Wang Hong not only did not subside, but increased, turning into a kind of almost questioning 'color', and his tone remained calm and said: "Is the accurate result like this?" You said the word 'decent', but I can't help but be suspicious. ”

In Li Gai's heart, the diagnosis of Wang Chi's injury did have a result that was different from the diagnosis of the imperial doctor, but he was not completely sure of the conclusion he had reached at this time, so it was inconvenient for him to immediately explain his point of view in front of Wang Hong.

He thought of the two guards who had probably suffered the same internal injuries as Wang Chi, and now that they were being treated in the Commander's Mansion, he had to go back and determine his suspicion of Wang Chi's injuries from the diagnosis of the two of them. He couldn't try Wang Chi's body, which was one of the reasons why he sent those two palace 'attendants' to the Commander's Mansion.

"His Majesty did suffer some internal injuries, and for those who practice martial arts, such things will inevitably happen occasionally." After a little consideration, Li Gai finally spoke, but only picked a few shallow words, temporarily reassuring Wang Hong, "Quiet recuperation is naturally the best way to recover, and this imperial doctor is not wrong." In addition, there were two guards who were injured almost at the same time as His Majesty. I need to go back and find out their injuries before I can be sure of something, and if Your Highness believes me, you will wait for me for another day. ”

Wang Hong suddenly sighed, and said in a slightly sandy voice: "Of course I believe in Uncle Li. ”

Knowing that Wang Chi's physical condition was quite stable at this time, and with a few words, the heart of the second prince Wang Hong was also stabilized, and Li Gai announced his resignation.

Wang Hong wanted to send Li Gai for a while, but he was politely dissuaded. Seeing Li Gai walk away quickly, in the corridor of the royal garden where the palace lights gradually turned on, Wang Hong's face gradually became cold, and his eyes showed a thick tiredness.

After sitting at the water-stained stone table under the hexagonal pavilion for a long time, he took a deep breath, got up slowly, and slowly walked to the warm pavilion to look at his father again, and then slowly came out, dragging heavy steps towards Huayang Palace.

After Wang Hong slowly left from the east 'gate' of the royal garden where the warm pavilion was located, not long after, two palace 'women' came in from the north 'gate' of the garden, each carrying a lantern with a glass lampshade in their hands, and then Concubine De's phoenix robe and deerskin thick-soled boots stepped in.

When there were still more than a dozen steps away from the 'door' of the Warm Pavilion, Concubine De waved her hand and left all the palace people who were surrounding her to serve in the corridor, and she stepped into the Warm Pavilion alone.

After Wang Chi returned to the palace, he did not rest in the dormitory, but rested in the warm pavilion of the South Compound, which was also a choice to follow the instructions of the imperial doctor.

The South Compound is not big, but it is very quiet, because the guards here are very strict, if His Majesty needs a quiet environment, dozens of shadow guards in the South Compound can clean up the noise sources within a hundred steps outside the courtyard at any time.

It is also for this reason that even if there are palace people passing by this area, they have to deliberately bypass it. Because the palace people didn't know when His Majesty was inside, when he needed to be quiet, and the tribe sent those bat-like men in black to clean up the four fields. If you don't pay attention, you are like a rabbit and you are picked up by an eagle and thrown far away.

After the news of Wang Chi's return to the palace spread, several people came to visit, but they couldn't cross the outer wall of the South Compound, and they were invited away by several people in black.

More than ten years ago, when Wang Chi was still guarding the border in northern Xinjiang, he had a 'door' wife, married several concubines, and had a total of two 'daughters' and three sons. The eldest son died at an early age, the third son was absent from home all the year round, and the youngest 'daughter' was still sitting outside the big family of the palace, still worrying about how to recruit him. Now in the palace, the closest people to Wang Chi are only the eldest 'daughter' Wang Qing, the second son Wang Hong, and then the favorite concubine Xiao Wanting.

For these three people, of course, the shadow guards of the South Compound can't be stopped.

The second prince, Wang Hong, came back with the emperor. And not long after the emperor rested in the warm pavilion, the princess Wang Qing arrived. But because she saw her father's uncomfortable appearance due to injury, she couldn't stop crying, Wang Hong was worried that she was too sad and seriously injured, so she quickly made the decision and persuaded her to go back to her dormitory with two grandmothers.

As for why Concubine De is late, it can be understood that husband and wife always need to have a solitary environment before they can talk about themselves.

What's more, the second prince didn't stay in the warm pavilion for long, and after careful calculation, Concubine De was only half an hour late.

There are only three palace people who serve in the warm pavilion, but at this time, the emperor Wang Chi, who is sleeping on the imperial couch, does not need to serve any 'service', as long as the environment continues to be quiet.

The three palace people in the warm pavilion saluted Concubine De silently, and after getting up, they were pointed out by her outside the pavilion with a look.

There are only two people in the room, one bedroom and one standing, Concubine Xiao Wanting stood three steps away from the couch, quietly looking at the emperor's husband who was sleeping evenly with a snort, so after a while, she took the three steps closer, squatted down close to the edge of the couch, and gently held the hand that her husband put outside the brocade quilt.

Wang Chi, who still had a dull pain in his chest and abdomen, was actually very shallow in his sleep, and felt his hand being held by something warm and wet—anything that came into contact with him at this time would make him feel a little uncomfortable—so he closed his eyes and struggled with only a subconscious.

His sudden subtle movement really startled Xiao Wanting.

After a while, confirming that her husband's shaking of his hand was just an unconscious move, Xiao Wanting breathed a sigh of relief, but her mood was still a little 'confused'. Putting her husband's hand back into the brocade quilt and tucking the corners of the quilt on both sides of his shoulder, Xiao Wanting stood up from the couch, with a hint of complexity in her eyes.

Did you just dream?

In your dream, who did you think was holding your hand?

Or should I say, when I hold your hand, is it me who you see in your dreams?

Xiao Wanting asked three questions in her heart at one time, and these three questions did not come out of her mouth, some of them seemed to be asking her husband Wang Chi, and some of them seemed to be questioning a certain role she played in the Wang family.

After standing so quietly for a long time, Xiao Wanting made a move, raised her hands hanging by her side and 'kneaded' them.

These hands shook her husband's hand just now, but it didn't seem to bring down the slightest warmth.

I don't know if it's because my husband's always fiery hand has been a little cold since he returned tonight because of his injury; Or is it because when she held his hand just now, he suddenly struggled, and then broke away the softness and warmth in her heart......

Spit out the truth after drinking, and speak more truthfully in dreams.

Although Wang Chi's move just now was very slight and short-lived,

But for Xiao Wanting, it was equivalent to a message from the bottom of his heart...... Refuse.

This is a trace of panic and sorrow that Xiao Wanting has hidden in the deepest part of her heart and is also the most difficult to erase since marrying Wang Chi for 14 years.

Although with the death of the 'woman', she had no need to worry anymore, because the cause of this panic might have put her position in jeopardy. But after the 'woman' disappeared from this world, it didn't take long for her to live happily, and Xiao Wanting became frightened and worried again.

Because she found that the soul of that 'woman' lived in Wang Chi's heart, and she was powerless to do anything or change anything about it.

How to kill that trace of soul that lives in the depths of Wang Chi's heart?

Xiao Wanting lowered her eyes slightly, her eyes fell on her lower abdomen, where a phoenix feather was embroidered on the fabric, layered and colorful. The tip of the feather is also strung with an oval piece of gold leaf, and a pearl is embedded in the middle of the gold leaf. For the comfort of dressing, it should not be too heavy, so the pearl particles on the clothes are not large, but they must have enough years of growth to be shiny and bright.

This set of gorgeous clothes is still a tribute jointly presented by Jiangnan silk merchants and large pearl farmers in Bilian Lake during the Midyear Festival last year.

However, it is said to be a tribute, just looking at the size of this dress, it is obvious that it is a dress tailored for Xiao Wanting.

Regarding the faintly 'exposed' figure of this gorgeous dress, the other noble concubines in the palace can't wear it, but Xiao Wanting, one of the four concubines, put on this gorgeous costume, and she still hasn't been sealed after that.

I don't know if it's because Wang Chi is too busy with state affairs, or because he has a rough attitude towards the affairs of the harem, except for a few mentions by officials of the Ministry of Rites, he added a few noble concubines to the harem in the several drafts held in the early years, and there was no action beyond that. Let those new 'women' who have entered the palace be gentle and elegant, or graceful and graceful, or 'flower' branches...... Wang Chi is still fortunate to be few, and none of those 'women' have been promoted to status.

- Of course, this may have something to do with their stomachs. When it comes to this kind of thing, in fact, Xiao Wanting has some "credit" that cannot be pushed away.

Although Wang Chi's third son often does not return home and does not know where he lives in the world, his second son Wang Hong has always lived in the palace and stayed by the emperor's side. If it weren't for the fact that this Second Highness has been sick and weak, it is obvious that he is very likely to be the prince.

There are also some officials in the DPRK who have another suspicion in their 'private' background, if it weren't for the fact that His Majesty has a third prince, maybe the second prince will be established as a prince early even if he is sick and weak. In any case, none of the two princes has been crowned a king fief, and the possibility of this kind of fiefdom is balanced.

Today, this equilibrium may remain the same, and both princes have reached the age when they really start studying the matter. To His Majesty's relief, His Royal Highness's physical condition gradually improved. The officials of the Ministry of Rites had a headache, and they couldn't 'touch' His Majesty's mind.

As far as the country's plans are concerned, although His Royal Highness's physical condition is much stronger than in the past, there are still hidden worries.

The daily workload of being an emperor is very large, and people often talk about the emperor's brocade clothes and 'jade' food, food to open his mouth, and clothes to stretch his hand, but strictly speaking, this set of regulations for serving 'service' is to let a monarch have a healthier physique and more time to deal with state affairs, not just for enjoyment.
