Chapter 257: Upgrade
Until I got out of the palace, got in the car, and was about to arrive at the door of the house.
Chonghua's head was full of buzzing noises.
Although it has repeatedly refreshed the lower limit of its understanding of antiquity. But today, Chonghua found that his three views had collapsed.
Luo Chen's face was not good when the emperor said that he was dying. All the way home, I didn't stretch my eyebrows.
This Chonghua can understand him. Any child will have this reaction when he hears his father say he is going to die. Chonghua doesn't plan to persuade him anything, and if you don't understand something, don't interject lightly. Silently guarding him is also a kind of care.
The maids guarding the house waited eagerly for the masters to return, but as soon as they entered the door, the maids put away the smiles on their faces.
Although Luo Chen also has a cold face on weekdays, this expression as if the sky has fallen today is definitely the first time. Qing Kite and the others glanced at each other, and silently bowed their heads and went out. Leaving Chonghua and the two of them alone in the warm pavilion.
Chonghua changed his clothes, removed his hair again, and looked at Luo Chen, who had been sitting on the beauty couch, from the mirror. After thinking about it, he sighed and got up, pulled him to his feet, and helped him untie his arrow sleeves.
After changing into a wide-sleeved collared robe, Chonghua pressed him on a stool, removed the gold crown, took a white jade comb, and combed his hair little by little.
Luo Chen was like a soulless puppet and let Chonghua fiddle with it, without saying a word.
This is the first time Chonghua has combed Luo Chen's hair. Usually, when I watch him comb his hair, he always thinks that a big man can comb his hair so beautifully, which is really strange. As soon as I stretched out my hand today, I unexpectedly liked the touch. Luo Chen's hair is indeed very smooth. This kind of hair is rarely found even by girls in modern times. The kind of cool silkiness, as if lubricated silk flowed through the hand.
The two men were silent, and neither of them spoke.
Chonghua thought about it, and still asked someone to prepare dinner, although Luo Chen may not be able to eat it. But there is no respite for the next eight achievements. When you can eat more, you must recharge your energy well.
Kikyo originally prepared a pot of ginseng chicken soup today, but seeing the master's expression, it almost made people serve it. Fortunately, Chonghua stopped her in time. Is there anything more tonic than ginseng chicken soup?
However, at this time, will the chicken soup with ginseng not be easy to digest? Chonghua looked at the oily soup in the pot, paused for two seconds, and still picked up the bowl and served a big bowl to Luo Chen.
Luo Chen took the chopsticks and looked at the small mountain of rice and a table of dishes in front of him in a daze. Chonghua pushed the soup bowl to him, and he lowered his head and ate it violently.
Pinching the chopsticks for a long time, Luo Chen picked up the bowl and ate it violently.
The green kite Zi Mo, who was standing on the side and waiting, was dumbfounded. Usually, Luo Chen's posture of eating alone is very terrifying, but today Chonghua is simply extraordinary, completely throwing off the usual lady image, and eating with oil on his face like a starving ghost reincarnated.
It wasn't until he had eaten that Chonghua put down the dishes and chopsticks. Glancing up at Luo Chen, he was still frowning and eating. It's like fighting something.
That night, Luo Chen turned his back to Chonghua and wrapped the quilt tightly.
Looking at the man who usually can't push it away sleeping alone wrapped in a quilt, Chonghua suddenly had an indescribable anger. She could indeed understand Luo Chen's reaction, but the sky hadn't fallen yet. It's okay to say that she doesn't have a backache when she stands and talks, or to say that she is not close to people. After all, the road has to be walked.
Since the emperor was able to confess to Luo Chen that he would die soon, in Chonghua's view, it was equivalent to entrusting everything to Luo Chen. At this juncture, whoever falls Luo Chen can't fall.
Gritting his teeth, Chonghua stretched out his hand and grabbed Luo Chen's shoulder. There was no trigger for the first time, and Chonghua knew that he hadn't slept. Then he continued to pull hard.
Luo Chen tensed his body and didn't turn around.
Chonghua pouted, and he really didn't know who to follow. He threw away the quilt and stood up, and walked around Luo Chen's feet in front of him. Fortunately, this bed is big enough, and even if Chonghua goes around to sleep outside, it is far away from the bed.
Luo Chen's eyes were really open, and his eyes were full of coldness. Chonghua ignored him, ripped off the quilt wrapped around him and got in. His arm reached under Luo Chen's neck and held him in his arms.
Luo Chen's tense body paused and slowly softened.
Chonghua gently patted Luo Chen's back and dropped a kiss on his forehead.
I remember crying when I had nightmares when I was a child, and my mother would comfort her like this. Hold her and pat her on the back, then kiss her on the forehead. Let her sleep comfortably.
At that time, life was simple and interesting. I just don't know when it started, my parents' work became busier and busier, and there were fewer and fewer times when the family ate together. In the end, it fell apart.
The person in his arms gradually relaxed the tense body, and Chonghua's heart slowly fell back into his stomach. Now is not the time to fall, you have to force yourself to sleep, force yourself to eat, and when you have the strength, you can continue walking.
"No matter what happens, I will be with you. I may not be able to help, but I will be there whenever you need me. Chonghua whispered above Luo Chen's head.
Luo Chen paused, stretched out his hand and wrapped his hand around Chonghua's waist. As if to press her into the blood and bones, he hugged her tightly.
The next day, the emperor's decree came down.
Chonghua's side character was erased, and she became the first princess to be upgraded from a side concubine to a full concubine since the founding of the People's Republic of China.
Before this move was shocked~ Palace, the previous dynasty was once again appointed by the emperor as the crown prince, which caused an uproar.
Chonghua, the second prince and concubine, was promoted to the crown princess after just 20 minutes. Before the palace concubines of the Hou~ Palace could be shocked by the promotion of the side concubine to the main concubine, they were sunk by the news that Luo Chen was named the crown prince.
"The crown princess?" Chonghua knelt in front of the shadow wall to receive the holy decree, and was blindsided when he heard the three words of the crown princess. Didn't you say the concubine? The front is good, why was it directly upgraded to the crown princess in the back?
Could it be that the emperor planned to cut through the mess quickly and threw the bomb out directly. Deep-water fried fish, see how many people show their feet?
However, the words of the crown princess ......
"Crown Princess, take the order." The eunuch who delivered the decree was full of smiles.
The green kite helped Chonghua to stand up and respectfully accepted the holy decree. Zi Mo walked over with the reward purse. Originally, I had prepared a purse for pinching silver wires. But halfway through, I heard that Concubine Zheng was directly promoted to the crown princess. Zimo Bingxue smartly hurriedly went back and changed the purse with the gold wire.
The eunuchs who delivered the decree congratulated Chonghua with a smile and went back satisfied.
"It's too much of a joke." Chonghua wrinkled his eyebrows: "Father, this is planning to kill the two of us." ”
At this time, the appointment of Luo Chen as the crown prince would have caused many people's spearheads, and those who were waiting to stand in line were all gearing up.
At this time, she was canonized as the crown princess. Didn't you say that all the demons and monsters in the backyard had to be dealt with by her?
The most annoying thing about social gods...... One by one, they wore human skin masks, and their hearts were as black as wormholes. It's really not pleasant. And now she can no longer act rashly, every move is implicated in Luo Chen.
Luo Chen accepted the title of prince very calmly. As if he had never been belittled, he stood straight at the knife-like sight of the courtiers below. A row of calm.
For him, there was nothing more exciting for him than the imminent death of his father. Since it was his turn to take this responsibility, he held it up. After all, that's what the father expected. He, as a son, has always been willful, and he always has to give something back to his father.
The princess-level costumes have long been prepared, and there are other gifts from various palaces. Chonghua should have entered the palace to salute the queen. But the queen was still confused about how the emperor could suddenly crown the crown prince, and completely forgot about the previous shock Chonghua's upgrade.
The part of entering the palace to salute was postponed.
In the big flower hall of the Tongjiang Palace, Zhou Jin, the king of Tongjiang, sat on the Taishi chair with a solemn face.
The emperor's sudden canonization of the crown prince caught them off guard.
Originally, I wanted to choose an obedient and sensible one among the remaining princes to support him. Who knew that there was a problem with the four princes who were originally optimistic, not to mention that they also got in a fifth prince who was second only to the four princes. It was not the timing of the rebellion of the six princes, and besides, the six princes did not have that brain.
The old seven and eight are not in the climate, and even if they are supported, they may not be able to help them.
The Nine Emperors are a good one, but that temperament and character can't be held in his hands at all. What's more, he still has a mother like that.
King Tongjiang twisted his eyebrows slightly, which tendon did the emperor not match correctly, and he was obviously stuck in the position of the prince before and was not canonized. How could you suddenly change your mind.
Looking up at his breezy son, King Tongjiang took a sip of tea.
"Wen'er, say whatever you want."
Zhou Wenyuan raised his eyelashes slightly: "Son...... Didn't think about anything. ”
King Tongjiang glanced at his son deeply and put down the teacup: "You have also seen the current situation." What are the insights? ”
Zhou Wenyuan pinched the white jade wrench in his hand: "My son doesn't have any ideas, but he is very curious about why the emperor suddenly wants to be crowned prince." ”
King Tongjiang raised his eyebrows, worthy of being his son, and the details he paid attention to were different from others. Those aides were trying to figure out how to deal with the prince's problem. But Zhou Wenyuan valued the unusualness of the emperor's move.
"It's better to ask the Imperial Doctor." Zhou Wenyuan lowered his head and looked at the wrench in his hand.
King Tongjiang nodded slightly. Comparing hearts to hearts, an emperor, when he starts to think about the next generation, most of the time is when his life is short. Although it seems that the emperor is still very healthy, such a thing as being sick is not something that can be said to be healthy on the face.
You should really go to the hospital and ask in detail. If the emperor really didn't live long, they should have made other plans.
"Father, there is a sentence that my son doesn't know whether to say or not." Zhou Wenyuan suddenly spoke.
King Tongjiang looked at him: "We are father and son, what can't be said." ”
Zhou Wenyuan raised his head and looked at his father with a faint look in his eyes: "Why does my father always consider supporting the prince to ascend to the throne?" ”R1152
