170. Chapter 53 The Truth of the Year (2)
"Tell her, this hall has a lot of official duties today, and when I have some leisure, I will send someone to pick her up."
"Yes." Guo Housheng got the word and slowly withdrew from the door.
Sure enough, when Liang Naixin heard Xiao Yu's words, he was a little dissatisfied at first, but then changed to a bright smile. When she was free, she sent someone to pick her up, and she didn't mention her trespass today, which is not a clear indication of what else she wants to do! With Xiao Yu's statement, she didn't have to toss herself anymore and waited quietly in the East Palace.
After Liang Naixin left with a smile on his face, Guo Housheng turned around and asked the little chamberlain to select a plate of fine green fruits and send them to the east wing. He doesn't have Liang Naixin's optimism, he is the most clear bystander, Liang Naixin abandoned Xiao Yu first, Xiao Yu didn't say that there was a gap in his heart, and now treating Liang Naixin well is just with the help of Liang Xiang's prestige. And what really entered Xiao Yu's heart was probably only the one who chanted the scriptures day and night in the east wing, although he also had the intention of using it, but Xiao Yu treated her very differently. Even when he had the closest relationship with Liang Naixin, he had never spoiled a woman like this.
Guo Housheng looked at the clear sky and let out a long sigh.
"Are all the medicines for my father ready?" Xiao Yu looked at the daylight outside the window and put down the music in his hand. This hour is the time when Xiao Feng takes medicine, and Xiao Yu is waiting by his side these days.
Xiao Feng's condition was getting worse day by day, and he had fallen into a coma since the day of King Qing's rebellion, and he had never been awake once. The imperial hospital was stationed in turn, waiting day and night in the side hall of the Longqian Palace, and under Xiao Yu's strict orders, no one dared to leak the slightest bit about Xiao Feng's illness. Therefore, the outside world did not know that Xiao Feng was in a coma, but thought that Xiao Feng was still sick and could not take charge of things. This is also the most convincing reason why Bailiguang instigated King Qing's rebellion at the beginning. Once Xiao Feng dies of illness, Xiao Yu's position as the crown prince will be confirmed, and Xiao Yuli can only bear the notoriety of killing his father and brother when he ascends to the throne.
"It's all ready." Guo Housheng followed behind Xiao Yu step by step, and the two walked towards the dormitory of the Long Qian Palace.
There are two pear trees planted in the courtyard of the Longqian Palace, which are said to have been planted by the second emperor himself, and they are always white when they bloom in spring, like someone's bleak white plain clothes. At this time, it is past spring, and the pear trees are growing well, and the dense branches and foliage block out the sunlight a lot, bringing a rare coolness.
Xiao Feng was still asleep on the bed, without any sense of the outside world, if it weren't for the faint heaving chest that showed that his life was still going on, I was afraid that it was really like a dead corpse.
Xiao Yu took the medicinal juice from Wei Zhongchen, who was on duty today, carefully scooped up the potion and tested the temperature on his lips before feeding it to Xiao Feng's mouth. He was put on a few pillows behind him by the palace maid, and barely sat on the bed with his words closed. His face was dark, and he looked terminally ill.
"I'm afraid I don't have many days left." Wei Zhongchen whispered behind Xiao Yu, this sentence was clear to the imperial doctors, but no one dared to give it to Xiao Yu.
"The main hall knows." Xiao Yu was not as angry as Wei Zhongchen expected, he wiped the medicinal juice flowing from the corner of his mouth for Xiao Feng, and said calmly: "These days, my father can't even drink the medicinal juice. Most of the medicinal juice he fed flowed out of the corners of Xiao Feng's mouth, and he was not swallowed at all. has reached this point, even if Xiao Yu no longer understands medical skills, he can more or less guess.
Wei Zhongchen saw that Xiao Yu already knew that his task was completed, so he took a few steps back. "The minister went down first."
"Go ahead." Xiao Yu turned his head sideways and nodded to Guo Housheng who was waiting on the side, and asked the palace people who were waiting in the hall to go out. He actually has some things to say, and he wants to talk to his father and emperor, those words that were originally kept for Xiao Feng to say when he wakes up, but now he is afraid that he will not have a chance if he doesn't say it.
"Father, have you been struggling all the time?" Xiao Yu looked at Xiao Feng in a coma, his handsome face had become sallow and withered due to illness, like a piece of air-dried bark, old and cracked. "If you think I'm just the seed of the queen mother, why don't you abandon me? Let me stay in the position of prince all the time. You don't abandon me, is it because you still have a trace of faith in your heart about the words of the queen mother, who said that mine is indeed your own son. ”
In those difficult days, Xiao Yu was not without resentment, not without assumptions, if Xiao Feng really abolished his position and expelled him from the palace, maybe he would live a comfortable life somewhere. But why? Why did Xiao Feng let him, the evil seed, occupy the position of the prince? He really couldn't understand why he was hostile to him everywhere if he recognized him as his son.
These mysteries may never be solved with Xiao Feng's sleepiness. But these are not important, the most important position of power has now been grasped by Xiao Yu, no matter what Xiao Feng thought at the beginning, it can't change this fact.
"Father, probably you don't know that your favorite seventh brother has been killed by me, just outside the Xuanyuan Gate. Qingwang's Mansion, the Princess's Mansion, and even the father of the horse, nearly a thousand people were killed by me. You didn't see with your own eyes how wolf your favorite Concubine Qing was when she dropped her head, and you didn't see that your favorite King Qing was uprooted by me like a weed and discard......ed at will" Xiao Yu saw that Xiao Feng didn't drink a drop of medicinal juice at all, so she simply put the medicine bowl aside and continued to say slowly: "No matter what you planned in your heart, it is now under my control. I can do what I want, no one dares to accuse me anymore, no one has the ability to shake my position anymore. Now, do you regret it in your heart, father? Regret not abolishing me as a prince earlier? ”
"No...... Don't ......" A muddy and faint voice came from in front of Xiao Yu, and the sleeping emperor finally opened his eyes with great difficulty.
"No? Ha ha...... What's the use of 'no' again! I sue you, Xiao Yuli is dead! He's dead! Xiao Yu finally threw away the warm mask he had been wearing, and glared at Xiao Feng viciously.
"No...... No...... Such. Xiao Feng laboriously stretched out his hand under the futon and held Xiao Yu: "Yu'er, I ...... I've never had ...... I never doubted that you were not my son. ”
"You, what did you say?" Xiao Yu turned his head sideways and looked at Xiao Feng suspiciously, trying to see clearly the truth of what he said.
"Yu'er, you are my son, and I have never doubted this." As if sobering up a lot, Xiao Feng gradually made his words clear: "Similarly, I have never doubted your queen mother. I know that she is innocent too. ”
