Chapter 239: The Emperor Summons

Concubine Cheng thought about things thoroughly, and would never do such a thing as poisoning, and now it seems that this matter is very likely to be done by Concubine Lin.

I thought that everyone was standing still, but I didn't expect that Concubine Lin had already secretly poisoned her, and it could be regarded as unscrupulous in order for her son to become the emperor.

Presumably, the emperor already knew that he didn't have much time, so he asked Imperial Physician Wang to spread the news that he was seriously ill, in order to test the current situation and find a better prince for Jiang Guo.

"Princess, the prince has specially explained, let the slave take good care of you, you can't go without eating or drinking for a day. ”

"I don't have an appetite. Xie Fu lowered his eyes and said in a flat tone, "Ziyun, these few days may be the most critical moment in my life." ”

Becoming a king or defeating a king is just a thought of the emperor, if he establishes Jingyao as the prince, it is fine, otherwise, the capital will inevitably have to kill.

"Then are we going to tell the news to Concubine Cheng? ”

"Don't do it yet, I'll find out the situation in Yong'an Palace. ”

The dark clouds slowly dispersed, and the light of the bright moon cast shadows among the trees.

Hidden in the shadows, the ghosts and spirits danced wildly in the darkness until the sun rose and everything returned to its former peace and tranquility.

Xie Fuyao didn't sleep all night, and just closed his eyes when he heard the sound of the little eunuch knocking on the door outside, "Wake up, Princess, Your Majesty has summoned." ”

Xie Fuyao trembled, suddenly woke up from her sleep, and looked at Ziyun's equally panicked eyes, she knew that she was not dreaming.

"Princess, after the emperor woke up, he said that he wanted to see you, you should quickly pack up and leave with the minions. ”

Faced with the sudden incident, Xie Fuyao was a little flustered, and she forced herself to calm down.

Seeing that there was nothing wrong with his dress, he got up and followed the eunuch to the main hall where the emperor lived.

"See Father. Outside the tent, Xie Fuyao knelt down.

After entering the door just now, Xie Fuyao secretly observed the surrounding situation, the queen was not in the palace today, except for the palace maids and eunuchs in the entire palace, there were only himself and the emperor.

"It's coming. The emperor's voice was a little hoarse, as if his throat was blocked by a blood clot, and he was weak when he spoke, "Get up." ”

"Father Xie. Xie Fuyao stood up and looked at the emaciated figure on the bed through the layers, with a trace of emotion in his heart.

Even the emperor, who controls the life and death of the world, has no way to control his own destiny at this moment.

Xie Fuyao took the celadon medicine bowl from the hand of the palace maid next to him, and walked to the side of the bed step by step, "Father, it's time to drink the medicine." ”

"You're not afraid of me. The emperor was in good spirits, and a smile appeared on his vicissitudes of life.

I'm still afraid, but after I really came here, the fear in Xie Fuyao's heart has decreased a lot.

In her eyes, the emperor in front of her was just an ordinary old man.

Although the emperor has been accumulating power for a long time, when he saw the wrinkles on his face, Xie Fuyao still felt a little more compassion in his heart.

"The emperor is generous and loving, and it's too late for your daughter-in-law to respect you, how can you be afraid. ”

Xie Fuyao's smile was as warm as the wind, and she carefully blew the decoction in the spoon and fed it to the emperor's mouth.

"General Xie is blessed, to have such a well-behaved and sensible daughter as you. The emperor smiled lowly.

"It's a pity that I've never served my father like this. Hearing this, Xie Fuyao's movements on his hand suddenly paused.

Thinking that this time he might die forever in the palace and never see his father again, Xie Fuyao felt bitter in his heart.

"Oh, why is that?" the emperor chatted with Xie Fuyao about family life.

"My father was away from home all year round, and he was able to come home very rarely, and every time I saw him when I was young, I was in a hurry. Xie Fuyao relaxed a lot and spoke eloquently.

"I used to think that my father was not good and didn't accompany me, but now that I have grown up, I understand my father's difficulty. ”

"If I hadn't sent General Xie out to fight, I wouldn't have separated your father and daughter. The emperor quipped.

"How can I blame my father, my father went out to fight to make meritorious contributions, for the people of the world, and so did my father's conscientious work. Xie Fuyao hurriedly said.

"How can Fuyao disregard the people of the world for his own selfish desires, so he will be his father's daughter and his father's daughter-in-law. ”

"You're a good boy who is sensible......" The emperor only felt a tightness in his chest, and a mouthful of blood seemed to be uncontrollable, and he trembled and coughed violently twice.

"Father!" Xie Fuyao hurriedly put down the medicine bowl in his hand, supported this thin figure, and slowly helped him to calm down.

The emperor's whole face was gathered together because of the pain, and at this moment he was no longer a high-ranking emperor, but an ordinary old man.

He waved his hand to signal that he was fine, and with Xie Fuyao's support, he leaned back against the cushion behind him.

"I'm scared of you......" The emperor was relieved, and his whole face turned pale because of poor breathing, "People are old and useless." ”

"My father is just sick, and when he is cured, everything will be fine. Xie Fuyao said softly, turned his head and instructed the little palace maid behind him, "Bring a glass of water." ”

"I'm afraid, this disease will not be cured. The emperor said expressionlessly, and there was no joy or anger on his majestic face.

Xie Fuyao's heart sank, she hesitated, took the teacup, and said calmly.

"How can my father give up on himself so much, how can people eat grains and grains without getting sick, as long as you take medicine on time and rest well, you will be fine soon. ”

"Are you okay?" the emperor took a sip of tea and snorted coldly, "Hmph, they all hope that I will die soon, and when I die, this position will be theirs." ”

"Father, don't be angry. Xie Fuyao fell to his knees.

"Could it be that the king of Chu doesn't have this mind. The emperor's eyes narrowed deeply, and in his bottomless eyes were the doubts of the superior for many years.

These words were like a poisonous snake stinging in Xie Fuyao's heart, Xie Fuyao fixed his expression, raised his head, and his eyes were clear.

"Father Emperor Mingjian, the King of Chu has no such rebellious thoughts. ”

"You're used to speaking for him. The emperor's voice was loud, like a thunderclap in the flat ground, which hit Xie Fuyao's chest.

Xie Fuyao's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and a dark shadow sank under her eyes, it was obvious that the emperor was not satisfied with the answer he had just given.

Was he testing himself, or did he think that the person who poisoned him was the king of Chu?

"Father, even if the King of Chu has the heart to take the throne, he will sit in that position honestly, and his most beloved father will pass the throne to him personally, instead of doing some shady deeds. ”

"You mean he wants to be the emperor and wants to get my position. The emperor's voice was low, with bursts of coercion.
