Chapter 66: Wanting to Talk

?

I didn't have time to make a 'handover' for the matter of the love of my sons and daughters, but there was panicked news in the court: The rebellion in the five states of Jiannan Province was 'chaotic', and the rebel was a distant relative of Concubine Shu in the past, and Li Yuan rebelled in the name of "Qing Jun's side"! In that year, Concubine Heshu's mother's family, the Liu family, was defeated, and her son was killed by me, and she was later given death for assassinating the emperor, the Liu family was exterminated, and her grandson Yuan was demoted to a concubine, and now she is being used as a cover for rebellion.

In just a few days, the rebels have captured Tuozhou, Bazhou, Gongzhou and other places, all the way like a bamboo, directly 'pressing' Chengdu Mansion. The imperial court was discussing who to send to suppress it, but Gangneung Mansion began to act in a hurry, with the intention of fighting each other with the rebels. After Qi Huai and Qi Min agreed, they sent Ziling to lead the army, which was bound to suppress the rebels! However, the rear had not yet settled down, and it was rumored that the new Khan of the Western Turks, He Luqin, led an army of 300,000 troops to enter the Yan 'Gate' Pass, and 'wanted' to break through the pass and enter Beijing!

As soon as the Yan 'Gate' was broken, the capital was in danger, and Huo Qing was immediately appointed as the generalissimo of soldiers and horses to lead the army to resist the enemy.

I was in the back of the enemy, and I seemed to be in danger like I had never been in before. It's been a few years since I've had a birthday, and this year it's even more panicked, and everyone in the palace has a worried face, and they are in a hurry.

Who knew that at this time, Qi Min suddenly fell ill, and the high fever did not go away for several days, and the doctors of the Tai Yi Department were all serving in the golden 'flowers' and 'serving', but they did not get better.

I was so anxious that I called the doctor every day to inquire about my legs, but I couldn't ask anything. In desperation, I had people carry me to visit me with a chariot.

When I arrived at the entrance of the golden 'flower' falling 'gate', the palace people knelt down to greet me, and the 'spring' equinox and the white 'dew' helped me to get down and enter the main hall, but I was stopped by Liang Jiushan beside Qi Min, and said: "The queen mother, please wait for a while, and let the slaves go in and say goodbye." ”

I had to wait in front of the 'door' of the warm pavilion, and not long after Liang Jiushan entered, I heard a "bang", which seemed to be the sound of breaking. Immediately, Liang Jiushan came out and said with a face full of embarrassment: "The Queen Mother, the prince said...... There is a difference between inside and outside, the prince is sick at this time, I'm afraid it is inconvenient to see you. ”

My heart was empty, and he would not see me again since that day...... I came today just to see if he was okay, but it made him angry.

Reluctantly squeezed out a hint of laughter, and said: "Since this is the case, then the mourning family will not bother, let your prince take care of it, and the mourning family will leave first." ”

Sitting on the chariot, the cold wind blew from all sides, and it hurt like a knife on my face. My hands were couched in my sleeves, and I held the hand warmer in my hands, but I didn't feel a trace of heat. The chill in all directions invaded the 'hairy' pores around my body, and the depths of my bones were cold and cold, my heart was frozen into ice, and my blood was also coagulated into icicles, piercing into my bones and 'flesh' one by one, painful, but unable to shout.

"Stop!" I suddenly shouted, and then looked at the Agarwood Pavilion.

'Spring' was clear, and said: "The Empress Dowager will go to the Agarwood Pavilion to sit down first! This step is really cold, and the slave maid asks people to carry the warm sedan chair." ”

She helped me into the Agarwood Pavilion, and ordered Bai 'Lu' to wait at the 'door', without instructing outsiders to come in. Then she and I walked through the secret passage until we reached the dormitory where the golden flowers fell and the mercy was revealed.

The exit of the secret passage is behind the row of bookshelves, and you can just see Qi Min resting in the 'bed', but at this time, there are several adults in front of his 'bed', sitting on stools to discuss with him the war in the past few days.

"General Gao went all the way south, and the wind and snow gradually stopped, and he must be able to 'confront' the rebels in a few days. General Huo has also arrived at the Yan 'Gate' Pass, but the army has not moved, probably because he is afraid of General Huo's prestige!"

Another adult immediately said: "That's right, I think General Huo destroyed East Turkistan back then, this He Lu is young and vigorous, and he doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, but as soon as he encounters our army, he will be cowardly!"

Qi Min said: "Don't underestimate this He Lu, he is a ruthless person who does not recognize his six relatives, kills his father and brother, and even refuses to let go of his uncles, sisters and cousins...... Let Huo Qing not take it lightly. ”

"Yes, Lord Wang, please rest assured, General Huo is a measured person. ”

Qi Min was about to say something, but suddenly coughed, and the palace people hurriedly came forward to 'serve', but Qi Min coughed very badly, and the palace people on both sides were busy serving hot tea. Qi Min waved his hand to make them retreat, and coughed for a few more times before stopping.

Several ministers knelt down and kowtowed, "Please take care of your body." ”

Qi Min raised his hand to signal to get up, and said, "You all go down!"

The ministers saluted again, and then retreated in turn. Qi Min only 'wanted' to lie down, and Liang Jiushan came in again and said, "Lord Qi, the prince came in to say hello." ”

Qi Min did not speak for a long time, and the hall was silent, except for the low cough that he tried to suppress. After a while, he said, "Let him come in." ”

Yuan Xi came in to say goodbye, with a worried look on his face, he looked at him with compassion, and he didn't speak for a long time. I looked anxious, for fear that he would take Yuan Xi to attack, waited for a while, Qi Min asked him to get up, beckoned him to sit next to him, asked him about his homework recently, was it good to eat and wear, and then asked him to pay attention to his body. At the end, he asked, "Can you go and say hello to the Empress Dowager?"

Yuan Xi said: "My son asks the Empress Dowager every day, and the Empress Dowager is very worried about her father's illness. ”

Qi Min was silent for a long time and asked, "What happened to the Empress Dowager's 'leg' disease?"

Yuan Xi replied: "It's still the same as before, it's just that the Queen Mother has been worried about the court and her father these days, and she always can't eat and sleep well. ”

Qi Min crouched beside the 'bed', and there was another big cough. I listened to the coughing sound and clenched my palms tightly, afraid that I would cry out loud.

Yuan Xi sensibly helped him stroke his back, and endured crying: "Father...... You...... Are you alright?"

Qi Min held back and said, "You go back first, I'm fine." ”

Yuan Xi was brought down by Ru Mu with tears in his eyes, and Liang Jiushan brought a bowl of 'medicine' again, and said: "The prince just dropped the 'medicine' bowl, this is a heavy boil, you can drink it." ”

Qi Min took the bowl of 'medicine' and drank it all, the 'medicine' seemed to be extremely bitter, I only smelled the bitter fragrance, and saw him frowning and cold. Liang Jiushan hurriedly 'touched' his wrist, and said hurriedly: "Why did the prince start the fever again, and the slave will pass on the imperial doctor." ”

Qi Min stopped him: "Wait, if you meet Shen Yiling, let him take good care of the Empress Dowager and stew more nourishing soup, she ...... She is weak and sick a while ago, so don't let her fall ill. ”

When he said a word, Liang Jiushan said "yes", and at the end, when he finished speaking, Liang Jiushan asked again: "If the Empress Dowager comes again, will the prince still see you?"

Qi Min turned around and said, "No." ”

Liang Jiushan put down the curtain and retreated, and in the heavy curtain, he could not see his figure, and could only hear coughing one after another, as if he was out of breath.

With tears in my eyes, I made a "go back" gesture to the 'vernal equinox'. Out of the secret road, 'Chun' sighed: "The prince is still thinking about you in his heart." I sat and rested for a while, wiped the tears from the corners of my eyes, looked up and smiled at her, and said, "I understand everything......" Before I finished speaking, I felt cold all over my body.
