Chapter 0043: The Dark Tide is Turbulent and Dangerous
Shang Yuchen was actually not completely unconscious, and in a vague way, he heard the queen's call and slowly opened his eyes. Seeing her crying pear blossoms with rain, the corners of her lips barely pulled out a light smile, and she raised her hand to hold the queen's hand.
"Queen Mother's ......"
"Chen'er! Imperial Physician Pei, come over and take a look, the prince is awake! β
When Imperial Physician Pei heard this, he immediately approached Shang Yuchen's bed, "Niangniang, you get out of the way and let the ministers treat His Highness." β
"Good, good."
The queen wrung her handkerchief in both hands and bit her lower lip lightly, looking nervous.
Shang Yuchen smiled with relief, "Queen Mother, you don't have to worry, your sons are fine." β
After careful pulse diagnosis, Imperial Physician Pei walked to the front of the bookcase, dipped the pen in ink and wrote out the prescription for the little eunuch to decoct the medicine immediately.
Then he turned around and saluted the queen, "Niangniang, the minister has prescribed a few more pairs of medicines, and after a month of rest, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will definitely recover." β
"That's good, there's Dr. Lao Pei."
Shang Yuchen bowed slightly, "Thank you." β
"Niangniang and His Royal Highness are polite, and the minister will retire first."
"Well, you all go down first."
The queen waved her hand, and the imperial doctor and the palace people saluted and retreated.
There were only the two of them left in the inner hall, and the queen patted her chest with palpitations, and held Shang Yuchen's hand, "Chen'er, fortunately you're fine, why did you leave the palace when you were so good?" β
"It's just playfulness, I never thought I'd run into an assassin."
After Shang Yuchen finished speaking, he raised his eyes to look out of the door, and the queen understood, picked up a pen and paper from the table and handed it to him.
It is true that the retainers were kidnapped by thieves, and did not leave the palace without permission. β
When the queen saw what Shang Yuchen wrote on the paper, her face changed dramatically, and she barely maintained her previous tone, "Because you left the palace without permission, your father was angry, and ordered the palace people in the East Palace to be punished, don't mess around again in the future." As the eldest prince, you should set an example, how can you live up to your father's teachings to you. β
Shang Yuchen's eyes did not make the slightest wave, obviously he had long been used to it.
Since he was a child, his father and emperor have been to blame him at every turn, and the slightest mistake is harsh accusations and merciless. Every time at this moment, he would tell himself that it was because he had high expectations for him and hoped that his son would become a dragon......
"The son knows his mistakes, and remembers the teachings of the queen mother."
The queen lowered her voice and asked, "Chen'er, have you found a clue?" β
"No, I didn't."
"Then do you know who saved you?"
"After Erchen escaped from the palace on Luming Mountain at that time, he fled to the vicinity of Fanghua Water Pavilion, and happened to be rescued by a passing knight."
The queen vaguely guessed that Shang Yuchen was hiding a lot of things, but he didn't want to say it, and she couldn't force it, not to mention that maybe the wall had ears, and if she said too much, she would lose it.
"Queen Mother, I heard that the border war is coming to an end, will Marshal Xiao return to Kyoto soon?"
"yes."
Although the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, the queen is in charge of the six palaces and has many eyes and ears in the harem. His father is a master, and he is full of protΓ©gΓ©s in the court.
"Then Xiao Chuhong will come back with him?"
"This is natural, Marshal Xiao and the emperor made an agreement in front of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military affairs, returned from a great victory, handed over the military power and went into hiding, why are you so concerned about this matter?"
Shang Yuchen recalled Su Hao's serious expression, and always felt that the kid seemed to know something.
"Chu Hong and Erchen were childhood playmates, and they haven't seen each other for seven years, so just ask casually."
"Chen'er, you can recuperate with peace of mind, put aside the affairs of the court for the time being, and don't ask more. It's an eventful time, or it's better to have fewer troubles. The queen's tone was vague.
"Queen Mother, does my father have any other meaning to convey to his sons?"
