The sound of the detonation of the fire gun one after another was mixed with the thunder, and even Gu Chen, the person who put it, couldn't tell whether it was thunder or the sound of the fire gun detonating in his ears.

After finishing his work and going down the mountain, Gu Chen took advantage of the fact that the sky was still bright and went straight to the East Palace to find Qing Yu, instead of going to Liu Yiyi's residence.

Inside the walls of the East Palace.

"My lord, it's almost dawn, are we going to continue the night patrol?" Qing Yu walked in front of him, followed by a small pair of patrolling guards, if it was in the past, when Qing Yu was not there, they would have been lazy to rest, but now that Qing Yu is here, they are not good to blatantly slip away.

"Oh, it's almost dawn, could it be that things haven't been done?" Qing Yu subconsciously muttered.

"What hasn't been done? Lord Qingyu just opened his mouth, and the little ones did it. Qing Yu turned around, and the guards behind him clenched their fists at him.

"Ah...... It's okay, it's nothing, it's almost dawn, you go to rest and rest and change shifts, it's hard to be on duty today. Qing Yu clenched his fists, and then walked forward by himself.

"Let's go, let's go......"

The guards behind him glanced at each other, mostly for fear that Qing Yu would turn around and ask them to do something, so they quickly dispersed and disappeared.

"Strange, why is there no one at this time?" Qing Yu put his hands behind his back, and he had already walked behind the Donghua Gate that he had agreed with Gu Chen, but he didn't see Gu Chen's figure.

At this time, the sky was already dark, and he had to worry that if it was dark, it would not be good for some sharp-eyed or patrolling guards to see it.

"Who, who dares to plot against me?"

Qing Yu was thinking about it, and a small pebble hit his calf, and he immediately squatted down in pain to cover his calf, but when he looked up, he saw a man in black hanging on the camphor tree outside the Donghua Gate, hiding among the branches and leaves, waving to him.

"It's you, why are you here now? Is everything done? Qing Yu noticed that there was no one around before he lowered his voice and asked.

"It's all done, because I had a little accident, so I'm here now," Gu Chen said, tearing the veil halfway.

"Okay, I'll go and tell Your Highness that you've worked hard."

"It's not hard, it's just that my foreman should be on duty in the palace today, I have to go back, if there is any follow-up news, you can pass it on." Gu Chenqiang cheered up, he didn't sleep all night, his eyes were blue.

"Okay, you remember to go back and wash your face, spirits." Qing Yu's sharp eyes saw that the person on duty who was on duty not far away came, and hurriedly waved at Gu Chen to signal him to leave quickly.

It wasn't until Gu Chen jumped off the tree and the leaves he was carrying stopped shaking that Qing Yu stretched his waist, yawned, and walked unhurriedly towards the main hall of the East Palace.

"Slave and maid greetings Lord Qingyu!"

As soon as Qing Yu walked into the palace of His Royal Highness the Prince, the grandmother who served and fed the medicine greeted him, since the queen didn't like the servant girl who served His Royal Highness the Crown Prince last time, the maid who served before His Royal Highness the Prince's bed was replaced by an old and experienced grandmother.

"Well, has Your Highness taken the medicine?" Qing Yu lifted the curtain and walked to the prince's bed.

"I'm served." Mama replied respectfully.

"Now that I have taken it, there is no need for you to serve here, I will just guard it, if there is anything unusual about Your Highness, I will pass it on to the imperial doctor." Qing Yu looked at Mama Shang hesitantly, and stood in front of her, blocking her view of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince on the bed.

"The slave obeys." Although Mama was a little uneasy, she still obeyed the order and retreated.

Qing Yu is a cautious master, he is still not at ease when Mama withdraws, he stands on the window edge and watches, until he sees Mama carrying a food box into the small kitchen, he is relieved to exit in front of the prince's couch.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, it's done!" Even if he lowered his voice, there was joy in his tone that was difficult to hide.

"Really?" The prince opened a slit slightly, the grandmother was a man of few words, he almost thought that there was no one in front of the bed, and almost fell asleep.

"Seriously, Gu Chen came to tell me in person!" Qing Yu knelt in front of the bed, waiting for His Royal Highness the Prince's next command.

"Okay, I see, it seems that it's time for me to wake up, Qingyu, you go out and say I'm awake." The prince opened his eyes completely, and his inky pupils were bottomless, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"This ...... Have you thought about the road behind you, Your Highness? Qing Yu was a little hesitant, although he knew the ingenuity of his master, but they were now driving dangerously, and every step they took had to be optimistic about how to take the next few moves.

"Naturally, I thought about it, and I didn't lie too much, so I didn't care." Compared with Qing Yu's urgency, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's face was light and light, and Qing Yu seemed to have some meaning that the emperor was not in a hurry and the eunuch was in a hurry.

"Okay, my subordinates will go and spread the word." Qing Yu bowed, then got up and went out.

"Someone! Come on! Your Highness is awake, Your Highness is awake! ”

……

"Son...... The son gave the emperor to his father...... Mother...... Greetings to the Queen Mother. ”

When the emperor and queen arrived at the East Palace, the prince was staggering up with the support of his personal guard Qing Yu, but before he could stand firmly, he knelt on the ground with weak legs.

"Starling, my starling, you finally woke up, in the days when you were in a coma, the queen mother was simply living like a year!" Seeing His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looking so weak, the queen was afraid that the emperor would be disappointed in the prince, and second, she was afraid that the prince felt that she was not close enough, and she didn't care about the etiquette system, so she stepped forward to help the prince.

"Prince, you just woke up, so please be exempt from saluting like this." The crown prince was stunned until the emperor spoke clearly, and he reluctantly got up under the pretense of following the support of Queen Qingyu and several maidservants.

"Starling, why is your body so weak, ...... fast? Lie back on the couch and rest. The queen has been supporting His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to lie back on the bed, and then she and the emperor are relieved to retreat outside the screen.

"When did Your Highness wake up?" The emperor raised his forehead and asked Qingyu with squinted eyes.

"If you go back to the emperor, Your Highness woke up after taking the medicine early this morning." Qing Yu hurriedly stepped forward with small steps, knelt down and bowed his head respectfully in reply.

"Okay, the prince must have something to deal with when he wakes up!" The emperor glanced at the queen lazily, and the queen suddenly felt frightened.

"Your Majesty, according to what the concubines have seen, His Royal Highness has just woken up, his body is not yet well, and his spirit is not good, if you don't wait for Your Highness to recover, it will not be too late for Your Highness to ask again?" The queen lowered her eyebrows, and made her own calculations in her heart.

If the emperor listened to her persuasion, then she would have time to ventilate with the prince, if the emperor did not listen, then she had already said that the prince's physical condition was not good, and if the prince poked any holes, she would have an excuse to clean up.

"It's rare for the queen to think so thoroughly, but some things are just afraid that it won't be good if they drag on for a long time, so it's good to ask clearly at the moment, and it's good to be at ease, queen, do you say yes?"

After the emperor finished speaking, he glanced at the queen meaningfully, and then walked inside, and the palace people hurriedly carried the chair to the prince's bed and placed it.
