The emperor's eyes were filled with tears, and he kept patting her hand and nodded: "Good boy, it is difficult for people who are alive, I heard a few days ago that your grandmother was seriously ill and bedridden, and you can go back to see her when you are free, after all, you are old, and you have lost your beloved son, and your body must have collapsed all of a sudden." "He's also busy these days, and he hasn't found time to go over to have a look, but he has sent a doctor to see a doctor, but the old lady has a heart disease, and no matter how much the doctor goes to see it, it will be difficult to cure it!

Xie Chuyao didn't want to cry, but when she talked about her grandmother, her tears couldn't stop falling, and Shang Jingcheng was distressed, so he took her into his arms and patted her back gently, wanting to comfort her.

The emperor saw that the two of them looked so affectionate, and he didn't know what he thought, his face suddenly became ugly, he clenched his hands, and he could only turn his face away and stop looking at the two of them.

Qingying glanced at the emperor for a moment, then hugged his fist at him and asked, "May I ask the emperor, how is the queen mother lately?" The folk girl wanted to go over and see her. Staying in this hall any longer was only afraid that she would suffocate, and feeling the sadness flowing throughout the hall made her almost unable to breathe.

The emperor nodded and said, "The queen is very good, some things have been remembered recently, and the grandmother in the palace takes care of her very well, if you want to go to see her, go now." ”

The light shadow smiled slightly, hugged his fist again, and said, "The folk girl is retiring." ”

Ah Yimeng looked at Shang Jingcheng and Xie Chuyao, and then looked at the emperor, and finally kept up with the footsteps of the light shadow very quickly, she didn't want to stay here, she always felt that the emperor was not in a good mood, she didn't want to be injured by mistake.

Xie Chuyao cleaned up his mood, and then slowly pushed Shang Jingcheng away, looked at the emperor and said with a guilty face: "Father, my daughter-in-law is rude, I thought I was happy, but when I think of my father and grandmother, I can't stop feeling uncomfortable. ”

The emperor nodded in understanding and said, "I understand, Yao'er, if you are really worried, go over and see the old lady now, maybe seeing you come back, her illness will be cured!" ”

is the so-called heart disease, because there is concern, pain, sorrow, long-term depression in the heart, can not be explained, and after a long time, there is a disease.

Xie Chuyao burst into tears and smiled, respectfully bowed to the emperor, and then said: "Thank you, father, daughter-in-law will go back when she goes." After speaking, he glanced at Shang Jingcheng and left slowly.

She knew that the emperor didn't open his mouth to let Shang Jingcheng go with her, but she was afraid that there was something she wanted to say to him alone, and she couldn't interfere in the affairs of the court and politics, but she was always apprehensive in her heart, and she always felt that what the emperor wanted to say would be related to the matter of taking a concubine.

The emperor looked at the back of Xie Chuyao leaving, and then waved his hand, letting the palace maids who were guarding the study retreat, and then looked at Shang Jingcheng seriously.

Shang Jingcheng also looked back at him without fear, and there was something called persistence in his eyes.

"In this border battle, you have a great reputation, which is very good, and with merit, the matter of giving way will be justified." The emperor's face was a little serious, completely devoid of the kind father he looked like just now, and he was always stern in front of business.

Shang Jingcheng looked at him and asked straight to the point, "What's the matter with Yu Ji?" Anyway, he believed he would understand his own questions.

The emperor was stunned for a moment, and asked with some surprise: "You, have you seen Yu Ji?" He wouldn't have asked himself that question if he hadn't seen it, and he suspected he might have known what he was going to do.

"Not only have I seen it, but I also started a fight." Seeing the emperor's suspicious eyes, he lowered his eyebrows and said, "She led someone to assassinate me." ”

"What? She, she's going to assassinate you? is so bold, they all say that Princess Yuji is in control of the spy organization of Liguo, so it seems that it is really good, how dare she be so bold! Didn't you promise to kiss! The emperor was so angry that he suddenly leaked his mouth, and when he reacted, he saw that Shang Jingcheng's face had already changed color.

"And pro? Where to get along? With whom to pro? Please also ask my father to make it clear. His questioning was so imposing that the emperor couldn't help but take a few steps backwards before he calmed down.

The emperor adjusted his mood and said with a calm face: "I am the only prince left, who else do you say you can be close to?" Ah Cheng, my father knows that you have a deep relationship with Yao'er, but as a prince, you can't marry only one woman, and in the future, this piece of country will be in your hands, even if you don't accept side concubines and flat wives now, you will have three palaces and six courtyards when you sit in that position in the future, Ah Cheng, why do you have to do this? ”

"Father, I always thought you loved Yao'er, but now it seems that you are only superficial to her, if it were your own daughter, would you think so? Father, I love Yao'er, in this life, as long as she is alone, if she is an emperor, she must have three palaces and six courts, then I would rather not be the emperor! Shang Jingcheng's face was full of anger, for the first time since he grew up, he felt that the person in front of him was extremely unfamiliar, as if he had returned to the cold-blooded and ruthless person he saw when he was a child.

The emperor raised his hand angrily, but he stared at him for a long time, and the hand couldn't be beaten down for a long time, so he sighed, turned his back to him and said, "Do you think that if you can, your father will want to make your husband and wife uncomfortable?" Let's not talk about Liguo, do you know how many pairs of eyes are staring at you in the entire capital now? You fought on the border, and with your military exploits, it also made some people jealous, and they were thinking about how to pull you off the stage all the time, do you know? ”

Even if most of those ministers are newly appointed now, but, except for one or two inconsequential positions, the others are the direct lines of the old ministers who died before, and the family roots are very deep, and, in recent times, it seems that many have begun to form factions, yes, he only has one son left in Shang Jingcheng, but there is only one direct line, but there are still three of them staring at this position there, if his only son is dead, then these thrones will fall into the hands of the side line, Now that General Xie is dead, the General's Mansion is no longer Cheng'er's reliance, he must find a few strong supporters, so that Cheng'er's seat can sit in peace.

Shang Jingcheng sneered, looked at him and said, "Saying so much, you are just afraid that your throne will fall into the hands of the side branch, have you thought about my feelings?" Have you ever thought about Yao'er's feelings? I love her, how can I watch her suffer? ”

"Why haven't I thought about your feelings? For you, I will take such pains and pains to pave the way for your future life, Cheng'er, don't be stupid, you can put her in your heart if you love her, but if the throne is gone, there is nothing, can you bear to watch the throne be occupied by the side branches? The Emperor exclaimed excitedly, because his mood fluctuated so much that he coughed incessantly, and the cough like a crack was uncomfortable to hear.

Shang Jingcheng finally sensed that something was wrong with him, frowned and helped him and asked, "What's wrong with you?" "I'll talk about the kiss later, and now it seems that his situation is a little bad.

The emperor broke away from his hand, coughed violently for a while, and only after calming down his breath did he wave his hand to him and said: "Don't worry, you can't die, it's just infected with some wind and cold, ah Cheng, after all, my father is old, and this throne will be passed to you soon, but when you haven't ascended the throne, your father has to plan for you!" ”

Even if he becomes the emperor in the future, with Liguo, the eldest princess who has mastered the secret agent, as a lining, his throne can sit more smoothly.

Shang Jingcheng slowly closed his eyes and said firmly: "Father, I beg you, although it is okay to hurt us in the name of our good?" Do you know? Let's not say I don't want to, just Yao'er's kind of temperament, she can't share her husband with others, father, if you really cherish her, even if it's for the sake of her dead father, don't force her, okay? Don't put our love in the dead end! With that, he said no more, turned and left the study.

The emperor looked at his back, slammed his hand and pulled all the scrolls on the desk to the ground, and cried out in grief: "Cheng'er, father is doing all this for your own good, father's days are numbered, not much!" With that, he clutched his aching chest and fell to the ground, spurting out a mouthful of blood.

After spitting out this mouthful of blood, he felt a little more comfortable, but his face was frighteningly pale, and a palace maid heard the noise and came in from outside, and was startled when she saw such a scene, and quickly greeted the other palace maids, and helped him to the bed in a panic.

"Call Li Dehai in." The Emperor's voice was a little old.

The palace maid went out in response, and after a while, she saw the old eunuch Li Dehai walking in with a bow and a small step.

"The old slave has seen the emperor." He secretly glanced at the emperor, and found that his face was wrong, and his heart sank, just now when he came from the Tai Hospital, he bumped into the fifth prince, and his expression was not very good, this father and son wouldn't be quarrelling, right?

The emperor waved his hand and said, "No need to be polite, go, find the book of the criminal department." "Since he doesn't want to get married, then it is always possible to find a daughter of the criminal department Shangshu, right?

Li Dehai hurriedly responded respectfully, and immediately went out to invite someone.

The Emperor waved his hand and said, "You all stand down, I want to rest for a while." "He really feels tired, he has to recuperate his spirits, and he has to deal with Jiang Rongzhi's old fox later.

Xie Chuyao also brought Ah Yimeng with her when she left the palace, and remembered that she said that she wanted to get to know Xiao Yunyi, so she thought about bringing her over, and her grandmother would like her when she saw her, maybe she was happy in her heart, and the illness would be cured.
