Chu Yaocen smiled faintly, his fingertips wrapped around Qingdi's hair, and said confidently: "I will not be wrong at any time." ”

Qingdi's gaze shifted from his skeletal wrist to his unwavering face, which she was quite familiar with, and could accurately draw every detail with her eyes closed. She also knows quite well about the character of the man she loves. He is like a fire, he has a long-term vision, he will never be wrong, even if he is wrong, he will immediately have a way to change, he can always do everything well, he is always reassuring.

But this time, Qingdi had an ominous premonition about Zhang Xiuhe.

Chu Yaocen could see the worry in the depths of her eyes, so he reached out and pinched her face, and joked: "Look at how long you have only been in Wu Kingdom, your skin has become more delicate and silky than before, I now like Wu Kingdom more and more watery places, and I am reluctant to give up Wu Country to Zhang Xiuhe in the future, why don't we merge Li Country and Wu Kingdom, and then move the imperial capital to Jianye, and we will govern the world here, how about it?" ”

Qingdi was amused by his statement, glanced at him, and said: "You are quite broad-minded, obviously there is nothing now, Li Guo may not be able to defeat it, and you still want to take both countries into your arms, you are really conceited." ”

Chu Yaocen didn't feel that this sentence was reproaching him at all, but generously admitted: "The first day you knew me? I've always been so conceited. ”

Qingdi didn't want to talk to him anymore, so he took his hand away and said, "I'm hungry, you go and ask someone to prepare a meal, and I want to sleep when I eat." ”

"It's been ready for a long time."

Chu Yaocen beckoned the palace maid to bring the meal, and after the two had dinner, Qingdi went to rest.

After she fell asleep, Zhang Xiuhe came over, Chu Yaocen went out to see him, and said helplessly: "You have provoked her recently." ”

Zhang Xiuhe was stunned for a moment, and said inexplicably: "Brother Lu said that I provoked someone?" Messing with your cousin? ”

Chu Yaocen nodded: "Yes, originally she and I both thought that you were more suitable to rule the Wu Kingdom, but this morning's time made her look better, and she is now very optimistic about the third prince." Originally, the Third Prince couldn't talk about being your opponent at all, but if she really planned to temporarily assist the Third Prince now, then the Third Prince would definitely have an advantage over you. ”

Zhang Xiuhe pondered Chu Yaocen's words, was silent for a moment, and asked suspiciously: "Cousin's ability is indeed obvious to all, but is she really that powerful?" Could her decision have such a serious impact on us? ”

Chu Yaocen smiled faintly, after the death of the crown prince, none of the remaining people in the Wu royal family had any experience in governing the country, but Qingdi was different, she not only had, but also governed a big country. So if you want to turn this little country upside down, it's not easy.

Zhang Xiuhe didn't hear Chu Yaocen's answer, but looking at the plausible chuckle on his lips, he felt that his question was a little stupid.

"If my cousin only changed her opinion of me today, then maybe the reason is that I told her about the disagreement between the second prince and the third prince in the court in the morning, so that she mistakenly thought that I had ulterior motives." Zhang Xiuhe showed a little helplessness and said: "Actually, I am really kind, and I don't mean to provoke, which makes my cousin misunderstand." ”

Chu Yaocen smiled noncommittally, this person is really unreal, if it was him, he would honestly admit that he just wanted to provoke, that is, he wanted to make the old emperor who was about to die die in peace.

However, for his partner, Chu Yaocen still has to give him a little face. He didn't care about these things with him anymore, and instead said: "By the way, I have already developed a prescription for the treatment of insect Gu disease, I have tried the medicine on the sick dog, and there is no problem at all on the dog, but whether it is useful for people, I am not qualified to go to the patient to test the medicine." You take it and try it. If it can indeed be used, you have the merit of saving the people of Wu, and when you usurp the throne in the future, you will be more sure. ”

Zhang Xiuhe corrected Chu Yaocen's statement while taking the medicine, and said: "It's not a usurpation, it's just that the government can do this kind of thing, I think I can do better than the two princes, it's just because I don't have the conditions that they were born with." ”

Chu Yaocen chuckled: "Whatever." ”

Chu Yaocen's temperament of not asking much about everything is really good. Zhang Xiuhe took the bottle of medicine in his hand and weighed it, and asked, "How will this be used at that time?" ”

"It's good to boil it in boiling water and drink it, and if it does have an effect, you can see it at once. If you really can, you can tell me again, find some people to help me, and make this medicine in large quantities. Chu Yaocen said.

"Okay, I see." Zhang Xiuhe nodded, was silent for a moment, and said, "This is a great merit, do you really want to give me this merit?" ”

Chu Yaocen hooked the corners of his mouth and said, "If you want to usurp the throne, I want to rebel and help each other." ”

Zhang Xiuhe was not afraid at all when he said that he was seeking power and usurping the throne, but also, this was not in his country, and he had nothing to be afraid of. But he was still worried that others would listen to what he said in the palace, so he said goodbye to Chu Yaocen after putting away the medicine.

Chu Yaocen was fine for the time being, so he walked around his residence at will, as a doctor, he would not sleep when he was full like Qingdi. When he felt that it was almost over, he went over and squeezed into Qingdi's bed, hugged Qingdi into his arms and slept together.

This sleep will be at night, for the two who have not had a good rest for several days, if it weren't for the sudden arrival of Xiaohu at this time, they might really have to sleep until tomorrow morning.

Xiaohu ran over crying, and when the palace maid saw her appearance, she immediately went in to wake up Chu Yaocen and Qingdi. After listening to the palace maid's words, Qingdi sobered up a lot, and immediately got dressed and went out to see Xiaohu, and asked, "Why are you crying so sadly?" Did something happen? ”

Xiaohu suddenly threw himself into Qingdi's arms and cried: "Father...... My father died......"

Qingdi was stunned for a moment, how could it be so sudden? When I talked to him at noon, he was fine......

While the two were talking, Chu Yaocen also came out, and after listening to Xiaohu's words, he had a number in his heart. The disease of rocks is like this, like earthquakes and storms, completely unpredictable, and it is likely that you are talking to you and suddenly die.

He went over and patted Qingdi's shoulder lightly, and said softly, "Come and take a look with the princess, everyone should be there at this time." ”

Qingdi nodded and comforted Xiaohu: "Xiaohu, let's go over and take a look, your mother and brothers need you now." ”

Xiaohu rubbed her eyes, sobbed and nodded, and Qingdi took her hand and passed.

After the two of them left, Chu Yaocen saw that the killing was also there, and he looked at the back of Xiaohu leaving worriedly, as if he wanted to follow, but in the end he didn't move.

Chu Yaocen understood in his heart and asked, "You have been by the princess's side for the past two days?" ”

After finishing the killing, he turned his face and replied to Chu Yaocen: "I don't know why the princess has been pestering me recently, and I can't help it, so I have to go with the princess." Just now the princess was still pulling me to do some boring things, and suddenly someone came to tell the princess that Her Majesty had died, and the princess was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then she cried and came to find Madame. ”

"Are you going to go over and stay with her now?" Chu Yaocen asked again.

Wan Kill thought about it and shook his head: "It's not suitable for me to follow the past, forget it, the emperor will die sooner or later, and she will have to accept this grief sooner or later." ”

Chu Yaocen nodded: "It seems that things are developing faster than I imagined, I don't know what happened to Zhang Xiuhe......

Zhang Xiuhe was still outside the palace, and he did not dare to slack off for a moment to watch the patient's condition after taking the medicine. The others had already arrived at the emperor's bedchamber.

After Xiaohu and Qingdi ran in, the second prince and the third prince both turned their heads to look at them, Qingdi glanced at the two of them, turned his head and Qingdi patted Xiaohu on the back, but he didn't know what to say.

Xiaohu's tears that had just stopped flowed again, she walked to the empress who was sitting next to the emperor, knelt beside the bed, glanced at the emperor who was lying there peacefully, looked at the empress again, and cried and asked, "Why did my father die so suddenly?" Queen ......"

The queen came back to her senses, glanced down at Xiaohu, stretched out her hand to take Xiaohu into her arms, sobbed softly, and said, "Yes, I'm in too much of a hurry, I didn't have time to call you to come and see him for the last time......"

Xiaohu threw himself into the queen's arms and cried heartbreakingly.

Qingdi couldn't see such a scene the most, obviously the emperor had nothing to do with her, but seeing Xiaohu and the queen so sad, she still felt uncomfortable, so she quietly walked outside the palace.

After a while, Qingdi felt that someone behind him seemed to be coming out, so he looked back and saw that it was the second prince, so he quickly took a step back and looked straight at him.

The second prince looked at her like a deer frightened by something, and reluctantly pulled out a smile, and said, "Are you so afraid of me now?" ”

Qingdi hurriedly shook his head: "No, it's just that the second prince, your family is inside, isn't it okay for you to come out alone?" ”

"What's so bad?" The second prince sighed: "I went in just now and saw my father's face, his expression was so peaceful, he had already made sufficient preparations, and he had also paved the way for our country of Wu in the future." He is really a great man, and in the course of ruling the Wu Kingdom for more than 30 years, he has always guarded the people of the Wu Kingdom. ”

Qingdi nodded and said, "It's good that the second prince sees it, Wu Guo needs your unity the most at this moment." Tomorrow, when the three princes ascend the throne, what will you plan? ”

"What can I do?" The second prince said helplessly: "The third brother is also my younger brother, and his ability will not be worse than mine." Both the father and the queen mother have chosen him, and in the future, I can only help him. ”

Hearing these words, Qingdi knew that the emperor knew his son more deeply. How can such a relationship be a brotherly wall in order to seek power and seize the throne?

"We need your help too." The second prince suddenly looked at Qingdi, and said such a sentence in a resolute tone.
