In the attic, Qi Luo drooped his eyelids and looked down at the pedestrians downstairs, remembering the figure he had just seen, and said to himself: "No wonder there will be troops assembled outside the city, it turns out that General Wei has returned." ”

When the words fell, the maidservant girl walked up to the attic and stood behind her and looked at her back: "Pavilion master, the lieutenant seems to be looking for a woman's jewelry." ”

"Women?" Qiluo frowned, and then chuckled: "Die'er, you don't have to report these things to me, I don't have time to worry about these, don't collect some useless news all day long." ”

"Got it, Pavilion Master." Butterfly turned and walked downstairs.

Qiluo continued to look at the pedestrians downstairs, lost in thought.

Wei Baiye walked downstairs and looked at the dazzling array of ornaments and ready-to-wear in the attic. He is the only man in this Luohua Pavilion, and other men who want to choose jewelry or tailor clothes for their wives and concubines will not come to the door in person. Standing among the many girls, the girls whispered one after another. He was tall and instantly recognizable.

Wei Baiye looked at the ornaments in the pavilion, and he really couldn't tell which one was better looking and which one was not good. I've been here for a long time, and I don't see Qiluo's figure, could it be that she is not in Luohua Pavilion?

Looking at the girls' scrutiny eyes, he became more and more embarrassed. Upstairs, Qiluo knew that he was waiting downstairs, but she refused to go downstairs.

Qiluo suddenly realized something, wasn't General Wei called back to leave the city by the emperor? Now that he has returned to Gurong City in a hurry, what happened? In the matter of Gurong, apart from the remnants of Fei Rong, Qiluo really couldn't think of any other reason for General Wei to come back.

Thinking of this, Qiluo turned around and hurriedly walked downstairs, and shouted to the maidservant not far away: "Die'er, come here." ”

"Here we are."

Yu Baiye heard a familiar voice, and looked at the source of the sound, a delicate face reflected in his pupils, and the eyes of the two met. Qiluo curled the corners of her lips and sneered contemptuously. Yu Baiye was about to speak, but Qiluo had already turned around and walked upstairs.

Yu Baiye sighed, bought a bunch of jewelry, and left here.

Qiluo stood in the attic, looking at the man who was holding the jewelry box in the market: "It's normal to have a wife at this age, is the wife also coming to Gurong?" ”

"Pavilion master, what are you looking for a slave?"

"Go and find out why General Wei returned to Gurong City."

"Got it, Pavilion Master." Butterfly retreated, leaving Qiluo alone in the attic.

She hung her head, her chest was a little tight, and she simply got up and went back to the bedroom of the mansion to rest. I hadn't seen anyone for a long time, and when we met again, he was no longer the same person he used to be.

Out of town.

Early in the morning, Yu Ziyu woke up. Father and brother are gone, the governor's mansion is no longer as lively as before, the subordinates are doing their part, and she is living her life as usual. It's just that she doesn't know how her father is now, whether he has arrived in Yue'an City, whether he has settled down, and whether he has started to take action.

Yue'an City was once the capital of the Feirong Kingdom, and Zhong Liyu was also in the royal palace of Yue'an City. How could she find an excuse to go to Yue'an City? How can she make Qiao Jiang show her feet?

In the battle for the crown between His Royal Highness the Sixth and His Royal Highness King Xian, whose pawn will she become? Compared with herself, she was more afraid that the two of them would hurt Zhongli Boqian.

In the Imperial Palace, Zhong Liyue kept coughing, his face was pale, and there was no trace of blood. Before he knew it, he had lost a lot of weight, the skin on his face was loose, and his cheeks were sunken.

"Ahem......" Zhongli covered his chest with his dry hands, coughing heartbreakingly.

"Father." Zhongli Boqian accompanied him, anxious and at a loss, the imperial doctor changed batch after batch, but still no cause was found. Ye Qianqian stood not far away and looked at the father and son, her frowning brows never relaxed. Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was banned in the Zhuxin Palace, she has never used medicine for the emperor again, but she didn't expect that the effect of the medicine will only show up until now. Looking at his suffering and sinful appearance, Ye Qianqian was a little unbearable.

Since she entered the palace, the emperor has treated her very well, never doubted her, and never neglected her. She has always understood that she is just the shadow of Concubine Xian, but if there is no emperor, she is still living in dire straits.

It's a pity that the crown princess is dead, if she is still alive, maybe she can cure this poison.

"Pass the order down and block the news of my illness."

"Yes." Zhao Gonggong heard the sound and walked down.

"Qian'er, you can review and fold for me!" Zhongli opened his lips weakly, his eyes were red, and his gaze fell on the anxious Zhongli Boqian: "I'm tired, can Qian'er share some of it for me?" ”

Zhongli Boqian heard his father's coaxing tone, so he had to open the recital and sit aside to read it carefully.

Seeing this, Ye Qianqian walked to Zhong Liyue and sat down, personally took the medicine bowl in the hands of the slave maid, and personally took care of Zhong Liyue.

Zhong Li looked at him more seriously, maybe he was not the same as the rumors, the Qian'er he saw at the moment was a steady and serious man.

Zhong Li Boqian looked at the content of the recital, most of them were saying that Zhong Liyi had a very good relationship with Wei Shangqing, and that Wei Shangqing returned to Yue'an City to let the tiger return to the mountain. Some people also say that Wei Shangqing has a good relationship with King Xian, and although Wei Shangqing goes to Yue'an City to suppress the remnants of Feirong, it is also a big hidden danger.

To put it simply, except for those few generals, except for Sima Shangshu, Jun Shangshu, and Zhang Yushi, everyone thought that the existence of General Wei was a danger to the Great Qi Dynasty.

Zhongli Boqian's brows furrowed tighter and tighter, these people ...... How can you treat General Wei like this?

Isn't the person who goes into battle to kill the enemy a general? The person who rushed to the front was not General Wei? Isn't the defender of the country a general? Wasn't the current stability of the Great Qi Dynasty bought with the blood of General Wei and the soldiers?

When they said this, they just wanted to use the status of General Wei to drag down one of the two elder brothers who were expected to ascend to the throne of the prince.

No matter who drags down, General Wei will be sacrificed by them.

Did they do these things at the behest of their brother? Or did you get the instruction of the sixth brother?

Zhongli Boqian thought about it and hugged his head frantically. There was a buzzing in his head, and both of them were his brothers who treated him very well. Do you have to make a trade-off?

"Qian'er......" Zhongli saw his collapse and patiently comforted: "Ahem...... Qian'er, take your time. ”

"Father, can't you make a prince as soon as possible?" Zhongli Boqian pondered for a moment and spoke.

"I want to do it too! But the voices of the court are inconsistent, half of them support your brother, and half of them support your sixth brother, and I still ...... Cough...... I didn't think about how to weigh them! Zhong Liyue looked at him meaningfully: "Has Qian'er ever thought about ......?"

"No ......" Zhong Li Boqian interrupted Zhong Liyue's words, he had never thought of becoming a generation of emperors, he had never thought about it.

Zhongli Boqian sat on the Imperial Palace for a long time, Qiao Zhen came with the maids and minions, and saw Zhongli Boqian sitting next to Zhongli Yue reviewing the recitals, and a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.

Could it be that the emperor wants Zhongli Boqian, who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun, to succeed to the throne?

When Zhongli Boqian and Ye Qianqian saw her coming, they got up and saluted, and then they went about their own business.

Qiao Zhen stepped forward, glared at Ye Qianqian, who was sitting on the edge of the couch, and grinned: "Concubine Xian is tired, and she takes care of the emperor all the time. ”

Zhongli Boqian raised his eyes and glanced at her, and continued to look at the fold in his hand, looking quite distressed.

"The emperor occasionally feels cold, and when he comes to rest in the palace of his sister, my sister naturally has to take good care of the emperor." Ye Qianqian put down the medicine bowl in her hand and gently patted Zhong Liyue's shoulder, signaling him to rest in peace.

"Occasional chills?" Qiao Zhen obviously didn't believe it, but she didn't show much abnormality: "Has the imperial doctor seen it?" ”

"Naturally, I've seen it."

Qiao Zhen raised her eyes and looked, the people on the couch did not have a trace of spirit, where did they look like people who occasionally felt cold, but like people who were terminally ill. She paused for a moment, then turned to leave.

Now that the emperor is terminally ill, then ...... She and Qiao Jiang had to hurry up, so as not to be taken advantage of. Only by seizing the opportunity can it be possible to win in this game. After so many years, does she still care about Zhong Liyue's life or death? Do you still care if you are favored?

All she cares about is whether her child can become the future emperor, and she is willing to give everything she has for it.

Zhongli Boqian looked at the departing figure, she was not in a hurry or slow, and her attitude towards her father was not lukewarm. He stayed for a long time, and it wasn't until Zhongli Yue fell asleep and woke up again that he got up to leave.

He had to go to Ziyu first, tell him about the situation, and then go to his brother to talk to the sixth brother.

Wei Ziyu received the news from Zhongli Boqian, and quietly left the Wei Mansion, and no one in the whole mansion knew her whereabouts except Heiyue. When she arrived at the bamboo house outside the city, Zhongli Boqian had been waiting for a long time.

Zhongli Boqian saw her figure, and hurriedly got up to greet her: "Ziyu, I haven't seen you for a few days, have you missed me?" ”

"Yes! Thought a lot about you. Wei Ziyu did not deny it.

"You don't miss me!" Zhongli Boqian muttered.

"Why doesn't it count?" Wei Ziyu asked in a low voice.

Zhongli Boqian took her into his arms and said with a smile: "Boqian is so tired! was locked up by his father in the Imperial Palace for a whole day to review the recital. ”

"Reviewing the recital?" Wei Ziyu was shocked, could it be that he was the ideal prince in the emperor's heart?

"That's right! The father is sick and looks serious. The imperial doctors in the palace were helpless and could not find out the cause. ”

"Can't find the cause?" Wei Ziyu thought for a moment and asked, "What are the emperor's symptoms?" ”

"There was only a cough, but it lasted for a long time, at first it was just a slight cough, and then it was stimulated by the eldest brother and the third brother, and the condition worsened."

"This ......" This is really not within the scope of her diagnosis, if Mr. Qi and Qing Yingyu are there, maybe they know what is going on: "Bo Qian is saying that the imperial doctors in the palace can't find out the cause?" ”

"Uh-huh."

"It's unlikely, no matter what kind of incurable disease or poisoning, there will always be people who will find clues, I'm afraid they don't want to tell the truth." Wei Ziyu didn't believe that the imperial doctor in the palace would be so cowardly.
