On the third day of Concubine Hui's illness, the emperor finally went to her side.

Concubine Hui on the hospital bed heard that the emperor was coming, so she hurriedly called the palace people to come over and serve and dress.

As soon as he got out of bed, the emperor came in and said, "Don't be busy, you are sick, take care of yourself, don't toss anymore." ”

His voice couldn't hear joy and anger, but this had the meaning of "don't make any more trouble", Concubine Hui responded, and asked the palace people to pour tea and soup.

"Your Majesty, your hands are cold in winter, so drink a bowl of tea soup to warm up first. Isn't it too stuffy in the house? Mama, open the window to breathe! ”

The emperor stopped her, probably because Concubine Hui's thoughtfulness reminded him of the tenderness of the past, and his voice softened: "I came to talk to you, you just lie down." "Tell the palace people, "Don't you help the mother to bed?" How do you serve? ”

Concubine Hui looked at him with emotion, almost crying.

"Your Majesty......" She looked at the emperor's face infatuatedly, although it was not as delicate and beautiful as when she was young, but her eyes were still so clear and gentle.

The emperor also relented.

He waved his hand to let the palace people retreat, sat down on the edge of the bed by himself, and talked to her: "I know your thoughts. But if the second child is a little angry, I will not punish him like this. The will to seize the title is made by me, but the most heartache is also me! I only have such a few sons, the third was born after he ascended the throne, and I was too busy to take care of it at that time. The eldest and second were born in the Zhao Palace, and I was an idle king at the beginning, and I got along with them a lot and had a deep relationship. ”

"Your Majesty......" Concubine Hui wept.

The Emperor continued: "I have always had expectations for the second child, hoping that he can assist the eldest and be brothers of the same heart. I don't want them to be bigger, but more and more centrifuged. I saw it in my eyes, how heartbroken. My own brothers, who had a deep friendship when they were young, why did they become incompatible? What kind of bad tricks are used, just to deal with their own brothers? These days, I am also reflecting on myself, whether I can raise or not, my father's fault! ”

Concubine Hui cried: "No, it's not Your Majesty's fault. You have so many national affairs to take care of, where can you take care of your children. It's the concubine, it's the concubine who didn't manage him well! He would occasionally say in front of his concubines that the eldest prince had such a good master to teach, but he always wasted his time and didn't know how to cherish it. The concubine always reprimanded him, not to talk about the eldest brother, and never reasoned with him. Who knew that he became more and more radical later, and he had such thoughts. Your Majesty, it was the concubine's fault that he didn't stop it in time. ”

"Okay, okay, don't cry, I understand." The emperor appeased him for a while, and then said, "He is your son, and he is also my son, don't I feel distressed?" The depth of love is the responsibility. If you want to see him, call him. Sending winter clothes is not a big deal, there is no need to be so careful, if you want to hand things in the future, just say to Wan Dabao. ”

Concubine Hui was grateful, remembered to thank her, and was pressed by the emperor again.

Concubine Hui had to hold his hand, thanked him repeatedly, and thanked Concubine Pei again: "Sister Pei came to visit before, and the concubine intended to ask her for a favor from you, but she didn't dare to say it. I didn't know that she was so thoughtful, she guessed the concubine's thoughts, and took the initiative to tell you about it. Sister Pei is really smart and kind-hearted. Obviously, Cheng'er was sorry for her, but she didn't care at all, and came to help the concubine. If she hadn't interceded on behalf of her concubine, the concubine wouldn't have been able to say such psychological words to His Majesty. The concubine is old, and she is always sick, and she is haggard like this, it is not good to always come to Your Majesty's eyes, and with Sister Pei taking care of Your Majesty, the concubine can rest assured. ”

The emperor's expression was faint and a little unfathomable.

Concubine Hui seemed to be in a mood, didn't pay attention, and praised Concubine Pei vigorously. said that she has been in the palace for so many years and is so good to everyone, and there is no one in the palace who doesn't like it. Moreover, he is single-minded to the emperor, never invites favors, and is indifferent to fame and fortune, no wonder there is a good reward. It is said that people are beautiful and kind, and this is indeed the case. He also said that he wanted to do a few embroidery jobs, thanks to Pei Guifei.

The emperor naturally told her not to do it, and to recuperate from her illness, and it was good to have this intention.

The two concubines talked for a while, and the emperor finally left.

Wen Xiuyi came in from outside the house again and asked her, "What is Niangniang doing?" Finally, Your Majesty came to visit, why do you keep praising the concubine if you don't talk about your own business? Invite a pet for her? ”

Concubine Hui leaned on the head of the bed, drank the medicine, slowly wiped the stains on her lips with a handkerchief, and said: "You don't understand, in the palace, you have to give a person eye medicine, you can't say bad things, you have to say good things." ”

Wen Xiuyi furrowed her brows, not understanding what she meant.

Concubine Hui said: "I told you that our majesty is both affectionate and ruthless. said that he was affectionate, and he still had some affection for me, an old and decrepit concubine. said that he was ruthless, and that he only loved himself in his heart. Come and see me, one is the concubine's request, and the other is that I am still useful. ”

"Useful?" Wen Xiuyi didn't understand it even more, her eyes looked her up and down, and the meaning of contempt was clear.

Concubine Hui didn't know, and said with a smile: "You think I don't have a posture anymore, I can't look at it, don't you?" ”

Wen Xiuyi pursed her lips and said nothing, but that's what she meant.

Concubine Hui smiled: "Then let me ask you, everyone in the world knows that he loves the concubine to the point of almost being favored, why does he still raise us unfavored concubines from time to time?" ”

Without waiting for Wen Xiuyi to answer, she said, "You want to say that he is affectionate, don't you?" Oh, whether a person cares about you or not, you can feel it. He has been here for so long, and when he sees me sick like this, do you have a pity or two in his eyes? ”

Concubine Hui's voice was cold, and she continued: "Of course, one thing is true. There are so many people in the harem, and the only one he really loves is the concubine. It's just that this love is not as pure as others think. He had an inexplicable distrust of the concubine, and seemed to believe that she would not love him, which kept him in a constant state of panic. As an emperor, how can he be swayed by panic? Therefore, he always unconsciously uses such a small means, while favoring her to the extreme, and at the same time examining her. Therefore, I, the concubine, have to appear once in a while, so that the concubine has a sense of crisis, and always remember to please him. ”

Wen Xiuyi couldn't figure it out, and said, "Your harem is really complicated. ”

Concubine Hui smiled: "There is the greatest power in the world here, how can it not be complicated?" I just praised the concubine like that, not only will he not be happy, but he will also be suspicious of the concubine's purpose. Everyone praised her, but what about him, the emperor? Where should it be placed? ”

Wen Xiuyi was silent for a long time, and said: "The concubine is not bad to you, are you a little kind of revenge?" ”

Concubine Hui said lightly: "In this palace, where is there any grace and love?" Your Majesty is suspicious, so you don't have the heart to keep remembering Cheng'er's mistake, isn't it? ”(https:)
