Chapter 775: Enemy
Pei Guifei looked at him with tenderness and said, "His Royal Highness King An has suffered this catastrophe, and it is not good to take on the role of the prince again. The adults thought that the four princes were too young, and they were afraid that they would follow in the footsteps of Southern Chu and cause the imperial power to fall. β
When the emperor heard this, he suddenly had an ominous premonition.
Sure enough, Pei Guifei continued: "But Your Majesty has no adult prince, what should I do?" Therefore, an adult made a suggestion to make the king of Yue the crown prince......"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" Wan Dabao suddenly screamed, but saw that the emperor's eyes widened, and there was a gurgling sound in his throat, and he tried his best to stretch out his hand, but he couldn't lift it at all, and his anger rushed to his head, and the corners of his mouth suddenly flowed blood.
Zhong Yue was at the door, heard the voice, and hurried in.
Seeing this situation, he quickly pierced out a few golden needles to temporarily stop the emperor's vomiting of blood.
"Hurry up and decoct the medicine," Zhong Yue asked for a prescription, turned out one of them, slightly increased or decreased the amount, "Your Majesty's blood fever is not stopped, you can't delay!" β
Wan Dabao wiped his tears and took the prescription: "Our family will ask someone to fry it." β
The Emperor watched him leave the hospital bed quickly, so angry that blood almost gushed out again.
Zhong Yue fiddled with the golden needle for a while, made sure that his condition was stable, and arched his hand: "The grass people go to study the prescription, if there is any further change, Niangniang will call me immediately." β
Pei Guifei nodded: "Go ahead." β
Everyone else is gone, and only Pei Guifei is left in front of the hospital bed.
Pei Guifei held the emperor's hand, still looking tender and sweet, and carefully helped him tuck the corners of the quilt: "Your Majesty, don't worry, Zhang Xiang and they will come to you soon to ask for instructions." Alas, this is also a matter of no way, the eldest prince abolished the crown prince, the second prince rebelled and died, but King An broke his leg again, and under your knees, there are only four or five princes left. But they are too young to take on a big responsibility, and now that the Southern Chu Dynasty is in turmoil, it is the best time for Daqi, and the adults are reluctant to let go, so they want to establish the king of Yue as the prince. β
When she said these words, her expression was soft, no different from the past, but her eyes no longer had the slightest affection, like a pool of spring water in the ice and snow, looking weak and clear, but cold to the bone.
The emperor was a spirit, his eyes widened wider and wider, and his heart slid down to the abyss.
Chaise......
Pei Guifei smiled softly and continued: "Don't worry, King Yue is young and strong, and he is both civil and military, and he will definitely be able to take on heavy responsibilities." If he can sweep away Southern Chu in one fell swoop and complete the great cause of unification, Emperor Taizu will definitely be very pleased in the spirit of heaven. When he was alive, this was what he was thinking about, but unfortunately, Prince Sihuai and King Jin of Qin did not keep any of them, and finally you succeeded to the throne. You have been an idle prince since you were a child, how can you compare to them who grew up in battle? It has taken a lot of effort to govern the country like this, and it is understandable that it has failed to fulfill Emperor Taizu's last wish. It doesn't matter, these things, with King Yue to help you do them in the future, you don't have to remember them. β
If at the beginning, the emperor still had hope, Pei Guifei didn't mean it, listening to these words, he didn't have any luck.
She did it on purpose!
Pei Guifei smiled, looking at him from shock to anger, to hatred and resentment, her expression remained the same, and her voice was always soft.
"What does Your Majesty want to say?"
The Emperor raised his hand with great effort, pointed it at her with a trembling voice, made two muffled noises in his throat, and finally squeezed out only a plausible word: "You ......"
"How am I?" Pei Guifeizai looked at his face carefully, and suddenly sighed, "Your Majesty is much older!" I want to see you for the first time in Zhegui Building, you pretended to be the prince of Wen Guo, and you were really young and romantic. In the blink of an eye, more than twenty years have passed, Your Majesty is old, and I am also old. β
Pei Guifei reached out and touched her face, her expression was soft under the light, as if flowing with spring water, falling into memory.
"I met Ah Jing at the age of fifteen. On Daughter's Day that year, he gave me a flower by the water. To this day, I still remember the way he gave me flowers, the boy was shy, and his ears were red. After waiting for two years, we finally got married, but unfortunately the relationship between husband and wife is shallow, and he left after only one year. β
Pei Guifei looked down at the emperor, and the affection in her eyes faded in an instant.
She said lightly: "Your Majesty has ever heard a word?" The white head is as new, and the lid is as old as ever. Some people, who have lived together all their lives, are no different from strangers. And some people, as long as they meet for a while, they can never forget it. β
The Emperor was speechless, only a ho-ho sound came from his throat, and his eyes were about to burst with anger.
Why? He shouted in his heart, why the hell?
Where is he sorry for her? Give her pampering, give her position, give her everything she can. Isn't it enough to even tolerate that kid alive for her sake?
For so many years, so many years, she was in front of him, is it all fake? Those gentle and petty, those affectionate feelings, are they all fake?
"Your Majesty, do you think that you are very good to your concubines?" Pei Guifei nodded, "Yes, it's really good." The concubine is the most favored concubine in the harem, and she has been in the palace for 23 years and has been favored for 23 years. Whether it is the queen and concubine Hui who accompanied you when you were a teenager, or the delicate beauties who entered the palace later, they are not as favored as the concubines. But have you forgotten ......?"
She leaned forward, calmly looked at the emperor's old face, and said word by word: "You are the enemy of the concubine!" β
The Emperor clenched his teeth and almost wanted to make a soundβthis was of course his delusion, in fact he didn't even have the strength to grit his teeth, but only the upper and lower teeth collided with him because of the trembling.
Pei Guifei no longer had a smile on her face, and looked at him coldly.
The emperor had a feeling in a trance, as if he had gone back more than twenty years, back to the time when she was still the princess of Yongxi.
At that time, she married the emperor's eldest grandson and became his niece and daughter-in-law.
When she looked at him, it was like this, polite and thoughtful, but cold and indifferent.
He is just an idle king, but she is the concubine of the emperor's eldest grandson, if there is no accident, she will become the crown princess in the future, and even the queen.
Although he was an uncle, his status was far inferior to that of her husband.
The feeling of being far away kept him awake day and night.
It wasn't until later that she was widowed and lost her support.
When they met again, he had already ascended the throne, and he could finally bow his head and look down at her and take her into the palm of his hand.
For him, getting this woman was like getting rid of the days when he had lowered his eyebrows and bowed his head, and this brought him great satisfaction.
What's more, she is beautiful and noble, talented and courteous, and she is the best woman selected by her father from the ladies of the entire Qi country.
is not like his queen, who only relied on a little credit from his ancestors to become Princess Zhao.
Many times, he looked at her child and thought to himself that if this was born to him and her, even if he risked the world, he would abolish the elder and leave the throne to him.
But he wasn't.
He was the child of her ex-husband, whom she hated.
The better he is, the more it looks like a mockery.
Laughing at himself, even the children he gave birth to, are so stupid.
