Chapter 474: A Game (4)
"How's Princess Celestia?"
"The princess is still recuperating, and she doesn't know about it yet." Su Haiyu reported for duty.
The Empress leaned back on the soft pillow a little tiredly, closed her eyes and pondered, but at the age of forty, she looked very old and tired.
"Su Hai, go and announce the entry of the third prince into the palace." There was a faint glimmer of light in his cloudy eyes.
When Su Hai went to summon Lin Shaowan, the empress suddenly felt a trace of remorse in her heart, and asked Ding Meiren beside her: "Yi'er, do you think a man can be the prince?" ”
"The concubines don't know, but it is reported that there was once a male emperor in history."
The Empress did not speak, but hung her head, her eyes empty and unsure of what she was thinking.
Ding Meiren saw that the empress no longer looked back to herself, and wandered around the room a little boringly.
The empress looked up at Ding Meiren, who was restless in the room, and the crease between her eyebrows deepened.
Her serious illness came quietly, and she also had doubts.
These days, the person who often serves himself is Ding Meiren, but I don't think he looks like such a scheming man.
That's it, she decided not to dwell on this issue anymore, she didn't have much time left, why not spend this last time with him.
Merely...... She still has to make a decision on the succession to the throne.
"Yi'er." Hearing the empress call herself, Ding Meiren walked up to her and smiled sweetly.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you, is there anything wrong with your body?"
The empress asked very bluntly, "What do you think of the three princes?" ”
"Concubine......" He lowered his head and hesitated, not knowing whether to say it or not.
The empress saw through his embarrassment and smiled slightly, "I love the concubine, but it doesn't hurt to say it, this is a family affair, not a state affair." ”
"That's all the concubine said," he suddenly raised his head, and his eyes were as bright as a small star.
The Empress nodded, leaning back on the soft pillow behind her, quietly ready to listen to him.
"The concubines think that the three princes have the wisdom of the prince and the amount of tolerance."
The empress nodded slightly, because his bloodline was unknown before, so she didn't have the idea of moving the prince.
However, he still believed that they were his own sons because of the man's words, and felt guilty for his years of neglect.
"What about Celestia?" She closed her eyes slightly and continued to ask.
"The princess is also very intelligent, but ...... The concubine didn't know much about the princess, and she didn't know what to say. ”
After Ding Meiren finished speaking, she looked at the empress who was still with her eyes closed.
After being silent for a long time, he said lightly: "It's very smart......
After an hour, Lin Shaowan was late.
glanced at Ding Meiren, who was guarding the empress's side, and there was a faint flash of light in her eyes.
"Sons, see the mother." Lin Shaowan saluted, and the empress asked him to get up and gave him a seat.
Ding Meiren also stood up very aware of the current affairs at this moment: "Your Majesty, the concubine will go and make a cup of tea for you and the third prince." ”
"Concubine Ai doesn't have to be busy." The Empress said lightly, feeling a little relieved in her heart about his knowledge.
Ding Meiren answered and sat back beside the empress obediently.
"Do you know anything about Siruo?" The Empress's tone was faint, and she couldn't hear the change in mood.
"Lord Anruo?" He was a little puzzled, not knowing why the mother emperor asked him this, "I don't know what happened recently?" ”
The Empress's gaze met his dark eyes sharply, and he met the Empress's sharp gaze without dodging.
