In the wee hours of the morning, ugly times.

The wind outside the East Palace was whistling, through the windowsill, into the prince's room.

The sleeping prince snored loudly and slept very sweetly.

For the crown prince, the most relaxing moment is to lie in bed and sleep for a few hours.

Because this is the only time for him to really rest.

For ten years, he has been handling official business for his father, and his father doesn't care about internal affairs, so he has to take care of it.

The more you manage, the more power you have, and with it, you don't get enough sleep every day and you're physically and mentally exhausted.

Running continuously like this, the prince's already bad body has become a little stretched.

The cool breeze blew across the windowsill and onto the prince's body.

The prince, who was covered with a quilt, felt the temperature drop sharply, and couldn't help but shiver.

But he hadn't woken up yet, and he was still asleep.

Snoring, thunder!

The fatter the person, the louder the snoring, and the prince's snoring is enough to shock a cow to death.

Because the snoring was too loud and too loud, the fat on the prince's body trembled.

With every breath, the fat shook violently.

When you exhale, it becomes calm.

And so on and so forth.

The crown princess, who was sleeping next to her, seemed to have been used to this situation, and every night, the princess would prepare earplugs and put them into her ears, so that she could not hear anything.

Even if the crown prince turned over and made a loud noise, the princess still slept peacefully, very sweet.

A cool breeze blew again.

Through the window, blowing directly onto the bed, this is the wind through the hall, the coldest.

The prince trembled and sneezed fiercely.

The sneeze went down, giving the prince a little sign of awakening.

He glanced at the crown princess beside him in a daze, and squinted his eyes and looked out the window: "Who doesn't close the window, how cold is it." ”

got up, and couldn't care about continuing to sleep, the prince turned over and got out of bed, and was about to close the window.

Thinly dressed, he walked towards the windowsill.

Step by step, it's a little hard.

A cool breeze was piercing through him.

It was cold, and it made him cold.

Suddenly, the crown prince's throat seemed to have something gushing up.

The prince couldn't hold back and vomited.

He covered his mouth, for fear of disturbing the crown princess.

vomited several times in a row, and the prince's expression visibly languished.

He put down his hand, spread out his palm and looked, and suddenly his pupils shrank slightly.

It's blood.

Crimson blood.

There's also a little bit of white stuff mixed in.

The blood on the palm of his hand was so dazzling, piercing into the heart of the prince.

The prince looked at the blood in his hands, and his heart was weak and could not be calm.

Some time ago, he also coughed up blood, which scared the crown princess a lot.

Now, he's coughing up blood again.

But fortunately, he covered it with his hand in time, otherwise he would have to worry the crown princess again.

He looked at the blood on his thick palms and smiled bitterly: "This year, I am only thirty-eight years old......

In history, Zhu Gaochi of Mingrenzong was not in good health since he was a child, and his life was short.

Even, Zhu Di was worried that he would die early, so he also had the idea of abolishing the prince.

Now, he is only thirty-eight years old, and his health is already so poor, Zhu Gaochi doesn't know that he still has a few years to live.

First of all, the most reluctant is the crown princess and her son.

Zhu Gaochi turned around, glanced at the sleeping princess on the bed, and muttered, "If I'm gone, who will protect you." ”

"You have been married to me for more than ten years, and your temper is still like a little girl who has just come out of the cabinet, arrogant and arrogant, if I leave, you will suffer in the palace."

With a sigh, Zhu Gaochi thought of Zhanji again.

"Junki's kid has just recovered his identity, and he hasn't even been in the royal family for half a year."

"He doesn't know how sinister this court is, he doesn't know what responsibilities he has to bear as a royal family, he doesn't have a solid foundation, and now the second brother is rebelling again......"

Zhu Gaochi muttered: "I don't know if I can last a few more years, I just want to accompany them more." ”

The crown princess woke up in a daze and muttered, "What are you muttering there? It's not dawn yet, so let's go back to sleep. ”

Zhu Gaochi hurriedly hid his palms behind him and said with a smile: "I won't sleep tonight, the court still has official documents to deal with, I'll go first." ”

With that, he put on a garment and opened the door.

Outside the door, several eunuchs knelt down and saluted: "Prince, where are you going so late?" ”

"Prince, it's not dawn yet."

A calm smile appeared on Zhu Gaochi's face.

"It's okay, I'll go to the court."

After saying that, he walked towards the outside of the East Palace, and several eunuchs hurriedly followed him closely, lighting lanterns for him.

Zhu Gaochi greeted the cool breeze and went to the imperial study.

Today, it is a small pilgrimage.

Although the hundred officials do not need to go to the court, the important civil official still has to come.

After Zhu Gaochi came to the imperial study, he sat in front of the dragon case, opened a copy of the book, and carefully reviewed it.

When the time came, the civil servants came one after another.

Seeing that the prince was already reviewing the folds, he couldn't help but be stunned.

"The prince is diligent!"

"Admire."

After several civil officials discussed with the prince, the voice of a eunuch sounded outside the imperial study.

"The crown prince, the prince of Xingguo, the marquis of Chengyang, and Taining are here." The eunuch's voice was very small, just a gentle announcement.

Xingguo Gong?

Chengyang Hou, Tai Ning Hou, what are they doing here?

Zhu Gaochi didn't know their intentions, and several Shangshu masters didn't know each other's intentions, so they looked at each other and were silent.

The crown prince beckoned: "Please let them in." ”

Soon, Xingguo Gong, Chengyang Hou, and Taining Hou came.

"Weichen, I've seen the prince."

"Weichen, I've seen the prince and disturbed the prince's small court."

Zhu Gaochi had a smile on his face, and looked at Xingguo Gong and said, "Xingguo Gong, you came to the palace today, do you have anything important?" ”

Zhu Gaochi has always been very polite to military generals, and he did not despise others because of different camps.

Xingguo Gong's eyes rolled, with a smile on his face: "Prince, we came today to inquire about the wedding of the grandson." ”

"For the sake of the grandson's wedding, we have brought all the people from Qin Tianjian here."

Xingguo Gong shouted outside: "Lord Li." ”

Soon, the Lord of the Qin Heavenly Prison came in.

He first saluted the prince and the big guys, and then said leisurely: "The wedding of the grandson, this is a major event of the country, I am in charge of the ceremony, the five elements of gossip, divination and calculation." ”

"The day before yesterday, the minister looked at the celestial phenomena, and the grandson was the most suitable marriage match this year, and the one who married must be the queen of the ages."

After saying that, the people of Qin Tianjian immediately knelt down and shouted, "Please also ask the prince to choose the princess as soon as possible." ”
