The war in the north is getting closer and closer, and I heard that Cangyi, the king of the northern wolf, has married the queen of the Uzan country, and the two countries have now reached an alliance.

Now it is tantamount to internal and external troubles, and the abdomen and back are affected by the enemy, and the emperor has a headache about it, and his condition is getting worse day by day.

Among the princes, Xie Xuan, the third prince, is the most likely to inherit the crown prince, so with the support of Xu Gelao, he is temporarily in charge of the country and temporarily acts as the court's affairs.

At that time, the emperor was lying on the bed, and Gonggong Li and other concubines and maids were serving on the side.

Xie Xuan and Xu Ge were already waiting outside the door, waiting to be summoned.

Gonggong Li said in the emperor's ear: "Your Majesty, the Third Highness and Elder Xu Ge are here. Now it's outside the door. ”

The emperor opened his eyes quietly, a pair of old eyes were cloudy, and he had long lost his former majesty, like an old man in the twilight.

He opened his mouth and struggled to spit out a few words: "No." "The sound is inaudible.

Since he fell ill, these "filial" princes and "loyal" courtiers under his knees have come to him every day to ask for a meeting outside the palace gate, all to persuade him to canonize the crown prince!

He's not dead yet! He knows that as long as he rests well, he will definitely be able to recuperate!

He is the Son of Heaven! He is the king of Lang Kingdom! How can you be at their mercy!

Seeing that the emperor insisted on refusing to see them, Gonggong Li retreated and said to Xie Xuan and Xu Ge Lao: "The Holy Dragon is in poor health and needs to recuperate for a few days, so His Royal Highness and Pavilion Elder should please go back." No one wants to see the saint now. ”

Xie Xuan had expected this, so he asked, "Has my father's illness improved?" What did the Imperial Doctor say? ”

Gonggong Li replied respectfully: "The imperial doctor said that the emperor is overworked, as long as he has a good life and recuperation, he will definitely recover, and His Royal Highness does not need to worry." ”

Xie Xuan said: "In this case, His Royal Highness must also see his father." "As he spoke, he was going to break in.

Gonggong Li was frightened, and hurriedly stopped: "Your Highness can't, if Your Highness has anything to say, let the servants tell you." ”

Xie Xuan said: "Now that the situation between the DPRK and China is unstable, my father is still unwilling to appoint the crown prince, what do you mean?" Now the Northern Wolf King has sent troops to attack the border of our Lang country three times and twice, and the situation is turbulent, and His Royal Highness is really worried about the stability of Lang country! ”

As soon as the words ended, the emperor's heavy coughing sound was heard in the room.

Gonggong Li looked frightened, and said in a slightly trembling voice: "The matter of canonization, the Holy Lord will make a decision, His Royal Highness still don't interfere, if you provoke the anger of the Holy Longyan, I am afraid that it will ......."

"Afraid of what?" Xie Xuan said coldly: "All this His Highness has done is for the people of Lang Country!" ”

Li Gonggong said: "If Your Highness insists on this, I am only afraid of provoking criticism from others, I hope Your Highness will think twice......"

Hearing this, Xie Xuan stopped.

Seeing this, Elder Xu Ge stepped forward to comfort: "The saint has been worrying and worrying recently, which is really not conducive to the health of the dragon's body, but the saint doesn't have to worry, above the court, there are currently three highnesses in charge of the government, everything is stable, and the saint only needs to recuperate well in order to recover as soon as possible." ”

Gonggong Li bowed his head and said: "With Elder Xu Ge and His Royal Highness sharing the worries of the Holy One, the Holy One will definitely recover as soon as possible." ”

After sending Xie Xuan and Xu Ge away, Gonggong Li turned around and went into the house to serve the emperor.

The emperor heard the words outside the door clearly, and he knew that the matter of canonizing the crown prince could not be delayed any longer.

With a sigh, he looked at Gonggong Li beside him and said, "Go, take the holy decree for me......"

In the past few days, Shangguan Rong has been recuperating in the Yuwang Mansion due to an arrow wound.

In the early dynasty, Xu Ge said: "The emperor is overly worried, all because there are northern werewolves in the north, Xiao Yan, as the king of Langguo, is invincible, and he should share his worries for the saints. ”

As soon as Elder Xu Ge mentioned this, the day of the expedition was directly shortened by three days.

Xiao Yan did not resist the decree and disrespect, he is the god of war that everyone in Lang Kingdom wants, where he needs to fight and shed blood, he has the obligation to go.

Yuwang Mansion, Shangguan Rong has recovered quickly from her injuries under Shu Wan's careful care in the past few days, but she still has to recuperate for half a month to completely heal.

On this day, Shu Wan stepped into the house with the medicine she had boiled with her own hands, and the room was silent for a while.

Until Shangguan Rong looked at her and said, "Xiao Yan is going to go on an expedition." ”

"When?" Shu Wan paused.

"Tomorrow." Shangguan Rong said.

Shu Wan's heart tightened: "How can it be so fast?" Aren't there three days left? ”

Seeing the loss in her eyes, Shangguan Rong's expression was a little faintly lonely, and he said to her carefully: "This expedition, the battle situation is dangerous, Xiao Yan cares about my injuries and let me recuperate in the mansion, and when my injuries heal, there will be no northern border to meet him." ”

Seeing that she never spoke, Shangguan Rong paused, and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, Xiao Yan is an invincible god of war, and this expedition is only suppressed, no matter how fierce the Northern Werewolf is, it is just a defeated general, and it can't set off much storm." ”

Shu Wan said: "How long will it take to come back on this expedition?" ”

Shangguan Rong thought for a while and said, "It's three months as fast, and half a year as short." ”

Shu Wan staggered and took a few steps back.

Shangguan Rong saw that her expression was wrong, so she said in a low voice: "If you can't rest assured, you can send him off tomorrow." ”

Shu Wan didn't say anything, just put down the medicine bowl and walked out of the room a little distracted.

Unexpectedly, he was going to go on an expedition tomorrow, and if she left here, she would never see him again, and when she thought of this, her heart hurt for no reason.

Should I go to loosen him tomorrow?

What should she say to him when she sees him?

This night, pay attention to sleeplessness.

Shu Wan and Yi slept on the bed, even though she had been tormented by the poison an hour ago, she still couldn't sleep.

As everyone knows, outside the door, a figure stood under a peach tree and had been standing silently for a long time.

Qingfeng couldn't help but stepped forward and said, "Why don't you go and see her?" Maybe the princess hasn't rested yet. ”

Xiao Yan just stared at the closed door fixedly, and said, "It's late, there is no light in her room, presumably she has already fallen asleep, so there is no need to disturb her." ”

Qingfeng said: "But the prince is going to go on an expedition tomorrow, and this time, the court only allocated three thousand elites to the prince, and he doesn't want the prince to come back alive at all!" Didn't the prince come here just to take another look at the princess? ”

Qingfeng said again: "I'm afraid that the prince also knows that this expedition may be more auspicious, so the prince refuses to let the Hou Ye go with you, the prince has good intentions, if the princess knows this, she will definitely not choose the little Hou Ye!" ”

Xiao Yan took a deep breath, the position of his heart was a little stuffy, and he said in a low voice: "No matter who she chooses, as long as she is happy, this king will not interfere with her." ”

Seeing that it was getting late, Xiao Yan turned around and said to Qingfeng: "Let's go, I will go on the expedition early tomorrow morning." He was about to leave.

Suddenly, there was a "squeak" sound of the door opening behind him.

Xiao Yan paused, and before he could turn back, he heard Shu Wan calling him.

"Ayan."
