The emperor looked at the empress for a while, and the empress seemed to feel something and woke up.

She hurriedly straightened up her appearance and stood up, and said in surprise: "Your Majesty, you are finally awake." ”

The emperor smiled, looked at the dark circles under the queen's eyes, nodded, and struggled to sit up, "How long have I been asleep?" ”

The queen stretched out her hand to help him, "Your Majesty has been asleep for two days and nights. ”

"You've been taking care of me?"

The queen said: "The concubine is not worried about others taking care of her, after all, there was Yu Gonggong in the past, he is a proper person, the concubine is not worried that he will not take good care of Your Majesty, now that he is not there, the concubine is not at ease, so she can only do it herself." ”

The Emperor shook her hand, "Thank you for your hard work." ”

The queen smiled, "Your Majesty is fine." ”

She asked, "Your Majesty drink saliva first?" The imperial dining room has always prepared medicinal food, and the concubine ordered someone to bring it. ”

The Emperor nodded.

After Yan Echo entered the inner hall, the emperor had something to say to him, so he said to the queen: "Queen, you are also tired, go and rest, I don't need you to guard here, I will talk to the prince." ”

Yan Lin was extremely panicked, "When my father-in-law said that we all miss our father." ”

The emperor knew that his son was capable, and with Yan echoing, the court situation was chaotic, so he said: "I heard your mother say that you haven't closed your eyes for two days?" Is it for the sake of Hebei? ”

Yan Huisheng stepped forward and patted the emperor on the back, although his face was light, he still said gently: "Father, take care of the dragon body, the matter has come to this, no matter how angry you are, you are only angry with yourself, or calm down, the idea is." ”

Yan echoed his head, "The matter revealed by the precious concubine is too big, and it is really difficult for the retainers to feel at ease, and they are thinking about it." ”

The servants who were waiting were very discerning, and they all retreated to the door, and only the emperor and Yan echo were left in the hall.

The emperor asked Yan Huisheng: "Can the court be peaceful in the past two days?" ”

The imperial doctor was guarding the side hall, and he came the fastest, and after checking the emperor's pulse, he breathed a sigh of relief and advised the emperor, "Your Majesty, you have been angry and hurt your heart this time, although there is no major problem now, you have to take care of it carefully." ”

Father-in-law nodded.

The emperor received Yan Echo's concern, his heart was a little touched, nodded, gradually stabilized his mind, stopped coughing, and asked him, "Who is outside?" ”

The father-in-law shook his head, "Your Majesty didn't say that you wanted to see your highnesses, only passed on to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." ”

The imperial doctor hesitated, "This minister can't say it well, as long as Your Majesty doesn't make a big fuss, he should be able to raise faster." The words fell, and he persuaded, "In the end, Your Majesty must love the dragon body and be calm, otherwise it will hurt the dragon body." ”

Yan echo replied: "It's the second brother, the fourth brother and a group of brothers and sisters." ”

Yan Lin was jealous in his heart, and grabbed his father-in-law, "What about us?" Father can see us? ”

Yan Echo's face was obviously tired, but fortunately, he was young, and the dark circles under his eyes were not as heavy as the queen. But this is enough for the emperor to see that the queen is not lying, and his son is indeed tired in the past two days.

The emperor knew that he was at a loss, if it weren't for his favor in Zhang Ping and his pampering of the precious concubine, he would not have caused this point now, this internal worry is incomprehensible, in case of external troubles again, he is afraid that he will become a sinner for thousands of years.

The emperor remembered the testimony that Yan Huisheng showed her about the precious concubine, his face sank, and he said to the empress, "Let the prince come to see me." ”

When the emperor heard this, he asked, "How long do I need to raise it?" ”

The emperor nodded, waved his hand, and asked the imperial doctor to retreat.

His heart was turbulent, and he couldn't calm down for a while, and he coughed violently.

Yan echo came quickly, not only he came, the second prince Yan Lin heard that the emperor was awake, and he didn't need to be summoned, so he hurriedly entered the palace, and there were other princes and princesses, who got the news, and they all came to the Palace of Nourishing Hearts.

Yan Echo shook his head, "Not yet, waiting for your father to wake up, you need to discuss carefully, after all, the sons don't know how many soldiers and horses General Pingxi has privately, and he doesn't dare to make a decision easily, and he still needs his father to decide." ”

No wonder he was in a hurry, he hadn't seen the emperor in many days.

The queen nodded and sent someone to the East Palace to deliver the message.

Yan Lin and Yan Echo arrived almost at the same time, he glanced at Yan Echo and arched his hand, "Prince." ”

Yan Hui nodded, "Father is in poor health, and the courtiers are very worried, but it is peaceful, and Father can rest assured." ”

Hearing the movement outside, a father-in-law came out, glanced at the people who came, and bowed his hand to Yan Echo, "His Royal Highness the Prince, are you here?" Your Majesty, please come in. ”

The emperor's face was a little ugly, "I don't know. Over the years, I underestimated Zhang Ping's dog and was fooled by him. ”

The emperor didn't seem to have any appetite, and after eating a small half bowl of porridge, he shook his head and stopped eating, and asked the queen, "Where is the prince?" ”

Yan Echo nodded, "Second brother." ”

The people in the imperial dining room quickly brought medicinal food, and the queen waited for the emperor to eat it.

Yan Echo didn't answer this.

"Can you figure it out?" The emperor asked.

The queen was indeed tired, the emperor woke up, summoned her son as soon as possible, and she naturally didn't have to guard the emperor, so she nodded and retreated.

The queen sighed, "The prince has been very busy and tired for the past two days, since His Majesty was unconscious, the prince has not closed his eyes for two days, and the prince came over once in the morning, and when he saw that His Majesty was not awake, he went to be busy again." ”

The queen personally poured water for the emperor, fed him to drink, and ordered someone to go to the imperial dining room immediately, and then quickly passed on the imperial doctor.

Yan Echo nodded and entered the Heart Cultivation Palace.

The emperor nodded, didn't say anything, and said to him: "Regarding Jibei, you should have a charter in your heart, and you can talk to me about your thoughts." ”

Yan replied: "Erchen has sent a secret guard to northern Hebei to investigate the details of General Pingxi's mansion, and the news that the precious concubine has been sent to the prison has been blocked. However, there are many people in Beijing, and I am afraid that there are also Zhang Ping's people in the court, and the ministers are not sure how long the news of the precious concubine's exposure can be sealed. Therefore, for the Pingxi General's Mansion, it is impossible to make a long-term plan, so it can only be fast. In addition to the secret guard being sent to find out the news, Erchen planned to send another person to the officialdom in northern Hebei, and then ordered the soldiers and horses of the Protectorate Mansion to sneak into northern Hebei quietly to prevent Zhang Ping from rebelling and driving straight into the capital to fight the capital without preparation. If you can not get rid of the bloodless blade, it is best to remove Zhang Ping, if you can't remove the soldier without blood, you can only use the army. ”

The emperor said: "Since Zhang Ping had ambitions as early as ten years ago, the officialdom in northern Hebei should have been controlled by him long ago. If you send someone to the officialdom of northern Hebei, I am afraid that it will be a sheep into the mouth of a tiger. ”

"Then we have to go." Yan echoed: "It is the big exam this year, and now the list has come out, and then I will wait for my father's palace test, after my father confers the official, a new batch of officials will naturally be assigned to various places, and it is normal for there to be officials in the capital in northern Hebei." ”

"Who to send? Have you chosen someone? "How does the emperor ponder, the current officials in the court are useless, no one can shoulder the heavy responsibility of northern Hebei, the new batch of candidates, the top-notch people, have not experienced training, only one Zhou Gu, the East Palace has been studying for many years, is it possible to send Zhou Gu to go?
