East Palace.

After the prince returned to the palace, he fell ill, and the east palace was filled with the familiar smell of bitter medicine.

Queen Su stayed by the bed and insisted on feeding the prince medicine herself. After the bowl of hot medicine was fed, Queen Su asked with red eyes: "Imperial Doctor Wan, the prince's illness is not serious!" ”

The handful of the aged Imperial Physician Wan hurriedly replied, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has traveled a long way, and his body is a little tired. You can raise it on the bed for a few days, there is no big problem, please rest assured. ”

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been carefully pampered. This time I went back to Jizhou, I tossed back and forth for half a year, and it was strange not to get sick!

It's just a minor illness, it's nothing.

Empress Su wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and waited for Imperial Doctor Wan and the palace people to retreat before she said softly: "Jun'er, you drink medicine and rest, don't run around in the future." In the past six months, I have been worried about you every day. ”

The weak-faced prince smiled at Queen Su: "Don't worry, Queen Mother, I'm not coming back well." ”

The pacification of Jizhou is too important for the Great Jin.

Originally, the war was raging and the people's hearts were fluctuating, but with the great victory of the imperial court in Jizhou, the people and bandits in the rest of the states and counties who were ready to move were quickly pressed down. The benevolent name of the prince also spread among the people.

If people's hearts are stable, the country will be stable.

Queen Su naturally knew the truth, but she felt sorry for her son, and said with red eyes: "Your body, where can you afford to toss like this." This is the first and last time. After that, you will stay in the palace well. ”

The prince replied in his mouth, and sighed secretly in his heart.

I don't know how many years he can live with this body. It's true that you can't leave the palace again.

However, you can't let go of what you need to do......

"You are out of the filial piety period, and you should marry a wife." Empress Su's voice sounded in her ears, interrupting the prince's thoughts: "I will go to see your father later, and ask your father to give you a marriage." ”

The prince suddenly came back to his senses: "Queen Mother, I have something to say to you." ”

Seeing the prince's solemn face, Queen Su couldn't help but smile: "Okay, you don't have to say anything." Your thoughts, can you still be unclear for your mother? You can rest assured and wait to marry your sweetheart! ”

A trace of pain flashed in the prince's eyes, but his voice was firm and clear: "Mother, I don't marry Cousin Jin." ”

Queen Su: "......"

Queen Su was shocked. She is well aware of her son's temper and never talks nonsense.

However, he has obviously always liked his cousin Su Jin! Why did you suddenly say that you wouldn't marry Su Jin?

"My family, I have other plans." The crown prince looked at Queen Su and said slowly, "Please listen to me." ”

An hour later.

Dizzy, Empress Su walked out of the East Palace. After walking far away, Queen Su couldn't help but glance back, and then reached out and rubbed her forehead.

That's it!

My son is older and has his own opinions and ideas. Moreover, he was indeed more thoughtful.

It's all up to him.

……

The prince was sick, and Mrs. Su was worried about going to the palace to visit her, so she handed over the post to the palace. Soon, a message came out of the palace.

The message sent by Aunt Fu Zi herself, of course, could not be wrong.

Old Mrs. Su suppressed the consternation in her heart and personally sent Fu Zi out of the house.

Fu Zi didn't seem to see the shock of Old Madam Su, and instructed with a smile: "Please take Miss Jin and Miss Huan into the palace tomorrow." ”

Old Madam Su smiled, grabbed Aunt Fuzi's wrist, and asked with a low smile: "Why does Niangniang suddenly want to see Huan'er?" ”

Fu Zi replied without leaking: "The slave maid came to pass the message on the order of the mother, and I don't know anything else." If the old lady has any doubts in her heart, she will know if she enters the palace tomorrow and asks the mother in person. ”

Old Madam Su had no choice but to smile and let go of Fu Zi's hand.

After Fu Zi left, Mrs. Su immediately asked Su Jin's mother and daughter and Su Huan's mother and daughter to be called over.

Yu Shi lost weight, there were many wrinkles at the corners of his eyes on his forehead, and there were a few strands of gray hair on his head.

Su Jin has been sick for half a year, and now she is almost raised, and she is much thinner than before. A pair of eyes are wooden, without brilliance.

Su Huan's mother and daughter are ruddy, and they seem to be in excellent spirits.

Old Madam Su glanced at her, and said lightly: "The queen mother has sent a message, tomorrow you will follow me into the palace to visit His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Su Jin was silent.

Su Huan was pleasantly surprised: "Grandmother, does Niangniang really have to announce that I have entered the palace?" ”

It's sad to say. For Su Jin, entering the palace is commonplace, and it is even more common to see the queen and the crown prince. But Su Huan hasn't been in the palace for two years. The last time I saw the prince's cousin, it was the prince's cousin who came to Su's house to see Su Jin, and she cheekily leaned over to meet the prince's cousin.

Old Madam Su glanced at Su Huan and said unhurriedly: "When you enter the palace tomorrow, you and Jin'er must be cautious in your words and deeds." Don't say what you shouldn't say. ”

Su Huan hurriedly responded. At the thought of being able to enter the palace to see the prince's cousin, Su Huan was full of joy.

Su Jin was still silent.

Old Madam Su frowned and snorted. Su Jin reluctantly opened her mouth to respond: "My granddaughter wrote it down." ”

Old Madam Su glanced at Su Jin coldly: "You remember best." If tomorrow you do anything wrong in the palace, I will settle the account on your mother. ”

Yu's body shrank for a moment.

Su Jin was angry and bitter in her heart, and simply lowered her head.

……

On the second day, Mrs. Su brought her two daughters-in-law and two granddaughters into the palace for an audience.

Queen Su smiled and helped Su Jin and Su Huan up, and asked a few words each, so that the palace maid held two boxes of exquisite palace flowers: "These palace flowers are most suitable for the girl's family." Both of you are the same age, so it's just right to wear it. ”

Su Jin and Su Huan thanked the queen for her grace.

Old Madam Su looked at it with a smile, and her heart became more and more puzzled.

This feeling that something is wrong has been going on since yesterday.

In the past, Queen Su often summoned Su Jin into the palace, and her preference for Su Jin was very obvious. Today, Su Huan was also summoned into the palace. Moreover, Queen Su was more affectionate to Su Huan when she spoke......

It's weird.

Stranger things are yet to come.

Queen Su said with a smile: "Jun'er is recuperating in the East Palace, and she is depressed alone. You go to the East Palace with the main palace and talk to Jun'er. ”

The daughters of the Su family have no reason.

Everyone followed Queen Su to the East Palace and met the prince together.

Old Madam Su's concern for the crown prince is by no means adulterated, and she is sincere: "Your Highness is better now?" ”

The glory and wealth of the Su family are all placed on Queen Su and the crown prince! The prince can't be fine.

The prince replied with a smile: "I have my grandmother worried, I'm fine, I'm just a little tired, just take a rest longer." ”

Then, his eyes fell on Su Jin's face, which was much thinner, and then swept over Su Huan, who was full of concern: "Cousin Jin, cousin Huan, thank you for coming to the palace to see me." ”
