Great Qi Dynasty, the capital Weiyang Palace.

The pouring rain poured down on the eaves of the pavilions of the temples everywhere.

In the Chengqing Palace, three steps and a lamp, five steps and a candlestick, the candlelight will reflect the whole temple clearly.

The palace maids and eunuchs on duty have already changed the candles twice tonight, but His Majesty the Emperor, who sits on top of His Majesty Dan, has no intention of resting at all.

And under His Majesty Dan, two female officials were kneeling on the ground and chanting the song,

"Hubu Shangshu Xu Yu's Fu Wei Qi: Your Majesty's Holy Body Spring and Autumn Period, has reached the age of standing, but since Your Majesty succeeded to the throne for 14 years, the concubines of the harem have not yet had any heirs born, for the sake of the Great Qi Jiangshan Society, the minister implores His Majesty to follow the story of the previous dynasty and choose the family to enter the palace to raise, so as to ensure the stability of the Great Qi Guozuo...."

"Zhang Jinglin, the secretary of the ministry, Fu Wei played: Your Majesty has been in the extreme for 14 years now, and the ministers are incompetent, unable to frame the monarch and assist the country, and share the worries of the monarch's father, so that Your Majesty has all the time to be busy with state affairs all day long, so that there is nothing to do for many years, and there has been no prince in the country for 14 years.

Now that the people's feelings are turbulent, and the people in the market are discussing the affairs of the palace in vain, the ministers think that at this time, His Majesty should personally select the talented and virtuous family to succeed the emperor, so as to calm the people's feelings......."

"The Ministry of Industry Shangshu Wang Xi Yao Fu only played: Ministers look up to the annals, since ancient times, although the emperor is the supreme, but there is no time to be alone. Above the court, there are officials of various departments performing official affairs, and in the deep palace, there are eunuchs and attendants around the left and right, living and sleeping, and there are palace attendants serving before and after.

However, all these things are outsiders in His Majesty's words, and the only person close to him is the crown prince's heir.

During the fourteenth year of the Great Qi Dynasty, the position of the emperor's heir was vacant, and His Majesty had no close people to serve his knees for many years, for the sake of the Great Qi country, for His Majesty's plan, and the ministers wished that His Majesty would choose the son of the clan to make up for the lack of the emperor's heir....."

"Liu Wenqi, the priest of the country's sacrificial wine: The common feelings of the ministers are nothing more than the love of father and son, and the happiness of people is nothing more than the joy of father and son. Your Majesty may be a sage, but so should his nature..."

"Qintian Supervisor Zheng Li Zeqing Qi ......"

"Liu Yanshan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites......"

“..........”

The letter is written with different words and different handwriting, but what is said is the same thing, please choose your majesty to be the heir of the emperor.

There are many such recitals, a thick stack, two female officials one handed, one read, both of them hung their heads the whole time, and they didn't even dare to lift their eyelids, they really didn't dare to look at His Majesty who was sitting on top of His Majesty.

His Majesty the Emperor, who was sitting on top of His Majesty Dan, had a cold expression, dressed in a dark color regular clothes, the red pen in his hand was non-stop, he was pursing his lips with his eyes pursed, and he lowered his head to deal with a letter on the desk.

There were very few recitals in front of him, only a few copies, which were pitiful compared to those who persuaded him to establish an heir, but he took them extremely seriously, because these were real state affairs.

As for the following recitals that were recited by the female officer, he ignored them, and it was only when he heard the recitals about the love between father and son that a different meaning flashed in his eyes.

Father-son affection....

Just four words but stumbled two generations of emperors of the Great Qi, his late father wanted to discuss the relationship between father and son with him, and he, the emperor who performed the world, also wanted to discuss the relationship between father and son with others.

But such a simple thing cannot be done in any way.

Who made her ...... It's a daughter.

She hid this identity for 30 years, and on the day she was born, her father, who had been childless for many years, announced that it was the emperor who had descended, and made him the crown prince, in order to calm the hearts of the government and the opposition.

originally planned to wait for the birth of a prince in the future, and then abolish the old and create a new one, and restore her daughter's body.

But nothing has been said since then.

Since then, she, who was supposed to be a princess, has become the crown prince.

But a fake is a fake after all, no matter how similar she is, no matter how seamless she is, it can't hide the fact that her daughter is a woman.

How can she, a woman, and the group of women in the harem have a child?

In the 14 years since he ascended the throne, he has never given birth to a son and a half daughter, during which there have been constant turmoil, and some people have talked about this matter from time to time, and this time the turmoil is bigger than ever.

Almost all the officials of the court and the central government participated in the matter of the succession and succession.

It was still a day like this, a day when she was sick and the man was seriously ill in bed.

"Squeak..."

In the corner of the main hall, the medicine pot sitting on the stove made a squeaky sound, and a wisp of white gas continued to bubble out along the small eyes on the lid of the pot, exuding a bitter medicinal smell.

The palace maid, who was silently kneeling in front of the fire, stood up, put down the fan in her hand, and picked up a towel from the desk next to her.

The rain outside was getting heavier.

The sound of the rain was mixed with other sounds, and it seemed that someone was running in the rain.

The sound is getting closer and closer, and it is indeed someone running in the rain, stumbling and running wildly in this most well-behaved Miyagi Ouchi.

"Stomp, stomp...."

The sound of boots stepping on the water can be imagined just by listening to the splashing scene.

"Bang..."

The door of the Chengqing Hall was pushed open, and a eunuch broke in, the eunuch's clothes had already been soaked by the rain, and his body was wet, and the water dripped down the hem of the robe on the floor of the main hall.

Then, he fell to his knees with a thud, and his whole body trembling on the ground, and immediately, he raised his head tremblingly, and shouted with a crying voice: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the imperial doctors have no skills to return to the sky, Gonggong Lin he.." He went...."

"Click!"

A bolt of lightning pierced the night sky, and the sound of thunder seemed to ring in the ears of everyone in the temple.

The palace maid who had just picked up the medicine pot trembled, and the casserole filled with medicinal soup shattered to the ground, and the brown medicinal soup poured to the ground, and the medicinal juice splashed far away.

The two female officers who were chanting and chanting were silent.

And His Majesty the Emperor, who was sitting high above His Majesty Dan, slammed the red pen in his hand, and the note that was being reviewed was suddenly stained with a touch of cinnabar, and the red was bright.

There was no sound in the entire hall for a while, only the sound of rain crackling outside, and the rest was the sound of falling to knees.

Gong E, who had served the medicine stove before, fell to her knees, and under her knees was the still hot medicinal soup and the broken casserole fragments, but she ignored it.

And the two kneeling female officers were already lying on their stomachs.

After a long time, His Majesty the Emperor above His Majesty finally spoke, "Proposed edict, Lin Companion has been serving for many years, and he has been accomplished in the court, and he will be buried with the rites of a prince..."

With that, she said no more, pursed her lips, and looked at the open door of the temple to see the rain under the night.

It's okay to go......

It's okay to go......

She thought to herself that if he was gone, the last person in the world who knew my secret would be gone.

After staring quietly at the rain curtain for a while, she turned her gaze back, held the red pen steadily, and continued to criticize the song.

"Click, click...."

Drop by drop of red fell on the song, and soon, the red on the song became more and more, mixed with the cinnabar just now, and connected into a large piece.

And the content of the recital, in her eyes, became extremely blurred.

"Bang!"

Hearing this sound, all the eunuchs and maids in the palace raised their heads, and then they were horrified to see that the emperor sitting on His Majesty Dan actually fell, and for a while, everyone panicked, "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! ”
