It hasn't been long. However, when he thought about it at the moment, it seemed to be very distant, as if he had a trance like another world.

"You come in." She called him.

He woke up, and in her gaze, stepped in, and was about to ask where she had been last night, but she interrupted.

"I was bad last night and didn't sleep all night, maybe I'm blaming you again. It was my fault. It won't be like this in the future. ”

She stood up to make amends.

Pei Xiaoyuan paused for a moment and smiled: "It's okay." It's fine if you're okay. ”

"I'm fine." She said again.

"Then you have a good rest. If there is no other command here, I will go and restore my life first. Your Majesty must have been waiting anxiously. ”

He hesitated and said. After all, he still didn't ask her what the purpose of going to Yuwenzhi to enter the theater in the morning was.

"I've got a message from Aye," she said, "and I have something else to say to you." It's not long, it's just a few sentences, and it won't delay you for long. ”

Pei Xiaoyuan was silent, only to hear her say: "I don't know what my Aya said about me in front of you before, here I want you to know that you are the person I trust the most besides my grandfather." Indeed, I should be pleased with you. It's not something that can't be said. ”

"But, that's all. If Pei Langjun is such a good person, who wouldn't like it? ”

She then continued, staring at Pei Xiaoyuan, who was looking up at her in surprise because of her first half of the sentence, and the two of them met each other.

"You don't have to respond, just listen to me." She saw his gaze move and smiled slightly.

"So you don't have to have any burden on this, let alone what I'm saying. I'll advise him when I go back, and don't trouble you with me again. Don't worry, he'll listen to me. ”

"In addition, since I met you in Ganliang, you have helped me a lot. I am extremely grateful to you. I also know that you have something to do, and the road is long, as a due return, in the future, if there is a need for me, please do not see me, just talk to me. I may have little ability, but I will do my best to help. ”

"I'm done. Let's go into the palace first and see my Aya. Maybe I was last night, and something was not good. Pei Langjun, you have been busy all night, you should be tired, go and rest, I'll be there, I'll relay it for you, you don't have to go out of your way to return to your life. ”

Su Yu bowed to Pei Xiaoyuan, who was stunned, and then lowered his eyes, passed in front of him, and walked out quickly.

Chapter 62

On the way to the palace in a hurry, Su Yu's mind was also repeatedly reminding of the scene of talking to Yu Wenzhi this morning.

"The surname Pei is not as simple as you think." This is a phrase he had said when he met by chance. She didn't care about it at the time, but when she looked at it at the moment, just from this sentence, Yu Wenzhi may not be wrong.

Probably because he has always wanted to seek revenge, he knows more about the Pei family than Chengping. According to Yu Wenzhi, the person behind Chen Sida and Feng Zhenping that day was Liu Ceye. Now they are all in high positions with the Gong of the Dragon, and the Liu family and the Feng family have also become the backstage of the crown prince and King Kang respectively.

"It's disrespectful, and I don't know what the sage thinks, why didn't he take advantage of the great opportunity of Prince Jingsheng's rebellion to wipe out the Pei family in one fell swoop and eliminate future troubles. Pei Ji is okay, seventy or eighty, and he doesn't have a few years to live, but the surname Pei is different. Even if there is nothing to do now, if the saint is gone one day, no matter which of the two successes to the throne, in my opinion, the surname Pei will not want to have a good life. ”

"The enmity of blood relatives is not shared. This is an unsolvable problem. Even if the surname Pei recognizes it, can Liu Ceye and Feng Zhenping put their minds at ease? If it was me, it was the other way around. Instead of waiting for others to fall the knife first, it is better to pull out the knife yourself, don't care if it doesn't happen, and kill it first. ”

"The surname Pei is not a stupid person, how can he not even know this. Therefore I advise thee to stay away from him, lest thou bring trouble upon thyself. ”

When Yu Wenzhi said these words, his tone was relaxed, and even a little schadenfreude. However, Su Yu was secretly frightened. This feeling continued until she entered the palace, and the little palace supervisor told her that the old grandfather was waiting for her.

The old grandfather is the honorific title of Zhao Zhongfang in the palace, Su Yu heard the words and gathered his thoughts, and hurriedly rushed to Ziyun Palace with the little palace eunuch, only to reach the palace steps, he saw Zhao Zhongfang dragging his stump leg and walking anxiously in the Taoist hall behind the gate, kept looking outside, saw her figure appear, put aside a little palace eunuch who wanted to come up to support him, and hurriedly walked towards Su Yu.

Su Yu hurried into the temple. Zhao Zhongfang ordered the palace eunuch to retreat, and led her to the back, hearing her ask about the emperor's condition, she whispered with a sad face: "After the princess left the palace last night, His Majesty's illness was committed again, and the old slave called the imperial doctor to come, and also took medicine, and finally got a little better, but he didn't sleep all night, and he didn't listen to any persuasion, so he opened his eyes and waited for the princess's news. The old slave is easy to talk about and persuade for the time being. Princess, go and see. ”

Su Yu was worried when she heard this, and she was even more remorseful.

If it weren't for the fact that she didn't hold back for a while last night, broke into the palace and asked those words, which caused the incident, Aya wouldn't have become ill again.

She hurriedly walked to the outer hall, and saw five or six imperial doctors gathered together, discussing the medicine in a low voice, and suddenly saw Zhao Zhongfang leading the little court painter in, and they all looked at it, showing puzzled expressions.

Su Yu didn't care about these anymore, passed past everyone, lifted the crystal curtain, and went straight into the house.

This is the emperor's dormitory.

The sky is already bright outside, and the inside of the house is still closed on all sides, and there is no light in the sky, only lit by candles, full of the smell of bitter medicine, and there is no one inside, only the emperor. He was wearing a middle coat, lying on a couch in the innermost part, with a medicine bag on his forehead, his eyes closed, and the person did not move, only a few slight □□ sounds.

In Su Yu's childhood memories, her Aya is as majestic as a god and a tough man. She had never seen him so weak and powerless, and ran to the couch to ask him how he was. I saw that the emperor opened his eyes with difficulty, saw that it was her, and immediately stopped □□, but his expression seemed to be more painful than Fang Cai.

Su Yu was extremely distressed for a while, and hurriedly asked, "Aye, how are you?" Where do you hurt? Is it the chest? ”

She knew that the emperor's old wounds were left in the chest, which were left by arrows.

"It's not just there...... The whole body hurts...... "The emperor closed his eyes and hummed.

Su Yu thought that when she fell when she was a child, she always had to cry desperately, as if the louder she cried, the more the pain would be reduced. Hurriedly said: "Aye, if you hurt, hum it, don't bear it." After speaking, he turned his head and was about to call the imperial doctor, but he heard the emperor say weakly: "Aye, don't see them...... When you see it, you get angry...... If you can cure the disease, it will be cured a long time ago, and it will take until now, so that Aya will stay up half-dead all day......"

Su Yu was so excited by these words that Dengshi's eyes turned red, and he persuaded: "Just now Zhao Bandang said that Aya wants to take the pill again." Aye, bear with me. Dan pills really can't be eaten anymore. No matter how good the medicine of the imperial doctors is, you must cooperate with Aye, and be more patient. Aye, you have always been like this, you don't see when you are sick, you just drag it, and now you have damaged your body, and you blame the doctor for being useless. Aye, if you have a bad ......"

She couldn't hold back any longer, crystal tears burst out of her eyes, and for a moment, afraid of being seen, she hurriedly lowered her head and wiped her tears.

I didn't want to cry at such a time, but the tears were wiped more and more, and suddenly at this time, I heard the emperor sigh twice: "Aya seems to be better?" It doesn't hurt that much......"

She raised her eyes and saw that the emperor had opened his eyes and was looking at her, and behold, the pain on his face was indeed much lighter.

"Is it really better?" Su Yu is still not at ease.

Dr. Hu is proficient in acupuncture and can use acupuncture to relieve some pain. If the pain is tolerable and she is supervising, Aya should be able to slowly quit the habit of using pills to relieve pain as soon as she develops.

"Imperial Doctor Hu is just outside, I'll call him! Give Aya another look—" After speaking, he wiped his eyes, turned and hurried out.

"No, no, no!"

When the emperor heard this, his face changed slightly, and he sat up, leaning over and raising his hand to stop the rain.

Su Yu was dragged by the emperor, stopped and turned his head to look. I saw that the emperor took off the medicine bag on his forehead, shook it off, and his own people also sat up, and said with a smile: "Aya really doesn't hurt anymore!" All of you! No need to call Dr. Hu! ”

In the blink of an eye, he recovered from his dying appearance. Su Yu was relieved, but he couldn't help but look at it a few more times, only to see that the emperor suddenly frowned again, grabbed the edge of the couch, and slowly lay down, and said: "It seems that I am still a little dizzy...... Sister-in-law, help Aya......"

At this moment, Su Yu's heart was already bright, and he was so angry that he wiped away the tears that were still on his face, and said angrily: "Aya, what are you doing? Do you think you're only three years old? ”

It was true that the emperor was unwell last night, and he tossed all night before he came back. In the morning, I learned that my daughter had returned safely, and I was relieved, thinking about what she questioned last night, but I was quite troubled, afraid that she would not give up when she came back, so I pretended to be sick and wanted to get through the trick.

At this moment, seeing that he was recognized, his old face was hot, fortunately, there was only dim light in this hall, and his daughter couldn't see clearly, so he forced himself to calm down: "You run away from anyone when you're angry, how can Aya put his mind at ease?" It hurt all night last night, where is the fraud? I don't believe you, ask your good companion to go! ”

Su Yu looked at the emperor in front of him, his clothes were wrinkled, his hair and beard were unkempt, how could he still have the majesty of an emperor? In addition to being annoyed, I felt that he was a little pitiful, and after thinking about it, I finally endured my anger and decided not to worry about him, and said with a stiff face: "Just now Zhao Bandang said that you didn't take the medicine." ”

The emperor noticed that his daughter's tone had eased, and hurriedly said, "Let's eat." Bring it in. ”

Suyu walked out. Zhao Zhongfang was waiting outside the fine house, and when he heard Su Yu say that the emperor was in good trouble and was going to take medicine, he breathed a sigh of relief, so he asked the imperial doctors to go back, and sent the medicine that had been warm.

The rain was brought in, and the emperor drank it. Zhao Zhongfang asked the palace eunuch to bring a food table again, and when the palace eunuch retreated, he said with a smile: "The princess's breakfast should be useless, right?" Just accompany Your Majesty to have some snacks. ”

There is not much food on the table, but it is clean and delicious, two kinds of porridge, one sweet and one salty, sweet is almond porridge, salty is fish and sheep porridge, and there are two plates of pastries, several kinds of fresh vegetables and fruits. It's all the things that Su Yu liked to eat in Dingwang's Mansion when he was a child.

The emperor got up and sat down in front of the dining table, but he didn't move, just looked at the rain.

She hesitated, and in the expectant gaze of Zhao Zhongfang on the side, she finally walked over slowly and sat down with her.

Zhao Zhongfang came up to serve. The father and daughter did not speak, and ate this breakfast that was shared again after many years. After the meal, rinsed his mouth, withdrew the case, walked away, extinguished the candles, put up the curtains one by one, and then opened the window for ventilation.

Zhao Zhongfang came over with a comb mirror at this time and combed his hair for the emperor.

Su Yu watched quietly from the side. The emperor sat on the couch, his eyes half-drooping.

After all, he is half a hundred years old, it should be because he tossed all night last night, and at this moment his face showed a faint tiredness. Looking, looking, she somehow walked up and motioned for Zhao Zhongfang to hand over the comb.

Zhao Zhongfang was stunned at first, but soon understood, rejoiced, and hurriedly presented the rhino comb.

Su Yu gently climbed onto the couch, knelt beside the emperor, and combed his hair.

In the past, she often combed her hair, and Grandpa always praised her for her dexterity. At this moment, like combing her father's hair, she broke up the emperor's hair, slowly combed it through, and then closed the knots, only to find that the hair was thin, almost too much hairpin.

This situation reminded her of when she was a child, Aya was working in the study, she often sat on Aye's lap and asked him to talk to her, but he ignored it, she pulled his beard, he was in pain, and he was helpless.

At that time, I remember that her aya hair was thick, black and shiny. She never thought that one day, he would become such a sparse old man in front of her.

The morning sun enters the room, and the cool morning breeze blows a curtain nearby. There was silence in the ashram, except for a wisp of light smoke rising from the lid of a golden incense burner in the corner.

The emperor closed his eyelids slightly, motionless.

Su Yu put the combing movement more gently, and finally put the comb, picked up the hosta, pinched the hairpin with dexterous fingers, and gently inserted it into the bun.

After combing his hair, the emperor still did not move, as if he was sitting, and fell asleep like this.

Although it was summer, it was early in the morning after all, and Su Yu was afraid that the emperor would be cold, so he was about to get out of bed to get the quilt, when there was a quiet footstep outside and Zhao Zhongfang's low voice.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Taifu Liuxiang, and Wei Juren, the regular attendant of the loose cavalry, came to ask for a meeting. The crown prince's confinement period expired, thank your majesty. ”

After a pause, she lowered her eyes, and was about to get up in a hurry, when suddenly her hand was heavy, and she was unexpectedly held by a big hand with a protruding bone joint, preventing her from leaving.

She raised her eyes and saw that the emperor slowly opened his eyes, and the light in his eyes shimmered, and he still looked half sleepy.

"Tell them to wait."

The emperor said a word, then turned to the rain, and his gaze turned to mildness.

"You don't have to leave. Go out with Aye, and hear what they have to say. The Emperor said.

Su Yu silently helped the emperor to get up from the couch, took his coat, served and put it on, and the emperor returned to the majestic appearance of being so high that people dare not look at him directly. She followed, and the Emperor took her seat, while she hid behind the screen by the crystal curtain behind him.

When the crown prince Li Mao entered the palace accompanied by his uncle Liu Ceye and his brother-in-law Wei Juren, as soon as he saw the emperor, he ran over quickly, almost pounced, knelt at the feet of the emperor, kowtowed hard, and when the salute was completed, he raised his face, he burst into tears, choked up and said that in those days ago, he obeyed the emperor's orders, thought about it behind closed doors, and every time he thought of the emperor Aye's cultivation of him, and he lived up to a lot, he was heartbroken, regretted not at the beginning, and in the future, he would carefully follow the teachings, and then not let the emperor Aya down.

The emperor's face was discerning, and he only nodded. Liu Ceye secretly observed, and at this time he also answered, as usual, he first scolded himself for not fulfilling his duties as a prince, and noticed that the emperor gradually showed impatience, knowing that his body had deteriorated in recent years, and he often had no patience to listen to his subordinates' long speeches in front of him.

"I know. What else? ”

Sure enough, a moment later, he was interrupted by the emperor. He stopped, kowtowed and thanked him, and then opened his mouth again to talk about business, Dao Wei Juren has a daughter, and the elders in the family have not seen Pei Xiaoyuan somewhere, and when he came back, he kept talking about his young talent, and he must ask Wei Juren to pay attention to this matter and marry his children.

Because the old man never forgot it, Wei Juren was helpless and didn't dare to be disobedient, so he went to the minister here and asked if it was feasible. Pei Jiazi is one of the best young men in a hundred, and the minister naturally has nothing to say, if he can get married, it will also be a good story. But thinking that His Majesty valued this son, in case he had other intentions for his marriage, Wei Juren did not dare to make his own decisions, so he took advantage of today's opportunity to ask His Majesty to see His Majesty and beg His Majesty to show him. ”

"If this matter can be decided by His Majesty, or if it is given to marriage, then the minister's family is even more fortunate to have three lives, and I am grateful!" At this time, Wei Juren kowtowed and said solemnly.

There was silence in the hall.

It was not the prince's turn to speak, he just listened. Wei Juren was full of anticipation. Liu Ceye lowered his eyes and did not move, for a long time, he had not heard the emperor speak, and finally became a little uneasy, quietly raised his eyes, and saw the emperor's always cold face, and finally a smile appeared.

"The surname of the Wei family is in Guanzhong, and the Pei family is a famous family in the east of the river, if I can form an in-law, why can't I? You can do this yourself, why bother asking me? If it is done, how difficult is it to give marriage. ”

The emperor's reply was ambiguous, which made Liu Ceye feel a little disappointed, but in any case, it was not a slap in the face. This made him breathe a sigh of relief again. Busy with Wei Juren said some words of thanks, seeing that the emperor's face was tired, and his goal was almost achieved, he said goodbye.

The crown prince walked at the end, waited to come out, hesitated, turned around, knelt respectfully towards the emperor, kowtowed, and choked up: "My son's experience, if he is reborn, thank you Aya for giving your son this opportunity again." And ......"

He wanted to say, "And my aunt also wants to accompany her son to greet Your Majesty", but suddenly thought that the Koyanagi clan was hated by the emperor for some reason, and she was the empress, and she had not seen the emperor for more than ten years. Although there is no explicit prohibition, everyone in the palace knows that this Purple Cloud Palace is a forbidden place that she cannot set foot in, knowing that if she says this, not only will she not be able to win favor for herself in front of the emperor, but she will be disgusted and swallowed back immediately.

"My son must learn a lesson, and he won't disappoint Aya again!" After he finished speaking, he bowed his head and withdrew.

And all the people of the temple went. The emperor turned his head and watched his daughter slowly turn out from behind the curtain.

He thought about what Liu Ceye said.

What is the purpose of Liu and Wei, he naturally knows at a glance, but it involves the kid of the Pei family, the emperor's heart can't help but be troubled again, afraid that his daughter won't be able to figure it out again, and is thinking about how to explain it to her, but when he saw her walk in front of him, he said softly: "Aya, I just forgot to say, I won't live in Yongning Mansion from today on." You can arrange a place for me temporarily, anywhere. It is also available in the palace. ”

The emperor was stunned, but he didn't expect that she ran out last night, and when she came back, she seemed to be a different person, and she didn't have time to think about the reason for it for a while, so she breathed a sigh of relief for the time being, and said busily: "This is the best!" Aya had thought so for a long time. ”
