Chapter 9 Undercurrent (III)

There is a saying that illness comes like a mountain falling, and illness goes like a thread being drawn.

Three more days passed, and Guo Wei's health gradually improved under the careful care of Concubine Yang Shu, but his energy was far less than before. He only sat for half an hour every day, and he started to feel drowsy again. His appetite when eating was getting worse and worse.

The imperial physicians did not dare to use too strong medicine for the emperor, but just advised him to eat more and less. In other words, when he is energetic and enjoyable, just take a few bites, and don’t force him when he doesn’t want to. This will make Guo Wei, who was already a little thin, look even more and more slim.

"Concubine Shu, you have suffered in recent days." On the afternoon of the fourth day after waking up, Guo Wei drank a bowl of ginseng soup and leaned on the bed. Looking at Concubine Yang, who suddenly had white hair leaking from his temples, he suddenly sighed softly.

"Your Majesty, what do you say? Isn't it all right for me to do for you? Even among the people, there is no reason why my wife ignores her own man when he gets sick?" Yang Shufei pulled Guo Wei's hand, and her smile was filled with fatigue and worry. "Now I just hope that you can recover as soon as possible, and go out to see the sun as soon as possible. In that way, no matter how hard or tired I am, I will feel more at ease!"

"Yes, we are also considered old husbands and wives." Guo Wei slept for more than half a day today. At this moment, he was finally a little energetic by the ginseng soup. He smiled and whispered. "Oh, life is so fast! It's like a blink of an eye, many years have passed."

Once upon a time, I was drinking with a group of old brothers in the army, and three or five jars were no problem. Even if I was drunk, I could still wear a strong and hold my head in the next day and charge into the battle. Now, once an overdose made him lie on the bed for several days.

"Your Majesty is busy with government affairs all day long, so of course life will be fast." Yang Shufei heard the unwillingness in Guo Wei's words, fearing that he would remember the past when the whole family was slaughtered, so she quickly said to him, "If it were among the people, life would be much slower. When I was at home, after collecting silk in spring, I looked forward to harvesting millets in the beginning of autumn. When the millets entered the warehouse, I looked forward to the New Year again. During the Chinese New Year, I could buy new clothes and new shoes. When I met adults, I was in a good mood or had a good year. I could also buy a pair of bracelets or hairpins for me! Although they were all tin, but I only had a layer of copper water on the surface, but when I saw it, I felt very happy when I looked at it.

"See what you said, your family is not an ordinary person, so you are not short of a pair of gold bracelets? You are also fooling with tin!" Guo Wei couldn't help but smile and shake his head when he heard Yang Guifei's words interesting.

"That's different. I am a daughter. I am born with a foreign surname. The money at home is left to my brother and younger brother. So, when my sister-in-law entered the door, she could buy gold bracelets. And I was destined to lose money, so it would be nice to have a tin bracelet coated with copper water!" Purely trying to distract Guo Wei's attention, Yang Guifei deliberately pretended to be full of envy and slowly replenished. "It was not until later that my brother and sister-in-law felt guilty that they secretly stuffed me a gold piece while my grandmother was not paying attention. As a result, I didn't dare to wear it, so I could only hide it under the box, and only took it out and touched it when there was no one at night."

"The more I talked, I became more and more miserable. Be careful that my Lord Taishan came to the palace to settle the score with you!" Unable to let down his wife's painstaking efforts, Guo Wei deliberately pretended to be amused and shook his head with his lips. "However, Brother Ling is indeed a kind person. How did he recently? It seems that he hasn't been to Bianliang for a long time!"

"I don't know how he has been recently. He is very careless and doesn't know how to send someone to send me a letter!" Yang Shufei shook her head and complained in a little frustrated, "Maybe it's busy with official duties. He is not an official at all. Your Majesty shouldn't have promoted him in an extraordinary way."

"What is the difference between a small official with the size of sesame and mung bean?" Guo Wei reached out and grabbed Yang Shufei's hand, patted her, and said with a smile, "Brother may not be able to be capable, but the rare thing is to be serious and willing to do it. You don't have to worry about him. With his personality, in the local area, you will never rely on your identity to do something that will make you unable to get out of the stage until the end!"

"I hope!" Yang Shufei held Guo Wei's hand, sighed softly, and whispered.

"Even if you do it, you won't be able to deal with it." Seeing that she was a little unsteady, Guo Wei smiled and comforted, "Don't worry, Chang Kegong's guy looks confused on the surface and is doing things in detail. It's not easy for your brother to make mistakes under his hands!"

After he finished speaking, he suddenly thought that he hadn't heard from his old brother Chang Si for a long time. He couldn't help but frown and asked in a low voice, "Chang Sike recently sent memorials. His base is close to the pseudo-han, so don't let Liu Chong have a chance!"

"No, there are only a few copies of the memorials sent to the palace every day. I have placed them on the head of the bed for the emperor!" Yang Shufei thought for a while, and smiled and said.

Following her gesture, Guo Wei turned his head and indeed saw more than a dozen memorials on the small table beside the bed. Most of them were reviewed by him in the past few days, but they had not been sent back to the Privy Council Monk Province in time. A few others were sent to the palace when he was sleeping today. They looked light and thin, and obviously there was no content worth caring about.

Despite this, he still didn't want to waste his time. He tried hard to sit up a little and whispered a low order. "Take it over for me, I will take advantage of today's sobering, and at least deal with the errand!"

"Yeah!" Yang Shufei agreed softly, stood up and held the unreviewed memorial to the head of the bed, "It should be nothing important, otherwise, the monks and ministers of the Privy Council will make special marks!"

"It's good that there's nothing to do!" Guo Wei grabbed the memorials and read them one by one. Before he got sick, he was exhausted every day and could not finish the government affairs. Suddenly, the memorials were less than one-tenth of the original one, which made it really difficult for him to adapt.

As expected, nothing big happened. From west to east, from south to north, there was peace. Good luck appeared all over the country, with officials clean and honest, and the people living and working in peace. The people of Liao seemed to have suddenly changed their temperament. From the beginning of autumn to the present, a horse has not crossed the boundary river.

If Liu Chengyou saw this situation, he would definitely be happy on the spot and then ordered a banquet to celebrate in the palace. However, Guo Wei was an old man who had been several local governors. After all, he felt something was wrong when he was serious. He frowned and asked with a smile: "That's all? It seems that when I get sick, the country will be prosperous and the people will be safe. If I had known this, I would have had more illnesses!"

"Your Majesty must not say that!" Yang Guifei was startled and quickly reached out to cover Guo Wei's mouth. She reached halfway through her hand, but she remembered that the other party was the Emperor of the Great Zhou and was not an ordinary folk couple. She suddenly stiffened her body and added in a low voice with tears in her eyes, "Your Majesty, how can Your Majesty curse herself like this? The memorial is that the Privy Council is worried that you are not safe in your dragon body and deliberately did not send it to the palace. Your Majesty, why are you..."

"Okay, I know. Who made the decision? I intercepted the memorial and didn't give it to me Yu Lan?" Guo Wei's heart twitched suddenly, and his face suddenly became gloomy.

"I, I don't know much." Yang Guifei was originally timid, but when she saw him, she seemed to be so angry that she became more and more distorted. "I have never been interested in asking about these things, and I also know that Your Majesty does not like me asking about these things. Therefore, I can only accept as much as I send in outside."

"Okay, I know!" Hearing this, Guo Wei felt even more uneasy, waved his hand impatiently, and whispered, "Don't cry, I don't blame you. I never expected that I would suddenly become so sick. You have been exhausted these days, so go and rest for a while. By the way, call Li Fu in to me."

"Yes, I obey the order!" Yang Guifei raised her hand and wiped her tears and slowly stood up. However, she refused to leave immediately. Instead, she hesitated for a moment, lowered her head and replied in a very low voice, "Your Majesty, Li Fu has been expelled from the palace! The newly selected eunuch leader to serve you, the surname Lin, is the original official of the Imperial Horse Supervisory Office."

Guo Wei's brows quickly raised, like two upside-down steel knives. "What? Li Fu was expelled from the palace. Why don't I know who expelled him?"

"Yes, it's Wang Shumi." Yang Guifei was so scared that she shivered, and her head lowered, and her lips almost touched Guo Wei's ears. "I don't want to do it either. I want to wait until Your Majesty wakes up. But on the night when Your Majesty fainted, Wang Shumi learned that it was Li Fu's wine to His Majesty, so she ordered someone to expel him from the palace. I once dissuaded him, but Wang Shumi said that it is about Your Majesty's safety, and this is a state affairs, and he has the right to make decisions!"

"Oh, that's it!" Guo Wei's face suddenly became clear again. His tone of speaking was not as sharp as before. But light was inadvertently revealed in his eyes, but there was a bit of coldness. "That's it. Xiufeng's words make sense. By the way, there was no conflict between Baoyi and Chongjin, they have not had any conflicts recently, right?"

Hearing that Guo Wei changed the subject automatically, Concubine Yang quickly wiped her eyes and shook her head with a smile: "These two children always love to make trouble. I haven't heard anything about them recently. Oh, I came to see the emperor with a hug at noon today. The old ginseng used in the ginseng soup in the afternoon was also his offering. However, the emperor was still sleeping at that time, so I didn't dare to wake you up."

"Oh!" Guo Wei smiled and nodded slightly.

Hu Yi is his fourth son-in-law, Zhang Yongde, the chief lord of the palace. Since this person can still enter and exit the palace, it means that the army in front of the palace has not been completely controlled by others. There will be no problem with the safety of him and Yang Guifei for the time being.

However, the current situation is obviously much worse than three days ago. If you delay like this, you may have completely controlled the overall situation before he recovers from illness. But now you get up and confront Wang Jun and others, and he is powerless.

The old brothers are not good at taking back all power without any trace and not arousing the other party's rebound, the scale must be strictly grasped. If you lose it, it is probably two completely different results. You can even let blood flow in Bianliang City.

As a founding emperor, Guo Wei's intuition has made him feel alarmed.

The eunuch who served him personally was expelled from the palace without his consent. The memorials sent to the palace were less than 10% of the normal time. As half of the master of the harem, Yang Guifei actually went to taste food and all the soup for herself, and served her food and daily life with her own hands. She was sick for so many days and only Wang Jun, Li Chongjin, Zhang Yongde and others came to visit him. The other civil servants and generals were unaware of it, or they ignored the life and death of the emperor!

If these things cannot make him realize that he may encounter danger at any time, he will be in vain for half of his life. But how much is the old brothers? Are you planning to put him as the emperor, or are you going to kill him despite the years of fighting side by side? He cannot make an accurate judgment. He cannot make an accurate judgment. He cannot judge. In the days when he was unconscious and ill, how many civil and military officials and generals in Bianliang fell to Wang Jun? If he takes action now, how many people can he win?

If I had known this, I would have listened to Yang Fei's advice a few days ago and quickly transferred the prince and Zheng Ziming to Bianliang! For the first time in my life, Guo Wei began to regret his decision. Although the prince and Zheng Ziming had less than 5,000 troops in his hands, they were still a force that could be trusted. Among the imperial guards and palace guards, Guo Wei didn't know whether he could still move half of it!
