Chapter 1059 Let him go
Even the fastest and most powerful goshawks flew from Dashun Capital to the Ancient Shu Palace for a full eighteen days. [∞8 [∞8 [∞8 [∞read [∞∞, ︾o@
During these eighteen days, the situation in the capital stabilized for a while. Due to the Chinese New Year, Emperor Tianwu sealed the seal and did not attend court, and even dragged the holidays to the 16th day of the first lunar month. So during this period, people were relatively leisurely and no one went to the palace, and the excitement in the palace became quiet.
Concubine Yuan and Emperor Tianwu were in love, and they were with each other all day long, walking around the palace from time to time, but nothing happened. The eighth prince Xuan Tianmo stayed in Prince Sheng’s Mansion all day on the grounds of nourishing his body, and said to the outside world that he had eaten well and could not see guests within a short period of time.
People were a little confused about the condition of the Eighth Prince. People remembered the sudden illness of the Eighth Prince at the palace banquet on the first day of the Lunar New Year. Some even remembered that his legs were tightly clamped, as if he was constantly twisting, which was extremely painful. But no one knew what allergies were. Someone asked the doctor quietly, and the doctor also said that allergies could be reflected anywhere, but as long as he no longer came into contact with allergic substances, he would be cured for a while. Only then did the members of the Eighth Prince Party relieved.
Feng Yuheng did not go to the palace to take care of Concubine Yuan. Concubine Yuan himself saw all the doctors in the Imperial Hospital. Everyone prescribed a lot of prescriptions for her "child-seeking intention". She drank bitter medicine all day long, and was also very upset.
Emperor Tianwu advised her: "Let Lao Jiu's wife come to the palace to help you adjust it? Her medical skills are still good. The old guys in the Imperial Hospital are not as good as her. Look at the things you drink every day, I see it bitter. I have heard that Lao Jiu's wife has the kind of medicine in her hand, which is not bitter and will not suffer if she takes it."
But Concubine Yuan dared not let Feng Yuheng enter the palace. She has been panicked since Feng Yuheng left last time. With the disease of the Eighth Prince, she has never let go of her heart. Now that Emperor Tianwu mentioned this again, she simply expressed her thoughts: "Emperor, the Princess Yu is a person around His Highness Nine. You also know that His Highness Nine has always been coveting the throne. It is always unreasonable to let her enter the palace to regulate her concubines."
"Old Jiu covet the throne?" Emperor Tianwu frowned and snorted coldly, "It's useless for anyone to covet it. I have made up my mind to pass the throne to Mo'er, so he can't let him think about it." After saying that, he sighed and said, "Mo'er hasn't come to the palace for some days, and I don't know if his allergy is better."
Concubine Yuan sighed and said straight: "I am worried all day long and can't sleep well at night."
"I see it." He stroked Concubine Yuan with his big hand, "I feel sorry for you as you become more and more haggard, so let's do it! I allow you to leave the palace, and you can go to Prince Sheng's Mansion to see Mo'er in person, so as not to worry about it. I also want to know Mo'er's situation. You can come back after seeing it and talk to me."
"The emperor is willing to leave the palace to see the emperor's son?" Concubine Yuan was very happy. The concubines in the palace cannot leave the palace unless there is a emperor's concession, but generally speaking, such concessions are too rare. Concubine Yuan also wanted to see Xuan Tianmo and asked him how his condition was, but she couldn't get out, and Xuan Tianmo never came in. These days it really made her anxious. Today, Emperor Tianwu actually made this kind of favor, and she was so happy that she knelt down and kowtowed to Emperor Tianwu three times.
Emperor Tianwu helped the man up, put his cloak on her, and asked the eunuch Wu Ying to accompany him. Then he watched Concubine Yuan leave Zhaohe Hall and suddenly said, "Xiao Yuanzi, accompany me for a walk."
After saying that, he waited for a while, but no one answered. He was stunned, wondering why he called out such a sentence. Who is Xiao Yuanzi? For a moment, his mind was a little confused again.
A little eunuch who was waiting in the hall had to come up and stood beside Emperor Tianwu, waiting quietly for the order. After a while, Emperor Tianwu finally said, "Accompany me to go out, the charcoal fire in the hall is burning vigorously, which makes me feel a headache."
The emperor said that he wanted to go out for a walk, and there were no missing people following him. For a moment, all the palace servants who were serving in Zhaohe Palace followed him, both near and far, with great momentum.
Emperor Tianwu did not stop him, but walked in front with his hands behind his back, strideing hard, and ignored anyone.
He was aimless, but it was nothing more than walking around the palace. He walked from Zhaohe Palace to the harem, then entered the garden from the harem, and then walked around the garden, surrounding the ice lake. After nearly an hour of walking, the palace servants following him couldn't help but reminded: "Your Majesty, it's cold outside, let's go back!"
Emperor Tianwu did not say anything, but just lowered his head and walked constantly on the path. But in fact, he was thinking about what the confused feeling that he occasionally had in recent days was going on? Now that Concubine Yuan was not by his side, he discovered something. When Concubine Yuan was not by his side, he would be particularly prone to random thoughts, thinking about the locked things in the palace, thinking about how he lived his past life? Why did he feel that he had forgotten many things? He also thought about what Concubine Yuan said just now that the Ninth Prince also wanted to be the throne. These messy thoughts only arise after Concubine Yuan left, and as long as Concubine Yuan returned to him, the full sense of happiness would follow, making him feel that Concubine Yuan was the best person in the world, and the Eighth Prince was the one who really wanted to pass the throne.
Emperor Tianwu felt that he was sick and had a disease that could not be separated from Concubine Yuan. He was really glad that he had such a concubine around him! Otherwise, no one could cure his disease. He would be like this all day, like a headless fly, and he always felt like he had no idea what to do. He said some lovely words, and he was like a duckweed without roots and didn't know where to lean on.
After walking around a small garden again, Emperor Tianwu stopped and looked at the thick snow in the garden, and suddenly murmured: "Are I really old? This should be Alzheimer's disease?" After he said that, he was stunned again, Alzheimer's disease? Where did he learn this? It seems that someone had said this to him in his memory, but he couldn't remember who had told him.
The little eunuch around him didn't understand what he was saying, and asked tightly: "Is there something wrong with the emperor?"
Emperor Tianwu waved his hand and was about to say it was okay, but at this moment, he saw someone walking towards the other side of the path. The eunuch dressed up and kept his head down until he got closer. Then he found someone in front of him. When he looked up and saw himself, he was stunned. Then he lowered his head, stepped forward respectfully, knelt down, and said, "I'm kowtowing the emperor! I don't know that the emperor is here, I'm disturbing the emperor. Please forgive me."
Emperor Tianwu looked at the man and cried blankly: "Zhang Yuan? Why are you here?" Then he subconsciously added: "It's so cold on the ground! Why are you doing kneeling?" But after saying that, he suddenly realized that I should kneel when I saw him? So many people have knelt, why do I have to worry about this little eunuch catching a cold? He wanted to change his words, but it wasn't a big deal. He felt that this little eunuch didn't seem to have to kneel when he saw him. This thought came from somewhere, which surprised him very much.
The kneeling man felt a sore feeling when he heard this. But no matter how sour he was, Zhang Yuan was already afraid and dared not be arrogant in front of Emperor Tianwu. He knew that the current emperor was no longer the person he had served since childhood. Although the surface was the same, his inner world had been changed. He was very likely to be insulted into the Sin Nusi again, and that place was something he would never want to go again in his life. Those days were probably going to be the most terrifying memory of his life.
"Your Majesty, I am not afraid of the cold, I am just kneeling down." He spoke respectfully and cautiously, and his head never raised any more. The unfamiliarity in his words was completely different from Zhang Yuan in the past. Emperor Tianwu looked at the little eunuch and began to feel that he had really forgotten many important things.
The two of them knelt and stood quietly. After a long time, Emperor Tianwu sighed again and said to himself: "I am old, and I don't remember many people and many things. I always feel that you are very friendly and familiar with me, but I just can't remember why you feel this way. I forgot everything in the past, and I forgot everything!" He said as he reached out to Zhang Yuan to help him, and said: "Get up! Go and do your errand, I want to be alone."
Zhang Yuan kowtowed to Emperor Tianwu respectfully and cautiously, and said again: "I have surrendered." Then he stood up, took a few steps back, turned around and left. △≧△≧,
Emperor Tianwu subconsciously shouted again: "Xiao Yuanzi!" As soon as the title was said, he immediately thought that he had called Xiao Yuanzi from Zhang Yuan! He finally remembered who Xiao Yuanzi was, but... what's the use of remembering it? Apart from this title, he could at most remember that Zhang Yuan had served him for a while, and no matter how many he had, he had no impression of it. It seemed like there was a rag in his mind. As soon as he remembered a little, someone waved the rag to wipe it off, which made him forget it as soon as he remembered it.
But who was the one who waved the rag?
He was extremely entangled, but Zhang Yuan stopped when he heard the sound of Xiao Yuanzi, and finally looked up at Emperor Tianwu, but this glance made his tears gush out and he could no longer control it.
Emperor Tianwu saw it and was even more puzzled. He asked in a daze: "Why do you cry? Why do you cry when you see me? Did I scare you?"
Zhang Yuan shook his head, took a step back and said nothing.
When Emperor Tianwu saw him retreating, he unconsciously stepped forward. He always had an impulse to persuade the little eunuch not to cry, because he cried so hard that he felt uncomfortable and a little distressed. Just like seeing his own child crying in front of him, he always wanted to go forward and coax. But isn’t it too strange for an emperor to coax the eunuch?
