After the examination, I supported the Supreme Emperor as he walked out. Unfortunately, the Supreme Emperor was now very thin and had to be supported when going in and out for fear of falling. This was unprecedented.
Yuan Qingling talked with them in the corridor for a while. Yuan Qingling guessed that they lived in Prince Su's Mansion back then and were brought by Princess Anfeng.
Treat him like a son.
"Nowadays, we get together more often. In the past few years, we all had our own busy schedules. Chu Xiaowu especially didn't want to come to Qiankun Hall and didn't want to see Xiao Xi. In fact, Gu was also angry, but that's all, he was already here
I was very busy outside with Beitang, so I forgave him." The Supreme Emperor said to himself, his whole mood was extremely excited, and the news that King Pingnan was coming back made him feel as if he had been given a shot of blood.
Chu Xiaowu? Yuan Qingling looked at Chu Shoufu, wasn't his name Chu Da? Why did he call him Chu Xiaowu?
Chu Shoufu smiled, "Everything is fine now."
The sun slowly shines on several old people in their twilight years. There is a distant feeling in their eyes. It can be seen that everyone is immersed in the past. Yuan Qingling thinks this is simply the most beautiful picture. The friendship between teenagers will accompany them until they grow old.
She also hopes that when she is old, in addition to being surrounded by her children and grandchildren, people from the past will also be by her side. Even if she cannot see each other every day, when she can see them, they will be not far away. In such a life, it is still possible.
Any regrets?
After talking for a while, Chu Shoufu and Xiaoyao Gong went to work again. Yuan Qingling also went to the front hall to show Emperor Ming Yuan.
Emperor Ming Yuan's condition was not that serious. After being unable to eat for three days, he suffered from abdominal pain and stomachache after eating again. After Yuan Qingling gave medicine and cooperated with the treatment of the imperial doctor, his condition is now better. He only has stagnation of liver fire.
Delegating power was his arrangement, and it was also a decision he and Yu Wenhao made after discussing it in the imperial study that day. The prince oversees the country, and the various yamen are definitely not as stable as before. If someone wants to take advantage of the loopholes, now is the best time.
Emperor Ming Yuan was lying on the imperial concubine's chair in front of the corridor, with Concubine Hu waiting by his side, reading a storybook to him. Except for Concubine Hu's voice, there was no other sound in the entire palace.
Yuan Qing Ling Fu had seen her in person. Concubine Hu put her script on the bamboo table and rubbed her brows, "It seems like someone is here."
Yuan Qing Ling smiled, she knew it was not that no one came, but that no one saw her father.
Yuan Qing Ling asked, "Father, do you feel better?"
Emperor Ming Yuan lost a lot of weight, his chin was pointed, and there were bruises under his eyes, which were almost black. It showed that he was not sleeping well. He said lazily: "It's much better, but I still can't fall asleep."
"Can't sleep all the time?" Yuan Qingling asked.
"You can't sleep at night, and you can't sleep during the day either." Concubine Hu said softly, with worry in her eyes.
Yuan Qing Ling said: "Then you didn't ask the imperial doctor to prescribe soothing tea?"
"I've been prescribed jujube kernel tea, but drinking it doesn't have much effect." Concubine Hu also answered on her behalf.
Yuan Qingling opened the medicine box, took out a bottle of medicine from it, and handed it to Concubine Hu, "This is a sleeping pill, but don't take more. If you really can't sleep, just take one. It just has serious side effects and makes you feel less energetic after you wake up."
"Then take one now!" Emperor Ming Yuan was obviously very tired and wanted to fall asleep to calm his mind.
Concubine Hu poured one for him, and he swallowed it directly. Concubine Hu just took the water and saw that he had already eaten it, so she said, "Then take another sip of water."
"Don't drink anymore, put it down!" Emperor Ming Yuan seemed to have no energy.
Concubine Hu sighed softly, "I can't eat or drink water. How can I do this? Apart from soup and medicine, I haven't touched anything else in the past few days."
Emperor Ming Yuan patted the back of her hand and said, "You don't have to stay here all the time. Mu Ru is outside. Go back and rest for a while."
Concubine Hu shook her head. In the past few days, she had also lost some weight. "I can rest when I go back. I won't feel uneasy. I will keep you here, and I will feel at ease."
Emperor Ming Yuan slowly closed his eyes, feeling weak, "You still have to focus more on Lao Shi, or help the imperial concubine take care of the affairs in the palace. I will always leave before you.
"
Concubine Hu was shocked when she heard this, "How can you talk nonsense? You are not allowed to say such things again."
Emperor Ming Yuan raised the corners of his lips and forced out a weak smile, "This will eventually happen, it cannot be avoided."
Tears quickly accumulated in Concubine Hu's eyes, and she said in a trembling voice: "Do you have to make me sad like this?"
Emperor Ming Yuan opened his eyes, reached out and grabbed her hand, "Okay, don't tell me."
Yuan Qingling knew that because of Yu Wenjun's death, her father was very depressed. When she saw the death of her relatives, she was not only sad but also felt sorry for herself. She said softly: "Father, you must take care of your dragon body.
Lao Wu’s shoulders are too tender and he can’t carry many things!”
Emperor Ming Yuan then narrowed his eyes and laughed, "I brought you to me to avenge Lao Wu?"
"Don't dare!" Yuanqing Lingke really wanted to complain. A five-year-old was given a few yuan to spend, and she couldn't seem to leave him anywhere. In fact, after Yu Wenjun's funeral, there was no relationship between them for a few days.
Why did we talk? She was asleep when he came back. She didn't get up in the morning. He had already gone out. The house was turned into a hotel. Not to mention going to Jinghu Lake, there was no time to have a meal together.
Emperor Ming Yuan said: "I know it's difficult for him, but it is his duty to share the worries of the king and father! And this country will be his sooner or later, so there is nothing wrong with him working hard in advance. He will one day ascend the throne."
Concubine Hu burst into tears.
These words were too cruel to her, because if the prince ascended the throne, it would mean that he had collapsed.
"Why are you crying? It's just gossip." Emperor Ming Yuan still felt sorry for his wife and reached out to wipe her tears.
Concubine Hu gritted her teeth and widened her almond-shaped eyes, "I just ask you, please, please don't say such things again. This life is already bad enough. You still say these sad words over and over again. Do you hate me so much?"
Emperor Ming Yuan laughed, and his eyes suddenly softened, "This is you, don't worry about me, don't compromise, that's all."
Yuan Qingling opened the medicine box and prescribed some medicine. His stomach problem was actually quite serious. Being an emperor was indeed a hard job, and it had not stopped over the years. When major events happened in the country, he often forgot about sleep.
If you eat too much for a long time, your stomach will become weak.
After Yuan Qingling prescribed the medicine, she went out and saw that Emperor Ming Yuan was asleep. Concubine Hu gently put a bedding on him and called Eunuch Mu Ru to come in and watch over her. She tiptoed into the palace, holding him
Yuan Qingling sat down with her hands.
"Princess, please tell me truthfully, is the emperor's condition serious?" Although Concubine Hu stayed by her side every day, she always avoided her when talking about her condition. She was extremely worried.
"It's not particularly serious, but you still have to pay attention." Yuan Qing Ling said.
Concubine Hu's eyes were red, and she swallowed: "You can't hide it from me. Every time you tell me about your illness, you hide it from me. Moreover, he can't eat or sleep. He has lost a lot of weight."
Yuan Qing Lingxin said: His condition is not very serious at first. He kept it secret because he didn't want people to know that his condition was still minor. Unexpectedly, Concubine Hu misunderstood.
Just as she was about to comfort him, she heard Concubine Hu crying: "If anything happens to him, I won't be able to live anymore."
