As soon as Yu Wenhao left the palace, he saw Chu Shoufu's carriage waiting outside the palace gate. Chu Shoufu asked someone to stop him and asked him to get in the carriage.
On top of the carriage, the curtain fell, and the voice of Chu Shoufu was slightly sullen, "You are too impulsive. You will lose the emperor's face by doing this. And isn't it ironic that your son will ask him about the crime of unfilial piety?"
Yu Wenhao said: "Chief Assistant, I know that I am reckless, but these two or three days have driven me crazy. Grandfather's condition is not optimistic, and I must receive treatment as soon as possible."
The chief assistant sighed, "Now you got your wish, but you also lost your official position and were grounded. Your hard work these days has been in vain."
Yu Wenhao smiled and said, "Be optimistic. At least the position of the prince is not abolished."
"If this continues, it will happen sooner or later."
The first assistant was worried.
Yu Wenhao looked at him, "Chief Assistant, please don't get too excited. This matter is not as pessimistic as you think. I contradicted my father like this in the court today. He looked angry, but did not punish me severely.
It's just cutting off officials and banning them. Have you ever thought about it?
With how harshly my father treats me, if he is really furious and disappointed in me, how can he stop like this?"
"What else?
They’ve all been cut off from their posts.”
The first assistant really can't be optimistic.
"When I cut my official position, I didn't give the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture to anyone. I even asked Lao Qi to take over Jingzhao Prefecture. Everyone knows that Lao Qi is mine and the power has not been left to me."
The first assistant was startled for a moment, "What do you mean, Your Highness?"
"There may be something else going on!"
Yu Wenhao became more and more certain.
The first assistant looked at him suspiciously, "What do you think is the inside story?"
"Has the First Assistant never doubted why my father's attitude toward his grandfather changed so much?"
"I have doubted it..." The first assistant pondered for a moment, "Just looking at the overall situation, the emperor does not need to make such a big show. Nothing major is happening at the moment. The memorials of all the officials left here first, and the state capitals
I will review the major and minor matters before submitting them to the emperor. At present, except for the serious troubles in the North Desert of Xianbei, the country is very peaceful. The most important thing is that if the emperor has other arrangements, it must be for the changes in the capital.
But what could be happening in the capital that even the Jingzhao Mansion and the Forbidden Army don’t know about?”
Yu Wenhao looked at the old chief minister and fell into troubled contemplation. The man in front of him was called a shaker in Beitang. It is not an exaggeration to say that he controlled half of Beitang. He was also used to knowing everything.
In his heart, especially after the Holy Emperor ascended the throne, he has seen all His Majesty's every move. There is no need to speculate, and the Emperor's thoughts cannot be hidden from him.
Now it was the first time, and he didn't know what the emperor was thinking.
"Is Your Highness really so optimistic?"
Chu Shoufu didn't even think about it and asked Yu Wenhao directly.
Yu Wenhao nodded, "Yes, think on the bright side."
Yu Wenhao is not really that optimistic in his heart, but he cannot be the first to be pessimistic.
The carriage brought Yu Wenhao back to the mansion. Yuan Qingling was waiting in the mansion. When he saw that he came back safely, he hugged him first without asking anything else.
Yu Wenhao also stretched out his arms to hug her and breathed a deep sigh of relief, "Old Yuan, my father allows you to go to the other village."
"real?"
Yuan Qingling couldn't believe it, "What's the price?"
"I will cut off my official position and ban me from my job!"
Yu Wenhao said pitifully, but his eyes were filled with relief.
Yuanqing Linghao was so angry that he said, "If you don't want to be the governor of Jingzhao, I won't do it. I will support you."
"Please take good care of me in the future!"
Yu Wenhao immediately agreed to stay at home and take care of his children.
Yuan Qingling pulled him to sit down and asked him to tell her everything that happened in the palace. After that, Yuan Qingling comforted her and said, "Don't be afraid. Grounding and loss of office are both trivial matters. It's good that you haven't been deposed."
"You really care about the position of prince."
After Yu Wenhao relaxed, he joked.
"This is the wish of the emperor's grandfather."
After Yuan Qingling finished speaking, she walked outside and called Man'er, "Pack your things and we'll rush to the other village overnight."
"I can't go with you. I have to be grounded in the house. But don't worry, I will find a way to sneak out to find you after two days."
Yu Wenhao said.
"It's okay, just take good care of the children in the house and enjoy a leisurely life. Isn't it the Chinese New Year soon?
There are many things inside and outside the mansion, please help Mr. Tang share some of them."
"also!"
Housework is a trivial matter.
Yuan Qingling took Man'er and Grandma Xi to the other courtyard overnight. As soon as they arrived at the other courtyard, it started to snow.
The Supreme Emperor was placed in the Dongnuang Pavilion in the villa. There were earth dragons there, which kept him very warm.
Eunuch Chang came out to greet her in person and said, "I hope the Crown Princess is here."
"How is the situation of the Emperor?"
Yuan Qingling stamped his feet and shook off the snowflakes from his body.
"I coughed all night last night and it's still hard to breathe."
Eunuch Chang said as he led her in.
Fu Bao ran out from inside, wrapped around Yuan Qing Ling's feet and chased after him. Yuan Qing Ling bent down and picked her up, "Good Fu Bao, I know how to accompany your master."
"Fu Bao is so good. Fu Bao has been keeping watch over His Majesty the Emperor these days while he was ill. He doesn't want to sleep outside at night."
Eunuch Chang said.
He opened the curtain and said softly: "Princess, come in, the Emperor has just woken up."
Yuan Qingling put down the Fu Bao and went in quietly.
It was very warm in the palace, and I lit ambergris, which has a refreshing fragrance. Smelling this fragrance when you are stuffy will make you feel refreshed.
The Supreme Emperor was lying on the bed, covered with a thick quilt. His face was a little blue and his eyes were sleepy. He looked like he had just woken up.
Seeing Yuan Qing coming, he cheered up a little, sat up slowly, and said hoarsely: "Here he comes!"
His breath was still a little thick, and he had to work harder when exhaling and inhaling.
Yuan Qingling walked over with the medicine box and half-knelt in front of the bed, "Here it comes!"
This old man was lying on the bed so weakly. Yuan Qingling didn't know what Emperor Ming Yuan was planning, but she couldn't forgive him for taking advantage of the Emperor's illness.
My heart felt sour, and I asked in a choked voice: "Grandfather, is your asthma better?"
"much better!"
The Supreme Emperor looked into her eyes, "Why are you crying?"
"Miss you."
Yuan Qingling wiped the corners of her eyes.
The Supreme Emperor was startled, his messy eyebrows slowly bent down, and he stared at her, "You're not a child, what are you saying childishly?"
He stretched out his hand and pressed it on his chest, lifting his abdomen as if he was trying to squeeze out a breath.
Yuan Qingling heard the slightest sound coming from the trachea, opened the medicine box and took out the budesonide. After opening it, he twisted it and said, "Open your mouth and cover the tip of your mouth. Take a strong breath and hold it in without breathing. I said you can breathe."
Breathe only when you have time.”
The Supreme Emperor watched as she stuffed a tube of white stuff into his mouth. He subconsciously obeyed, took a deep breath and held his breath.
"One, two, three, four, five, okay, exhale!"
Yuan Qingling sat beside the bed and reached out to gently comb his chest.
The Supreme Emperor's face turned red from holding it back. When he heard someone say he was exhaling, he exhaled deeply, frowned and asked, "What is this?"
