readx(); Emperor Tianwu tried his best to recall the past, his expression was very serious, and the more serious he became, the more headache he got. Finally, he put down his hand holding Concubine Yuan Shu, held his head and began to hum softly. → Eight → Eight → Read → Book
,↓o≥
This is what Concubine Yuan Shu fears the most. Emperor Tianwu will always get a headache whenever he gets into trouble. This is the sequelae of her secret manipulations, and it is also a mistake that she has not thought of the best solution so far. Seeing that Emperor Tianwu is stuck in the back,
In the memory of the past, Concubine Yuan Shu quickly gave the eighth prince a wink. The eighth prince understood and quickly picked up the wine glass and said to Emperor Tianwu: "Father, please taste this wine carefully. This is the wine that my son, who was ten years old,
It has been secretly buried in the palace for many years, and I will wait for many years to open the altar and invite my father to taste it together."
Xuan Tianmo successfully used Emperor Tianwu's fondness for alcohol to turn his attention back. As soon as he heard about wine, which Xuan Tianmo had buried when he was ten years old, those who were struggling to remember just a moment ago suddenly became confused.
I raised my head and didn't feel the pain anymore, so I blurted out and asked, "Have you been buried for more than ten years?"
Xuan Tianmo nodded, "Indeed. Although there are more wines in the palace, and they have been there for hundreds of years, this jar of wine has been carefully blended by my servants. It has a pure taste and a fragrant taste. No matter how hard my father tastes it,
.”
Emperor Tianwu couldn't resist such temptation, so he immediately dropped the topic of "how the New Year was celebrated in the past" and started drinking with Xuan Tianmo. Concubine Yuan Shu also breathed a sigh of relief, but she was secretly anxious in her heart. She didn't know why.
At some point, Emperor Tianwu could put the past behind him completely and no longer suffer from such headaches that frightened her.
After a few glasses of wine, Emperor Tianwu praised Concubine Yuan Shu for how good the wine was. Then he held Concubine Yuan Shu in his arms and said, "Tomorrow is the first day of the Lunar New Year. There will be a palace banquet in the evening. I will publicly announce you as my concubine at the palace banquet."
My beloved concubine has suffered so much in the palace for so many years. I have risked my life to make up for the debt of more than twenty years." After saying that, he murmured again: "How can I bear not seeing you for more than twenty years?
What about you? Damn it!"
"Your Majesty, don't say such things!" Concubine Yuan Shu quickly covered Emperor Tianwu's mouth and said softly: "As long as the Emperor can remember me now, let's not mention the past. What's more, the Emperor also
I have not let down my concubine, at least I have given me a son. I have a son at my knees, and everything is content with me.”
"Yes! There is also our son." Emperor Tianwu looked at Xuan Tianmo and said: "In two years' time it will be time to establish a prince. At my age, I am afraid that I will not have a few years to live. I will always have to pay for my return.
While he is still alive, Mo'er, who legitimately left this throne to us, cannot let other brothers bully him."
Xuan Tianmo said with an moved face: "Father, I don't want the throne. As long as the father is in good health and our family is together well, it is better than anything else. The throne is something outside the body. If you get the throne, you will have to lose your father."
At the expense of the emperor, I will never accept this!"
Emperor Tianwu was moved and sighed: "What a good boy, what a good boy! How wonderful it would be if all my children were like Mo'er!" As he spoke, his expression started to change again.
I was in a trance for a while, always feeling like something was wrong around me, but I couldn't remember what was wrong for a while, so I subconsciously shouted: "Xiao Yuanzi! Xiao Yuanzi, where did you die?"
This scream almost brought out the soul of Concubine Yuan Shu. Then when she saw that the person who came up to answer the question was the eunuch Wu Ying, she began to feel faintly worried that something might happen tonight.
Wu Ying stood next to Emperor Tianwu and responded respectfully, but Emperor Tianwu looked at him with a strange look, and even asked: "Where did you come from as a slave? Where is my little distant son who doesn't know the heights of the world?"
Wu Ying glanced at Concubine Yuan Shu and saw that Concubine Yuan Shu didn't give any special sign, so she bit the bullet and told the truth: "Eunuch Zhang Yuan made a mistake and was sent to the Sin Slave Department by the emperor ten days ago. The emperor forgot
Is it done?”
Emperor Tianwu was stunned, "Did I send Xiao Yuanzi to the Sinu Division? It's strange, when did I drive him to the Sinu Division? How could I drive him to that kind of place? Didn't you all say that the Sinu Division
Can Si can eat people? Then why did I let Xiao Yuanzi go?" Tianwu was panicked for a while, and he even looked at Concubine Yuan Shu with questioning eyes.
Concubine Yuan Shu felt a thump in her heart, but she could only bite the bullet and said: "Eunuch Yuan did make the emperor angry at that time. I also tried to persuade him, but I couldn't persuade him. If the emperor regrets it,
If you want Eunuch Far to come back, that's easy, just go and call him back. Today is New Year's Eve, Your Majesty, it's better not to think about those bad things anymore, have a happy New Year's Eve and the New Year
Only then can the weather be smooth."
As she finished speaking, the sound of fireworks and firecrackers rang out outside. Xuan Tianmo quickly stood up and helped Emperor Tianwu, and at the same time said: "The fireworks are lighting up, Father, let's go and see them together!
"
Emperor Tianwu nodded, and with the support of Xuan Tianmo and Concubine Yuan Shu, he walked step by step outside the palace. As he walked, he muttered: "My memory has become worse and worse recently. After all,
When did you send Xiao Yuanzi away?"
Listening to Emperor Tianwu's words, both Xuan Tianmo and Concubine Yuan Shu felt worried, but at the moment they had no choice but to try their best to divert his attention with the things in front of them. For example, fireworks, for example
The Eighth Prince described to him the beautiful rivers and mountains of Dashun, as well as his ambition to reach the clouds.
But after watching the fireworks for a long time and listening to the nice words for a long time, Emperor Tianwu suddenly sneezed several times in a row and sucked his nose a few times - he had a cold.
In ancient times, colds were called wind-chill, and more serious ones were called typhoid. Seeing Emperor Tianwu sneezing, Concubine Yuan Shu did not dare to let him stand in the ice and snow for too long, so she quickly worked with Xuan Tianmo to help him back into the palace.
However, Emperor Tianwu's drunkenness increased, coupled with a sudden cold, his head ached for a while, and he sneezed one after another. When Concubine Yuan Shu saw that this was not going to work, she had no choice but to consult the imperial doctor.
The imperial doctor came to check his pulse, and the diagnosis was nothing more than typhoid fever. However, Emperor Tianwu was old after all, and his body became weaker every time he got sick. It was as if a big hand of the disease was hollowing out his body again and again. In addition,
After drinking again this time, the imperial doctors sighed, and some even suggested: "To cure the emperor's disease, it is best to invite Princess Yu or Yao Xian to the palace. If we only use traditional medical skills, I am afraid it will be cured."
The emperor's body will suffer too much."
But Concubine Yuan Shu and the Eighth Prince were not willing to let Feng Yuheng enter the palace to see Emperor Tianwu, so the imperial doctors could only bite the bullet and do everything possible to make Emperor Tianwu recover as soon as possible.
Tianwu suffered from typhoid fever. He was so sick that he offered to let the queen come to Zhaohe Hall to take care of her illness. Then he said to Concubine Yuan Shu: "My beloved, please leave the inner palace as soon as possible. I can't get over your illness. This harem
Are you and Mo'er still counting on you and Mo'er? Don't worry, I will get better and I will definitely not delay the palace banquet tomorrow or the appointment of you as a noble concubine."
Concubine Yuan Shu pretended to wipe away her tears and refused to leave. She said: "I am not afraid of getting sick, and I don't expect any noble concubine. I just want you to stay with the emperor at all times. I am not going anywhere.
Just stay here."
"No." Emperor Tianwu shook his head resolutely, "The position of imperial concubine is my promise to you. I have been looking forward to this for so long, and I must do it tomorrow! So my beloved concubine, if you want to be obedient, treat it as a good thing for me.
I have to guard this harem, and you can't fall ill, you know? And Mo'er, think about him, Mo'er is the best candidate in my heart, you have to take good care of Mo'er for me!"
After Emperor Tianwu said such words, Concubine Yuan Shu could not say anything more. She could only retreat to the outer hall under Emperor Tianwu's determined gaze. She did not leave, but stood in the outer hall and waited for a long time until the queen came in with her maid.
Then she stepped forward and saluted, and said: "It's cold outside, and the emperor suddenly caught the wind and cold. He personally named the empress to attend to his illness, so I asked the empress to take care of me."
The queen glanced at her, with a cold expression on her face and her head raised slightly. She was full of momentum as the mother of a country. "I am the queen, and it is my duty to serve the emperor. Concubine Shu, please come back if nothing happens!"
Concubine Yuan Shu nodded, then glanced at the queen and whispered: "The queen must serve the emperor well. Don't let down the emperor's love, and don't forget that there will be a palace banquet tomorrow!"
The queen never likes to talk to Concubine Yuan Shu. The only person in the harem who dares to threaten her is Concubine Yuan Shu. Now that Concubine Yuan Shu is so pampered, she feels that any more words she says are unnecessary and annoying.
Not to mention the benefits, she was suddenly coerced and ridiculed by this person again. She walked towards the inner hall, but as she walked, she made a mistake in her heart: Seeing how Concubine Yuan Shu looked, she was not happy that she came to serve her.
Yes, but the emperor listens to Concubine Yuan Shu so much now. If Concubine Yuan Shu didn't ask her to come, who would it be? The emperor himself? c≡miàoc≡bic≡gec≡
Walking into the inner hall of Zhaohe Hall with all kinds of doubts, the Queen's heart skipped a beat when she saw Emperor Tianwu for the first time. She couldn't help but quicken her steps, stepped forward and shook Emperor Tianwu's hand, and whispered:
"How did the Emperor become so thin?"
She hadn't seen Emperor Tianwu for a long time, not since Concubine Yuan Shu was favored. Although Emperor Tianwu didn't go to the harem before, she was a queen and she still had to meet with the emperor every once in a while.
This time I haven't seen him for so long. I took a quick look and saw that Emperor Tianwu had actually lost a lot of weight. Not only was he thin, his eye sockets were also black, and he looked very haggard. And this kind of haggardness could not be caused by a typhoid fever.
It was like a body that had been hollowed out over time, which made her think of the nightly joy between Emperor Tianwu and Concubine Yuan Shu in the Zhaohe Hall.
The queen's expression was not very good. She wanted to give some advice, but she felt that it was inappropriate to say such words. It sounded like the mother of a country was jealous of a concubine. Not only did she lose her grace, but she also easily aroused Emperor Tianwu's anger.
Bored. So, when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back, and could only say: "The emperor still needs to replenish his body and replenish his vitality in order to strengthen his body."
Emperor Tianwu didn't understand the Queen's words, and he didn't even think about it carefully. He just regarded the Queen as a routine greeting. So he waved his hand and said to the Queen: "I just lost a little weight, it's okay. It's not all about being thin.
Are you feeling energetic? You used to be too fat, but now you feel fine." After saying that, he shook the queen's hand and looked outside again.
The queen understood what he meant and took the initiative to speak to the eunuch Wu Ying who was guarding the dragon bed: "You all go down! I have something to say to the emperor alone."
Wu Ying glanced at Emperor Tianwu and saw that Emperor Tianwu had no objection. Although he was reluctant, he had to listen to the queen's words. So he led a group of palace people out of the inner hall, followed by Fang Yi who also closed the inner hall.
door, and then stand guard at the door.
The queen then asked Tianwu again: "Does the emperor want to say something to my concubine?"
