Now I’m talking about the dangers you may encounter after leaving Beijing.
Four years ago, when the princes were young, he almost died when he left the palace. But now, one prince is the only one, one is sick and the other is not yet born.
Traveling so far, and having to face disaster victims and rebels, it wouldn't be a surprise if something happened.
Prince Jin'an smiled.
"I'm also talking about serious business." He said, changing his posture to sit cross-legged. "I have known her for four years. Without her, I would have been dead for four years."
Doctor Li sighed.
"How could His Highness Jiren Tianxiang die? It's just that there is someone else without her." He said.
"There is no one else but her." Prince Jin'an said with a tone that left no room for doubt.
Doctor Li frowned.
"Since you can't bear to leave this little lady, why are you leaving Beijing?" he said simply.
"I can't bear to part with you, Doctor Li. You have really weird ideas at such an old age." Prince Jin'an frowned and said.
Doctor Li rolled his eyes.
Weird people tend to think other people are weird.
This little lady is indispensable in three sentences. Even a fool can see what you are thinking. Why are you hiding it from yourself?
Doctor Li snorted.
Thinking of this, he quickly shook his head. Now is not the time to think about this little lady.
"Your Highness, His Majesty's illness this time can be used as an opportunity for you and Prince Qing to return to the palace." He said after a moment of thought.
Prince Jin'an waved his hand to interrupt him.
"It's useless to go back to the palace." He said, looking out the door and smiling slightly, "The palace is no longer my safe haven."
"Your Highness, your Majesty is fine. Even in the future... the Queen Mother will still be here." Dr. Li said.
"So what? With the Queen Mother here, can it last longer than a noble concubine? Can it last longer than Prince Ping?" Prince Jin'an smiled and looked at Dr. Li again, "How about Sir Li, can you think of a way?"
Doctor Li glanced at him.
"Your Highness, I am an imperial physician. I only know how to treat illnesses and save people. I know nothing else." He said slowly.
The prince of Jin'an County laughed.
"Yes, I know, otherwise you wouldn't have saved me in the first place." He said, "Why can't so many people save me?"
Dr. Li interrupted him with a hurried exclamation.
"These are two different things." He glared and said, "Your disease is not curable, and no one else can cure it except me."
Prince Jin'an laughed again.
"Yes, I know, I know Mr. Li is kind-hearted and has good medical skills." He said.
Looking at the laughing young man in front of him, Doctor Li felt a little mixed.
I have grown so big without realizing it.
Father...Father...save me...
The little kid lying on the couch seemed to appear in front of him again, and he couldn't bear to let go of that murmuring voice.
"Maybe now that you have gone far away, everything will be fine." Dr. Li suddenly said.
"Maybe." Prince Jin'an smiled and picked up the tea bowl in front of him, "But I don't like maybe, this kind of thing where others make the decision and I can only wait."
"There's always a half chance..." Dr. Li said anxiously.
"Is there any chance that the noble concubine and Prince Ping won't kill me?" Prince Jin'an suddenly raised his voice and shouted.
There was no trace of smile on his face, and a cold wind suddenly swirled in the room that was originally warm as spring.
He is the king of the county...
Although he is a skinny, chicken-like person who has experienced life and death several times in front of him, he is in the end a nobleman of royal blood.
Doctor Li's expression froze.
"Your Highness, be careful what you say." He bowed his head and saluted.
"I'm not going to wait and hope and beg them to give me this opportunity."
The young man's cold voice fell from the top of his head.
"I'm scared."
Suddenly the voice changed and the atmosphere changed again.
Fear?
Doctor Li raised his head in astonishment.
The young man looked outside the door. The February afternoon sunlight flickered in and out of the room.
"Yes, I was very scared. That night when I stood outside the palace gate and looked at the dark palace city, I was very scared."
Doctor Li was silent for a moment.
"Are you more scared than the risks you will face a hundred times more powerful than the Night Wolves when you leave the capital?" He asked in a low voice.
"Yes." Prince Jin'an nodded, "I have anticipated what I will face when I leave the capital. The most important thing is that I can hold my own sword. When a sword comes, I can block it. When an arrow comes, I can block it.
I greet people when they come, I kill when they kill me, but at that night and that moment, facing Miyagi, even if I had a knife, it was of no use at all, and there was nothing I could do except wait."
Doctor Li sighed softly.
"So, I'm scared."
Prince Jin'an spread his hands, shook off his long sleeves and stood up.
"What I'm afraid of is not danger. I'm too familiar with danger. It turns out that what I'm really afraid of is the powerlessness in the face of danger."
"So I would rather go out of the palace and face those risky killing attacks than sit quietly in the capital, waiting until one day to be brought into the palace in confusion and look at Prince Ping on the throne."
"When I was five years old, I was brought into the palace in a daze. I watched my father and mother leave in a daze. I was liked by them in a daze, and rejected by them in a daze."
"This time, I don't want to wait and watch in a daze. It seems that I have the final say. It seems that I can take the lead in some things. But those are small things. In the end, they are things that are placed on others. Once something happens, such as that one
Late, I am not even qualified to enter the palace."
Having said this, Prince Jin'an smiled again and looked at Dr. Li.
"She was the one who asked me if I felt I could make the decision? Look, just like four years ago, it was she who was reminding me and saving me. It was just her, not someone else."
Doctor Li's expression changed for a moment.
"Your Highness." He raised his head and said, "Can Mrs. Cheng help you?"
"Help me? She has been helping me, oh, no, she has been helpful to many people." Prince Jin'an smiled and said, "The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention."
"Your Highness, you know what I'm talking about!" Dr. Li frowned and said, "If she can do something, such as some of the godly chatter she is good at, so that the noble concubine and the new emperor will not harm you..."
Prince Jin'an laughed again, stopped laughing and looked at Dr. Li and shook his head again.
"Master Li, I told you that you have a kind heart." He said.
Doctor Li was a little embarrassed by his look.
"I'm kind-hearted, not stupid." He said anxiously, "I don't want her to change the person who has hurt you twice and was caught by you for murdering your own brother. I just want to use something to scare her.
Stop them and prevent them from doing this."
Prince Jin'an smiled slightly.
"The safest, most reassuring and most shocking thing in the world is death." He said, "There is only death."
This time his voice was calm and there was a smile on his face, but Doctor Li still felt chilled in his heart.
"This is my business."
The young man's voice continued.
"If I need her help, I will go and tell her, tell her clearly. As for this matter, it involves my grievances and life and death with others, it has nothing to do with her, and she doesn't need to know, let alone
If you need help with anything, just like you, Mr. Li."
I, Dr. Li, looked up at him.
"I want to live, so I ask you to treat me and prescribe medicine. That's all. It's only my business." Prince Jin'an said with a smile, "These things have nothing to do with you. This life and death have nothing to do with you."
You have nothing to do with it, otherwise it would be unfair to you."
Doctor Li looked at him for a moment and sighed softly.
"Your Highness, there is no fairness in this world." He whispered.
"Yes." Prince Jin'an said, "In my heart."
Doctor Li looked at him for a moment, then finally let out a long sigh and leaned down to salute.
"Then today, Li Xiu will send His Highness a happy journey and victory." He said, paused, "Everything goes well."
After convincing the emperor about going to Maoping Road, it was easy for others. What was a little more troublesome was the arrangement for Prince Qing.
"How can you stay in Prince Qing's Mansion?" the Queen Mother said, raising her hands to wipe away her tears.
"Your Majesty." The Prince of Jin'an County knelt down next to the Queen Mother with a sincere expression, "He is already Prince Qing, so naturally he will stay in Prince Qing's Mansion."
"Don't tell the Ai family this!" The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows and said, "He is Prince Qing and the sixth brother of the Ai family."
"Your Majesty." The Prince of Jin'an County hugged her arm, "If your Majesty really loves Brother Six, let him stay outside the palace. King Qing built a grand building for the boy and built a large school ground for him to play.
There are hundreds of people playing with him."
"That's nonsense. Isn't there one in the palace?" the Queen Mother raised her eyebrows and asked anxiously.
"Your Majesty, he is at home outside the palace." Prince Jin'an said.
The Queen Mother was even more anxious.
"Who in this palace dares to make him feel uncomfortable!" she said angrily, raising her hand to break away from Prince Jin'an.
The prince of Jin'an County insisted on holding on.
"My Majesty, Prince Qing doesn't want to make others uncomfortable!" He said, "My Majesty, Prince Qing doesn't know anything. It's all the same to him whether he's in the palace, in Prince Qing's Mansion, or in the wilderness. Madam,
They are all the same, empress, but others are different. My sisters are all grown up. Concubine An is pregnant. Your Majesty is busy with state affairs. Concubine An, you have too many things to worry about. Prince Qing cannot make any more trouble."
The Queen Mother immediately burst into tears again.
"My son, how could he cause trouble?" she said, trying to shake off Prince Jin'an's hand but slowly lowered it.
Yes, the princesses are growing up, spring is a good time for running, jumping and playing, Concubine An is pregnant and getting heavier, the emperor is sick again, and there are worries about government affairs...
"Empress, as long as you are here, Prince Qing will be able to live a happy life wherever he is." King Jin'an continued, shaking the Queen Mother's arm, "What's more, the child also invited Mrs. Cheng."
Lady Cheng?
"What do you want her to do?" The Queen Mother frowned and said, "She doesn't want to cure Prince Qing."
"Your Majesty, it's not that she refuses to be cured, it's that she can't be cured." Prince Jin'an corrected him.
The Queen Mother snorted.
"So what do you want her to do?" she said.
"Although she can't be cured, she does know some medical skills, and she has some magical skills..." Prince Jin'an said with a smile.
Before he could finish speaking, the Queen Mother pouted.
"You mean you can control the house, right?" she said.
The prince of Jin'an County laughed.
"Your Majesty, a gentleman doesn't say anything about his strange power and his deranged spirit." He said with a smile.
"The Ai family is a woman, not a gentleman." the Queen Mother said.
"Your Majesty, don't make the child laugh." Prince Jin'an said with a smile.
The Queen Mother glared at him, and finally reached out to point his forehead angrily.
"You," she said, "I don't know who you learned this weird temper from. You can't live a good life, but you have to work hard."
"Your Majesty said that the child has followed the Queen Mother." Prince Jin'an said seriously.
The Queen Mother finally smiled and patted him. After smiling, she pondered for a moment and turned to look at the palace attendants standing aside.
"Take a few people to Prince Qing's Mansion," she said, "to look after Prince Qing for the Ai family."
The palace officials immediately saluted and said yes.
So, there is nothing to be reluctant to part with, only whether it is worth it or not.
Watching the Empress Dowager recruiting people and listening to the instructions to the palace people, Prince Jin'an always had a smile on his lips, seemingly frozen. (To be continued)
