The only marriageable princess in Daxia now is Jin Yao. The older princesses are married, while the younger princesses are still underage.
So when I heard that the King of Xiliang wanted to marry a princess, she was the only one.
Seeing Princess Jin Yao rushing in, the prince frowned: "Didn't I say not to disturb my father?"
Princess Jin Yao said with a sullen face: "I know about the King of Xiliang."
The prince was even more displeased. He glanced at the inner room and saw that the emperor was sleeping. He didn't wake up even after he called him twice.
"Don't talk about this here." He whispered, "Father, don't get angry, otherwise your condition will get worse. Jin Yao, you are older now, and you should be sensible."
Princess Jin Yao smiled sadly: "Brother Prince, is this all you have to say to me?"
Ever since her father fell ill, she had seen the prince's indifference towards her brothers and sisters, but at this moment it was still beyond her imagination. She thought she could at least have a word of comfort - after so many years of brother and sister, she was still raised by the queen.
, often followed him and called her Prince Brother, and he also used to greet her with sincerity and care.
Are they all fake? After being fake for so long, there should be some truth.
The prince sighed softly, covered up his impatience, and said softly: "Jin Yao, it's my brother who is sorry for you. I have been really tired recently. My father is like this, my sixth brother is like that, and now the King of Xiliang is here again.
Come."
He reached out and touched Princess Jin Yao's shoulder.
"Don't worry, I will find a way."
Princess Jin Yao avoided his hand and said: "Your Highness, I am not here to see my father. Of course I know I cannot tell my father about this matter. I am here to see you."
That's it. The prince motioned to her: "Come, sit down, listen to me and tell you this matter carefully -"
Princess Jin Yao also refused to sit down and said: "No need to elaborate, Your Highness, I am willing to go to Xiliang——"
The prince looked surprised, but before he spoke, Princess Jin Yao waved her hand.
"——Let me personally lead the troops to tell the King of Xiliang what it means to be a minister."
The prince laughed: "Don't talk nonsense."
Princess Jin Yao clenched her hands: "I'm not talking nonsense? With General Iron Mask gone, our Daxia can't be bullied by a little Xiliang King? Let him know? The princess of Daxia is not for marriage, she can fight with him.
.”
The prince smiled: "You have been playing for a few days and you feel that you can do anything?" You are not interested in appeasing her anymore? He waved his hand, "Okay? Why don't you go back first? I'm here to handle this, so you don't have to worry.
.”
Princess Jin Yao wanted to say something, but Doctor Hu walked in from the outside with a box of golden needles.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince," he said, glancing at Princess Jin Yao and not exiting. "I'm going to give His Majesty the needle."
The prince also took the opportunity to ignore Jin Yao and asked Doctor Hu: "Why is my father worse today than yesterday? Has he been sleeping?"
Doctor Hu said: "The medicine has taken effect. After I perform the acupuncture, Your Majesty will wake up and he will definitely be better than yesterday."
The prince told him to go quickly? Doctor Hu went in, and the prince looked at Princess Jin Yao again.
"You go back first," he said. "It's already chaotic enough, don't you want to make it more chaotic? Not for me, but for my father? For this Great Xia."
Princess Jin Yao looked at him and asked suddenly: "Brother Prince? Do you dare not, or do you not want to?"
The prince's expression changed: "What did you say?"
Princess Jin Yao smiled: "If it were my father, or any prince, even a coward like Fifth Brother, upon hearing King Xiliang's request, the first thought would be to be angry, and the second thought would be to give Xiliang
The king has taught me a lesson, but what about you? Even now, you are still saying wait, wait, wait - you don’t even say a harsh word, and you don’t show any anger.”
The prince's face was livid: "Jin Yao, the reason why you can point your fingers here now is because your father's daughter is the princess of Daxia. Since you are a princess and enjoy the honor of the royal family, you must behave like a princess, because
The King of Xiliang just asked for marriage, and he came here to make trouble. I tell you today, let alone the important affairs of the court, even your marriage, it is not your turn to speak - "
Princess Jin Yao was not afraid at all: "My father promised me that my marriage would be my decision. I will marry only if I want to."
The prince said coldly: "Then do you want to ask your father now? Are you going to tell your father now that you have the final say in your marriage?"
Before Princess Jinyao shouted, Doctor Hu in the inner room shouted, "Your Highness, Your Majesty is awake."
The prince's first thought was that it was too late to wake up.
The thought flashed through his mind and he saw Princess Jin Yao rushing towards the inner room.
Damn girl! But it doesn’t matter if she wakes up. The emperor can’t speak either. It’s best if this damn girl faints from anger again.
The prince did not stop and followed him in.
"Father." Princess Jin Yao threw herself beside the bed and looked at the emperor who opened his eyes, tears rolling down her face, "Jin Yao hasn't seen you for a long time."
There were tears in the emperor's eyes, and he stretched out his hand to Jin Yao——
It does look better than yesterday. There are still tears in his eyes, which shows that he is very conscious. The prince thought to himself, and softly called "Father——"
As soon as his call came out, he heard the emperor say "A Yao——"
The voice was hoarse and low, but it passed into the ears clearly. The prince's voice stopped suddenly, and then his eardrums were pierced by Princess Jinyao's surprised voice.
"Father! You can speak now!" Jin Yao grabbed the emperor's hand and cried loudly, crying and shouting, "Father, father, you are finally better."
The emperor also held her hand tightly, tears rolling down his eyes, but the next moment he looked at the prince: "Ah, I'd like to——"
The prince's ears were buzzing, and he stretched out his hand: "Father, are you okay? It's great."
But the emperor opened his mouth, but no other sound came out. Even the names of the two people he called out before became vague and hoarse again.
"What's going on?" Princess Jin Yao called the doctor.
The prince also looked at Doctor Hu, his eyes full of nervousness.
Doctor Hu said: "Princess, Prince, please rest assured. Your Majesty is getting better and can make sounds, which means the blockage has been resolved."
"What about speaking?" Princess Jin Yao asked urgently, "Is it okay for my father to speak?"
Doctor Hu said: "I still need a dose of medicine to completely restore my speech."
Princess Jin Yao urged: "Then give your father the medicine quickly."
The prince looked at Doctor Hu and said nothing.
Dr. Hu said a little apologetically: "The medicine has run out. I need to go home and refill it."
Going home? Princess Jin Yao stood up: "What medicine do you need? Is there any medicine in the palace?"
Doctor Hu said with a bit of pride: "It's really not available in the palace. It's a herb unique to the mountain behind my home."
The prince then spoke: "Then what do you think it is? I'll ask someone to get it for you quickly."
Doctor Hu saluted again: "Your Highness, this herb requires a unique picking method. If it is wrong, the effect will be lost. It is better for the grassroots to go there in person. Don't worry, Your Majesty, the condition has stabilized. I will leave the prescription.
The doctors will just take care of it."
So, the prince glanced at Princess Jin Yao, who nodded repeatedly: "Okay, go and come back quickly." After saying that, he knelt down by the bed again and held the emperor's hand, crying and laughing, "Father, please go and come back quickly."
Emperor, you will be fine soon."
The emperor nodded, held her hand tightly, and looked at the prince again: "Sincerely, sincerely——"
Unfortunately, he could only utter these two words. The prince looked at the emperor: "Father, don't worry, I will arrange for Doctor Hu to get the medicine right now." After saying that, he stopped looking at the emperor and looked at Eunuch Zhong again, asking him to arrange the final arrangements.
Reliable Praetorian escort.
After explaining this, the prince glanced at Princess Jinyao who was kneeling beside the bed. Princess Jinyao was asking the emperor if he wanted to drink water. The emperor jumped out of his mind to answer -
He did not call Princess Jin Yao away, but said softly: "Father is getting better, please, don't make father anxious."
Princess Jin Yao knew what he meant and said calmly: "Your Highness is worrying too much. I am also the daughter of my father, so I know the importance."
Look at this momentum, it's even more powerful than before, the prince sneered in his heart.
News of the emperor's improvement soon spread, and the virtuous concubines, concubines, concubines, concubines, princes, and married princesses came with their consorts.
Although they were still not allowed to enter the inner chamber for the emperor's rest, everyone could stand outside and hear the emperor occasionally say a word or two, and then shed tears of joy.
The important ministers of the court also came. When they saw the emperor who could speak out his voice, they felt as if a boulder had fallen to the ground. They even suggested to the prince that he should tell the emperor about the king of Xiliang's proposal to marry the princess and let the emperor make a judgment.
Although the emperor could only speak two words, for typing, one word was enough.
The prince shouted at them angrily and anxiously: "Your Majesty has just gotten better. Do you want His Majesty to be unable to say a word? Doctor Hu is not here now."
Zhang Yuanjing also denied them, so the important ministers gave up and decided to wait until Dr. Hu came back with the medicine. It wouldn't be too late to tell him that His Majesty had recovered.
The emperor's palace was more lively than before, not because the prince no longer stopped everyone from coming to see the emperor, but because after the emperor could speak, one or two words were enough to give orders.
Say "Ah Xiu——", and Chu Xiurong can go forward to see the prince.
Saying "Xu——", Concubine Xu rushed in from outside and knelt beside the bed, refusing to leave.
The prince felt that he could hardly squeeze in.
Night enveloped the imperial city, the emperor's palace was brightly lit, and there were eunuchs and maids coming in and out, mixed with Concubine Xu's voice, making it noisy.
Standing outside the palace, the night breeze that had turned from sultry to cool at some point blew in, making the prince feel much more comfortable.
"Your Highness." Fu Qing stood behind him quietly.
The prince looked at the darkness ahead and said calmly: "I don't want to see you again, Doctor Hu."
He didn't want to hear the emperor speak anymore.
Especially when I heard the emperor shout out the words "fish face" or "iron face" from his mouth again.
