The news that Emperor Yunqing was seriously ill did not reach outside the palace in the end. The queen ordered the palace gates to be closed, and no one was allowed to leave the palace to deliver the news. Even the place where the prince and the second prince lived was heavily guarded. The queen can trust her two sons, but she cannot trust the people around her two sons.

The queen, who usually doesn't take much care, showed her courage at this critical moment. When she married the emperor, his position as prince was in jeopardy, but she still stayed with him without any regrets. She has been in trouble with the emperor for many years, and at this age, she is still the woman he trusts most, which shows her ability and broadmindedness.

Since the imperial doctor entered the Great Moon Palace, he never had the chance to come out. If any medicine was needed, people around the queen would personally **** the imperial doctor there, and the entire imperial hospital was also sealed off.

An hour later, Emperor Yunqing woke up. He saw the queen sitting by the bed and crying. He wanted to sit up, but he couldn't use any strength in his body: "Queen, what's wrong with you?"

"Your Majesty, are you okay?" When the Queen saw Emperor Yun Qing waking up, her face showed joy, and she quickly waved to the imperial doctor to come over and take the Emperor's pulse.

It was only then that Emperor Yun Qing noticed that something was wrong with the situation, but at this moment his mind was in a mess and he even stuttered when speaking: "Queen, why are there so many people around me?"

"Your Majesty, I am here to diagnose your pulse."

"Step back, I'm fine, I don't need to diagnose my pulse," Emperor Yun Qing didn't like people saying that he had a physical problem, so he got angry and wanted to curse, but the words came out intermittently, "I, I don't need to diagnose my pulse, you guys All these imperial doctors, please leave me!"

The queen saw that Emperor Yun Qing's expression was distorted and even his voice was a little unclear. She felt something was not good in her heart. She gently held the emperor's hand and said, "Your Majesty, let the imperial doctor check on you. Okay, just let me feel at ease, okay?"

Seeing the queen's tearful appearance, Emperor Yun Qing gradually suppressed the anger in his heart. The two had been married for so many years, and the queen had shed tears in front of him only a handful of times. He glanced at the imperial doctor standing next to the queen, a person whom both he and the queen trusted, so Emperor Yun Qing did not speak again.

Seeing that his attitude softened, the queen turned to look at the imperial doctor.

The imperial doctor stepped forward cautiously, saluted Emperor Yun Qing, and then put his hand on his wrist. Then he carefully pinched his arm and looked at his pupils. After reading, the imperial doctor turned to wink at the queen, and then said to the emperor, "Your Majesty, your current physical condition requires rest."

"Take rest and rest. You have always known how to let me rest." Emperor Yunqing scolded, "I am the emperor, how can I rest?"

The queen did not expect that Emperor Yun Qing would lose his temper for no apparent reason, so she calmed him down in a soft voice. After he fell asleep, the queen covered him with a quilt, walked outside and asked the imperial doctor who had just examined Emperor Yun Qing's pulse: "How is your majesty's health?"

"Back to the Queen, I am incompetent," the imperial doctor knelt in front of the Queen, "Your Majesty has worked too hard and may have suffered a stroke."

"What did you say?" The queen couldn't bear such a blow, and her body shook, "Maybe it can be cured?"

"Wei Chen can only try his best to use acupuncture to clear His Majesty's acupuncture points. If His Majesty cooperates, it is possible to stand up, sit down and walk." The imperial doctor said very tactfully, "I'm afraid that Your Majesty will not cooperate with Wei Chen treatment."

The room became quiet. The queen looked at the swaying palace lantern outside the window and nodded slowly: "I understand."

"Someone is coming! Someone is coming!"

At this moment, the queen suddenly heard Emperor Yun Qing's roar. She turned around and hurried into the house. Seeing her majesty's face pale and his eyes red, she grabbed his hand and said, "Your majesty, what's wrong with you?"

"Someone is peeping at me outside, go and kill him!" Emperor Yunqing pointed to the shadow of the tree outside, "Queen, please send someone to take a look."

The queen wanted to say that it was just the shadow of a tree, but seeing his crazy look, she could only nod her head and said: "I'll go right away."

The guards had no choice but to chop down the tree to convince the emperor that the villain had been captured. But Emperor Yunqing didn't sleep well that night. He woke up from time to time, talking about Prince Consort, Cheng Anbo, etc., with a look of panic on his face.

The Queen's palms felt cold. She knew who the Consort and Cheng Anbo were in His Majesty's words, but just because she knew, she felt a constant chill in her heart.

The eldest princess’s consort took great care of His Majesty back then. His Majesty was plotted by the second prince and there was not enough prey during the autumn hunting, so the consort secretly gave him his prey. His Majesty was ostracized in the court, and his consort also supported him. As for Rong Xia's father, Cheng Anbo, he was His Majesty's companion when he was a boy. He accompanied and helped His Majesty in his most difficult times.

Later, Cheng Anbo died young and his eldest son was gone. Rong Xia was the only one left in the huge Cheng Anbo mansion. She always thought that His Majesty was missing old friendship, so she took special care of Rong Xia.

But if the truth is like this, why is His Majesty full of panic when he mentions these two people? Your Majesty...what exactly did you do to these two people?

The queen sat beside the dragon bed all night. It was not until dawn that she stood up stiffly and looked at the bits of morning light coming through the window. "Someone, go and invite the prince."

"Yes."

After burning the incense, Emperor Yunqing woke up. He looked at the hazy light outside and thought that he should go to court. There was a big court meeting today. Then he still couldn't move, and he didn't even have the slightest feeling in his body.

"Queen, what's wrong with me?"

The queen lifted the curtain, walked to the bed and sat down, gently covering the back of his palm with her hand, "Your Majesty, you are not feeling well. How about not going to court today?"

"What happened to me, where is Wang De?" The emperor looked not very good, and he seemed not to believe even the queen.

"Your Majesty, this servant is here." Wang De walked in from outside. He looked haggard and seemed to have not slept all night.

"Come and tell me, what's wrong with me?"

Wang De knelt in front of the emperor and empress, his forehead touched the cold ground, but he did not dare to say a word.

"You bitch, you don't even listen to me, what use do I need from you?" When Emperor Yun Qing saw him like this, he immediately became furious and said, "Come here!"

"Your Majesty," the queen interrupted him and gently stroked his chest, "the imperial doctor said that you should not be angry now."

Emperor Yunqing glared at the queen: "Then tell me, why can't I move my body?"

The queen looked at this superior man, who had become so embarrassed overnight, her eyes were sore, and she turned away, not daring to let the emperor see her tears.

"I..." Emperor Yunqing gradually came to his senses. He looked at his trembling shoulders and did not dare to look at his queen. "Am I having a stroke?"

"Your Majesty..." the queen wiped away the tears from her eyes, "the imperial doctor said that as long as you take a good rest, you will be fine."

Emperor Yun Qing closed his eyes and tried to calm down after a long while: "Let someone tell Rong Xia, Zhou Bingan, Zhang Qihuai, and Zhao Weishen to enter the palace."

Rong Xia is the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, Zhou Bingan is the Minister of Ling, Zhang Qihuai is the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, and Zhao Weishen is the Minister of the Ministry of War. These people are all trustworthy in the heart of Emperor Yun Qing.

The queen quickly agreed.

As soon as the eunuchs who went to announce these adults left, the prince came in. He didn’t know what happened in the palace. After being surrounded by people in the east palace, he felt uneasy until he saw the two emperors and empresses. The man barely breathed a sigh of relief.

"Prince, Your Majesty is not feeling well today. You will temporarily help His Majesty supervise the country." The Queen did not mention how serious Emperor Yun Qing's illness was. "If you don't understand anything, you can come and ask His Majesty for advice."

"Father, what's wrong with you?" The prince was not excited when he heard that the prisoner was in charge. Instead, he looked at Emperor Yun Qing with concern, "It's because my son is unfilial and he didn't know that his father was unwell." His eyes flashed. Hong, looking at the emperor lying on the bed, felt extremely guilty.

"I have nothing to do. It's just that the imperial doctor said that I need to rest." The emperor spoke very slowly. He wanted to make his words sound clearer. "I summoned several important officials in the court. After you supervise the country, you must take good care of yourself." Don't be reckless when discussing state affairs with these adults."

"Father, my son and I are not half as good as you, how can we supervise the country?" The prince shook his head repeatedly and said, "Get better soon."

If the prince usually spoke like this, the emperor would only think that he was weak and incompetent, but at this time, he was extremely pleased with his son, because this son trusted him wholeheartedly and did not even care about the prisoner. Feeling happy, he gave the prince a few more instructions, some of which he was unwilling to say to the prince before.

When Wang De came in and said that several adults had arrived, the emperor asked the queen and the prince to help him sit up, and asked someone to tidy up his appearance. He barely maintained the majesty of the emperor before letting Wang De go. Xuan these people.

The mornings in April and May were not too cold, but the adults got out of bed in a hurry and even put on their clothes hastily. The adults were not very comfortable. And when they saw that there was a sentry every three steps and a post every five steps in the palace, and the guards all carried swords on their waists with their hands on the handles of the swords, they guessed that something might happen in the palace.

Rong Xia, the youngest of the four, walked last. The other three wanted to ask him a few questions, but under the surveillance of countless pairs of eyes around them, they could not turn back and speak, so they could only bite the bullet and came to the Big Moon Palace. outside.

The guards of Dayue Palace were even tighter. The four of them stood side by side under the eyes of the guards. Zhou Bingan turned his head and glanced at Rong Xia, but he didn't know that Rong Xia didn't even raise his eyelids. This indifference actually made him These veterans felt ashamed.

"Master Zhou, Master Rong, Master Zhao, Master Zhang, the emperor invites you." Wang De came out, saluted the four of them, and made a gesture of invitation.

"Thank you." Seeing Wang De's serious expression and even the corners of his mouth pursed tightly, Zhou Bingan complained secretly in his heart. This was not just a big deal, but probably a heinous one.

The four of them smelled a strong smell of medicine when they entered the room. The eunuchs and maids knelt throughout the room, the prince and the queen stood next to the dragon bed, and the emperor... was still sitting and lying down. Although he seemed to be in good spirits, his slightly unnatural expression, cloudy eyes and slightly crooked mouth made them sigh inwardly.

Your Majesty, this is not going well.

Jingting Palace.

Banhua woke up from her sleep, turned around and saw that it was still dark outside, and fell back into bed. But for some reason, she couldn't fall asleep even after tossing and turning on the bed. It wasn't until it got dark that she fell asleep in a daze.

"婳婳."

"婳婳."

Banhua opened her eyes, looked at the old man sitting by the bed, and immediately threw herself into her arms: "Grandma, why are you here?"

"Let me see you," the eldest princess lovingly stroked her head and said with a smile, "Grandma is very happy today."

Ban Hua Ni was in the arms of the eldest princess and asked curiously: "What are you happy about?"

The eldest princess smiled and said nothing, just patted her back gently, as if she was coaxing a little baby. Banhua felt that her grandmother's arms were soft and fragrant, and she felt groggy and wanted to fall asleep.

"I went back with your grandfather."

In a daze, she heard her grandmother say this.

Strange, didn’t my grandfather go to the west a long time ago? Why did my grandmother go back with my grandfather?

Go west?

Banhua suddenly opened her eyes, and it was already bright outside. She sat up from the bed, rubbed her brows with a wry smile. It’s true that she thinks about her every day and dreams every night. Yesterday at Duke Cheng’s residence, she heard the old Duke mention her grandmother, and she dreamed about her old man.

"Princess, are you awake?"

When Banhua heard the maid's voice, she clapped her hands.

The maids heard the clapping and came in carrying washing utensils. While Banhua was rinsing his mouth, Ruyi whispered: "Princess, someone came from the palace just now and asked the Duke to go to court."

Banhua spit out the water in his mouth, wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief and said, "Isn't my father still observing his filial piety?"

"My slave doesn't know," Ruyi shook her head, "But Madam said, when you wake up, go to the main courtyard."

"I understand," Banhua nodded. After changing her clothes and combing her hair, she took the maid to the main courtyard. She got up late, and Yinshi and Ban Heng were already sitting at the table. When she came in, Yinshi didn't let her salute and asked her to sit down directly.

"I'm afraid something big has happened in the palace." Mrs. Yin took a sip of tea and said to her two children, "You two have stayed at home peacefully and not gone out much in the past two days. Let's wait and see how things develop."

"What's going on?" Banhua looked around, but didn't see his father. "I just heard from Ruyi that someone from the palace announced that my father was going to court?"

"Yes," Mrs. Yin nodded, and then said, "Just now, the Minister of War sent someone to pass the news, saying that the palace is afraid that it will not be good, so we should pay more attention."

Zhao Weishen, Minister of the Ministry of War, had received favors from the Ban family in his early years. Although the two families had no contact on the surface in recent years, when big events happened in private, he would still send someone to secretly spread the news so that the Ban family would not know anything. , causing trouble and disaster.

However, although they both have the surname Zhao, Zhao Weishen has nothing to do with the Zhao Jia family who was assassinated. They are from different clans and different ethnic groups, but they just happen to have the same surname.

Ban Heng and Ban Hua nodded obediently when they heard this. Yin Shi smiled and said: "I don't want you to become cautious all of a sudden, but it's not too much to be careful. If only Zhao Shangshu's family spread the news, things may be worse. It's not that serious. However, before Zhao Shangshu, someone else sent news."

"Who is it?" What Banhua was thinking was that, except for some dudes who were not well-informed about their family, there were some people whose ancestors were military generals, but most of these people had no identity. It's too high. Even if you want to convey news to them, there won't be any news to convey.

"Your fiancé Rong Junpo," Ms. Yin took out a piece of paper and put it in front of Banhua, "Take a look."

The writing on the note was very sloppy, with only six words in total, as if it had been written in a hurry.

There is something going on in the palace, so be careful.

Banhua took a look at the note and put it on a burning candle. After the paper was burned and turned into ashes, she said: "Mother, what should we do now?" I don’t even know.”

Yin smiled: "You're right, we don't know anything."

Ban Heng looked at Yinshi and then at Banhua, confused.

One moment you know, another moment you don’t know, and another moment you have to be cautious. What does this mean?

Yeah, what does this mean?

Ban Huai, who was dug out of his bed, stood in the hall in a daze, with those familiar dandies standing beside him. But these dudes, even if they go to court on weekdays, they may not always be able to come. Why is everyone here today?

The other dandies were even more surprised than Ban Huai. Normally, Ban Huai didn't like to come to court. Now that he was carrying filial piety, he had even more reasons not to come to court. Why did he come today? But now that they were in the court, it was not easy for them to ask. Ban Huai gestured to the superiors to let him come and said nothing.

The other dudes suddenly realized that it was His Majesty’s intention.

Half an hour later, His Majesty has not yet appeared. The courtiers were a little puzzled. This is half an hour later than the usual start time of the court meeting. Why hasn't His Majesty come out yet?

While everyone was speculating, Rong Xia and four other people appeared. All four of them looked solemn and had not said a word since entering the palace. This made the other ministers suspicious and confused.

"His Royal Highness is here!"

Everyone saw the prince wearing a brocade robe embroidered with dragon patterns and a crown with five dragons and beads on his head, walking in with the eunuch. This **** and the courtiers all know him as Wang De, the **** in charge of His Majesty.

"My father has an order to oversee the country." The prince walked to the palace. He did not sit on the dragon chair, but sat on the deputy seat below the dragon chair. "My father is not feeling well and needs to rest for a few days." Day. So I have to leave it to you all for the next few days."

His Majesty is unwell, to the extent that he wants the prince to supervise the country? !

"I see His Highness the Crown Prince, the Crown Prince is a thousand years old."

Yes, they are ministers anyway. It doesn't make any difference whether they are helping the emperor or the prince. As long as the prince has a normal mind and doesn't go crazy for no reason, they, the ministers, can tolerate it.

The only thing that makes people feel subtle is that at this critical juncture, the four people summoned by His Majesty are all people who have nothing to do with the Yan Party or the Stone Party. It can be seen that Yan Hui and Shi Chonghai have lost their status in His Majesty's heart. Otherwise, why did His Majesty only summon Cheng Anbo and others for such an important matter?

The prince's personality is relatively gentle, and his foundation is unstable, so it is inevitable that his words and actions in the court will be greatly compromised. Fortunately, Yan Dang and Shi Dang had been severely hit before, and their influence in the court was no longer what it used to be. In addition, Rong Xia and others were busy, so the court meeting was concluded successfully, and the prince even won the favor of many officials. praise.

As soon as the court meeting ended, the prince rushed back to Dayue Palace and told Emperor Yunqing everything that happened in the hall today. The ministers reported all the important events and even gave many memorials to him. Emperor Yunqing read it once.

Emperor Yunqing was very satisfied with his respectful attitude, and the original dissatisfaction with the prince gradually disappeared.

This good mood disappeared without a trace after hearing the servants say that the second prince had a conflict with the guards guarding him. Emperor Yun Qing said coldly, "Don't worry about him, just let him make trouble."

"Father," the prince hesitated, "the second brother is just reckless. As long as someone explains it to him properly, he will definitely understand."

"Explanation?" Emperor Yun Qing said dissatisfied, "He is already twenty, and he is still so ignorant. How can he really make me angry to death?"

"But..."

"You don't have to speak for him anymore," Emperor Yun Qing was so angry that half of his face froze, "From my perspective, half of my problems are caused by his anger!"

The prince opened his mouth and looked at Emperor Yun Qing's face twisted with anger. He did not dare to provoke him any more, so he had to continue reading the memorial to divert Emperor Yun Qing's attention.

"Master Rong," Master Zhou and Rong Xia walked out of the palace gate together and whispered to him, "Your Majesty's health is probably not very good."

Rong Xia sighed: "Your Majesty is the son of God. With the blessing of God, nothing serious will happen to you."

Master Zhou knew that he was just talking, so he smiled and said, "I am also looking forward to it."

Rong Xia turned to look at Mr. Zhou and said seriously: "Your Majesty, nothing will happen to your health."

Master Zhou was stunned for a moment, then looked away, "Master Rong is right."

"Master Zhou, Jun Po." When Ban Huai saw the two of them, he patted the horse underneath him and asked him to catch up as soon as possible. Rong Xia turned around and saw that it was him. He quickly reined in the reins to prevent the horse from going any further. When Ban Huai came closer, he was half a horse behind Ban Huai and said, "Uncle."

Ban Huai yawned. He was forced to get up early in the morning. His energy was not much better. "How is your majesty?"

Master Zhou glanced at Rong Xia and said nothing.

Rong Xia whispered: "Your Majesty is suffering from a stroke and needs to rest."

Stroke?

Ban Huai was secretly surprised. This problem is difficult to cure. It can range from inflexible hands and feet to paralysis in bed. No wonder the prince is allowed to supervise the country. How can an emperor who has suffered a stroke sit high in the temple?

Zhou Bing'an next to him was even more surprised than Ban Huai. He didn't expect Rong Xia to tell Ban Huai about this. Wasn't he afraid that Ban Huai would be unable to hide his words and bring him trouble?

When they parted ways, Zhou Bingan saw Rong Xia following Ban Huai in one direction, and it suddenly dawned on him that Rong Xia really treated Ban Huai as his father-in-law. Is Princess Fule really so charming that she actually made Rong Xia do such a thing?

He looked up at the sun hanging in the sky and shook his head secretly. There were spring thunder last night, and the sun was shining brightly today. The weather was really unpredictable.

It is rare for Ban Huai to take the initiative to invite Rong Xia to visit him. This is a treatment that Rong Xia will rarely get again after getting engaged to Ban Hua. So when Ban Huai invited him to visit today, he agreed without hesitation.

His future father-in-law said that men should be thick-skinned when pursuing the woman of their dreams, so he is learning from his father-in-law.

"I have met the master and Duke Cheng." When the concierges of the Ban family saw the two of them, they bowed and led the horse. They were attentive and enthusiastic. Several young men surrounded the two. , after sending the two people through the door, he bowed and backed away.

This is also a major characteristic of the servants of the Ban family, that is, they are particularly enthusiastic about their hosts and guests. This enthusiasm gives people the feeling that all the servants are looking forward to his arrival.

Rong Xia has been to many people's homes, and there are few who are as attentive and polite as Ban's concierge.

"Let's go inside and talk," Ban Huai patted Rong Xia on the shoulder and took Rong Xia directly to the second door. However, before the two of them entered, a servant had already gone to report to the Yin family so that the Yin family could be prepared.

"Who?" Banhua was sitting in Yin's courtyard listening to a book when she heard a servant coming to report, "Who do you think is here too?"

"Uncle Rong."

"He," Banhua sat back softly and said to the female storyteller, "Since it's Uncle Rong, it's okay. You can continue talking."

When Mrs. Yin heard this, she glanced at her: "You are becoming more and more unruly. When Uncle Rong comes in, he will see you still listening to people's stories. What will it look like?"

"He is different from others," Banhua took a piece of fruit with a silver skewer and ate it, then wiped the corners of his mouth and said, "There are some scholars in the world who are sour scholars who can't explain it, but there are some scholars who are generous. Sticking to vulgar conventions, he..." At this point, she blinked, "Probably he is a person who doesn't stick to trivial matters."

"He doesn't stick to trivial matters, it's because he is generous," Yin said with a wave of her hand, asking the storyteller to step back, "but that doesn't mean our family can't be ignorant of etiquette."

After all, the Yin family didn't understand Rong Xia's nature well enough, so she acted more carefully than Banhua.

Banhua wanted to say that there was no need to be polite with Rong Xia, but she swallowed her words when faced with her mother's beautiful eyes.

What my mother said is not unreasonable.
