Spirit of the Phoenix: 78. Death

When the anti-theft ratio is 70%, it takes 36 hours. If you buy enough, try to refresh. Well, you little prince, before you left, I gave you thousands of warnings, but you ignored them all.

"The choice of life and death, how can you not give her some confidence? She is not a girl who grew up in the palace, she just wants to survive. She won't accept benefits without feelings." Tai'an lowered his voice and chattered endlessly, couldn't hold back for a while, stretched out his little hand and squeezed the little prince's chest hard.

The little prince was in pain, and the anger in his heart was lifted up by the two women one behind the other. He took a deep breath, but his face was still full of warmth and kindness.

"At the Peony Flower Banquet. You are wearing a crimson palace dress, with a goose-yellow peony in your high bun." He tried hard to recall what Tai'an had told him, and forced himself to follow her words. Every word recalls the past.

"After Taifu promised to get married, I will never look forward to your big marriage." The little prince considered every word, looking at Pei Ansu's expression, "You are well-known, and you are the Taifu's beloved daughter. I also promised to the Taifu personally that I will treat you wholeheartedly and honestly."

When he said this, he paused slightly. Pei Ansu was a little impatient, raised his eyebrows slightly as if moved, and gradually raised his head.

"His Royal Highness is unparalleled, and the posture of a slave willow, I am afraid that there will be a match." She said cheerfully.

This trick uses retreat as an advance. Tai'an praised in his heart, and felt a sense of sympathy for each other. She got into trouble when she was young, and she always loved to demote herself to nothing, and then took advantage of the guilt of others to make her demands as a matter of course.

Well, but Pei Ansu's morality is still low, and he is a little restless, Tai'an thought.

Sure enough, before the prince finished his sentence, Pei Ansu couldn't hold back his temper and continued, "Although peonies are beautiful, they are flowers and plants after all. Plants are ruthless, and can be toppled by the wind. I am a slave, so why don't you do it yourself?" Choosing a name, I think it will make a good story?"

Tsk tsk, Tai'an raised his eyebrows.

Grass and trees are ruthless, but two grasses are still of one mind. This is Zhuo Wenjun's "Nagato Fu".

Pei Ansu is not very young, but she is quite ambitious. I want to be a queen, but I don't want to be Gillian.

This is life hanging by a thread, and I still don't forget to ask the little prince for benefits.

As a man, he never likes to be asked for favors, let alone the little prince is the future king. Tai'an looked optimistic, quietly waiting for the little prince's response.

The little prince's face remained calm, his fists were slowly clenched under his sleeves, and after a long while, he drew out the yellow dagger from his waist.

What's going on? Tai'an was shocked. Even if the words are not speculative, it is not enough to reach out and stab someone.

"Calm down, calm down, you!" She poked her head out of "The Precepts of the Ancestors" again, and grabbed his chest hard.

The little prince was so angry that his teeth itch, but he could only hold back, and secretly scolded Tai'an thousands of times in his heart.

He moved his fingertips slightly, and lightly stroked the thin blade of Qu Huang's dagger, and a drop of blood dripped from his thumb, which dripped onto the bluestone board in front of the mourning hall.

"Haiyue can lean, and promises are unwavering. Since I believe it is you, I will live up to it in this life." Standing in front of the black curtain, the little prince said word by word.

And Tai'an, who was hiding in his arms, also clearly heard the promise he made in front of the white candle and black coffin at this moment.

Less than one month after the Taifu's burial, Pei Laoshu, the mistress of the Pei family, committed suicide.

Zhongshu ordered Pei Junzhi to suddenly attack him in the court hall, pointing out that on the day the crown prince asked for condolence, he had misconducted words and deeds in Pei's family and disrespected the grand tutor before the mourning hall.

The words "the crown prince loses his morals", together with the cause of Taifu Peixian's blood splashing Jinluan's suicide, were brought up again. Above the court hall, Grand Sima Chen Keling stood still, Qingliu and the party Wu pressed down on their knees for half of the hall, just like the boundary between Chu and Han.

The emperor was at a loss, and asked Da Sima for help for a while, and excused himself for having a splitting headache and being unable to make a decision.

Prince Lu Rui has not yet married and took office, so he is not allowed to participate in politics, nor has the ability to defend himself above the court.

The matter of impeachment is getting worse and worse, and it seems to be a foregone conclusion.

However, the reversal of the situation was only an instant.

Pei Ansu, the youngest daughter of the crown prince and Taifu Pei Xianzhi, knelt down and beat the Dengwen drum at the gate of the palace.

For three consecutive years, Da Sima's birthday banquet was presided over by the queen and held in the palace. The little prince remembers very clearly that at last year's birthday banquet, the queen empress slowly walked down from the phoenix seat and presented the Infinite Life Sutra that she had copied by herself: "Today's family banquet, there is no queen in the palace, only a filial daughter. Adults are as blessed as the East Sea, and a hundred years of peace!"

The queen is so filial and docile, even the emperor sitting on the seat has a very low profile.

During the banquet, Da Sima felt extremely happy, and he ate happily, and couldn't help but drink a few more glasses of wine. He was already fat and afraid of heat, and he was sweating profusely after eating. Regardless of the empress' persuasion, he insisted on taking off the big clothes he was wearing outside.

By the Taiye Pool in early spring, the lanterns are hung high, and the evening wind blowing on the water brings a cool breeze. The red-faced Da Sima got drunk and was sent back to the mansion by the empress.

A few days later, news spread to the palace, saying that after the birthday party, Da Sima slept for a full day, and did not get up until the evening of the second day. But after getting up, Da Sima, who has always been in good health, had weakness in his limbs, his whole body was sore, and his elbows and knees were red and swollen as if they had been burned.

The queen empress was so anxious that she sent several imperial physicians to visit her.

The several imperial physicians have different seniority, but they came back with the same statement: "Da Sima has a wide body and a fat body, and he caught a cold after drinking and suffered from rheumatism. That's it."

The empress felt relieved, and searched all over the world for the best medicinal materials to nourish Da Sima's body.

A four-meter-long Huaitong plant was dug out in Lingnan. It was as thick as a wrist and entangled in a group like a giant python. body.

Fujian paid tribute to a three-year-old dry grass flower, covered with rusty-brown fluff, shaped like a newborn fetus. Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces also entered the palace with a hundred-year-old Shouwu, which looked like a green dragon. He sent people to the mansion of Da Sima.

Sacred medicinal materials were given in a steady stream, and the queen was extremely generous, showing pure filial piety everywhere.

The emperor, who had always been cowardly, only dared to laugh on the bright side, and repeatedly praised the empress for being polite and sensible.

But the emperor's heart was bleeding, so he yelled at the little prince in private: "If we eat a mouthful of rice, Da Sima will eat a mouthful of gold."

At that time, the prince was still a vegetarian for "cleaning the intestines and maintaining health", and he was as thin as a bamboo pole. Hearing this, he could only shake his head and smile wryly.

What can the emperor and prince do if they live under the fence? The little prince had never even seen the appearance of the tribute, and only learned of such a precious "treasure" from the words of the servants in the East Palace.

This year coincides with the 60th birthday of Da Sima, and the queen wanted to make a big fuss.
