The most romantic little emperor

Chapter 338 Life hangs by a thread

The moment Qin Hao stepped out of the Tai Chi Hall, his whole body was bathed in the sunshine. His original slight sadness changed, and a sense of heroism arose spontaneously. He opened his arms, as if he wanted to take in all the ups and downs in the world into his arms.

He laughed heartily and recited aloud: "All the past is gone, but the heroes of today are still to be seen."

The loud and deep voice, as if carrying an indescribable power, echoed in the square in front of the Tai Chi Hall for a long time, and drifted away to a farther place.

The imperial guards were all attracted by his bold voice and stopped to watch. Their eyes were all directed to the prince with extraordinary temperament, with admiration and worship on their faces. They were all conquered by the imperial aura emanating from him.

Elder Feng looked at Qin Hao's confident smile, with a look of gratification and admiration on his face, and murmured to himself: "Empress, did you see that? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has grown up. He already has all the qualities to become a great emperor. He will definitely become an emperor of all ages in the future."

"Your Highness, I finally found you."

A palace eunuch came running in breathlessly. It was Gao Lishi's godson Liu Jin. His face was full of anxiety and worry, as if something big was about to happen.

Qin Hao recognized the loyal eunuch at a glance, and a bad feeling suddenly surged in his heart. He hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed Liu Jin's arm, and asked nervously: "What happened? Tell me quickly!"

A tear flashed in Liu Jin's eyes, and his voice trembled a little: "Your Highness, it's not good, the emperor...his condition has worsened and he has fallen into a coma!"

Qin Hao's heart suddenly sank when he heard this, as if he was hit by a huge rock. He widened his eyes in disbelief, tightly grasped Liu Jin's shoulders, and asked anxiously: "What did you say? Why did my father's condition suddenly worsen? What happened?"

Liu Jin choked up and said, "I don't know the specific situation, but I heard that after the Eighth Prince paid his respects to the Emperor this morning, the Emperor's condition suddenly worsened and the imperial doctors were helpless. You should go see the Emperor quickly, it will be too late if you are late."

Qin Hao was panicking, and hurriedly said to Elder Feng beside him: "Er Feng, hurry! Send my brothers who haven't arrived in the capital to the Yangxin Palace as soon as possible, so that they can see our father for the last time. Anyone who dares to stop us will be killed without mercy!"

After saying this, he turned around abruptly, tiptoed, and rushed towards his father's bedroom like an arrow.

"Take care, Your Highness. I'll be back soon." Old Feng shouted at his back without hesitation.

At this moment, Qin Hao's heart was filled with worry and anxiety, and the figure of Emperor Taizong kept appearing in his mind. Although he was a person who traveled through time and space and the two had no relationship, those warm memories and loving eyes made him have a lot of good feelings towards this emperor.

He did not dare to slack off in the slightest and only wanted to rush to Emperor Taizong as soon as possible to protect him through his final moments.

The moment he stepped into the Palace of Tranquil Longevity, Qin Hao felt a murderous aura coming towards him.

The palace guards were as strict as a solid wall of iron and steel, with a guard every three steps and a guard every five steps. They surrounded the entire Hall of Mental Cultivation so tightly that not even a fly could get in.

Qin Hao's journey was smooth but also a bit heavy.

At this moment, many of the emperor's concubines had already rushed over after hearing the news, and Crown Princess Wang Yourong even hurried over with several sisters.

The brothers Qin Feng and Qin Yun paced anxiously at the door, with worry written all over their faces.

Along the way, many people came forward to greet Qin Hao, but he seemed not to hear them. He just nodded slightly and walked straight to Emperor Taizong's bedroom.

He came to Emperor Taizong's bedroom and saw the imperial doctors busy at work. Pharmacist Sun was also giving the emperor acupuncture, trying to pull him back from the brink of life and death.

Qin Hao stood quietly beside the bed, his eyes revealing a bit of complexity. Emperor Taizong looked pale, his eyes were closed, and he seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep.

After a long time, Pharmacist Sun finally put away the silver needle in his hand. He slowly stood up and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his long sleeves. Then he walked in front of Qin Hao and said helplessly: "Your Highness, I have done my best this time. The emperor's body is already exhausted. Even if my deceased master is resurrected, I am afraid it will be difficult to save him."

"All I can do now is to use silver needles to give the emperor a breath and temporarily maintain his life. When he wakes up next time, I'm afraid even the Great Luo Immortal will be unable to save him..."

Pharmacist Sun's words revealed a deep sense of powerlessness. He looked at Qin Hao with eyes full of heaviness and sadness.

Qin Hao nodded gently, his voice low and full of concern: "Doctor Sun, may I ask when my father will wake up? After waking up, how long will he have? I still have several brothers who are still on their way to Beijing. I wonder if the doctor can try to delay the time it takes for my father to wake up? I want him to die peacefully without any regrets."

Pharmacist Sun nodded slightly and said softly, "Your Highness, please make arrangements quickly! Time waits for no one, I will do my best."

Qin Hao was filled with gratitude when he heard this. He bowed to Pharmacist Sun and said respectfully, "Dr. Sun, thank you for your help."

Pharmacist Sun waved his hand and said calmly, "Your Highness, you are too kind. It is an honor for me to serve the Emperor and His Highness."

Qin Hao walked out of the room slowly, his steps steady but with a hint of heaviness. He folded his arms, his brows lowered, as if he was thinking about how to properly handle the next matter.

Qin Feng and Qin Yun, the two brothers, had been waiting outside the door for a long time. When they saw Qin Hao coming out, they immediately went forward to greet him. Their faces were full of concern and worry, and their voices were trembling a little: "Brother, how is our father now?"

Qin Hao's eyes swept across the two people's faces. His eyes were deep and calm, as if he could see into people's hearts. He did not answer their questions directly, but took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, as if to calm himself down.

After a long while, he said softly, "Wait for the other brothers to come back and see father for the last time together, so that he can leave peacefully! What we need to do now is to prepare for his afterlife."

Although his voice was calm, it revealed an indescribable heaviness and sorrow.

Qin Feng and Qin Yun's faces suddenly changed when they heard this, and a trace of grief flashed in their eyes. They knew that the eldest brother's words had explained everything.

After saying that, Qin Hao turned and came to Gao Lishi. This loyal eunuch now had a sad face, as if he was carrying great sorrow.

Qin Hao patted his shoulder, signaling him not to be too sad, and asked softly: "Uncle Gao, did the emperor have any instructions before his death?"
