faint [rebirth]

Emperor Chengguang is back!

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and none of them dared to besiege the prince verbally—everyone in the world bullies the weak and fears the hard.The crown prince is a prince, and he is also a prince who is outstanding in everything except his poor health.This also means that they "death remonstrance" to the prince alone may not be successful, but the prince will definitely not be too harsh on them.

Even if they want to remonstrate with Emperor Chengguang to death, even if they really die by touching the pillar with their heads, Emperor Chengguang may not necessarily criticize their family members.

However, Emperor Chengguang is now sixty years old. Although he is still the Holy Lord of Ming Dynasty, it is a pity that Emperor Chengguang, who has lost five sons, has obviously protected and doted on the prince to a level that ordinary people cannot understand.

If there are ministers admonishing him, no matter what their attitude is, as long as what they say is justified and well-founded, Emperor Chengguang will not be too embarrassing, but now, if they open their mouths, they will embarrass the prince...

In the discussion hall of the East Palace, many officials shrank immediately, swearing that they would not be such an early bird, and when Emperor Chengguang had returned, they would accuse the prince of being "unfilial"-although, in their view, the prince was a Successive's only legitimate son, who didn't guard successively on the night that successively died, and even attempted to confuse the matter of filial piety because of successive's obedience, was so unfilial.However, when the Holy Majesty returns, who dares to say anything more?

None of the officials said a word, and the rest of the courtiers who were interested recalled that the prince's behavior was different from the past. It was obviously a matter that the prince did not understand, but it was easily resolved, and everyone even reprimanded the prince for imitating the barbarians. , If they sit awkwardly and not sit upright, they can't open their mouths, as if they are wrong... Under such circumstances, these courtiers are also unwilling to open their mouths easily.

Wei Yanghou gritted his teeth and watched all this, although he was angry in his heart, but he was helpless. ——In any case, he is the prince's uncle and his successive younger brothers. At least on the surface, he must never say anything that is not good for the prince.

With such thoughts in his mind, Wei Yanghou had no choice but to get up and said: "Since the Holy Majesty has called, Your Highness should hurry to the Jiaofang Palace."

Xiao Wuchen was in a daze, when he heard this, he got up immediately, and was about to rush out of the discussion pavilion in the East Palace.

Unexpectedly, before he could take a few steps, his thin shoulders were held down by someone behind him.

Xiao Wuchen was slightly angry, and was about to stare at the person behind him, when he heard someone behind him say: "It's cold outside, the prince should take care of himself."

Then he put on that white fox cloak for Xiao Wuchen, and finally gave Xiao Wuchen a warm hand stove.

"The crown prince is not feeling well. If he walks, I'm afraid it will take a lot of time. It's better to go by shoulders." Xiao Junye tied the cloak and stuffed the hand stove for the young boy who was a head shorter than him, and took a step back. , Warmly enjoined, "Both the Holy Majesty and the successively love the prince's body. If the prince is not for himself, he should also love himself for the sake of the Holy Majesty and successively."

Xiao Wuchen let Xiao Junye act like this in a daze, lowered his head and thought for a moment, and then said "hmm".

He suddenly remembered that at this time in his previous life, when he knelt in front of his mother's coffin, the emperor's uncle also put on a cloak and gave him a hand stove. However, in front of many people, he threw away the cloak and smashed the hand stove.

However, even so, his uncle still treated him so well.

The guilt towards Xiao Junye suddenly surged up in Xiao Wuchen's heart, he blinked vigorously, then with red eyes, he looked up at Xiao Junye, and said in a low voice: "Uncle Emperor, take care of yourself too."

Then he stretched out his hand unexpectedly, trying to pinch Xiao Junye's hand in vain, but when he stretched out his hand, he found that his arm, Xiao Junye's hand, was half as small. In embarrassment, he had to pinch Xiao Junye's little finger, and then Holding the stove in hand, he left in a hurry.

Xiao Junye: "..." Did he misunderstand?His Wuchen seems to be... enlightened?

After Xiao Wuchen ran out in a hurry, Xiao Junye was stunned for a moment, and then ran out too. Seeing Xiao Wuchen get on the shoulders, he walked away without looking back until he could no longer see his back. The right hand pinched the little finger of the left hand that Xiao Wuchen had pinched.

In the vast snow field, he could only smell the throbbing in his heart, and only saw the back of the boy who had gone away.

In the center of the eye, in the ear, and nothing else.

Besides, Xiao Wuchen sat on his shoulders and soon arrived at the Jiaofang Hall.

Outside the Jiaofang hall, it was Eunuch Yu, the chief eunuch closest to Emperor Chengguang, who was guarding him. When he saw Xiao Wuchen came sitting on his shoulders, he felt comforted, and his eyes turned red immediately.

"Your Highness, go in quickly. The Holy One just told this old slave to let you go in directly when you are here, without reporting."

Xiao Wuchen gave Eunuch Yu a little support, but he was not in good health and had no strength in his body, so he couldn't help Eunuch Yu.

Xiao Wuchen smiled wryly in his heart, and could only say: "Go in now, Eunuch Yu, you are an old man who serves the emperor, why do you have to be so polite every time?"

Eunuch Yu just didn't answer, and after the kowtow was over, he helped Xiao Wuchen go inside, and said in a low voice as he walked: "...Your Highness, don't worry, His Majesty knows a thing or two about the Queen's decree. After all , This kind of thing, the Queen also gave some meaning to the Holy Majesty before, and seeing that the Holy Majesty did not allow it, she really left this decree. The Majesty did not object, and it was obvious that he really felt sorry for His Highness, and did not want His Highness to keep his filial piety because of ordinary things. The ceremony will break the body. So..."

Eunuch Yu was still rambling on, Xiao Wuchen already knew something that he didn't know in his previous life—his father, emperor and mother empress actually regarded him so highly.

Xiao Wuchen was shocked in his heart.

However, thinking of his death in the previous life, Xiao Wuchen suddenly didn't dare to go any further.

Whether it is the emperor father or the queen mother, they all hope that he can live well and continue to pass on the Xiao family's country.But what about him?

Even though he was not a faint king in his previous life, even though he really took back those entrusted powers gradually in his previous life, even though he led the people of Daxing in his previous life, and finally forced the Xiongnu to split up, and could no longer compete with Daxing... But, after all, he was only 27 years old. died.

Xiao Wuchen didn't need to guess at all, he knew that it was not what his father and mother expected most.

"Your Highness, let's go in quickly." Eunuch Yu didn't know the guilt in Xiao Wuchen's heart, and supported Xiao Wuchen to the main hall of Jiaofang Hall.

Although Xiao Wuchen was filled with guilt, his rationality knew that now was not the time to feel guilty, so he walked forward with Eunuch Yu.

It's just that before the two of them reached the Jiaofang Hall, they heard the commotion inside.

"Emperor doctor, quickly spread the word!"

Xiao Wuchen was startled, and hurried to the Jiaofang Hall, but after walking quickly, he realized that it was not Emperor Chengguang who was unwell, but the three-year-old eighth prince who suddenly turned red, as if he had a high fever.

Concubine Shen was holding the Eighth Prince in her arms, and she couldn't help being frightened.

And Xiao Wuchen saw that it wasn't Chengguang Emperor's accident, he was relieved, but couldn't help but began to shake slightly.

"Your Highness! Your Highness!" Eunuch Yu and Eunuch Ruan exclaimed in unison.Fortunately, Xiao Wuchen's eyes just went dark, his body swayed, and he stopped again.

However, this kind of movement was enough for Emperor Chengguang, who was surrounded by the Eighth Prince with Concubine Shen, to notice the movement here.

Although Emperor Chengguang was sixty years old, he was growing stronger and stronger, as if Xiao Wuchen gave birth to any illness he should have, and his body has become incredibly strong over the years.

Originally, he had heard that the eighth prince, who was only three years old, had hurriedly stepped on his short legs since the queen had an accident at night, and ran over by himself. Heart is also anxious.After all, the eighth prince is his youngest son, and now he has lived to be three years old, so he can be raised. If he didn't get it and now he suddenly disappeared, that would be a sad thing.

However, Emperor Chengguang's worry about the eighth prince immediately turned into worry about Xiao Wuchen after hearing Eunuch Ruan and Eunuch Yu's exclamation.

Emperor Chengguang immediately stood up from the side of the Eighth Prince, and strode towards Xiao Wuchen.

Xiao Wuchen only felt dizzy for a while, and then recovered.Seeing Emperor Chengguang walking towards him, his eyes were slightly wet, and he was about to kneel down immediately——

However, Emperor Chengguang hurriedly supported him, and reprimanded him: "You are not in good health, the ground is cold, how can you kneel?" Dissipated, sighed, "And, your mother said that you must not kneel during the day and not guard at night. All good filial piety comes first. These are the words left by your mother. If you can't do it, how can you be a filial piety?" Words? How can you be the crown prince of this world?"

When Emperor Chengguang said these words, his voice raised slightly, and the relatives of the emperor who were kneeling around him all heard these words in their ears.

Concubine Shen wept unceasingly, hugged the Eighth Prince in her arms and said nothing.

The pupils of the four princesses from Emperor Chengguang's Yuan Empress shrank, but they stood up and said, "Father is always wise and decisive, but this statement is wrong, please forgive my daughter for not agreeing."

As soon as the fourth princess stood up, the other princesses and princesses who were attached to her could only stand up tremblingly.

Concubine Shen still hugged the Eighth Prince and shrank aside, as if everything had nothing to do with her.

The rest of the people all winked and said nothing.

However, the little Eighth Prince doesn't know how to look at people.Right now, he only felt that his whole body was burning, his head was dizzy, and his whole body became a little dazed.

"Mother Concubine, it's hot. Mother Concubine, the altar is so hot, and the altar wants to sleep. Mother Concubine..."

The eighth prince couldn't help but began to murmur very softly, tears even flowed from his eyes.

Concubine Shen pressed the Eighth Prince in her arms, and said in a lower voice: "Be patient, good boy, be patient." With a bad background, naturally one must endure.Although Concubine Shen was reluctant to give up, she knew that for a brighter future in the future, the eighth prince must stick to the queen's funeral from the beginning to the end.

In this way, people will say in the future—look, the eighth prince, who was only three years old at that time, could still strictly abide by the filial piety left by his ancestors and stick to it to the end, but what about the prince?Absurd and uninhibited, neither abiding by etiquette nor filial piety, how can such a person be a prince?How to be a benevolent king?

Even if it's just a bit of fame, Concubine Shen refuses to give up.So she just hugged the poor eighth prince who was in a high fever, and she refused to let the eighth prince leave Jiaofang Palace at this moment no matter what.

At this moment, Emperor Chengguang only had Xiao Wuchen in his heart, he only felt that his crown prince was obviously weak, but he was still holding on to his sick body to pay homage to him, how hard it was to come to pay homage to the empress, and smell the fourth princess "Admonishment", for a moment, I also forgot the eighth prince who suddenly had a high fever.

"Xiao Yuzi, please go to the Imperial Medical Office and invite Imperial Physician Zhang to tell him about the Crown Prince's illness, hurry up!" Although Emperor Chengguang heard the fourth princess's words, he obviously did not intend to talk to her immediately, but first ordered someone to invite the imperial physician—— See a doctor for the prince.

The fourth princess stood there stiffly, her face was green and white, and she didn't speak for a long time.

And "Little Yuzi" is naturally Eunuch Yu.

Eunuch Yu was not dissatisfied with listening to the order, he lowered his head in response, and was about to leave when he heard a clear "Wait a minute".

If someone else said these two words in front of the Holy Master, Eunuch Yu would naturally ignore them, turn around and leave.But this "wait a minute" is what the prince said.

Eunuch Yu was well aware of His Majesty's preference for the crown prince, so he immediately stopped and waited for the crown prince's order.

Xiao Wuchen didn't look at Eunuch Yu anymore, but looked at Emperor Chengguang, and said seriously: "Father, Imperial Physician Zhang is not good at pediatrics."

Emperor Chengguang was taken aback.

Xiao Wuchen looked at the eighth prince who was held in the arms of Concubine Shen, and said: "The eighth prince's face was flushed just now, presumably he had a high fever, father should call someone to come and give the eighth prince a diagnosis and treatment." After that, he paused , After thinking for a while, she said, "The queen mother pity her son for being weak, and she doesn't want him to work hard. Thinking about it, she will also feel sorry for the eighth brother, and won't let the eighth brother work so hard at such a young age. Father, the eighth brother I'm sick, and this Jiaofang Palace is not suitable for recuperating, so it's better to let the Eighth Emperor go back to Concubine Shen's bedroom to recuperate, so that the empress mother's love for the Eighth Emperor will be completely lost."

Except for Concubine Shen, everyone obviously forgot about the eighth prince who suddenly had a high fever. They were startled when they heard the words, and then they realized that although the eighth prince was filial, but at that age, since he was sick, he would not It's time to keep keeping the filial piety.

Concubine Shen's complexion turned pale.

At this time, Emperor Chengguang remembered the young son who was also sick. After thinking for a while, he was about to order Concubine Shen to take the eighth prince back to take care of him, when Concubine Shen suddenly knelt down in his direction while hugging the eighth prince.

Emperor Chengguang has been on the throne for 30 years, how many things have he seen?As soon as Concubine Shen knelt down, Emperor Chengguang understood her intention, and his expression changed suddenly.

It's a pity that Concubine Shen didn't see the change of Emperor Chengguang's face, and she was kneeling on the ground with the eighth prince, mourning: "Your Majesty, if Tan'er is sick as usual, she should go back to rest. But now, my sister is gone. Tan'er The son is not only the son of the sister, but also the nephew of the sister.

In the past, when my sister was still awake on the bed, she would always ask about the prince, and after asking the prince, she would ask Tan'er.The sister's love for the altar is not as good as the concubine's.Although Tan'er is small, it is precisely because of his young age that he has a clear mind and a better understanding of good and bad, and understands that the mother who loves him the most has passed away. He came to kneel in front of his sister's couch, but now he just has a little high fever, how could he leave so easily?Your Majesty takes pity on Tan'er, and hopes that apart from taking pity on Tan'er's body, he also takes pity on Tan'er's filial heart! "

After Concubine Shen finished speaking, many women were slightly moved.

Xiao Wuchen glanced lightly at the mother and child, but did not speak.

Emperor Chengguang was not as easy to dismiss as those women in and out of the palace, he just looked at Concubine Shen expressionlessly with a sullen face.

After Concubine Shen finished crying, she took the opportunity to wipe away her tears and quietly raised her eyes to look at Emperor Chengguang.As a result, Concubine Shen was shocked when she saw this, and then pinched the burnt-out Eighth Prince with a glance.

The eighth prince was smart since he was a child, although he was not as good as the old prince who could recite a hundred poems at the age of three, he was always clever.Therefore, when Concubine Shen pinched the eighth prince, she wholeheartedly expected that the eighth prince would say something that would allow her and the eighth prince to regain the trust of Emperor Chengguang.

It's a pity that Concubine Shen only thought of the cleverness of the eighth prince who was usually healthy, but forgot that people will inevitably be confused when they are sick.Not to mention the eighth prince, a three-year-old child.

"It hurts. The altar is guarded by the empress, don't say no, don't pinch the altar." The three-year-old eighth prince's face was flushed due to high fever, and he was tilting his head at this moment, speaking aggrievedly.

Concubine Shen's face immediately changed, and she immediately knelt down on the ground: "Your Majesty, my concubine..."

Emperor Chengguang silently stared at Concubine Shen who was kneeling on the ground for a long time, and then slowly said: "Since the Eighth Prince is ill, Concubine Shen will go back with the Eighth Prince, and take care of him behind closed doors. When will you really raise him?" Alright, when will we talk about other things." Then, without waiting for Concubine Shen to complain, she looked at the other concubines and said, "The empress's funeral, if so, will be presided over by Concubine Li Gui and Lady Cheng."

Concubine Shen only felt her head "buzzing", until the eighth prince's small body suddenly tilted to one side, she suddenly recovered and hugged the eighth prince.

Li Guifei heard that the Holy Majesty asked her to take charge, and she was already happy. Seeing this, she cast a sideways glance at Concubine Shen, and said, "Concubine Shen is really a good mother. When the Crown Prince was ill, Concubine Shen could accompany the Crown Prince in undressed clothes. She didn't dare to leave. But now...my son is so hot that he can't even kneel on his knees, yet he can be so cruel and refuses to carry him back to the palace to see the imperial doctor." Her voice slightly raised, and she said maliciously, "I'm actually I don't know if this Eighth Prince is Concubine Shen's biological son."

Concubine Li Gui's words reached this point, Concubine Shen had no possibility to leave anything behind, so without hesitation, after kowtowing to express her gratitude, she kowtowed earnestly towards the coffin of the queen, even chatting, and continued talking for a long while. Only then did he leave in a hurry with the eighth prince who had passed out due to high fever.

At this time, Emperor Chengguang was already standing in front of the queen's coffin, holding the queen's hand, and remained silent for a long time.

Eunuch Yu had already trotted to invite Dr. Zhang from the imperial hospital.

Xiao Wuchen was originally standing with Emperor Chengguang, but Emperor Chengguang was used to feeling sorry for Xiao Wuchen, so he hurriedly asked someone to move the seat and let Xiao Wuchen sit and wait.

The rest of the people continued to cry according to the rules.

The fourth princess stood in the center of the main hall with a livid face, no one paid any attention to her.

Her royal father has always, always been such a partiality!

The eldest son is still alive, and the emperor's grandson is so outstanding, but in his father's eyes, he can only see Xiao Wuchen, born of a weak and incompetent successor?

It shouldn't be, it shouldn't be!
