He only doted on the Noble Consort Guo very much. Now that the Noble Consort Guo was in the imperial palace, her words and the previous dynasty being under her control, it did not take long for the rumor that the Fifth Prince might become the crown prince of Shang Jing.

Within the Palace, the emperor and his imperial concubine sat side by side, with a child standing below. It was the fifth prince, Song Li. His eyes were clear and transparent, his intelligence apparent from a single glance.

The Emperor sat him down on his lap and asked with a smile, "Li'er, if royal father were to pass on the throne to you, would you be able to become the emperor?"

When Song Li heard this, he immediately knelt onto the ground. He looked at his dumbstruck mother and calmly kneeled on the ground, acting like a spoiled child, "How can this son and subject bear such a heavy burden? Father is at the prime of his life. Why say such words, mother …"

Noble Consort Guo's face showed slight displeasure, "Your Majesty, you scared Li'er."

"Ha ha!" The emperor smiled with an unknown meaning and stopped talking about it. He let the Eunuch Fu reward Song Li with a piece of newly entered ink and sent him to the Imperial Tutor. However, he still said to Noble Consort Guo with a bitter face, "My beloved concubine might not know, but recently I often feel that my strength is lacking. It has been almost two months since the withdrawal of the Tung Hook's troops, but there hasn't been any change in the situation. Would it be better to change seats? "

The Noble Consort Guo flirted. "Your Majesty, why do you have to be so humble, there are several emperors in the past who are as hardworking as you? That Donghu People was just fighting for power, didn't Father say that if they wait a little longer, they would definitely retreat? What's more, there was the invincible general guarding them. They wouldn't be able to fight back. Ning Wang did all that just for the sake of benefits. He wanted to humiliate His Majesty, but he couldn't let him be as proud as he was now. Aiya! Your Majesty, please forgive me for this, but please forgive me for speaking so arrogantly. "

If that Honorable Marquis’ Mansion didn't have the things that happened last time, we would still be able to believe them, but the last time when the Hou Mansion was set ablaze, it was not like we could let them off easily, how can we just let them sit around freely? If they were pulled by King Ning again, we would be facing enemies from the bottom of our hearts, it is very difficult now!

The Noble Consort Guo extended her jade fingers and gently massaged the emperor's temples. "Since the people from Honorable Marquis’ Mansion are not available, why not change generals?"

"Sigh!" There are not enough soldiers, and there is not enough food. Other than the Iron family who can hold on, other generals from other places have already called for help. "

"That won't do, that won't do. Your Majesty, it really isn't easy!" When your concubine heard that the Iron family has the most important son, why not let Marquis Zhongyi come to the capital as a hostage?

"Your father is handling this matter right now, why didn't he send a message? I don't know what the result will be, if we really have that Young Marquis, we don't need to be in such a hurry." The Emperor pulled Noble Consort Guo's hand away and hit her head with it.

Noble Consort Guo was a little doubtful. Ever since she placed the bracelet under the Emperor's pillow, the Emperor's complexion was getting worse and worse every day. She even had headaches, could it be that there was a problem with the bracelet? His grandmother came to the palace to beg him, so she insisted on putting her under the emperor's pillow. She had touched her a few times, but there was no problem. Did the emperor's dragon qi really get sucked away by that pearl?

The Noble Consort Guo didn't care that much. As long as her father remained in a high position, her child could become the future ruler of a country. She didn't care whether the emperor's head hurt or not.

Thinking about it this way, the Noble Consort Guo still ordered the precious bottle to go to the Imperial Hospital and invite a imperial physician in his own name to have a look for the Emperor.

The Emperor was also not willing to let the fact that he was not feeling well spread out. He was very satisfied with the arrangement of the Noble Consort Guo.

Not long after that, imperial physician Qi arrived at the Spring Palace. However, the person who needed to check the pulse was the Emperor, so a thin layer of sweat immediately appeared on his forehead.

He cautiously pressed his hand on the emperor's pulse. After carefully examining it for a moment, he looked at the emperor's expression and then changed his hand. He already had a plan in his heart.

"Your Majesty, you've been overworked. Just drink two doses of medicine and you'll be fine."

The emperor frowned as he spoke. "But recently, Zhen's head has been aching constantly, and nightmares are also unending. I can't sleep soundly."

imperial physician Qi looked at the drooping eyelids of the Noble Consort Guo and said decisively, "Your Majesty has always been too worried about the affairs of the court, how can there not be any nightmares? If it's like this, I might as well burn some Divine Calming Incense at night, that's all."

When the emperor heard his words, the goosebumps on his heart began to rise. His head also stopped hurting. He gave him a reward and told him to withdraw.

Noble Consort Guo calculated that her grandmother would let her have it for seven days. As long as she let it go for another two days, she would be able to get the pearl back. However, when her father went to negotiate, the news that he hadn't come back in a while had reached her. She sighed lightly. It was almost over!

The Prime Minister Guo was temporarily staying at the Qingyang City. After hearing news about Tie Yi, he immediately sent his mansion's warriors to kidnap him, who would have known that all these people would leave, and even Tie Yi's whereabouts were unknown.

He paced around the room, "Boss Wu still hasn't come back. What a piece of trash. He sent so many people, but they couldn't even get a message back. What's the use of keeping them alive!"

Just as he was feeling depressed, a guard suddenly came in and reported, "Reporting to the Lord Prime Minister, the loyal Marquis was taken away by that Chiron woman, and she even killed the Manager Wu!"

"What?" Prime Minister Guo was furious, "How dare she be so arrogant?"

The guard hurriedly knelt down in apology as Prime Minister Guo waved his hand for him to go down. He thought gloomily that since Tie Yi was taken away by Wu Luoyan, he would definitely not be able to explain himself to Zang Qu, and would only be able to make them retreat if he was able to capture Yue Ying. But Yue Ying was a bandit leader, and capturing her was much harder than capturing Tie Yi.

Prime Minister Guo stroked his beard and shouted, "Come!"

The person who just left entered the house once again, heard Prime Minister Guo's orders, "Send out the news that the loyal duke has been captured by the Chiron, send people to keep an eye on the Stone Bull Camp, we must let the people there know of this news."

In the Niu Wei Gou army camp, Old Lady Feng had just finished commanding a battle and was returning to his tent to remove her heavy armor. Peony gave her a cup of water and said slowly, "General, Tie Jian is back!"

"Quick, call him over! Let him tell me, how is the little girl Yue right now? There's still a month until her child is born, I wonder if Tie Biao can bring her over! " As Old Lady Feng spoke, she excitedly pulled out the small blankets and peonies she had made long ago, letting them dry in the sun.

Peony did not stop Old Lady Feng. Ever since the incident with Honorable Marquis’ Mansion, she had not revealed a smile on her face. With Tie Yi missing, if there was no more joyous event, the Old Granny would probably not be able to hold on.
