Chapter 318

Li xuser touched the head of Chu Zizhan, the little prince, and pulled him to the emperor. "Didn't you learn an ancient poem from the master? Now can you recite it to your father and Emperor?"

The emperor smiled faintly. "So our son Zhan can recite ancient poems. Which ancient poem do you want to recite to me?"

Chu Zizhan stood there straight, the atmosphere didn't dare to mess out, and he was so nervous that he trembled. "My ministers should recite the goose."

"Chanting geese was written by Luo Binwang, a poet of the Tang Dynasty," the emperor smiled. "The son looked back to his father."

Chu Zizhan recited it intermittently. Swallowed a mouthful of saliva and stared into his eyes. He was afraid that his performance could not satisfy his father, and his eyes were both expectation and excitement.

The emperor nodded to the queen with satisfaction, "yes. You taught it well. The chanting goose recites very well."

Li xuse smiled, relieved, "thank you for your praise."

"Does our son Zhan like the big white goose very much?" the emperor pinched his face. "When the father and the emperor were six years old, would you like to take him to the lake to see the big white goose?"

Chu Zizhan was stunned and said with a smile: "my son, thank you for your father. My son wanted to go out with my father to see the big white goose for a long time, but my father never came to see my son."

"Zizhan." Li xuse frowned at him, "the emperor is the king of the state of Qin. Your mind is all on the country. How can you complain that the emperor doesn't come to see you? You should understand that the most important thing to be a prince is to understand the emperor's mind."

Chu Zizhan's eyes were red and almost cried.

The emperor held him on his lap and said with a smile, "don't blame him. It's my fault. No matter how busy I am, I should come to see him. In the future, I will give some government affairs to Duan Wang and Xiang Wang, and then come to see you more, okay?"

Chu Zizhan said cleverly, "when the children's ministers grow up, the children's ministers also come to share the worries for the father and Emperor."

The emperor touched his head with a smile, "you are still young. My father doesn't know if he can wait until that time."

"How can the emperor say such words in front of children? The emperor is in his prime of life. How can he not wait until Zizhan grows up," Li xuse sighed leisurely. "The emperor can't say such worrying words."

The emperor raised a sad smile, "since the death of the eldest princess, my body is getting worse day by day. You see, this autumn, I feel my bones are sore. It's not good to stick some plasters of the imperial doctor."

Li xuse silently looked at the swirling leaves outside the window. Unexpectedly, it was late autumn. It should also be the time when Duanwang and Xue ronghua got married. She winked at thin Xiang and asked her to hold the little prince aside.

"Emperor," Li xuser smiled, "it's almost time for Duan Wang to get married. Hasn't there been any news from Duan Wang's house?"

The emperor frowned and thought, "I asked a few questions when I saw Duan Wang last time. He said that the princess must be ill. Maybe we have to postpone this day for a few days."

Li xuse moved in his heart, "didn't the emperor like the second miss of the sun family? Did he talk to Duanwang?"

"I inadvertently mentioned once that the second miss of the sun family has deep feelings for him and wants to marry into the Royal Palace, even if it is to become a concubine, but Duanwang's face is cold and doesn't mean anything to the second miss."

Li xuse's eyes darkened, "it seems that Duanwang really has a Lion hole in the east of the river. The prospective Princess looks very powerful. I'm afraid Duanwang is absolutely not allowed to take concubines."

The emperor frowned. "It's nothing for the prince to take a few concubines. The prospective Princess doesn't have to care about these things. Her position in the palace has been determined. Even if Duanwang likes concubines, she is still the master of the palace."

"It's not that the emperor doesn't know the temperament of the prospective princess. Even if Duan Wang's heart has been on her, she can't tolerate anyone who tries to touch Duan Wang," Li shuse curved his lips. "It seems that Duan Wang will have less happy days in the future."

"Prince Duan doesn't necessarily like the second lady. It doesn't mean that he will be unhappy if there is only the prospective princess," the emperor waved his hand and said, "this is between them. It's inconvenient for an outsider to intervene."

Li xuse hurriedly said, "how can the emperor say that he is an outsider? This marriage is given by the emperor. If the emperor doesn't let them get married, they can't say no."

"You don't seem to want Duan Wang to get married," the emperor looked at her suspiciously. "Do you have any opinion on the princess? Do you think Duan Wang and the princess to be are not quite right?"

"This is the marriage given by the emperor. My concubines don't dare to interfere with it, so as not to disturb the emperor's thoughts," Li chuse pursed his lips and looked at him with some hesitation, "but Duanwang and the prospective princess always have conflicts. I don't know whether the emperor knows it or not."

"I really don't know. I've been reading the folding in the imperial study all the time. It doesn't matter about the king's family. How do you know?"

"This was inadvertently revealed by the prospective princess to her concubine. She felt that Duan Wang couldn't care about her and always left her alone in the palace. However, the concubine comforted her to understand the identity of Duan Wang's Prince, but she couldn't change it," said Li shuse with a growing smile on her lips, "The most important thing around the emperor is a lovely person who can take care of, rather than a sick beauty who always asks him to take care of. Maybe the princess to be stayed in the state of Qi for so long that returning to the state of Qin is the reason why she is acclimatized. Since they returned to the state of Qin, the princess to be has been seriously ill several times, and Duanwang is also very busy."

The emperor drooped his eyes and thought carefully, "that's right. Every time I see the prospective princess, I always feel that she is sick between her eyebrows and eyes. It's true that she has been sick too many times. I don't know if I can make it up."

"If this is the root of the disease, it can't be mended," said Li Xiuse meaningfully. "Emperor, that's why my concubine wants you to betroth the second miss of the sun family to Duanwang. She is polite and gentle. She complements the strong willed princess to be. It must be the best to have their two wives in Duanwang's house."

"There are also heroines and * * Tianxiang," the emperor also said, "it sounds very good, but the prospective princess will not agree, and the Duanwang will not agree. I can't force it, so Lord Sun will be unhappy."

Li xuse raised his lips and smiled, "they always want to listen to the emperor. What the emperor says is what it is. It's really not good. My concubines can come forward to advise."

"You have a good relationship with the prospective princess. It's OK to persuade..."

The emperor's last words disappeared in his mouth. He frowned slightly and felt a fishy smell gushing out of his throat. He subconsciously took out his handkerchief to cover his mouth. After a strong cough, the handkerchief was full of scarlet blood.

Li xuser grabbed his handkerchief in panic and stared at the blood. "This blood... Come on, come on, the emperor vomited blood. The emperor vomited blood. Call the imperial doctor."

The emperor wiped the blood stains on his lips, lowered his voice and said, "don't shout too loudly. Don't let Zizhan hear it, otherwise he will be more attentive."

Chu Zongge jumped down from his horse, stepped into the corridor with the shadow of lanterns, hurried to the room, and happened to meet a pendant with a medicine bowl.

"What's the matter with your young lady?" Chu Zongge gasped. "The emperor's health is in trouble. I went to the palace immediately after receiving the edict. I'm only back now. How's your young lady's illness?"

Diaoer patted him on the back and comforted him in soft language: "don't worry, Mr. Wang. The young lady is better. She also drank several bowls of soup after dinner. Xiang Wang said that she can get better in a few days, but she should be careful."

"That's good. I'm always afraid that her condition will worsen, and I'm still thinking about whether to find an imperial doctor," Chu Zongge said with a strange expression. "You said that Xiang Wang said he could get better in a few days?"

"Yes," chui'er nodded excitedly, "the king of Xiang brought some babies from Xirong. He cooked some herbs for the young lady. The young lady was much more comfortable after drinking."

Chu Zongge was silent for a long time and said, "this medicine is so powerful. Why have I never heard of so many rare and different herbs in Xirong."

"I haven't heard of it either," chui'er said with a smile. "Do you want to go in and see the young lady? The young lady just fell asleep and asked you before going to bed."

Chu Zongge couldn't help but brighten his eyes, "she... Even asked me. I thought she was very disappointed that I didn't accompany her when she was ill."

Zhui'er smiled reassuringly at him, "Wang Ye must think so. My young lady still thinks of him very much. My maid just talked about the king, but the young lady is full of the king."

Chu Zongge's smile on his lips grew stronger and his eyes glittered, "well, you've worked so hard for so long. Go back and have a rest quickly. I'll go into the room and accompany your young lady."

Zhui'er winked at him, "but the young lady is not well. The Lord should be more careful."

"What's in your mind, you girl?" Chu Zongge bent his knuckles and knocked her on the head. "No wonder your young lady always talked to me about marrying you out. You should marry out now."

The pendant son tooted his mouth, "it's better for the prince to marry the young lady quickly. It's late autumn now. If he doesn't marry again, the year will pass again."

Chu Zongge sighed slightly, "I know. You're right. It's time to get married. I don't want to drag it down any more."

"Duan Wang," Chu Chengxun's eyes glittered in the dark. He walked slowly to the lantern and smiled at him, "Duan Wang finally came back from the palace. I thought you would rest in the palace tonight."

Chu Zongge narrowed his eyes dangerously. "Why didn't the king come over and the emperor's body was in trouble? Why didn't the king go into the palace to greet the emperor?"

"It's not that you don't know the emperor's body, but it's because you took too many tonics," Chu Chengxun maintained a smile. "I'm useless if I go. I'm not a miracle doctor and can't share the emperor's worries."

"Why not? The prospective princess has been cured by the king. The king is so powerful that the emperor's condition can be cured."

"There's no way. I can't do anything about the emperor's condition," Chu Chengxun smiled. "It seems that I can only deal with the pain of the princess to be. This is also very strange. Maybe I brought it from Xirong, which is just the herbal medicine to treat the princess to be."
