As for his brother, Fu Rong did not dare to talk to the second princess again and again. He went to Concubine Rou to sue him, and then waited for the news slowly.
Xu Jin was also waiting for news from his subordinates, but Ge Chuan was probably trapped for many years and was afraid of being bound by Xu Jin again. He seemed to have completely disappeared from the world. From the midsummer of the scorching summer to the late autumn full of frost to the first snow in the capital, the people sent out could not find out any deeds related to the miracle doctor.
Xu Jin was not too disappointed or angry.
In fact, he himself knew that no matter how powerful Ge Chuan was, he did not have the ability to revive the dead. Even if the doctors in the Imperial Hospital were not as good as Ge Chuan's medical skills, they were always skilled in diagnosing pulses. Their father's body has been completely damaged in the past two years.
He knelt in front of the dragon couch, looking at his father who was sleeping after taking the medicine, worried and blamed himself.
He really didn't know that his father's spoiled Guan Ying in his previous life and he was indeed seriously ill, but his father kept the news tightly, and he didn't know at all. If he knew, he would definitely not let Guan Ying enter the palace, and would definitely think of other ways to deal with the prince, even if it meant putting more effort into it.
A slight sound of footsteps came from behind.
Xu Jin turned around.
Brother Wang walked in blankly, looked at the dragon couch, and then asked quietly when he arrived at his father, "Is the emperor and grandfather still sleeping?" He kept playing outside after taking a nap.
The little guy obviously just washed his face and came in. There was a faint fragrance of cream on his face. Xu Jin shook his little hand and coaxed him, "Yes, the emperor's grandfather hasn't woken up yet. Brother Wang will go back to find his mother."
Brother Wang nodded obediently and was about to leave, looking at his kneeling father and curiously said, "Why do dad kneel?" The eunuchs and palace maids made mistakes before kneeling. Did dad also make mistakes?
Xu Jin taught him seriously: "Because the emperor's grandfather is sick, his father is the emperor's grandfather's son. When his father kneels down, the emperor's grandfather is getting better soon."
Brother Wang understood and said obediently: "When my father is sick, I will go to my father's bed and kneel down."
The childish voice was soft, and when it fell, a weak laugh suddenly came from the dragon couch.
"Father, you are awake," Xu Jin hurriedly looked at it and blamed himself: "Did we wake up when we talk?"
Emperor Jiahe shook his head and signaled Xu Jin to help him up and sit down on the pillow. He smiled and waved to Brother Wang: "Brother Wang is here, look at you blushing. Have you gone to play just now?"
Brother Wang walked to the dragon couch and was brought to the couch by his father. Brother Wang was a little afraid of the emperor's grandfather, but after being sick for so long, Brother Wang felt sad and was not so scared. He heard the emperor's grandfather's questioning, he replied considerately: "Well, Ling Shou and I are chasing the eagle."
Emperor Jiahe didn't ask him how he knew it was an eagle, and said with a smile: "Have you chased me?"
Brother Wang shook his head: "No, the eagle flew very high."
Emperor Jiahe patted his grandson's shoulder with encouragement: "Brother Wang is still young. When you grow up, let your father teach you how to shoot arrows. Brother Wang shoots the eagle with arrows."
Brother Wang looked up at his father excitedly. Seeing his father nodding, he said happily: "I will shoot the eagle down and show it to the emperor and grandfather!"
Xu Jin lowered his eyes.
Emperor Jiahe was like not seeing his son's disobedience. He only had the innocent and cute little face in his eyes. "Okay, the emperor's grandfather is waiting for Brother Yan to grow up. Then the emperor's grandfather will see Brother Yan shoot the eagle with his own eyes."
He once taught his sons to draw bows and shoot arrows and take them to ride horses and hunt. He had no chance to teach his grandsons, but he would watch from heaven.
After the grandparents and grandchildren finished speaking, Jiahedi touched his grandson's head reluctantly, "Brother Wang went to find your emperor's grandmother, and he said that the emperor's grandfather wanted to see her."
Brother Wang likes his elders to treat him as adults and asks him to do things, and runs out with a smile.
Emperor Jiahe looked at Xu Jin and said calmly: "Brother Wang is a good child. I feel relieved if you discipline him. Brother Zhang, Brother Wang, they are still young and have not yet determined. Send someone to discipline them well and don't let them become crooked. And Sister Yue, usually let her play with Axuan and Apei more. Our Xu family has few girls. There are finally a few more in this generation, so don't get along with the sisters."
A tone of explaining the funeral.
Xu Jin knelt in front of the dragon bed and solemnly promised: "Don't worry, my father, I will teach my two nephews with all my heart and cultivate them to grow up. Sister Yue, Erchen will treat her as her biological daughter and treat her as her sister Apei and Xuan. Also, Fuhui, my son will treat her as her own sister and will never compromise her."
He said one more thing, and the father would be able to spend less effort.
Emperor Jiahe believed that his son would not be difficult for several children, and asked again: "Next year Qiu Duo Xiaoman, what are you going to do?"
When talking about political affairs, Xu Jin's tone became calmer, "The son-in-law would ask him to come over and ask questions. If he knew the tactfulness, he would naturally know what to do."
Emperor Jiahe nodded with satisfaction. Sometimes, it is better to make it clear directly that truly smart people know how to choose.
"You like Fu, I will not interfere, but when you ascend to the throne in the future, you must not spoil her too much. If a woman is too obsessed, it will be difficult to manage. On the Fu family, Fu Pinchuan brothers are all talented, and Fu Chen and his brothers are all pillars of the country. How to use it, you have a idea in your mind. Just remember, don't bring your favor to the court. If you are not careful, you will harm Brother Wang."
The son can give kindness to the Fu family. If the Fu family is powerful, they can in turn suppress the new king in the future and become a threat to the prince.
Xu Jin understood and looked back at his father calmly, "Every son and ministers understand, and will never be confused."
Emperor Jiahe nodded.
The Wanquan report outside that Queen Cui has arrived.
"You go down, I will talk to your mother." Emperor Jiahe said tiredly.
Xu Jin suddenly felt that his legs were so heavy that he could not lift them up. Looking at his father who closed his eyes and rested, he raised his head slightly before getting up and walked out. He said hello to his mother in the outer hall. Xu Jin sent someone to invite King Kang and King Huai and others to the palace, and ordered someone to inform Concubine Rou and his daughter, and finally asked someone to go to the East Palace to pass on the message.
Xu Jia always followed Xu Jin when he was in the palace. After entering the palace, the eunuchs finally showed their faces in front of Fu Rong. Today, the eunuch Wen, who came to pass the message was the eunuch Wen, the big eunuch, who was beside Xu Jin, "Empress, the prince sent someone to invite several princes to the palace, and asked the prince to come over immediately. The prince also said that you would bring the two little masters with you."
Fu Rong's heart skipped a beat.
Emperor Jiahe, is it impossible?
There was no time to guess, Fu Rong quickly ordered Mei Xiang to change clothes for Axuan and Apei. She also changed her body to a plain body. The mother and daughter hurried to Chongzheng Hall.
In the inner hall of Chongzheng Hall, Emperor Jiahe held Queen Cui's hand in both hands. Seeing that his wife's eyes were red and she might cry at any time, he smiled and said with nostalgia: "I still remember the first time I went to your yard. I didn't have someone to summon me. When I went in, I saw a little girl sitting under a lilac tree to do needlework, half lowered her head, and quietly like a painting. If it weren't for her beautiful face, I would almost treat you as the maid next to Concubine Cui."
That was the first encounter between the two. Of course, Empress Cui also remembered that she took Emperor Jiahe's hand and put it on her face, and tears finally fell: "The emperor was only good at teasing people at that time, and suddenly blinded my eyes from behind, which scared me to pierce my fingers..."
Emperor Jiahe's eyes fell on her hands, and time seemed to have suddenly returned to more than 20 years ago. When the sun sets, he half-squatted in front of her and helped her suck the blood beads. At that time, what he thought was that this concubine was so beautiful and soft, and it was okay to spoil her. She didn't expect to go again and again, and she had been spoiled for half her life.
"Have you ever blamed me?" Emperor Jiahe clenched her hand tightly and looked at her inquiringly, "Did you ever blame me when she just entered the palace?"
Queen Cui knew that he was talking about Guan Ying, shook her head and swallowed, "Not that time."
As she shook her head, her eyes dimmed. After hearing her words, hope appeared in her eyes: "When did you complain?"
Queen Cui looked at him with tears and told him what he had hidden in his heart for half his life: "Maybe the Emperor may not remember it. When he was in the residence, one time the emperor asked me to go to the garden to appreciate flowers. I was so happy that I picked out the best-looking skirt and put on the hairpin that the emperor admired me. But when I walked nearby, I saw the emperor and the queen sitting with a smile and didn't know what he was saying. Maybe it was still young at that time and was ignorant. I walked over with a smile and couldn't help but complain. Since the emperor had someone to accompany him to appreciate flowers, why did he call me?"
What she liked him was just that the sour taste was too bitter. She forced herself to take him lightly, and gradually, it was no longer bitter.
Emperor Jiahe listened in a daze, and thought about it carefully, but he couldn't remember this.
But he got it.
When she complains, she really has him in her heart. If she doesn’t complain, he is just a husband.
Emperor Jiahe raised his hand to wipe her tears, "I feel wronged."
Apart from a word of grievance, he could not give anything to others. He wanted to say that if he did it again, he would never give her a grievance again, but he would not give her a grievance. What should Zhong Ting do? He is the prince and the emperor, and he is destined to not give any woman the promise to stay together for the rest of her life.
"Call them in." Looking at Queen Cui's still beautiful face, Emperor Jiahe said softly.
Queen Cui just wanted to tell him what she said in her heart, and didn't want to lie to him at the end, so she didn't expect any response.
Wan Quan went out to pass the message, and soon, Xu Jin and Fu Rong led the way, and a group of people of all sizes rushed in.
Emperor Jiahe's eyes gradually dimly swept across everyone, where there were the second one he had scolded for more than ten years, the fourth one he was proud of, the sixth one he had no time to choose his wife, the baby daughter he held in his palm, the little grandchildren of Zhang Geer, the brother-in-law, the brother-in-law, the brother-in-law, the brother-in-law, and the four princely granddaughters of Zhen Jieer.
Behind them are the thousands of miles of the Great Wei Dynasty.
The eyes finally fell on Xu Jin. Emperor Jiahe reached out to him, and suddenly found that he had a lot of things to say to his son. He just watched his son come towards him, but he no longer had the strength...
The old man's skinny hands just hung down.
"Father..." Xu Jin grabbed his father's hand, lowered his head, and burst into tears.
Fu Rong stood behind, watching the second princess pounce on Emperor Jiahe and cry loudly, and watching King Kang Xu Wei brothers lead Zhang Ge'er and several granddaughters kneeling in front of the dragon couch. The big forehead touched the ground and swallowed even more. The little one cried or looked confused. She also knelt down, and tears fell uncontrollably.
In the midst of different cries, she heard someone say, "The Emperor is mourning..."
emperor?
Yes, the late emperor has gone. From today on, her husband is the new king of the Great Wei Dynasty.
