Princess Jiaojiao arrives, teasing the prince to blush and heartbeat

Only Leng Yu, Luo Lan, and people from Prince Yu's Mansion are left here.

Liu Xi took two steps forward, bowed and said:

"Prince Yu, Concubine Yu, the emperor invites you two to come in, please go ahead."

Leng Yu and Luo Lan looked at each other, nodded, followed Liu Xi, and walked into the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

The emperor was dozing off with his eyes closed, when the sound of footsteps came, he slowly opened his eyes, trying to support himself up, Liu Xi wanted to step forward to help him, but his foot injury was not healed, so he dared not go quickly.

Seeing this, Leng Yu stepped forward quickly and supported the emperor to sit up.

When the emperor saw Leng Yu, a trace of guilt flashed in his eyes. ,

After Leng Yu took a cushion from the end of the bed and put it on him, he took a few steps back, bowed and cupped his fists,

"Father, Eunuch Liu said your name is Erchen?"

"Well, Yu'er, you're back? How are things going with the victims? Liu Xi has told me everything that happened during this period, and it's really hard for you."

"Father, this is what I should do. I have already ordered Ah Yu and Empress to deal with the victims. This time, a large number of victims flocked to the capital. This is due to the malfeasance of officials in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. I think about it. Govern it, remove a few officials from their posts, and make an exception and canonize a county magistrate named Lin Dong as the governor. Because you were in a coma at the time, the son-in-law made the decision in private. I hope that my father will correct me, and my son will definitely change it in time."

"Well, since Liu Xi asked you to handle the government affairs on your behalf, you naturally have the right. You don't need to change it. You have done a good job. In the past, your father always treated you wrong. You don't remember your father's hatred, do you?"

"I don't dare, my father has always been the sky in my heart, I dare not remember you."

The emperor nodded feebly,

"Whether you hate me or not, I want to tell you something today. After this serious illness, I want to understand many things. I am tired, and I am unable to deal with state affairs anymore. I thought, this throne, by Let me do it for you!"

The emperor's words made Leng Yu frowned, and also surprised Luo Lan.

"Father, your body is recovering day by day, and you haven't reached the point where you need to give up your seat. Besides... besides, my son is not ready, and I hope your father will take it back."

Seeing Leng Yu's resignation, the emperor was a little surprised. This throne was something that others couldn't ask for, but he refused to do it. This really puzzled him.

"After much deliberation, among my several sons, you are the only one who is suitable for the throne, but you refuse to do it. I don't understand why?"

"My son feels that your health is not bad, it is too early to abdicate now..."

Although Leng Yu didn't say it directly, Luo Lan knew what he was thinking, he just didn't want to imprison himself in the palace prematurely, and he didn't want to live that kind of intrigue every day, he likes a peaceful life just like himself.

If one day he had to, he would accept the throne, but not now.

Thinking of this, she leaned forward and said:

"Father, your body will gradually return to normal within half a year. After that, if you take good care of your body, it will return to the same level as before. Why are you so eager to give up the throne?"

Luo Lan's words made the emperor's eyes flash with anticipation. He looked at her and asked urgently:

"Will my body really return to normal?"

"Really, as long as the emperor doesn't touch things that shouldn't be touched, he should pay more attention to restraint in life."

Luo Lan wanted to remind him not to have the stupid idea of ​​immortality anymore, otherwise, Lengxi and Concubine Li would not take advantage of it.

The emperor seemed to be confused and nodded,

"Well, my illness this time is inexplicable, and I don't remember many things. If I can really recover from this serious illness after recovering from this serious illness, I will definitely reward you well."

After saying that, he looked at Leng Yu again,

"Yu'er, after what happened this time, Liu Xi has a high opinion of you. Since you are unwilling to take over the throne, then I canonize you as the regent of Daning Kingdom. You will handle all the big and small matters on my behalf, go to the court on my behalf, and review the memorials on my behalf. For some matters, you can make decisions directly without going through me. Are you willing to share my worries?"

This……

Leng Yu suddenly frowned, what is the difference between what the regent did and what the emperor did?

But the emperor has already said this, so what reason does he have to refuse.

So, he clasped his fists in both hands, bowed and replied:

"My son thanked my father for his love, my son will definitely fulfill my mission and share my father's worries."

Seeing Leng Yu's response, the emperor nodded weakly,

"Well, that's good, Liu Xi, come back and draw up an imperial decree to convey my decree."

When mentioning the imperial decree, Luo Lan thought of the imperial decree she had passed on falsely. This matter cannot be concealed. If the emperor finds out from others one day, with his suspicious nature, he will definitely be troubled again. If she is furious, and will implicate Prince Yu's Mansion, why not take the opportunity to speak out.

Thinking of this, after rolling her eyes a few times, she knelt down on her knees,

"Your Majesty, my son made a mistake, please punish my father."

Her actions stunned Leng Yu, and the emperor looked at her in puzzlement,

"Princess Yu, what are you doing? You have meritorious service, and I haven't rewarded you yet, so why are you punishing me?"

Before Luo Lan could continue, Liu Xi suddenly knelt down,

"Your Majesty, this matter has nothing to do with Princess Yu, it is the old slave's fault, please the emperor punish the old slave."

Liu Xi's actions made Luo Lan and Leng Yu a little bit confused by Monk Zhang Er, and the emperor looked at him with surprise,

"Liu Xi, what's wrong with you?"

Liu Xi looked at the emperor, put his face directly on the ground, and replied loudly:

"Before the emperor fell into a coma, he didn't issue an imperial decree to allow Prince Yu to handle the affairs of the court. He just passed on a verbal order, which made it very inconvenient for Prince Yu to do things, especially after the disaster happened. Therefore, the old slave asked Yu The concubine pretended to be the emperor and wrote the imperial decree, and secretly took out the emperor's jade seal and stamped it, and passed the imperial decree to Prince Yu, begging the emperor to punish him."

Liu Xi's words made Luo Lan stunned for a moment. It turned out that Eunuch Liu knew that her imperial decree was false, but why did he stop this crime?

Seeing this, she hurriedly bowed to explain,

"Father, this matter has nothing to do with Eunuch Liu. It was done by me alone. I saw that Mr. Xiang was inconvenient, so I secretly wrote the imperial decree and sealed the jade seal, and asked Eunuch Liu to deliver the decree in the name of the emperor. It's my fault, please ask Father to punish me."

"Your Majesty, Concubine Yu is trying to excuse the old slave, please see clearly."

"Your Majesty, it is Eunuch Liu who has taken the crime for his son and minister, please investigate clearly..."

Not only the emperor was surprised by what these two people said, but Leng Yu was also a little puzzled.

The emperor suddenly rested his forehead with one hand, and waved helplessly,

"I originally wanted to reward the person who stole this imperial decree, but now you two are fighting here, who should I reward?"

reward?

Liu Xi felt that the emperor must want to use this to find out who made the false edict, and then punish others.

When Concubine Yu passed on this false decree, he had already thought about it. When the emperor woke up, he would take the blame for Princess Yu. Anyway, his old bones were not afraid of the emperor's decree to convict him, but he didn't expect that Before he could speak, Princess Yu actually spoke up.

No, he must understand the emperor's intentions, and he must not allow Princess Yu to be blamed for this.

Thinking of this, he straightened up and looked at the emperor, clasped his fists in confusion and said:

"Your Majesty, this old slave doesn't understand what you mean. Falsely preaching the imperial decree is a crime of deceiving the emperor. Why doesn't the emperor reward you instead of punishing him?"
