poor family prodigal

Emperor Xinglong wanted to sit up, but the queen felt anxious and quickly stepped forward to support him. She asked anxiously and worriedly: "Your Majesty, what are you doing?"

"Your body is very weak now. You must have a good rest. You can't..."

Before the Queen could finish her words, she saw His Majesty wave his hand slightly and said weakly: "I know how my body is, and I also know that I don't have much time left."

"But I, the majestic emperor, cannot just die on the bed like this. Help me up. I want to have a meal and go to court in the morning."

Emperor Xinglong tried his best to make his tone calmer.

He forced himself not to cough, lest the queen would worry later.

"Your Majesty, you are very weak now. You must lie down and recuperate in the hospital bed without moving around!"

The princes also quickly stepped forward and echoed eagerly: "Yes, Father, your body is very weak now and you cannot move around. Otherwise, your illness will be aggravated..."

When the queen saw Emperor Xinglong trying to get up, she quickly stepped forward and supported Emperor Xinglong.

Then, she looked at the imperial doctor with a worried look on her face and asked hurriedly: "Imperial doctor, can your majesty have a meal now and go to court?"

The imperial doctor's face was extremely solemn, with a solemn look in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "No, Queen!"

"Your Majesty is very weak now and has no energy or effort to consider these things..."

"Now I can only stay in bed and rest for a while..."

Before the imperial doctor could finish his words, Emperor Xinglong waved his hand weakly.

His expression looked very determined, and he said in a deep voice: "Ahem, there is no need to persuade the queen anymore. I understand what the imperial doctor said."

"Even if I lie in bed to rest, it won't last much longer. Instead of just lying in bed and waiting for death, I might as well do more meaningful things at the end of my life."

After the words fell, Emperor Xinglong suddenly looked at the queen seriously, with a weak smile on his face.

"Queen, you should be able to understand me, right?"

The queen's eyes were red, and she shed two lines of clear tears slowly, but she couldn't hold back Emperor Xinglong. She could only nod her head with tears in her eyes and agreed.

"Okay, Your Majesty, I understand."

The queen immediately helped Emperor Xinglong stand up, and the kneeling doctors also looked sad.

Emperor Xinglong had breakfast under the Queen's service.

However, breakfast did not go very smoothly, because Emperor Xinglong's body was so weak that he vomited after every bite and could not eat anything at all.

But he had no energy if he didn't eat. Emperor Xinglong still swallowed a few mouthfuls of porridge and side dishes, and then asked the queen to serve him and put on the dragon robe.

After finishing everything, we went to the morning court.

The ministers below looked a little frightened at first when they saw the Queen supporting Emperor Xinglong, who was pale and unsteady when walking, and looked like he might faint to the ground at any time. disturbed.

They couldn't help but silently curse in their hearts. They had known for a long time that His Majesty's illness was very serious and he was on the verge of death. His life was not long...

But now, His Majesty still insists on coming here to attend the morning court. Is this okay?

Wouldn't it drag down His Majesty's body?

The courtiers looked nervous, embarrassed, and wanted to say something hesitantly, but they could not say a word. They could only watch the emperor, supported by the old eunuch, walk step by step to the dragon throne. Slowly sat down.

But when she saw him sitting firmly on the dragon chair, she didn't say anything more, but quickly lowered her head and bowed in salute.

Emperor Xinglong's expression still looked very pale, and it was obvious that he might die at any time.

But he still took a deep breath, tried hard to calm down, and showed his majestic side.

The spirit of the emperor can never be lost at any time.

The ministers in the audience were too frightened to say a word, fearing that if they said something, they would irritate His Majesty and aggravate his illness.

Emperor Xinglong coughed, then worked hard to cheer up, and spoke softly to the ministers present: "Ministers, do you have anything to say?"

In the audience, the ministers were silent and did not dare to say another word. They were worried that if they said too much, they would irritate him.

Emperor Xinglong's face looked very serious. He frowned and said in a deep voice: "Dear ministers, I am afraid that today is my last chance to attend the morning court."

"Don't you want to discuss national affairs with me for the last time?"

The ministers looked at me and I looked at you, their expressions looked very serious and solemn.

They thought for a moment, and one of the ministers immediately stepped forward and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, there is heavy rain in Zhongzhou today. The people are in dire straits. There are many victims and they need to be properly resettled."

"We will continue to make arrangements to provide porridge to the victims, set up tents, repair the destroyed and collapsed houses as soon as possible, and reduce the tax collection."

"Your Majesty, there are constant wars on the border, and the State of Yan has repeatedly invaded and occupied our territory of Daye. I believe that we should give the State of Yan a heavy hammer to scare the monkeys, so that the enemy countries will have a strong fear of our Great Cause, and they will not dare to invade our territory of Daye again! "

Hearing this, Emperor Xinglong's expression was extremely solemn.

After being silent for a long time, he said seriously: "The territory of my great cause is inviolable!"

"We must expel the enemy troops as soon as possible and establish dignity. No matter what, we must not let them take another step into my great cause!"

After what Emperor Xinglong said, all the ministers below nodded and shouted in unison that His Majesty is wise!

After a moment, Emperor Xinglong suddenly looked at the ministers, waved his hands and said softly: "Okay, since there is nothing more to do, please all leave."

After Emperor Xinglong finished speaking, all the ministers immediately lowered their heads and prepared to leave.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, the old eunuch who had been standing beside Emperor Xinglong suddenly changed his expression!

He suddenly shouted in shock: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

In the court, all the ministers suddenly panicked. They hurriedly stopped and looked at Emperor Xinglong in panic.

Emperor Xinglong's body was seen leaning crookedly on the dragon chair. His face was pale and his lips were bloodless. It was obvious that he had died.

The old eunuch suddenly burst into tears, fell to his knees heavily on the ground, and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty... has passed away!"

All the ministers in the court looked extremely frightened. They all knelt down in front of Emperor Xinglong and cried loudly, their voices were tragic!

The queen, who had been waiting behind, couldn't hold back her tears. She fell directly to the ground, covered her face and cried in pain.

Soon, throughout the palace, the death knell of His Majesty's death rang in the sky.

Countless concubines rushed out of the courtyard in a hurry. They threw themselves in the courtyard,
