Transformed into a vicious concubine? Being led by the eldest sister is annoying
Chapter 363: Too Similar
"You only know how to say nice things. However, I also know that Prince Chen and Bai Qianqian have really put their heart into it. The people of Guanzhou live and work in peace and contentment, business is booming, and the girls' school has made a good start. After I go back, I will definitely reward them well." Emperor Xuanwu said happily.
Eunuch Li nodded quickly and said, "Your Majesty is wise. When Prince Chen and Princess Bai heard that your Majesty praised them so highly, they would definitely do their best to help your Majesty."
Emperor Xuanwu nodded slightly, picked up another piece of dish and put it into his mouth, savoring it carefully.
"The food in Guanzhou is also unique. I will come back to taste it if I have the chance."
"As long as Your Majesty likes it, I will arrange everything in advance next time you come so that Your Majesty can enjoy the delicacies of Guanzhou more comfortably." Eunuch Li said respectfully.
Just then, there was a sudden noise outside the private room.
Emperor Xuanwu frowned slightly. Seeing this, Eunuch Li immediately stood up and prepared to go out to check the situation.
"Wait, I'll go and take a look too." Emperor Xuanwu said, standing up.
The two walked out of the private room and saw a group of people gathered in the hall downstairs.
Emperor Xuanwu and Eunuch Li walked down the stairs and came to the crowd.
It turned out that a woman in her twenties had fainted on the ground. The woman's face was very similar to the folk woman in Emperor Xuanwu's mind.
Emperor Xuanwu was shocked and said to Eunuch Li in a hurry, "Go and call a doctor to see this woman."
Eunuch Li quickly ordered the people around him to call a doctor.
After a while, the doctor came and after diagnosis, he found that the woman fainted due to overwork.
Emperor Xuanwu immediately ordered people to bring food and water and feed the woman.
The woman slowly woke up and saw Emperor Xuanwu and Eunuch Li in front of her, with confusion in her eyes.
Emperor Xuanwu looked at the woman, feeling mixed emotions in his heart, and asked softly, "What's your name? Why did you faint here?"
The woman lowered her head slightly and said, "My name is Lin Wan'er. I came from another place to look for my relatives. I didn't expect to find them. I have no money and can only run around everywhere. I am too tired today, so I fainted."
As Emperor Xuanwu listened to the woman's words, he felt more and more that her fate was similar to that of the woman in his heart, and he couldn't help feeling pity for her.
He turned to Eunuch Li and said, "Take good care of this woman, arrange a place for her to live, and give her some money so that she can live a stable life."
Eunuch Li quickly responded, "Your Majesty, rest assured, I will do it."
Emperor Xuanwu looked at the woman deeply again, then turned and went back to the private room.
But the woman's face remained in his mind.
Eunuch Li saw the emperor's thoughts and said softly, "Your Majesty, this woman is so similar to the woman in your mind. Perhaps it is God's arrangement."
Emperor Xuanwu sighed slightly and said, "Perhaps, but I cannot lose my composure because of her appearance. As the Son of Heaven, I must put the country first."
Despite this, Emperor Xuanwu was always thinking about the woman named Lin Wan'er during his days in Guanzhou.
Emperor Xuanwu has been worried about Lin Wan'er since he saw her that day. Although he said that he would put the country first and not lose his composure because of her appearance, he was still worried.
So, in the next few days, Emperor Xuanwu took advantage of everyone's inattention and secretly went to Lin Wan'er's residence several times. Each time he just watched from a distance, and after confirming that Lin Wan'er was safe, he left quietly without letting anyone notice.
However, these actions of Emperor Xuanwu did not escape the eyes of the secret guards.
The secret guards reported the matter to King Chen.
When King Chen learned about this, he was quite worried.
On the one hand, he was worried about his father's safety; on the other hand, he also felt that if this matter was not handled properly, it might cause some unnecessary trouble.
On this day, Emperor Xuanwu prepared to go out to visit Lin Wan'er again.
He had not walked far when he was stopped by King Dust.
Prince Chen invited Emperor Xuanwu to his study with a serious face.
As soon as he entered the study, Emperor Xuanwu's face was full of anger.
He knew that since King Chen was able to stop him, it meant that King Chen had secretly sent people to monitor him.
"Rebellious son! How dare you send people to spy on me!" Emperor Xuanwu shouted angrily.
King Chen knelt down quickly and said respectfully, "Father, please calm down. I did not intend to monitor you. I was just worried about your safety. I learned that you went out many times and felt uneasy, so I sent someone to protect you secretly."
After listening to King Chen's explanation, Emperor Xuanwu's anger subsided a little, but he was still very dissatisfied.
"Hmph! Do you think I don't know what you are thinking? Aren't you just afraid that I will lose my composure because of a woman?" said Emperor Xuanwu.
Prince Chen was not angry, but raised his head and looked at Emperor Xuanwu sincerely.
"Father, that is not what I meant. I just care about you. I want to ask you, are you sincere to that woman?" asked King Chen.
Emperor Xuanwu blushed at King Chen's question.
He was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "I...I don't know either. That woman is very similar to the woman in my mind. I just felt sorry for her and wanted to help her."
Prince Chen looked at Emperor Xuanwu and knew in his heart that his father actually had feelings for Lin Wan'er, but due to his status as the emperor, he did not dare to admit it easily.
"Father, I understand your concerns. But I think that if you are sincere to that woman, it is not a bad idea. You are also a mortal and you have feelings. As long as you can grasp the right measure and not affect national affairs, then why not?" King Chen said.
After listening to King Chen's words, Emperor Xuanwu fell into deep thought.
He knew that what King Chen said made sense, but he still didn't dare to take that step easily.
After all, he is the emperor, and his every move is related to the fate of the entire country.
"Let me think about this matter again. You can leave first." Emperor Xuanwu said.
King Chen had no choice but to bow and leave.
After leaving the study, King Chen curled the corners of his lips and smiled.
It seems that the prince will ascend to the throne early!
After Prince Chen left, only Emperor Xuanwu and Eunuch Li were left in the study.
At this moment, Eunuch Li was trembling with fear, and did not dare to raise his eyes to look at Emperor Xuanwu. His whole body was tense.
Emperor Xuanwu glanced at Eunuch Li.
Suddenly he asked, "Old Li, do you think it's okay for me to pass the throne to the crown prince now?"
When Eunuch Li heard this, he was so frightened that his legs went limp and he fell to his knees with a plop.
With a trembling voice, he shouted: "Your Majesty, please think twice! This matter of the throne concerns the foundation of the country, and you must not make a rash decision!"
However, Emperor Xuanwu seemed to be determined and said to himself, "I think this is a good idea. As long as I pass the throne to the crown prince, I will be the emperor emeritus. I don't have to worry about state affairs anymore, and I can be with Lin Wan'er."
Eunuch Li was so anxious that he was sweating and kowtowed repeatedly: "Your Majesty, you are entrusted with the heavy responsibility of the people of the world. How can you easily give up the throne for a woman? Even though the prince is excellent, passing on the throne at this time may cause turmoil in the court. I hope Your Majesty will put the country first!"
