morning thoughts

Ji Yu took the fastest time to explain the follow-up matters. The generals who were suppressed by Ji Jingyang in the past were also rectified. Ji Yu didn't want to get involved in these matters, so he asked Ji Xun to come forward.

King Annan's health is also much better than before, and he has entrusted everything to Ji Xun. Ji Xun is very stable, and although the things entrusted to him are not outstanding, they are not faultless.

Two days later, Ji Yu and Wei Chengji were about to return to Beijing. Before leaving, Ji Xun called Ji Yu to stop him, hoping that he would tell His Majesty to stay in Lichuan.

After hearing Ji Xun's words, Ji Yu had his own plan in mind.

Ji Yu said: "Brother, you don't need to keep me in Lichuan. In the past, His Majesty would not agree, but now, Huajing is a good place for me."

"It's a good place," Ji Xun repeated his words, thinking wildly, and said apologetically, "Your Majesty's concerns are naturally clear to us, and there may be other ways to let the father come forward to adjust, so you don't need to go to Beijing again."

"You also said it was possible," Ji Yu lowered his eyes, and laughed when he raised his eyes again, raised his hand and patted Ji Xun's arm and said, "I said that Huajing is a good place for me, not to comfort you , sometimes it may take some coincidences to just meet the person you want to meet."

Ji Xun was a little dazed by him, but he understood what he said, guessing in his heart that Ji Yu might have met a girl he likes, and if so, it would be considered a happy event.

After a while, Ji Xun nodded in consideration.

In the clear sky and scorching sun, Ji Yu raised his hand to wipe his sweat.

He turned his head and nodded at Wei Chengji, indicating that the troops could move out. Before turning around, he said to Ji Xun, "Brother, you will take care of my father and mother. It's just a false name, in the future Lichuan will still be handed over to you, if my sister-in-law gives birth to a son-in-law in the future, then the title of Prince Annan's son will be passed on to my little nephew."

Ji Xun was also wiping sweat when he heard Ji Yu's words, his hands stopped, and he hurriedly said: "I have never coveted these, and you must not think so, your body is not capable of riding a horse and fighting. It doesn't matter, no matter how bad it is, we will always seek a famous doctor..."

So he looked for a famous doctor, King Annan did not look for it, if it was really useful, how could there be the situation today, Ji Xun blamed himself, thinking that Ji Yu was worried about his poor health and would wither in the matter of heirs in the future, his face became more and more ugly .

Seeing Ji Xun's slumped self-reproach, Ji Yu intentionally didn't reveal the matter, and cupped his hands at him, got on his horse and left with the troops.

Wei Chengji didn't intend to listen to the corner of the wall, he looked back, Ji Xun was still standing there and didn't go back, raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his chin, and said casually: "I see that Mr. Ji is a sincere person, He also knew about your return to Huajing, why didn't you tell him about it?"

Ji Yu held the reins and looked ahead, calmly said: "I didn't intend to hide it from him, but he made me suffer in the past, and now I'm just asking for some harmless interest."

Wei Chengji: "..."

Wei Chengji paused, and said to himself, this son loves to hold grudges.

-

Ji Yu sent a message to Ling Chu in the name of Ji Jingyang, telling him that everything in Lichuan was under control. Then he will bring the Lichuan Army to Huajing to support Ling Xuan.

At that time, Ling Chao had joined his troops and arrived outside Huajing City.

Ling Yu counted the time and began to dispatch all the soldiers and horses in Huajing that could be used by the emperor, in order to prevent the emperor from having a chance to rebound after he found out.

What Ling Chu did during this period has never been in the emperor's heart, but the emperor had no choice but to entrust many things to him.

In the sleeping hall, the emperor had just drank the soup, his cheeks were flushed and he leaned on the soft pillow and coughed. The eunuchs around him hurriedly helped the emperor, and the emperor covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief when he coughed hard, but he spit out blood Come.

"Father!" Ling Jun came in from outside the palace and saw this scene. With red eyes, he ran to the emperor and slowly breathed down his chest. He couldn't help cursing: "Why are these imperial doctors so incompetent? I saw you two days ago, why did it suddenly happen again?"

The emperor held the veil tightly in his hand, and persuaded him, "It's my own health that is failing, no wonder these imperial doctors."

After hearing this, Ling Jun looked at the emperor tearfully, not knowing how to speak.

Ling Jun is a straightforward person, and he can't hide his worries. The emperor didn't think much about it, he just thought that he was so worried when he saw that his condition was getting worse. Bar."

Ling Jun nodded with a tense little face, carefully scooped up a small spoonful of ginseng soup, blew it on his mouth, and then fed it to the emperor.

"Father, my son will help you lie down and rest for a while?"

The emperor had been lying down for many days, but today he was still in good spirits. He waved his hands and coughed a few times, "I'm not tired yet, why don't you talk to me."

The father and son chatted for a while, because Li Chuan was talking about the lack of rain this year, Ling Jun pursed his lips and tentatively persuaded the emperor not to think too much about Ling Chao, and he stayed in Li Chuan for a while. It doesn't matter, it's rare to go out once and the scenery of Lichuan is beautiful.

Unexpectedly, the emperor's face changed just after he said a few words, and his temperament was changeable during his illness. Ling Jun was so frightened that he didn't dare to say anything, and just knelt on the pedal with a pale face.

"Do you have something to hide from me?" The emperor was very upset, and he couldn't help becoming suspicious when he saw that the people around him were talking about him.

Hearing the words, the eunuch quickly knelt down, turned to look at Ling Jun and said, "I dare you, I have one thing to report to Your Majesty."

"Today, the papers handed over from Lichuan directly arrived at the Imperial Palace," the eunuch paused for a moment, and whispered cautiously: "Your Majesty, the third prince... the third prince and Ji Shizi, they are unfortunate in Lichuan. dead."

After the eunuch finished speaking, he bent down and kowtowed, not daring to make any more noise.

The emperor paused for a moment, and struggled to get up but was stopped again. During the struggle, the emperor coughed violently again and was panted continuously after being supported by Ling Jun.

"My condolences, Your Majesty."

"Father's Day Mourn!"

"How is this possible?" The emperor didn't believe it. He just passed the decree to return the Ling dynasty, and then he died in Lichuan. Naturally, the emperor would not believe that such a change happened at such a critical juncture. It was a coincidence.

The emperor pushed away the crowd, his face turned red as he held back his coughing, and said in a deep voice to the eunuch beside him, "Quickly send the general to the palace for an audience."

Ling Jun was puzzled, and persuaded him with a frown: "Father, no matter what important matters you have, don't rush at this moment. It's never too late to take care of your health. Father has worked so hard all day to lose his health. No matter how bad it is And big brother to help."

Mentioning Ling Yu, the emperor's eyes turned cold, and he cursed angrily: "You fool, I can't take care of many things when I'm sick, and you can't help, hurry up and tell the general, or it will be too late. "

At this moment, Ling Xuan approached the bedroom with a smile, greeted the emperor, and then went forward to help the emperor lie down and tucked the quilt for him, and said softly, "Who is the emperor calling for? Why don't you explain to your son."

The emperor closed his eyes, gasped and asked unwillingly, "Where's Ling Chao? Where's Wei Chengji?"

Ling Chu smiled, and replied, "Where does Father think they should be?"

The emperor suddenly opened his eyes, pulled his clothes unwillingly, and looked at him fixedly, "Lingxi, do you think it's the other way around?"

Ling Yu was stunned for a moment, brushed away the emperor's hand and said with a smile: "How come, the father will pass the throne to his son voluntarily."

"Come here, please go to the main hall, father."

As soon as Ling Yu raised his hand, someone from outside came in and asked the emperor to move. Ling Jun struggled to push away the guards who were forcibly supporting the emperor, glared at Ling Yu and cursed: "Brother! Why did you do this!"

"Oh, I'm also very helpless." Ling Xuan sighed: "If the father does not abolish my crown prince, the father is not in a hurry to let Ling Chao take my place, maybe I can delay it for him Not so early, but don't worry, as long as you are obedient enough, I won't embarrass you."

"Please, father!" Ling Xuan turned sideways and made a gesture of invitation, inviting the emperor and Ling Jun out.

Ling Yu pulled Concubine De, Concubine Shu, and the emperor together, walked to the case with his hands behind his back, randomly picked up a booklet, flipped through it, and said casually, "Father, you are getting more and more haggard, it is better to give up your seat early, let me let you go." My son, bear this burden for you, wouldn't it be better for you to be your Supreme Emperor?"

The emperor closed his eyes and didn't even look at him.

Ling Xuan threw the booklet in his hand, but was not angry.

He took the pen and ink and put it in front of the emperor, and said unhurriedly: "My father personally taught my son when he was three years old, and his literacy and memorization satisfied his father in every way, but how could his father treat his son just because of Ling Yu?" This kind of treatment by the minister really makes my son feel cold."

Concubine De was pressed down on a chair, and when she heard the word Ling Yu, she raised her eyelids, spat at Ling Yu, and scolded with a smile: "Bastard, no matter what, Ling Yu can't do such a rebellious act." thing!"

Ling Xuan suddenly walked up to Concubine De, grabbed her arm and dragged her to the emperor, asking, "Father really refuses to write the edict of abdication?"

The emperor glanced at Concubine De, but in just a few months, Concubine De's sideburns were as white as frost and snow. The pain of losing a child hit her too hard. For the heavy.

"Concubine De," the emperor moved his lips, "I..."

Concubine De raised her head slightly, raised her chin to face the emperor, and said in despair: "Your Majesty doesn't need to say anything, the concubine understands."

Seeing that Concubine De had a will to die, Concubine Shu was worried that she would be the next target, so she hugged Ling Jun even tighter.

"Nizi!" The emperor frowned, looked sad, looked at Concubine De with a pale face, and said, "Ling Yu, do you still want to make mistakes again? Are you forcing me to issue an edict for justice, or for your own peace of mind? ?”

Ling Yu sneered and said, "Peace at ease?"

He pushed Concubine De to the ground, stared at her with resentment, and said for a long while: "The day my mother left, I couldn't feel at ease anymore, why should she live carefreely every day, and my mother, dignified? In the end, there will only be one grave for the mother of the Great Jin Kingdom? When I succeed to the throne, I will definitely order the world to publicize the crimes of this wicked woman, and right the reputation of my mother."

The emperor only thought that Ling Xuan was insane.

Ling Yu was unwilling to be reconciled to Concubine De in every possible way, he looked down at Concubine De and smiled grimly: "Since your father gave up the throne and you are not willing to part with the throne, then go and reunite with Ling Yu."

With the knife in his hand, Ling Chu's water-blue brocade robe was splashed with blood. He frowned and kicked Concubine De's body aside in disgust.

He pulled out the blade of the sword and wiped it on Concubine De's body. The sharp sword made a piercing sound as it struck the cold ground, but Ling Yu smiled very satisfied, turned around and looked at Concubine Shu and Ling Jun. Glancing back and forth, he then asked, "Is it because Father doesn't write the imperial edict because he thinks there is Ling Jun besides me?"
