Records of the King of Xin'an County

Li Hui stood quietly in the corner, staring motionlessly at the bed not far away that was surrounded by people.

The panic-stricken and hurried palace people, the anxious and sweaty imperial physicians, and the mournful and weeping family members.All kinds of figures are constantly shaking in front of the eyes, coming and going, going and coming again.Someone seemed to be trying to talk to him, but he couldn't hear anything.It is clear that all the scenes are close at hand, but they seem to be far away from him, like a silent miscellaneous drama—a miscellaneous drama that only he watches.

Many years ago, he also had this kind of experience of separating the world from himself, and being in a daze without realizing it.My grandpa passed away, and my elder brother left Junzhou with his aunt, leaving him alone.For a long time, he couldn't accept such a reality, and the marriage that both looked at and hated each other made him feel even more depressed.

However, today is not what it used to be.He is no longer that young man who can't bear to be alone, no longer a stupid person who is only immersed in his own emotions, but Li Hui, the king of Xin'an County who is determined to protect his family.He just woke up suddenly from a wonderful dream created by his grandfather; he just needs to wake up from the confusion brought about by the illusion of family harmony; he just needs to force himself to adapt and deal with the coming treacherous waves.

Yes, he was sorry-this wonderful dream was too short, and the carefree days brought to him by his loving grandparents were too short.From the bottom of his heart, he hoped that this dream would last longer, and that his grandmother and grandfather would live to be a hundred years old, but it still backfired.Perhaps, this is the irreversible destiny.

From now on, he can no longer indulge himself.No one will pamper and protect him without a bottom line, and no one has the ability to let him indulge.Even though he is the son of Prince Pu, his future is doomed to be impossible.But he is still very grateful that he is the continuation of the blood of his grandfather and grandmother, and he will be able to take care of his healthy and carefree grandparents in the future.

Greed is not enough to swallow elephants. In this year, what he has obtained has far exceeded the twenty years in his previous life.Best friend, grandmother, grandfather, cousin, cousin, cousin... He should be content.He also needs to return to reality as soon as possible to make better preparations for the future of King Pu's lineage.

Although he couldn't think more clearly, Li Hui's heart was still filled with deep grief uncontrollably.Reason told him that the most important thing for him to do was to cry loudly and tell the prince and uncle about his grandfather's fall, so as to gain more sympathy and distress in front of the prince and concubine's aunt.However, the churning emotions in his heart made him unable to say anything or do anything—he really couldn't do it, so he pretended to be in front of his seriously ill grandfather.

"Brother!" The swollen-eyed Princess Changning walked over gently, holding his sleeves tightly, "Brother... grandpa will be fine, right? Huh, grandma is gone, maybe grandpa is gone too Will he leave? No, I want my grandfather to live a long life!! Grandpa can’t leave! Grandpa can’t leave us! I can’t bear him!!” As she spoke, she couldn’t help crying, her eyes filled with fear and uneasiness, as if The scene from half a year ago reappeared.

"..." Li Hui opened his mouth, wanting to comfort her, but before he could say anything, tears welled up in his eyes.He wanted to wipe away his tears in a bit of embarrassment, but he wiped more and more, and finally he could only choke up and say, "Grandfather will be fine, don't worry. Grandmother... Grandmother has a spirit underground, and she will definitely protect grandfather. Yue Niang , we are going to offer incense to grandma now."

Princess Changning was slightly taken aback, and nodded vigorously.Li Hui led her to the mourning hall outside, and respectfully offered incense to Empress Qin.Because when the saint fell down, he was a little flustered, and accidentally tore off a piece of white hanging curtain, exposing a corner of the coffin of Empress Qin—now that the army is in chaos, no one can take care of changing it for a while, it seems more A bit bleak.

So, he stepped forward and pulled the hanging curtain beside him, trying to cover the coffin, and Princess Changning also helped.As soon as the two stood inside the tent, they heard Princess Anxing's voice from outside.There was no one in front of the mourning hall, and her voice was extremely low, but the two behind the curtain could still hear it very clearly.

"Heh, Grandpa has read everyone's name, but not... If brother is still alive... who would forget him?" The noble lord was dressed in Tsing Yi, and looked coldly at Queen Qin's spiritual seat, The corner of the mouth hooked up as if ironically.This blatantly disrespectful attitude towards the deceased aunt made Li Hui and Princess Changning's expressions terrified, showing disgust and vigilance at the same time.

Beside her, Concubine Yang De, who was dressed in plain clothes, was silent for a while, then said: "You still remember him, my mother still remembers him, and you will never forget him." Fair and clean, with an outstanding demeanor, she behaves like the most perfect woman from an aristocratic family.Even if her clothes are very simple, they can't hide her appearance, which is enough to make people understand why her sons, Prince Huai and Princess Anxing, are so favored by the emperor.

"Really?" Princess Anxing snorted with a smile, lowered her eyes, and walked out slowly.Concubine Yang De seemed to want to call her, but after hesitating, she just stared blankly at her back, then turned and went back to the inner room.In fact, Princess Anxing did not go far, and went around to the side hall next to her.

Li Hui lowered his eyes and thought carefully, always feeling that there was a deep meaning in those few words just now.However, he didn't have time to think about it, so he heard Princess Changning say: "Just now Li Qianniang cried all the way in hypocritically. When she saw her grandfather, she fell to the ground and was carried to the side hall. Aunt An Xing was so disrespectful to her grandmother. I can't blame them He will still speak bad things about grandfather and grandmother behind their backs. No, brother, I must go and see." Before he finished speaking, the little guy called two maidservants, and left in a hurry under the pretext of changing clothes.

Li Hui wanted to stop her, but he couldn't call her after she brought up the excuse of changing clothes, so he had to go back to the inner room to look for the princess Du Shi.Only when the Du family arranged for someone to protect Changning princess would it be fair enough.Even if the little guy accidentally taught Princess Anxing and Li Qianniang to find out, forgive them for not daring to do anything.

In today's inner room, Concubine Wang Xian, Concubine Yang De, and Concubine Yan Shu all hid behind the screen, almost crying like pear blossoms and rain.Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Yan are helping Mrs. Du to stand by the sick bed, anxiously watching the imperial doctor acupuncture; Li Kun, Li Heng and Li Tai are kneeling in front of the couch, nervous and crying; Princess Qinghe is sitting by the couch , holding the saint's hand tightly, her whole body seemed to be trembling; Princess Linchuan was ordering her attendants to call all her grandchildren into the palace——

At this moment, except for Li Hui and Princess Changning, Li Qianniang who stayed in the palace for some reason, and the two grandsons of the East Palace, the rest of the people had already left the palace.Li Xin returned to Prince Pu's Mansion, and will be able to enter the palace soon; while Li Wei and Li Jing brothers went to watch the lanterns, it might be more difficult to find them, so they had to call everyone else from Prince Yue's Mansion first.As for the grandsons and granddaughters, they must also come quickly to serve the sick.

"A Hui." Seeing that her son, who had been in a daze in the corner just now, came to her senses, Yan's anxiety eased a bit, "Good boy, go and accompany your grandfather, he called your name just now..."

"My son understands." Li Hui's heart became more serious, and he whispered to Du Shi: "Auntie, send a few more people to call Yue Niang in, grandpa may be thinking of her right now. Just now when the two of us offered incense to grandma , She seemed to see something, and rushed out, but she couldn't stop it." There were too many irrelevant people around, so it was naturally inconvenient for him to speak clearly.

Du Shi has been pregnant for a full seven months, standing with her abdomen upright for a long time, already a little precarious.Hearing that, she couldn't care about herself for a while, and immediately ordered her personal servant to go out, and softly comforted: "Ah Hui was frightened just now? It's okay, we all know that Ah Weng's illness has nothing to do with you , you don’t have to blame yourself. Go ahead, go to the couch and stay with Ah Weng, he will be happy in his heart.”

Li Huisui also came to the sick bed and knelt down, looking at his gray-haired grandfather, and suddenly felt sad.Xu Shi heard the cries of his children and grandchildren, and the sage recalled their names indistinctly.Every time someone is called, he will answer.Li Kun, Li Tai, and Li Heng agreed the most times, followed by Princess Qinghe, Anxing, and Linchuan, and then Li Hui, Princess Changning and other grandchildren.

After a while, the sage called Empress Qin, Li Song, and Li Jue again, but no one could respond.Disappointment seemed to appear on his face, and Li Hui felt distressed, and said to Li Kun in a low voice: "Uncle, please accept, so that grandfather can feel at ease."

Li Kun looked at him with red eyes, took him into his arms and patted him lightly, as if he had accepted his suggestion.Sure enough, after that, every call of the saint was answered, and his expression seemed to be much more stable.And after several rounds of acupuncture by the imperial physician, he also gradually calmed down, closing his eyes as if he had fallen asleep.

At this time, when Li Xin and others finally arrived, Mrs. Zhou also came with Xiao Shouniang in her arms.She is both a granddaughter-in-law and a granddaughter, and she has always admired the saint, so of course she doesn't want to sit in the delivery room anymore.Moreover, if you think about it carefully, she is already about to emerge from the moon, so it shouldn't matter whether it's her body or taboos.

"Your Highness, the sage's head wind attack is already in the form of wind evil entering the body. Although he is sleeping peacefully now, I cannot guarantee whether he will wake up. If the needles are applied every day, it is impossible...to say that he will be able to wake up. But the paralysis of the body is difficult to relieve. The ministers... have done their best." Several imperial physicians knelt down in front of Li Kun, pleading guilty.

Li Kun looked down at them, his voice still choked with sobs: "No matter what, you must do your best to treat Grandpa. Grandpa is the Son of Heaven, God will never treat you lightly!! He is also reluctant to leave Daddy behind. Tang's country has left thousands of Li people, and we brothers and sisters..."

"Yes, I will obey!"

Because the sage needed to rest, the Crown Princess Du invited Concubine Wang Xian, Concubine Yang De, and Concubine Yan Shu back to the palace to rest, and ordered someone to relocate another side hall of the Lizheng Hall for the royal family to rest temporarily.Wang Shi, Yan Shi and others just retreated from the inner room, came to the mourning hall of Queen Qin and waited quietly, and did not dare to take a rest seriously.As for Li Tai and Li Heng, they were already helped out by the palace servants due to excessive grief. Only Li Kun and Princess Qinghe remained in the inner room to serve the sick.Li Xin and Li Wei took the place of their grandfathers and were busy welcoming King Jing, King Peng, King Lu and other clan elders.

Because the atmosphere was so solemn, Princess Changning and Li Jing leaned beside Li Hui involuntarily.The three of them sat silently in the corner, Princess Changning was still in grief and panic, while Li Jing felt guilty in his grief.Li Hui knew that he was regretting that he was only focused on playing tonight and didn't spend time with his grandfather. for one day.

"A Hui, A Jing, come here." Wang Shi and Yan Shi seemed to discuss something, and suddenly said to them.

Li Hui and Li Jing sat down and were held hands by their respective aunts.Then Yan Shi said softly: "Sister-in-law and I have thought about it carefully just now, and Ah Weng still can't let go of the lifelong affairs of the two of you. Why don't you take advantage of the present and decide your marriage quickly, so as to teach Ah Weng Be at ease. Moreover, if he is happy, his condition may improve..."

After hearing this, Li Hui and Li Jing were both stunned.
