After entering the palace gate, Prince Guo, Shumin Ziyue, rode a fast horse and headed straight for the Empress Dowager's Fushou Palace.

"Lü, Lü..." Halfway through the journey, before reaching the destination, he suddenly pulled the rein and stopped.

"What's the matter, master?" He asked, and Feiying, who was following him, asked with concern.

"Why does this king think that the palace man who just opened the palace door for this king is very weird? Logically speaking, the emperor didn't know that this king was coming back today, so why would he open the door early to welcome him?

Besides, even if the emperor knows that the king is coming back, the person who opens the door should be a guard, not a palace servant? "

"This..." Hearing this, Feiying couldn't help frowning.

"Master, when I entered the palace, I vaguely saw two guards lying in the corner of the palace gate."

"Oh? Why didn't you say it earlier?" Hearing this, Shumin Ziyue frowned. Could it be that he accidentally let go of the assassin who sneaked into the palace?

"The master is thinking of the queen mother wholeheartedly, and hurried back to the palace to visit. Therefore, the subordinates did not dare to talk too much." Knowing that his master misses his mother dearly, how dare Feiying talk too much from the sidelines?

"Confused, it's no joke to escape from the palace by injuring the guards and letting go of such arrogant and arrogant young people. Hurry up and get out of the palace and arrest them!"

Angrily reprimanded, Prince Guo ordered the escaped man to be captured.

"Yes!" Taking the order, Feiying turned the horse's head and beat the horse to leave.

"Fight..." Urging the horse, Prince Guo Shumin Ziyue went straight to the Fushou Palace of the Empress Dowager.

"Lü..." At the gate of the palace, Shumin Ziyue grabbed the horse's reins and jumped off the horse's back.

"Prince Fruit!!!"

Seeing someone coming from outside the palace gate, the guard just wanted to step forward to stop him, but saw that the person coming was none other than Shumin Ziyue.He quickly lowered his head, and the guards hurriedly saluted.

Taking big strides in, Shumin Ziyue went straight to her mother's bedroom.

"Slave Xiao Shunzi pays respects to Prince Guo."

Seeing Shumin Ziyue striding forward, Xiao Shunzi standing outside the door and other palace people all bowed their heads and saluted.

"Your Majesty is here?" Shu Min Ziyue couldn't help raising her eyebrows when she saw that the people who were walking around the door were all the palace people around the emperor.

"Yes. The Empress Dowager has been in poor health for the past two days. Therefore, after the court ceremony, Your Majesty will come to Fushou Palace to accompany the Empress Dowager. Your Majesty will not return to the palace until the Empress Dowager falls asleep peacefully at night." Nodding, Xiao Shunzi replied softly.

"Go in and report, and say that the king is back and wants to visit the queen mother." Since His Majesty is here, as a courtier, Shumin Ziyue can't directly break in to visit.

"My lord, please wait a moment, the slave will go and report." After saying that, Xiao Shunzi turned and walked into the door.

Not long after, Xiao Shunzi walked out with a bow.Said to Shumin Ziyue: "Prince Guo, Your Majesty invites you in."

"En!" Nodding, Shumin Ziyue stepped into the room.

After passing through the brightly lit but deserted living room, Shumin Ziyue walked directly into the inner room, her mother's bedroom.

"Greetings to Prince Guo!" Seeing Shumin Ziyue walking in, the four palace servants on the left and right hurriedly bowed down to salute.

Glancing at them, Shumin Ziyue stepped inside and came to her mother's bedside, and saw her mother who was already asleep on the bed and the monarch guarding the bedside.

"I pay homage to Your Majesty for my minister Shu Min Ziyue." Bending down, Shu Min Ziyue knelt down on one knee and saluted quickly.

"Second brother, hurry up and forgive me." Standing up, the monarch hurried forward and helped his elder brother up.

"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager's illness..."

Just when she got up, Shumin Ziyue was anxious and asked about her mother's condition.A pair of eyes has been looking worriedly at the mother on the bed.

"Second brother, the queen mother just took the medicine and fell asleep. Let's go to the front hall to talk!" Saying that, Shumin Zishu pulled the sleeve of the second brother and walked out of the queen mother's bedroom.

After gently closing the door, the two brothers came to the front hall.

"Your Majesty, how is the Empress Dowager's condition?" Shumin Ziyue was still very worried about her mother's health when she asked.

"Second brother, don't worry, my mother's illness has been much better in the past few days under the careful care of Dr. Li."

Knowing that his elder brother was worried about his mother, Shumin Zishu did not dare to neglect, and told his elder brother in detail about his mother's situation.

"That's good, that's good!" Hearing what the third brother said, Shumin Ziyue, who was in a hurry, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"A few days ago, I received a memorial from my second brother. Didn't it mean that it would take more than ten days to reach the imperial capital? Why, it's only been a few days, and my second brother is back?" Smiling, Shumin Zishu whispered to each other. inquire.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, five days ago, I received a letter from my sixth younger brother, and learned that my mother's old illness had relapsed. Therefore, I left the team and rushed back to the imperial capital with a few cronies."

Speaking of this, Shumin Ziyue couldn't help but feel a little worried. Originally, she came back from Jingzhou this time to celebrate the emperor's birthday.He brought a lot of treasures and special products to present to the monarch.

However, when she received a letter from her sixth brother on the way and learned of her mother's condition, Shumin Ziyue left the congratulatory team and rushed back to the imperial capital with a few hidden guards.I don't know if the emperor will blame and punish him for this.

"So that's it, the second brother has worked hard all the way. Sit down and have a cup of tea!" Hearing Zi Yue's words, the monarch nodded slightly and spoke softly, but he didn't have any intention of apologizing.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Hearing this, Shumin Ziyue, who had stood aside for a long time, bent down and sat on a chair beside her.

Not long after, someone from the palace brought hot tea.

Picking up the tea bowl, Shumin Zishu took a sip. "Second brother, is everything going well in Jingzhou?"

"Your Majesty, don't worry. Since the battle of Baishi Valley, the golden-winged barbarians in the south were so scared that they never dared to attack again. For more than half a year, they have been very peaceful. There has been no war." Bowing her head slightly, Shumin Ziyue said Tell me the truth.

"Well, it's all due to the second brother!" Nodding, the monarch praised the brave and skilled Prince Guo.

"Being loyal to the country and guarding the frontier for His Majesty. It is the duty of a minister, and a minister has no shirkable responsibility. How dare you take credit for it?" Shu Min Ziyue quickly replied.
