Are you stupid?

Chapter 25 [VIP]

Empress Cui has been in the harem for more than 20 years, and she has never lost her composure like this, but now she can't bear it at all.

Empress Cui turned back to La Taixing Emperor with tears in her eyes, choked up, "Your Majesty, have you read it? Our son is recovering!"

Why isn't Emperor Taixing excited?He hugged Empress Cui with his back, nodded repeatedly, and was so excited that he couldn't even speak.

As a "miracle witness", Mu Huaiyuan stood in the corner of the room and never left.He saw how Shenlong was being hugged by Emperor Taixing and Empress Cui several times and rubbed against the wound, shivering in pain and unable to move casually, felt pity in his heart, couldn't help interrupting the surprise of the most honorable couple in the world Repeated nonsense.

"Your Majesty, Empress, the injury on the back of the Second Highness has not been treated yet."

"Yes, yes, Shenlong's injury!" Empress Cui immediately threw away her husband, and carefully supported Shenlong's shoulders to make him turn his back, exposing the wound behind him.

The boy's back was still thin, and the red flesh that had festered after being burned was exposed on the white brocade-like skin.

The tears that Empress Cui had just stopped fell from her eyes again, she turned her face away quickly to prevent the tears from falling on the wound and hurting him again, "My son, why are you so miserable."

Shenlong turned his back to Empress Cui, and tried his best to comfort him, "My son is cured of his headache now. You are lucky, and the queen mother should not be sad. I have to show up at the banquet later, and the mother's eyes are red, so she can't show her beauty in the harem. "

"You child, what nonsense are you talking about. How old am I, and I am still in the harem." Empress Cui saw her son's muscles tremble when he touched his back lightly in pain, and he was still talking to comfort herself. Also a little annoyed that he refused to cherish himself.

"In my heart, the queen mother is the most beautiful woman in the world." Shenlong refused to change his words after being knocked down. He finished his coaxing words on his own, and then said with a playful smile, "It really hurts. Let the imperial doctor continue to treat the wound for the child." .”

He looked back at Empress Cui and Emperor Taixing pitifully, his ears and face flushed with embarrassment, "My minister is so painful that he dare not touch his clothes now, when he is waiting for courtiers and wives to visit at the banquet, You can't be naked."

"The imperial doctor is coming soon." Emperor Taixing shouted excitedly.

Since the beginning of spring, Emperor Taixing said in the court that he had lost his eldest son and let Shenlong, the heir in line, be the crown prince. No matter whether he was close to him or not, the courtiers in the court ran against Emperor Taixing openly and secretly, saying that he had lost his head. He will insist on going his own way and let a fool enter the East Palace.

Empress Cui's words in the court hall deeply entered Emperor Taixing's heart. He is the prince who was once denied by the emperor. If he himself cannot insist on the system of heir succession, it is tantamount to denying the foundation of Emperor Taixing's accession to the throne. Therefore, Emperor Taixing, who was always weak, was stubborn once in a while.

However, Emperor Taixing didn't know whether "Crazy" was suitable to be the crown prince of a country.

He has been comforting himself with "Linde's death is strange, presumably the ancestors are more interested in Shenlong" to comfort himself, today's change made Emperor Taixing believe in this mysterious and mysterious destiny.

Shenlong is the second son, but also an idiot. He should have missed the East Palace, but the mysteriousness of Shenlong has been created by coincidences again and again. The most important thing is that this time after offering sacrifices to his ancestors, he returned to the palace inexplicably sober.

"Mu Huaiyuan, tell me what's going on."

"Yes." Mu Huaiyuan bowed his head and stepped forward.

Mu Huaiyuan is a very smart person. The first time Emperor Taixing saw him, he knew that Emperor Taixing didn't have the courage to face his face. So, when Emperor Taixing called his name, Mu Huaiyuan Yuan always maintained a posture that made Emperor Taixing not see his face clearly, so as to prevent Emperor Taixing from being frightened and causing troubles.

"Reporting to Your Majesty and Empress, I followed the prince to the Taimiao to offer sacrifices today. The journey was safe and smooth. After the ceremony, His Highness looked exhausted and fell asleep after getting into the carriage. I slept soundly. The minister thought that His Highness would sleep more heavily if he was tired from practicing martial arts on weekdays, so he asked the palace servants to silence, drove straight all the way into the inner hall of Chengqing Hall, and sent His Highness back to the bedroom. The ladies were worried about sleeping. Uncomfortable, I undressed and undressed His Highness, but His Highness never woke up. Because of tonight's banquet, I was worried that His Highness would forget the steps to take, so I stayed in the room to let His Highness rest for a while and then woke His Highness to review Unexpectedly, I suddenly smelled a burnt smell, and His Highness woke up screaming at the same time."

"I saw a bright flame behind His Highness, and when I ran over from the window, I moved an iceberg and fell on His Highness's back. After that, the scene that His Majesty and Empress saw. What happened to His Highness in the curtain, I will ask I don't know."

After Mu Huaiyuan finished speaking, he raised his head, and the candlelight shone on Mu Huaiyuan's face.

The light in his eyes flickered, and Emperor Taixing seemed to be surrounded by two will-o'-the-wisps. He stepped back in fright, his mind was in a mess, and he couldn't think at all.He mumbled "Ah, ah" a few times, grabbed his sleeve and wiped the cold sweat from his brow, and said with a forced smile, "It really is the blessing of the ancestors."

Empress Cui also saw that Emperor Taixing looked at Mu Huaiyuan with something wrong, so she pushed her husband away and walked over to ask Shenlong again.

Shenlong shook his head directly, "The memory of the past few years after falling into the water is vague, and I don't even have the memory of going to the Taimiao sacrifice today. A sharp pain woke up my son, and there seemed to be a very mysterious voice saying 'heavenly fire' in my ear." something like that."

Shenlong's white and delicate face was full of confusion, but soon he showed a relieved smile, "My son never expected to be able to be here again after an accident. It must be because the mother prayed to the gods every day and got an answer."

Hearing the "accident" in Shenlong's mouth once, Emperor Taixing and Empress Cui fell silent. They looked at the imperial physician who was treating Shenlong's wound with scruples, and kept silent until the imperial physician applied the wound medicine to Shenlong and explained to be careful After the matter left, Emperor Taixing touched the top of Shenlong's head with some embarrassment, "It has caused you to suffer all these years."

"Father, the sons and ministers have always understood. The elder brother is the eldest son. Both the father and the queen have high hopes for the elder brother. Moreover, the elder brother is hardworking and responsible. He always wants to share the father's worries. It is much better than me who can only pester the mother and make trouble. The eldest brother was supposed to inherit the lineage—by the way, father and mother, why didn’t the eldest brother come over?” Shenlong suddenly asked about Linde’s whereabouts after speaking.

Empress Cui and Emperor Taixing looked at each other, neither knowing what to say.

In the end, Emperor Taixing pointed at Mu Huaiyuan and asked dryly, "Shenlong, do you still remember who this person is?"

Shenlong nodded joyfully, "Father chooses a companion for my minister, I know him."

The luck in Emperor Taixing's heart was gone, he waved his hand feebly, motioning for Mu Huaiyuan to explain.

In a few words, Mu Huaiyuan explained clearly that the eldest prince Linde fell and broke his neck on the way to sacrifice to the Taimiao, Shenlong succeeded him as the prince, and there were six more companions selected from classics by his side.

Shenlong opened his mouth wide, and sat back on the bed with exhaustion. He didn't speak for a long time. After a while, he closed his eyes and shed two lines of tears.

Even if he didn't say anything, Shenlong set off the atmosphere well.

Empress Cui gave Emperor Taixing a push, and said unhappily, "It's a good thing for Shenlong to regain his sanity. What are you doing about Linde?"

She asked Mu Huaiyuan to seize the time to teach Shenlong the procedure of the dinner, hugged her son for a while, and pulled Emperor Taixing away from Chengqing Hall.

After going out, Emperor Taixing asked Empress Cui, "Why doesn't Yingniang let me see Shenlong more?"

Empress Cui sneered at Emperor Taixing, "Shenlong is already sober, Your Majesty, doesn't he know why he fell into the water and why he has been in a daze all these years? But Shenlong never complained, and he is still comforting us two Linde's death and debts are gone, but Shenlong's grievances can be justified. In order for Linde to be buried in His Majesty's mausoleum, even if Shenlong wakes up, we can't give him justice. Don't leave sooner and let Shenlong himself Calm down your mood, should you still let him pretend to be magnanimous for this?"

"But tonight's feast for the officials, if Shenlong loses his temper..."

"Shenlong has been sensible since he was a child, and he has never lost his temper. He is so good that we can forget him with peace of mind. Your Majesty, don't talk about it anymore. I think of what I have owed to Shenlong all these years, and my heart feels like a knife is twisted." Empress Cui burst into tears. , Said so that Emperor Taixing felt guilty and short of breath, and did not dare to mention any past events.

He muttered in a low voice, "Didn't I think that tonight Shenlong would show his face in front of the officials for the first time in more than seven years, and wanted them to shut up and stop talking about Shenlong's lack of intelligence. How ugly are these words, Yingniang will accompany me Come here, don't you know?"

The husband and wife stopped talking and sighed together.

Emperor Taixing and Empress Cui did not give a password to the imperial physician who entered the palace to diagnose and treat Shenlong. The imperial physician rushed into the palace at such a delicate time. Many officials with clear eyes and ears immediately got information from the imperial physician after he left the palace. The news that the prince had recovered from his illness and his mind was completely healed caused a lot of discussion for a while.

Most of the officials had heard it and laughed it off, they just thought it was a farce co-acted by Emperor Taixing and the imperial physician, just to support the new crown prince.But several of the emperor's close ministers did not believe that Emperor Taixing would joke about such a thing.

Zhang Xi and Wang Hong got together, winked and said in a low voice, "Brother, do you think this is true or not?"

Wang Hong stretched out his sleeves, pointed to the sky quietly, and said mysteriously, "I don't know what brother thinks, but I have some faith in my heart. Didn't it mean that when I first raised my army, I became attached to fire? Is it something about the young gods? Brother, think about it carefully, is it not surprising that His Highness died in the first place? Then a heavy rain brought so many guards, slaves and servants without even a fever, and it happened that His Highness fell off the horse The neck was broken, and the second prince came back with a high fever."

He glanced left and right to make sure that no one was looking at the two of them, and said meaningfully: "After the second highness had a high fever, there were rumors that the second highness was smarter than before. This time, he went to the Taimiao again! Although what to say?" Tianhuo's words are too vain, but it is easy for a smart person to pretend to be a fool, but it is difficult for a fool to pretend to be smart! Your Majesty will not embarrass himself by telling a blatant lie."

"What Brother said makes sense." Zhang Xi actually thought the same way, but he didn't feel at ease if others didn't say it again.

Zhang Xi made up his mind, and asked his wife and daughter to visit Empress Cui's natal house tomorrow to inquire about specific news.
