Chapter 351: Incompetence
No joke, Song Guichen was sent back to the Du Mansion the next day.

At the same time, Eunuch Lei brought an imperial decree to remove Du Qingshan from the status of Prince Taifu, appoint him as the prefect of Hangzhou, and set off with his family soon.

Du Qingshan let out a deep sigh.

As expected, Empress Liu would never allow herself to be in front of the prince.

Facing the emperor's move, Song Guichen was also aware of it.

Liu Mei arrested her simply because of her status. Even if she really had no dissent, the emperor probably couldn't tolerate the presence of descendants from the previous dynasty at the feet of the emperor.

Song Guichen's expression was gloomy, and he said to Du Qingshan, "I'm the one who got you involved."

"What did Madam say?" Du Qingshan hugged Xiao Chen to his chest, "You and I, husband and wife, what are you talking about. If you say that you are in trouble, it is because of your husband that you have caused Madam. These days, Madam has suffered."

Song Guichen smiled and punched him: "They didn't do anything to me, but your son has been tormenting me a lot these days."

"Really?" Du Qingshan touched Song Guichen and his slightly protruding belly curiously, and scolded, "Little guy, don't be naughty, just stay there and don't torment your mother, or I'll turn around and dad will spank your ass!"

What he said made Song Guichen smile coquettishly.

Du Qingshan suddenly said: "Hey, that's not right, how does Madam know that there is a boy in her belly?"

"Well!" Song Guichen made a detour, "The mountain people have their own tricks."

Two people here you Lennon me Lennon.

Du Qi and A Cui stared helplessly outside the door.

A Cui: "I'll just say it's okay, you don't worry about it, do you think there is something wrong with brother Du and sister Song?"

Du Qi was not surprised: "I see, even if the sky falls, they will look like nothing happened."

Because he will be leaving the capital in a few days, Uncle Wu has been busy cleaning up in the past few days, while Du Qingshan resigned from all social engagements, stayed at home behind closed doors, taught A Cui how to practice martial arts, taught Du Qi how to study, and accompanied Song Guichen Playing chess, life is so leisurely.

Holding tea, Gu Yi looked at Du Qingshan who was painting in the study: "Brother Du, are you going to leave like this?"

"Where is the decree? If you don't go, you have to go." Du Qingshan put down his pen, pointed to the decree on the desk, sat down beside Gu Yi, and took a sip of tea, "Besides, long live Let me go to Hangzhou, isn't it just right, Xiaochen's master is in Hangzhou, so their master and apprentice can also be reunited."

The emperor is still merciful.

Gu Yi sighed: "At the beginning, you called me to the capital, but now you are leaving the capital, but I—"

"Brother Gu." Du Qingshan held Gu Yi's hand, "Now that the Eighth Prince values ​​Brother Gu, I predict that the position of Governor of Kaifeng will belong to Brother Gu sooner or later. If there is a day, the crown prince will rely on Brother Gu." is you."

"you--"

Gu Yi looked at Du Qingshan in surprise.

Du Qingshan lowered his voice: "The crown prince is young, I'm afraid he won't be able to survive this winter, the crown prince is not close to her because Empress Liu is in power."

"Brother Du, stop talking." Gu Yi stopped Du Qingshan.

But Du Qingshan continued: "These days, Empress Liu has taken frequent actions to suppress courtiers who do not support her in the court. I am just one of them. Now the Eighth Prince is the prefect of Kaifeng, and he is at the forefront of the limelight. At that time, the Empress still had some scruples, if Long Live is not here, I am afraid that the Eighth Prince will be the first to suffer."

"Brother Du doesn't know something. The Eighth Prince is asking to resign from his position as Kaifeng Governor these few days."

Gu Yi looked serious.

Now loyal ministers and good generals can't take care of themselves, and the capital has become the world of Empress Liu.

When Du Qingshan heard this, he was filled with emotion.

Suddenly someone knocked on the door, and Uncle Wu said from outside: "My lord, someone from the palace is here to see you."

Du Qingshan wondered: "That's strange, who would look for me in this kind of time?"

As he said that, he went out with Gu Yi, but it was the person next to the prince.

"Hey, isn't this Eunuch Hang? Please hurry up."

Eunuch Hang said: "No, the younger one is here today to pass a word on behalf of the prince, and leave as soon as he finishes speaking, don't delay."

"Eunuch, please speak."

Eunuch Hang lowered his voice, leaned into Du Qingshan's ear and said a word, then hurried away.

Gu Yi asked: "Brother Du, what did Eunuch Hang say?"

"The prince wants me to leave Beijing, so please stay safe."

Gu Yi was overjoyed when he heard the words: "The prince intends to keep you. With the help of the prince, things may turn around."

The prince is at Concubine Yang Shu's place at the moment, and he does not want to go to the queen's palace for dinner.

"Miss, I don't want to go to my aunt, I want to be here with you. My aunt never allows me to eat shrimp, crab and seafood. Only with you, my aunt, can I eat such delicious food."

Concubine Yang Shu smiled softly: "You are so big, why are you still self-willed? You have wind-phlegm disease, and the empress is worried that you will be unhealthy if you eat too much. She is painstaking. Besides, the empress is your own mother, you should Go to her and be filial, obedient."

"If you don't go, you won't go!" The prince said stubbornly, "My aunt drove away Master Du, and I don't want to talk to her anymore."

"Nonsense." Concubine Yang Shu tapped the crown prince on the head, "Such words are not allowed to be said again."

"The empress is here—"

When the eunuch's prolonged shouting came, Concubine Yang Shu immediately stood up and saluted.

Empress Liu smiled and came over to help Concubine Yang Shu: "Sister, get up quickly."

After speaking, she looked at the prince, and was about to blame her, but Concubine Yang Shu smiled and said:
"A few days ago, my younger brother sent a few boxes of seafood from outside the palace. I ordered someone to cook them. This little glutton couldn't move his legs when he saw it. He kept pestering him to eat crabs. Children, be greedy. It's normal, sister, don't be angry."

"Sister, it's not that you don't know that the crown prince is weak, so you must not eat more seafood. You spoil him too much. Besides, today is not a day to rest and take a bath, but he doesn't go to study, but is lazy here. fine!"

"I won't go to school! Master Du is gone, I don't want others to teach me!" The prince raised his face and looked at Empress Liu stubbornly, "Unless you let Master Du come back! Otherwise, I won't talk to you anymore! Hmph !"

"You—" Empress Liu was so angry that she raised her hand to hit the prince, but was stopped by Concubine Yang Shu, "Sister, Zhen'er is still a child, so don't argue with him. Zhao Zhen, you haven't apologized to the aunt yet."

"I don't, I won't!"

"well!"

Empress Liu was so angry that she walked away!

Seeing that this trick didn't work, the little prince started a hunger strike again.

Concubine Yang Shu coaxed left and right to persuade, but the prince didn't even eat a bite of food. As a last resort, Concubine Yang Shu had to ask her servants to report to Empress Liu.

When Empress Liu heard this, she said angrily, "If you don't want to eat, then let him starve! He will eat when he is very hungry."

How could the little prince have ever suffered such grievances? Since he was a child, he was well-clothed and well-fed, and his two mothers treated him very well, and he could do whatever he wanted.

Although the aunt is stricter, she is his own mother after all. Although Zhao Zhen is afraid of her, he still respects her in his heart.

Now that he heard that she made him starve, the little prince was anxious and angry. Originally, he just wanted to put on an appearance to soften the aunt's heart, but now he got angry and really didn't want to eat.

This anger and hunger made me fall ill the next day.

The imperial physicians spread the word several times, but there was nothing they could do.

Concubine Yang Shu looked at the hot prince on the bed, wept to the point of tears, and scolded Empress Liu beside her:
"What a cruel sister, you know that Zhen'er has a stubborn temper, but you are so strict with him. Even though he is a prince, he is only in his teens. Why does my sister treat children like this? Now it's like this, but How is it good, how is it good."

Concubine Yang Shu cried and scolded, and Empress Liu felt her brain ache when she heard it.

"do not Cry!"

She comforted Concubine Yang Shu for a while, then turned her head and pointed sternly at the imperial physician who was kneeling on the ground:

"What are you eating? Is there no one in the entire imperial medical bureau who can save the prince! If you just have a fever, you gang of imperial doctors are helpless?"

"Queen Qi, the ministers have prepared a decoction for the prince to take, but the fever still does not subside, the ministers are incompetent."

"Incompetent, incompetent, incompetent! Do you only say 'incompetent' when you encounter problems?"

Empress Liu was very angry.

"If you can't think of a way to save the prince, come and see him!"

　Good guy, it's a holiday!I'm stumped!
