Chapter 63
Chu Shiyu didn't wake up until midnight. Ye Lanyi stayed by his side and administered a few doses of medicine according to the doctor's orders. Only then did Chu Shiyu's breathing calm down a little.

Ye Lanyi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You guys go down first."

"Yes." The imperial physician and attendants withdrew one after another, Yan Qingyao coaxed Chu Yun to sleep, and said, "You should also take a rest, I'll watch over here."

Ye Lanyi sighed and said, "There have been too many things recently."

Yan Qingyao pulled Ye Lanyi to sit on the couch next to her, and said, "Look at your son, I don't hug him very often all day long."

"By the way, how is the right minister?" Ye Lanyi straightened the red string on Chuyun's wrist, and said, "I just heard someone say that the right minister has woken up."

"Well, it's just..." Before Yan Qingyao finished speaking, Yuan Lu whispered that the right minister had come.

"Please come in." Yan Qingyao said.

Xu Zheng stumbled in with the help of Yuan Lu, saw that Yan Qingyao and Ye Lanyi were about to salute, but was stopped, Xu Zheng leaned in front of Chu Shiyu, and knelt on the ground.

Chu Shiyu didn't sleep well, and woke up after hearing the movement. He raised his eyes to look at Xu Zheng, and said softly, "The right minister is here."

Xu Zheng nodded, and he said in a hoarse voice: "The old minister knows why His Majesty is worried, but everything must be carefully sorted out and not rushed. Your Majesty, you must take care of the dragon's body and stabilize the foundation of our great Yu."

Chu Shiyu held Xu Zheng's hand tightly and said, "But, I'm really tired... sir."

In the past, Chu Shiyu always referred to Xu Zheng as Mr., even Yan Yingzhen did not have such a title. Since Emperor Chongwen came to the throne, the title "Mr." has disappeared since then.When Xu Zheng heard him call Mr., his heart ached, he held Chu Shiyu's cold hand, and was speechless for a while.

Chu Shiyu was very cold, he closed his eyes and endured the pain, and said, "Sir, I don't want... I don't want to be an emperor anymore..."

There was a lump in his throat, and his voice was stained with tears. Xu Zheng looked at Chu Shiyu's pale face with tears in his eyes, and said softly, "Your Majesty... the old minister is still here, and the old minister can still help your majesty..."

"I... can't protect... I can't protect Dayu..." Chu Shiyu's black brows frowned, the tears from the corners of his eyes ran across his hair and disappeared into the pillow, without a trace, but Xu Zheng saw clearly in the eyes.

Xu Zheng knew how bad Chu Shiyu was. He had been watching him since he succeeded to the throne.

Yan Qingyao and Ye Lanyi didn't make a sound, they stood by the couch, watching the emperor who was worshiped by everyone on weekdays, crying uncontrollably, weak like a wronged child.

They all understand in their hearts, but at the moment everything is stuck in their throats, because there is no need to say it, because it is impossible to say it.

Xu Zheng raised his hand to caress Chu Shiyu's brow, and said, "Your Majesty... Sir, I told you that eyebrows are like mountains and rivers, and you can't let them wrinkle. In this way, no matter what happens, Your Majesty can find a way to solve it."

"Sir..." Chu Shiyu cried out.

He wiped Chu Shiyu's tears away, and said: "A man does not flick his tears lightly...Your Majesty, these tears can only be shed for the thousands of people in Dayu. If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight. Mr. Teach Those who passed you, you...do you still remember?"

Chu Shiyu nodded slightly, he slowly opened his eyes, and looked at the golden crouching dragon entangled on the top of the bed. At that time, when he was serving Chulian, he only thought it was so majestic and domineering, but now he suddenly felt that this The dragon is curled up here and weeping secretly, it looks so pitiful and helpless.

Mostly everything in this world is originally what the heart desires, but after a long time, even if it can be seen, it will never be touched.

***
The horse passed the city gate, the guard recognized Zhuo Ran and immediately let him go, but when he reached the corner of the alley, Zhuo Ran fell off his horse.She huddled in the corner of the wall and coughed for a while, barely swallowing the fishy sweetness in her throat, and she was fine when she returned to Gaodu. Zhuo Ran raised her eyes and looked at the road by the light. Yongniang and Kang Shengan decided to rest. Zuixue Court is still far away, how to get there.

It was relatively dark at night, Zhuo Ran raised her hand to cover the horse's nose, she panted for a while, and said, "Thank you tonight, you should leave quickly, go back and forth from wherever you are."

The horse shook its mane as if it understood, then turned and ran away.

Zhuo Ran supported the wall and stood up, she limped forward, she didn't know where she was closer, and fell to the ground again after taking a few steps.

Fortunately, it was late at night, if it were changed to daytime, it would be a shame.

Zhuo Ran endured it for a while, then raised her eyes to vaguely see someone, she wondered if she was hallucinating.The little man hurried over, and after looking at it for a long time, he recognized that it was Zhuo Ran.

"...Wu Song?" Zhuo Ran said hoarsely, "Why are you here?"

Wu Song supported Zhuo Ran to stand up, and said: "The master's high fever has not subsided. I have been tossing around until midnight. I will see the doctor. I saw Mr. Si Ye in front of the gate of the house, so I came to have a look."

Zhuo Ran frowned and said, "Haven't you retreated yet?"

Wu Song nodded, and said: "The imperial physicians can't do anything, and His Majesty fell ill today, so all the imperial physicians have entered the palace. Sir Si Ye, are you injured?"

"It's all right." Zhuo Ran moved her legs and said, "Go back, your master should be watched by someone."

Wu Song insisted on dragging Zhuo Ran into the governor's mansion. Li Xunchuan's cheeks were very red and he was sweating all the time, but it was useless.Zhuo Ran endured the dizziness and said, "Has your master used any medicine?"

"No." Wu Song put down the gauze curtain to block Li Yanchuan, lit a few more lamps, and said, "I haven't woken up the master."

Gu Zhao rested in the imperial army at night, and only Wu Song and a guard were left in the mansion, as well as a large group of guards and maids. Zhuo Ran sighed slightly and said, "Let's make the medicine first, and I'll see if I can wake him up."

Wu Song responded.Zhuo Ran was sitting in the gauze tent, she raised her hand to take away the veil on Li Yanchuan's forehead, covered her lips and coughed for a while before recovering, Zhuo Ran shook Li Yanchuan, and said, "Li Chiyue, wake up."

Li Yanchuan didn't move much, but Zhuo Ran felt that she was going to be quiet too. She lay on the edge of the bed and held Li Yanchuan's hand, saying, "Li Chiyue, if you don't wake up, I will cut you with a knife."

Zhuo Ran continued to shake Li Yanchuan, calling Li Chiyue in his ear over and over again. After about a quarter of an hour, Li Yanchuan's fingers curled slightly and began to tighten slowly.

Zhuo Ran smiled and said in a low voice: "There are many things I want to tell you, wake up quickly."

Li Xunchuan really opened his eyes, but they were slammed shut by the strong light. Zhuo Ran heaved a sigh of relief. She leaned against the bed and said softly, "I've woken up..."

Li Xunchuan got used to the light, he raised his eyes to look at Zhuo Ran, and felt that her complexion was pale, and she smelled blood faintly, and his palm was holding the sweat of someone who didn't know.He moved his lips and said hoarsely, "Are you hurt?"

Zhuo Ran closed his eyes and didn't answer, Li Yanchuan stood up and pulled the gauze curtain aside, the candlelight completely shone on this person, and Li Yanchuan realized that her clothes were covered with blood.

"What's going on?" Li Yanchuan tried his best. Although Zhuo Ran was wearing black clothes, he could see the bleeding very clearly. Li Yanchuan frowned and said, "Why didn't you treat the injury?"

Zhuo Ran shook her head, said with a soft smile, "If you don't wake up, that little man will almost go blind from crying."

Wu Song watched the fire, and hurriedly brought over the medicine. He was very happy to see Li Yanchuan woke up, but was sent away by Li Yanchuan.

Zhuo Ran leaned on the soft pillow, Li Xunchuan bandaged her up, and changed into clean clothes, both of them leaned against the bed to breathe, Li Xunchuan said: "Who hurt you?"

"I don't know." Zhuo Ran closed her eyes, she thought for a while, and said, "This time, I did it outside Gaodu City. I didn't let Chang Yinyu follow, and I was injured only because of a temporary loss."

Li Xunchuan pinched his forehead and said, "Be careful when you go out in the future. The wound is deep, and it is obviously aimed at your life. If you lose too much blood, you will be cold. I will hold you to sleep in a while."

Zhuo Ran sighed, Wu Song sent the medicine and came in and then closed the door and retreated. Li Xun Chuan closed his breath and stuffed the medicine, and held Zhuo Ran in his arms, being careful not to hurt the injury.

"The injury on the leg didn't hurt the muscles and bones, so don't take a bath for the next few days." Li Xunchuan said in a muffled voice, "Let Chang Yinyu follow him all the time."

Zhuo Ran didn't speak, she warmed up a little bit, quietly raised her eyes to look at Li Yuchuan, and said softly: "Chi Yue... I just thought I couldn't wake you up."

Li Xunchuan said helplessly: "I'm fine, I just have a fever, and it's rumored that I'm about to die."

"Wu Song is sad." Zhuo Ran was in pain, she frowned, Li Yuchuan stretched out his hand, patted her on the back lightly, and said, "Be good, the pain will be gone in a while."

"Chi Yue...cough cough..."

Li Xunchuan responded vaguely. He rubbed Zhuo Ran's back and said, "Sleep, I have something to say...tomorrow..."

It is already tomorrow.

Zhuo Ran is used to getting up when the time comes, and she will open her eyes naturally when the time comes.As soon as Zhuo Ran opened her eyes, she reached out to touch Li Xunchuan's forehead, tried the temperature, but it was still very hot, Zhuo Ran sighed, covered the wound on her arm and turned over.

"What's wrong?" Li Yanchuan asked.

Zhuo Ran pulled the quilt back, and said as if she came back to her senses: "I forgot... I will take a rest today."

Li Xunchuan put his hand on her forehead and said, "You also have a little fever, take some medicine later."

Zhuo Ran covered her lips and coughed a few times, she said: "Your hands are too hot, I don't have a fever. You can sleep a little longer, I will tell Wu Song to decoct the medicine."

Li Xunchuan shook his head and said, "I have something to tell you, don't leave."

Zhuo Ran said: "I won't leave, you can tell me."

"Fang Hu has already been taken to the Ministry of Criminal Justice by Wang Jitong. If my predictions are correct, Fang Hu will definitely be given the name of committing suicide in fear of crime." Li Yuchuan said: "If they can't find out, they will use their lives in exchange for closing the case. In the end, things can only be ended hastily, and nothing has changed in essence."

Zhuo Ran resisted coughing and said, "Someone set up a trick to frame us all, just to make us feel that this thing is very strange, but we can't find any clues, so we can only be suspicious and cause internal divisions."

"Dividing the power of Gaodu, isn't this what you have always wanted to do?" Li Yuchuan said, "But there is someone who is more ruthless than you, one step faster, and this person may stay with us, it is too dangerous."

Zhuo Ran raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "Don't you suspect that I did it?"

Li Xunchuan smiled and said, "Will anyone believe the news? My Xiaqiu, you have been taught very well, but you are really not ready to deal with this person behind the scenes."

"Li Chiyue." Zhuo Ran said, "Have you ever doubted Li Chengru?"

Li Xunchuan closed his eyes and said, "I think the same as you, but I don't have enough evidence." Li Chengru has nothing to do with these things on the surface, and because he has served in front of Chu Shiyu for many years, no one will Trust him to do these things.After all, he is an old minister in the palace, and he is very popular, and few people believe him.

Zhuo Ran said: "These things still need to be sorted out. Get up first, you have to use the medicine again."

Li Xunchuan got up slightly, squeezed Zhuo Ran's wrist and pressed her under him, smiled slightly, and said, "So virtuous?"

Zhuo Ran sighed and said, "Could it be that the Governor has forgotten why you are sick?"

"Of course it's for you." Li Xunchuan leaned down and said, "Your second master was strong and strong after carrying the cold wind for a long time that day. If it was someone else, he would have been unable to hold it."

Zhuo Ran knew that Li Yanchuan must not know what the doctor said, so she sighed and said, "I'm really not ashamed. Does the governor know what the doctor said?"
