The rumors and turmoil gradually subsided, and time was like a piece of silk, gently and slowly twisting flat, maintaining the expected peace for a long period of time.

Occasionally, Kong Sheng came to visit and mentioned that he had seen the Sheikh beside Hu Yanyan secretly going to Pingping Street. At that time, Han Ying had not yet died, and Guan Tong also went out frequently because of the approaching New Year.

Ti Zhen also understood it when he clicked it.

Wen Yuan said worriedly: "I don't know what this Han Ying said, but he actually instigated so many people to target you. Girl, Hu Yanyan is not a good person!"

"I've known it for a long time, and there's nothing to be shocked about." She said calmly, "In the final analysis, Hu Yanyan just wants to push me down from this position to make room for his own daughter. As for Guan Tong, it's simpler. Now, he will harm anyone who is in danger to his master."

Wen Yuan's dark eyes said, "In this case, why not take advantage of this opportunity and end Guan Tong first."

Ti Zhen smiled meaningfully, "Because of the interests of those who gathered together, they made up a good show to throw dirty water on me. If Guan Tong is killed, Hu Yanyan will not have to find another internal agent to cooperate?"

"Dark chess is always more complicated than open cards. Simply because of Hu Yanzan's death and the diamond powder incident, Wen Yu no longer believes in him. Just let Hu Yanyan continue the trick with him. We stay tuned."

In this way, the matter remained silent. Although it seemed as if nothing had been heard on the surface, in the heart he understood what Han Ying had not said in the past. The so-called not letting her have an easy life was nothing more than instigating those who had different intentions to turn their spears against the emperor. Give half to yourself.

Now she can no longer sit still. A "female protagonist on behalf of Wei" has almost made herself into a monster that will cause harm to the country. It can be seen that when Wen Yu ascends to the Jinluan Palace in the future, how many people will she face.

I couldn't help but smile sadly, it was already the sixth year of Guangchu, and everything seemed illusory like a floating dream.

The emperor's health was not as good as before, and his energy was gradually declining. Although the prince was already sixteen years old, he was still young and vigorous. Many times, the affairs of the government were handled by Wen Yu and You Cunxu.

With half the right to speak, the status of the Shi family has also risen. Gu Chang has been promoted from the household clerk to the minister of the household. Shi Shen is mediocre, but he can barely hold the idle position of a fifth-grade scholar.

Of course, Shi Shen was not satisfied with this arrangement. After all, Gu Chang entered the court later than him, but he directly dumped him as the second-rank Great Yuan.

Occasionally, Xianyu came to chat and joke, and Ti Zhen couldn't help but smile bitterly, "If my brother really has Wei Qing's ability and can fight for me on the battlefield and fight for fame, I won't worry about the threats of Hu Yanyan and others. The suffering lies with him. He is really not an official, and he is not here to bring some glory to the Shi family. I wish he could be dismissed from his post right now, so as not to cause more trouble and ask me to wipe his ass."

Xianyu picked up a cotton futon and stroked it, "It seems that the matter of Princess Ruyang still makes you brood."

Unconsciously, she looked at Ling Yue, who was chasing and playing with Wen Xiu and Wen Yuan, "Time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, Yue'er will run away and call her aunt. I heard that Yue'er didn't want anything when she caught Zhou Zhou. He has captured his own mother and will not let her go. This shows that Shi Fang will not have to worry about having a wise master in the future."

Hearing this, Ti Zhen nodded with a smile, "Daughter... is always the person closest to the mother's bloodline. Back then, my mother gave me the stone boat that had cleared the obstacles. What I can do is to take care of the stone boat and make it more prosperous. Give it to her once you’re done.”

Xianyu nodded slightly and couldn't help but pause for a moment, "Have you visited Zhou Yishui and Naijin during the Chinese New Year this year?"

Ti Zhen's smiling face soon turned to shame, "I go there every year and come back in vain. I have nothing to do with Zhou Yishui becoming like this, so no matter how much Sister Cui hates me, she has nothing to say. I think time will heal everything."

Xianyu held her hand to comfort her, "Yes...it will be fine."

The fine raindrops were a light ink color, dark and without any trace of the freshness of spring. Everywhere they went, there was a vast white mist.

After all, such heavy water vapor is not conducive to people's recovery. Yesterday, there was a message in the palace that the emperor had fainted, and today he summoned the prince as soon as he woke up. So far, the door of Ganquan Palace has not been opened.

Many people heard this, but none of them sighed. They probably all knew what was going on - the emperor was dying.

It was still a sunny day. Ti Zhen dressed up as usual and made an appointment with Xianyu to go to Changyin Pavilion to listen to a play. The concubine in bright clothes, with golden steps, was as gorgeous as she should be, but she was still a lot of it, until——

There was the sound of overlapping and hurried footsteps.

As soon as Wen Yufu entered the door, he removed the silk flowers from her head almost as fast as lightning, and said: "Your Majesty is dying. Now that the courtiers and concubines have gone, you should hurry up and clean up."

Ti Zhen was caught off guard and was startled. He quickly asked Wen Xiu and Wen Yuan to get a pure dress and prepare to enter the palace.

The carriage stumbled along the way, and Wen Yu's palms were nervously sweating, as if his heart was at this moment, and it took him a long time to calm down.

He said: "These days, You Cunxu and the prince have been in and out of Ganquan Palace, plotting something. What's even more surprising is that this morning, the emperor also issued an order to Yan Yuanzhao."

"Yan Yuanzhao?" Ti Zhen blinked in a daze, "That's all for the others. Yan Yuanzhao is obviously from Xiangguo. What did the emperor do when he saw her on her deathbed? Could it be that he was afraid that the prince was not qualified, so he wanted to Are you going to unite with Xiangguo to deal with us?"

Wen Yu shook his head, "This man is about to die, but his mind is much clearer than before. If he can guess that his rebellion with King Xiang was a set-up, then we may not be their common enemies." Unconsciously He sighed slightly and said with a bleak tone, "Let's go to the palace first and check the situation first."

The people in the palace had long been in chaos. A few meters away from Ganquan Palace, one could hear the cries of the palace concubines sobbing miserably.

Not long after Ti Zhen and Wen Yufang entered the palace, they heard the emperor ask in a weak tone: "Is it my concubine who is crying? It seems that I will die soon."

Cheng Guibi wiped her tears with a handkerchief and wanted to respond but was speechless. I'm not crying for His Majesty, I'm just crying for myself who is still young but has to be widowed, and pity my life for being a total failure in the end.

Soon the emperor's eyes turned to Wen Yu, "The King of Qin is here too." He blinked and said, "Come here."

Wen Yu understood, quickly lifted up his robe and moved over, knelt down and said, "Your Majesty."

The emperor gave him a gloomy smile and stared straight into his eyes, seemingly unwilling to do so, "The prince is young, many things may not be reliable, and you, as an elder, need to make decisions."

He gestured and ordered Li Guang to hand over a copper seal to him, "This is engraved with the word 'congruo', which was given to me by your father, Emperor Gaozu, which means that I am respectful and docile to his brothers and sisters." Congruo. Your father's painstaking efforts are also my painstaking efforts with you now."

The impact of these words was self-evident. Wen Yu remained calm and just responded with a slight smile.

"You Cunxu!"

A gray figure quickly rushed towards the bed, looking up with tears in his eyes.

The emperor barely managed to hold on and handed the thing to him personally. "This rose gold seal was left by Emperor Gaozu. It is engraved with the word 'imperial power'. Seeing it is like seeing me. From now on...you want to Assist the prince and kill the traitor."

Seeing You Cunxu bursting into tears with gratitude, Ti Zhen knelt behind him as if he had twelve buckets in his heart, "Be calm in your power", wasn't that just telling them to stick to their duties and not covet the throne! In this way, the emperor could be regarded as protecting the grand master You Cunxu, and was completely above them.

From now on, if the two of us stand on equal footing, there will be trouble.

I was thinking wildly in my mind, and those eyes glanced over at some point.

They stared at each other in silence for a long time.

Seeing that she had no inhibitions, the emperor looked silently defeated and whispered: "You... have a good princess..."

Wen Yu was stunned, "What?"

The emperor did not respond, but smiled strangely, "The events of this life are uncertain, and the cause and effect behind my death... I don't know where to go. I hope that King Qin and the princess will take care of themselves, and the future... days... will be long..."

"And...it's very long..."

As he finished speaking, a gust of cold night wind blew in his face and clung to his body silently. He was originally cold, but at this moment he felt surprisingly peaceful and calm.

In a moment of confusion, he suddenly remembered his beloved wife who passed away early - Queen Wen Cheng, that gentle and kind-hearted woman.

With tears in his eyes, he said guiltily, "Yourong...I'm sorry..."

She has no memory of when that happened. He walked towards her in armor and made her promises one after another. Until they sat hand in hand at the highest place, they both ended up dead inexplicably.

He didn't want to remember the scene of separation, but he must remember the beginning of him and her. But tomorrow the sun shines brightly, and he and her son are finally alone.

But he has tried his best, but he just doesn't know...

Tired of thinking, his eyes narrowed, and there was a smell of death that completely deprived him of his last reverie.

The hearts of everyone in the hall also calmed down as he stopped breathing.

Until the eunuch's sharp voice reached his ears: "Your Majesty has passed away——"

Zhuzhou is also called Shier, Shizhou, and birthday. It is a very important ritual in the first-year ceremony. It was first seen in the ancient customs of the Southern and Northern Dynasties and spread among the people.
