Be good, call me uncle

Chapter 726 Everyone is looking forward to inheriting the old man’s position
"Is Mr. Feng still waiting outside?" The Queen Mother looked at the prince.

The prince replied respectfully: "Queen Mother, the prime minister is still in the hall at the moment, do you want to call him to come?"

The Queen Mother nodded: "Go!"

Mr. Feng was called over, but the Queen Mother walked out of the back hall and met him outside the door: "Zhong Yuan, you are here."

Zhongyuan is the name of Mr. Feng.

Hearing the Queen Mother calling him affectionately, Mr. Feng raised his hand and said, "Please give me your instructions, Queen Mother."

The Queen Mother said: "The only one the Ai family can rely on now is you. The Ai family is stable in the harem. You have to shoulder this burden in the past. There are also the prince and the second son. The Ai family is now in your hands. The emperor is not awake yet." Come, you will guard them in the palace. With your talents, the Ai family believes that you will not let them do anything wrong."

Mr. Feng reminded: "Queen Mother, the third prince is already 15 years old."

The Queen Mother thought for a while and said: "The Ai family will also send him to your hands. You can help the Ai family watch over him."

Mr. Feng asked again: "Can we invite the clan members to come?"

The Queen Mother pondered for a moment and said: "No, keep it a secret for now! The emperor just fainted, there is no need to alarm the clan. Don't let Zhaohua know this news, he has been forced to live under the suspicion of plotting to usurp the throne his whole life, and the Ai family does not want this. Sometimes, it brings disaster to him."

After a pause, the Queen Mother added: "If something happens to the emperor and a new emperor comes to power, he will be the new emperor's most respected uncle. He will be given honor and dignity, but he can only be King Qi, Zhong. Do you understand the distance?"

Mr. Feng couldn't help but touch his eyebrows - the Queen Mother is not out of her mind, is she?When King Qi didn't want to be the emperor, she tried every means to win over him. But now that King Qi finally wants to fight, she makes people keep to themselves?
However, since the news has been delivered, Mr. Feng will not tell the Queen Mother, but only verbally accepts the Queen Mother's words.

The entire palace was guarded by Jinwu Guards, and patrols of four to eight people could be seen everywhere. Both inside and outside the capital were also under martial law by the imperial guards and the capital garrison. The atmosphere was like a taut string, on the verge of breaking out.

Emperor Jiayou was moved back to Zichen Palace, and more than a dozen imperial doctors tried their best to stabilize Emperor Jiayou's heart.

Mr. Feng led the three princes to handle military and state secrets and people's livelihood matters in the political hall.

The three princes remained silent and sat in front of the case to complete what Mr. Feng had told them.

The prince looked serious, but the suggestions he came up with were not outstanding. Maybe he was just pretending to be serious, and his heart had already flown out. This could be seen from his restless expression.

The official documents excerpted by Changsun Ce were very insightful and his comments were to the point. However, he only read two copies and threw away his cinnabar pen: "Prime Minister Feng, I am worried about my father and cannot read it anymore!"

Changsun Yi couldn't help but sarcastically said: "Fake it."

Changsun Ce immediately retorted: "Do you think you are serious? Don't I know what you are thinking? Save it!"

The third prince is the most attentive. No matter how the prince and the second prince quarrel, he can handle things calmly, well-behaved and serious, and corrects every official document quite perfectly.

Mr. Feng nodded: "Thank you for your hard work, Your Highness."

Hearing Mr. Feng praising himself, the third prince nodded slightly, smiled but said nothing, neither arrogant nor impetuous.

Mr. Feng was greatly alarmed - people who can endure have always been extremely deep-tempered in the city. I am afraid that these three highnesses are not fuel-efficient lamps.

In fact, compared to the prince and the second prince, the third prince's behavior was unusual. He was too calm, as if he was deliberately trying his best to express himself in front of Mr. Feng, and approved the official document so perfectly.

The prince and the second prince quarreled for a few more words before finally calming down in Mr. Feng's eyes.

Mr. Feng said: "Your Majesty is ill. As His Majesty's sons, your three Highnesses should share the state affairs for Your Majesty. The more critical this time is, the more we can't do without our three Highnesses."

"So you should handle these matters more seriously and shoulder the burden to prevent the backlog of official duties from causing chaos in the court. As for His Majesty, there is no point in worrying about it, and His Majesty does not need you to bring tea, pour water, and serve soup, otherwise you will have to do this What are the three thousand palace people doing?"

After hearing this, the prince and the second prince stopped arguing and forced themselves to concentrate on the matter at hand.

At night, Emperor Jiayou finally woke up. Under the dim light, what came into view was a face that was imprinted in his heart and thought about day and night. "A...A'ao!"

In the early years, he didn't think much about the woman who was in his heart. He held the supreme power in the world and could take life and death. He had the ultimate goal of a man. Why would he want to have an affair with his children?
But when he was terminally ill, his longing for Princess Chuanping was like a gangrene on his bones, torturing every inch of his mind.

Especially when he saw Wei Shu's eyebrows and eyes that were similar to those of Princess Chuanping, the longing and guilt buried deep in his heart reached its peak in an instant.

He is the Lord of Ten Thousand Vehicles, but at this moment he is so fragile, so vulnerable in the face of a regret that cannot be achieved.

"Your Majesty, are you awake?" Wei Shu diligently helped him up, put a quilt and pillow on his back, and then brought him tea to drink.

Emperor Jiayou was very pleased to see Wei Shu busy.

After taking a sip of tea, he asked Wei Shu, "What's wrong with me?"

Wei Shu's eyes turned red and he did not dare to look directly at Emperor Jiayou. He turned his head and said, "No, it's nothing. Your Majesty is in good health."

At the end of the sentence, I even got a little choked up.

His appearance made Emperor Jiayou's heart completely freeze.

Wei Shu hurriedly called the imperial doctor on duty outside to check Emperor Jiayou's pulse. The imperial doctor said nothing, but added a few more precious medicinal materials to the prescription.

It seems that these century-old snow lotuses are being used to hang up Emperor Jiayou's life.

After the imperial doctor left, Emperor Jiayou asked the prince: "What happened to me?"

The prince wanted to speak but stopped.

"Say!" Emperor Jiayou was so excited that he coughed violently.

The prince hurriedly cheered him up, and after a long murmur, he said: "Your Majesty, the imperial doctor said that there are too many toxins deposited in your body, leading to poisoning and coma."

Emperor Jiayou gasped for air, and it took him a long time to speak clearly: "Poisoned? What kind of poison? There are dozens of palace officials who check everything I drink and eat. How can I be poisoned?"

The prince lowered his head deeply and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, there is another thing that no one in the palace has tried to poison..."

"Eunuch Wang! The matter has not been clarified yet, please be careful what you say!" Wei Shu quickly interrupted him.

Even if the prince didn't say it, Emperor Jiayou could still hear what he was referring to.

Of course it was the elixir offered by the prince.

"Royal doctor! Royal doctor!" Emperor Jiayou called loudly.

A dozen or so doctors who had just gone out trotted in again. Seeing Emperor Jiayou's face turn blue, they wanted to check his pulse, but Emperor Jiayou pointed to the box where the elixirs were stored: "Wei Shu... take... show them !”

It was hard to disobey the holy order, so Wei Shu had no choice but to give the box to several imperial doctors.

The imperial doctor took turns to test it, and finally came to a conclusion: "Your Majesty, the elixir contains cinnabar. Although the amount is very light, taking too much will definitely cause poisoning."

Emperor Jiayou lowered his head slowly, with a dejected look, and his hands hung by his side, as if he had entered death.

After a long time, Emperor Jiayou said in a weak voice: "Wei Shu, go and call the prince over to me."
