home in the end

Chapter 262
The fifth prince returned to the mansion with a pale face and locked himself up. The courtiers had their own thoughts, and perhaps only the emperor thought it was just an awkward dispute between mother and son. In fact, to a certain extent, the emperor's thoughts were still very simple. He sat on the throne just by chance because he took advantage of the right time, place, and people, and picked up the two best princes who were fighting with each other. Back then, the old Hou Ye chose him among the many princes because he was "unusable". , in order to live in peace with the royal family, it was only when the queen disturbed it that it was messed up. Fortunately, the emperor gave birth to a good son for Da Zhou, and the old Hou Ye's heart was more balanced.

It's just that after the fifth prince left, the queen called the prince into the palace again. Now even the emperor felt that it was abnormal. It's just a pity that the queen's management in the harem for so many years was not for nothing. Except for the mother and son, no one Knowing what happened to them, they had no choice but to study the prince's facial expressions, eyes, etc., hoping to get some hints.

But obviously, they were doomed to fail. The crown prince was different from the fifth prince. He left the Queen's Palace with that warm signature smile as before, and his expression did not change until he entered the prince's mansion.

The prince was not as calm as he appeared on the surface, he knew that many people were staring at him, so he had no choice but to suppress the turmoil in his heart and rush back to the prince's mansion.

He thought that the queen mother came to him to ask him to spare the fifth brother, but obviously, he underestimated the queen mother.

The queen didn't say anything when she saw him, she just handed him a box and told him that it was something she had been operating for many years. She originally wanted to give it to the fifth prince, but the fifth prince was not suitable, so she gave it to him now. he!

Before he could figure it out, the queen threw another weight: "If you don't understand anything, just go to Mr. Liu, he will listen to you completely."

Eunuch Liu is the queen's representative outside, and many things are done through him. The queen pushed him out... The prince looked up at her in confusion.

The queen smiled slightly, but the smile was a bit bitter, "You were chosen by your grandfather, he has great vision! I have hated him for the rest of my life, and I have been ashamed of him for the rest of my life, but in the end I have to follow the path he arranged."

The prince came out just like that, the queen didn't let him let the fifth prince go, and the prince didn't promise, but both of them knew that as long as the fifth prince didn't do too much, his life would be saved!

The crown prince still hasn't figured out what happened back then, and even the little uncle seems to be guessing, and doesn't know much about what happened back then.

It's just that the past is over, and it's meaningless to pursue it anymore!

The following actions were quick and smooth. The power of the fifth prince in the court was suppressed, and those who had almost no ability to resist voted for the prince. It's not that they didn't have the ability.

It has been in business for many years, even a struggle is enough for the prince. This is also the reason why the prince has been unwilling to do anything openly. It's just that the fifth prince seems to have lost interest in the affairs of the court and shut himself in the mansion without going out. They knew the people inside the Fifth Prince very well, and some of them were even warned not to act rashly. Thinking that the Fifth Prince and the crown prince had both been to the Queen's Palace two days ago, they had some guesses in their minds, so they stopped resisting.

Only one of the Ou family is still struggling, but Concubine Ou Guifei turned a blind eye to the sign handed in by the Ou family. The struggle was much milder, and there was no death,

The emperor finally came out of the Oupin Palace, his face was ashen, no matter how dull he was, he would have expected something to happen. The fifth prince and the prince joined forces, more precisely, the queen and the prince joined forces. The emperor sat on the dragon chair, Looking at the officials below, he felt deeply powerless. How many people are still his in this palace?How many of them belong to the prince?
The emperor felt panic for the first time. The first thing he thought of was Emperor Huiyuan. The emperor hurriedly withdrew from court, put on casual clothes, and ordered people to prepare a green cloth sedan chair. He was going out of the palace!

The corner of the Queen's mouth in Kunning Palace turned up slightly, and she whispered: "Your Majesty, you still haven't made any progress. Why don't you understand after so many years? It's better to rely on yourself than relying on others!"

The emperor was stopped by the queen before he left the Qianqing palace, the emperor looked at her with a frown, still feeling a little apprehensive, but the queen didn't seem to see it, and asked with a smile: "Is the emperor going to see the master?"

The emperor was unhappy.

Before the emperor could answer, the queen said: "The concubine also wanted to visit the master two days ago, but she just heard that the master has gone to travel and is not in Baiyun Temple, so she gave up the idea. Could it be that the master travels back now?"

The emperor's face darkened, the empress smiled, saluted and retreated.

The servant who went out to inquire soon came back. Huiyuan did go out for a wandering, and just two days ago, the words left behind may not come back until three or five years, maybe seven or eight years. Before leaving, she only left a sentence for the emperor. Words: Destiny, number also!

For the first time, the emperor refused to believe in fate, and had been looking for trouble for the prince for several months.

Li Xuanran has already returned from Xishan, there is no way, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, no matter how much he messes around, he also knows that the Chinese New Year must be a family reunion!Brother Hao's body has also improved a bit, his face is not as pale as usual, and he has seen some blood, and Wang's treatment of him is not as cold as before, so he is proud of the spring breeze, and he came back to see the scene of the emperor He just sneered, "What is he trying to do? Life is too comfortable? If the prince's affection for him is wiped out, what is left of him?"

Hou Yunping glanced at him and said nothing!

Li Xuanran twitched the corners of his mouth and said in surrender: "Okay, then I'll treat it as if I'm watching a show!"

They are not the only ones who see this as a farce, but also the Kou family and the Han family. Even Shang Shangshu, who has always been respectful to the emperor, couldn't help complaining to his younger brother, "The crown prince has a stable position and is filial to the emperor. After a while of silence, what does the emperor want to do?"

Mr. Shang was as serious as ever, but his words were not surprising, "The emperor is worried about being taken over by the prince, he is stupid, what can we do?"

Shang Shangshu twitched his mouth, turned his head away, and decided that he would never discuss this kind of matter with his younger brother again. If he didn't mind spreading the word, their entire Shang family would have to die!

The prince was very helpless, but he had no choice but to deal with his father gently. The queen watched from the harem, her eyes were full of sarcasm, but she didn't show up, but pulled Concubine Ou Gui and took many books from the library , I don’t know what I’m doing when I paint and paint!
The fifth prince was probably the one who had the most fun watching. He watched his father fight for power with the prince like a child in front of the prince. He laughed so hard that tears came out. He just laughed and cried again. He and his father The emperors are the same in essence, they are all defeated by his subordinates, the difference is that the father emperor is just a bigger joke!

The emperor's complexion became more and more ugly, he ate less and less food, but he became fatter and fatter. The lights in Ou Bin's palace were on all night and night, and no one except the queen noticed this.

The queen didn't tell anyone, she just raised the corners of her mouth slightly, still looking through books with Concubine Ou Gui, but sent someone to watch the emperor all the time.

So Doctor Liu knew the queen as soon as she was called into the palace. She sat up from the bed, with her hair covered, and she didn't look like a person in her 40s at all, and she looked like she was only in her 20s when she was young.

She ordered someone to go down and intercept Doctor Liu, while she dressed and waited for him.

Physician Liu went out of the palace gate and was intercepted when he was about to get home. For a moment, various ways of death flashed through his mind. He was specially for the emperor. If the emperor's case was leaked, His whole family will suffer, so he can only die!
It's just that the other party seemed to know what he was thinking, and before he could act in the future, the other party restrained him.

When he opened his eyes again, the eye sockets shrank.

The queen smiled indifferently and said: "Don't worry, I only care about the emperor's body, and I'm not interested in your wealth and life!" She said it boldly and bluntly, but believe it or not, only the two parties know.

Imperial Physician Liu's face was pale, and after thinking for a long time, he still cupped his hands and said, "The emperor is overworked, he is losing both Qi and blood, and his pulse is not very good!"

The queen nodded, she knew all this just by looking at the surface, this was not what she wanted to know.The queen looked at him with piercing eyes.

Physician Liu had no choice but to whisper two words.

The queen's pupils shrank, she nodded in satisfaction, and waved someone to take him down.

After the person left, the queen couldn't recover, she seemed to be looking forward to this day, but this day is coming soon, but it's not real!

After persisting for more than two months, the emperor stopped going to court, but the courtiers lost their interest in persuading them before. They just felt relieved that this farce was finally over. Although I don’t know how the emperor figured it out, but The emperor's brain structure is different from that of ordinary people, and they have long been accustomed to it.

The queen notified the prince, and the prince immediately called Kou Lao and asked him to treat the emperor's illness.

No matter what others think, compared to the queen, the emperor has always treated him very well, whether it is sincere or false, when he was young, apart from his grandfather's family, even his father treated him best, and it was only with him. He can feel the warmth of his family.

The queen watched the prince running around for the emperor on the hospital bed, and did not stop him. Although Mr. Kou's medical skills were better than Imperial Physician Liu, but Imperial Physician Liu said that the emperor's body had been hollowed out, so what could Mr. Kou do?

Mr. Kou really has no choice. He tried his best to extend his life for more than ten days. If there is the kind of tea that the prince took back then, maybe it can be delayed for another year or two. It’s just that thing, the prince He had already finished drinking, and he didn't think about keeping some, because he thought that Master Hui Yuan would give it to him when he got it, but now Master Hui Yuan is wandering around, and the prince doesn't know how the tea leaves Hui Yuan came from of.

The courtiers also knew that the emperor was ill, so the people who wanted to have a lively New Year also lowered the standard a little, so as not to attract the emperor's eyes. Of course, this is the business of those dignitaries. What should ordinary people do or how should they live?Whether the emperor is sick or not doesn't have much impact on them!
