One Child and Two Treasures: The Divine Doctor's Daughter

Chapter 343

The news that Li Zongyu hadn't returned to the main courtyard for more than ten days had already reached the old emperor's ears.

The old emperor recovered well, and he could already sit on the bed and read the memorials and listen to news from various places.

"You said, the Twelfth Princess really invited people from the Jianghu into the mansion to control her servants?"

"Isn't that right? It has spread among officials and family members in the capital. It really is No. 1."

Ji Li carefully served the old emperor beside him, took the tea bowl from the old emperor's hand, and added something after a pause.

"Some people say it's good, and some people say it's not. Everyone is waiting to know whether the twelve concubines are good at managing the family or making a fool of themselves."

"Oh?"

The old emperor raised his eyebrows and gave Ji Li a sidelong glance.

Ji Li shook his hand, but thanks to the reaction speed cultivated in the palace for many years, he just pretended that nothing happened, and handed the tea bowl to the little eunuch behind him.

"How to say good? How to say bad?"

With a half-smile, the old emperor asked indifferently by the dim light by the bedside.

With a flattering expression on his face, Ji Li half-kneeled in front of the bed, thought for a while and said.

"Okay, some people say that the Twelve Princess's wrists are iron and blood, and she directly invited a martial artist who is strong in martial arts and has a violent temperament to guard her house. Even if the servants below want to make small moves, it is the most important thing to save their lives."

"There are many bad things. Some people say that the twelve princesses are vulgar people who lived in the countryside. They only use this method to manage the inner house. The servants are not convinced. Some people say that the twelve princesses are flamboyant and gossip. It's been said all over the place, and some people even say that the twelve concubines may not be able to suppress this Jianghu person, and I'm afraid they will suffer together with the twelve princes."

"Ah."

The old emperor snorted coldly and left the memorial at hand.

Ji Li couldn't figure out why the old emperor groaned coldly, so he quickly knelt down, frowning and not daring to make a sound.

The old emperor waved his hand.

"Not to you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Ji Li hurriedly got up quickly and served the emperor with a smile and continued to drink medicine.

The old emperor used up the decoction, took a mouthful of rock sugar, closed his eyes and fell back to sleep.

"Your Majesty, have you gone to bed?"

Ji Li looked up at the old emperor, and asked very carefully.

Since the old emperor had this serious illness, he seemed to have become more suspicious, and the servants under them had a harder time.

"Where did the six kings go?"

The old emperor didn't say whether he wanted to sleep, but suddenly asked aloud.

Gilly answered with a bow.

"Returning to the emperor, His Royal Highness the Six Kings stayed in the palace for the whole night yesterday, approved a lot of memorials in the morning, and didn't rest until noon. Come to think of it, he is still asleep now."

"It's been hard for him these days."

The old emperor sighed.

After a pause, he said quietly.

"Lao Liu looks like me the most, but his character is a complete warrior from the Wu family. He has a straightforward personality. His personality is too straightforward, he has no measure, and his head is not smart enough. In addition, I have protected him too much these years. All right."

"Your Majesty, take your time."

Ji Li's eyelids jumped, and he moved closer to the old emperor, pulling the brocade quilt for him.

The old emperor smiled bleakly.

"He is nearly forty years old, he wants to take his time, and I may not be able to wait for him to take his time."

"."

Ji Li suppressed his beating heart, his face was expressionless, and he didn't dare to answer.

The old emperor seemed to have a strong desire to talk today, holding the thin quilt, paused, and said again.

"Lao Ba is actually not bad."

"The emperor's highnesses are very good."

Ji Li spoke slightly.

The old emperor smiled silently, unable to tell whether it was self-deprecating or conceited.

"Yeah, all good."

"Old Ba is good at calculating, and his superficial skills are enough. It's a pity that he has a common problem with Empress Hui. He is too attached to some small details. People who want to make big things blindly only hold on to those trivial things. What does something do?"

"."

Ji Li lowered his head, still not daring to answer.

He shouldn't make any comments on what the old emperor said at the moment.

The old emperor opened his eyes and looked towards the ceiling of the curtain.

The top of the curtain is embroidered with a gorgeous and noble golden dragon, wrapped in auspicious clouds, soaring through the clouds and riding the fog is very majestic.

For a long time, there was no movement.

Ji Li raised his head, wanting to see if the old emperor was asleep.

As a result, the old emperor was only seen staring blankly at the top of the curtain, his old-fashioned posture appeared for the first time.

This kind of state is not common among the most powerful people who have been killing decisively all the year round.

Just as Ji Li was about to lower his eyes and continue to wait honestly, the old emperor suddenly turned his head and stared straight at Ji Li with frightening eyes.

"auspicious."

"The slave is here."

"You said, did I treat Xiao Twelve too harshly?"

".The emperor does this, and there is a reason for the emperor."

Ji Li didn't dare to raise her head.

The old emperor shook his head and said with a sigh.

"You old bastard, you're used to being slick! It's as difficult as climbing the sky to hear who you're addressing from your mouth."

"A slave is only the emperor's slave."

Ji Li laughed and echoed.

The old emperor turned his head again, looked at the five-clawed golden dragon on the top of the curtain, and said slowly: "Little Twelve has a deep scheming mind, a calm personality, and decisive killing. Heart, is really a nice person."

After a pause, the old emperor said again.

"At first, I thought that the Twelfth Princess was an outlier, but I didn't expect that she would help him invisibly."

"Your Majesty, there is still no conclusion on the matter. Everyone is waiting to see the situation of the Twelve Princes' Palace. No one knows whether the Twelve Princesses are in the right place."

Lucky and tactful, he diverted the topic from the old emperor's evaluation of the princes to Jiang Jinyue.

The old emperor sneered.

"You stupid thing, do you really think that little twelve's daughter-in-law is capable enough to find a reliable Jiang Hu? If there is no little twelve behind this matter, she would dare to make such an outrageous move?"

"But... I heard that the Twelve Kings and the Princess recently."

Before the auspicious words were finished, the old emperor sneered even more.

"I've gotten a little closer to Xiao Twelve recently. Look at the doggy faces of those things in the court. Who doesn't want to stick to Xiao Twelve? Xiao Twelve has always been tough, making it difficult for people to start. These people's ideas are naturally It will hit the little twelve daughter-in-law on the head!"

"Your Majesty means that His Highness the Twelve Kings is indifferent to the Twelve Consorts this time, and everyone in the city knows about it, yes."

Geely dare not say the word acting.

The old emperor looked at the top of the curtain with a half-smile, but said nothing.

Xiao Twelve's thoughts are turning a thousand times, which is even worse than that of his father, who knows the meaning of this move?

The sound in the hall gradually disappeared, and the old emperor's breathing gradually became steady. After a long time, Ji Li heard the old emperor's almost raving words again.

".It's a pity. When I think of his mother, his mother, who didn't know what to do, couldn't be affectionate with him since he was a child. If one day...I'm afraid he may not be willing to hold on to this country."
