Rebirth of the Black-bellied Princess Mo

The Hall of Pure Heart was completely blown up, but the decorations in it are still the same as before.

High dome and great household, one school of grace and bearing.

Except for some unique porcelain calligraphy and paintings, the tone of the pattern is the same as usual.

From this, it can also be seen that Xiao Zimu really paid a lot of attention.

Xiao Mubai screened everyone back, and drank tea in the outer hall. Xia Chu walked to the inner compartment alone, and his eyes fell on the dragon couch filled with gold lacquer.

The emperor lay on the couch with a ruddy color and a well-proportioned breath.

Anyone who looked at him would only think that he had fallen into a deep sleep, and would never think that he had been in a coma for two or three months and would not wake up.

After Xia Chu checked his pulse, he looked at his peaceful face and sighed: “Your Majesty, don’t you want to wake up?”

Xia Chu always paid attention to his face, and he was as calm as he was, and his breathing was never disturbed in the slightest.

He knelt down on the edge of the couch and continued: “Before I came to the Qingxin Palace, I went to the imperial pantry and looked through your recent meals. Those chickens, ducks, and fish were brought here. Could it be that Eunuch Li chewed them and fed them to you? food?”

Incense rose from the furnace, and the thin bamboo silk curtain was lowered to block most of the sunlight outside.

As soon as Xia Chu’s words were finished, the hall returned to silence.

The splendid emperor, who was inlaid with beads and inlaid on the jade dragon couch, still had his eyes tightly closed.

“It wasn’t until I had dinner with Mu Bai at noon today that I heard him mention that Old General Zhao still had an edict that established him as the crown prince, and I didn’t understand why you didn’t wake up, Your Majesty.”

Xia Chu always suspected that the emperor was pretending to be in a coma, but he never understood why he did this.

It was not until this afternoon in the spring breeze that he told Xiao Mubai that Emperor Xiao Mubai might have already woken up, and Xiao Mubai told Xia Chu what General Zhao said to him before he left.

Xia Chu knelt up and bowed to the dragon couch: “Your Majesty, even if you sleep until the year of the monkey and the month of the horse, I will not let my grandfather announce it.”

“presumptuous!”

A familiar and majestic voice finally came from overhead. When Xia Chu looked up again, he saw the emperor on the couch open his eyes.

Those eyes were bright and piercing, where there was a hazy haze that was half a coma and woke up for many days.

Xia Chu straightened up, supported him against the couch, and said with a smile, “How dare I have the courage of you, the imperial city is in such a precarious state, and you can also lie down.”

The emperor glanced at him out of the corner of his eyes and sneered: “When did you find out?”

Xia Chu saw that he didn’t let himself get up, so he got up and sat on the low steps on the side of the cave: “Before leaving the capital, it was probably Yuan Guangyi’s bizarre disappearance at the earliest. I think it was also given by the emperor…”

Xia Chu made a gesture of wiping his neck, and the emperor lowered his eyes silently, in response to what he said.

Xia Chu thought to himself, the emperor is really arrogant, and it was because Yuan Guangyi offended the emperor when he was drunk. He was afraid that he died, and he still didn’t understand.

At that time, the imperial city was surrounded by rebels, and Xia Chu was puzzled after Yuan Guangyi disappeared. Even if he was so good at Qinggong, it would be difficult to fly out.

Yuan Guangyi, such a big living person, how could he have disappeared in the palace?

Until the imperial city was about to be destroyed, even the hidden guards were dispatched, but the hidden guards who belonged to the emperor did not even see a shadow.

Xia Chu only became suspicious. In this imperial city, the living can’t get out, and it is too easy to hide the dead.

There are corpses everywhere in front of the Danfeng Palace, and if they are casually thrown at the nine gates, they will be covered up without burying them.

Therefore, when Xia Chu left the capital, he repeatedly told Xiao Zimu that no matter how busy he was every day, he had to make time to go to Kunning Palace to see the comatose emperor and say something he liked.

It is nothing more than suspecting that the emperor is pretending to be sober and pretending to be in a coma, and let Xiao Zimu take the opportunity to fall by his side and say more good things to win his heart.

“Father, what if the imperial city is broken?” Xiao Mubai walked in from outside and looked at the emperor for a moment.

At first, Xia Chu told him that when the emperor might wake up early, he couldn’t believe it.

How critical the imperial city was at that time, he dared not think that the emperor was deliberately not awake.

“That’s why you’re incompetent.” The emperor said calmly.

He naturally didn’t panic, even if the rebels attacked the imperial city, as long as he opened his eyes and walked out of Kunning Palace, with a single order, the people who had been arranged by the Eight Cities Guard Corps early in the morning would immediately cut off their heads.

Although he pretended to be unconscious during the day, at night, the hidden guard reported the situation in the city to him one by one.

Everything is within the emperor’s control. As long as the imperial court can be completely wiped out, he doesn’t mind bleeding a little bit more, and he will do his best to get rid of evil.

Xiao Mubai laughed angrily at his words: “Father is right, although this battle was hard, it was finally won. You must also know that Concubine Li was executed, and Xiao Yanjun is already here. Why do you continue to pretend to be in a coma on the way back to the capital after being escorted, is it really like what Ah Chu said, waiting for General Zhao to call you in order to make an agreement with King Liang?”

“Yes.” The emperor’s simple and frank reply made Xia Chu and Xiao Mubai breathless.

“Your Majesty, I didn’t tell you that Mu Bai just wants to live with me for a few years…”

Xia Chu saw Xiao Mubai’s face frozen like frost, for fear that his words were not serious, he rushed to speak in front of him and sold it badly.

Euphemistically reminding the emperor, why bother, even if you have any **** agreement with King Liang, your son will not have a good life for a few years.

“For the sake of your best efforts to cure him, I will not cure your crime of deceit.” The emperor raised his eyes to look at Xia Chu, his words were very generous, but his tone was full of sarcasm.

…

Xia Chu and Xiao Mubai looked at each other, this…

How did the emperor know that the poison in Xiao Mubai’s body was cured by him?

“Your Majesty, you…”

Xia Chu was obviously guilty, and he seemed a little stumped when speaking, and he wanted to die without admitting it.

But seeing the emperor’s burning eyes, he didn’t seem to be bluffing him. He couldn’t help thinking of the old general Zhao’s advice, this grandfather is right, the emperor is too shrewd.

Apart from him and Xiao Mubai, no one knows about this.

“How do you know? I know his poison better than anyone else, and I have tried my best to detoxify him over the years. Every month at the end of the month, his body is like an ice cellar, and I am even colder than him.” The emperor paused and looked at it. To Xiao Mubai.

There was a hint of anger in his tone: “At the end of January, he once came to Kunning Palace to see me once. At that time, he held my hand in both hands, and asked me pitifully what cards I had left. The warmth of those hands , it’s a little warmer than my warm hands under the quilt.”

Xiao Mubai: “…”

His awe-inspiring aura just now weakened in an instant.

Xia Chu tugged at the corner of his clothes, frowned and said, “Aren’t you feeling angry? Haven’t you ever been to Kunning Palace to see the emperor? Even looking for me, you’re waiting in the side hall.”

Xiao Mubai pursed his lips, lowered his eyes, and said with a bit of bluntness in his tone: “Just… secretly went there just once.”
