(Apology, Huang Pu, who appeared in the previous chapter, was Xu Wei, and Huang Pu was Li Jian's confidant, and he was already slapped. Xu Wei, former Minister of War, was demoted after Li Jian ascended the throne. After Li Xiao entered the capital, he came to power again and took charge of the Ministry of War and served as Minister of War. This person was Li Xiao's earliest followers and confidant)

When Li Xiao once again broke away his heavy eyes, he seemed to feel countless heads shaking in front of him, and tried hard to calm his mind so that his mind would be as clear as possible. When he opened his eyes again, he finally saw clearly. In front of the bed, the face closest to him with tears was the queen's Xinmei, and his eyes were red and swollen.

Xinmei rushed to Taiji Hall after receiving the sudden illness from Emperor Li Xiao in Taiji Hall. When she arrived, the imperial physicians were already sweating profusely. Soon, Xinmei also learned from Xu Wei that Lian Zhongwen’s memorial and the reason for the ringing of the bell.

"Your Majesty, are you awake?" Seeing Li Xiao open his eyes, Xinmei couldn't help but be happy, "Your Majesty, you are bound to the whole world, but you must have a full dragon body!" He reached out and held Li Xiao's hand.

Li Xiao's eyes slowly turned, and the chief minister Cao Yi, the Minister of War Xu Wei, and the chief officials of the six ministers of the central government of the court all gathered here. The eyes of him all looked worried and anxious. I don't know how many people were real or fake.

"Rou Niang, where is Rou Niang?" Li Xiao asked hoarsely. When he heard Li Xiao wake up, he asked Rou Niang, but Xinmei didn't feel abnormal. Behind Xinmei, the imperial concubine Xie Yunqiu looked unhesitant. Min Lian'er obviously cried for a while, her eyes were red and swollen like peaches. She lowered her head at this time, and didn't know what she felt in her heart.

"Your Majesty, during your coma, Concubine Xian came here quickly. But later, because the Luowang came to report that something happened in the capital, Concubine Xian left in a hurry. After the treatment was completed, she would come here." Xinmei whispered.

"What's wrong?" Li Xiao stared at Xinmei.

"It seems that because the bell rang, some spies in Shangjing were moved and wanted to create chaos in the city. Some of them had been taken down, and some of them were still fleeing. Concubine Xian was in Jingren's palace and commanded the arrest. Your Majesty, if you want to see Concubine Xian, I will call her right away!" Xinmei said, turning around and trying to command the palace maids on the side of the palace.

"I want to see her?" Li Xiao suddenly sneered, "I never want to see her in my life. Xinmei immediately asked the palace guards to surround Jingren Palace for me and lock this bitch to me!"

Everyone in the hall could feel his anger, but Li Xiao's order made them sweat even more.

"Your Majesty!" Xinmei looked at Li Xiao, her eyes widening, "Your Majesty, you just said you want to lock up Concubine Naxian?"

"Isn't she or who? Xinmei, haven't you heard me? I will send the palace guards to bring me this bitch."

"Your Majesty, no!" Cao Yi, the chief minister behind, took a step forward and knelt in front of the dragon bed, "Your Majesty, think twice!"

As soon as Cao Yi knelt down, all the important officials behind him, except Xu Wei, knelt down, "Your Majesty, think twice!"

Li Xiao was angry and his eyes were dark, "What do you want to do? Rebellion, or you are all the accomplices of that bitch, Cao Yi, even Zhongwen died and Uncle Wang died, don't you qingchu what this means?"

Cao Yi bowed heavily, "Your Majesty, I am very qingchu, but because of this, I cannot touch the Virtuous Concubine!"

Li Xiao raised his hand and his fingers trembled, "You bastard, do you want this bitch to ruin my country?"

Cao Yiyi was not afraid and looked up at Li Xiao: "Your Majesty, when you were in a coma, not only did someone come to report it, but now there is chaos in the capital. The spies of the ranks, the darkroom legacy and the remnants of Li Jian were moved after hearing the shock bell, causing chaos in the whole city. Now it is Xianfei who is commanding the arrest of Luowang. If Xianfei is arrested at this time, the Luowang group has no leader, and there will be a big problem in the capital. Shangjing is the center of the world. If Shangjing is in chaos, the world will be shaken!"

"You are talking nonsense. Maintaining public security in the capital is the mission of the five cities. When will it be the turn of the net?" Li Xiao said angrily.

Cao Yi turned to look at Xu Wei, and Xu Wei had no choice but to step forward and kneeled down, "Your Majesty, when Li Jian left the capital last year, he took away almost all the elite troops in the capital, including the Yulin Army. Since then, the Five City Military and Ma Si has become an empty shell. There is almost no troops to adjust. Apart from defending the city gates in Shangjing, he has no spare energy to take care of other things."

"In a year, you haven't filled the vacancy yet. Xu Wei, how did you become the Minister of War?" Li Xiao roared.

"Your Majesty, it's not that I don't work hard, but that the court has been using troops continuously over the past year, and the money is spent like flowing water. The Ministry of Revenue has no money and is unable to pay for the efforts of the minister to expand his army."

When Xu Wei mentioned the Ministry of Revenue, an old minister with white hair and beard kowtowed behind Cao Yi, kowtowed: "Your Majesty, it's not that I'm not doing my best. The Shu army left Shu and went from Shu to Shangjing, and then drove to Jingzhou. The expenses of the 100,000 troops were supported by the Ministry of Revenue. Although Your Majesty has ordered General Xie to raise funds for himself in Jingzhou, Yuzhou and other places, General Xie said that the military disasters in these places were unable to be self-sufficient at all, so he asked Your Majesty to still support the Shu army as needed. This was what Your Majesty personally allowed! In order to raise these military expenses, I have tried all the ways, and I really cannot take out the extra food and salary to support Lord Xu's military expansion plan!"

Cao Yi looked at Li Xiao on the hospital bed, "Your Majesty, so at this moment, you can't move the virtuous concubine! What's more, what's more, the reaction of the three southern states? Since the prince left, tens of thousands of strong troops in the southern town army must have been controlled by Xiong Kuohai. If one is not good, there will be civil strife in the south, and Park Demeng's 100,000 Northern Army can be eyeing Guizhou!"

Li Xiao kept gasping for breath, his teeth choked, his face turned red, and his muscles twitched, which was really scary.

An eunuch hurried into the hall, looked at the scene inside, and was so scared that he lowered his head, stood by the gate, not daring to speak. His body was trembling.

The unusual movement behind him alarmed Cao Yi, he turned around and asked in a deep voice: "What's wrong?"

The eunuch bowed and said, "Just just came from the palace and reported that thieves set fire to the south and west of the capital. The fire had spread across multiple streets, and some gangsters attacked various yamen in the capital with weapons."

"What?" Cao Yi stood up suddenly, "How is it now?"

"Return to the Master of the Shoujiao, the fire has been controlled, and the thieves attacking the yamen were also defeated by the Luowang tribe who arrived later, and are now pursuing them. People come to say, Concubine Xian, please rest assured that before dawn, going to the capital will inevitably return to peace. Please take care of the dragon body, please be careful, sir!" The eunuch finally came to his senses and spoke much fluently.

Cao Yi turned around and looked at Li Xiao, "Your Majesty, did you hear it? At this time, you must not move the Virtuous Concubine!"

Li Xiao closed his eyes, raised his fist and hit the edge of the bed hard, with blue veins on his head exposed, angry but helpless.

"Sir, the Prime Minister, has suddenly changed a lot now. Your Majesty is in good health. Please ask the Prime Minister to stay in charge, restore peace as soon as possible, and stabilize the hearts of the people in the capital!" Xinmei turned her head and looked at Cao Yi.

"I will follow the instructions of the Empress!" Cao Yi said respectfully.

Xinmei nodded, "Your eyes need a good rest, you can go down first, Master Master, sir, please don't have to leave the palace. Next to the Tai Chi Hall, you have prepared a place for rest and office for you. Please help me."

"I dare not, this is my position as a minister!" Headed by Cao Yi, everyone bowed to Li Xiao, turned around and walked out of the room.

"Your Majesty!" Looking at Li Xiao who was still angry, Xinmei said softly: "No matter what, Concubine Xian is still Hao'er's biological mother. No matter what she does, she will never want to subvert our Dayue, so Your Majesty still has to take care of her illness first. Even if you have to pursue it, you have to wait for your health to be healthy and make a calm layout!"

Li Xiao sighed: "If I had known this, I wouldn't have left her!"

"Your Majesty's words are wrong. If it weren't for her, it would be difficult for Your Majesty to escape Gou Jing's tracking. Every drink and peck, there will be a decisive decision. Maybe this is the hardship God gave to Your Majesty. After experiencing storms, he finally saw the rainbow. Thinking about the difficulties when our ancestors founded the country, what is it now? So what if Rou Niang is wrong? Could she still be able to join Yun Zhao? So your Majesty, don't worry. Maybe Rou Niang wants to defeat Yun Zhao now, and now she is even stronger than you."

"Xinmei, Qin Rouniang's scheming is so terrible. Over the years, her power has developed too fast. I am afraid that the longer the time, the harder it will be to move her!" Li Xiao sighed.

"If you don't have a complete assurance, you might as well stay still." Xinmei said, and suddenly coughed and rinsed, covering her mouth with a handkerchief. After coughing for a while, her face turned red and stopped. When she took off the handkerchief, it turned out to be bright red. She stuffed the handkerchief into her sleeves quietly, and gently stroked Li Xiao's chest with a normal expression.

"Xinmei, you have been taking the prescriptions prescribed by Uncle Wang for more than a year to nourish your body, but why are your health getting worse and worse? I heard from the eunuch that you have suddenly become coughing and rinsing in the past month, and it is not going to be cured?" Li Xiao asked.

"Your Majesty, I was hiding in the snow for too long, and it hurt the root cause. I will never see you well in a while. I will take care of you slowly, and it will always be well!" Xinmei said with a smile.

"Help me up." Li Xiao looked back at the eunuch beside the bed.

"Your Majesty, you should lie down, it's more comfortable!" Xinmei quickly stopped.

Li Xiao shook his head, "Help me up, I remember that the messenger also brought Uncle Wang's relics, I want to take a look."

An eunuch walked up and reached out to caress Li Xiao carefully. Li Xiao supported the bed with the other hand and wanted to sit up. However, Zhiyi tried hard, but his legs were unconscious and could not move. The panic in Xinmei's eyes beside the bed was beyond words.

"My legs, what's wrong with my legs?" Li Xiao's face turned pale. He supported the bed with his hands, trying to bend his legs, but no matter how hard he used, the legs seemed to be no longer his and were out of control.

"What's wrong with my legs?" Li Xiao yelled loudly, "Xinmei, what's wrong with my legs?"
