Although he was weak, his eyes were bright and restrained. After a while, he smiled and said, "This is not the case. I have to hang my breath."

Nan Yan stared at his sickly face.

"Why do you have to breathe this tone with such hard work?"

"Why?"

Xu Shizong seemed a little funny, looked up at Nan Yan and said, "Just like the Empress said just now, I have to 'make trouble' with this tone. However, in the Empress's eyes, I am making trouble, but I know that I am upholding the orthodox."

Nanyan frowned.

If she had been wondering why she had to go against Zhu Feng and help Zhu Chengjin make trouble since she met Xu Shizong in the main hall, she had been wondering why she had to go against Zhu Feng since she had solemnly revealed that her identity was a "Confucian scholar" and now she said the four words "upholding orthodoxy". No matter how stupid Nanyan was, she understood it even though she was solemnly in front of Zhu Chengjin.

He was not trying to oppose Zhu Feng, he was just trying to help Zhu Chengjin take back the throne.

Because in his eyes, Zhu Chengjin is "orthodox"!

If he was for other narrow purposes, such as high-ranking officials and generous salaries, or family prosperity, Nan Yan had so many sharp words to argue with him, but when he heard that his purpose was this, she couldn't say anything for a moment.

Speaking of which, the seizure of the throne has always been a stain on Zhu Feng's life.

Even if he was supporting him, Nan Yan was not biased in this matter. Since he wanted to steal the throne and gain a throne above ten thousand people, he would have to bear everything he should bear after doing this.

For example, the criticism of Confucian scholars.

For example, the historian's records.

Even millions of years later, people's discussions about him.

Thinking of this, Nan Yan felt even more upset. She looked up at Xu Shizong again. The person who was guessed as a "god" seemed to be an ordinary person at this moment, and he was even weaker than an ordinary person. When he was lying on the bed, his whole body was sunken, like a hollowed-out sack.

But his eyes were extremely firm.

With such a look, such ambition and such a cunning person, it is obviously impossible for her to argue in just a few words. Nan Yan also believed that she was talking and debating with Confucian scholars, which was a show of her skills.

So she thought for a while, then turned around and walked to the other side of the room and dragged a chair to sit down by the bed.

Xu Shizong raised his eyebrows slightly and also realized that Nan Yan was planning to bear it.

He said, "The Imperial Concubine has something to say to you?"

Nan Yan looked at him and said, "So, the musk beads in Guanyin that you sent to the child were put in by Master Xu, right?"

“…!”

Xu Shizong's originally indestructible eyes squirted a little when he heard this sentence.

Then, he covered his mouth and coughed hard.

Nan Yan had no intention of pity for the weak, but instead narrowed his eyes, his eyes full of cold light: "It's you."

“…”

"At that time, I said that Guanyin, who gave birth to the child, broke her hand and wanted to repair it again, just wanted to see each of you're reacting. Later, Ran Xiaoyu met Xu Shifeng in that place."

“…”

"However, I thought about it. Whether he followed the emperor to guard Peiping, or later held a high position, and was always the emperor's loyal minister, he had no reason to do such things to Empress Renxiao. What's more, the King of Wei was made the crown prince, and General Xu could be regarded as the crown prince's first protector. If the crown prince was his nephew, this relationship should be more beneficial to him."

“…”

"So, even if he really wants to make trouble, he will not be able to start with the birth of Empress Renxiao."

Speaking of this, Nan Yan's eyes seemed to have ice quenched.

She leaned over and stared into Xu Shizong's eyes coldly, as if she wanted to see through the evil in this person's heart.

"So, it's you."

“…”

"Because you have been lingering in sick for many years, you can't help Zhu Chengjin when the emperor launched the Jingnan Campaign. I feel deeply regretful. Therefore, even if Empress Renxiao was enthroned and General Xu was promoted, you would not come to the capital and have any connection with the emperor."

“…”

"And in order to cover up your crime, you actually planned to use your brother in this way."

“…”

"You still treat your sister like this."

“…”

"Is the one that can still beat on your chest human heart?"

Xu Shizong seemed to be unable to bear it, and then covered his mouth and coughed hard. Nan Yan sat up straight and glanced at him coldly, as if he was looking at something dirty on the soles of his feet.

After a long time, Xu Shizong kept coughing and his cheeks turned red, and even his neck turned red. He finally stopped coughing. He reached out and trembled with the bowl of medicine on the table and sent it into his mouth. However, because his hands were shaking too hard, he drank the black medicine while sprinkling it out.

Although he was sick and weak, he was also a quiet and noble young man, but at this time, he was as embarrassed as a dejected family dog.

Nan Yan just watched him coldly finish the half bowl of medicine.

Finally calmed down a little, Xu Shizong took out the handkerchief from his sleeve and wiped his lips, his eyes turned red, and he said in a deep voice: "I, I am really sorry to them."

“…”

"I'm hanging in this breath, that is, hanging in the air. When I can't hang it any day, I will naturally apologize to Miaoyin. But—"

Speaking of this, he looked up at Nan Yan and said coldly: "The Imperial Concubine is so righteous and stern, why not use the same attitude to persuade the current emperor?"

“…”

"I'm sorry for my brother, what about him?"

Nanyan's expression condensed.

Xu Shizong sneered and said, "The prince died young. If Emperor Gao really wanted to pass the throne to other sons, I had nothing to say. However, Emperor Gao clearly passed the throne to the crown prince. His Highness Wen is the orthodox destiny. Your man next to you launched the Jingnan battle to force his nephew to take over the country that should not belong to him. How could this approach be better than me?"

“…”

"If I go to the underworld and have no face to see Miaoyin, then I would like to ask the concubine, will he have that face again? Will he go to see the ancestors of the Zhu family?"

“…”

"I'm afraid he doesn't even have the shame to see Emperor Gao!"

Nanyan's throat twitched.

She had already realized that she could not argue with someone like Xu Shizong, so she wanted to use Empress Renxiao's experience to first hit the person's heart, and when he was weak, she would stab him.

But unexpectedly, Xu Shizong's heart was stronger than she thought.

Also more determined.
