Chapter 36

Zhao He grabbed his collar tightly and shouted: "Uncle..."

"Don't be afraid." Chen Zui hugged her tightly, and there was another "boom" outside. Lin Yunying opposite him said, "Princess, don't be afraid, it's still far from us, but the sound has come, and the shells cannot fall here."

Chen Zui looked at her calm.

This couple does have the style of an emperor and a wife. Although they are like supporting a willow, they are extremely determined when encountering major events. This is the true royal man, the daughter of a noble family, and their noble demeanor is cultivated in their bones.

Because of heavy snow, they arrived at the west palace in Beijing much later than expected. They were exhausted all the way, and Chen Zui settled the little princess, but the little princess didn't dare to sleep: "I'm afraid."

It is normal for children to be afraid of when they arrive in a strange place.

Chen Zui said, "Don't be afraid, let's sleep together, uncle is here too. You sleep well, uncle tells you a story."

He told all the fairy tales he knew. When he was about the fourth chapter, Zhao He finally fell asleep. It was already dark outside. The palace was located in the valley. There was a bleak wind everywhere. When he came out, he saw the rolling mountains, dark and dark. The street lights in the courtyard were all low palace lanterns, which shone on the road, making people feel cold and wet.

Qiuhua whispered: "Your Highness, please rest early, I took the car for the whole day today."

"I can't sleep, go see your Majesty."

Qiu Hua led him to the yard where Zhao Jin lived. Xiao Wenyuan and others were standing in the yard and whispering. Seeing that he was coming, they bowed to him.

"I'll see your Majesty."

"Your Majesty is too tired and has already fallen asleep."

"It doesn't matter if his body is right?"

Xiao Wenyuan shook his head: "The doctor said it's not very good."

"At this time, there must be no accidents. You must ask the doctor to do his best to treat him."

"Xuan Yu will come tomorrow." Xiao Wenyuan said.

Chen Zui nodded and went in to take a look at Zhao Jin. Zhao Jin looked pale and was already asleep, but the breathing was very heavy, as if someone was pinching his neck.

Just listening to his breathing, Chen Zui felt difficult and painful.

Not only Zhao Jin, but also Empress Dowager Yao was not in good health, but also Lin Yunying, who may have been too tired, had a fetal aura. Now, after listening to the doctor's instructions, he is in bed resting.

Chen Zui only hopes that Yu Rong can come over quickly. He can't bear such a heavy burden alone. He doesn't have the ability to become the leader yet. If so many people have to rely on him to make decisions in the future, he may not be able to withstand this pressure. This is not a house-playing house, but a bunch of people's life and death.

"Your Highness is planning to rest?" Xiao Wenyuan asked in a low voice.

Chen Zui asked, "Is there anything wrong?"

Xiao Wenyuan nodded: "If your highness is not in a hurry to rest, you can go outside to comfort the noble relatives who are accompanying you. Their husbands, sons, or fathers are now mostly on the front line."

The men in this country have a sense of honor. The men of the nobles usually live in luxury, but they have not eroded their blood. During the national crisis, almost all of them went to the front line.

Chen Zui nodded: "Then you lead the way."

Xiao Wenyuan led him out of the palace. There were several buildings outside the palace, and most of the noble relatives lived here. Because there were too many people and there were not enough places, many people set up tents in the open space, and people from the inner palace were distributing supplies. Chen Zui walked around and asked, "Where are the civilians before?"

"They either went to join relatives and friends, or continued to walk southwest. Ordinary people could not enter the palace."

Chen Zui couldn't say what he felt. Everyone tried their best to climb up, wanting to make more money and wanting to improve their own class, but in fact they just want to have more security.

This is even more prominent in such a chaotic world. He, as the queen, can do nothing.

After returning from condolences, it was already late at night. Chen Zui came back with a slightly heavy body. Without washing up, he lay down.

On the second day, he did not wait for Yu Rong to receive news that Yu Rong was ill.

Yu Rong was in poor health. During this period, his mind was very nervous and he was busy and unable to rest. His illness was like a mountain of illness, and he was almost out of reach.

The news reached the palace, which made Yu Zhao Jin even worse and worse.

Chen Zui was so tormented that he couldn't sleep. He was guarding the emperor day and night, but the news he received made him even more anxious. Yu Huaiyong seemed to be at a disadvantage, and Zhao Zhun's army was extremely fierce and was about to break through the last line of defense.

"Your Majesty..." Xiao Wenyuan called out and immediately said, "Your Majesty is awake."

Chen Zui immediately sat down by the bed, hugged the little princess and said, "Your Majesty."

Zhao Jin looked at them with a muddy look and said weakly: "Summon... to summon the Prince of Ziwei Palace to the palace, hurry..."

"I'll go now!" Xiao Wenyuan hurried out after saying that.

The little princess' eyes were filled with tears, and she shouted, "Father..."

"Be good." Zhao Jin said to Qiuhua: "Let's take the princess down first, I have something to say to Chen Zui."

Qiu Hua bowed and then hugged the little princess. However, the little princess cried and said, "I want my father!"

"Princess is obedient. Your Majesty is going to rest. Let's come back later, okay?" Qiu Hua comforted her warmly. Seeing Zhao Jin's brow twitching, it seemed to be in great pain, so she hurriedly carried the little princess out.

The door closed and blocked the princess' crying. Chen Zui said, "What are your instructions?"

"I... I'm afraid it won't work. Wait... the fourth brother comes here, I will pass the throne to him, you..." Zhao Jin gasped for a while and said, "But he may not be able to sit firmly in this position. If... what if, the princess..."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, as long as I am here, I will protect the princess's safety." He was afraid that just promises would not make the emperor feel at ease, so he said again: "The princess is young, ignorant, and a girl, and she cannot threaten anyone. Even if Zhao Zhun usurps the throne in the future, for his reputation, he will not kill him all, and will give the little princess a way out."

"I... am an incompetent emperor, with a country turmoil, and I don't know how many casualties or injuries..." He seemed to think it was meaningless to say these to Chen Zui, so he closed his eyes, but his chest was still undulating, and said, "After I die, you can do your best to do whatever you want in the future. They probably won't make things difficult for you. It's better to go back to the Jade Seam and not stay in the capital."

Xiao Wenyuan opened the door and walked in. Seeing that the two of them were talking, he was stunned for a moment, and then whispered: "I have contacted the Fourth Prince. He said he would come immediately. It would be dark before he could arrive."

Zhao Jin nodded and said, "Go, I want to rest for a while."

Chen Zui stood up, and his emperor husband was still going to die.

Maybe he was mentally prepared, but he was not surprised, but he was just anxious.

At this time, Zhao Jin wanted to summon Zhao Run to pass the throne to him, probably to give Zhao Run a title sooner, otherwise once he dies, the throne will be empty, and Zhao Zhun has more reason to compete for the throne.

But doing this is destined to force the brothers Zhao Run and Zhao Zhun to get killed? What if Zhao Run refused to agree?

As soon as he walked into the courtyard, he saw four people slowly coming with a sedan chair. In the hazy moonlight, he heard a few women's coughs, and then he saw clearly the person who was catching up with the sedan chair.

It is the Queen Mother Yao Yuanying.

"Your Majesty is awake?" Yao Yuanying lay in the sedan chair and asked him quietly. Although he was sick, his expression was firm and his eyes were majestic.

Chen Zui nodded: "Yes. Your Majesty has already lie down."

"Even if it's not his biological mother, we should meet before we die."

Yao Yuanying said coldly: "Go and spread it."

It turns out that royal women are not easy to deal with.

Chen Zui went in and told her that Zhao Jin had difficulty getting up. Chen Zui quickly helped him up and put the pillow behind him. Zhao Jin gasped for a few times and said, "Let her come in."

Yao Yuanying had already got out of the sedan chair and came in with a cane. Chen Zui closed the door and stood in the corridor outside, and saw Lin Yunying running in in panic.

The two looked at each other, and Chen Zui shook his head at her.

Lin Yunying grabbed the handkerchief in her hand and stood shoulder to shoulder in the corridor under the corridor.

"The Empress Dowager is old," said Zhao Jin.

Yao Yuanying sat down beside the bed and reached out to help Zhao Jin tuck the quilt: "I haven't seen each other for so many years, so I've naturally got old. The wind of erotic artichoke is too cold, and it blows into my heart, and it's cold from the inside to the outside."

"The Empress hates me to the core. She refuses to see me after returning to Beijing. Why is she here now?"

"I heard that you were eager to summon the fourth brother to the palace and want to pass the throne to him?" Yao Yuanying sneered: "Zhao Jin, what are you doing? You know that the second brother is determined to win the throne."

"I want to see if that beast doesn't even let go of my own relatives."

Zhao Jin started to cough as he said that, his face turned red with coughing. Xiao Wenyuan pushed the door and came in. Zhao Jin immediately scolded: "Go out!"

Xiao Wenyuan was so scared that he stepped out again and closed the door.

Yao Yuanying sneered: "Are you beasts? The beast's son is naturally also a beast."

Zhao Jin was still coughing, his face turned red, as if he was a kind of suffering when he was panting. Yao Yuanying looked at him, his eyes were slightly red, and he was full of resentment: "This throne should be the second child. Give it to him, just as compensation for your debts to him over the years."

"He has been a perverse and vicious since he was a child. Such a person... Such a person is not suitable to be a overlord, let alone the king of a country. Zhao Run is also your son. Once he becomes the emperor, he will definitely treat you well, Zhao Zhun, and everyone."

"It's useless to tell me this. It's not that my mother-like words will all listen. You men are born to be creatures dominated by power. The sons of the imperial family are naturally even more so. Didn't you abandon me for the sake of your future? Just like today, you finally die at the hands of your own son."

Zhao Jin coughed again after hearing this. Yao Yuanying stood up and said, "You seduced me back then, and lived with me when the late emperor was expeditioning the north, which led to the tragedy of my life. Even though the late emperor did not find out the evidence, it caused the second son to be stained when he was born. Is it not that he had become a bad fate that you and me have made? I asked him to go away to accompany him, just to repay my sins to him, and what about yours? You inherited the throne well and continued to have children with other women on the dragon bed. You enjoyed the glory and wealth for the rest of your life. You should also repay a little, and give you this son who has never recognized each other."
