I looked at him, a little confused.
However, after seeing me, he just said lightly: "He is an interesting person. The queen introduced him. Gu also wanted him to take charge of the Imperial Hospital, but he refused. He just went to the palace from time to time and had a drink and chat with Gu Huan."
is that so?
I looked at the uncertain look on his face, and I couldn't tell it clearly for a moment, and I just felt that something was hidden in his words.
The pharmacy...
After thinking about it for a while, I immediately understood.
Pei Yuanxiu is the son of Yao Lao.
In other words, Empress Yin and Yao always had an affair with him on his back and gave birth to Pei Yuanxiu. I don’t doubt that Pei Ji might have known this before he fell into a coma. Otherwise, since Pei Yuanxiu was obviously the crown prince and could inherit the status of the throne, why did he suddenly poison the emperor and search for imperial edicts and jade seals everywhere? It was naturally because the emperor knew his life experience and it was impossible for him to pass the throne to him.
And Pei Ji couldn't say these words.
As an emperor, this was undoubtedly a great humiliation. One of the ones who brought this great humiliation was his virtuous concubine, the later queen, and the other was the brother of his beloved queen. Even he appointed the child who had no royal blood as the crown prince and gave him the power to inherit the throne. This was not only a shame for him alone, but a shame for the entire royal family.
So, he can't mention it, and he can't mention a word.
Thinking of this, I became quiet.
The two of them were silent for a long time, and until they heard him calming their heartbeat and breathing, I asked carefully: "They are gone, what?"
He looked up at me.
"Didn't you look for it?"
"Look, of course."
“Not found?”
“Not found.”
I heard his tone was wrong and was about to say something, but I saw him slowly said, "I didn't find it, so I didn't look for it anymore."
“…”
Indeed, I didn't look for it anymore.
Even in that imperial edict, he only asked the ministers in the court to "retrieve" the eldest son Pei Yuanchen, without mentioning the child he replaced and was taken away by others.
I asked, "Why?"
He asked me back: "Don't you understand?"
"..." This time, it seemed like I was asking, but it was just a moment. Looking at his somewhat chaotic eyes, I immediately came to my senses.
He was a man who once wanted to become a monk and hide from the world. As a prince of the Tian family, he could inherit the throne and had such thoughts. It shows how disappointed he was with the royal family and the filth in the imperial city. But he had no choice and could not avoid it. But a child who had just been born was OK.
Moreover, this child was taken away by Yao Lao. The Xue family is in Jiangnan and has power. If Yao Lao took him away, he must have believed that he was his nephew. Since he took him away, he would definitely not be wronged. That's why Pei Ji agreed to this fact.
In fact, Huang Tianba has indeed become a pride of heaven in another sense. He was once the uncrowned king in Jiangnan, and someone like Pei Yuanhao who could not gain any advantage when facing him.
Thinking of this, I couldn't even say anything.
On the contrary, Pei Ji looked up at me, his eyes flashing: "Do you know his whereabouts?"
I looked at him unexpectedly and nodded.
Pei Ji immediately asked, "Where is he?"
“…”
I looked at him mum for a while before hesitating: "He is in Shengjing."
"Shengjing?"
This was obviously beyond his expectations, but after thinking for a while, he chuckled softly again: "He's back."
“…”
"Shengjing, grassland, that's his place."
“…”
"His mother has never been able to go back in her life, but he has gone back."
Recalling the words the Queen Mother said to me, and recalling the past when she was young, riding her horse and chasing and playing with the Iron Cavalry King on the grassland carefree, my throat suddenly choked.
It turned out that she wasn't the only one who thought about it.
Pei Ji asked me again: "Have he returned and inherited the Iron-Face King?"
"..." I looked at him with a smile on his face and joy in his eyes. It was a familiar and joyful look, the same as when I arrived in Jinling and knew that I was about to meet Miaoyan, but I couldn't give him too good news.
I was silent and said softly: "No."
He was stunned: "No?"
I took a deep breath and said, "The Supreme Emperor, your son is one of the few great heroes in the world. He is amazing and has a weak moral character. His character and character are in the thousands of people I know, and no one can talk to him. Anyone who has seen him will be attracted to him..."
Pei Ji stared at me: "What about?"
"People who are attracted to him will become his friends, his confidants, his lover... and some will use any means to get him at all costs."
He stared at me with wide eyes: "What did you say?!"
"Your son, his name is Huang Tianba, was once the leader of the 72 water and land scoops in Jiangnan, but now he has been under house arrest by Luo Shi, the prince of the Iron Sphur of Shengjing, for a full ten years."
Pei Ji looked at me in disbelief.
Obviously, the words I said were beyond what he could understand. He sat there blankly for a long time, recalling what I said, after a long time, he could not convince himself that it was a dream. Then he looked at me and asked in an incredible tone: "Lose? The man of Shengjing?"
"He is the son of the Iron Arrow King. The eight kings of the past are already old, and he is the one who is in power in Shengjing now."
"He...he...he has placed his orphan son under house arrest!?"
Pei Ji's eyes turned red. The more he spoke, his face became paler. Before I could speak, he coughed hard, and the more he coughed, he became more and more severe. In the end, he didn't even have the strength to support him. He lay down to the bed. When I realized that I was going to go forward to help him, I saw a few more scarlet reds on the ground!
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! I was shocked: "The Supreme Emperor!"
At this moment, the door behind him was pushed open suddenly, and Yan Wuyou walked in from outside. When he saw this scene, he hurried to the edge of the bed and helped him up. Only then did I see that Pei Ji's mouth was covered with blood. He reached out to cover his mouth, but he could also see the dazzling redness from the gap between his fingers.
Yan Wuyu glanced at it and frowned, but he didn't say anything, but he didn't know where to take out a moment of red pill and stuff it into Pei Ji's mouth, barely letting him feel relieved, and then he helped him lie down.
I was frightened and stood beside me and guarded. Looking at Pei Ji's face was as pale as paper and could not even speak. Yan Wuyu turned around and made a gesture to me. Then I slowly left the room. When I stood at the door, I was still breathing a little restless.
After a while, Yan Wuyu walked out.
He closed the door and turned to look at me: "What did you say to him just now?"
"I……"
He shook his head and said as if he was amused and laughed: "I thought Miss Yan was a person who knew the importance of the matter, so why didn't you even know this?"
“…”
"He was in a coma for more than ten years before he woke up. Do you have to tell him all the bad news in these two days?"
“…”
"If he gets angry again, where do you find someone like this to help you suppress the government and the country?"
“…”
I also know that I was so impatient about what I just told him. Not to mention that he had been in a coma for more than ten years before he woke up. Just saying that at his age, he had to suddenly face his son's coma, his son was under house arrest in Shengjing, and even Pei Yuanfeng's escape, which was not something a father could bear.
I said softly, "I'm too impatient."
Perhaps I didn't realize that I would "admit my mistake" so obediently. Yan Wuyu glanced at me again, then sighed lightly, and said, "Do I understand that Miss Yan must have a lot of things in her heart, and it's necessary to say it, but the future is long, so I'd better solve the current situation first and then talk about it."
I looked up at him, and after a moment of silence, I came to my senses in a daze - what's happening now.
Yes, Pei Ji woke up and indeed suppressed the people from the previous dynasty, but because of suppressing them, we relaxed a little and forgot about the serious matters.
What he should solve is how to help the prince to deal with those government affairs.
This is the top priority.
I said softly: "I understand, I will contact Jingren Palace."
Yan Wuyu nodded then, turned around and pushed the door and walked in.
This means "exiting guests". I stood outside the door, remained silent for a while before turning around and walking out.
Outside, it was still dark.
Although there was a little whiteness in the distant horizon, the whole sky was still dark blue, and you could even see some faint twinkling starlight. When you walked out of this palace, the wind was still as cold as the night dew. After a while, the corners of my skirt were wet by the dew on the ground.
There are also the sound of crickets in the corner.
I walked out alone, and the lanterns under the eaves barely illuminated my path. Following the bright red light, I slowly walked towards Jingren Palace.
As I walked, I suddenly felt a strange feeling.
It's so quiet around.
Although it was probably not yet Mao at this time, and it was indeed a time when many people were still resting, even so, I still felt that the entire palace was too quiet, with no sound at all, only the sound of the wind blowing through the leaves and the little bugs in the corner of the wall.
At this moment, I had already walked outside the gate of Jingren Palace.
The quiet feeling became clearer and even abrupt.
I stood outside the palace gate, and the place between the door was clear, but I looked at the long corridor leading to the distance, the darkness and silence, but suddenly I felt an indescribable sense of solemnity, as if something was about to rush out of the darkness.
