Liu Xian's anxious expression was mixed with anticipation, reflecting the grievance in his heart: "Anxious? Do you know how I have been living these years?"
Xing Bang hesitated a little, thinking that Cao Zhengchun was indeed like a worm in Liu Xian's stomach, so he informed him in advance so as not to pour cold water on our poor Majesty.
Don't be so impatient. Everything has to take time. How about tying some chopsticks together?
"Your Majesty, this is the first time I have experienced a patient like yours. I dare not make a hasty judgment on your health. I need to study it carefully for some time."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. Even if I have ten thousand heads, I would not dare to deceive Your Majesty. I will do my best to share your worries and repay Your Majesty's kindness!"
Xing Bang was not willing to say anything nonsense. He understood Liu Xian's current thoughts. Hearing the hope was like grabbing a life-saving straw. How could he let go? He wished he could cure him right now.
"Your Majesty, what the little stick said is right. You don't have to be too anxious. A matter as serious as smallpox has been resolved. This is a great blessing from God. Now it concerns your Majesty's health. I believe that good times will come. It's just a matter of time!"
Cao Zhengchun came out at the right time to smooth things over. As the saying goes, a bystander is less cautious. He also realized that Xing Bang might be helpless. He didn't hold out much hope in the first place, so he decided to keep it secret as long as possible. It would be even better if a miracle happened.
"Otomo has a point!"
"The little guy is my lucky general. I was a little too hasty just now."
Xing Bang and Cao Zhengchun cooperated perfectly, and Liu Xian immediately realized that he was too abrupt. After so many years, the anxiety in his heart subsided a lot.
What's more, what kind of fortune can be as great as the help from heaven!
The eradication of smallpox and the elixirs of the four elders, don’t these prove that I am blessed with great fortune?
Cao Zhengchun's words were very insightful and instantly relieved the troubled Liu Xian.
It can truly be said that the only one who understands me is my close companion!
Xing Bang also felt more at ease, knowing that with old man Cao Zhengchun on his side, there would be no problem at all.
"Okay, little Korean, I won't say much, just do your best!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, I will keep it in mind."
Then, without saying anything else, Xing Bang left the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
No matter what, Liu Xian placed all his hopes on himself, which invisibly increased his weight.
…
Xiao Mansion.
Xiao Guogang was sitting alone in the study room, deep in thought. On the one hand, Xiao Shizhong was dismissed from office, and on the other hand, the Sixth Prince was allowed to take charge of the Jinwu Guard. He really couldn't understand this emperor who had been behaving strangely recently.
It is impossible to figure out the intention behind this combination of good and bad.
Do you want to know whether Xiao Shizhong, who is already in the Tianlao, is dead or alive?
The dismissal was not necessarily a way of preserving his own safety, but Cui Sheng was not given any instructions...
Thinking about the past, I was just thinking about killing him, but then you got the good news that the Sixth Prince is in charge of the Jinwu Guard.
Even though this grandson might not be very useful, he still knew the character of his own daughter very well.
Xiao Guogang couldn't make up his mind at all...
At this moment, the old housekeeper came in and reported: "Master, the eldest young lady is here."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Guogang stood up and said, "Hurry up and let Su Yi in!"
My goodness, that girl is carrying her own grandson!
"Father!"
"Come on, Suyi, sit down and talk if you have anything to say."
The maidservant quickly helped Lin Suyi sit down...
"Suyi, I know you can't let go of Shizhong, but don't worry too much. I'm an old man and I will take care of everything. Just take care of yourself."
Xiao Guogang had a nervous and cautious expression on his face, because the baby in her belly was his own grandson, and he treasured it more than anything else!
If he had not been forced to do so, he would not have been willing to let his daughter-in-law go to the Queen's daughter to cry.
It can be said that the goal has been achieved. It is always good to show an attitude in front of His Majesty and ask for favors on behalf of the Xiao family.
It was precisely because Empress Xiao had pleaded for mercy and then promoted the Sixth Prince and entrusted him with an important task that I had to think positively. Otherwise, why would I be so uneasy?
"Father, what do you mean by this, Your Majesty? You dismissed Shizhong without any conclusion. And Cui Sheng is also an accomplice no matter how he tries to argue. Why didn't you dismiss him and investigate him?"
When Lin Suyi heard the news and figured out the situation, she immediately ran over anxiously. After all, as a woman, she usually didn't care about the affairs of the court. But now it concerned her husband, so she couldn't care less.
"Su Yi, don't worry. Your Majesty's actions are indeed hard to figure out!"
"But, son, don't worry. Even if it costs me my life, I will not let Shizhong get into any accidents. Also, I have sent someone to pass a message to your father. I believe he will make some arrangements soon."
Xiao Guogang didn't want to tell Lin Suyi about these important things, but if he didn't give her peace of mind, what would he do if she got worried and had a miscarriage?
"Ah? Father, you don't mean to let my dad..."
Lin Suyi blurted out in surprise, and the thought also flashed through her mind.
Xiao Guogang naturally understood what Lin Suyi was thinking. There were many masters in Shenjian Villa, and the relative of the villa owner was the supreme master in the martial arts world.
"Su Yi, don't worry about this matter. I have your father to help me, so don't worry!"
"Yes, father, the daughter-in-law has left."
Xiao Guogang had said so, so the sensible Lin Suyi naturally would not ask any more questions. However, she knew in her heart that it might not be as simple as she had imagined to break into the prison.
As she was speaking, Lin Suyi was about to get up and leave. Xiao Guogang quickly called out to her, and the two maids who were waiting outside the door hurried in.
After Lin Suyi left, Xiao Guogang drank a sip of tea, then frowned and said to the housekeeper standing next to him: "Old Cai, please make arrangements immediately to get that woman..."
"Yes, sir, I'll do it right away!"
The gray-haired old butler responded and walked out quickly.
…
Prince Yan's Palace.
"Stop, don't come any closer, who are you?"
A woman with a black veil covering her face appeared at the gate of the palace, and the guards immediately drew their swords and became alert.
"Big brother, I'm looking for the eunuch Xiao Xizi in your house. Please let him know!"
"Where did this wild girl come from? You can meet Eunuch Xi whenever you want. Leave now, or I will be rude to you."
The leading guard at Prince Yan's Mansion didn't buy it. Not knowing his identity and the fact that he had his face covered, and his voice wasn't gentle and soft, he would have been arrested as an assassin.
"Go and report it quickly. If you delay something important, you will be chopped off even if you have a hundred heads!"
