"Your Majesty has caught a cold and is feeling unwell. You are currently resting in bed. You will not attend the morning court for the next three days. If you have any urgent matters, please submit memorials. Your Majesty will find time to review them. I hereby order."
Eunuch Lin stood in the center of the hall, closed the imperial edict in his hand, and looked at the ministers standing on both sides with different expressions.
The ministers were talking about it for a while.
The emperor had health problems shortly after he came to power. Was this an accident or a coincidence?
How many more years can the Jing Dynasty, which was established not long ago, exist?
It's not that they are overthinking it, after all, there have been many examples in the past.
For some unknown reason, several outstanding emperors in the past three hundred years died young, with the longest-lived emperor only living past the age of thirty-two.
They lived quite long lives despite their incompetence and one of them even lived to the ripe old age of one hundred.
Could it be that this cruel emperor will also die like the previous emperors?
Li Xuanyi: I just soaked in water for too long, and you guys curse me like this!
Eunuch Lin: "My Lords, do you have any questions?"
A minister who was often choked by Li Xuanyi's words and was speechless said loudly:
"There is no doubt that I wish Your Majesty a speedy recovery."
An old man with a white beard stood up.
"Eunuch Lin, I often caught colds when I was young, but I've recovered now. I have extensive research on colds, and I wonder if I could share some insights with Your Majesty."
The newly enthroned emperor was in his twenties and in his prime, so he had no problem reviewing memorials all day long.
It's really strange that I suddenly caught a cold.
Eunuch Lin lived for more than fifty years and served two emperors, a total of more than thirty years.
As the saying goes, there are no fools around the emperor.
If he didn't even know what this old minister meant, he would have been dragged out and beaten to death by the emperor long ago.
"That's possible, but His Majesty is currently suffering from a severe cold. This morning, he has already infected three young eunuchs. I'm afraid it will spread to the Prime Minister, which would be a huge loss."
He paused and said, "It won't be too late to discuss this again once your Majesty's health has improved."
The Prime Minister stroked the tablet in his hand.
It was obviously perfunctory, but didn't it indirectly indicate that the emperor couldn't see anyone at this time?
"In that case, I wish Your Majesty good health."
He was just testing the waters, after all, the man on the throne was truly ruthless.
If he knew that he was trying to find out his secrets, he would be furious.
"I will convey this to Your Majesty."
"Since there is nothing else, let's withdraw from the court."

"Where is this place?"
The musician turned and asked in the direction where the sound of water came from.
He lay on the couch, his eyes covered with a layer of white gauze.
It was a new one, not the one that Li Xuanyi's men had forced on him.
It seems to have the scent of gardenia, which is elegant and refreshing.
The musician thought he was having a sweet dream.
Ever since he was brought to that dark room, he felt his body getting worse day by day.
The only things that accompanied him through the darkness were his dreams.
Nine times out of ten, her figure appeared in his dreams.
It could be the smiling eyes, the cold profile, or the dancing hair.
Maybe his life is coming to an end.
He didn't expect that he would see her again at the last moment.
"System, what's the name of the musician?"
"Xu Qingyan."
"This name suits his temperament very well."
Su Yumo picked up the cloth beside him and wiped his face.
"This is a small house in Jiangnan. We'll stay here for now. Once you're better, we'll look for a better place."
After wiping the water droplets off her face, she raised an eyebrow and asked, "How is it?"
Xu Qingyan asked in a low voice, "Jiangnan?"
His voice didn't sound like the first time he'd heard this place, but more like a memory.
Su Yumo asked curiously: "Yes, it's Jiangnan. Have you been here before?"
He turned his head, looked at the roof, and then chuckled.
"I've been here, so I'm from Jiangnan."
What a coincidence, fellow countryman!
When the system asked her where she wanted to go, she said Jiangnan without thinking.
She was born and raised in Jiangnan and has a unique feeling for that place.
Plus, she wanted to see what Jiangnan looked like in ancient times.
She wanted to have her own cabin so that when it rained, she could sit on the porch and listen to the sound of the rain.
The modern Jiangnan is called Jiangnan, but it always feels like it lacks something.
So the system generously snapped its fingers, and the two of them came to this small house.
She washed the cloth in the wooden basin, then took the cloth and walked towards Xu Qingyan, talking as she walked.
"Okay, then when you get better, you must take me around and try all the delicious food in Jiangnan."
He shook his head, "I'm afraid it would be difficult for me to survive in this body."
"Who said that? The doctor examined you and said it was nothing serious."
Su Yumo walked to the side of the couch, bent down and asked: "Do you want to wipe your face yourself or should I do it for you?"
Hearing this, a hint of pink brushed past Xu Qingyan's ears.
"Oh shit."
Seeing Xu Qingyan sit up, Su Yumo sat on a wooden chair with a backrest next to him.
"If you can't walk, you can get a wheelchair and I'll push you. Since I can push you, it doesn't matter whether you can see or not."
"You won't be able to see these beautiful views, but I can describe them to you. I'm quite eloquent."
While praising himself, he also did not forget to curse Li Xuanyi.
"Don't listen to Li Xuanyi's men trying to scare you. They can't say a good word. You are still as pretty as ever."
