"...Ah? Your Highness, what do you mean?"
The captain of the guards, knowing that he had misunderstood, no longer dared to speculate secretly. He could only lower his head and ask in fear, for fear of meeting those sharp eyes.
"What I mean is that Your Majesty can do whatever he wants, and you don't have to stop him!" Huo Cenji glanced at the vermilion door and lowered his voice as if he had some concerns.
"Yes!" Seeing this, the captain of the guards did not dare to speak loudly and responded in a low voice.
Huo Cenji pursed his lips for a long time before squeezing out a "hmm". He suddenly thought of something and his steps seemed to be extremely slow. But if you look closely, you will find that Huo Cenji's eyes drifted towards the palace opposite from time to time.
The captain of the guards was indeed a straightforward person. Seeing Huo Cenji said "hmm" and then remained silent, he asked sympathetically:
"Your Highness? Is there anything else?"
"……No!"
Huo Cenji's voice suddenly turned cold, and his feet seemed to have wind. After saying that, he left here quickly.
Somehow, the captain of the guards' hand unconsciously touched the hilt of the sword. He felt vaguely that His Royal Highness the Regent's departure was a little hasty, as if... he was a little unhappy?
He must have seen it wrong.
The captain of the guards quietly returned to his original position and passed on the freshly-made "order".
However, he was still a little confused. After all, the rumors that had been circulating before had explained the feud between the Regent and His Majesty. Some people even said that His Royal Highness the Regent was forced to do this by His Majesty.
If it weren't for Your Majesty's relentless pressure, how could the loyal regent lead his troops to surround the palace?
But now it seems that His Royal Highness the Regent not only did not hurt that person at all, but even allowed the little emperor to enter and leave the palace freely?
However, His Royal Highness the Regent is a man of foresight. How could they possibly understand every step he takes?
The captain of the guards shook his head and stood there obediently.
*
Ever since Liu Ziqing came back from Tang Yu, he has been a little absent-minded.
These days he had been thinking about the relationship between the Regent and the little Emperor.
Tang Yu succeeded to the throne at a young age. If there had not been a regent in charge of the precarious court, those ministers would probably have developed evil intentions long ago.
Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that the regent is the imperial teacher of the young emperor. Logically speaking, the young emperor should be grateful to the regent. Why did he press forward to seize power and even put the regent in a position of being unkind and unjust?
Not to mention that they have such a close relationship. The young emperor should have more trust in the regent. Why did it come to this?
After much thought, there seems to be only one clear answer, which is -
The little emperor was inherently heartless and had no conscience at all.
For him, getting rid of the regent was not only a solution to a major worry, but also an erasure of the unspeakable past, leaving himself with a good reputation.
Liu Ziqing sighed softly, feeling that if they really had to compare, His Royal Highness the Regent seemed to be much more affectionate and righteous.
He fought hard to return to the capital, and after breaking into the palace, not only did he not torture the ungrateful little emperor, but he was so merciful as to spare his life.
The word "love" is indeed unpredictable and difficult to grasp.
He was flipping through a medical book. After taking Tang Yu's pulse that day, he knew that Tang Yu was weak because of poisoning, but he still couldn't figure out what the poison was.
Although he took the patient's pulse again today, he still felt uncertain.
If this word gets out, it will definitely bring shame to Master.
As the last disciple of the miracle doctor, he had learned almost all of his master's true skills. He thought that there was no difficult disease in the world that could stump him, but now he was at a loss as to how to treat the poison in the little emperor.
It's really funny.
Although Liu Ziqing was a little discouraged, he did not give up. Instead, he looked through the medical books left by his master, hoping to get some clues from them.
However, before the clues were found, someone found him first.
The regent's trusted aides hurried over, nodded, and then stated their purpose directly:
"Please come with me, Mr. Liu. His Highness has something to ask you."
"Do you know what's going on?" Liu Ziqing asked as he stood up, smoothed out his slightly wrinkled robe, and followed his confidant.
"His Highness didn't say what it was, but it looks like... His Highness's expression seems a little solemn." The confidant walked in front without stopping, but he slightly tilted his body when speaking.
Although Liu Ziqing didn't know anything, he had a vague guess in his heart -
"I'm afraid it's about the little emperor again."
Facts proved that Liu Ziqing had guessed correctly.
The confidant took him to the door of the palace and then left. Liu Ziqing knocked on the door, and when he heard a cold "come in" from inside, he gently pushed the door open and walked in.
The pearl curtains fell, and not a trace of vivid colors could be seen in the dark palace.
It is said that when the young emperor and His Royal Highness the Regent were getting along well, he also showed his favoritism without exception.
This exquisite palace was personally bestowed by Tang Yu to His Royal Highness the Regent, and even the layout was designed according to His Royal Highness's preferences.
Since returning to the palace, His Highness has often lived here.
It would have been fine if he didn't know it before, but now that he knew the relationship between the little emperor and His Royal Highness the Regent, he could more or less guess the reason.
"What are you looking at?"
Huo Cenji's cold voice suddenly sounded, which scared Liu Ziqing, who was already feeling guilty.
He quickly averted his gaze and pretended to be dumbfounded: "Your Highness, why did you ask me to come here?"
