"Who?" Chang'an blinked, seemingly not hearing clearly what the emperor was saying, and pretended to ask, "Who is your father talking about? Who will become the emperor of Shuzhou?"
"Xuan'er." The emperor's smile could be described as the compassion of Buddha.
"Haha!" Chang'an laughed, and in his heart he added, "Father, are you kidding me? Him? Bei Mingxuan is the emperor, you are forcing him to die sooner, okay? Given the current situation, the prince's life still needs to be kept alive by drugs. Let him be the emperor, you might as well kill him immediately, it would be much easier."
"You little girl." The emperor looked straight at Chang'an, trying to read her expression to see if she was really saying what she was saying. "When Xuan'er becomes the emperor in the future, you will be the empress, the mother of the country. That is an honor above everyone else. Don't you want that?"
"I don't want to!" Chang'an shook his head and said it affirmatively.
"If you want to be the emperor's woman, you're either a fool or a lunatic. You'll have to share a man with many women for your whole life, and be harmed by them all the time. After you have children, you'll have to fight for your own children. What's wrong with me that I have to not go with myself?"
"Do you really think so?" The emperor didn't believe it, "But you still can't escape and have to share the fate of a man with other women.
Every man has more than one woman by his side."
"Of course not. My father only has my mother by his side." Chang'an immediately retorted, "Even though my mother passed away many years ago, my father never had the slightest thought of remarrying. My mother has always lived in my father's heart."
“…” The emperor was speechless.
"Father, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Thank you for letting me marry Bei Mingxuan instead of any other prince." Chang'an said sincerely, with deep gratitude in his eyes. "The days with Bei Mingxuan are peaceful and comfortable.
Look again, the eldest prince, the crown prince and the fourth prince, isn't it clearly written in their eyes, I want the throne, I want to be the emperor.
If Chang An really married one of them, she would be entering hell, and she would never have a peaceful life for the rest of her life."
"It's clearly written?" The emperor's eyes were sharp.
Chang An blinked, smiled awkwardly, and pretended that he had said it accidentally, "Father, please pretend that you didn't hear anything, okay?
A gust of wind blew past my ears and everything disappeared, so I couldn't hear anything. Chang'an's words were blown away by the wind."
Bei Mingxuan lay on the bed, his lips twitching involuntarily. In his heart, there were ten thousand thoughts: "My woman! My woman! My woman!"
"Don't say anything like that outside." The emperor didn't intend to make a fuss at this moment. "If you leave this room and I hear you, your head will be chopped off."
"Of course, of course." Chang'an immediately said flatteringly, "Chang'an will keep his head and please father."
The emperor felt that he had been talking with Chang'an for quite some time, and his lips were dry. He turned around and saw that Bei Mingxuan was still sleeping. "Why hasn't Xuan'er woken up in such a long time? We talked but couldn't wake him up. Could something have happened?"
The emperor was really worried when he said this, "Or should we call the imperial physician?"
"Father." Chang'an got a cup of tea and handed it to the emperor. "Don't worry. The prince has taken medicine. He will wake up naturally after the effect of the medicine wears off."
In fact, Bei Mingxuan did not use any medicine. Chang'an just pressed his acupoints. He looked like he was asleep, but his consciousness was clear.
"Yes." The emperor nodded. "I heard that the Crown Prince Dongfang Ge of Shijin Kingdom stole the Qilin Military Token from you and stabbed Xuan'er with an Ice Blade. I heard that this Ice Blade is specially made for cold poisons. If someone with cold poison is injured by this knife, they will die instantly."
"Yes." Chang'an's eyes dimmed. "I believe that the emperor's people have already told you about the situation at that time."
The emperor didn't say anything, but his eyes twitched and he muttered to himself, "He really doesn't give me any face at all."
Even if you know that those people will report something, there is no need to say it so bluntly, "Chang'an, you have to save face for your father."
Chang'an blinked his eyes, a smile on his lips, "Father, you are overthinking it. I am really happy that you can send your own secret guards to protect you all the way.
We know that the emperor has us two in his heart, and those secret guards will tell you what happened after they come back.
I guess my father must be worried about us and asked them, otherwise those secret guards would not say more.
All this only shows that Father is worried about us. How could Father think that Chang'an doesn't give you face? "
"!!!" The emperor laughed cheerfully, feeling as if he was judging others by his own standards. "You're right, I'm narrow-minded."
"I'm not that narrow-minded." Chang'an muttered softly.
"Hahaha!" The emperor was in a particularly good mood after listening to Chang'an's words. "To be honest, I regret marrying you to Xuan'er so early. If I had known you would be like this, I would have kept you by my side."
"..." Chang'an was stunned, then said, "Father, let me tell you something, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. You are being disrespectful to your elders, like an old cow eating young grass. You really have an extraordinary shamelessness."
"What?" The emperor's voice suddenly rose, his face flushed. "You actually said that I'm an old cow eating young grass, disrespectful to my elders, and shameless? Gu Chang'an, do you think you've lived too long?"
Eunuch De, who was guarding outside the door, couldn't help laughing out loud after hearing what the emperor said.
The emperor and Chang'an looked towards the door at the same time. Although the door was closed, they both seemed to see Eunuch De, with his fat face and smiling face.
"Father, isn't that what Chang'an said?" Chang'an deliberately lowered his voice and said.
"No!" The emperor said with a slightly exasperated look, "I want to keep you by my side as a maidservant. When did I ever say that you could enter my harem?"
"..." Chang'an was speechless and could only smile awkwardly.
"Haha, that's all I have to say." The emperor smiled happily, as if being able to leave Chang'an with no one to say about the traffic jam was an achievement.
It feels great.
Bei Mingxuan, lying on the couch, had wanted to wake up for a long time, but unfortunately, that girl Chang'an seemed to have forgotten Bei Mingxuan.
Bei Mingxuan felt helpless and had to open the acupuncture points by himself.
"Someone come here." Bei Mingxuan spoke slowly and quietly, "Help me up."
When Chang An heard Bei Mingxuan's voice, he realized that he seemed to have completely forgotten Bei Mingxuan. "Your Highness is awake? How do you feel?"
"Cold. I want hot water."
"good."
"Are you so intolerant to the cold?" The emperor's voice was flat, showing neither concern nor coldness.
