Chapter 122 Shangguan Nanfeng's Roar
"You think, you think, everything is just what you think. I usually indulge you too much!"
After scolding Concubine Hui, the emperor asked Su Yue about Shangguan Nanxing's condition. He was also concerned about whether he could be cured and when he would wake up.
Su Yue responded carefully one by one. After all, she knew about Shangguan Nanxing's condition before, so she tried to stick to the previous symptoms and make it sound a little more serious.
The emperor just listened to Su Yue's story quietly, his face becoming more and more gloomy as Su Yue spoke.
Shangguan Nanfeng, who was standing aside, wanted to argue because Concubine Hui had taken all the blame before, but when he met Concubine Hui's warning look, he kept silent.
However, the feeling of not being able to speak out what was in his heart was too suffocating, as if someone was strangling his throat, and Shangguan Nanfeng's face did not look good.
Zhuge Ruo from the Imperial Observatory said something about colliding with the Nian beast, but he didn't believe a word of it. What about the great catastrophe? Zhuge Ruo was just talking nonsense!
Shangguan Nanfeng just looked at Shangguan Nanxing, whose pale face and the blood on the corner of his mouth were wiped clean by Su Yue himself. Looking at Su Yue's gentle movements, he felt an indescribable sourness rising to his throat.
Why? What is so good about Shangguan Nanxing? How could Shangguan Nanxing, who is sick and weak, attract Su Yue?
Shangguan Nanfeng stared at Su Yue with an unwilling look, and his undisguised expression was inadvertently seen by the emperor.
The emperor was an experienced man. His second son was full of vigor and vitality, so of course he understood what that look meant.
However, Shangguan Nanfeng can like anyone except Su Yue. He won’t allow it!
Su Yue was destined to bring happiness to Xing'er, regardless of the bet.
Concubine Hui had been with the emperor for so long, and she guessed the emperor's thoughts correctly.
In the emperor's heart, Su Yue has always been Shangguan Nanxing's "good medicine". This was also the fundamental reason why he did not want to kill Su Yue even though Su Yue had offended him so much in the Golden Palace before.
In the eyes of the emperor, nothing and no one is more important than Shangguan Nanxing's life.
It's his second son who desires Su Yue. He desires Su Yue, which means he wants Shangguan Nanxing's life. He won't allow it!
The emperor glanced at Shangguan Nanfeng again and saw that his second son was still looking at Su Yue and didn't notice his gaze at all. The emperor said nothing, but there were too many emotions in his eyes.
Concubine Hui, who was kneeling beside him, didn't dare to raise her head, so she naturally didn't notice the emperor's look at this time.
The reason why Concubine Hui repeatedly warned Shangguan Nanfeng not to touch Su Yue at will was because she was afraid that the emperor would find out. However, despite all Concubine Hui's careful planning, the emperor still found out.
In the emperor's life, not even the empress had ever received his love. The woman he loved most in his life was Concubine Xian, the mother of Shangguan Nanxing.
Moreover, the emperor favored Concubine Xian alone, which caused resentment in the harem. It was not only Concubine Hui who wanted to kill Concubine Xian.
Later, Concubine Xian died of hemorrhage while giving birth to Shangguan Nanxing. Of course, Concubine Hui was definitely involved in Concubine Xian's death, but it was not just Concubine Hui.
I thought that the death of the virtuous concubine was fine, leaving behind a sickly third prince who looked like a bean sprout, what kind of waves would that cause?
So she no longer paid attention to the Third Prince, but instead used most of her energy to fight in the harem to pave the way for Shangguan Nanfeng to become emperor.
But Concubine Hui had planned everything, but she had not expected that as Shangguan Nanxing grew up, he would look more and more like Concubine Xian.
The emperor was already depressed about the death of Concubine Xian, and felt sorry for her. As Shangguan Nanxing looked more and more like Concubine Xian, he became more and more fond of Shangguan Nanxing out of guilt and want to make amends.
Seeing that the atmosphere was set, Su Yue took a deep breath and spoke as if she had made some important decision:
"Your Majesty, I would like to speak for the Third Prince. Ruofeng has already told me the general situation on the way.
It is taboo to see a doctor during the Chinese New Year. Even ordinary people would not go to the pharmacy unless it is absolutely necessary. Moreover, Lord Zhuge just took the trouble to tell fortunes for the third prince, regardless of whether the fortune was accurate or not.
The Third Prince is indeed in a coma because of this incident. I can cure the Third Prince once, but will there be a second, third, or even many times?
The third prince is already weak and cannot stand any stimulation. Even if he were an ordinary person, he would not feel comfortable if he was forced like this.
Seeing that the emperor is sympathetic to the third prince's illness, I dared to say a little more. The third prince's illness cannot withstand such torture. If the emperor is truly sympathetic. I hope that such things will not happen again in the future.
Otherwise, even if a Daluo Immortal came, it might be..."
"How dare you! Stop talking nonsense!" Su Yue was interrupted by the emperor before he could finish his words. He really couldn't bear to hear what the consequences would be for Shangguan Nanxing.
The reason why he did not stop Concubine Hui and the other woman just now was because what she said made some sense, and seeing a doctor during the New Year was a taboo, and he did not think it would really come true.
Even the divination Zhuge Ruo had just told him, he was only half-believing and half-doubting. But what Su Yue said, that Xing'er fainted due to depression, sounded much more reliable.
"Xing'er, this time, it was your father who was careless." The emperor lowered his eyes and looked at Shangguan Nanxing, whose face was pale, and his heart began to feel uncomfortable.
The emperor was most afraid of Shangguan Nanxing showing this expression, because it was similar to his mother's face. Every time he showed this expression, he couldn't help but think of that night eighteen years ago.
The woman he loved died in his arms, with the same pale face.
"Concubine Hui, Feng'er, from now on, I will not allow you to do anything like what happened today. Also, don't come to the Third Prince's Mansion from now on. If you do it next time, don't blame me for being ruthless."
After the emperor said this, he didn't even raise his head. He just looked at Shangguan Nanxing with his eyes closed and stopped talking.
"Your Majesty! I really mean well!" After hearing what the emperor said, Concubine Hui looked up in disbelief. Just because of this, was he going to avoid them and their son like the plague?
"Father, are you favoring my third brother too much?" Shangguan Nanfeng was still dissatisfied when he heard the emperor's words.
"I don't need you to interfere in what I do!" The emperor could still hear the dissatisfaction in Shangguan Nanfeng's words, but he didn't care.
"Feng'er, stop talking." Concubine Hui heard the dissatisfaction in Shangguan Nanfeng's tone and was afraid that he would get into trouble, so she quickly spoke out to stop him.
But now, Shangguan Nanfeng just wants to vent. His father always doted on his third brother, which was why he liked to bully Shangguan Nanxing since he was a child.
He felt that his father's love was almost all given to Shangguan Nanxing. He was also his father's son. Why couldn't he even look at him?
He was not convinced, he had been unwilling to accept it since he was a child. Coupled with what happened tonight, Shangguan Nanfeng finally shouted out his dissatisfaction hysterically.
Even though Concubine Hui beside him kept signaling him to shut up, the words in his heart, once he opened his mouth, were filled with grievances and were like a flood that broke through the dam and could not be stopped.
