Chapter 130 The Old Emperor

If the old emperor dies, Baili Jun ascends the throne, and Empress Guo becomes the empress dowager, wouldn't she be even more powerful? The unjust case will never be redressed.

Zhaoyang originally planned to let it go. After all, he has lived for most of his life. When he is old, how can he worry about other things?

But every time he sees Xianyin and learns about the humiliation she suffered when she was wandering, he can't rest in peace.

In addition, Lu Huaihe is still an official in the court, and his days are still far away. The existence of Empress Guo is always a cancer.

It's better to cut it off!

Su He finally understood the purpose of Empress Guo calling them to the palace.

What about greeting each other after not seeing each other for a long time?

It's all fake.

She was clearly using the excuse of a small talk to warn the princess that if she did anything rash, no one would know what would happen in the future.

After all, Lu Huaihe's every move was under her eyes.

"Good sisters are no longer in this world, so they will naturally miss them. I am not like the queen who doesn't care about sisterhood." Zhaoyang's eyes squinted, and her words were even more pointed.

When she first took the throne of the queen, the foundation of the Guo family was not stable, so her family sent a younger sister to the palace to serve the emperor together with Queen Guo.

In the blink of an eye, the younger sister became pregnant with the heir, but Queen Guo failed to give birth. Fortunately, the children were born from the Guo sisters' bellies after all, which consolidated the status of the Guo family.

But on the day of her sister's birth, she died of hemorrhage, leaving behind only her poor son. His Majesty was kindhearted and worried that outsiders would not be able to take good care of the prince, so he passed the throne to Queen Guo, now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

As to whether he died of hemorrhage caused by childbirth or had other plans, there is no way to investigate now.

Queen Guo took a deep breath and smiled coldly.

"It's a rare opportunity to enter the palace, so you should go and see the emperor. We don't know when the next time will be."

She began to drive people away.

Zhaoyang stood up: "I am also tired of sitting, so it's a good time to go out for a walk. Queen, there is nothing to do in your palace, you can light more incense." "

Why?"

"I smell the smell on you and feel a little sick."

Zhaoyang said this without hesitation and left.

Hua Shi couldn't wait to stand up and take the blame, but was glared at by Queen Guo.

"What is your identity? What is her identity? Do you want to curse back?"

Hua Shi sat down weakly, her voice as small as a mosquito: "It's not impossible."

"What did you say?"

"No! I didn't say anything!"

Hua Shi quickly shut up, not daring to provoke her when she was angry.

After a few seconds of silence in the palace, Hua Shi suddenly remembered that her husband had sent a letter back from the border at full speed, and also instructed to hand it to the queen personally. Hua

Shi's mind was a mess, and she couldn't understand anything, so she took out the letter and handed it to Queen Guo.

Queen Guo took it and scanned it coldly.

After a moment, her eyebrows wrinkled and her face became more serious.

"This is..."

"Queen, what's written on it?" Hua Shi asked.

Empress Guo said absentmindedly, "It's just some letters asking about relatives and friends."

Hua was puzzled: "But why did my husband ask the Empress to write to him personally? What did I think was going on?" Empress

Guo's eyebrows jumped, and she sent Hua out of Kunning Palace on the pretext that she was tired.

Then she took out the letter and read it carefully.

That's right.

There was a secret code on the letter, and after it was deciphered, it would show a sentence.

[The dynasty will change, and Guo can be established.]

Empress Guo held the letter for a while, and then threw it into the stove.

After leaving Kunning Palace, she was led by a special person and came to Zijin Palace.

The palace gate was wide open, and many palace servants walked in and out, holding many delicacies in their hands.

"The emperor has been resting all morning, and now he has just woken up and is having a meal." The eunuch reported.

Zhaoyang asked, "How is the emperor these days?"

"Not bad, much more energetic, and can even get out of bed and walk, without the help of palace servants."

"Before he was bedridden, but now he can get out of bed and walk, not bad." Zhaoyang remembered that when the emperor was healthy, he galloped on the battlefield and hunted thousands of miles away, just as good as the young Erlang. Now he has been ill for two or three years, and has only recently recovered.

Seeing that there was no one around, the eunuch bravely whispered to Zhaoyang, "The eldest princess doesn't know, but the emperor's condition has improved because he stopped taking the medicine. Otherwise, no one knows what his condition is now!" "

Stop taking the medicine? What's going on?"

"The eldest princess doesn't know, but the emperor has been taking the medicine given by the Empress for years since he was diagnosed with the disease. A few days ago, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince found a wandering Taoist priest to come to the palace to meet him. The Taoist priest asked the emperor to stop taking the medicine and recited a few spells. In addition, the Crown Prince has often sent people to deliver ginseng soup recently. The emperor is radiant after drinking it, and he can run and jump around without any problem."

Zhaoyang was actually surprised, "What kind of ginseng soup is it?"

The eunuch whispered in his ear.

"Human blood?"

"That's right. The prince has kept this a secret. But in the whole palace, what piece of news is impenetrable?"

Su He, who was walking behind, was slightly moved.

She had obviously just asked the Taoist to make up stories, but she didn't expect that by some strange coincidence, she would find a Taoist with real skills!

Amitabha.

She didn't mean to hurt anyone.

It was all debts from the previous life.

Entering the Purple Gold Palace, the air was filled with a faint smell of medicine.

The old emperor leaned on the gold-inlaid purple gold armchair and ate quietly.

His hands were shaking badly, so the palace servants served him food and soup.

When Zhaoyang saw that he was in good spirits, which was indeed in contrast to his previous decadent appearance, he believed in the human blood ginseng soup.

"Royal brother, I haven't seen you for a long time. It seems that you have recovered well."

In front of his brother, Zhaoyang was not bound by etiquette. Su He, who was following behind him, bowed and called out,

"Your Majesty, what are you doing here?"

The old emperor pushed the soup bowl in front of him, and the palace servants immediately handed him a handkerchief to wipe his mouth. The dishes on the table were also taken away, and all the actions were smooth and flowing.

No one made a sound during the process of removing the dishes, and even the footsteps were silent.

Su He secretly lamented that the rules in the palace were too strict.

"Is this Huai He's new bride?"

The old emperor had a smile on his face and was particularly intimate when he mentioned Huai He.

"I, Su He, pay my respects to His Majesty."

"Don't be so polite. Look at your mother. She treats the Purple Gold Palace as her own home." His slightly joking tone made Su He's tense mood relax.

Looking at Zhao Yang again, after entering the inner hall, he scanned the area and looked at all the palace servants on duty. Finally, he walked up to the old emperor and asked, "Did you change people?"

"Yes." " Did you

stop taking the previous medicine?"

"Yes."

Su He listened quietly to the questions and answers between the siblings, not daring to say a word.

A palace servant came in with freshly made lotus root cakes.

Zhao Yang knew at a glance that it was someone from Kunning Palace.

So he stopped talking.
