The Sickly Scion’s Petite Wife Is Sweet And Cool

   Chapter 447 Hands-on (two more)

After the    emperor was assassinated, the palace was under martial law all the time.

   All the concubines were ordered to copy the scriptures in their respective palaces by a decree issued by Concubine Liu Gui, in the name of praying for the emperor, all the concubines dared not to speak out.

  The people in the palace are even more daring to come out with one, and they do things carefully, for fear that if one is not good, the master will use it as a punching bag.

  I thought it would be better if the queen mother returned to the palace. She didn't want all the concubines to go to the Cining Palace to greet her, but she was told that the queen mother was copying scriptures for the emperor and it was inconvenient to see people.

  The concubines and concubines were dumbfounded. The empress dowagers were copying scriptures. Could they be more noble than the empress dowager? Or do you not want the emperor?

   As a result, I dare not complain anymore.

  In the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Eunuch Li and Eunuch Deng helped the emperor clean his body and put on clean clothes. They were already sweating profusely.

   Although they are also servants, they can be the eunuchs beside the emperor. Whenever they need to do it themselves, if they give an order, naturally there are people who are rushing to help.

   But the situation is different now. In order to avoid too many people and mixed speeches, the emperor has to do everything by themselves, and they are still in fear all day long. After more than half a month, the two lost ten pounds.

  The emperor had a piece of cloth stuffed in his mouth and was staring at the two of them.

  As long as he is awake, he basically looks like this. After such a long time, the two of them are still a little frightened.

   Eunuch Li said with a pleasing smile: "Your Majesty, this old slave will change a piece of cloth for you."

The    emperor gasped his nostrils with anger and continued to stare at him.

   Eunuch Li flinched, and summoned up his courage to stretch out his hand to pull out the cloth that had been soaked in saliva from his mouth, and Eunuch Deng put a new ball back on his horse.

   "Your Majesty, we are doing this because we are afraid that you will bite your tongue. If you persist, someone will come to rescue us soon." Eunuch Deng explained.

  …

   After a day of heavy rain, the light rain continued. Listening to the sound of rain outside the house, the two felt inexplicably sad.

   They knew better than anyone that once Shangguanpu succeeded in ascending the throne, the first to be killed would be their two insiders.

   Heartfelt martyrdom, what a good reason…

   While sighing and sighing, the door of the hall was pushed open from the outside, and the two of them hurriedly greeted them.

   "His Royal Highness King Jing."

  Shangguanpu didn't even look at the two of them, and went straight to the inner hall.

   Eunuch Li and Eunuch Deng looked at each other and quickly followed.

  Shangguanpu walked to the dragon's bed, stretched out his hand to pick up the bright yellow curtain, and unexpectedly met the emperor's eyes.

   Seeing the cloth ball in his mouth, Shangguanpu turned around and kicked Deng and Li's father-in-law to the ground, and said angrily: "Dog slaves, that's how you take care of my father and emperor?"

Eunuch Deng and Eunuch Li fell into a ball, disregarding the pain on their bodies, and hurriedly knelt down: "His Royal Highness forgives my sin, this old slave is also worried that His Majesty will suddenly be able to speak and call people outside, in case it destroys His Highness. s plan…"

  Shangguanpu raised his eyebrows: "Oh, so you are all for me?"

   "The two old slaves will never dare to deceive Your Highness." The two father-in-laws of Deng Li said in a trembling voice.

  Shangguanpu sneered, sat down on the edge of the dragon's bed, and stretched out his hand to pull the cloth out of the emperor's mouth.

   "Don't worry, this Hall of Mental Cultivation is filled with people from this king, not to mention that the father is not good, no one will come in even if you can shout."

  Deng Li's two father-in-laws were bitter in their hearts: "Then the old slave can rest assured."

  The emperor was like a beast that was only bound by his limbs and tried to break free. His whole body trembled violently, his forehead was bulging, and he stared at the three of them, wishing that he could make a hole in them.

  Shangguanpu glanced at him condescendingly and said with a smile: "Father, don't be angry, my son has already taught these two dog slaves a lesson."

   He said and picked up the cloth in his hand to wipe the drool from the corner of his mouth.

   I don't know where the emperor's strength came from, so he raised his head and bit Shangguanpu's hand.

  Shangguanpu abruptly pulled out his hand, blood was already seen in the circle of teeth marks on it, his eyes were cold, and he slapped the emperor's head with a backhand.

   However, he was still not relieved, he raised his hand and wanted to continue fighting.

   Eunuch Li didn't have time to think about it, so he rushed over and hugged him: "Your Highness, no, Your Highness..."

   "Dog slave, you are courting death." Shangguanpu kicked him down with one foot, took two steps forward and stretched out his hand to grab his neck, tightening it.

   Eunuch Li's face quickly turned red, and he was speechless because he was trembling.

   Eunuch Deng hurriedly explained: "His Royal Highness calm down, Eunuch Li is also for His Highness's sake. If Mrs. Gai Minger later saw the injury on His Majesty's face, she would definitely have doubts in her heart, then what His Highness did before would have been for nothing."

   "Yes... old slave... also... for His Highness..." Eunuch Li rolled his eyes and squeezed out such a sentence from the gap between his teeth.

  Shangguanpu let go with a cold snort.

   Eunuch Li slumped and sat down softly, kowtowing to Shangguanpu again and again without caring about anything else: "Thank you, Your Highness, thank you Your Highness."

   "Go and prepare ink and imperial edict."

   Eunuch Li froze, screaming badly in his heart.

  Shangguanpu narrowed his eyes: "Why, don't you want to go?"

   Eunuch Li's scalp was numb when he was seen, and what happened just now made him feel lingering fears, so he could only bite the bullet and climb out of the inner hall.

   "By the way, don't forget to bring the jade seal with you."

   Eunuch Deng said flatteringly: "He can't take so much by himself, this old slave can take it."

  Shangguanpu was very satisfied with his knowledge and waved his hand.

   He sat down beside the dragon bed again, thinking about what to do next, in a good mood, reached out and turned the emperor's head back, and wiped the blood from his hands on his body.

"Father, the common people are now clamoring for the emperor's uncle who kidnapped and sold innocent women to pay for his life, and the courtiers have also filed a lawsuit for his assassination, saying that he will be severely punished. He has committed so many evil deeds. Why don't you write the imperial edict today..."

   "How about beheading in three days?"

   "You agree? Sure enough, he is my good father."

"Actually, apart from this today, my son has something else to do. Father, you are very old, and you still have a stroke, and you don't know when you will lose your breath. But the country cannot live without a ruler for a day. Write the imperial edict together."

   "What? You want to pass this position to me? Also, none of my brothers are good-looking. Who else is competent except me?"

   "Your Majesty, don't worry, my son will take care of Daxia well and won't let you down."

   "Bang~" Although he had guessed it in his heart, Eunuch Li shuddered when he heard it, and the inkstone in his hand fell directly without holding it firmly.

  Shangguanpu turned around and said, "Father Li, you are too old to hold an inkstone."

   "By the way, you seem to have grown up with my father, the emperor. You say, is he also old and should abdicate to become a wise man?"

   "Yes, yes, His Royal Highness King Jing is right." Eunuch Deng walked in with the jade seal in his hands and echoed.

  Shangguanpu laughed: "Eunuch Deng can still speak, then you can write these two imperial edicts."

   Eunuch Deng regretted so much in his heart, he was just a mortal enemy, let him die, why did he talk so much?

   It is useless to regret any more, so I can only start drafting the edict according to Shangguanpu's request.

   There were two imperial decrees in total, one to condemn and the other to pass the throne. By the time they were finished, Eunuch Deng’s back was already wet with cold sweat.

   He had drawn up so many edicts for the emperor, and it was the first time he found it so difficult to write one stroke at a time.

  Shangguanpu brought it over and checked it, nodded with satisfaction, and stretched out his hand: "Bring the jade seal here."

   Eunuch Li handed the jade seal over with shaking hands.

  Emperor's pupils dilated rapidly and his body shook violently.

"Father, don't worry, it'll be fine soon." He picked up the jade seal and was about to cover it on the imperial decree. Thinking of something, he paused and looked at the emperor with a smile: "Oh, you want to come in person? Of course my son will satisfy you. ."

   After saying that, he grabbed the emperor's stiff hand, put the jade seal in, and took the jade seal with his hand to cover the imperial decree of condemnation.

   was about to change another way, when the little eunuch's greeting came from outside the door: "The servant greets the empress dowager."

   "No gift."

  Shangguanpu frowned and glanced at Deng and Li's father-in-law. The two understood and hurriedly put away their things.

When Empress Dowager Wei entered the inner hall, she saw Shangguanpu sitting beside the dragon bed and rubbing the emperor's hands.

   Eunuch Deng and Eunuch Li looked at each other and were about to kneel down to salute her, but Empress Wei waved her hand to stop it.

  Shangguanpu pressed one hand on the emperor, and was about to switch to the other, as if he noticed something turning around.

   "Grandmother." He hurriedly stood up.

  The Empress Dowager Wei stepped forward and glanced at the emperor with his eyes closed on the dragon bed, and asked, "What are you doing?"

  Shangguanpu: "The imperial doctor said that the emperor could not move his body after a stroke, so he needs to press and move his limbs like this from time to time."

  The Queen Mother nodded: "It's fine to let the palace staff do this kind of thing, why do you need to come in person."

  Shangguanpu lowered his eyes: "The grandson wants to do something for the emperor."

   Eunuch Deng followed suit and said, "His Royal Highness King Jing is worried about His Majesty's body and will come to take care of him every day."

  Empress Dowager Wei looked at Shangguanpu lovingly: "You are a filial one."

   "This is what the grandson should do." Shangguanpu said humbly. Seeing that the Queen Mother Wei sat down beside the dragon's bed and didn't want to leave, he asked unintentionally, "Is the grandmother coming so late so worried about my father?"

  The Empress Dowager Wei sighed and stretched out her hand to tuck the quilt for the emperor: "Aijia has always dreamed of the late emperor these past two days."

  Shangguanpu frowned, how could he be so familiar with this beginning?

"He was standing in front of a Buddha statue and scolded Aijia for not taking good care of the emperor." Empress Wei looked tired and continued: "Aijia thought about it carefully, why did the late emperor stand in front of the Buddha statue? Could it be? What are you guiding Aijia?"

  Shangguanpu: "What does the grandmother mean?"

   The hearts of both Deng and Li’s father-in-law were raised.

Empress Dowager Wei withdrew her hand and looked at Shangguanpu: "The emperor's stroke is inexplicable, and the imperial doctor has not cured him for so many days. It is better to let Lingyin Temple hold a blessing ceremony and take the emperor there to listen to the host. Try chanting."

   "Grandmother, those things..."

   "The eldest brother should also believe in Buddhism, right? After all, your mother and concubine let all the women in the harem copy the scriptures."

   Shangguanpu's eyes darkened: "Has the imperial grandmother set a date?"

  The Empress Dowager Wei nodded: "I have sent a letter to the host of Lingyin Temple, and he replied that three days will be a good day."

   After a pause, she added: "I think the news has already spread."

   To pray for the emperor, and the time is so urgent, Lingyin Temple must first empty the temple, and notify that it will not entertain pilgrims for the next few days. In order not to offend people, the emperor must be moved out.

   The fist under Shangguanpu's sleeve clenched secretly: "Then do it according to the wishes of the emperor's grandmother. I hope the blessing ceremony can really make the father and emperor recover."

  The Queen Mother Wei nodded and stood up: "It's not too early, it's not suitable for you to stay in the palace at night. It's a bit gossip, so you should leave the palace early."

"Yes."

  The Queen Mother Wei watched him not move.

  Shangguanpu:…

   "I'm going out with the royal grandmother."

  Empress Dowager Wei nodded, turned and walked out. Shangguanpu followed slowly, and when he brushed shoulders with Deng and Li's father-in-law, he glanced at the two of them calmly, implying obvious meaning.

   The two knelt down quickly: "Respectfully send off the Queen Mother, His Royal Highness King Jing."

The door of the    hall opened and closed, and the two of them sighed in relief and sat on the ground together.

   "Father Li, what can we do now?" Shangguanpu just now meant that they should continue what they had not done.

   Eunuch Li let out a long breath: "If you ask our family, how does our family know."

   Deng Gonggong gave him a white look: "Just now our family shouldn't have saved you."

   Eunuch Li opened his mouth and wanted to go back.

   The person beside him suddenly fell to one side, and he was startled, subconsciously wanting to call someone, and he lost consciousness with his eyelids before he could say anything.

   At the same time, the dark guards hiding on the beams also fainted one by one.

   The next moment, two men in black landed by the dragon's bed.

  …

  About an incense stick, the dark guards woke up one after another and hurriedly flew down.

   "What... what's going on?" Eunuch Li woke up leisurely and was startled when he saw so many people suddenly appeared in the hall.

   Don't these people usually just stay on the beam?

   The dark guard ignored him, turned and walked towards the dragon bed.

  Dragon bed, the emperor is still lying there.

   Chief Dark Guard breathed a sigh of relief, waved his hand, and took the man back to his position.

   didn't notice Eunuch Li's ghostly eyes.

   Eunuch Li rubbed his eyes, stepped forward in disbelief, took out the handkerchief and carefully wiped it on the emperor's face.

  No, really gone?

  The Queen Mother Wei just now was too sudden. They could only hurriedly put a layer of powder on the emperor's face to cover up the slap print. If you look closely, you can still see it.

   But it's completely gone now.

   Eunuch Deng, who woke up at the back, came over strangely, and was also shocked.

   If the two imperial edicts were not still in his arms, he would have thought that everything that had just happened was a dream.

   But the person lying on the dragon bed is clearly His Majesty's face! Even the blood stains that King Jing wiped on his clothes were still there.

  The two looked at each other and silently lowered the curtain...

   In the dark night, a shadow passed silently above the palace under the cover of the rain.

   After a while, the shadow flew out of the palace, flying over the eaves and walls, and arrived at Liuer Street very quickly, landing in the backyard of the Song family.

  Shen Yijia was dozing off in Song Jingchen's arms, her head was a little bit, when she heard the movement, she raised her head agitatedly, her eyes lit up: "Youyi, are you back?"

  Song Jingchen glanced at You, his eyes darkened.

  Youichi:…
