Su Li covered his wrist.
The bracelet was cold, with a layer of fog outside.
She did it by hand. Chu Zhan found that there were several blood bubbles in her palm.
"What on earth are you doing? You are still pregnant. Do you have to force yourself to do heavy work?" Chu Zhan reaches for her wrist.
Su Li was caught off guard, and the wound on his palm fell in each other's eyes.
One bubble after another.
The one in the palm has been damaged and pus is flowing out.
The rest of the blisters, though undamaged, were startling.
"What have you done?"
Su Li smiles and draws his hand back.
She could still think about things like rowing. Maybe Qi Mingzhang bit his teeth in order to learn from him and put up with it.
No matter what, this time, we must get Qi Mingzhang's forgiveness. Even if it's not from the heart, father and son should get along well. In the eyes of outsiders, he is still the prince with boundless scenery.
For a long time.
Qi Youju felt that his leg would be broken before he heard the emperor's voice.
"Yes?" Qi Mingzhang put down his writing brush, with some doubts on his face, "Why are you here?"
"The children's minister lifted the ban today, and came specially to say hello to his father," Qi Youju lowered his posture and kept his head down from the beginning of his speech.
Looks humble.
But in fact, it is not harboring evil intentions, who can see clearly.
Qi Mingzhang sighed, "get up."
"I dare not get up," Qi Youju said. Now the emperor is not indifferent. What should he do in case of settling accounts after autumn?
"King Mu has gone." Qi Mingzhang's tone is still light.
It seems that there is no anger, and it seems that everything doesn't care after anger.
Qi Youju doesn't understand what this means.
After a pause, Qi Mingzhang said again, "if others don't investigate, I will take it for granted that nothing has happened. Get up."
"Yes, father," Qi Youju thought for a while, but he still planned to carry out according to his plan. "Father, what happened last time, my son's son did not do well, and people caught hold of him. He made my father so passive that my son could not sleep and eat well. It was just a matter of banning his feet. The punishment was too small. My son asked my father to give my son a piece of wild land and let him reflect on himself."
Qi Mingzhang understood.
"You want a fiefdom?"
The sadness on Qi Youju's face was still hanging, and he was startled by his opponent's suddenly raised momentum, and his face was full of fear.
……
Su Li stretched himself.
Today's weather is good. Her stomach is bigger and her weight is growing.
Chu Zhan holding a box, see her sitting on the bench in the yard, leisurely, "you are leisurely."
Su Li glanced at the box. Even if he didn't look, he knew what was in it. "Is it a birthday gift for Qi Mingzhang?"
A few days later, Qi Mingzhang's 50th birthday, now the whole country has begun to prepare, and the Imperial Palace has begun to decorate, all of them are full of joy.
The banquet more than half a month ago didn't seem to have any effect.
But can this peaceful scene really last?
"That's right." Chu Zhan has been to the Imperial Palace, and he has settled the past quarrel with Qi Mingzhang. The most important thing is that Qi Mingzhang plans to give him all the rest of Qi's troops and horses, and let him stay in Mengcheng.
At this time, Chu Zhan knew that Qi Mingzhang had known before that he wanted to recover the state of Chu. After talking for a long time, they understood each other's thoughts.
Qi will not support the restoration of Chu, but it will not interfere.
But in this situation, the word "recovery" seems too heavy.
Qi Mingzhang asked him, do you want to be emperor?
Even if I sit on the Dragon chair all my life, with boundless brilliance, can I really live forever?
He also said that after being an emperor for a long time, he did not have the ability to protect his sister and manage his children well. Even the state treasury, which was also dragged down by him, was empty. After he died, he had no face to see the emperor.
Chu war is now open to the restoration of Chu, especially after a serious illness. Now Su Luo is his only relative. As Qi Mingzhang said, it is more important to protect his relatives than anything else.
"Aren't you ready?" With a smile, he put down the box and opened it. Inside, there was a golden Buddha statue. It was warm and kind-hearted, which made people happy.
Su Li's answer is not what he asked, "today, Qi Youju has come out."
"According to what you said, he has leaked the loopholes of the shops under his name to his confidants. He will take part in them when he asks Qi Mingzhang to have a good time."
Su Li nodded.
But Chu Zhan was puzzled, "are you so optimistic about the immature seventh prince? It's said that the strategy of literary and martial arts is not as good as that dandy's Qi you he. "Although Qi Mingzhang was cruel, he had to admit that he was very talented.
Su Li got up and said with a smile, "that's not true. The seventh Prince is still young. He has not been trained since he was a child. His ability may not be enough, but his heart can be polished. Qi Mingzhang will try his best to live for this little prince."
Qi Youju will not be killed or assigned. He will only stay in the palace and continue to fight with the emperor. Qi Mingzhang also needs this son to paralyze the outside world and let everyone know that he is still ready to make Qi Youju the crown prince.
"Oh, by the way, I'm outside and see your pigeon," Chu Zhan nodded, didn't ask any more, and pointed out the yard.
