With the arrival of winter, the weather is getting colder and colder. Even the evergreen Dongwan palace inner center has fallen a heavy snow and suddenly cooled down.

The branches were covered with snow, as if wrapped in a mass of snow-white cotton. The vision was vast, and even the air was cold to the bone. Several palace maids cleaned the snow in front of the court. Without saying a word, they glanced at the figure in front of the hall from time to time. Then they carefully bowed their heads and continued to be busy.

The figure standing in front of the hall is naturally queen Wei, the owner of Fengwu palace.

Gently holding the cloak on her shoulders, empress Wei Emei frowned and looked into the distance as if she wanted to see something.

She's worried.

Since emperor Dongwan fell ill, the imperial doctors were helpless. No matter how much medicine they took, it was useless. Empress Wei was worried. She understood the cause of Dongwan emperor, but it was a heart disease. She had no choice but to worry.

Anxious, a man appeared in the field of vision. She was tall and tall and walked briskly. Although she could not see her face clearly from too far away, Queen Wei recognized her sky blue dress and graceful demeanor. Her eyes lit up and couldn't help waving: "emperor, Yuqi!"

"Mother!" From a distance, Xiao Yuqi saw queen Wei standing at the door of the hall and quickened her pace.

Hurried closer, Xiao Yuqi saluted queen Wei and said respectfully, "it's snowing just now. Why are you standing here after such a cold Heavenly Mother? Go in and warm up."

With that, he helped queen Wei walk in, looking rather worried.

Seeing Xiao Yuqi coming, Queen Wei was relieved and asked him if he was busy with government affairs. Recently, she worked in state affairs instead of his father and emperor, but there were thorns and so on. Xiao Yuqi answered one by one. He was very patient. At last, empress Wei relaxed her sad face and smiled.

"Thanks to you, Yuqi, otherwise your father will be in trouble these days." Empress Wei breathed a sigh of relief, and a touch of darkness flashed across her dignified and gentle face, "but your father... Yuqi, tell your mother what you think."

Empress Wei asked mindlessly, but Xiao Yuqi understood what she was worried about.

This is also the reason why he and Dongwan emperor parted unhappily the day before yesterday!

Dongwan emperor has been ill for more than half a month. The imperial doctor said that his majesty is in fact in good health. It is because he is worried and under too much pressure that he can't get up. This is a heart disease. As long as Dongwan emperor can't figure it out and is in a bad mood, even if they find a fairy medicine, they can't cure it!

On that day, Xiao Yuqi still remembered what emperor Dongwan said, and even the expression of emperor Dongwan clearly. However, after thinking about it for so long, he still couldn't make up his mind, so that he put it off until now.

Kill Nalan night and Luo qingluan?

Even if you think about it, Xiao Yuqi can't do it. He can't do it. He can't be cruel!

In fact, he has no friendship with Nalan night, but he has been attracted to his name for a long time. He met several times in a hurry last time, and Nalan night left a deep impression on him. Whether it's his outstanding appearance, or his admirable momentum, or his overbearing and decisive attitude and thunderous iron and blood means, Xiao Yuqi is led to heaven and man.

Even though Xiao Yuqi thinks highly of himself, he doesn't want to be the enemy of an opponent like Nalan night.

What's more, once he is against Nalan night, Luo qingluan, who is regarded as his confidant, is bound to be hostile to him. No matter what the result is, it is not what Xiao Yuqi wants to see. Once the two sides go to war and are hostile, the consequences are unimaginable.

"Empress mother, you can't be too hasty about the Western Chu, let alone openly hostile. The father is too anxious, so..." Xiao Yuqi sighed and showed a few sad faces: "moreover, in the final analysis, this matter was not provoked by the king of Chu. The father vented his anger on the king of Chu and them, which is really..."

"Alas... Yuqi, your father is the emperor after all. How can you lose face?" Empress Wei felt so deeply and shook her head.

Although imperial concubine Li has been executed, and even the whole Li family has been accused of copying their families, countless Royal relatives and relatives have been implicated. So far, I have a lingering fear when I think about it. But empress Wei also felt that emperor Dongwan still didn't calm down. He even blamed the king and Princess of Chu who triggered the incident, but didn't consider it at all. If it wasn't for Princess Li's misbehavior, this was the root of the matter.

Dongwan emperor lost face and was also known by important figures in the opposite country. In his opinion, as long as Nalan night and Luo qingluan live one day, they will prove his scandal one day. Only when the king and Princess of Chu are dead, even... Emperor Dongwan wants to kill everyone who knows about it, will he completely forget it.

"But the empress mother knew that the father's move was wrong, and her children's ministers were even more reluctant." This is also where Xiao Yuqi's head hurts.

Empress Wei has also considered this matter for a long time. Although the harem is not allowed to intervene in politics, this is a major event. Emperor Dongwan is seriously ill now and doesn't know the consequences. If she really falls ill and the crown prince is her only son, how can she not help worry?

Looking at Xiao Yuqi deeply, empress Wei said earnestly: "although your father's move is wrong, on the other hand, it is also for the future of Dongwan. Yuqi, think about it, now that the Western Chu annexed North Vietnam, the southern Wei Dynasty is in danger. In five or ten years, I'm afraid that the Western Chu really surpasses Dongwan. At that time, we may follow the footsteps of North Vietnam."

"But the empress mother, the king of Chu and the princess of Chu..."

Empress Wei interrupted Xiao Yuqi's words: "my mother knows that you have a friendship with Princess Chu and can't bear to lay hands on her. As for the king of Chu, my mother has seen it with her own eyes. It's really unusual. Tianzong wizards! But Yuqi, you've been in charge of the country now. Maybe you'll ascend the throne soon. You have to take the overall situation into account and consider the future of the whole Dongwan."

"And more importantly, even if the king of Chu doesn't want Dongwan to be the emperor in the face of the princess of Chu, but... What about the emperor of Western Chu? Will he listen to the princess of Chu? Will the princess of Chu interfere in the government? If the emperor of Western Chu insists on invading Dongwan, the king of Chu, as a minister, has to fight. When the army comes, will you watch the people of Dongwan die?"

"You are the future emperor of Dongwan. Think about it for your subjects!"

The last sentence was like a blow to Xiao Yuqi's head.

Think for the future of Dongwan and for his subjects! As the future emperor of Dongwan, does he really have to worry about a lot, fear hands and feet, and think so thoroughly? There are no two things in the world, personal friendship and responsibility. He can only choose one.

After leaving Fengwu palace, Xiao Yuqi thought for a long time and finally went to the bedroom of Dongwan emperor.

In the dark of night, a group of eunuchs and maids guarding the dormitory saw Xiao Yuqi coming and saluted quickly. Xiao Yuqi waved them back and walked in front of the bed.

The white fish scabbard scale gauze curtain hung down to cover the body of the Dongwan emperor on the bed. The windows in the hall were closed, and the stove was burning vigorously, so I didn't feel the cold at all. But looking at the pale and old face of the emperor Dongwan, Xiao Yuqi couldn't help but feel dejected.

"Father..."

It seemed that he heard a sound. The eyelids of the emperor Dongwan moved and slowly opened for a long time.

I couldn't see the vitality of the past. Those dragon eyes were turbid and spiritless. I moved my lips, but there was no sound. After only looking at him, Emperor Dongwan turned his head and closed his eyes without saying a word.

"Father, my son came to see you. There's another thing I want to tell my father..."

Looking at the East Wan emperor's look, Xiao Yuqi's only hesitation disappeared. He said softly but like an oath: "my son's minister has decided to consider these days. Since my father is worried about the future of East Wan, he naturally wants to share his worries for my father."

"The father doesn't have to worry about the king of Chu. His ministers will only deal with it."

It seemed as if a light burst out in his eyes. Dongwan emperor suddenly turned his head and stared at Xiao Yuqi. He seemed to react. Looking at Xiao Yuqi's affirmation, Dongwan emperor jumped up and sat up. He lifted the gauze curtain and clasped his hand. He lost his voice excitedly and said, "seriously?"

"The Western Chu is powerful. It must be Dongwan's opponent in the future. How can my son minister watch Dongwan's rivers and mountains be buried in my son's hands?" Xiao Yuqi looked cold and said word by word, "please recover as soon as possible. My son and minister will help my father and make a good plan."

Dongwan emperor listened for a moment, the wrinkles between his eyebrows stretched inch by inch, and finally looked up to the sky and laughed: "ha ha..."

The depression was swept away, and the fear repressed in my heart finally disappeared completely at the moment Xiao Yuqi promised.

Father and son connect heart, its profit breaks gold!

Coupled with the relationship between Xiao Yuqi and Luo qingluan, if it is used, I'm afraid it will be a wonderful chess in the future!

……

Since he lived in Suiyuan, long Kai has been smooth sailing.

His daughter LONGNING successfully flattered the Empress Dowager and became the imperial concubine of the Western Chu emperor. He was granted by Marquis Wei Wu. Once the fish leaped to the dragon's gate, his father and daughter were expensive, and he completely ranked among the upper class giants and dignitaries of the Western Chu Dynasty.

Every day, there were a large pile of worship posts. Those who invited him to the house for dinner, and many dignitaries came to see him and offered valuable gifts. They just wanted to make friends with him and get familiar with him.

Although long Kai is arrogant, he also knows what's going on with these people. He just thinks about his identity as martial uncle of the king of Chu and his daughter as a concubine. How can he not flatter him? On the surface, long Kai was also polite to these people and talked happily, but privately he despised them and had a lot of stomach Fei.

Don't you just want to use him? He's not so stupid!

"Marquis, this is the worship post received so far yesterday. Please have a look." Li Weida, the new housekeeper, walked into the study respectfully holding a pile of worship posts.

Although he was holding a book in his hand, long Kai didn't see it at all. His mind was full of imagination. He smelled that he put down the book. As soon as he turned around and saw so many posts, he became impatient.

"Don't bring in anything important in the future." He murmured.

When he first received these invitations, long Kai kept the appointment in high spirits and even felt elated about it. But as soon as the number of times increased and others obviously flattered, he became used to it and began to feel impatient.

He is the martial uncle of the king of Chu, the father of imperial concubine Yao, or the powerful Marquis granted by his majesty. In fact, can ordinary people compare him? Invite him to dinner and wine? It also depends on whether he is in a good mood and whether he is free to talk about it!

After a meal, Li Weida hurriedly said, "yes, marquis."

Just as he was about to retire, he suddenly remembered something. He took something out of his arms and said cautiously: "Lord, this is what I received yesterday, but there was no name on the invitation, just..."

"Just what?"

Long KaiDun felt unhappy and handed over his worship post without leaving his name. Isn't it clear that he despised him?

Li Weida said carefully: "the little one thought it was a mess and wanted to deal with it for the Lord. Unexpectedly, when the little one opened it, the letter was... But Prince Dongwan sent someone to write and pointed out that he had sent an envoy to see the Lord."

"What?" Long Kai's eyes stared and was surprised!
