Chapter 363: The world is full of twists and turns
"That's it." Concubine De smiled very naturally, "A few days ago, I suddenly discovered that the emperor's body was getting healthier and his spirit was getting better and better. Then I thought that the emperor had not taken medicine for a long time, and then suddenly Thinking about this... the more I think about it, the more frightened I become. I always fall asleep well in the middle of the night, which is why I often feel chest tightness recently. "
Emperor Wen raised his hand to withdraw from the palace, ordered Concubine De to undress him, and lay down directly on her bed: "There are too many things going on in the palace these two days, and I care less about you, so I didn't notice anything unusual about you. It was my negligence.”
Concubine De adjusted her mentality and smiled gently: "The emperor's health is my greatest wish, and everything else is important."
Is 놊 heavy 놚?
Emperor Wen's eyes darkened slightly, and he felt a little softer when he thought that Concubine De was also an old concubine of Qiandi. She had served him for so many years and was the only remaining concubine in the deposed prince's palace.
"Concubine De." Emperor Wen motioned her to lie down on the bed, patted her hand, and comforted her gently, "I know you are happy in your heart, but as the emperor, I also have a lot of helplessness."
Concubine De lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyes: "As long as everything is well with the Emperor, I am not happy at all."
Emperor Wen asked if he could agree: "I'll tell you what's on my mind tonight."
Concubine De's heart sank slightly, she uttered a word and leaned against him.
"I hope that these brothers and Yan Li can live in harmony." Emperor Wen said with a hint of helplessness in his tone, "You can be completely sincere, but don't break up or turn against each other. The heirs of my generation are in decline. If there are too many, my sons will only be their brothers and sisters. If there are two less, I will be a little unbearable. "
"Your Majesty is a kindhearted relative, and it is human nature to care about your children." Concubine De narrowed her eyes and spoke in a warm voice, "Don't worry Your Majesty, they will definitely be friendly as brothers and sisters, or turn against each other."
"The appointment of Yan Li as the regent is not entirely because she is the queen's legitimate daughter, but the current situation in the Jin Kingdom really needs a courageous person to implement reforms." Emperor Wen closed his eyes and said, "I was the crown prince back then. Although he failed, after he ascended the throne, the emperor also performed some duties. "
He has experienced a lot in his life. The events of those years almost killed him and left him physically and mentally exhausted. In the following years, he was busy clearing away the differences and stabilizing the throne.
The hardships in his youth had already worn away his high spirits. After sitting on the throne, he seemed to have lost the courage he had when he was young. After the queen came to power, it was another process of winning over people's hearts and consolidating her power.
They were aware of the long-standing shortcomings of the Jin State over the years, but when they realized that there were various problems in the Jin State, they had become helpless and unable to do what they wanted.
Emperor Wen closed his eyes: "If I could sum up my life in four words, it would be nothing but mediocrity."
"Your Majesty, don't say that." Concubine De's heart became sour as she thought of the hardships in those years, "The world is full of twists and turns, and no one can go against fate."
Emperor Wen was silent for a moment and hummed softly: "It's early, go to sleep."
Concubine De asked: "Is Your Majesty going to the Queen's sister?"
"You're already here, why are you going?" Emperor Wen held her in his arms, "I hope you are all well, so that I can feel at ease."
Concubine De lay beside her, uttering a word and looking at the carved and painted bedroom.
Are they all fine?
How many people living in the palace would just settle for "good things"? What they think about is power, and their eyes are on the throne. Who will give up if they fight until the last moment?
The supreme status, the power of life and death, the ultimate wealth, the three palaces, the beauty in the arms...
Who can resist such temptation?
…
In the next few days, Yan Li seemed to have suddenly become free. He took Mucang around every day, and Chu 뀖 actually rushed directly from the Imperial City to Yanling.
The Kang family is still the same Kang family, but the people inside are no longer the same people as before.
Except for Kang Ziyan, who has taken over as the head of the family, all the other familiar faces have been seen. The number of guards and servants coming and going does not seem to be many, but is increasing.
After arriving at Kang's house, the door guard went to announce that Kang Ziyan came to greet him with a great courtesy and invited Yan Lihe to the front hall for tea. Tianlai Novel Network
"Is your Highness satisfied with the Ling Feng sent by your Majesty to the Eldest Princess?" Kang Ziyan stood in the hall wearing a white shirt. When he spoke, he bowed slightly and lowered his eyes with absolute respect, "His skills are wrong. His appearance is wrong, and I have arranged for him to be with Her Royal Highness to facilitate the delivery of news at any time. If the Eldest Princess orders it, I can also order him to pass it on to me, and I will do my best to serve Her Royal Highness."
Yan Li believed that what he said was sincere, at least for now, it was absolutely sincere.
Her eyes fell on Kang Ziyan's legs: "Is it clear?"
"Yes." Kang Ziyan nodded, "The miraculous doctor has superb medical skills, but he completely ignored this symptom. I admire him very much and am extremely grateful to him."
Yan Li hummed: "If you can walk by yourself, then sit down."
"Thank you very much, Her Royal Highness the Princess." Kang Ziyan sat down on a chair beside him, straight and upright, "I gave the genius doctor money to the young master, but he said that he came here on the order of the Royal Highness the Princess. The money should be given to the eldest princess, so I have prepared some small gifts and plan to send them to the capital on the occasion of His Highness’s birthday.”
Yan Li smiled faintly: "Don't keep it in mind. We both get what we need from this matter. I'll have someone heal your legs and let you be the head of the Kang family. You will be loyal to me in the future and make the people of Yanling live a better life. That's enough."
"Yes."
"At least in your lifetime, the things that the Kang family did before may not happen again." Yan Li's tone was slightly heavy, and there was a bit more deterrence in his voice, "Otherwise you should know that if I can punish your brother today, I can also punish you tomorrow."
Kang Ziyan stood up: "Please rest assured, Princess, as long as I live, I will never let the evil deeds of the Kang family happen again."
"I believe you."
Mu Cang sat aside and never said a word.
He came here just to relax with Yan Li, and Yan Li was not in charge of the affairs of Jin.
"Princess, please stay for dinner." Kangzi spoke gently, "I have ordered people to prepare a family dinner to entertain Your Highness."
"No." Yan Li shook her head and put down the teacup, "I'm here with my husband to take a look around and see the scenery. We can go to the restaurant for dinner. I'm sorry to have delayed your time."
"Yes."
Yan Li stood up and left Kang's house with Mu Cang.
In the next few days, Yan Li and Mu Cang walked around Yanling casually. The two of them rode fast, as if they were visiting incognito. They would go to the bustling Changjie and the deserted and lonely remote villages.
The customs of Yanling have improved greatly compared to two months ago, but it is still impossible to avoid occasional disputes, such as quarrels in the villagers' homes and conflicts between neighbors.
But these are minor problems, and she just saw another kind of simple folk customs.
