"I did go into the palace to see the emperor, and I also interceded with the emperor on Han Du's behalf. But as you can see, it was of no use. The emperor still had no intention of changing his will." After finishing speaking, Tang Ding looked puzzled. , Tang He couldn't help but talk to him, "Do you think Han Du has no hope anymore?"
"Isn't it?" Tang Ding smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "Even if you go to persuade the emperor to change his mind, you will end up under house arrest. I really can't imagine what kind of change Han Du will have in this matter. .”
Tang He suddenly chuckled when he heard this and said, "You still lack experience and are easily blinded by the appearance of things."
"What? Is there really any improvement in this matter?" Tang Ding was overjoyed.
Tang He looked into the void and said to himself: "I'm not sure, but I always feel that there is something wrong with this matter. The timing of the wedding was too sudden. There weren’t even any signs before.”
"Logically speaking, a princess's wedding is not a small matter. It is impossible that there is not even a little bit of news before the superiors make the decree. This matter is really strange."
"Yes, yes, that's it. Doesn't it seem like there is still hope for Han Du?" Tang Ding was naturally happy for Han Du when he heard that this matter had turned around.
But Tang He poured cold water on him, "Don't be too happy too early. Only the superiors know the inside story of this matter. I am just guessing. Even if it is like what I guessed, this matter is not without variables. If If Han Du handles it properly, he will naturally have a prosperous future. If he handles it improperly, there will be no future."
So dangerous?
Tang Ding couldn't help but worry when he saw his father's solemn words. After hesitating for a moment, he said: "Then should we inform Han Du and let him deal with it carefully?"
Tang He glanced at his son and said with a smile: "You think you can think of something that the emperor would not think of? Why did the emperor put me under house arrest? Do you think you really want me to study? Are you just afraid that I will find out the inside story? , ran to inform Han Du."
"And this matter is just my guess. If I guess correctly, the tip will be of benefit to Han Du. But if I guess wrong, wouldn't it be self-defeating and end up harming him in the end?"
After Tang Ding finished listening, he sighed. It's really hard to remind Han Du about this matter. If the reminder is right, then everyone will be happy. If the reminder is wrong, wouldn't it just trick him?
Seeing that his son understood the key, Tang He said softly: "When manpower is exhausted, many times we can only do our best and listen to fate. Don't worry about Han Du, so as not to backfire. Since the emperor wants Whatever he is planning, only Han Du has to face this matter by himself, and no one can help him."
After hearing this, Tang Ding nodded seriously to express his understanding.
In the past, Tang Ding didn't know why his father, who was so talented, would always maintain respect for the emperor. Now Tang Ding was able to taste some of the flavor, and the forerunner had the opportunity to take precautions in advance. From this alone, Tang Ding could glimpse the tip of the iceberg of the Emperor's majestic talents.
...
In the royal study, the old eunuch came in to report.
"Your Majesty, I'm waiting to see you in Yongchang."
After hearing this, Lao Zhu suddenly raised his head and sneered: "Oh, they really don't stop at all."
The old eunuch lowered his head and said nothing, not even daring to look at the emperor's current appearance.
"I made a decree, and everyone came to try to change my mind. What are you trying to do? Are you turning a deaf ear to my decree? Just change it if you ask for it? Pass the decree and order Lan Yu to study behind closed doors. There is no decree from me. , you are not allowed to take a step outside the Yongchang Marquis Mansion."
"According to the order." The old eunuch hurriedly went out to deliver the order.
But before he could go out, the emperor stopped him again.
"etc."
"Please give me your instructions, Your Majesty."
There was some hesitation on Lao Zhu's face, and he slowly asked: "Is the imperial doctor back? How is Han Du doing now?"
"Your Majesty, I'm back. I heard from the imperial doctor that Han Du fainted due to excessive convulsions. The imperial doctor used acupuncture to wake him up. He just needs to rest for a while and take a few medicines and he will be fine."
"Really? That's good." Hearing this, Lao Zhu smiled again.
The old eunuch glanced at the emperor for no apparent reason and did not dare to look again. He really couldn't figure out what kind of situation this was.
Logically speaking, since the emperor is unwilling to marry Princess Anqing to Han Du, he naturally dislikes Han Du. But now she is very concerned about Han Du's condition, and seems to like Han Du very much.
This repeated contrast made the old eunuch confused for a while, wondering what the emperor meant by this. But he didn't need to understand, he just needed to do what the emperor ordered.
...
After Han Du woke up, he lay on the bed without saying a word and allowed an old doctor to diagnose him.
It wasn't until the old doctor left and Han Jingyun came back that Han Du turned to look at the girl and asked softly: "Didn't you go in?"
Han Jingyun nodded and said: "I was stopped outside the Chengtian Gate. Even the empress's jade token can't get in."
"As expected." Han Du sneered.
Han Jingyun moved his lips, hesitated, and finally decided to tell his eldest brother, and said softly: "Not only that, I also heard outside Chengtian Gate. Tang He, the Duke of Xin State, went to the palace to ask for an audience with the emperor, but he was grounded at home by the emperor. Just like me, Marquis Yongchang was also banned without even entering the Chengtian Gate."
Han Du heard that Tang He was grounded for interceding for him. Naturally, although he did not come to ask for help, he still did so, which moved Han Du's heart. As for Lan Yu, since he and Lan Yu became sworn brothers, Han Du has also discovered that this brother is indeed a bit domineering, but he has nothing to say about brotherhood. Han Du could really feel that Lan Yu really cared about his brother.
Although Tang and Lan Yu could rely on themselves, they were helpless when Lao Zhu intervened.
Sure enough, people must rely on themselves, and ultimately they can only rely on themselves.
After listening to the girl's words, Han Du said calmly: "I understand, thank you for your hard work, girl."
"I'm just running for nothing, it's not hard work." Han Jingyun shook his head softly, glanced at his eldest brother worriedly, and said, "Brother, you have to be more open-minded and take care of yourself."
"Don't worry, I won't do anything stupid." Han Du laughed.
Of course I won't be confused. Now that I understand that people must rely on themselves, what else can I be confused about?
