Sun Kui: Your Majesty, who are you scolding?
"Your Majesty, please ask the imperial physician to take your pulse." Sun Kui said uneasily, "You have been so busy these days that you haven't had a good rest, so I'd better ask the imperial physician to take a look at you."
Emperor Wu of Zhou waved his hands and said, "I'm very well... sneeze..." Before he could finish his words, he sneezed again.
"Oh, Your Majesty, you have sneezed several times, how can you be okay?" Sun Kui was anxious and walked out of the imperial study directly and asked his apprentice Sun Doudou to ask for the imperial doctor.
Emperor Wu of Zhou rubbed his itchy nose and cursed: "Which turtle is scolding me?"
After a while, Dr. Feng came over.
When Emperor Wu of Zhou saw the doctor Feng coming, he scolded Sun Kui as "noisy" and then asked the doctor Feng to take his pulse.
Dr. Feng took Emperor Zhou Wu's pulse seriously and said immediately: "Your Majesty, you have been too tired recently. You should have a good rest. I will prescribe you some medicine to replenish your health."
Emperor Zhou Wu nodded lightly, and then waved his hand to signal Imperial Physician Feng to retreat.
"Your Majesty, my servant said that you have been too busy and tired during this period and should take a good rest. If you don't listen, you can see that you are as tired as a dragon now."
"Do you think I don't want to rest?" Emperor Zhou Wu said angrily, then put his feet on the royal table and sighed, "It would be great if eldest brother was here, I don't have to be such a bad emperor."
Sun Kui: Broken Emperor... Your Majesty, you really despise being an emperor...
"Alas...why do you think I am so tired every day?"
"Your Majesty, you are doing it for the people of the world." Although the Emperor always despised being an emperor, he did not slack off in government affairs because of this. On the contrary, the Emperor has been diligent in his duties since he ascended the throne.
"The old man won't live more than twenty years." The old man mentioned by Emperor Wu of Zhou was naturally the late emperor. "The old man has a few more years to live. The matters of approving memorials and handling state affairs are still mine. Why am I so miserable?" After Emperor Wu of Zhou was named crown prince, the late emperor often asked him to review memorials and handle state affairs.
It can be said that when Emperor Wu of Zhou was the crown prince, he was the "emperor".
The late emperor had the same virtues as Emperor Wu of Zhou, and he was not willing to be emperor. At the beginning, he was forced to rebel. He never thought that his team would get bigger and bigger, and he would fight more and more battles. He originally planned to take refuge with a wise master and become a general with peace of mind. Then when the world is at peace, he would take his wife and children back to his hometown to retire. However, he did not meet a wise master. Instead, he became the wise master in the eyes of the world. Finally, the late emperor was forced by a group of subordinates to establish the Great Zhou Dynasty and became emperor.
After becoming the emperor, the late emperor became the hands-off treasurer and handed over state affairs to Emperor Wu of Zhou, who was still the prince at the time. In fact, the late emperor's health was not very good at that time.
Before the late emperor established the Great Zhou Dynasty, he fought many battles, large and small, and he also suffered many injuries. He almost died several times. Fortunately, he was lucky and survived in the end. However, because of too many injuries, Moreover, he was poisoned and his foundation was damaged. As I get older, the sequelae of the injuries I suffered when I was young gradually become life-threatening.
In the fifth year of his accession to the throne, the late emperor died of illness.
The late emperor himself did not want to be emperor, and he also knew that his younger son had the same virtues as him and did not like to be emperor. Before he died, he repeatedly told his younger son to be a good emperor and not to cause chaos in the world again, let alone let the people live the miserable life they had before.
They became emperor not for themselves, but for the people.
It is worth sacrificing their family to protect the people of the world.
Fortunately, the ministers didn't know that neither the late emperor nor Emperor Wu of Zhou was willing to be emperor, otherwise they would probably be angry to death.
"Your Majesty, it wouldn't be good if the ministers heard you say this." Whenever the Emperor complained, he would say that he didn't want to be the Emperor.
"Alas..." Emperor Wu of Zhou had no choice but to become the emperor because he had too few brothers, and he was the only one left in the end. So after he ascended the throne, he worked hard to give birth to ten sons, so that he would not have to worry about the future. He had no son to inherit the throne. "No one understands my pain."
Sun Kui said silently in his heart: Your Majesty, your suffering is something that everyone in the world dreams of.
While he was talking, suddenly a man wearing a guard uniform walked in. This man looks very ordinary, the kind that would never be noticed in a crowd.
"I see you, Your Majesty."
Emperor Wu of Zhou raised his hand to him: "Get up."
The man in guard uniform stood up, took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Sun Kui.
Sun Kui took it with both hands, and immediately held the letter in both hands and brought it to Emperor Zhou Wu.
Emperor Zhou Wu took the letter, opened it, and raised his brows slightly in surprise.
"Why did Xiao Shi go to that house?"
The man in guard uniform said respectfully: "It was General Song and his son who took the Tenth Prince to that house."
"Lao Song's son?"
"Little son, they have been to that house before, but they have never been there again." The man in the guard uniform continued, "I don't know why they took the Tenth Prince to that house today."
"Xiao Shi knows Lao Song and his younger son?" Emperor Zhou Wu was very good at grasping the key points. "When did we know each other? Why didn't I know?"
"I met him at the night market in the West City last night..." The man in guard uniform reported to Emperor Zhou Wu about the competition between Zhao Yao and Song Jicai.
Sun Kui on the side was shocked when he heard that Zhao Yao was competing in archery.
His Royal Highness is so powerful? !
After hearing this, Emperor Wu of Zhou chuckled and said, "You bastard is hiding his secrets." Emperor Wu of Zhou was also a little surprised by his youngest son's archery skills.
"General Chu's youngest son is convinced of his defeat and is willing to be His Highness's younger brother." The man in the guard uniform said, "General Song and General Zhang's sons are also willing to be His Royal Highness's younger brother."
Emperor Wu of Zhou said with a smile: "The brat is pretty good. He has adopted the younger sons of Lao Song and others as his younger brothers. He is very like me in those days."
Sun Kui was surprised in his heart: Is this the same His Highness he knew?
"Afterwards, His Royal Highness took General Song and his sons to the Zhenxi Tower for dinner." The man in guard uniform continued to report, "After leaving the Zhenxi Tower, His Royal Highness and the others went to that house."
"Our people didn't come close to His Highness the Tenth Prince when they were eating, so we don't know what His Highness the Tenth Highness and the others said."
"The Tenth Highness wanted to go to that house. General Song and his sons stopped him, but the Tenth Highness insisted on going to see it. After that, the Tenth Highness asked his Tongxi to take him over the wall and enter the house."
"That brat is very courageous." That house was rumored to be a haunted house. No one dared to approach it even during the day, let alone at night. Xiao Shi, a brat, was not only unafraid, but also boldly climbed over the wall to enter. "What did the brat say to him?"
"That person ignored His Highness the Tenth at first, and then spoke to His Highness the Tenth." The man in the guard uniform told Emperor Zhou Wu exactly what Zhao Yao said to the middle-aged man.
"This brat talks a lot. He actually doesn't mind the brat being wordy." Emperor Zhou Wu said with a smile, "The brat is quite good at talking."
Sun Kui knew who Emperor Zhou Wu and the man in guard uniform were talking about. Sun Kui felt a turmoil in his heart when he learned that that person did not dislike His Highness Tenth's nagging and had not yet chased His Highness away.
When did that person change gender?
Every time the emperor went to see that person, that person never had a good look on the emperor and spoke sarcastically. No, that person looks cold to everyone.
Sometimes when the emperor goes over, that person doesn't say a word.
The person who met His Highness the Tenth Highness for the first time actually talked to the Tenth Highness. What was going on?
"His Royal Highness concealed his identity from that person and said that his parents were ordinary businessmen."
"He won't believe what the brat said, but he can't guess the identity of the brat for the time being." Emperor Zhou Wu said with a smile, "I originally planned to wait for that brat Xiao Shi to grow up and let him get to know him. I didn’t expect that brat to go and get to know him first, I really didn’t expect it.”
What?
The emperor had already thought about who His Highness should think of him? !
That person is not an ordinary person. Why would the Emperor let His Highness know that person? !
"It seems that brat Xiao Shi is destined to be with him." Without him having to make arrangements, Xiao Shi actually got to know him in advance. It was really... maybe this was destined.
"Your Majesty, what should we do next?" the man in guard uniform asked.
"No need to stop him, let that brat Xiao Shi continue to approach him."
"yes."
"Your Majesty, that person is so smart. When he saw that the tenth prince went to that house and the secret guard responsible for monitoring him did not take any action, that person would definitely be suspicious. Maybe it won't be long before that person guesses the identity of the tenth prince. "That man is the smartest man in the world, so smart that it scares people. "The one who guessed that His Highness is your youngest son may do something unfavorable to His Highness."
The Emperor knew that that person hated him deeply, but he still wanted His Highness to get to know him. Aren't the Emperor afraid that the one who hated Wujiwu would harm His Highness Ten?
That person is not only smart, but also has a volatile temperament and is ruthless. He will not let the Tenth Highness go for the sake of His Highness being a child.
Emperor Wu of Zhou said very firmly, "If it were anyone else, he would not let them go, but Xiao Shi, he would never hurt him!" If it were the other sons of Emperor Zhou Wu, that one would never let them go.
"Why is this?" Sun Kui looked confused. Is there anything special about His Highness? Could it be that because His Highness is cute, that person will let His Highness go? How is it possible? Anyone who has anything to do with the emperor will never let him go.
Emperor Wu of Zhou did not answer Sun Kui's question, but smiled meaningfully. He immediately ordered the man in guard uniform: "Keep staring at them."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Emperor Wu of Zhou waved his hand to the man in the car's bodyguard uniform, and the man in the bodyguard uniform stepped back respectfully.
"Your Majesty, do you really trust His Highness the Tenth Prince to approach that person?" Every time he went to that house and saw that person, he could not help but feel deep fear in his heart.
Emperor Wu of Zhou smiled and said, "Not only will he not hurt Xiao Shi, he will also be kind to Xiao Shi."
Sun Kui said in shock: "Is it good for His Highness the Tenth Prince?" This must be a fantasy. The one who would not hurt His Highness would be Amitabha. How could he be kind to His Highness, unless that person was possessed by evil spirits?
Guess what the middle-aged man is?
