"If I don't blame you, who should I blame? You are the boss of such a large territory. Do you know that in the past two years, your uncle has spent ten hours just reviewing memorials. In addition to the time for eating and walking, he also spends more time sleeping every day. Less than an hour!”
When the eldest princess said this, she was already crying.
Now Liu Deng finally understood why the emperor suddenly fell ill so suddenly.
For two consecutive years, severe sleep deprivation, coupled with high-intensity mental work, this body is in trouble...
"Auntie, please don't cry yet. How is His Majesty's health?"
Liu Deng now realized the seriousness of the problem. To put it this way, this matter really had something to do with him, if it weren't for the fact that he had so rashly taken over the entire Hetao area.
The emperor is really not that bad, he is so tired from living...
With hundreds of thousands of Huns attached, coupled with the complicated affairs in Lingnan, and the constant provocations from the Qiang people in Longxi, the emperor's position is really a powder keg.
"After I fainted from a stroke, I can't even speak clearly..."
"What did the doctor say?"
"Your Majesty is sick due to overwork, so now even the imperial doctor dare not speak..."
When he heard the eldest princess's words, Liu Deng was completely confused.
Now he is really in trouble. Liu Rong is still the prince now. If the emperor dies like this, Liu Rong will naturally become the emperor.
What would the Han Dynasty look like without Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty...
But he soon realized, no, this piece of history must be put back.
Liu Che, this bastard, must be the emperor!
"Auntie, what do you think?"
Liu Deng took a deep breath, and then looked at the eldest princess again.
"I have been with His Majesty every day these past few days. Although His Majesty's mind has slowly begun to wake up, his body has never recovered. Now he can only rely on half a bowl of millet porridge every day..."
Half a bowl of millet porridge every day...
Hearing this amount of food, Liu Deng also smiled bitterly. How could a living person eat half a bowl of millet porridge every day...
"Aunt, there are only two of us here. My nephew wants to ask my aunt. If something happens to His Majesty, where will my aunt go?"
Liu Deng gritted his teeth and looked at the eldest princess seriously and asked.
"You, what do you mean..."
The eldest princess suddenly stiffened and stared at Liu Deng warily.
"Auntie, you don't have to look at me like that. I never had this intention. Your Majesty's body can't bear it, let alone my small body!"
Liu Deng knew from the eldest princess's expression that she must have misunderstood him, so he quickly expressed his attitude.
"I'm just a woman, what else can I think? Of course it's in accordance with His Majesty's wishes..."
"But aunt, let alone what His Majesty means, have you ever thought about what the Queen Mother means?"
As Liu Deng spoke, he glanced at the eldest princess meaningfully.
"What do you mean?"
The eldest princess's face changed immediately.
"What else could it mean? I just received news last night that Uncle Wang is now in Chang'an City..."
"Awu!"
The eldest princess screamed out loudly.
"Yes, so, aunt, what do you think?"
At this time, the eldest princess fell silent, and the whole room fell into a deathly silence again.
She really hadn't thought about this problem. After all, since the death of the late emperor, Liu Wu's whole temperament had changed drastically, and there was almost no trace of it before.
Therefore, she never thought from beginning to end that Liu Wu would quietly come to Beijing at this time.
But now that Liu Deng is so conclusive, it is obvious that he has received the news.
This matter was already complicated enough, but now that he had mixed it up like this, the inheritance of the throne suddenly became complicated and confusing again.
Liu Wu's current power is even worse than before.
Among the princes and kings in the world, except for Liu Deng, no one can compare with him.
Moreover, he is Liu Qi's biological brother, who is also the direct son of the late emperor. If he really takes advantage of the chaos at this time...
"What if we just follow the Queen Mother's wishes..."
After a long silence, the eldest princess suddenly whispered.
"What should Rong'er and the others do?"
Liu Deng sneered and asked.
"When Rong'er grows up, can't we let Awu return the throne to him?"
The eldest princess gritted her teeth and said stubbornly.
"Then what if Uncle Wang doesn't want to?"
"No! No! Awu will definitely return the throne to Rong'er!"
"Does Auntie know the story of Song Xuangong..."
Hearing what the eldest princess said, Liu Deng smiled bitterly and then said.
"Song Xuangong?"
"When Song Xuan Gong was seriously ill, he did not pass the throne to his young son, but to his own younger brother Gong Zihe, who later became Song Mu Gong!"
"Before his death, Duke Mugong of Song Dynasty was grateful for his brother's kindness and returned the throne to his brother's son. However, this caused dissatisfaction among his own sons. Since then, the Song Dynasty has experienced five consecutive generations of chaos, and its national power has declined and has been unable to recover..."
"Auntie, do you want this tragedy to happen again in the Han Dynasty..."
After Liu Deng finished speaking, the eldest princess's body began to tremble.
Indeed, she couldn't be sure even of Liu Wu's feelings, let alone Liu Wu's son.
Although the Han Dynasty seems to be in full bloom now, if the tragedy of the princes fighting for the throne really happens again, I am afraid that within a few years, the tragedy of the late Qin Dynasty will reappear in the world!
"Although the imperial court seems to be extremely powerful now, if the princes fight, if the barbarians invade, then we will be the sinners in the world!"
Liu Deng said bitterly.
Liu Deng, the sons of King Liang, has met all of them, and they are all ambitious people. If this breaks out, I'm afraid there will never be peace again...
"Then what do you think we should do?"
The eldest princess finally let out a long breath, she was really scared.
Especially Liu Deng's last sentence. If the world really returns to the late Qin Dynasty, how will she explain to Liu's ancestors...
"There is only one way now. Auntie must arrange for me to meet with His Majesty as soon as possible! Then, we will find a way to convince the Queen Mother!"
Forget about other things, at this time, we must let the emperor confirm Liu She's position as prince as soon as possible!
Liu She must be the emperor!
