The emperor was so confused by the illusion in front of him that he not only left all the affairs in the palace to Zhou Ruiyuan, but also temporarily put aside the affairs of Aunt Zhou and the third prince.
But every night he would wake up suddenly. In his dream, he would see their family of three enjoying themselves, and his heart would twist like a knife.
He sat up in shock, thinking only about how to cut the two of them into pieces.
But when he saw Xiao Mianmian in the early morning of the next day, the resentment in his heart immediately dissipated, as if his current life was not bad. ?.?????.???
Coupled with Doctor Xu's instructions, he immediately gave up his murderous intention and took Xiao Mianmian around the capital.
Repeatedly like this, the effect of the medicine on the emperor gradually dissipated.
The Third Prince and Aunt Zhou also arrived in the capital smoothly.
The two of them pretended to be traders passing by and found a remote small courtyard to stay.
After a bumpy journey, the two finally found a place to stay.
Zhou Feng and Han Yaner did not dare to come to see them directly, so they secretly sent their confidants to give them something.
Soon the emperor fell ill again, this time his condition was several times more serious than before.
He vomited black blood and fell on the couch. His face was pale and his breathing was weak.
The doctors at the Imperial Hospital were all at a loss what to do, and finally they invited Dr. Xu over.
After Doctor Xu diagnosed the emperor's pulse, he truthfully informed him of his condition, "Your Majesty, your time has come and there is nothing the common people can do."
The emperor was so sick that he couldn't say a word. He could only stretch out his trembling hands and tried to grab Dr. Xu. He made a hissing sound in his throat and wanted to ask him for medicine.
Doctor Xu shook his head, he really couldn't help it.
Du Wanchun's medicine has allowed him to live for a few more days.
Who has allowed him to have fun all these years, not to mention getting sick, and even emptying his body? Now even if the Great Luo God comes, he can't save it.
Doctor Xu bowed and slowly stepped back.
Zhou Ruiyuan strode over and squatted beside the emperor, his eyes filled with complicated emotions, and he didn't speak for a long time.
As the emperor became seriously ill, all affairs in the court naturally fell under the control of the prince Zhou Ruiyuan.
The emperor was so confused by their family that he had no defense against him.
Now that he is ill, even his own palace is Zhou Ruiyuan's people.
Zhou Ruiyuan withdrew his gaze and said in a calm tone with indifference, "Father, you are not in good health now, so don't worry about other things. Don't worry, your son and minister will make arrangements. You just need to take good care of your health."
He raised him for more than ten years, and he took care of him until he died, as if everything was reasonable.
The emperor suddenly became excited when he looked at him, and wanted to reach out and pull him, but unfortunately, he no longer had the strength to fight with his son.
He lay on the bed coughing violently, breathing heavily.
Zhou Ruiyuan patted his back and said, "Father, be careful. This anger will aggravate the condition."
The emperor lay on the bed and looked at him fiercely.
Even at this moment, the emperor has not truly regretted his mistakes, whether he was looking for the four of them, mother and son, or now.
He has neither.
He is the emperor and the king of a country. He can have many, many children. Even if Zhou Ruiyuan is not there, there are other princes.
He can also have many women, and if the queen is gone, he can have another one.
However, after so many years of busy work, he seems to have nothing now.
However, the sadness in his heart was always no match for his selfishness. The emperor lying on the bed was actually thinking at this moment, if he had known this, it would be better to give him a glass of poisonous wine when he deposed Zhou Ruiyuan, and nothing would happen. .
Zhou Ruiyuan originally thought of him as a father and son, but when he saw his vicious eyes, his heart instantly dropped.
He sat alone beside the emperor for a long time, then stood up and left lonely.
The emperor looked at his back, his throat roared, and even if he wanted to curse, he couldn't even curse him out.
As the emperor became seriously ill and Zhou Ruiyuan gradually came to power, those in the court who had murdered the Lu family were all in panic.
Zhou Ruiyuan urgently recalled the third prince to the palace on the grounds that the emperor was seriously ill.
Aunt Zhou returned with the third prince as the third princess.
As for the queen, she is already dead and died on the road to exile.
With this imperial edict, Aunt Zhou finally entered the palace with the third prince in a grand manner, but her identity had changed drastically. She was the princess surnamed Zhou that the third prince married when he went south.
Du Wanchun sent a palace maid to take them to the East Palace first.
She knew that Aunt Zhou must miss Xiao Zhouzhou very much.
Aunt Zhou started from the small carriage and trotted all the way. Looking at the familiar scenes in the palace, she felt as if she had lived in another world for a moment.
She strode into the courtyard of Du Wanchun's palace and saw her daughter playing with Xiao Feifei, tears streaming down her face.
