Chapter 1070: There is another secret
I was quite surprised that Emperor Zhengming wanted to summon me, although I now have a lot of official identities, such as the top ten young people in Liangchuan City, and I was nominated by the prince and named a baron, but I am still a gangster in my bones, and I still have a little inferiority complex in my bones.
Hou Yibai's son Hou Junjue is the prince's right-hand man and the prince's most loyal supporter, so it can be seen from this point that Hou Yibai is actually more optimistic about the prince.
In fact, Hou Yibai also helped the crown prince say a lot of good things in front of Emperor Zhengming.
Hou Yibai talked to me all the way, his attitude was more cordial, and he did not put on the first celebrity in front of Emperor Zhengming at all.
It can be said that no one in the entire Dayan dares to pose in front of Hou Yibai, even the high-ranking Prince Yong, his attitude towards me is also an honor for me, and from another point of view, I can also see some of the attitude of Emperor Zhengming towards me.
When he arrived at the building where the prince was, all the passages were guarded by the people of the Shenwei Battalion, and the patients on the first floor where the prince's ward was located were all transferred to other floors because of the arrival of Emperor Zhengming, and the entire floor was under the supervision of the Shenwei Battalion, and no one was allowed to enter and leave at will.
Although Dayan's imperial power has been weakened, the emperor is still the head of state, so with the arrival of Emperor Zhengming, the security work has been done very strictly.
When I arrived at the floor where the prince was, I saw at a glance the guards of the Shenwei Battalion in the corridor, three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry, they were all equipped with guns, their eyes did not squint, their heads were raised and their chests were high, and they were full of energy, giving people a sense of majesty.
Most of the members of the royal family also sat in the aisle and chatted because the prince could not visit now, including Murong Qing, Murong Hang, Murong Qi, Murong Siqi, etc., as well as Prince Yong's Mansion, Prince Rui's Mansion and others.
Murong Ziyan also followed to Suizhou Island, the moment I appeared, her eyes first appeared with surprise, and then when she saw my legs, she became worried again.
Murong Siqi, Murong Qing and others are more familiar with me, but they smile and signal.
I followed Hou Yibai straight through the middle aisle, without stopping to talk to them, and then came to a hospital room, guarded by four guards from the Kamui Battalion.
Hou Yibai stopped, turned back to me and said, "The Holy One is inside." ”
I said, "There is a pass from Lord Lao. ”
Hou Yibai knocked lightly on the door and shouted inside: "Holy Lord, Lord Mo is here." ”
"Let him in!"
There was a voice from inside, but it looked a little old and weak, and it seemed that Emperor Zhengming's health was also very bad.
Hou Yibai immediately pushed open the door and said to me, "Lord Mo, please come in." ”
I immediately walked to the door and looked inside, there was a doctor inside who was doing medical treatment for Emperor Zhengming, the queen was on the side, and there were a few nurses next to him to help, and Emperor Zhengming on the hospital bed looked completely old, compared to the last time I went to Zhongjing to be enthroned, he looked much older, as if he was more than ten years old.
At this time, he was completely a terminally ill old man, if he did not have the identity of the emperor, walking on the street would be no different from an ordinary old man, and even I found it hard to believe that he was the majestic emperor often seen in news reports.
When I walked into the ward, I didn't dare to speak loudly, and I saw Emperor Zhengming and Empress in a whisper.
Emperor Zhengming waved his hand and motioned for the empress and the doctors and nurses to withdraw, leaving only me and Emperor Zhengming in the entire room.
I don't know why, I suddenly remembered the eighth master, the last time I saw the eighth master, he was also lying on the hospital bed, and he was the same old man, and I suddenly felt inexplicably sad in my heart.
No matter how beautiful a person is, it is actually the same when he is old, and he cannot escape the shackles of fate.
Emperor Zhengming beckoned to me and motioned for me to come over and speak.
I walked to the bedside and couldn't help but ask, "Holy Lord, is it okay with your body?" ”
Originally, I may not be suitable to ask, after all, I have only met him once before, and this is the second time, so the relationship is not close.
Emperor Zhengming looked at me and smiled, and said, "When people are old, it is inevitable that they will not be tortured by illness, and they cannot avoid it." After a pause, he said, "I called you here today to ask you about the prince." ”
I said, "The Marquis has always followed His Highness, and he knows many things better than me. ”
Emperor Zhengming said: "He is too close to the crown prince, and many words are not honest, so I plan to ask you, will you lie to me." ”
I hurriedly said: "How dare I lie to the Holy One, the Holy One asks me, and I will answer honestly." ”
Emperor Zhengming said: "Recently, there have been a series of accidents in the Supreme Casino, and now the prince has been attacked again, is there any connection between this?" ”
I groaned in my heart, should I tell the truth? After thinking about it, he said: "As far as I know, the gangsters who ransacked the Supreme Casino have not been found, the casino fire may be an accident, or it may be man-made, the murderer who assassinated the prince has died in the suburbs today, and it is very unlikely that the mastermind will be found." I wonder if there's any connection, but there's no way to know for sure. ”
Emperor Zhengming frowned when he heard my words, as if he was thinking about something, and after a while, he waved his hand and said, "You can go out." ”
I immediately respectfully retired, out of the ward, but my heart was extremely puzzled, Emperor Zhengming called me to ask only one word, and then did not talk about anything, what is the deep meaning?
Could it be that Emperor Zhengming thought of something?
While thinking about it, I suddenly felt like I had grasped something in my heart, but it was fleeting, and then I had to think about it carefully, but I couldn't grasp it anymore.
What did Emperor Zhengming think? Is there a hidden story behind these three incidents?
After I came out, the queen and the doctor went in to take care of Emperor Zhengming again, but the members of the royal family looked at me in surprise, I didn't expect Emperor Zhengming to summon me alone, and several princes were even more puzzled, I am the crown prince, Emperor Zhengming summoned me, whether there is another deep meaning.
I then walked over, greeted the members of the royal family, and then went back to my hospital room.
When I walked to the top of the stairs, Murong Ziyan followed, and Lao Yuan called out to me from behind: "Brother Kun, wait!" ”
I stopped and looked back, Murong Ziyan trotted up and immediately asked, "Why did you come along?" ”
Murong Ziyan looked at my injured leg and said, "Your leg is okay." ”
I said, "I was a little bit injured some time ago, but now I'm much better and it's fine." ”
Murong Ziyan said, "It's inconvenient for you to walk, Brother Kun, I'll help you." ”
I looked back, hesitated, and the members of the royal family were all looking at it and said, "Not very well." ”
Murong Ziyan said: "What's wrong, we are friends, you can't walk conveniently, shouldn't I help you?" As he spoke, he leaned over and grabbed my wrist.
Smelling the faint fragrance coming from her body, and seeing her pure and pretty face, I felt a kind of happiness.
What is happiness? Happiness is that no matter when and where, there is such a little girl who cares about me.
If I can really live with her for the rest of my life, it will definitely be very good.
"Ziyan, has your birthday passed?"
I suddenly remembered something and asked.
When Murong Ziyan heard my words, he said angrily: "Brother Kun, you are embarrassed to ask, you don't know that my birthday has passed, at the beginning of the year, you also promised me that you will help me celebrate my birthday this year, fortunately I didn't take it seriously, otherwise I would definitely die of disappointment." ”
I smiled awkwardly when I heard Murong Ziyan's words, and said, "There have been too many things recently, I forgot, when will you go back to Suizhou Island this time, or I will help you make up for it on Suizhou Island?" ”
Murong Ziyan thought for a while and said with a smile: "It's okay if you know each other, um, but to make up for the birthday, there can only be two of us." ”
I looked at Murong Ziyan, my heart moved again, I wanted to hold her in my arms, nodded, and said, "Okay, just the two of us." ”
Murong Ziyan smiled when she heard my words.
She was easily satisfied, but the more I felt guilty the more I owed her.
Back in the ward, Murong Ziyan went back, Shi Zhao and the others entered the ward, closed the door, and asked me what Emperor Zhengming asked me to do?
I told Shi Zhao and the others that Emperor Zhengming only asked me one word, and then he didn't say anything.
I only asked, Emperor Zhengming must have thought of something, but I haven't thought of it yet.
