Chapter 696: Reassure Him
Wei Youqing waved his hand and motioned for Lingzhu, who ran in after hearing the sound, to withdraw. He patted Tao Yao's shoulder comfortingly and helped her sit down again.
"Tao Yao, you're so smart, you probably guessed what I wanted to say, right?"
Li Taoyao trembled, and her lips kept moving. "Father, is there no way to cure my father's illness? You, aren't you a famous doctor? ”
"Your Majesty's illness is cured by me, and people's lifespan is limited, Taoyao, don't be too sad......" Seeing that Li Taoyao had already begun to whimper, Wei Youqing felt a little relieved.
The pain that can be cried out is the pain that can be healed. Li Chenghei has been ill for a long time, since Li Taoyao can remember, his father has not stopped taking medicine, and now his death is not too sudden.
"Your Majesty announced that you have entered the palace today because it is a national funeral, and you, as the only daughter of the emperor, should keep the spirit. If you feel that your body is not good, I will go to your majesty for you. ”
Li Taoyao glanced at Wei Youqing and asked suspiciously, "You will show your majesty for me?" Who is Your Majesty today? Wei Youqing immediately understood that the tone of his voice seemed to be very familiar with His Majesty today, and he was not as familiar as a monarch and a minister.
He hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty today is your Fourth Emperor Uncle, His Royal Highness the former King Chen. I used to be a retainer of the Chenwang Mansion, and I have a very good relationship with His Majesty, if you can't keep the spirit......"
"No need," Li Taoyao said lightly, looking around, "According to the etiquette system, I will keep filial piety for three years, and I will open a separate mansion for the princess without marriage, and I will go back to the palace to accompany my mother." ”
Wei Youqing wanted to speak and stopped, Li Chengsi died of illness, although the most direct cause of death was his dispute with Li Taoyao, but even if he didn't die at that time, he would only live one more day at most.
Empress Zhao's death was different, it was the indissoluble hatred between Wei Youqing and Li Taoyao. Wei Youqing pondered for a long time before he said vaguely:
"Taoyao, I'm really sad to tell you the news. On the night of the emperor's death, a fire broke out in the Taihe Palace, and the wind was particularly strong that night...... So, so ......"
Li Taoyao's eyes opened instantly, and he asked in a hoarse voice, "So what?" But it doesn't hurt for you to say it. Mother is hurt? ”
"No, you're hurt." Wei Youqing raised her head and looked at Li Taoyao with pity, "The queen is gone." ”
Li Taoyao only felt that the world was spinning, and Wei Youqing in front of him gradually blurred. Wei Youqing saw that Li Taoyao's eyes were straight, and she secretly screamed that it was not good, so she hurriedly reached out to help.
Li Taoyao did not faint as Wei Youqing expected, she just suppressed the sweet smell that surged up her throat, and held the hand stretched out by Lingzhu next to her, and it took a long time to calm her mind.
"Mr. Wei, are you saying that my parents are gone, right?"
Wei Youqing reluctantly accepted the title of "Mr. Wei" and nodded, which was regarded as answering Li Taoyao's question.
Li Taoyao silently walked to the dressing table, silently coiled her hair up with a white headband, and brought a small white flower between her sideburns. "Sister Lingzhu, find me a white dress, I want to enter the palace by order."
Wei Youqing silently watched Li Taoyao comb her hair, her hands were not shaking now, and she was a little calm.
Wei Youqing was worried, but at the moment, Li Taoyao's state was clearly unwilling to let people pity her. Wei Youqing said flatly: "Tao Yao, I also want to enter the palace, let's go together." ”
Li Taoyao nodded, Wei Youqing saw Lingzhu find a white cotton robe, and silently walked to the outhouse, waiting for Li Taoyao to come out.
When Li Taoyao, surrounded by a snow-like robe, appeared in front of Wei Youqing, the dignified, elegant and cold girl was as beautiful as a celestial, and she no longer had the evil spirit she had before.
Wei Youqing admired and sighed in her heart. If Tao Yao didn't go to Pearl Island at the beginning, if her mind had not been controlled by the evil thoughts of the green fox all these years, what would have been the outcome? How will Tao Yao face what happened that night?
The two got into the carriage silently, the beautiful little Ji who was like a fairy child waved the long whip elegantly, and the two jujube red horses with graceful curves took elegant steps, and in an instant came to the Da'an Palace, which was close to the princess's mansion.
Li Chengyu summoned his niece in the Dongming Palace, and he quickly discovered the changes in Li Taoyao. Li Taoyao has no evil spirit, dignified and elegant, and the country is fragrant.
It's just that Li Tao is very thin, and her thin cheeks do not damage her beauty, but together with the pale lip color, it forms a sickly beauty.
"Taoyao, Youqing," Li Chengyu instructed Xiaodouzi to sit for the two of them, and beckoned, "You two come and sit." ”
"Taoyao, you're so thin," Li Chengyu looked at Li Taoyao with concern, turned his head and asked Wei Youqing, "It doesn't matter, right?" ”
Wei Youqing understood that Li Chengyu was asking Li Taoyao's body, and replied: "It's just that the coma has been a little longer, and it's good to raise it slowly." ”
Li Chengyu nodded, and said to a small inner supervisor on the side: "Take Princess Yangcheng to the mourning hall and hand it over to Queen Zhang to take care of." ”
The inner prisoner has a fair complexion, bright eyes and bright teeth, and looks more like a palace maid wearing men's clothes. After listening to Li Chengyu's instructions, he bowed and said respectfully to Li Taoyao: "Your Royal Highness Princess, please come with the slaves." ”
Wei Youqing was surprised to find that the inner prison was actually a beaver. Li Taoyao also stared at the beaver, and her face was very surprised, because she had always thought that the beaver was a woman. Now when I hear him speak, although I listen to him tactfully, it is obvious that he is a man.
But Li Taoyao has lived in the deep palace for a long time, and naturally understands that the people around the emperor cannot be offended. Therefore, she quickly retracted her stunned gaze, got up and blessed Li Chengyu with all her blessings, and followed the beaver out of the main hall.
Li Chengyu watched Li Taoyao's back disappear at the door of the main hall, sighed lightly, and asked Wei Youqing: "Have you told her everything about Queen Zhao?" ”
"Yes," Wei Youqing knew as soon as he heard Li Chengyu's tone that he already knew that Li Taoyao didn't remember anything. Thinking that he had to make him more reassured, he said softly,
"A wisp of Tao Yao's soul was frightened too much that night, and it has been damaged at all. Youqing helped her get a new one, and she will slowly recover in the future, but she can't remember what happened that night anymore. ”
"A new one?" Li Chengyu looked at Wei Youqing with interest, "Youqing, you always impress me." When I'm gone, you can help me get another one. ”
Wei Youqing's heart hurt, and his eyes couldn't help but show disgust. He glanced at Li Chengyu dissatisfied, and felt a little rude, so he hurriedly lowered his eyelids and said softly:
"Your Majesty will not have that day, at least you will not see that day. If Your Majesty has such a day and Youqing can't save Your Majesty, Youqing only remembers His Majesty's words, and the only way to go is to go on the road together. ”
