Chapter 38: The Laying on of Feet

The eldest prince immediately stood up and replied, "Back to my father, my son has lost his temper, and I ask my father to forgive me." Erchen just felt that Master Ji was very confident and spoke funny, so he couldn't help laughing. ”

In front of the ministers, the eldest prince also took the initiative to ask for guilt, but the emperor didn't say anything, waved his hand and motioned for him to sit down.

The emperor said: "Ji Yushen, you also have times when you make mistakes. That's it, I'm tired, so you can also retire and rest. ”

Ji Yushen paused and slowly said goodbye.

The eldest prince looked at the back of him leaving, and couldn't wait to shout at him, asking him to come and play Huarong Dao with him next time, but the emperor didn't make a sound here.

Who is the emperor?

He only glanced at it, and he knew what the eldest prince's attitude was towards Ji Yushen, but he was in no mood to pay attention to this now-

"Su Youyi, do you want my toes to be wasted?"

Su Youyi was trying her best to break the emperor's toes, when she suddenly yelled at him, and she was so frightened that she almost pulled out the emperor's toes like a turnip.

Fortunately, the emperor's toes are stronger than turnips.

Su Youyi said: "The emperor didn't say anything just now, the slave thought you didn't feel pain." ”

The emperor said angrily: "If I don't say anything, it doesn't hurt?" How did you become an aunt in charge in the palace, and you can't even observe words and emotions at the most basic level? ”

The eldest prince slowly moved in and whispered, "Father, if the son is in pain, he will shout, and there is no need for Aunt Su to observe the words." ”

He has always defended Su Youyi, and the emperor has long been used to it.

Su Youyi said: "How do the emperor's palace people usually press their feet?" Don't you press so hard? If you don't work so hard, you can't solve the fatigue, and the emperor will know when he goes back to sleep at night. You usually walk less in the palace, and they don't have to press hard, but today you walk a lot, and you can't help but press like this. ”

She has always had a lot of reasoning, and the emperor saw that she was pressed with a layer of sweat on her forehead, and knew that she was not deliberately making it bad, but really thinking so.

When I went back to bed at night, I was much faster than before, so that my feet were so sore that I couldn't sleep.

Gao Qishou brought hot water to the dog's legs, "The emperor has been gone for a day today, soak your feet and then sleep?" I can't sleep with sore legs at night, and I'm going to cramp again. ”

The emperor looked at ease and got into bed unhurriedly, "No, I'll soak it when I come back today." ”

Gao Qishou was taken aback, "The servants who are serving outside are not at ease, but I am afraid that even the emperor's feet have not been washed, so it is better to wash them again, right?" ”

The emperor waved his hand impatiently, "Go to the eldest prince to soak there, don't be verbose." ”

Gao Qishou's two eyebrows were about to fly to the sky, and he was so busy that he retreated, "Yes, yes, the slave will retreat." ”

He extinguished the candlesticks in the inner room twice, leaving only the small one at the end of the emperor's bed still lit, which was the emperor's habit for many years.

Xiao Yizi walked out with a smile on his eyebrows, and said curiously, "Master, what's the good thing?" ”

Gao Qishou was bumpy, far away from the emperor's inner room, before he spoke to Xiao Yizi, "Where do you guess the emperor is going to wash his feet today?" The Great Prince is there! ”

"Huh? The eldest prince washed the emperor's feet, and the emperor must be very happy. ”

"Go, go, what kind of prince washes the emperor's feet."

Gao Qishou looked disgusted, "The eldest prince has that filial piety, and the emperor won't let him do it." The emperor said that he went to wash the feet of the eldest prince, can't you guess who it is? ”

When he left the palace this time, there were not many people with the eldest prince, and Xiao Yizi immediately thought of it, "Oh, it's Aunt Su!" No wonder the emperor rested so early today, if he had walked for a day in the past, he would have to soak his feet for a long time at night, and he would have to toss several times at night. ”

Gao Qishou sighed, "Isn't it?" Be vigilant at night, in case the emperor wants to call someone who dares to fall asleep, I will pout your hooves! ”

Xiao Yizi hurriedly said: "How dare you, Master, you all know that going on patrol is not better than being in the palace, everyone is worried about it, and you can't make a mistake!" ”

Gao Qishou yawned when he heard this, found a place to sit by the door, and quickly closed his eyes.

"Aunt Su, what do you mean by what your father said to Lord Ji today?"

The eldest prince refused to sleep at night, pestering Su Youyi to tell her about the dialogue between the emperor and Ji Yushen, but Su Youyi naturally didn't dare to talk about it.

The emperor said those words to Ji Yushen in her room, probably not unintentionally, and Su Youyi couldn't say what the purpose was.

Whether the emperor wants her to hear it or not, she can only pretend not to hear it when she hears it, this is her duty as a palace maid.

The eldest prince listened openly, but unfortunately he was too young and didn't understand the affairs of the court at all, but he knew that Su Youyi must have understood.

"Good aunt, just tell me about it, I promise not to tell others!"

The eldest prince's guarantee is not reliable, and he promised not to boast about Su Youyi to anyone anymore, but when he saw Jiang Su today, he subconsciously wanted to praise her.

After hesitating, Jiang Su misunderstood, and thought that she was under the control of the eldest prince, so that she could not explain it clearly.

Su Youyi said: "The eldest prince, the dialogue between the emperor and the courtiers is related to the government affairs, and the emperor has not let you participate in the government politics yet, so you should not ask so much." ”

The eldest prince flattened his mouth, "If my father doesn't want me to know, why do you want to say it in front of me?" He knew that I couldn't understand, so he deliberately left you, a person who can understand, to explain to me, it must be so! ”

He'll give himself a round.

Su Youyi smiled, the eldest prince's idea may not be wrong, but before the emperor agrees, she still doesn't want to explain too much.

Maybe it's because this matter is very important to Li Gelao, maybe it's because of ...... That person was Ji Yushen.

Su Youyi subconsciously didn't want to have anything to do with him anymore, and she didn't want to involve anything about him.

She tucked the corners of the quilt for the eldest prince, "The eldest prince should think about other problems, you were playing Huarong Dao when the emperor came up today, wasn't it?" ”

The eldest prince said: "Yes, my father and Lord Ji watched me play for a while, and my father said that he was going to find Aunt Su." Master Ji stayed to play with me, he played really well, and he was able to let Cao Cao escape the pursuit of the soldiers every time! ”

The eldest prince seemed to be very excited when he mentioned Ji Yushen, Su Youyi frowned slightly, and then realized that he was not only happy for the new toy, but also for Ji Yushen.

This is strange, her time by the eldest prince's side is not short, it is rare to see who the eldest prince particularly likes, how did Ji Yushen do it?

Su Youyi subconsciously didn't want the eldest prince to have anything to do with him, so she said: "Your Highness, the emperor doesn't like courtiers and princes to have too much contact, do you know?" ”

"Yes."

The eldest prince's interest dropped suddenly, "That's why my uncle took advantage of my father's absence today to come to see me secretly." Usually in the palace, my father and emperor are there, and he doesn't dare to come to see me. ”

Su Youyi nodded and said: "Marquis Weiyuan is the uncle, but this Lord Ji is an upstart in the court, and he is also the brother-in-law of Concubine Xian. Your Highness still has to avoid suspicion and don't get too close to him. ”
