Chapter 691: Someone else is coming?
The figure was pushing a long cart in front of Xiao Yining, and the onlookers knelt down to see the emperor off.
The boy turned his head and glanced at the emperor. He saw that he closed his eyes and pretended to sleep after issuing a few decrees. He changed his posture and continued to look back. He saw that the figure stood up with the people around him and pushed the cart again. A thin man also sat on the cart.
At this moment, the emperor slightly opened his eyes, looked at the little kid lying restlessly on the back of the chair, and asked, "What are you looking at, Sister Qing?"
The little kid quickly turned around and sat down, and replied truthfully: "Uncle, Qingjie seems to have seen someone she knows!"
The emperor nodded slightly, closed his eyes again, and whispered, "Uncle, I haven't heard Sister Qing read for a long time. Today, you have some free time. Read a book for me to see how you have learned in the girls' school."
Xiao Yining: Σ(っ °Д °；)っ
Read a book?
Although she knew that taking the baby away would require some work, she didn't expect it to be so difficult.
Xiao Yining: ≥﹏≤, the little kids also need a day off, today is clearly a holiday!!!
The little kid immediately felt like crying but had no tears, and a pitiful look appeared on his face.
Unfortunately, the emperor had his eyes closed, so no one was destined to appreciate this pitiful expression.
Xiao Yining pursed her lips in grievance and looked back again with curiosity. The figure had stopped and raised his head to look over here.
This time, the little boy finally saw the man's face clearly, and a name popped up in his mind - Lin Yi Shi.
It turned out to be her. Lin Yinhu’s cousin had also come to Yanjing.
But this person is completely different from what he looked like a few months ago - his face is skinny and haggard.
Lin Yishi's ears were filled with enthusiastic speeches about the emperor. She stared at the receding figures of the imperial carriage team and murmured in a low voice, "I never thought that I would have the honor of seeing the emperor's face when I first arrived in Yanjing. It seems that what the third brother said when he returned to the village was true."
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard the thin man on the cart asking with concern: "Are you tired, Ashi? How about I get off!"
Hearing this, Lin Yishi hurriedly shook her head and said firmly, "Brother Shannai, your legs can't stand the tossing, let me push you. The Tianshan Mountain is ahead. I will go to the mountain and pray to the gods for your speedy recovery, and then I will take you to find my uncle. He is so capable that he can help Aunt Jinbao have a son. He will definitely help you find a good doctor to cure you."
Jiang Shannai's eyes were full of emotion, which then turned into deep guilt. He said, "Ashi, thank you for sneaking out to find a doctor with me. Don't worry, I will never let you down in this life."
A shy blush appeared on Lin Yishi's haggard face, and she replied softly, "I naturally believe in Brother Shannai."
After saying this, she continued to push the cart with great effort, and the two of them were gradually lost in the crowd while chatting and laughing.
The little boy did not see this scene. After recognizing that it was Lin Yi Shi, he thought about telling Lin Yinhu about it.
The naughty kid did not participate in the Tianshan sacrificial activities because he had been ill for several days. Lin Yinhu, as his only friend, stayed overnight in the palace to keep him company these days.
Thinking like this, Xiao Yining remembered her other mission. She turned to look at the old baby and said, "Uncle, can Qingjie go see uncle? Qingjie misses uncle too!"
Unexpectedly, the emperor refused without even thinking: "No, Ah Zhu's disease is more serious than that of ordinary people."
Xiao Yining: @_@, passerby, is it the flu?
The kid wanted to ask, but the emperor immediately added, "He has contracted an epidemic, and Cui Xiangyang is treating him."
Xiao Yining: =????(??? ????), how could there be an epidemic in the palace?
In an instant, countless scenes from palace fighting dramas flashed through her mind, with endless conspiracies and tricks using children as pawns.
She never thought that she would be able to meet him up close. She couldn't help but feel deep sympathy for the naughty child, and her face was filled with deep worry, for Sheng Hongtong and Lin Yinhu.
The emperor slowly raised his eyes and glanced at the little girl. Seeing her worried look, a kind look flashed across his eyes, and he said in a gentle voice, "Don't worry, Sister Qing. Ah Zhu is fine."
Little Yining came back to her senses immediately and asked anxiously, "Uncle, can Qingjie look at uncle from outside the house without going in?"
This time, the emperor did not refuse. He hesitated for a moment and nodded in agreement: "Let Pei... Concubine Nuan take you there."
As soon as these words were spoken, the little girl smiled sweetly to the emperor, but the sadness in her heart had not dissipated, so that the smile was a little fainter than before.
……
Imperial Palace Zehua Hall
Cui Xiangyang held his breath and changed the dressing for the second prince meticulously.
He carefully placed the strips of cloth he had taken off into the brazier, and then wrapped new strips of white cloth around the second prince. Round and round, the scarred face of the little boy was gradually covered by the white cloth.
After doing all this, Cui Xiangyang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Second Prince, change the medicine again and the scar on your face will gradually heal. However, the scar is too deep and may last a lifetime. I will do my best to prepare scar removal medicine for you and try to restore your face to its original state."
When Sheng Hongtong heard this, his red eyes instantly flashed with rage.
He refused with gnashing teeth: "No need, those evil people couldn't take my life, so they wanted to make me look bad and make my father hate me. Even today, my father didn't take me to the sacrifice, and he even put me under house arrest in the palace. I have to bear this shame and always remember today's humiliation."
Lin Yinhu, who was dressed similarly to him, replied nonchalantly: "Second Prince, as the saying goes, a father will not dislike his son's ugliness, and a son will not dislike his family's poverty. Even if you are ugly, the emperor still treats you as his son."
Sheng Hongtong:......
The naughty kid immediately retorted unhappily: "Brother Tiger, I am not ugly, and what you just said is totally wrong."
Lin Yinhu replied perfunctorily: "Oh, I just want to say that even if the Second Prince becomes ugly, the Emperor will not find you embarrassing."
Sheng Hongtong: *(￣ Pan￣)/
Cui Xiangyang looked at the two children who seemed to be about to quarrel again, and couldn't help but sigh and shake his head, and said: "Second Prince, you have just recovered from a serious illness, and your body has not yet fully recovered. The sacrificial ceremony is very important and cannot tolerate any mistakes. His Majesty asked you to stay in the palace out of consideration for your health and reputation. You should understand His Majesty's good intentions."
"Besides, the emperor hopes that you will be healthy and well, so he will arrange your enthronement ceremony on his birthday. On that day, you will be worshipped by all the officials, and you must not show your sick face to others."
Hardly had he finished speaking when hurried and disorderly footsteps were heard outside the hall; before anyone was seen, panicked reports were heard outside the door.
"Second Prince, something terrible has happened!"
A young eunuch hurriedly ran into the palace, crawled and knelt in front of Sheng Hongtong, and continued: "Something happened in Tianshan. Your Majesty was attacked during the sacrifice, and even the statue was broken..."
