Sixty-seven, beautiful pictures in the bedroom

Zhou Xuan set out from Jinling on February 16 to Kaifeng, Songjing. He returned to Jinling on June 13. Four months ago, it took longer than last year to travel to and from the Southern Hanxing Palace. He missed home very much. However, now Emperor Li Yu is seriously ill. King Jing's party is planning to cause trouble. The surface of Jinling City is still prosperous, but the undercurrents in the mainland are surging. If Zhou Xuan wants to be his free and happy Duke, he must defeat King Jing Li Kun and help Prince Li Jian ascend to the throne. Therefore, he did not care about returning to Xiangluanfang Palace and took twenty personal soldiers and twenty Yulin Guards with Lin Heishan to meet Prince Li Jian.

I didn't feel anything different from the usual in Shifang Street Market, but as soon as I entered the imperial city and the palace city, I felt a tense atmosphere. The Jinwu Guards and Yulin Guards patrol each other, and the East Palace was even more guarded.

When Prince Li Jian heard that Zhou Xuan of Wu was back, he was overjoyed and welcomed him out of the palace gate. The entourage guards followed more than twenty people. When Li Jian held hands and greeted Zhou Xuan, one of the guards came forward to salute, but they were three fools.

"Last brother, why are you here?" Zhou Xuan asked in surprise.

Sanchi said, "Didn't the master ask me to protect the Eastern Palace for good health?"

Zhou Xuan nodded and said, "Yes, at this extraordinary moment, you should follow His Highness."

Li Jian said: "I am really worried these days. I hope that my cousin Xuan will return day and night to share my worries. Fortunately, my cousin Xuan will return in time."

Zhou Xuan said: "I learned the news at Daming Mansion on the 27th of last month. I knew the matter was urgent. I rushed back for more than 2,000 miles in just 16 days."

Li Jian said: "Thank you for your hard work in cousin Xuan. Cousin Xuan has not yet met his father and mother. I will accompany Cousin Xuan to talk about some things while walking."

Zhou Xuan and Li Jian walked to Daxing Palace. Li Jian told Zhou Xuan about his father and daughter Li Yu's condition, saying that the Imperial Doctor ordered Qin Que and his daughter to consult with other imperial doctors many times, but they were helpless with Li Yu's wind disease. Dr. Qin Xiong believed that the disease was in the brain pulse and blood stasis, and it was impossible to cure it without Hua Tuo's wonderful hand of returning to heaven.

Zhou Xuan nodded secretly. Qin Yuezhang's medical skills were indeed more skilled than those of the imperial physicians in Beijing. Li Yu had a cerebral thrombosis and stroke. If he had been in later generations, he could have surgery to treat it. However, in this Tang Dynasty, only Chinese medicine to promote blood circulation and remove stasis can be used to relieve its symptoms. The extent to which it can be restored depends on Li Yu's own luck.

Zhou Xuan said: "Brother Jian, since Your Majesty is seriously ill, he cannot speak or go to court. According to the Tang Dynasty, you should supervise the country as the prince and act as the government. This is legitimate. Why are you still in a hurry to live in the Eastern Palace?"

Li Jian said angrily: "Half a month after his father was sick, some court officials proposed that we be supervised, but Li Kun's party strongly opposed it. Wei Xuan and Huangfu Jixun were all in power, saying that his father has always been strong and healthy, and the small wind disease will be cured soon. Why should the prince supervise the country? He also spread rumors that I was eager to get to power, which is very unfilial."

Zhou Xuan frowned and pondered for a while, and asked, "What does the Empress mean?" He thought to himself: "Mr. Zhou is very knowledgeable and is Li Jian's biological mother. She will not sit and watch Li Jian fight with Li Kun to the death. At this time, let Li Jian supervise the country and gain a foothold. When Li Kun sees the hope is slim, he may be his King of Jing honestly. Li Jian has said long ago that if Li Kun is his duty prince, he will not force Li Kun to death."

Li Jian said: "The father was still sensible. The mother asked the father about the matter of the prince's reign, but the father did not nod, so he kept dragging him down. It is estimated that the mother was also afraid that Li Kun would attack immediately when he learned that I was acting in court, so hesitated."

Zhou Xuan asked: "Yulin, Jinwu's two imperial guards have a total of 12,000. How many of them are involved in King Jing?"

Li Jian said: "There are not many people who really defect to Li Kun, but many imperial guards are very close to Huangfu Jixun. Only Lin Ji, deputy envoy of the left army of Yulin Guard, stood firmly on my side. However, Lin Ji has only been transferred to the deputy envoy of the left army for half a year, and he cannot fully control the left army left army."

Zhou Xuan nodded and said, "In addition to Brother Heishan's Zhongwu Guards, the Eight Guards of Jinling, are basically Huangfu Jixun's confidants. Although they may not necessarily rebel with Huangfu Jixun, as long as Your Majesty controls the dragon and returns to heaven, and King Jing then commands the court and the party with his brother to the throne and the alliance to pass on the throne, these people will be used by King Jing soon. This is really worrying."

Li Jian was silent.

Zhou Xuan asked: "Have Qi Hong's navy arrived?"

Li Jian was excited and said, "General Qi's 10,000 naval troops were stationed on the north bank of Bailuzhou Wharf, and practiced on the river every day. This was our support. Huangfu Jixun did not dare to act rashly, because General Qi Hong was there."

Zhou Xuanluo was a little relieved and couldn't figure it out. Li Yu was clear-headed. How could he not figure out the link? If he really dragged his life, wouldn't this Tang Kingdom be in chaos?

The dusk is dark and extremely hot. The Daxing Palace, which used to be a silk, bamboo, bells, chimes, and singing and dancing, is now covered by sorrow and mist. Although the palace is tall, it makes people feel breathless.

Li Yu was in the bedroom of Zichen Hall, and the lights were not very bright. The eunuchs and palace maids were solemn and did not dare to speak. When the eunuchs of the leader Bai Lishi saw Zhou Xuan, his face looked happy. He then smiled and whispered a few greetings, saying, "The Duke's wife, the Imperial Doctor, Lord Qin, are also inside, and His Highness King Jing is also here." After that, he went to report and came out quickly and said, "The Empress asks the Crown Prince and the Duke to come in."

Zhou Xuan and Li Jian followed Bai Lishi to the bedroom and saw a wide curtain and cloud bed, separated by a screen. The lights were bright on one side and there was only a palace lantern on the other side. It must be that Li Yu was sick and afraid of seeing the lights.

Queen Zhou came over under the attendance of several palace maids. The light and shadow were clear and her figure was graceful. Before Zhou Xuan could see the appearance of Queen Zhou clearly, he did not notice where Qin Que was. He fell to the ground and said with a sob: "Auntie, my nephew and son-in-law three thousand miles away to hear the news. He rushed back at night. Your Majesty is auspicious and celestial phenomena. He will definitely heal. Don't worry."

Queen Xiao Zhou also choked up his voice: "Nephew Xuan, get up. For some reason, when she saw Nephew Xuan come back, her aunt's heart became much more stable. His Majesty also talked about you yesterday and hoped that you would come back soon."

Zhou Xuan was stunned and thought to himself: "Didn't you say that your father-in-law Li Yu can't speak? Why would you still mutter me?" He stood up and asked: "Is Your Majesty's Dragon Body now? Can I pay my respects to you?"

Xiao Zhouhou said, "Nephew Xuan, I'll go and ask His Majesty what he meant."

Xiao Zhou's waist is slender and his feet are shattered. After walking into the dim screen, the slim back that disappeared before the dimness brings fresh vitality to the dull bedroom-

The palace of Daxing Palace is tall and spacious, and it doesn’t feel hot in the big summer, but this year’s summer is particularly dull and hot. Xiao Zhouhou, who has ice and jade bones, also feels hot and hard to bear. Maybe it’s because Li Yu is seriously ill. She is anxious and bored, and she feels the weather is particularly stuffy. So Xiao Zhouhou did not wear those complicated palace outfits with skirts. She only wore the half-sleeved cheongsam designed by Zhou Xuan. She does not tie her waist, does not tie her waist, is curved and elegant, simple and elegant—

Although the back of Xiao Zhouhou was beautiful, Zhou Xuan only looked at him and withdrew his gaze, turned his head to look for Qin Que, but first saw King Jing Li Kun on the side. The King Jing Li Kun's eyes were hot and complicated, and he was still staring at eight screens. When he felt Zhou Xuan staring at him, he turned his head to Zhou Xuan, and Li Jian nodded without saying anything.

Qin Que walked out from behind several female officials, looked at Zhou Xuan with bright eyes, and said softly: "Husband——"

These days, this beautiful female imperial physician often accompanied Xiao Zhouhou to take care of Emperor Li Yu. Sometimes she was summoned to the palace in the middle of the night. She was worried and very tired every day for the past two months. When she saw Zhou Xuan, she felt happy and relieved, and a little bitter. She felt her legs were weak and wanted to lean on her husband's shoulder to take a nap.

Zhou Xuan didn't have so much scruples. He stepped forward and hugged Qin Que's waist, gently kissed her eyeshadow, and said softly: "Thank you for your hard work, your eyes are blue."

Qin Que held back her tears and used Zhou Xuan's sleeve to quietly wipe away the tears he had in his mouth. He smelled the smell of sweat on Zhou Xuan's body, the smell of water and earthy smell. My husband was so hard that he rushed back three thousand miles away, and he had no time to repair his hair and beards and tents.

After almost half a year of separation, there was a lot to say, but at this time, only looking at each other and being silent, Zhou Xuan stood quietly outside the screen holding Qin Que's hand.

Although there were more than ten people in the bedroom, it was very quiet. Zhou Xuan's eyes were not good, but his ears were very flexible. He only heard a slight sound behind the screen several feet away, including a soft and delicate voice from the queen of Xiao Zhou, and a vague cough with phlegm in the throat. Of course, Emperor Li Yu was talking, but no matter how Zhou Xuan held his breath, he could not hear what Li Yu was saying. It seemed that only the queen of Zhou who had been with him for many years could understand his meaning.

After a while, Xiao Zhouhou came out and said, "Jian'er, Kun'er, and Xuan's three of you come in--" Looking at Qin Que holding hands with Zhou Xuan, she smiled slightly: "Doctor Qin is also coming in."

Zhou Xuan, Qin Que, Li Jian and Li Kun followed Xiao Zhou Hou into the screen and saw a short table in front of the bed, with an octagonal glass palace lantern hanging on the wall, and the light was dim. The formerly elegant and handsome talented emperor Li Yu was half lying on the bed at this time. His hair and beard were not as silver-white as before, but dry white as the stems of the winter, with no vitality.

Li Yu's face was dull. When he saw Zhou Xuan, his eyes rolled. If it weren't for the careful little Zhou Hou, he wouldn't have noticed that he nodded.

The young Zhou Hou said, "Nephew Xuan, Your Majesty recognizes you."

Zhou Xuan knelt down quickly, and saw Li Yu stretching out his hand, not knowing what he was going to do, so he dared not act rashly, so he turned his head to look at Xiao Zhou Hou.

Xiao Zhouhou whispered: "Nephew Xuan, reach out and let Your Majesty touch you."

Li Yu pressed his dry right hand on the back of Zhou Xuan's hand, patted it, and then reached out to Li Jian. When Li Jian also put his hand on the edge of the bed, Li Yu stretched out his hand to King Jing Li Kun, and Li Kun also knelt down and placed his hand on the edge of the bed.

Li Yu struggled to stack Li Jian and Li Kun's palms together, then signaled to take the pen and ink, trembling, and wrote four words on a Chengxintang paper - "Brothers are in harmony"

Li Jian called out in tears: "Father--"

Li Kun also called out: "Your Majesty Uncle--"

Li Yu pressed his hand on the overlapping hands of Li Jian and Li Kun, and was snoring and saying something, but no one else understood. Only Xiao Zhou listened intently and asked for evidence from time to time, and Li Yu nodded.

Xiao Zhou Hou had a beautiful and dignified face and said, "Li Jian, Li Kun received the order--"
