Is the emperor cremated today?

The grass grows and warblers fly, and in the blink of an eye several more cold and hot days pass by.

After the Lantern Festival that year, Qi Yue went to Jiangnan. Xu Miaoyin moved Awan back to Fengyi Palace. Awan also slowly grew into a cardamom girl. Three years after Xiao Lin entered Taixue, Xiao Qi brought him He was placed in the Imperial City Guards and now he is also the deputy commander.

Since Xu Xian took over Liyang, Fang Zhiyuan could no longer intervene in the military defense in Liyang. The Minister of the Ministry of War was also imprisoned after the Lantern Festival of the following year because of the Liyang mutiny six years ago. In March of the same year, Chen Fengling was appointed to the Ministry of War. Shangshu, the Minister of Hubu submitted a letter to retire and return to his hometown. The position of Shangshu of Hubu was promoted to the post of Minister of Hubu.

In the past few years, there have been constant battles at the border. Fortunately, Xiao Qi now intends to cultivate some talents. There are also a few generals who can fight, and there is a great figure in the Liyang Army. In name, Xu Xian's right general is actually the actual person in charge of the entire border defense army. He has made a lot of contributions in the two years of battles. He is called the young marshal in the border defense army.

On the Jiangnan Navy side, Qiao Zhi captured all the pirates who had been scurrying around in the past two years. At first, the pirates looked down on the newly appointed naval admiral and frequently harassed the villages and towns on the seaside. Until Qiao Zhi bypassed them and captured the pirates. It was only after Lao Chao served them that they realized how powerful Qiao Zhi was, and they were completely convinced after that. From then on, there were no hidden dangers in the merchant ships going out to sea. Qi Yue's trading company also organized a fleet to go to Nanyang, and the harvest from one trip was thousands. Two, Qi Yue's trading firms also spread all over the country in a short period of time.

There is a state of prosperity both inside and outside.

Liyang is not as prosperous as Kyoto. It is mostly a wasteland and Gobi desert. Most of the people are simple and simple. Their lives are simple and happy, so sometimes Xiao Duo feels that it may be difficult to spend his whole life here.

Xiao Duo sat on the hillside and watched the sunset not far away slowly sinking into the mountains. There was only a red cloud left in the sky, and a homing pigeon flew in among the red cloud.

The carrier pigeon landed on a dead tree not far away, Xiao Duo got up and walked towards it.

He took off the letterhead from its feet, let the pigeon go, and opened the letterhead. There was a line of small words on it: Food and grass are ready.

Xiao Duo's expression became much more solemn. He looked again and saw that the red clouds in the distance had slowly faded away. It was going to be dark soon!

Who doesn’t yearn for simple and happy days, but he has things he needs to do!

In the main hall of Taiji Palace, the courtiers were reporting various government affairs to the emperor. At the great court meeting held every seven days, the Minister of the Ministry of Finance finished his report and looked at the emperor on the dragon throne, then retreated to his seat. While the Minister of the Ministry of Industry When he came out to report, he quietly asked Chen Fengling, who was beside him with his eyes lowered.

"Master Chen, what's going on, Your Majesty? Why do you look uglier than yesterday?"

Chen Fengling raised her eyes slightly and glanced at Xiao Qi, then glanced at the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance, and said lazily: "I guess His Majesty hasn't woken up yet!"

"Hey, Mr. Chen, I'm telling you something serious!" Shangshu of the Ministry of Finance was a little annoyed and his voice was louder.

Chen Fengling glanced at him again, curled her lips, and said, "Who do you think can make our wise and mighty Majesty look cold on you? Isn't that the only one?"

Seeing that he was still so unruly, the Minister of Hubu curled his lips and stopped talking to him.

Xiao Qi sat on the dragon throne and rubbed the bridge of his nose slightly. Seeing that no one was reporting anymore, he glanced at Zhu Weng, who understood and said loudly: "Retreat from the court..."

Before Zhu Weng finished speaking, the last remonstrator wearing a green robe came out and said, "I have something to say!"

Xiao Qi frowned slightly, "Zou!"

The admonisher said: "Your Majesty, since your Majesty came to the throne, the world has been going smoothly and there has been no war at the border..."

Xiao Qi didn't want to hear him chew on words, "Tell me the key points!"

The admonisher choked and continued: "Although, although your Majesty is still in his prime, you still have to consider the inheritance of the royal family. I would like to ask your Majesty to accept the concubine Yanmian's heirs!"

Xiao Qi already had a headache, but now his head was buzzing even more. He stood up suddenly, glanced at the admonisher kneeling in the hall, and left the court hall without saying a word. After the ministers knelt down to see the emperor off respectfully, they all left the palace and returned to their yamen in groups to work.

Only the admonisher walked alone, his back as straight as a log.

The ministers passing by all glanced at him.

Judging from his official uniform, he must be a new remonstrator who has just taken office. He is really brave. He dares to propose to His Majesty the matter of having an heir and a concubine. None of the courtiers know that Your Majesty does not allow foreign ministers to comment on the matter of adopting a concubine. He actually dared to say it carelessly in the court meeting, really, newborn calves are not afraid of tigers!

His official career is coming to an end!

Xiao Qi, who returned to Qinzheng Hall, did not take this matter to heart. After all these years, are there still few people who have persuaded him to adopt concubines and continue to have children? He would not take the words of a mere admonisher to heart. He left just because he had a headache.

He originally planned to go to the Qinzheng Hall, but now that he had just arrived at the entrance of the hall, Xiao Qi frowned and held on to the wall beside him. His head hurt like a saw in his brain, so he could only hold on to the wall. stopped.

Zhu Weng on the side had already sent someone to ask for the imperial doctor, but Xiao Qi's behavior really worried him. He supported Xiao Qi and said, "Your Majesty, let's go back to Fengyi Palace to rest!"

Since the imperial concubine returned to Fengyi Palace, Xiao Qi spent most of the month living in the imperial concubine's palace except for official duties. He only occasionally went to the imperial concubine Fang Xian's palace for a day or two. Sitting there, Zhu Weng naturally wanted to ask Xiao Qi to return to Fengyi Palace.

Xiao Qi frowned and said, "Go back to the dormitory."

Zhu Weng was a little surprised but still let the chamberlain help Xiao Qi back to the dormitory. After a while, the imperial doctor also arrived.

After checking his pulse, the imperial doctor gave Xiao Qi some soothing pills and went down to prescribe medicine. Seeing Xiao Qi lying on the bed and seeming to have fallen asleep, Zhu Weng followed the imperial doctor out of the dormitory. Just as he was about to ask about His Majesty's condition, he Seeing Xu Miaoyin walking over with Yu Qiao and Yu Shu.

The two of them knelt down to pay their respects.

Xu Miaoyin raised her hand and asked, "Mr. Zhang, how is your majesty doing now?"

Doctor Zhang cupped his hands and said: "Back to your Majesty, your Majesty's headaches have become more and more serious in the past two years. I can only prescribe some analgesics and acupuncture to slow down the pain. If you want to cure it completely, please forgive me for my incompetence."

Doctor Zhang Yu is the head of the hospital. If he can't do anything, then there really is no other way.

Xu Miaoyin couldn't force it, so she could only nod and let Dr. Zhang get up and go about his business.

Xu Miaoyin walked into the inner hall. It was hot in summer, Xiao Qi had a headache and couldn't put ice on it, so Maotian could only fan him gently with a fan.

Seeing that Xiao Qi seemed to be asleep, Xu Miaoyin softly asked Maotian to go out. She took the fan and sat in front of the bed to fan him gently.

Xiao Qi's headache only eased a little, and his head was still a little uncomfortable, so he didn't fall asleep. He knew what was happening around him, but even if he knew that Xu Miaoyin was fanning himself, he didn't want to wake up. Come.

In the past few years, she had been unexpectedly kind to him, but that change always made him uneasy, and gradually the two of them got along with each other to the point of treating each other with respect.

He doesn't like this feeling?

Two days ago, he couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to have a big quarrel with her, but she looked at him with that calm look, like looking at an unreasonable child. He couldn't hold back. He stayed in the dormitory of Tai Chi Palace for the past two days. , but without her, he couldn't sleep well, and then he got a headache.

I was still angry, and I just wanted to let her accompany me like this.
