There is a black lotus in the deep palace

Chapter 335 Old Disease
The days passed peacefully and comfortably.

Tang Waning felt that the imperial palace may not have such a peaceful time for so many years. Concubine Gao is in charge of the harem. Except for major events during the New Year, the entire harem has almost no sense of existence during the rest of the time.

Those harem affairs in the early years have long since ceased to exist. There was a lot of trouble at first, and then it quieted down.

After all, there is a lot to eat and a lot to wear, prosperity and wealth and no favors, everyone is on an equal footing.

When a place can be strict and fair, there will inevitably be fewer disputes in this place, and this is the case in the current harem.

Everyone has not been favored for many years, and they have not had children for many years. They are all treated well.

In this way, there is nothing to argue about, not to mention that most of the concubines in the palace entered the palace with Tang Wanning, or entered the palace earlier, and they were all close to thirty.

In ancient times, people married at the age of 15 and became grandmothers in their 30s. This age is still competing for favor, which is ridiculous.

The lives of concubines have become more and more ordinary these years. They have nothing but glory and wealth. There are no conflicts of interest, and their relationship with each other has become much closer.

In fact, Tang Waning knew that this group of people was not bad, and some of them were even warm-hearted. If they were neighbors, they didn't know how harmonious they were, so she didn't have to shy away from them to such an extent.

It's a pity that everyone is married to the same man now, there is no way, in order not to think about this deformed relationship as much as possible, she almost never takes the initiative to summon them, and just insists that everyone keep a distance and live in peace.

There are no waves in the harem, and concubine Gao can handle them even if there are waves, and the court is even more calm.

If Xiahou Jue encountered all kinds of government affairs problems in the first few years because he was not mature enough, then he can be said to be ruthless and more sophisticated than when he was a prince.

Throughout the Great Xia Dynasty, from the capital to the cabinet to the local state capitals, he established a very complete reporting mechanism. Once there were officials who corrupted and accepted bribes from the people, the people alone could report these people.

In this way, Xia Houjue was able to catch all corrupt officials with almost no effort.

I don't know how many winds and waves I have gone through to live so smoothly, and it is almost unreal to go smoothly.

Often he has already been enlightened in Taixue, and every day he wakes up early to go to school, and in the afternoon he has to go to the school to practice martial arts. The little man is actually busier than his father.

It’s okay in summer, but in winter, often after morning classes are over, it’s still dark, and a few-year-old child is so sleepy that he can fall asleep while standing with a book in his arms.

Tang Wanning was very distressed, and often blamed Xia Houjue: "It's all about your broken rules. You are really confused about how a child can grow up if he doesn't sleep at such a young age."

Xia Houjue didn't take it seriously: "What is this? When I was my age... I had to learn to survive on my own."

Speaking of this sad incident, Xia Houjue's voice immediately dimmed, and Tang Wanning was inconvenient to answer the conversation, so she just changed a softer tone and begged: "These things don't necessarily have to go through it all to become successful, do they? I think often this child is quite Smart, it's okay to let him sleep a little longer, right?"

"No, once he has this kind of thinking, he will get worse and worse in the future. One day he will be a little lazy, the next day he will be a big lazy one, and finally he will simply quit."

Knowing son Mo Ruofu, he knows the brat Xiahou Shanchuan very well. This kid is extremely smart, but he just likes to use clever tricks. He wants to find a shortcut to be lazy in everything. How can this work?

Most of the things in this world, after all, there is no shortcut, you have to take it one step at a time, just like this.

In the calm days, the two lived very leisurely.

Tang Wanning likes to read stories and cook delicious food, while Xia Houjue is busy governing the government. In his world, there is no such thing as leisure.

If he has free time, he will spare no effort to do it himself, just to do more things for the people. In his words, he wants to hand over to the prince a beautiful country full of flowers and a bright future. My old road will not be like my father's way, which will make the country full of scars and precarious.

……

How do you say something?Good days don't always last so long.

Tang Wanning received the news from the Tang Mansion in the middle of the night that her father was seriously ill and had to return soon.

Almost without thinking about it, she stiffened and sat up from the bed. Before she could cry, she hurriedly put on everything, got up from the bed and rushed out.

"Wanwan, wait!"

Xia Houjue quickly put on his clothes and followed out, and finally in the stable of the palace, he saw Tang Wanning who was hurriedly forcing the little eunuch to prepare a horse.

"Wanwan come with me, I'll take you out!"

Xia Houjue pulled her up and left, but Tang Wanning didn't say a word, just let him pull her, and she burst into tears as she strode forward.

Dad, Dad, this year is the 11th year of Qinghe, Dad is only in his 50s?He is just in his prime, he hasn't enjoyed much happiness yet, he hasn't spent his old age peacefully yet.

How is it possible, how is this possible?Didn't you always say it's okay every time you go home?Why did he suddenly become seriously ill?what on earth is it?I don't know if the brothers got the news or came back.

With anxiety, Tang Wanning finally arrived at the Tang mansion before dawn.

Different from the bustling compound in the past, this time the Tang Mansion was more solemn than ever. All the servants hurried with their heads down, their faces full of sorrow, and all the doors were closed. , and a faint smell of medicine can be smelled.

"Daddy! Daddy!"

She cried and rushed to open the door and ran to the main courtyard, crying as she ran.

When we arrived, everyone was already there, everyone lowered their heads and wept silently, the room was filled with the pungent smell of medicine, everyone was silent and only sobbed softly.

"Mom, what's wrong with my dad? Wasn't he still fine when he came back last time? Why did it happen suddenly?"

"It wasn't all of a sudden!" Mrs. Tang straightened her head suddenly, comforting her daughter like a child.

"Ning'er, you know that your father has been suffering from an old illness. He was already on the verge of recovering after taking good care of him, but last time your brother suffered an accident, your father became angry when he found out. You don't know his temper. When you get angry, something happens."

"But this time, he had no place to vent his anger, so he kept holding back. After all, his old disease relapsed. When we invited the imperial doctor to treat him, he just said it was too late."

"Your father is probably..."

"I don't believe it, old disease? What kind of old disease? Where does it hurt? Where does it hurt?"

Tang Wanning burst into tears, but she still didn't believe it. She rushed to the bed alone and looked at her father, who used to be strong and strong, now lying there lifeless, like someone who had already passed away.
