Linglong's words fell in Qi Zhen's ears. He pursed his lips slightly and stagnated in his hand movements. Then his expression returned to normal, as if he had never heard Linglong's words, and he still held the medicine spoon and fed the soup into Linglong's mouth.

But Linglong, who was in a coma, refused to accept his trick. She shook her head to avoid the medicine spoon, pushed Qi Zhen's wrist outward, and murmured: "I don't want you, I don't want you to feed me, I don't want Qi Zhen to feed me..."

Once these words came out, it was difficult for Qi Zhen to pretend not to understand.

He was holding the decoction in his hand, and his face was extremely ugly.

Luoxia, who was on the side, heard her young lady's words and took a look at Qi Zhen's expression. She hurriedly stepped forward to take the medicine bowl and said, "My young lady is sick and will inevitably cause trouble. Your Highness, please don't take it to heart. I will feed you."

Qi Zhen pursed his lips and stood up, standing beside the bed and handed the medicine bowl to Luoxia.

Luoxia took the medicine bowl, knelt down beside the bed and carefully fed Linglong the medicine.

Sure enough, after being fed by another person, Linglong drank it obediently.

Qi Zhen looked at Linglong obediently drinking the medicine, and thought of how reluctant she was when he fed her, and he felt angry in his heart. But now that Linglong was ill, no matter how angry he was, he couldn't let it go.

I could only stand aside and watch her.

After the maid fed Linglong the decoction, Linglong calmed down, no longer cried or groaned, she hugged the quilt and curled up into a ball, looking very well-behaved.

It's just that his eyebrows are still furrowed, so he probably still feels uncomfortable.

Linglong turned sideways on the bed, and the jade pillow moved accordingly, revealing a brocade bag underneath the pillow.

This brocade bag was embroidered by Linglong for Qi Zhen some time ago. Qi Zhen did not accept it that day, so Linglong kept the brocade bag under her pillow.

Qi Zhen's eyes fell on the brocade bag, and he remembered the way she lost her temper because of the brocade bag, and the anger she felt hurt by her words at that time was gone.

Linglong's illness actually softened Qi Zhen's heart.

Qi Zhen's eyebrows grew warmer, he leaned down and lowered his head, took out the brocade bag from under the exquisite pillow, spread it out in the palm of his hand and looked at it.

This brocade bag is embroidered very carefully, which shows that a lot of thought was put into it.

Qi Zhen thought, in the final analysis, Linglong's words that day were just because of the little girl's jealousy, so why should he care about so many things with her.

Moreover, even if she was jealous, it wasn't because she had him in her heart that she was so domineering.

The phrase "disgusting" cannot be taken seriously.

But he was so angry that he believed her words.

Qi Zhen shook his head and chuckled, looking down at Linglong in his sleep, and put the kit into his sleeve.

This action naturally fell in the eyes of the maid on the side.

Luoxia breathed a sigh of relief and said: "The lady thought that His Highness's brocade bag was worn out, so she embroidered the brocade bag for His Highness. The lady has been embroidering this brocade bag with great care for a long time."

In fact, Luoxia doesn't know whether Qi Zhen prefers the eldest lady or the young lady. She just thinks that now that the young lady has married into the East Palace, she is destined to live by the favor of His Highness the Crown Prince in the future, and she doesn't want His Highness to have sex with the young lady.

Unhappy, I just hope that His Highness will remember the kindness of the young lady towards him.

As a maid, Luoxia is indeed loyal to her master, but unfortunately, she doesn't understand Linglong.

After saying these words, Qi Zhen's face gradually softened a lot.

After he properly put away the brocade bag, he told the maid waiting in the room: "I'm taking good care of your master. I still have some things to do in the lonely study. I'll come back to see her tomorrow."

Qi Zhen stayed up half the night today, not only because of Linglong's temper, but also because of political issues.

Today's imperial court looks extremely prosperous, but inside it is a mess.

The capital of the country is located in Jinling, and the Yanliu Painted Bridge on the border of Jiangnan is warm and soft. The emperor here has been soaked in the mist and rain of Jiangnan for a long time, and he has no intention of preparing for war.

The emperor is not a foolish king, but he has been the leader of peace for too long. He is afraid of war and does not dare to think about war.

In Qi Zhen's dream, he was able to follow the order and go to war. It was also because the Tatars had already moved south at that time, several cities on the frontier were lost, and the country was about to be destroyed, so the emperor made up his mind to let Qi Zhen go to war.

Even so, the emperor still wanted to seek peace and thought of crossing the Yangtze River to rule, but in the end he ended up with his body and head missing.

After Qi Zhen had that dream, he tried to change the emperor's mind, but the emperor never changed much. On the contrary, Qi Zhen repeatedly doubted him because of his preparations for war.

It is true that as a king's father, the emperor's treatment of his son Qi Zhen and the people under his rule cannot be regarded as cruel and ignorant, and can even be called "kind".

But he is too benevolent and has a desire to stay in peace. If there is a war in the future, I am afraid that he will be like in his previous life, seeking peace and delaying the opportunity to fight.

After Qi Zhen stepped out of the inner room of the Xueyuan, he walked to the study, thinking about this all the way.

At midnight today, the eldest son of Zheng Guogong's palace sent a secret packet from the Military Supplies Department to the East Palace. The packet said that the emperor was dissatisfied with the preparations for war in the northwest. Now that he had stopped expanding his army in the northwest, he wanted to build a palace in Yangzhou.

.

When Qi Zhen saw Mi Zhe, his emotions were really complicated.

Qi Zhen knew in his heart that in the final analysis, he was just a prince.

The crown prince is just a prince who has been temporarily confirmed as the successor. In fact, he does not hold imperial power, nor can he completely control the inside and outside of the court.

What can he do if he is to supervise the country? After the emperor issued an edict, all his hard work and planning may be in vain. In the end, nothing can be changed.

But if he really wanted to attack the emperor, Qi Zhen asked himself that he was not so cruel.

He had never thought of plotting rebellion, let alone killing his father to seize the throne.

The emperor had his faults, but he was not a bad father, nor was he a cruel and unkind emperor.

If Qi Zhen had really been exposed to a ruthless father, he would have been unable to save his life when he was deeply involved in the rebellion.

But a kind, benevolent and Confucian monarch can only be a steadfast monarch in times of peace and prosperity.

Once in troubled times, if the emperor cannot learn ruthless methods, he may lose thousands of miles of rivers and mountains to others.

Qi Zhen's mood became more and more complicated. When he arrived at the door of the study, he still couldn't make a decision and sighed helplessly.

He opened the door and stepped slowly into the study.

At this moment, a man is waiting in the study room.

This person is the crown prince of Zheng Guogong who is here today to deliver a secret gift, his name is Zheng Jingyan.

Zheng Jingyan heard the sound of the door opening and saw Qi Zhen coming in. He said, "Your Highness is back. I thought I had to wait until early tomorrow morning. How is the second lady of the Shen family? Is she seriously ill?"

Qi Zhen pinched his brows tiredly and replied: "It's just a fever caused by the wind and cold. It's nothing serious."

Zheng Jingyan laughed when he heard this and teased Qi Zhen: "No big deal? It's no big deal but you rushed over in such a hurry. This shows that the second young lady of the Shen family is of great importance to His Highness. I just don't know. Compared with

Between her and her sister, who is heavier?"

Qi Zhen's already cold expression became even colder. He glanced at the man and asked, "Why don't you leave?"

After hearing Qi Zhen's expulsion order, Zheng Jingyan showed no embarrassment on his face. He was still sitting on his chair without any intention of getting up.

"My A-Xiang told me to take my son and get out. No matter what I do, I have to make her anxious. She will definitely not come back home tonight." He poured himself a cup of tea and drank it up, looking a little carefree.

Although his posture and words were casual, there was still a hint of loneliness in his eyes.

The Axiang in this population is Qin Xiang. Linglong and Shen Qinliu's cousin calls Mrs. Ning'an Hou their aunt.

The cousin Linglong met in Rouge's shop when she went out was Qin Xiang.

It was also midnight when Zheng Jingyan came to deliver the discount today. Today Qin Xiang had just learned that he had redeemed his body for a brothel singer and was living outside, so she had a big quarrel with him.

If Zheng Jingyan hadn't been shameless and insisted on staying in his wife's room for the reason of taking care of his son, Qin Xiang would have kicked him out.

He got the superstition from the munitions department at night, and Dang even wanted to deliver it to Qi Zhen in the East Palace, but his wife at home was even more angry. She thought he was going to see some kind of outhouse that was kept outside at night, so Dang even asked him to take it with him.

Son, get out.

After Zheng Jingyan finished speaking, Qi Zhen frowned slightly and said disapprovingly: "A jealous woman should be restrained, but you are a grown man who was kicked out by his wife at home. If you say it out, you are not afraid of being laughed at by your colleagues in the court."

After listening to his words, Zheng Jingyan just shook his head and smiled, and said helplessly: "Your Highness certainly doesn't understand my plight, so I won't talk about it anymore."

Qi Zhen remembered that when he left the study, the man was still holding the child, but now the child was gone.

Somewhat puzzled, he asked: "Where is your son?"

Zheng Jingyan's expression paused slightly when he heard this, and then he said with a smile: "He fell asleep, so I put him on the couch in your inner room..."

Before he finished speaking, Qi Zhen's face became so gloomy that he could shed tears.

Qi Zhen loves cleanliness and hates others touching his bed.

But the child was only a few years old, so Qi Zhen couldn't argue with children, so he suppressed his anger and ordered the eunuchs of the East Palace to clean up a courtyard, and let Zheng Jingyan take his son out to rest.

Zheng Jingyan looked at Qi Zhen's expression and murmured: "Why, it's just one kiss, and your habit of not liking others touching your bed has not changed yet? Is it possible that Miss Shen Er can't sleep in your bed? She hasn't been able to sleep in your bed since then.

Do you have to go to your own bed and rest by yourself?"

Qi Zhen felt even more angry after hearing what he said, and cursed coldly: "What are you waiting for? Get out quickly."

Zheng Jingyan secretly looked at his anger and thought that he must have been angry at Miss Shen, which caused such a big evil fire.

He was a little worried that his son would be awakened by Qi Zhen's scolding, so he hurriedly walked to Qi Zhen's bed.

Fortunately, the little baby was sleeping deeply and was not awakened by the two people's words, and still fell asleep peacefully.

Zheng Jingyan picked up the child and said, "Let's go now, why bother?"

After this disgusting man took the child out of the study, the study finally became quiet again.

Qi Zhen stood beside the bed in the study with his eyebrows pinched. He was irritated and tired, and ordered the eunuch to change into a bedding.

In another courtyard, Zheng Jingyan, who had carried the child in his arms, had just put the child in the quilt when he accidentally saw a pendant in the child's hand.

He frowned, lowered his eyes to take a closer look, and said, "What is this?"

After taking a closer look, I saw clearly that it was a pendant made of exquisite dice.
