Chapter 489 I’m Afraid I Won’t Make It This Time

In the next few days.

The imperial guards and imperial guards were strictly screened!

Anyone who was involved with the fifth prince would be executed.

The Ning'an Army was stationed outside the city.

The imperial guards and imperial guards took over the security of the palace.

The Fifth Prince's Mansion and the Right Prime Minister's Mansion were confiscated.

Fan Taihe was not spared.

Under the torture of the Supervisory Department, the Fifth Prince confessed a group of officials.

These people had a miserable end.

These days, beheadings were being made every day in Caishikou.

The turmoil caused by the Fifth Prince's usurpation of power gradually subsided.

But Emperor Xuan's cough had not improved.

He started taking some pears, and he could sleep a little better at night.

But now, pears are completely useless.

Emperor Xuan couldn't sleep all night because of his cough, and he lost a lot of weight.

On this day, someone came to the palace, Xuan Ningchen entered the palace.

......

"Minister, I pay my respects to Your Majesty!"

Ning Chen came to the imperial study and bowed.

The Emperor Xuan looked very bad. He picked up a memorial and said, "Take a look. This is what the Fourth Prince sent back at full speed."

Ning Chen stepped forward, opened the memorial, his eyes narrowed, and sneered, "Is this Xiliang Kingdom a little ungrateful?"

The Xiliang Kingdom did not say that it would not give the Immaculate Ice Lotus, but it asked Daxuan to exchange it for two cities, 10 million taels of silver, 10,000 war horses and other high-priced materials.

Ning Chen frowned, "How did the Xiliang Kingdom know that the Immaculate Ice Lotus was used to treat Your Majesty?"

"I remember that the purpose of the Immaculate Ice Lotus was not specified in the imperial edict to the Fourth Prince."

The Emperor Xuan nodded slightly, "Yes, the Fourth Prince did not know that the Immaculate Ice Lotus was used to treat me."

"It seems that there are many people who care about my life."

Ning Chen felt a little sympathetic to the Emperor Xuan... It's really hard to be an emperor!

"Your Majesty, why don't you choose a reliable prince and pass the throne to him... I'll take you to travel?"

Emperor Xuan glared at him, "I am the emperor, responsible for the livelihood of the people of the world, how can I be so irresponsible?"

Ning Chen felt a little distressed, "But you are really too tired, there are too many people staring at your chair."

Emperor Xuan sighed, "This is the fate of the emperor... Holding the supreme power, you must bear equal risks."

Ning Chen's face straightened.

"With me here, no one can hurt your majesty!"

"I want to go to Xiliang, please allow me, your majesty."

"Since Xiliang doesn't know what's good for them, I'll let them feel the sharp arrows of the soldiers of Daxuan."

Emperor Xuan looked at Ning Chen with a face full of relief.

"I understand your filial piety... But you just came back from the southern border, and there is a rebellion in the capital. You have been too tired recently. Take a good rest!"

"I will send someone to negotiate with Xiliang again. It would be best if there is no war."

Ning Chen knelt down, "Your Majesty, Xiliang Lion is asking for a lot of money, it is obviously deliberately making things difficult."

"Your Majesty, let me go... I heard from Zi Su that if your Majesty's illness is not treated in time, it will definitely cause a chronic disease in the future."

Emperor Xuan was about to speak, but he opened his mouth and started coughing violently again. It felt like he was about to cough out his lungs. His face was red and his eyes were bloodshot.

He covered his chest with a painful face and breathed rapidly.

The long coughing made his chest hurt so much that his abdomen also hurt.

Eunuch Quan was worried and hurried to help Emperor Xuan to calm down.

After a long time, Emperor Xuan recovered a little.

Ning Chen said, "Your Majesty, I want to go to Xiliang, please allow me."

Emperor Xuan rubbed his chest, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Okay, I agree! I will set off in ten days."

Ning Chen was shocked, "Your Majesty, there is no time to lose, I want to leave immediately."

"I have asked the Ministry of Rites to prepare... I will go after you and Huai'an get married."

"This is what I promised you. When you return from the southern border, I will let you and Huai'an get married... Your marriage has been delayed for too long!"

Ning Chen frowned, "Your Majesty, it's not too late to get married after I return from Xiliang."

Emperor Xuan sighed, "You have done enough for me, and this marriage has been delayed again and again... I know my body, don't worry, it will be fine!"

"Okay, it's decided!"

"Ning Chen, I'm a little tired... You go back and go to court tomorrow."

Ning Chen frowned.

Why get married at this time? Really.

After Ning Chen left, Emperor Xuan suddenly broke out in cold sweat, his face turned pale, and his breathing became rapid.

Then he started coughing violently again.

This time, he coughed up blood.

Eunuch Quan was so scared that his legs went weak, "Your Majesty... Imperial Physician, call the Imperial Physician quickly."

Emperor Xuan wiped his mouth with a snow-white silk handkerchief, which was stained with blood.

"Quansheng... Don't tell Ning Chen about this. This child looks unrestrained and carefree, but he actually values ​​feelings the most. He must be worried to death if he knows."

"I have dreamed of my father these past few nights... Quansheng. I am afraid it will be really difficult for me to survive this time."

Quansheng was trembling all over, his eyes were red, "Your Majesty, let the Marquis go to Xiliang. As long as he brings back the Immaculate Ice Lotus, Your Majesty will be blessed with great fortune and will be fine."

Emperor Xuan shook his head, "I am afraid it is too late. Is Xiliang so easy to fight? Don't let Ning Chen take risks again."

"I promised him to marry Huai'an, but it was delayed again and again... I want to see these two children get married, and I am worried that I will not be able to see it in the future."

"Quansheng, you have been with me for so long, I believe you... The will is behind the plaque in the Golden Palace, I will give it to you."

Father-in-law Quan was very excited and burst into tears.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty will be fine, you will be fine!"

...

After Ning Chen left the palace, he returned home directly.

I have been worried about Emperor Xuan's condition.

He walked quickly to the inner courtyard, intending to ask Zi Su if there was any good way to relieve his cough... How could Emperor Xuan's body be able to bear it if he continued to cough like this?

Ning Chen came to the room and Zi Su happened to be there.

"Zisu, do you have any good tips to relieve your cough? His Majesty's cough is getting worse and worse."

Zi Su thought for a while and said: "There are several methods that you can try...but if you want to cure it completely, you must have Wu Guo Ice Lotus."

"Great, you come to the palace with me tomorrow."

Zisu nodded, "Okay!"

"Huh? Where's Yudie?"

"I was busy just now, and my attention... seemed to be taken away by a maid."

Ning Chen said oh.

"Miss Zisu, girl Zisu..."

At this time, Gu Yichun's voice sounded outside the door.

This is Ning Chen's bedroom, and servants and maids are not allowed in.

Ning Chen walked to the door.

When Gu Yichun saw Ning Chen, he was obviously startled. He probably didn't expect Ning Chen to be there.

"What's wrong?"

"Master Hou, something happened to Miss Yudie!"

Ning Chen's expression changed.

Zisu heard that something had happened to Yudie and rushed over, "What's wrong with Yudie?"

Gu Yichun hesitated for a moment and said, "Master Hou, it's better to go and see it in person."

Ning Chen frowned, "Where is Yudie?"

Gu Yichun said: "The main hall."

Ning Chen quickly came to the main hall.

Seeing the situation inside, I couldn't help but be startled.
