Yan Shi Yan Shi looked at the pitiful look of the little princess, and when he thought of what he had lied to him last night, his heart suddenly softened, and he could no longer say any words of rejection, took off his shoes and got under the quilt.
Originally, he wanted to lull Hua Ling to sleep before he came out quietly, but he didn't know whether it was because the bed was too warm or the smell of Hua Ling was too pleasant. In short, Yan Shi also fell asleep.
When I woke up again, it was almost past lunch time.
Yan Yi sighed, sleeping a little too much these days. He slept all day during the day yesterday. Although he couldn't sleep at first at night, he slept well afterwards, and he slept very peacefully throughout the night. Why did you wake up for so long and then slept for so long
As soon as Yan Shi moved this way, Hua Ling woke up. Seeing Yan Shi sitting up in only obscene clothes, Hua Ling hurriedly covered him with the quilt: "Brother, take care of your body, don't catch a cold." Yan Shi couldn't eat for a few days, but he was so worried that he might have another illness.
After sitting up, Yan Shi felt exhausted and couldn't lift his spirits up. He let the little princess put the quilt on him, and took his clothes and put them on him carefully. he wears. Hua Ling only thought that Yan Shi was so obedient because he just woke up, but he didn't know that Yan Shi didn't even have the strength to move.
Looking at it, Hua Ling felt itchy in her heart, and secretly kissed him on the cheek.
After lunch, Hua Ling returned to the palace.
Dali Temple didn't have any major cases recently, only some small cases. In the past, Yan Shi had to do everything by himself, but he was not feeling well these days, so he ordered the people below to investigate and deal with it.
Some days later, in the morning court, another minister brought up the incident that he said last time, and King Zhao and King Mu had another quarrel.
Emperor Chongjin's head hurt from their quarrel, and finally couldn't bear it anymore: "Shut up, everyone!"
King Zhao and King Mu immediately closed their mouths, not daring to say much, but they kept looking at each other.
Emperor Chongjin looked around the two of them, and suddenly turned his attention to Yan Shi who had been silent all this time: "Jingchu, what do you think of this matter
Yan Ji saluted and said: "Everything is up to the emperor's order."
"Father, if this matter is handed over to my son, I will definitely live up to my father's entrustment." King Mu rushed again.
King Zhao snorted coldly: "Anyone can speak big words. Being in charge of a foreign envoy is not a trivial matter. If something goes wrong, can you afford it?"
"Brother Second Emperor, how do you know that I can't take on this matter?" King Mu also sneered, "Younger brother is not talented, he uses martial arts in his thesis, and is resourceful and strategic. He is not inferior to Brother Second Emperor."
"Shut up, shut up!" Emperor Chong Jin rubbed his temples, "Jing Chu, I will leave this matter to you." After finishing speaking, he shook his dragon robe and stepped down.
King Zhao and King Mu stood on the same ground and looked at each other, wondering whether they had heard wrong just now.
Yan Shi did not expect that Emperor Chongjin would entrust this matter to him, but he said that there is no possibility of changing it, so Yan Shi hurriedly saluted: "Thank you, Father."
After returning to the palace, Yan Shi didn't feel very happy, he called Jiang Qingyue over and explained the matter. Jiang Qingyue also frowned when she heard the words, her face was very solemn.
Hua Ling tilted his head to look at Yan Shi: "Brother, what's wrong with you? Father chose you, doesn't it mean that he values you, isn't it a good thing?"
"Father chose me not because he paid attention to me." Yan Shi explained to the little princess, "In the past, King Zhao, King Mu, and King Ding competed for the throne, and it has been a situation of mutual restraint and balance for many years. Over the years, My father has similar feelings towards these three people, and even the ministers in the court don't know who he favors. But now that King Ding is dead, it's like a table is missing a leg, breaking this balance. Now my father chooses me Being in charge of this matter just wants me to be a stepping stone under this table, to make up for the role of King Ding."
"I still don't quite understand." Hua Ling's eyebrows were wrinkled into a knot, "Why does the father have to ask the elder brother to make up the Dingwang? Before the father was not allowed to reuse the elder brother, I also It can be seen that compared to the three princes, the father does not like his elder brother. Now it is decided
The king is dead, so the father can still maintain the original posture, swinging between King Zhao and King Mu, vacillating between left and right. Why, do you have to drag you here? Isn't this intentionally making enemies for you? "
Yan Shi said: "This is the emperor's strategy. Once King Ding dies, Father must think that the forces behind him will be accepted by King Zhao or King Mu. How can this degree of acceptance be completely divided into two? There must be a strong one." Another, this is the situation that the father doesn't want to see. Tell me, if the prince he doesn't like has more power than the prince he likes, how will he feel in his heart? "
Hua Ling said without thinking, "Of course I'm unhappy and uncomfortable."
"Yes. One more thing, even if the emperor doesn't have a suitable candidate for the crown prince in his heart now." Yan Shi continued, "He doesn't want to see a prince with too much power. In this way, it is up to him to choose who will be the crown prince in the future. He's calling the shots."
After Yan Shi finished explaining, Hua Ling nodded with a sudden realization: "I understand, brother, Father has piled you up now and distributed you some small powers, just to let King Zhao and King Mu think that Father has changed your opinion a little bit. You also have a chance to become the crown prince. Then elder brother, King Zhao, and King Mu formed a mutual restraint situation. In this way, the father will reap the benefits of the fisherman."
Jiang Qingyue said: "His Highness has been keeping a low profile over the years, and because of the weak power behind him, the other princes did not take His Highness seriously, which made things easier for His Highness. Now, His Highness can't keep a low profile. I'm afraid , the days to come will not be as peaceful as they are now."
At this time, the dumb mother brought over a plate of freshly made milk cakes, put them on the table, and made gestures again. Hua Ling explained for her: "The dumb mama said let's eat and chat. This is her newly developed goat's milk cake, which is made of goat's milk. I have been taking milk from last night to make the cake. It is very troublesome, but it is very troublesome. It's delicious, let's try it quickly."
While talking, Hua Ling took out a piece of sheep's milk cake and brought it to Yan Shi's mouth: "Brother, try it first."
Yan Shi drank goat's milk, but for some reason today, before the goat's milk cake reached his mouth, he smelled the unique smell of goat's milk, suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach, and retched uncontrollably .
Hua Ling hurriedly put the goat milk cake aside, with a worried look on her face: "Brother, what's wrong with you, brother?"
Yan Shi waved his hand: "It's nothing, it's just that the goat's milk cake has a bit of a smell, and I don't like that taste very much."
"Brother, you scared me to death," Hua Ling let out a long sigh of relief after hearing Yan Shi's words, picked up the goat milk cake on the table and took a bite, "Although it smells a bit smelly, it's very good It’s delicious, it smells like milk.”
For some reason, Yan Shi even watched Hua Ling eat it, but he still felt a little nauseous and wanted to vomit. He hurriedly picked up the tea on the table and took a sip, then pressed down to feel better.
When it was time to eat at night, looking at the table full of dishes, Yan Ji retched again and again.
Hua Ling looked puzzled: "Brother, there's no goat's milk on it, why are you still disgusted?"
Yan Shi looked at the table full of meat and vegetables, although the little princess looked thin and slender, but she loved meat very much, and the meat was all prepared for him. On weekdays, Yan Shi also ate some, but when he saw the meat today, he felt a greasy feeling, and he no longer had any appetite, he just wanted to vomit.
Yan Yi rubbed his stomach and said, "Maybe it's because my stomach has been uncomfortable for the past few days. Now I feel greasy after looking at the meat, so I feel a little nauseous."
"Then I won't eat it either." Hua Ling hurriedly asked his servants to remove all the vegetables with meat.
"Ming Ting, there's no need to be like this." Yan Shi stopped, "It's fine if I don't eat it, you can eat it, these dishes are all your favorite tonight."
But Hua Ling still took those dishes away, and ate some vegetarian dishes with Yan Shi. While eating, Yan Shi also faintly wanted to retch, maybe he was mentally prepared, and every time this nausea wanted to come up, he was forced to suppress it.
This meal was extremely difficult for Yan Ji to eat, it seemed to be more tormented than fighting.
A few days ago, I just felt that I couldn't eat, but today I felt sick and always wanted to vomit.
In the past, after eating, Yan Shi would accompany Hua Ling to walk around the mansion to digest food. But today Yan Shi was really powerless, so he took a bath early and rested.
Yan Shi took a bath first, leaned on the bedside and waited for Hua Ling while reading a book. Suddenly, a familiar feeling surged up in my abdomen—still a little retching.
Yan Shi couldn't help frowning, if she said she smelled some food before, she felt a little nauseous, but now there is nothing in the room, why does she still feel like this
Just when he couldn't figure it out, Hua Ling came over with a damp breath, smelling the fresh and pleasant smell of Hua Ling, Yan Shi's nausea eased a lot.
Yan Shi put down the book in his hand, hugged Hua Ling by the waist, pressed his face against his chest, and tried hard to suck the unique smell that belonged to Hua Ling.
Hua Ling was so startled that she didn't dare to move, since the two have been married for so long, Yan Shi seldom takes the initiative.
After Yan Shi hugged her for a while, she lifted the quilt and let Hua Ling get into bed.
Hua Ling also leaned on the head of the bed, reading a book with Yan Shi.
When encountering something Hua Ling couldn't understand, Yan Shi would whisper it to him. After watching for a while, Yan Shi felt so tired that his head rested on Hua Ling's shoulder unknowingly.
Hua Ling hurriedly wanted him to lie down and sleep, but Yan Shi seemed to sense his thoughts: "Don't move, let me lean on for a while."
Hua Ling passed her hand behind Yan Shi's back, and hugged him in her arms, enjoying the warmth and soft jade in her arms.
Hua Ling was very proud of herself, but why did she feel that today's banquet was a bit weird.
