Helmer's hand holding the tableware froze in mid-air.
When Leng Yiyao said this, he suddenly felt jealous. But, for a high school student, to be honest, this kind of jealousy is really something he only feels in his life. It’s just that the more I live, the more I go back...
Fortunately, Frey knew how to look and didn't follow him tonight.
He rubbed his temples and suddenly didn't know how to approach this topic.
Leng Yiyao was actually not prepared to ask him to explain how he knew Qi Jun was such a person. Anyway, whenever there is any unusual behavior from others around her, especially men, Hemo will be informed immediately no matter where she is. This kind of thing doesn't happen just once or twice, so just get used to it.
"In about 50 days, it will be National Day. By then, what gifts do you want?" Hemo coughed, pretending to change the subject.
Leng Yiyao didn't bother with the old joke. While eating hot pot, she was thinking about the National Day issue, "Will the holiday be long?"
Logically speaking, there will definitely be a long holiday during National Day, especially for students. It's been so long since she was reborn and she hasn't had a chance to wander around. I have only stayed in two major cities in total, D City and Imperial Capital, so I have a lot to spend. Adding another one is just the city where I visited Grandpa Lu Chen. However, I just passed by there and didn't take a closer look at it.
"People across the country have a week off." Hemer smiled. This has been an old practice for many years. However, those are for the public. The more times like this, the more things happen to him. Foreign affairs visits, reception of foreign guests, and ceremonial military parades are endless. Until the last day, it seems that the schedule is always full.
"Then let's go on a free trip." Leng Yiyao thought for a moment and realized that she still preferred warm places. Autumn in the empire was already so cold, and it was foreseeable that winter would only get colder. When the time comes, find a warm place and take a vacation. Jedi is a wonderful way to relax.
Free travel? Taking advantage of his busiest time
Humer's face darkened unconsciously.
Leng Yiyao was looking at the bubbling hot pot and didn't notice his expression. However, if she noticed it, she wouldn't change her mind, sacrifice her own holiday, and stay at the Marshal's Mansion to accompany him on official duties.
Helmer found that the beef in the pot, when he ate it now, did not have the tender and refreshing taste at all. He slowly took a sip of the drink, seemed to ponder for a while, and then said: "You didn't go out much in the past, and it's easy for a girl to be bullied outside. Why don't you wait until I'm over the National Day, and then you can take a week off, and we can go together?"
hehe… …
Leng Yiyao really wanted to say that the emotional military academy is run by your family, so just ask for leave if you ask for leave. Why did she write this leave request note at Shengde High School? It’s too cold in winter and you don’t want to get up, so you go to a warm place to sleep in? She could even imagine the expression on Walker's face when she handed over the leave request form.
Leng Yiyao lowered her head to eat the vegetables...
Hemo found that although he had removed the two unsightly objects opposite him, he was no more worthy of Leng Yiyao's attention than the hot pot of hot pot in front of him...
After finishing the hot pot, the two of them returned to where Frey parked his car. Helmer opened the back seat door for her as usual, and the two of them got in the car. Frey was about to ask them what they had played at night, but saw Leng Yiyao's interest. Very tall, with a marshal's face... .
Well, pretend he didn't see anything.
Frey turned around and silently smashed his mouth.
Marshal, this can't be done.
Although you have a noble status, you need to put down your dignity to "pick up girls".
The marshal has never seen his brother-in-law!
His brother-in-law knew that he was as big as his sister, and a fresh and tender flower was placed on a pile of things. He was so flattered in his heart that when he touched his sister, it turned into a soft smile around his fingers! All the heavy and tiring work is his, and he will never make his sister unhappy at all.
A man! There is nothing wrong with loving your own woman. How can I come back from a nice shopping trip with a dark face? Next time, what if Miss Leng won’t invite him to go shopping together? He stared at the report that came over again, staring intently
Hemo didn't know that one of his closest personal guards had secretly arranged the cause and effect in his heart.
All he could think about was one question - How could he keep the woman in front of him by his side during the National Day!
Frey didn't dare to speak casually because of the atmosphere, and Helmer was thinking wrongly again. Logically speaking, the car should be eerily quiet. But Leng Yiyao didn't feel the atmosphere was awkward at all. On the contrary, she was quite enjoying herself. She took out her phone and opened the class's contact group.
Sure enough, throughout the whole day today, the crowd in the class was about to explode!
Someone specially captured everything in the swimming pool today!
It was originally a high-definition camera used to shoot games, but now it has no other use.
HD photos from the moment Hemer unbuttons and jumps into the pool!
The straight lines split the water, the hands swing rapidly, half of the face is exposed, and the sharp corners of the eyes are as warm as the wind and snow, almost shocking the shots!
Not to mention, this guy is really photogenic!
As for the photos from the back……..
What kind of cross-necked mandarin ducks, like glue and paint, you and me... all kinds of townhouse plans have appeared...
With this level of capture, if you don't go to the paparazzi, it will simply delay your future...
Leng Yiyao casually switched to the whole school section of Shengde High School and took a look, and found that this post had been pinned to the top by others, and the essence had been added. It was like a massacre. The comments below are also of various kinds...
"I didn't expect you to be such a marshal, 6666666..."
"I'm so in love, what should I do? I suddenly feel that this couple is a perfect match..."
"Putting up a big flag, I said that I am afraid that this couple will be made public before long! If not, you can slap me in the face with this message!"
There is also a painting style like this:
"I never knew that a celibate marshal could have such a fiery side!"
"Is there any more national idol? Leng Yiyao, give me back the throne of princess and the position of the marshal's wife!"
"It feels like the moment the marshal finally came out of the swimming pool, Leng Yiyao put on the towel too fast! I want to see the mermaid thread!"
Leng Yiyao thought about the consequences of showing this last message to Helmer. She was probably very happy...
Helmer turned his head and gave her a strange look. This person is usually quite cold-hearted. Why is he smiling so happily today while staring at his cell phone
Just when I was about to ask, a car suddenly followed me!
As Frey drove, he paid attention to the cars coming behind him.
Today, because Marshal was in a hurry to go to Shengde High School to watch Leng Yiyao's game, he didn't take anyone else with him at all and drove there alone. Who would have thought that so late in the evening, some unsighted people would dare to follow the marshal's car!
"Marshal, Miss Leng, please sit tight. There is a car behind you. I'll get rid of him." The look on Frey's face turned cold, and he stepped on the accelerator. The specially modified car had an unusual speed.
Soon, the car that was originally following them on the main road was pulled away from them.
However, the strange thing is that the vehicle that should have disappeared immediately after being discovered suddenly accelerated and at the same time started honking its horn desperately.
This section of the road is exactly where you need to turn to go to the Marshal's Mansion.
Logically speaking, the sentry post here is not too far away. How dare you be so blatant...
Leng Yiyao and Hemo turned back at the same time and glanced at the car.
Because it was already midnight, the surrounding light was not too bright, and the other party had the lights on because it was a little far away, so it was difficult to see anything from the opposite direction. However, listening to the anxious frequency of the other party's horn, it seemed that something was wrong!
"Stop!" Hemo said two words calmly.
Frey frowned, but did not dare to say anything. He slowly slowed down the car and pulled over to the side.
The car was flashing, and the three people in the car did not get out. They just waited quietly for the car behind to catch up.
Sure enough, after a while, a dark car also slowed down and stopped fifty meters behind them very disciplinedly.
A person hurriedly pushed down the door from the driver's seat and shouted from afar: "Leng, Miss Leng, something happened in the palace... something happened in the palace!"
When they heard that they were looking for Leng Yiyao, the three people in the car were stunned for a moment.
What's more, based on this title, it should be Lu Chen's person
Leng Yiyao frowned and looked back. The other person's facial features became clearer in the light and shadow. Soon, he ran to her car door in one breath. He was panting and holding up his pale face with a frightened expression. Look at her.
"Tell me carefully, what happened?" Leng Yiyao recognized that the man who chased after him while honking the car horn was Lu Chen's captain of the bodyguard. Logically speaking, since Guard Chief Lu is dead, he should have taken over most of the rights regarding the security of the palace. Why do you appear here in the middle of the night? She frowned, suddenly having a bad feeling.
"There's something big going on in the palace! His Highness has locked himself in the palace alone and doesn't see anyone. Please, come to the palace with me!"
After saying that, he knelt down directly at her feet. His forehead was pressed firmly to the ground, and his whole body was trembling.
Leng Yiyao looked at him quietly for a long time. A coldness flashed in her eyes. She lowered her eyes and said calmly: "What happened?"
The captain of the guard suddenly raised his head, glanced hesitantly at Hemo behind Leng Yiyao, gritted his teeth, and slowly turned his head.
"If you don't say anything, just kneel here. Frey, drive." Leng Yiyao sneered, asking for help, how dare you hide it? Okay, just don't say it, she's too lazy to deal with it.
The captain of the guard was caught off guard by her cold voice. Seeing Leng Yiyao about to close the car window, he no longer dared to hesitate: "It's your Majesty! Your Majesty, Your Majesty... I'm afraid... something bad..."
After saying the last three words, the tears that I had suppressed had already welled up in my eyes!
As bodyguards who have been trained by the royal family since childhood, nothing makes them more desperate than when their master and His Majesty the Emperor encounter unexpected events.
A flash of understanding flashed in Leng Yiyao's eyes.
Helmer glanced sideways at her, and sure enough, she was not surprised.
In fact, if we extrapolate from the death of Captain Lu, we can vaguely guess some clues at that time. If the emperor was not terminally ill, why would he sacrifice his loyal confidants just to pave the way for his son
Lu Chen has indeed matured a lot in a short period of time, changing his previous lazy and direct temperament, but how far is he from becoming a qualified heir to the throne
Oh, I'm afraid it's still a bit immature.
As long as the emperor's body can hold on, after the two princes are tripped, he should come back to take charge of the overall situation. However, for such a long time, the palace has been closed for rest, which itself explains the problem...
At the beginning, the imperial doctor rushed all the way to D City, but he was not completely pretentious. The emperor is really seriously ill...
Otherwise, Lu Ming's death would not have gone unnoticed. After all, he had to protect his eldest son's throne.
"I'm going to take a look." Leng Yiyao said softly to Hemo: "You just came back today and stayed with me for another day. Go back and rest first. I'll be back as soon as I go."
Leng Yiyao really thinks about him.
Hemer has been on a business trip since the last time he left. As soon as he returned home today, he immediately rushed to Shengde High School without stopping. He also accompanied her to the night market until now. Judging from the tiredness in the corners of his eyes, he must have not slept for at least two days. .
Lu Chen's side is a matter of the royal family. When the emperor was critically ill, when the news had not been announced to the public and was still in a private stage, his presence there as a leader of the military would easily lead to speculation.
Even considering his identity, he shouldn't be there at this time.
Hemo was silent for a while, then nodded slowly, "You should pay more attention to yourself."
On the royal family's side, although the two princes are no longer a threat, it does not mean that everything is calm and safe.
The eldest princess who was once favored, the eldest princess who was born from a princess from a neighboring country, and M who comes and goes like the wind playing the piano in the palace, no one is a simple character...
Leng Yiyao smiled and stopped joking with him at this time: "Don't worry, I have my mobile phone with me and I will call you if I need anything."
Even though the captain of the guard, who was kneeling on the ground, was already impatient, he did not dare to rush at this moment.
He still remembered the deathly grayness in His Highness's eyes when he left the palace. He also remembered the cold profiles of the princesses and the darkness in their eyes in the noisy palace. At this moment, he was forced to tremble all over, but he couldn't restrain himself. Just like when he was chased and intercepted all the way back to the Imperial Capital from D City, this kind of anxiety, as if he was in water and fire, made it impossible for him to even breathe calmly for a long time.
After Leng Yiyao said goodbye to Hemo, she got out of the car and glanced at him: "Get up and go drive!"
His heavy breathing suddenly stopped. The captain of the guard raised his head and looked at her with tears of joy, as if looking up to a god: "Thank you! Thank you Miss Leng!"
He knew that everything he did today was like hanging his head on his neck!
Anyone who dares to chase the marshal's vehicle privately is punishable by death!
If it weren't for Miss Leng, if it weren't for her... .
"If you're grateful, wait until I get to the palace." Leng Yiyao didn't say much. In this world, kneeling to people and gods seems to be a normal thing, but she still doesn't like this scene.
She is not a savior, nor is she a god or Buddha who can save all sentient beings.
On the contrary, sometimes, she is scarier than anyone else...
Leng Yiyao raised her chin lightly and got into the captain's car. In the dark night, the car sped along, and it took almost half the time to reach the brightly lit palace!
Leng Yiyao stood at the entrance, looking at the golden palace that was patrolling back and forth and heavily guarded. She lowered her eyes, smiled erratically, and stepped up the steps step by step...
Lu Chen's head guard opened the way. In addition, Leng Yiyao had appeared several times in the palace before, and everyone knew that she was a person that His Highness paid close attention to, so the journey was smooth.
When she stood at the door of Lu Chen's bedroom, she found that many people were already staying here.
The first one is naturally Lu Chen's father, the emperor's concubine.
Secondly, there is the worried wet nurse. She has not been seen for a few days, and there seem to be more wrinkles on her face. At this moment, with her head lowered, she is muttering there alone, as if she is reciting some mantra, probably to appease people's hearts. of. Leng Yiyao also remembered that this person was more advocating Eastern mysticism, which, to put it bluntly, was similar to feudal superstition.
There is also a little princess.
She didn't expect this.
Logically speaking, at this time, she should obviously be guarding the door of the emperor's palace. Why did she come to her brother's side
When the princess saw her, her expression was startled. When she saw the captain of the guard beside her, she realized why Leng Yiyao came to the palace. However, the anger in her heart drove her crazy! She was so angry that she casually hit a gold object behind her on the head of the guard captain. With a "bang" sound, a hole suddenly opened!
The captain of the guard immediately knelt down and let the blood from the corner of his head flow on the ground. From beginning to end, he did not explain a word.
Indeed, disclosing the emperor's condition privately, both publicly and privately, is a serious crime!
He didn't argue because from the moment he left the palace and went to find Leng Yiyao, he was already ready to commit suicide.
But, now is not the time!
"Princess, please have mercy and let Miss Leng go in to persuade His Highness! If you don't go to His Majesty's place, I'm afraid I won't even be able to catch up with you for the last time!" He closed his eyes tightly and grabbed the ground with his head, letting the blood flow freely. , a tough man, but he was already crying.
The princess bit her lips, her expression changed again and again, but she remained silent.
At this time, the little princess threw herself at her side: "Please, please, let Leng Yiyao meet the imperial brother! If it's too late, my father will be too late!"
The princess was trembling with rage!
The son she had raised with so much hard work was actually shut down and she didn't even see her. But they didn't think Leng Yiyao could persuade him to change his mind!
His father, how could he be sorry for him! For so many years, no matter how people outside praised Lu Ming, that little kid, they always cherished him. Now, he was so sick that he had only one breath left, but he was so brain-stricken that he refused to see his father for the last time! Do you still want the throne? Do you still want fame? Do you want his face
"Go! You all go! I don't care anymore! I can't control this traitor!" The princess was so angry that she tore the bead string on Lu Chen's wet nurse's hand to pieces and threw it to the ground.
The beads were scattered, and all the guards and slaves guarding the door knelt down. Everyone turned pale with fright, except Leng Yiyao, who stood quietly and looked at everything indifferently.
At this moment, the door suddenly opened from the inside.
"Creak" - leaving only a gap...
This voice seemed to be taken away from the princess's face alive, and her expression was almost deformed. For a long time, she pointed at the door with trembling fingers. For a long time, she never calmed down.
The next moment, she turned around and rushed directly towards the emperor's palace!
Everyone in the entire palace wanted to gather around the emperor, but this treacherous son refused to listen, see, speak, or leave. He wanted to trample on the hard-earned advantage under his feet, and let everyone who knew about it scold him for his ignorance. Loyal and filial
"Sister Leng, please go in, please go in quickly!" The little princess was already crying until she couldn't help herself. Just two hours ago, her father, who had been seriously ill, was suddenly able to get up. Before everyone could be happy, his father dismissed them. Everyone summoned Brother Lu Chen alone. In the palace, they didn't know what was said, but they heard the sound of smashing things. She stood closest, and the sound of crystal cracking could clearly be heard coming from inside. She guessed that it was her father's favorite crystal cup.
My father rarely loses his temper. After becoming seriously ill, he has always been weak.
She didn't know who actually broke the crystal cup, but if it was really her brother, she simply couldn't imagine what her father said.
Soon, the elder brother walked out of his father's palace with a bleak look on his face.
Immediately, the imperial doctor behind him rushed to his father's palace and exclaimed!
Not long after, my father's mental state plummeted and he began to fall into coma.
All the doctors of the royal family are now gathered in the palace, but there is no way!
However, since my brother came out, he has been cumbersome in the palace, staying behind closed doors. Don't listen to anyone!
The eldest princess and the eldest sister were already guarding their father's door, their expressions so ugly that they almost wanted to accuse him! But my brother still insists on having his own way.
She could understand why the captain of the guard was so reckless and leaked royal secrets to Leng Yiyao, because at this moment, apart from her, they could no longer think of anyone else...
Leng Yiyao slowly exhaled and looked at the crack in the open door quietly.
It was pitch black inside, and apparently there wasn't a single light in someone's room.
She walked over slowly and opened the door.
The difference in light between indoors and outdoors made her eyes squint involuntarily.
Soon, as she got closer and closer, her eyes gradually adapted to the dim light.
In front of the huge bed, a man was sitting quietly by the window, as if he was in a trance.
He looked out the window blankly, but his eyes were unfocused.
His whole body was as stiff as iron, and he just sat like that, as if he would last forever.
Her footsteps were so light that she made almost no sound as they landed on the blanket on the ground.
He seemed not to notice at all, sitting there silently, lost in thought.
This has never looked like him...
Leng Yiyao frowned.
He still remembered his surprised and angry expression at the masquerade when his two uncles openly insinuated that his father had stolen the throne in front of the guests.
I also remember the sarcasm and anger between his brows when everyone suspected that he had killed the imperial doctor and hid the body in the secret palace.
However, all this is completely different from his current expression.
He seemed to be frozen all of a sudden.
Whether it's the expression or the heart!
"What happened?" She slowly sat next to him and quietly looked at the starlight and moonlit night with him. The voice was calm, without any urgency.
Lu Chen stared stiffly into the distance and said nothing. However, at this moment, he was holding onto the mattress with both hands, as if trying to suppress something.
"If your father dies but you still stay here, do you know what news will be heard outside?"
Although they have only met once, the eldest princess is by no means a simple "marriage princess". Although the two most virtuous and respected grand dukes in the royal family have been eliminated, this does not mean that there are no other royal children. Copying a puppet and controlling things behind the scenes is simply the best intention of a female politician.
She didn't believe it. Lu Chen couldn't understand such a simple truth.
I don't even understand why he would do such a stupid thing when he was already on the verge of death!
Even if the emperor said something outrageous while he was ill, he still had to endure it with a smile, as if "thunder, rain, and dew are all a blessing"! Instead of keeping a straight face like this!
"Hehe-hehe-hehehe-"
In the dark room, there was suddenly a burst of nervous laughter.
The laughter, from a whisper-like sound at the beginning, to an uncontrollable sound later, as if the whole person was going crazy.
Leng Yiyao could feel the bed surface shaking.
Not only because Lu Chen was laughing, but also because he was shaking uncontrollably.
He suddenly lowered his face and put it into his palm, as if he didn't want her to see any of his expressions.
After a long time, the laughter turned into ridicule, that kind of sharp, painful, desperate, subversive...
She never knew that someone as simple as Lu Chen would one day make such a complicated sound.
In front of her, he was simple and straightforward. Later, he encountered setbacks and gradually became more cautious, but he could still see clearly. But at this moment, she suddenly discovered that this man was so desperate that he could not even talk to a person. There is no ability to tell the truth.
He hides a secret in his heart that no one knows except His Majesty the Emperor.
If he fails to cross this threshold, after the emperor's death, he will be accused of being unfilial and disrespectful, and will be completely pulled down by the princess, and will never see the throne again. Then everything before is in vain!
"I don't care what stimulation you received, whether you were beaten severely by your father or bewitched by something, I just want to ask you a question. Do you want the throne or not?"
Leng Yiyao didn't look at him again, but still stared out the window.
Monsters and ghosts are already causing trouble.
This insidious palace is devouring people's hearts.
Look, the emperor is already sick, and so many forces in the dark are ready to take action. Why bother saying anything to him. She only asked him if he wanted it or not!
"Yes!" Lu Chen suddenly raised his head, his eyes filled with scarlet red!
He stared straight into the distance, his eyes seemed to be burning red!
Why not!
He was defeated by Cheng Huan, and finally suffered a head-on blow! He thought that his father finally woke up and that they could return to the peaceful days before, but it turned out that everything was just a dream!
In that case, why not!
It's what he deserves and what he deserves!
"Since you want to, why are you still here?" Leng Yiyao turned her head, and at this moment, she finally looked into his eyes, "Are you going to let the princess continue to fight with you on her own, or are you going to let other people take advantage of the opportunity? Continue to fan the flames? You, the Lu family dynasty, are not as powerful as you think!"
This sentence was like the last thunder that exploded across the plain!
I don’t know why, but suddenly there was a strong wind outside the house!
The strong wind blew the palace windows back and forth!
It hit the wall with a "pop-pop-pop" sound, but it seemed to hit him in the face.
Lu Chen suddenly stood up with his legs, and without any further hesitation, he rushed out of the room and rushed in the direction where his mother disappeared just now.
Outside the door, the little princess almost collapsed on the ground!
The head of the guard looked like he was going to live in a disaster...
Leng Yiyao slowly walked out of Lu Chen's bedroom and sneered: "Why are you still standing there? Hurry and go to the emperor!"
The two of them came to their senses and hurriedly turned around and ran away without any further instructions from her.
Outside the window, Lu Chen's wet nurse knelt down thinking of the crescent moon: "Thank you God for blessing! Thank you God for blessing!"
Leng Yiyao strolled past her without even looking at her...
On the emperor's side, the imperial doctors were so anxious that they almost exploded into a pot of porridge.
The eldest princess was so angry that she even ignored the most important manners she usually paid attention to: "Why are you all standing there dumbly! Your Majesty is crying out in pain! You are all deaf! Can't you hear me?"
"... it hurts..." "... it hurts..." "... it hurts..."
Weak voices repeated themselves by the window, but the person on the bed had fallen into a coma and had no clear consciousness at all.
All the imperial doctors had sweat on their faces and bodies, but no one dared to use medicine casually.
This, His Majesty has obviously been suffering from a high fever for days, and his brain has been burned out. The most important thing is that their previous drug test also found that His Majesty had taken heavy drugs before, probably to suppress some kind of illness, otherwise, he would not have been so sick and so menacing!
"Where is that traitor? He still refuses to come?"
The eldest princess looked at Lu Chen's biological mother coldly: "What on earth did he say to His Majesty just now? His Majesty was so angry that he just walked away! What? He is the only one who has decided to take the throne. He has inherited it, right? He has made up his mind not to care about his father’s life or death!”
Every sentence is heart-breaking!
Every word, crucify people on the pillar of shame!
If even the slightest hint of these words of the eldest princess were exposed, Lu Chen's position, let alone keeping his position, would be completely overturned!
"My eldest princess, I respect you so much that I never talk back to you! But please be careful what you say! No one knows what His Majesty Zhao Chen'er just said! Don't talk nonsense!"
"Why did I talk so blindly? Everyone saw your son walking out with a sullen face. His Majesty suddenly fell into a coma after gasping for breath! If it wasn't your son, who else could it be! Why, because your son is now the only prince, now You don’t even take me seriously anymore?”
"Shut up!" Just when the princess's voice became colder and more aggressive, Lu Chen suddenly appeared at the door!
With a cold shout, not to mention the eldest princess, even the eldest princess couldn't help but look back at her in surprise.
As far as all of them could remember, Lu Chen had never been someone who could speak in such a cold tone. What happened to him today
Lu Chen ignored everyone's shocked looks and suddenly threw himself in front of the window.
The doctors were so frightened that they quickly backed away and gave him their seats by the window.
His Majesty the Emperor was still repeating the word in a low voice: "... it hurts..." "... it hurts..." "... it hurts..."
It seemed that he was unconscious and he only remembered using this word to express his emotions.
Lu Chen got closer and found that his father's mouth was already gray... and even the corners of his eyes were no longer angry...
My heart hurts so much that I don't even want to say anything, but now that things have happened, I have to say it.
"I know that I have an impulsive temper and a bad personality, but don't worry, I will take good care of everyone. You have been thinking about the palace all your life, and I will learn to take care of it and not let you down..."
The eldest princess opened her mouth and was about to sneer, but was interrupted by her daughter beside her. The eldest princess shook her head at her almost invisible.
If Lu Chen doesn't show up, that's it. There is no way to guide the direction of the wind too much. But now that people are here, it doesn't make much sense to say anything else.
Lu Chen could have just said "heartbroken" and summed up everything just now. He was young and impulsive and couldn't bear to see his father's crippled hospital bed. Even if he said this, it sounded a bit specious, but after all, others came to the bedside, and it was up to him to see if his father could wake up now...
The eldest princess gritted her teeth and clasped her palms tightly with both hands, almost making them bleed!
Just a little bit closer!
Just a little bit different!
If only he comes later! Or, the emperor would have taken a step earlier!
However, now, the most important thing is whether the emperor can make Lu Chen get his wish...
If the two father and son really had a falling out just now...
The eldest princess couldn't help but still have hope.
But at this moment, the emperor, who had been unconscious, didn't know if he heard the voice of the journey, but he slowly opened his eyes.
At that moment, his eyes lost focus and went blank, as if there was nothing in front of him.
Without his beloved eldest son, without his own wife, without his own daughter, without his courtiers kneeling all over the floor, everything is completely white...
However, he stretched out his right hand as if to grab something.
Lu Chen slowly supported him.
The fingers on their thumbs touched together, and His Majesty the Emperor suddenly stopped struggling...
The corner of his mouth seemed to gently curl up into a smile. The smile was a little dazed, and seemed a little happy: "You are finally back..."
"Well, Father, I was scared just now and I spoke too hastily. Don't take it to heart." Lu Chen lowered his head, tears in his eyes fell on his wrists, making their fingertips wet.
The emperor smiled and seemed not to take it to heart. He just sighed slightly: "I know you can't accept it for the moment."
Lu Chen held his hand tightly, holding back his hoarse voice, unable to say a word.
The emperor seemed a little helpless and shook his head gently: "I know, I know everything. Don't cry, there is nothing to cry about. You are my son and the one who will inherit my throne."
"
After he said this, he breathed for a long time, as if he had exhausted all his strength.
In the bedroom, it was suddenly so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
The eldest princess's face suddenly stiffened, and the eldest princess walked behind her calmly at this time, forcing herself to support her shaky body!
Everyone could clearly hear that the emperor was already giving his last words! Moreover, in front of everyone, he announced the ownership of the throne!
He prefers Lu Chen as his heir, and this has never changed!
Lu Chen clenched his father's hand tightly, as if he wanted to say something, but when he opened his mouth, the tears in the corners of his eyes could no longer be stopped.
Is the hero he has respected for so many years and the father he has loved for so many years now critically ill
"There's no need to cry, everyone will die. I've been prepared for it a long time ago." The emperor smiled, as if relieved: "After all, it's still not too late."
After saying that, he seemed to use all his strength to take off the ring on his thumb and handed it to Lu Chen's palm, "Remember my words..."
