Chapter 311: One More Year
Chapter 311 One more year
“Father, what’s the matter with you?” Jun Ning asked in confusion as she walked to Emperor Yongning.
Emperor Yongning touched Jun Ning’s head, and the words the imperial physician just said were echoing in his mind.
“Holy Majesty, the Empress Dowager’s illness not only did not improve, but also worsened, and just had another attack. If this continues, even if she is hung with the best medicine in the palace, the Empress Dowager will only last for a year at most.”
“Please make plans early in the morning.”
Emperor Yongning’s hand hidden in his sleeve trembled, but there was no emotion on his face.
He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, took Jun Ning who had walked in front of him into his arms, and said in a low voice that couldn’t be more low: “One by one, I’ll go back later, go see your imperial grandmother, you Grandma misses you.”
“Father, but what happened to the grandmother?” Jun Ning said, “Father, you don’t look the same as usual.”
Emperor Yongning really wanted to tell Jun Ning the truth about the Queen Mother’s condition. However, what’s the use of talking about it, it only adds to a person’s sadness. It is better not to say.
“I’m fine, my father is just blinded by the wind and sand, and my eyes are a little uncomfortable.” Emperor Yongning said and rubbed his eyes.
Jun Ning: “…”
The nonsense of wind and sand with charming eyes has always been a lie.
What’s more, now that they are in the house, where is the wind and sand?
Contacting the expression on the expression of the father and the words that the father said, Jun Ning vaguely guessed something, but she was not sure, she needed to confirm it herself before she dared to recognize it.
“Okay, Father, I’ll go to see the grandmother with you when it’s over.”
“Your imperial grandmother will be very happy to see you.” Emperor Yongning said, sniffing, “By the way, you won this Cuju competition, and now you can make conditions with the father, say, what do you want? What? As long as it’s not too much, the royal father will satisfy you.”
“Isn’t the excessive father and emperor not satisfied with the sons and ministers?” Jun Ning asked, pinching Emperor Yongning’s face.
“To what extent have you looked at it?” Emperor Yongning thought for a moment and said, “For example, if you make unreasonable requests such as murder and arson, the father cannot agree to you. Because the father is the king of a country, and all the people in the world are the sons of the father. People, the sword in the father’s hand cannot be swung at one’s own people.”
“My son won’t ask for murder and arson.”
“Then tell me, what do you want?”
“Jingshu has been away from the palace for a long time. I want to see Jingshu.” Jun Ning looked at Emperor Yongning pitifully and said, “My good father, can you agree to this?”
Emperor Yongning did not refuse. He was silent for a while and said, “Yes, but it will take a year.”
“Why a year later?” Jun Ning didn’t understand.
Emperor Yongning did not explain.
After the Cuju competition was completely announced, Emperor Yongning took Jun Ning’s hand and went to Cining Palace to visit the Queen Mother and her old man.
After the Queen Mother took the medicine, her spirit was barely better.
Originally, with her current physical condition, she needed to rest in bed and not work anymore. But she couldn’t sleep, and she didn’t want to lie down all the time.
She got up again to help Jun Ning embroider her wedding dress.
Jun Ning felt that her wedding dress had been embroidered for her by the imperial grandmother for a long time, but it had never been embroidered well.
Seeing that the emperor’s grandmother’s eyes were red because of this, Jun Ning stepped forward and snatched the needle, thread, and clothing from the queen mother’s hand, “Imperial grandmother, I’m only eight years old now, not even nine years old, it’s still too early to get married. Now, you don’t have to rush to embroider the wedding dress for each one.”
