MTL - Dianxia Qingcheng-Chapter 198 go to sleep, sweetheart

In the past few days, the army of the Celestial Dynasty, which had been retreating steadily, suddenly cheered up, and seized two cities one after another under the fierce barbarians.

When the news reached the court, everyone was ecstatic, and several ministers were in tears.

Only Pei Zheng seemed too calm amid the celebratory sound, and his expression even became more solemn.

The 50,000 troops of the Celestial Dynasty were able to repel 20,000 barbarians, and the losses were heavy. This is definitely not something worth celebrating.

In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Li Yu happily ran to tell Qi Changyi the news. Qi Changyi was sitting on the stone bench in the back garden, teasing with the little black cat in his arms.

After hearing the news, Qi Changyi happily hugged the kitten and turned around twice, frightened Li Yu to call out, "Your Highness! Your Highness, don't turn around, don't fall!"

Qi Changyi put the kitten down, and his stomach was slightly bulging. The whole Prime Minister's Mansion watched him cautiously every day, fearing that he would bump into him.

"Little Yuzi," Qi Changyi took Li Yu's arm, "you say, will Brother Pei come back earlier today?"

Speaking of which, Pei Zheng was busy with political affairs. When he came back every night, Qi Changyi had already fallen asleep. When he left in the morning, Qi Changyi was often still awake, so Qi Changyi had not been able to talk to Pei Zheng for several days. talk.

Li Yu hesitated, "This, this"

In fact, he still has something to tell His Highness.

There was news from the palace that the emperor's health was deteriorating, and it seemed that he couldn't hold on for long. Therefore, just this morning, an imperial decree announced the candidate of the prince in front of all the ministers.

It was none other than the Fourth Prince Qi Changfeng.

Seeing Qi Changyi's implicitly smiling eyes looking at him with hope, Li Yu gritted his teeth and told the story of the fourth prince being established as the prince.

Qi Changyi blinked, as if he didn't care much about this matter.

Li Yu said again, "Yes, it was the Lord who tried his best to support His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, and the Emperor had no way of establishing the Fourth Prince."

It's Brother Pei. Does Brother Pei want the fourth brother to be the emperor? But what brother Pei knew, not long ago, the fourth brother had almost died because of the emperor's disregard for his own safety.

Qi Changyi felt a dull and uncomfortable feeling in his heart, and slowly let go of Li Yu's hand, and sat back on the stone bench again, holding his arms and staring blankly into the distance.

Seeing His Highness's unhappy appearance, Li Yu immediately regretted telling His Highness these things, but even he who was onlookers could feel that there was something wrong with the adults who were so busy lately.

After dinner, Pei Zheng has not come back.

Qi Changyi lay down on the bed by himself, staring blankly at the bed curtain above his head, the loss of his eyes could not be concealed, he clutched the quilt tightly, huddled under the quilt, closed his eyes and wanted to fall asleep quickly, because he wanted to. Sleep well for your baby to rest well.

The night gradually deepened, and there was some noise from the door of the small building, and it was suddenly pushed open.

The little man on the bed was still not asleep when he heard the footsteps of someone approaching. He got a little scared, opened his eyes wide and looked into the darkness, and asked aloud, "Little, Xiao Yuzi, is that you?"

The dark tall figure walked to the bed, and the dim moonlight reflected the man's cut chin.

"it's me."

Pei Zheng's voice was low, raised his hand and took off his robe, and then got into bed.

A body with a scalding heat slid into the quilt. Pei Zheng thought that the little man had fallen asleep, so he planned to hold him to sleep quietly for a while, but he didn't expect that as soon as he lay in the quilt, the warm and soft beside him The hot little body leaned over, clinging to his arm greedily, and a pair of arms wrapped around his waist.

"Brother Pei, why did you come back so late?"

"There is something in the palace," Pei Zheng said lightly, "Go to sleep."

Qi Changyi rubbed his small cheek against his arm, "Brother Pei, Brother Pei, Brother Pei"

Pei Zheng turned his body slightly, the heat that Qi Changyi was holding suddenly moved away, and he immediately posted it again in dissatisfaction.

"Brother Pei, I, I am today"

"Shh." Pei Zheng didn't avoid him anymore, but stretched out his arms to wrap him in his arms, resting his chin on his head, not looking at his clear eyes.

"It's too late, I won't talk about it today, go to sleep, darling."

Qi Changyi obediently stopped asking, no matter what Brother Pei does, he must have his reasons, and he should believe him.

"Okay, Brother Pei, have a good rest and have a good dream."

"Um"

Qi Changyi blinked at Pei Zhenghuai, and when he waited behind him, it was a pity that there was no other movement above his head.

Qi Changyi pursed his lips, well, Brother Pei must be very tired, so let him sleep well first.

I closed my eyes together, and my breath was filled with the familiar and pleasant smell of sandalwood, which made people feel reassured and at the same time became more obsessed and dependent.

Such a warm embrace, such an intimate distance, such an unparalleled person in the world, is his brother Pei.

Finally feeling sleepy, Qi Changyi fell into a deep sleep in Pei Zheng's arms.

I didn't know how long I slept, only to know that the sky outside was far from light, and the door of the small building was knocked eagerly.

"My lord! My lord!"

Li Yu was about to break into the door in a hurry, but he continued to knock on the door regardless, the urgent matter could not allow him to worry any more.

A gloomy and depressed voice finally came from inside, "Come in."

Li Yu pushed open the door and rushed in, knelt down straight, and knocked his head on the ground.

"My lord! Someone from the palace invites you to enter the palace, saying that it is the emperor, the emperor is about to die."

Pei Zheng sat up from the bed at once, took the robe next to him, put it on, and got up to leave.

The little man on the bed was also woken up. He also heard Li Yu's words, and his eyes immediately became wet. He followed him and got off the bed, and almost fell without standing. Fortunately, Pei Zheng stretched out his hand and fished it in. arms.

Pei Zheng carried him back to the bed, then turned around and walked towards the door.

"Brother Pei!" The little man behind him cried, "I, I want to go with you."

"no."

Pei Zheng's tone was a little heavy, with a hint of indifference, "You wait here, I will let someone come back [report] if there is news."

"Brother Pei" two lines of hot tears fell from the corners of Shui Yingying's eyes, "I, I want to go see the emperor, can I beg you, please let me go

look at the father"

Pei Zheng didn't speak any more, he went straight past Li Yu, who was kneeling, and walked to the door. Before he stepped out, he heard a faint, suppressed cry, probably because he was afraid of being heard. The quilt came out.

Sobbing and sobbing, like hot tears dripping into Pei Zheng's heart.

Li Yu felt a figure beside him folded back and went back to the bed.

Qi Changyi was still sitting on the bed, pulling up the quilt to cover his head, and suddenly felt that the quilt was being pulled off, revealing a small face full of tears.

Pei Zheng put a robe on the little man on the bed, picked him up, and walked out of the room steadily.

Sitting on the carriage that was rushing to the palace, the little man in his arms was shaking non-stop, and his tears could not be stopped as if the embankment had burst.

Pei Zheng hugged him and touched his hair from time to time, otherwise he would kiss his little face, but it still didn't work, the little man was still so sad that he could barely control himself.

"Father and Father"

Qi Changyi's slender and thick eyelashes were covered with a series of teardrops, which fell ticking in the blink of an eye. He murmured, "You can't leave Yi'er if you don't have anything to do"

Finally arrived in the palace, rushed to the outside of the palace where the emperor lived.

In the middle of the night, the inside and outside of the palace were brightly lit. The bluestone slabs outside were filled with people from Wuyang and Wuyang, and all the military officials of the dynasty were here.

The door of the bedroom just opened, and a person came out, it was Qi Changfeng who had just been established as the prince.

"His Royal Highness, how is the emperor?" an official asked anxiously.

Qi Changfeng raised his eyes and shook his head, his eyes were red, his cuffs were clenched tightly, and he saw Pei Zheng and Qi Changyi standing on the steps.

The little man cried with tears in his eyes, looking very distressed.

Qi Changfeng walked up to him and said softly, "Chang Yi, I'm sorry"

Qi Changyi's tears suddenly flowed more violently, he closed his eyes, and was reluctant to deal with Qi Changfeng.

Qi Changfeng pursed his lips, "Father, I want to see you, go in."

Pei Zheng glanced at the present Prince, nodded slightly, and walked into the palace with Qi Changyi.

After passing through the screen and curtain, he came to the inner hall. The emperor was lying weakly on the dragon couch, looking up at the top of his head, his eyes blinking very slowly, as if every stroke would be exhausted.

As soon as Qi Changyi saw the person on the bed, he couldn't hold back the sadness that he could no longer control. He went to kneel beside the bed, held the emperor's hand, and cried and shouted, "Father, Huangfu, Huang, I am Yi. Son, look at me, I'm Yi'er"

The emperor blinked twice, as if he heard someone calling him, but his neck was powerless to turn.

"Yi, yes, Yi'er, are you here?"

Qi Changyi held the emperor's hand and touched his cheek, and nodded desperately, "Yes, it's me, the emperor, what's wrong with you, are you playing with Yi'er, get well soon, Don't scare Yi'er anymore, okay?"

All his tears fell on the emperor's hand, soaking the back of the old and thin hand.

Pei Zheng supported him beside him, hugged him and carried him to the side of the bed to sit.

The ground in this bedroom was so cold that his body would not be able to stand it after kneeling for a long time.

The emperor saw Pei Zheng, his eyes widened slightly, and his emotions became a little excited. He opened his mouth for a long time, but he couldn't say a word smoothly, and the words seemed to be backlogged in his throat.

Pei Zheng stood up straight and bowed respectfully to the emperor beside the bed.

He thought, he knew what the emperor was going to say.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, since the minister has made an oath, he will definitely die."
