C10 Strange Dreams

Lih Chu had a dream. It was weird and real. She was like a ghost, looking at the girl who looked exactly like her in the fog.

In the dream, the girl who looked exactly like her was the princess of the Da Qi Empire, the only heir to the Empire.

In the thirteen years of the Cloud Dynasty, Emperor Xi had suddenly contracted an illness and stayed ill all day long. All the major and minor matters were left to the sole emperor of the empire, Ji Xihe, to handle. The Grand Tutor, Pei Hann, assisted from the side. Emperor Xi, who had always been healthy and healthy, was bedridden. Everyone in and out of the Imperial Court was in a panic. Fortunately, Emperor Ji was naturally intelligent and the Grand Tutor was outstanding. The affairs of the Imperial Court were handled in an orderly manner, and the officials gradually calmed down.

However, the good days did not last long. Emperor Xi's illness suddenly worsened, and he even recalled Marquis Ding Yuan, who was far away in the southern territory. If Emperor Xi wanted Marquis Ding Yuan to assist the new Emperor, the power in the Imperial Court would probably be reshuffled. For a time, the capital was in a precarious situation. Everyone was afraid that they would stand on the wrong side during this sensitive period where the old and new alternated, and anger the future true rulers.

Within Taihe Palace.

The young Emperor Ji Xi and Emperor Xi tucked the quilt away and looked at the white hair on his father's head. When did the strong husband start to become weak? He could even lift himself above his head when he was young. Why were so many wrinkles crawling all over his father's face? His mother had said that his father was extremely handsome when he was young. Why is he now weakly lying on the bed like a withered and fragrant tree?

His eyes were wet. As the outside world said, he didn't fall ill overnight. The death of his brother the year before had caused him to fall ill. He didn't know why, but he had fallen ill in the past few days. His father suddenly fell ill and fell into a coma. He didn't leave any words except for the order to summon Ding Yuanhou before he fell into a coma.

Lih Chu looked at that almost identical face and fell into deep thought. It turned out that no matter if it was in a dream or in reality, they did not have a good fate.

A cloak was placed on her shoulder and a slightly tired voice sounded, "Di Ji has already endured for two days. It's time to go and rest." Xi He looked up and saw Su Yu's slightly bloodshot eyes. He was a little absent-minded. His father had been unconscious for such a long time. "Go and rest quickly. I will take care of this place."

The young man pursed his lips. "How can His Highness not cherish his body so much? He doesn't know that the national affairs today depend on His Highness. If His Highness' body collapses, I'm afraid the hope of the world will be gone."

Xi He was silent for a moment. She knew very well that although the courtiers had praised her greatly these past few days, she still felt that she did not have the great strategy of ruling the country like her elder brother did. If not for the Grand Tutor's assistance, many things would not have gone so smoothly.

Lih Chu understood that so what if there were more than ten thousand people under one person? The burden that Xi He had to bear must be very heavy.

"Haven't you contacted the Grand Tutor yet?" When he heard that his father was unconscious, the first person Xi He thought of was Pei Hann. However, Pei Hann had asked him to go to Dianzhou to treat the flood a few days ago.

It seemed like this Grand Tutor was Lih Chu's confidant. Lih Chu was deep in thought.

The scene changed. It was the scene before Pei Hann left.

Before he left, Xi He stood under the pear blossom tree and looked at him quietly. Pei Hann's eyes were gentle, "Your Highness, do not worry. This official will be back in a month at most."

Wait, why does this Pei Hann look so similar...

Lin Mo!

Oh my god, Lih Chu covered her face helplessly. What was going on? Did she have to remember the awkward things that happened during the day in her dreams?

Xi He's expression was sickly and he could not hide the uneasiness in his heart, "Tutor, without you, those national affairs, I... I can't handle it well. I'm afraid... "

His face appears more and more gentle under the contrast of the pear blossoms. His appearance is like that of an orchid or jade tree. "Your Highness, don't be afraid." Pei Hann held her thin shoulder. Xi He couldn't help but blush. Perhaps it was because they were about to leave. Pei Hann treated her like a king for the first time. "Your Highness is the best student I have ever taught." There seemed to be spring water flowing in his eyes, "Your Highness took over the responsibility of your brother and was soon praised by the courtiers. You have already done well enough."

Lih Chu silently thought in her heart that this gentleness was quite similar to that person.

Xihe looked at him hesitantly. She did not believe him. After all, she had to ask Pei Hann about the important matters in the past few days before she dared to write all the memorials of the courtiers.

"Your Highness must remember," Pei Hann said with a smile. He seemed to have seen through her thoughts. "It is good to ask the opinions of the courtiers. But His Highness is going to rule the world in the future, so he makes his decision. "Yes, Your Majesty." When he spoke of these power schemes, he became serious in the end. It was as if he was teaching her a lesson." Even if he is a subject, You cannot influence His Majesty's decision."

Xi He nodded as if he did not understand what Pei Hann meant. Pei Hann then said, "Yes, Your Majesty." Besides, I'm afraid that you won't be able to receive the letters you sent during the turmoil in the Yunnan Province. You'll have to learn to make your own decisions." You're the assistant minister of the Ministry of Finance and the Minister of Rites. They will definitely help you. "As for the Prime Minister, although he's a bit old-fashioned, he's a decent man who thinks for you."

Xi He thought of the old man who kept glaring at him. He was a little unhappy. Last time, because of Su Yu, the Prime Minister was very angry. In the end, it was she who invited him to kneel in the temple hall.

"Your Highness," Pei Hann understood what Bai Xihe was thinking. "Su Yu is just a servant. If you like him, Your Highness," his voice was very soft. "You can praise him as a servant. There is no need to offend the Prime Minister for him like this."

Prince Rui had taken a liking to Su Yu the last time he entered the palace. He wanted Su Yu to go home with him, but Su Yu didn't want to. He didn't expect Su Yu to beat him up in anger. He was worried, so he asked the guards to beat him 30 times to vent his anger for Su Yu.

To her, this was a righteous act, but in the eyes of the prime minister, it was a righteous act. For the sake of a lowly servant, Prince Rui Wang was injured. Relying on his status as a princess, he didn't put the Imperial Family's relatives in his eyes.

Xi He's heart skipped a beat. He felt that something had quietly shattered. It turned out that Pei Hann didn't think exactly the same as him. Everything he did was from the perspective of a qualified person in power. It turned out that she wouldn't be able to get rid of the responsibilities of an Emperor Ji once she left the Imperial Reading Room. She would always be an Emperor Ji. Even if he left the Imperial Palace, every move he made would be a matter of state. Dealing with state affairs was to take care of the overall situation. How could she deal with it casually because of her own personal preferences?

Her voice trembled. "I see. I understand now. Tutor, please leave. I won't see you off." Pei Hann felt a little depressed when he saw her addressing him as' Gu '. He had taught her for nine years. This was the first time she addressed him as' Gu '. However, there were some things that would change as she ascended to the throne. He cupped his hands and left without saying anything.
