Chapter 230: Token Companion Moon Villa
Chapter 230: Token Companion Moon Villa
Hearing this obviously weak voice, Qi You raised his eyes, and the sadness in his eyes was gone. He looked at Emperor Jingyuan with admiration, trying to make his face look better, and he said softly, "Grandfather."
Holding Qi You's hand, Emperor Jingyuan smiled, "Why are you frowning? I'm not going to die yet."
Seeing this, Qi You could only smile and nod, "Of course, our royal grandfather will live to be a hundred years old." As he said this, he covered Emperor Jingyuan with the quilt that had slipped off.
The grandfather and grandson only talked for a few words before Qi You lied that he was sleepy and wanted to rest. In fact, he spoke only when he saw the fatigue on Emperor Jingyuan's face becoming more and more serious.
"Okay, my dear grandson, go and have some rest." He was indeed a little tired.
"Okay, Grandfather, you should have a good rest. Your grandson will come to see you again tomorrow." Qi You said softly, looking at Emperor Jingyuan's tired face.
"Yeah." Emperor Jingyuan watched Qi You leave before lying down and closing his eyes to rest.
Li Jin has been waiting by the side.
Over the next two days, Emperor Jingyuan's health began to improve.
When this news spread, the undercurrents in the court seemed to calm down a little.
Qi You didn't go to class for the past two days. As long as his grandfather was free, he would go to accompany him, play chess or read to him. He was in good spirits and could even show him a few sets of boxing and some long tassel spear moves. He always liked to talk about when he was young and fought on the battlefield. He also said that if there was a chance, he would take him to the desert to see the scenery which was completely different from that of Dajing. Qi You smiled and nodded, but he was very uneasy in his heart, and sometimes he couldn't help but secretly redden his eyes.
He had seen many separations and deaths. When a person is about to die, they will have a period of vitality, but when that vitality is completely gone, that is...
Qi You understood that there would always be separations in life, but when separation was really imminent, he always felt uncontrollably sad.
In the past few days, Prince Rui was often called into Chengqian Palace and stayed there for several hours. This made the ministers in the court secretly wonder whether His Majesty had chosen His Royal Highness Prince Rui.
Prince Su also had the same idea as the other civil and military officials in the court. He had been unable to sleep or eat in the past few days. He even made the worst-case scenario and had started preparing in private. If the result was really what he thought, he would not mind killing the obstacle that stood in his way to the throne. A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Prince Su's eyes.
That night, Emperor Jingyuan talked to him for a long time, and even entrusted Li Jindu to him. He also gave him a token, and then summoned Prince Rui, and then Prince Su, and finally, summoned the most respected members of the royal family, such as Prince Duan, as well as the ministers of the six ministries and the nobles who were quite trusted by him.
After Emperor Jingyuan finished explaining the matter, he asked Li Jin to call Qi You in again. Looking at the many gazes coming from all around, Qi You walked firmly and calmly with Li Jin into the room where Emperor Jingyuan was resting.
Seeing Emperor Jingyuan's face clearly looking even less energetic, Qi You's heart skipped a beat, but he still had a smile on his face, "Grandfather."
Emperor Jingyuan knew that his time was up, so he looked at Qi You with some reluctance.
He has not seen his grandson grow up, become famous, or get married and have children. He still has many regrets, but he also knows that he can't wait any longer.
Emperor Jingyuan's eyes became moist again for a moment. Among all his grandchildren, he loved You'er the most, and he was also the one he was most reluctant to let go of. Not only because of his own abilities, but also because he was the person who had accompanied him the longest besides Li Jin.
"You'er, my royal grandfather originally wanted to see you grow up, get married and have children. But my health wasn't good enough, so you don't have the chance to see these things. Don't blame me." Emperor Jingyuan stroked the child's soft hair in front of him with difficulty, his eyes full of reluctance.
Qi You leaned forward and let Emperor Jing Yuan caress him, his eyes reddened because of Emperor Jing Yuan's words.
Looking up at the kind-looking, elderly man in front of him, Qi You reached out and held his hand, "Grandson doesn't blame Grandfather, please stop saying these things, you will be fine."
That being said, both of them knew it wouldn't work.
"Li Jin."
Emperor Jingyuan suddenly called out to Li Jin who was standing beside him. Upon hearing that, Li Jin hurried forward and handed the box in his hand to Qi You with both hands.
Qi You looked at Emperor Jingyuan in confusion, but still took the box from Li Jin.
After taking the box, Li Jin went out on his own accord.
The box didn't weigh much, and Qi You couldn't guess what was inside.
"This is a gift from your royal grandfather. Can you open the box and take a look?"
Hearing this, Qi You glanced at Emperor Jingyuan and obediently opened the box. However, as soon as he opened it, he saw two tokens lying inside. Both were golden, but the words on one of them made Qi You open his eyes wide. He directly ignored the stack of deeds under the two gold tokens.
A gold medal for immunity from death! ?
Qi You suddenly raised his head and looked at Emperor Jingyuan, "Grandfather, this..."
"This is for you. Do you know what the other one is for?" Emperor Jingyuan looked at Qi You and asked with a smile in his eyes.
Qi You shook his head honestly.
"That is another gift from your royal grandfather. When this is over, go to Banyue Villa and the people there will tell you what this token is used for."
Hearing this, Qi You roughly guessed what Emperor Jingyuan gave him.
I heard in my previous life that every emperor had several mysterious people under his command. These mysterious people were extremely capable, but they never protected the emperor. Instead, they were scattered everywhere to do things for the emperor. They were considered the emperor's personal secret hands. These people only listened to the emperor and only served the emperor.
Qi You wondered if the token given to him by his grandfather was a team of these mysterious people?
Although he thought so in his heart, Qi You didn't show it on his face at all.
However, Qi You was deeply touched by the fact that the person in front of him cared so much about him. Apart from his mother, only his royal grandfather treated him the best. Thinking of this, Qi You's eyes became even redder. He didn't know what to say to express his gratitude to the person in front of him, "Royal grandfather..."
"Cough, cough, cough!"
Emperor Jingyuan started coughing violently and uncontrollably, and Qi You hurried forward to help him on his back.
Emperor Jingyuan, who had finally recovered, calmed his breathing rhythm and looked at Elena, but Qiyou gave a forced smile. He felt a little sleepy.
"Let Lee in."
Upon hearing this, Qi You hurried out to call Li Jin.
When the door creaked open, everyone in the outer hall looked at Qi You. Seeing Qi You's red eyes, they all started and rushed over to ask questions, but Qi You's words the next second silenced everyone.
"Eunuch Li Jin, the Emperor's grandfather wants you to come in."
