C175 In an instant (2/2)
For such an ordinary family, a serious illness like this could not be allowed to happen, because having one was a disaster that would lead to annihilation.
Unfortunately, the illness had fallen into Chen Xiao's hands. Helpless, they could only take out what they wanted in exchange.
Qi He smiled and said, ”Aren't you all very lucky?”
”Yeah, as long as my son is safe and sound, I won't ask for anything else.” When Chen Lin learned that his son was sick, he immediately felt that the sky had fallen. At that moment, he clearly realized that in this world, there was nothing more important than his son's life.
The father and son stayed at the House of Fame, and Qi He chose a few dexterous servants to serve them.
Duke Ming knew what had happened. Even though he was in a high position, he still felt sympathy for them, so he did as he was told and took good care of the 'guests'.
In the evening, seeing that the candlelight in his father's study was still burning and presumably still in charge of his affairs, Qi He took a cup of spirit-raising tea with great care and brought it in.
”Why did my little girl suddenly become filial?” The Honorary King put down the paper in his hand and sized up her daughter. Aiyo, I've really lost a bit of weight after not seeing her for half a month. It seems that she has indeed suffered a lot.
”What is father saying? Could it be that Wei He was unfilial before?”
Although she was usually a bit mischievous, she still respected her father a lot.
How could that be said? Although his father was the emperor's elder brother and was deeply trusted by his uncle, he had never been pampered or made proud by others. He had always been diligent in his efforts to seek blessings for the commoners.
That was why his father's reputation in the hearts of the people was so great. It was a pity that his good reputation had been worn down a little because of his daughter. It was a bit embarrassing to say it out loud.
”Alright, you're still not sleeping when it's already so late. It shouldn't be just simply a cup of tea for Father to drink, right?” He still believed that he knew a little about this precious daughter of his.
”Father is wise.”
”Stop flattering me, just tell me the proper business.” Duke Ming raised his teacup and took a sip.
The tea that his daughter had personally served had become sweet from all the hardships that it had gone through.
”It's like this. I want to ask, after this matter is over, can I stay in Master's house for a few days?”
All good performance is to achieve what you want.
”The Imperial Advisor's estate?” The King frowned.
The Imperial Advisor didn't think too highly of her and didn't expel her from the sect. Even as a father, he felt that he owed the Imperial Advisor a lot.
”En!” Qi He nodded seriously.
”Then... Father, I have the gall to discuss it with the State Grandmaster? ” After all, she was the one who suggested it, and if he didn't agree, it would be too unreasonable.
”Father, you are too good! You really are the best father in the world! ” Qi He jumped up in joy, and for a moment, he felt that the entire world was shining.
”Alright, alright, don't go crazy at night. Father will inform you if there's any news.” The Honorary King once again picked up the paper. Now that the country was in a state of crisis, he, as a relative of the imperial family, had to worry especially.
They were all worried that the empress of the emperor was nowhere to be seen and the great general had gone to the frontlines to fight. The general situation of the imperial court was in danger and if anyone with ulterior motives took advantage of the loot, the consequences would be unimaginable.
He hoped that the Emperor could return to the capital as soon as possible and end the war with Dongluo City as soon as possible.
With a great general in charge of the imperial court, they would be able to hold out for a little longer.
”Then after father has settled the matter, go to sleep early.
With that, he skipped back to his room.
Prince Fu could only shake his head. ”When will this child grow up?”
Actually, when he thought of marrying her in the future, he felt a bit of reluctance. After all, she was his beloved daughter.
However, a girl had to be married. She had to be left behind for revenge, and when she completely forgot about that eunuch, she should worry about the marriage.
