Chapter 2126 The person next to the pillow

When the Xu family's uncle and nephew left whispered, Li Chen was silently thinking about what he had to do and what he had done in Xizheng Hall.

Checking for missing and filling in leaks is not only a review of what has just been done, accumulating a mentality, but also a preparation for what is about to happen.

It is the night after he returned. According to the plan, the morning court will be held tomorrow. The news has been sent from the East Palace to officials at all levels in the capital. All those who should come will come.

Unless this morning court is really a special situation, it will come, because everyone knows that after half a year of separation, many important things will happen this morning court.

It’s just that others are guessing what will happen, but Li Chen can decide what will happen in the end.

All kinds of thoughts were churning, good and bad, and thousands of thoughts were concentrated in Li Chen's mind. New ideas came out at all times, and various ideas were rejected.

At this moment, Li Chen suddenly remembered the Emperor Daxing.

The old man who had been on the sickbed for several years and finally waited for his last breath to come back has finally passed away.

But even if he died, his body still had to play a role in the stability of the empire. He could not be buried in a short period of time and would continue to lie in the Qianqing Palace to cover up his eyes and ears.

Is it worth the emperor to do this?

I'm afraid that only Emperor Daxing himself knew the answer, but Li Chen knew that he would never be willing to be such an emperor.

"Your Highness."

A call woke Li Chen who was in deep thought.

Turning his head and looking at Zhao Rui standing next to him with a bowl of soup, Li Chen was shocked in a trance that he hadn't seen Zhao Rui for a long time.

"Your Highness just came back and was overthinking and looked not very good-looking. I made a bowl of lotus seed soup, and you should use it first."

Li Chen took the lotus seed soup. In fact, he had no appetite and did not refuse Zhao Rui's kindness. Gudu Gudu finished drinking the lotus seed soup with two big mouthfuls and said, "It tastes good, I like it very much."

Zhao Rui showed a bright smile on her face and said, "Your Highness likes you, I will give you a drink every day in the future."

Looking at Zhao Rui's calm and complacent look, Li Chen raised his hand and pulled her into his arms.

"Actually, there is no need to be like this between you and me. Although you are a concubine, you and me have feelings."

Playing with the ends of Zhao Rui's hair, Li Chen thought that when he first came over, the first thing he saw was Zhao Rui. The hot taste at that time has never been forgotten.

Although Zhao Rui had an ulterior motive at that time, all of them had passed, and Zhao Rui also used time and practical actions to prove her true feelings now.

Li Chen could also feel that during the later time, Zhao Rui was careful everywhere, fearing that she would not like her because of the past.

It is this caution that always makes the two of them feel alienated and unable to be truly caring.

Zhao Rui pursed her lips, sat obediently in Li Chen's arms, and whispered: "I know your highness's goodness, but it is because of this that I have to serve your highness more carefully."

"Serve, I don't like this word."
