Sitting beside Prince Rui's bed, Mrs. Guo whispered to Li Zian, "Just watch!"
After she finished speaking, she turned around, held Prince Rui's hand, and said loudly: "Master, can you hear me? If you can hear me, just raise your fingers!"
Li Zian stared closely at the big hand placed in Guo's palm. After a while, he slowly hooked his index finger.
The mother and son looked at each other and saw ecstasy in each other's eyes.
Li Zian's nose felt sore and his eye sockets were a little warm.
After more than three years, I finally saw hope again.
Guo said: "Thanks to Miss Shen, according to the prescriptions she prescribed and the massage methods she taught, your dad looks much better in the past few months than before. I think if he keeps going like this, he might be able to wake up before the end of the year." .”
Li Zi'an couldn't help but feel excited, but he quickly calmed down and motioned to Mr. Guo to go to the outside room with him before saying: "Dad has been in a coma for four years. There is no telling when he will wake up. Wait. When Miss Shen comes for follow-up consultation, mother must not say such things, so as not to put pressure on her."
"This is natural." Guo said, "How could I say these things to Miss Shen?"
Li Zian nodded and added: "Father recovered very quickly, but I think it's better to keep this matter a secret for the time being, and don't tell my grandmother either."
Guo didn't ask the reason, but just nodded to show that he understood.
After coming out of his parents' bedroom, Li Zi'an bumped into Li Zihan who came to pay his respects.
"Brother!" Li Zihan was leading a few servants and was walking in an orderly manner. As soon as he saw Li Zian, he immediately broke the skill and ran over quickly, threw himself directly on him, and said with a flat mouth, "Brother, recently What are you busy with? You haven't played with me for a long time!"
Li Zi'an knelt down, raised his hand and scratched the tip of Li Zihan's nose and said, "Don't think I don't know. You just came back from another hospital a few days ago. I'm too busy to play with you. It's obvious that you are not here." Here, I learned that the bad guys will complain first."
As soon as Li Zihan heard this, his pretense of grievance immediately disappeared. He hugged Li Zi'an's arm and shook it: "Brother, I'm very bored alone! When will Sister Shen come again?"
"You have to ask your grandmother, I don't know." Li Zian patted his sister's little head and said, "Hurry in and say hello to your parents, I still have business to attend to!"
Early in the morning, two people asked about Shen Tianshu one after another, which made Li Zian couldn't help but start to think about what kind of reason he should give to take her over for her father's follow-up consultation next time.
He thought about it all the way, came to the study room, saw Fan Yuru, then put aside the random thoughts in his head and asked: "Is something wrong?"
Fan Yuru was busy all night yesterday, sorting out all the information about Xirong. He did not go to the meeting directly, but first came to Li Zian for review.
"Since last year, there have been small-scale fights among the tribes in Xirong. Except for Muyexi and Jicang, who did not participate due to their sparse population and remote location, the other tribes are all involved.
"According to the news that came back, it seems that the five tribes of Langxi, Dazhe, Guangping, Xin'e and Yaoping have formed an alliance and started tentatively attacking the Kulun tribe.
"As the most powerful tribe in Xirong, the Kulun tribe occupies Ordos, which is rich in green salt, and Dijinze, which is rich in water and grass. They control almost 80% of the salt used by other tribes. They have already caused trouble by demanding Naka from other tribes. dissatisfied.
"Last year, Xirong had a good year, with good weather and good weather, so the cattle and sheep herds of each tribe expanded greatly. The Kulun tribe took the opportunity to increase prices in exchange for more cattle and sheep.
"This approach finally angered other tribes that had long been dissatisfied with them. After several tribal leaders formed a private alliance, they began to declare war on the Kurun tribe.
"Last year, it was just a small guerrilla, more like venting dissatisfaction. In the spring of this year, the Langxi tribe, which is closest to the Kulun tribe, took advantage of the two tribes' usual opportunities to compete for pasture and united with several other tribes.
, caught the Kulun tribe by surprise and intercepted a large number of cattle and sheep.
"This move completely angered the leader of the Kulun tribe, so he rectified the warriors in the tribe and ordered his eldest son to personally lead the expedition to conquer the five tribes. At the same time, he also sent people to our Daqi to purchase medicine for wounds.
"Although the Kulun tribe has strong troops and horses, the other five tribes unite and their power cannot be underestimated. In several encounters, the Kulun tribe has been defeated miserably. Now the two sides are still in a stalemate, but if the fight continues like this for two months, the other five tribes are afraid
I won't be able to hold on any longer.
"They don't have as strong a family background as the Kulun tribe, and they cannot sustain a long-term war. If they are really dragged to the end by the Kulun tribe, it is estimated that in the next few decades, the Kulun family will really be the only one left in Xirong.
"
Li Zian listened carefully, and then said: "If this is the case, it is not a good thing. If the Kulun tribe has no rivals in Xirong, they, a group of predatory barbarians, will definitely turn their guns and attack Daqi."
Started."
"That's right." Fan Yuru also frowned, "Sir, we can't interfere inside Xirong, and judging from the current situation, even if the people sent by the Kulun tribe can't purchase the medicine to go back, the other five tribes can't.
will be their opponent.
"The leader of the Kulun tribe is a smart man. Now that the war has begun, he cannot withdraw easily. He will fight to consume and defeat the other five tribes before stopping. Should we report the situation to the court?
?”
After hearing this, Li Zian did not answer directly. Instead, he picked up a piece of paper from the table and handed it to him: "Look at this, it was just delivered."
Fan Yuru took it and opened it to see that it was a secret letter that had been translated.
He habitually glanced at the secret seal in the lower left corner of the letter paper to confirm the source of the message before returning to read the content.
The most hidden backer behind Boss Qiu is actually Li Ziting?
"Why is he everywhere!" After reading the secret letter, Fan Yuru's brows knitted into a knot.
"Who asked my father to run Huguang so well? Now who doesn't covet our place!" Li Zian said this, with pride and admiration shining in his eyes.
"Li Ziting must have heard that Lady Tong was treating the prince, so he tried every means to get people around her." Fan Yuru analyzed, "But Miss Shen has never agreed to cooperate with him, so he used Xirong to go shopping
I want to frame Miss Shen because of the opportunity, so I have achieved my goal."
"Shen Tianshu got it right this time and created a good opportunity for us."
Fan Yuru couldn't follow Li Zian's train of thought for a while, so she raised her head and looked at him with doubtful eyes.
Li Zian raised his hand and tapped the letter he placed on the table and said: "Drag Li Ziting in and force him to take the initiative to help us report the incident in Xirong."
Fan Yuru's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he also laughed and said: "What a great idea. Let's see if he dares to reach out to Huguang in the future! I'll go down and make arrangements..."
But Li Zian stood up and said: "No, you stay in the Wang Mansion, I will go to Yongzhou Mansion."
"Your Majesty, you..." Fan Yuru was about to dissuade him, but was interrupted by Li Zian's gesture.
Fan Yuru felt miserable because Li Zian ran away without saying a word last time and took so long to come back. He stayed in the palace in fear every day and lived like a year.
After finally getting him back, he was severely punished by his own father.
Now that he has finally coaxed his father to calm down, Li Zian actually wants to go out again?
Fan Yuru knew that she couldn't persuade Li Zian, but she still wanted to make a final effort and said: "I'm afraid it will be difficult for the adults to explain..."
However, Li Zian was well prepared and said: "There has been a drought in Yongzhou Prefecture recently. If it doesn't rain, I'm afraid it will affect this year's harvest. Farming is a big deal, so it makes sense for me to go down and take a look."
Fan Yuru was completely speechless now. Li Zian had even thought of an excuse for himself. What else could he do?
