Chapter 147

Li Shimin still had something important to do, he heard Sun Simiao's words, Du Ruhui's life was saved for the time being, so he went back to the palace first.

When Du Ruhui woke up, Li Shimin was no longer in Du's mansion, but Li Ke was still in the mansion with Sun Simiao.

"Du Ruhui thanked His Highness, thanked the real person." After Du Ruhui woke up, he saw Sun Simiao and Li Ke sitting beside the couch at a glance. He didn't know who saved him, so he struggled to get up and thanked him.

Seeing that Du Ruhui was about to get up, Li Ke hurriedly stepped forward to help him, saying: "Du Xiang has not recovered from his serious illness, it is better to lie down and rest."

Sun Simiao, who was silent at the side, also said: "Du Xiang, don't be in a hurry to thank the old Taoist. The old Taoist just woke up Du Xiang and solved a temporary difficulty. It doesn't count as saving your life."

The root of Du Ruhui's illness was not the thick blood in his throat, but his body that was almost exhausted. If Du Ruhui's body could not be healed, he would faint again at any time.

Li Ke asked Du Ruhui: "Does Du Xiang know how long I have been in a coma?"

Du Ruhui was in a coma, and now he didn't know the time, so Du Ruhui turned his head to look at his wife, Du Shi, who was serving beside him.

Seeing Du Ruhui looking at her, Mrs. Du replied: "My husband was in a coma last night, now it's already past noon, and it's been half a day now."

Du Ruhui showed surprise on his face, he didn't expect to be unconscious for such a long time.

In fact, what Du Ruhui didn't expect was that if Sun Simiao was an hour later, the thick blood in his throat would congeal more and more, and then he would stagnate and die, never waking up.

Li Ke said to Du Ruhui: "It seems that Du Xiang didn't listen to my king's words. This king has only been away from Beijing for four days, and Du Xiang almost lost his life."

Before Li Ke left, he had told Du Ruhui that Du Ruhui's illness was related to perennial fatigue, so he must rest carefully, but Du Ruhui's condition deteriorated so quickly, obviously he didn't take Li Ke's words to heart.

Du Ruhui smiled wryly and said: "Since I know that my fate will not be long, instead of waiting in the mansion to die of illness, why not take advantage of the last time to do something for Your Majesty and for the Great Tang."

Li Ke heard the words, and said to Du Ruhui: "Du Xiang's trip is comparable to that of the ancient Wuhou Zhuge, who dedicated himself to death and died. This king admires him. But I don't know that Du Xiang has just walked through the gate of hell. Is there something in his heart?"

Du Ruhui thought for a while, and asked Sun Simiao: "If Du can escape from death this time, how many years will he have left?"

Sun Simiao replied truthfully: "The shortest period is three years, and the longest period is five years. If Du Xiang can follow the old Taoist's words and follow the old Taoist to Nanmengxi to practice Taoism, he may pass his sixtieth year."

Du Ruhui listened to Sun Simiao's words, as if he only heard the first half of Sun Simiao's sentence, and said in his mouth: "Three years, Gou'er has already married a wife, and three years is enough time for Du to embrace his eldest grandson."

The son Du Ruhui was talking about was Du Ruhui's eldest son, Du Gou. Du Gou married his wife at the beginning of the fourth year of Zhenguan, so the eldest grandson Du Ruhui was talking about was naturally Du Gou's son.

After hearing Du Ruhui's words, Li Ke didn't know what he meant, but in just three years, could Li Ke and his Chu royal party really grow enough to deal with the eldest grandson Wuji in the court?
Li Ke was not very sure in his heart.

Du Ruhui acted upright, not as tactful as Fang Xuanling, if Du Ruhui was alive, Changsun Wuji would be a little bit jealous, but if it was only three years, Li Ke spent so much effort, what's the point of saving Du Ruhui?

Li Ke paused, and said to Du Ruhui: "Du Xiang is the pillar of the country, and Du Xiang is at ease. I will write a letter to my father later, and ask my father to suspend Du Xiang's post. He has already recuperated in the mansion, and he will not go until he recovers." Governance."

Du Ruhui didn't want Li Ke to speak for him like this. If Du Ruhui wanted to be an idle official, he would have mentioned it to Li Shimin a long time ago, so why would he wait until today.

After hearing Li Ke's words, Du Ruhui immediately said: "Your Highness's grace of saving your life, I will remember it in my heart, but I can only accept His Highness's kindness."

Li Ke asked: "What does Du Xiang mean by this?"

Du Ruhui replied: "Your Majesty has been on the throne for four years, the Turks are at peace, the northwest is undetermined, and the world is waiting for prosperity. As Your Majesty's arm, how can I sneak away in the mansion at this time."

Hearing what Du Ruhui said, Li Ke didn't understand what Du Ruhui meant.

Li Ke immediately said to Du Ruhui: "There are plenty of people who can manage and do things in the world, so why bother Du Xiang with everything, presumably my father doesn't want to watch Du Xiang work hard for the country, and his illness will get worse."

Du Ruhui said: "The subject's body is my own. Your Highness saved me, so I will naturally repay the favor of the palace. Your Highness will not interfere with other matters."

From Du Ruhui's point of view, Li Ke's plans were not small, and Li Ke's saving him was nothing more than to be kind to him. Now that he has recognized Li Ke's favor, Li Ke naturally has no need to worry about it.

But how did Du Ruhui know what Li Ke was thinking? It was good that Li Ke saved Du Ruhui, but he didn't do it for Du Ruhui's favor, but because he hoped that Du Ruhui's life would help him check and balance his eldest grandson Wuji.

Yu Gong, Du Ruhui is a virtuous prime minister, and he is willing to serve the country with his own body, and Li Ke is too lazy to be that villain among them.But personally, Li Ke never wanted Du Ruhui to die so early, at least until Li Ke was able to compete with Changsun Wuji, Du Ruhui would never die.

Li Ke patted his robe, got up and said to Du Ruhui: "I act according to my preferences, but I have nothing to do with others. Whether Du Xiang is grateful for my kindness or not, I don't care, but your fate." This king saved you, so this king will not allow you to die, there are some things, this king has decided."

When Li Kezhi finished speaking, Du Ruhui was stunned.

Du Ruhui asked: "What does His Highness mean?"

Li Ke smiled lightly, and replied: "This matter was done voluntarily by the king, not for Du Xiang, but to relieve father and emperor's worries, so Du Xiang does not have to remember my king's kindness, let alone accept my king's love, So Du Xiang doesn't have to worry about what this king does."

After Li Ke finished speaking, he left Du Ruhui behind and left with the whole palace.

Du Ruhui looked at Li Ke's figure drifting away, and his mind suddenly became chaotic.

He claims to be knowledgeable and judgmental, but he can't understand the young man in front of him. He is obviously ambitious and aspires to the throne, but he has not shown too much enthusiasm for himself, the prime minister, and even sent him to his door. Human feelings are ignored.

It turned out that he misunderstood for a while, but it was just him, Du Ruhui, who was acting affectionate on his own?Li Ke never thought of trying to win him over?

But no matter what Du Ruhui himself is, Du Ruhui's official wife, Mrs. Du, accepted Li Ke's love.

"His Royal Highness stay, Your Highness stay."

Just when Li Ke left the inner room and was about to go out, Du Shi caught up with Li Ke under the pretext of seeing him off.

"Madam Du." Li Ke said to Du Shi when he saw Du Shi chasing up.

Mrs. Du walked to Li Ke's side, and said to Li Ke: "Keming's temperament is too stubborn, so His Majesty will have to speak to you."

As a wife, Mrs. Du doesn't care about so much wealth, she only hopes that Du Ruhui will be healthy, that's all.

Li Ke also knew Du Shi's meaning, and said to Du Shi: "Madam's meaning is clear to me, Madam, but don't worry, for Du Xiang's safety, this king will definitely explain this matter to my father."
