Chapter 19: The Prince's Next Target

Seeing that Ruan Chen didn't answer his question immediately, the man didn't force him, but took a step back and said, "I'm not in a hurry to ask for Imperial Doctor Ruan's answer, but I think that Imperial Physician Ruan's body shouldn't be able to support it for a few days, right?" It's not early today, so please go back to your home to rest. In order to prevent the Imperial Doctor from being in danger, there will be someone who has been secretly protecting the Imperial Doctor. ”

Protection? Ruan Chen smiled sadly, saying that it was protection, but it was better to say that it was monitoring and controlling himself. Do you want to threaten to force yourself to agree to their terms in this way? But I don't know, what is their purpose?

Ruan Chen had no choice but to walk home alone, as for those who had already died because of him, he thought that the man in black should also deal with it, and would not let others notice about this disaster.

Tong Li felt that something was wrong when she saw Ruan Chen return home so quickly, and she was extremely uncomfortable, she sat up from the bed and asked, "Is something happening?" ”

Ruan Chen turned his head to look at his wife's pale face and shook his head slowly. "It's nothing, I just remembered some things, and I plan to enter the palace tomorrow to see the emperor again. And it's so late, the emperor should also rest. ”

Ruan Chen tried his best to calm Tong Li's emotions, and calculated in his heart that he and Tong Li could last a few days at most. If those people have been monitoring themselves outside the palace, then as long as they enter the palace, will they be able to get rid of their control? But in this way, it also means that he is at the cost of his own life and Tong Li's life.

Ruan Chen faintly sensed a hint of conspiracy, but he didn't want to believe it like that. Tossing and turning, he didn't sleep all night. When he got up early the next morning and entered the palace, he was almost about to collapse.

After retiring from the court, Ruan Chen planned to return to the Imperial Physician Hall first. On the way, he bumped into Jian Yuheng, who had not met for a while, and the two stopped and said a few words.

"Imperial Doctor Ruan's complexion doesn't seem to be very good, and his body is fine, right?" Jian Yuheng looked at Ruan Chen's wrong appearance and asked with concern.

Ruan Chen was stunned for a moment, then smiled perfunctorily, lowered his eyes and said, "Maybe I slept late recently, it's not a big deal." ”

Although Ruan Chen said this, Jian Yuheng still felt his abnormality. Ruan Chen can be regarded as the best imperial doctor in the Imperial Physician Palace, Ruan Chen has always paid great attention to his physical health, Jian Yuheng and Ruan Chen have known each other for so many years, and it is the first time to see him so weak.

"I'll go back first."

"It's okay, I also have something to go to see the emperor." Jian Yuheng nodded, and then said in his words: "If Imperial Doctor Ruan needs my help in something, just ask." ”

Ruan Chen's eyes flashed, he smiled slightly, and walked in the opposite direction with Jian Yuheng.

Ruan Chen stayed in the Imperial Physician's Hall for a few hours, and after a few struggles, he still mustered up the courage to go to see the emperor. The short distance, every step he walked was terrified. For fear that suddenly coming out from behind him would kill him.

"Where are you going?"

Ruan Chen, who had his head down, almost jumped out of his heart when he heard this, and looked up suddenly, but saw Lin Yichen.

Relieved, Ruan Chen raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from the corner of his forehead. "Back to the prince, the minister has something to go to see the emperor."

"Father is at the Queen Mother's place now, so I shouldn't have time to see you." Lin Yichen stared sharply at Ruan Chen's every move, "Please also ask Dr. Ruan to see him another day." ”

After Ruan Chen heard Lin Yichen's words, he felt an inexplicable fear for some reason. After looking at Lin Yichen blankly for a moment, Ruan Chen replied knowingly: "The minister will go back to the Imperial Doctor Hall first." ”

"Imperial Doctor Ruan's face is not very good, pay attention to rest." Lin Yichen passed Ruan Chen with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and strode away. Ruan Chen looked at Lin Yichen's figure as he walked away, and his brows furrowed more and more.

Jian Yuheng immediately found Lin Yinan after returning to the Eight Emperors' Mansion and told him about Ruan Chen. Jian Yuheng may not be as proficient as Ruan Chen in terms of medical skills, but after all, he has been by Lin Yinan's side for so long, and he has been trying all kinds of ways to get rid of the poison on Lin Yinan's body, and he is still very clear about most of the signs of poisoning. Thinking of seeing Ruan Chen today, it was obvious that he was poisoned. Maybe Jian Yuheng was thinking too much about himself, but he still felt the need to let Lin Yinan know about it.

After listening to what Jian Yuheng said, Lin Yinan pondered for a long time and said, "I will send someone to investigate this matter, but if the matter is really as you suspect, and Ruan Chen asks for help as you ask, you must remember that you are not allowed to meddle in this matter." ”

"The master means to let Ruan Chen ...... Die? ”

"He didn't die that easily." Lin Yinan waved his hand to let Jian Yuheng leave, and then found Mu Ranchen and asked him to investigate the matter.

A day later, Mu Ranchen brought back the news. Just as Jian Yuheng said, Ruan Chen was indeed a reaction to poisoning.

"I didn't expect the prince to do it quite quickly." Lin Yinan smiled indifferently, looked at Shang Mu Ranchen's puzzled gaze, and said: "Ruan Chen agrees or not, Lin Yichen's next target will be the emperor, it's just that it's not easy to start." The father trusted Ruan Chen very much, and it would be very simple to poison him through Ruan Chen's hands. ”

This once again proves that Lin Yichen is really joining forces with the Qing Netherworld. Ordinary poisons can't do anything to Ruan Chen at all, and if that's the case, then the incident where Lu Zhiyao was injured a few days ago, could it be that Lin Yichen asked the Qing Netherworld to do it?

"You're not going to help Ruan Chen? At this time, if the crown prince wins, it won't do us any good, right? ”

"He won't attack the throne so quickly, Nangong Lingfeng is still at the border and hasn't come back, and we haven't gotten any information that Nangong Lingfeng is secretly doing something. A large number of troops are still under the control of Mu Wangye, once the prince tries to do something, Mu Wangye will definitely send troops to suppress it, after all, if the throne changes hands at this time, it will not be a good thing for him. Lin Yinan stood up from the chair calmly with a lazy posture, and from his words, he didn't care much about Ruan Chen's life or death. If I guess correctly, it is more likely that the crown prince wants his father to announce to the world that he will be the prince, and take the opportunity to let his father leave a note in case of any accidents in the future. ”

"Since you guessed this, isn't the Eighth Prince going to do something?"

"You don't have to do anything, and someone will always stop you." The corners of Lin Yinan's mouth were slightly raised, but there was a frightening cold color in his eyes. "After putting up with it for so long, it's time for him to take action."

Mu Ranchen couldn't guess who the "he" in Lin Yinan's mouth was for a while, but seeing Lin Yinan's unflustered appearance, he was relieved. Lin Yinan has always been a person who will leave a way out for himself, no matter what, no matter what happens, he will definitely come up with a way to deal with it.

The days passed day by day, and finally it was time when Tong Li couldn't bear it anymore. These days, whenever Ruan Chen wants to see the emperor, there will always be various people who stop him in various ways. Gradually, Ruan Chen had given up.

Seeing Tong Li spitting blood, life is worse than death, but he has no way at all, this feeling is the first time in Ruan Chen's life that he has felt it.

In the end, the fear of death eventually prevailed, and in any case, the first thing to do is to find out the other person's purpose and save your own life.

After some careful consideration, Ruan Chen chose to make head-on contact with the other party again. Looking at the man in front of him, Ruan Chen said weakly: "What do you want me to do to let me go?" ”

"Don't say what Imperial Doctor Ruan said so ugly, you and I just take what we need, and even if you join forces with us, you don't necessarily suffer. Maybe the future will be a hundred times better than now? ”

Ruan Chen smiled stiffly, "If you really didn't want me to say ugly things, you wouldn't have chosen to use this method against me in the first place." Tell me, did the crown prince send you here or the eighth prince? Don't tell me it's the Fourth Prince, I won't believe it. ”

Although Ruan Chen was the first to suspect the crown prince, because Lin Yichen had come to him but was rejected by him, Jian Yuheng's words that day also made him have to doubt.

"How can it be the Fourth Prince, he doesn't have time to come to you now." The man also felt that it was almost time for Ruan Chen to know the truth, so he said, "The prince should have deliberately found you before, right?" ”

Ruan Chen sighed secretly, is it really the prince......

Ruan Chen nodded and replied, "Yes, I did find it, is it because Weichen didn't agree at that time, so the prince chose to use this method?" ”

"Doesn't this also show the importance of Imperial Physician Ruan, and the prince must be you?" Of course, the man heard the dissatisfaction in Ruan Chen's words, took out something from his arms and threw it in front of Ruan Chen, and said, "Go and call Mrs. and let her take the antidote." This medicine can only relieve the pain for a maximum of three days, which means that the doctor will meet with us every three days. ”

The other party broke Ruan Chen's extravagant hope of secretly studying this antidote, so as to detoxify himself and Tong Li, so he asked Ruan Chen and Tong Li to take the antidote one after another. Since Ruan Chen had already thought of the prince in advance, of course, he also thought of what the prince wanted to do with himself.

"Even if I help, the prince may not be able to succeed." How cautious Lin Yunlong was, Ruan Chen couldn't be clearer. "Say what you want me to do."

"Don't worry, you can rest for two days and we'll talk about this later." The man was not in a hurry to make a move, the smile in his eyes made Ruan Chen feel that he had no power to resist at all, and watched the man leave helplessly, Ruan Chen sat on the chair and couldn't get out of the room for a long time.

[There is something to do today, and I will continue to do it tomorrow~]
