The news came too suddenly, and he didn't stop, Su Qianyang asked Su Qianmo to escort Jiang Ruyin's carriage back, and he took people back to Lin'an City first.

And the carriage they followed also sped up a lot, and the journey of more than half a month, more than ten days of hard work had already arrived in Lin'an City.

At this time, Su Qianyang had already returned to Lin'an for five or six days.

After returning to the palace, Jiang Ruyin got a little more complete news about this matter, at the beginning of November, the weather in Lin'an City suddenly became cold, that is, the wind was still blowing warm in the morning, and it suddenly cooled down in the afternoon.

There were also a few palace people in Zhaoyang Palace who had a cold, and Xu's mother separated them in a separate courtyard as soon as possible, and Zhaoyang Palace sent medicine and soup to avoid Brother Zhan from being infected.

In Yihe Palace, the four princes had a high fever for two days because they came back from a trip.

The prince's health is not good, his resistance is weak, and he is easy to get sick, first two lovers in the prince's mansion have a fever, and then the prince also fell ill, and now the two lovers are all well, and the prince is still lying when he is good and bad.

"After the cold wave has passed, this winter is coming, and the weather will only get colder and colder in the future." Mother Xu is still worried about the prince's situation in her words, as soon as the weather is cold, it will be more difficult for this body to recover, and it is not good to say, when it snows, how many people will not be able to survive this winter.

If the crown prince really went, then the court would be in great turmoil.

Jiang Ruyin thought about it, and asked Zi Xia to send a letter back to the Jiang Mansion, the second uncle and eldest brother have already returned from the Jiang family's ancestral house, and they will soon be reinstated, whether it is the original position or not, the Jiang family has so many officials, coupled with the faintly fluctuating situation now, what to do will attract attention, everything must be low-key...

In the past few days since I came back, the emperor has a lot of government affairs to deal with, the prince's health is not good, and he has not been idle, Jiang Ruyin has communicated with his father back and forth several times, and finally decided that the second uncle and eldest brother will not be official for the time being, how to wait until this year passes, and then make plans when the spring prince is well, even if the Jiang family does not move, there will be good people who want to push the Jiang family out.

If the prince's body continues like this, the Jiang family will not be able to move.

At night, Pingning and Brother Rong came over, and Jiang Ruyin told them well, "Your Aunt Yinhuan is back now, but during this time, don't go out of the palace, Xun'er, Mrs. Cheng, don't go for the time being, stay in the palace." Jiang Ruyin looked at Brother Zhan who came up, touched his head, and Ping Ning was worried about the prince's body, "Mother, the prince's brother has been sick for a long time, and if you wanted to go to Concubine De before, let us not go." ”

"It's not too late to see him when he's better." Jiang Ruyin persuaded her and sighed slightly, I am afraid that the palace has been depressed for a while...

At the beginning of December, approaching Laba, the palace was going to start preparing soup porridge, the queen's body was good, and when Jiang Ruyin accompanied the emperor to the south, Concubine De had already returned the palace affairs to the queen, but the prince's health was not good, and the queen had no intention of being busy with anything else, and this matter finally fell to Jiang Ruyin's side.

Jiang Ruyin only took over the matter of sending porridge during the Laba Festival in the palace, and the bureau outside the palace wanted to give rice and porridge, Jiang Ruyin pushed it back, this thankless thing, she didn't do it, speaking of which, this is the queen's private matter, do you want her to pay out the money.

The day before Laba, the palace began to be busy boiling Laba porridge late at night, and when the sky was bright, it was sent to the palaces outside the palace, and the palace was also distributed, and when it was dawn, the bureau outside the palace did not open the door to give porridge and rice.

There are a lot of people who have wandered around this bureau, but the queen has no intention of doing this, and the bureau has not opened the door all day, but there are sheds for soup soup in the imperial court at the gates of each city, and there are many people in line, all to drink a mouthful of porridge sent down from the palace.

Four or five days after Laba passed, Jiang Ruyin could be regarded as really seeing the emperor.

It's just that after so many days of hard work, Jiang Ruyin found that the emperor had lost a lot of weight, and when she arrived at Zhaoyang Palace at night, she was also tired.

Jiang Ruyin didn't let Mama bring Brother Zhan over, changed his clothes for him, ordered Qingdong to make a pot of tea, sat behind him, stretched out her hand and gently pressed his head for him.

As soon as Su Qianyang came back, he was busy with the accumulated government affairs, there were not so many, the prince was left as soon as he was sick, and he didn't sleep for two nights after he went to the prince's mansion just a few days after he came back, and it was only a little better in the past few days.

The prince can't afford to be sick, and what comes to him is the problem of inheritance, the prince's body is no longer suitable for being an heir, and there are countless pieces about the establishment of another prince these days, Su Qianyang didn't read all of them, this is all in private, and no one in the court dares to stand up and say this in public.

Su Qianyang squinted his eyes, changed his posture and leaned on her lap, pressing and pressing as if he had fallen asleep, Jiang Ruyin called him gently, and after a while he opened his eyes, his voice was slightly hoarse, "What time is it." ”

"Go to bed and change your clothes." Jiang Ruyin said softly, Su Qianyang got up and looked out the window, it was still dark, "I thought I had woken up." ”

I was really tired, otherwise how could I fall asleep like this, Su Qianyang lay on the bed, Jiang Ruyin massaged him for a while, and not long after, he fell asleep again.

Su Qianyang, who was asleep, didn't relax much, his nerves were tense these days, and he was still thinking about those things when he fell asleep at night.

Jiang Ruyin reached out and gently stroked his eyebrows, and I don't know when it started, there were faint lines under the corners of his eyes.

He said he was old, but she wasn't young either.

In her memory, he has become more and more important in his heart over the years, and some things can't be stopped once he starts thinking about them, he wants her to believe in him, these efforts can't be completed by him alone.

Qingdong came in with warm water, Jiang Ruyin asked her to put aside, got up and wiped his face and hands for him, and Feng Ang outside the house said that there was something to report.

Jiang Ruyin walked outside the house, Feng Angyu reported about the Xingchang Palace, in the middle of the night, the Xingchang Palace sent someone out of the palace, and it was the Jin Mansion that went to it.

"The people outside the palace have been staring at the Jinfu, and Mama Chen of the Huanyi Bureau has not moved." Jiang Ruyin nodded and looked back at the room, now this court is really going to be flooding...

The prince is sick, and he still has to take care of it, the queen is worried about the prince's body, and her body just hasn't been around for a long time and can't hold it up, so much to say inside and outside the palace, it can't all be handed over to Jiang Ruyin, this busy, after the sacrifice at the end of the year, the queen also lost weight.

But there was no bad news from the Prince's Mansion, and the atmosphere in the palace seemed very strange in the Chinese New Year's Eve, and those who wanted to be happy did not dare to be happy, and those who were unhappy had to pretend to be happy.

And in the prince's mansion, just as the fireworks were going off outside the house, in the house, the prince was sitting on the bed with a pale face, and opposite him, stood the emperor.

Su Qianyang was invited by the prince's letter, and when he arrived here, the crown princess served, and the two side concubines went into the palace, and the rest were not serving by his side.

The people in the house were sent out, and Su Yanxun coughed a few times, "Father, the son has something to ask you." ”

Su Qianyang's expression moved slightly, and Su Yan continued, "The body of the son, it is not suitable to be the prince anymore if it continues like this, so I implore my father to abolish the son-in-law and set up another prince." ”

His son would propose this, Su Qianyang was not surprised, just sat down and looked at him gently, "You take care of your illness, the most important thing is that your body is well." ”

"Erchen's body, Erchen knows it very well in his heart." Su Yanxun shook his head, "The son only asks for his father, and he can treat the queen mother well in the future, even if he sets up another prince, and the new emperor ascends the throne in the future, he can also give the queen mother a place in the harem, and the son is not filial." ”

He was very clear about his situation, but fortunately, it was only on the surface, this time the wind and cold had crushed everything he had maintained on the surface, and the Imperial Doctor could guess without saying that his body had already been empty.

No matter how precious the herbs are, they can't be sustained.

"The queen mother has done a lot of things that disappointed her father, but she is all for the sake of her sons, and I also ask my father to forgive her mother's mistakes for the sake of her sons." Su Yanxun saw that he didn't speak, and begged again, but his words were too urgent, causing a cough.

Su Qianyang stopped him from continuing, "Do you know what mistakes your mother has made?" ”

Su Yanxun had a trace of bitterness in his eyes, he knew, but maybe he didn't know everything, maybe there were many things he didn't know, "Then ask my father to forgive my mother for the wrong things he did before." After that, he will have no reason to ask or have the opportunity to ask in the future.

"Xun'er, my father can promise you not to care about the past." He didn't care about what he knew, but because his son begged him like this.

That's enough.

Su Yanxun closed his eyes tiredly, Su Qianyang knew that he was tired, so he called the imperial doctor to come in to check his pulse, and walked out of the house, the crown princess was in the outer room, her eyes were red as if she had just cried.

Su Qianyang returned to the palace, and when he arrived at Zhaoyang Palace, it was already early in the morning, Jiang Ruyin fell asleep, Su Qianyang hesitated at the gate of Zhaoyang Palace, and finally turned around and went to Youchun Garden, where the eldest princess was...

As soon as this year passed, the most concerned was the prince's body, and fortunately, after stepping out of this year, the prince survived.

With the beginning of spring, it always gives people hope, and the queen went to Nanshan Temple several times in succession to pray for the prince, hoping that God will bless the prince's body to get better, and in the court, there are already doubts about the prince's position.

From the prince's illness to March, more than four months passed, and finally some ministers raised objections in the court, not belonging to the Zhao family, nor having a good relationship with the Jiang family, but very pertinent to the prince's body and the actual situation of having no heirs, and then asked the emperor to consider the succession of the great unification of the dynasty as soon as possible, and set up a new prince.

Sometimes it's just the first sound, as soon as the minister speaks, the rest of the people who have been holding back for a long time also agree one by one, abolishing the prince and setting up a new prince, all for the sake of the smooth continuation of the great dynasty, this inheritance issue, can not be delayed.

Led by Zhao Guogong, he was already worried about the prince's affairs and couldn't sleep at night, and when someone came out to say this, they quarreled directly.

Su Qianyang looked at this group of people and couldn't argue anymore, and his voice was cold, "Then you Aiqing think that if you abolish the crown prince, you will set up someone else." ”
