The last time he rescued Yu Cihe, Mu Jinggong followed King Nanyang into the palace to see the emperor for a doctor, and he saw that the emperor's illness was caused by long-term medication. She just used her own method to slightly reduce the properties of those medicines, but after all, it was a symptom rather than a cure, at most, it was the time to slow down the onset of the drug, and it was only able to support it for a few days. Moreover, the person who secretly medicated the emperor has been working for many days, and after accumulation, the emperor's state is already weak. Mu Jinggong just made some preparations that day to restore the emperor's spirit, so that outsiders seemed to think that the emperor was already well, but Mu Jinggong knew very well in his heart that all this was just like a return to the light, and after this period of time, everything was useless. On that day, the emperor wanted to reward Mu Jinggong after he sobered up, but Mu Jinggong stopped him, and all these rewards fell on King Nanyang. The emperor once asked about Mu Jinggong's name, and Mu Jinggong hesitated for a long time, and finally only came up with the name "Lin Hibiscus" to prevaricate the emperor. After leaving the palace gate, in the Nanyang Palace, Mu Jinggong explained the emperor's situation to the king of Nanyang.

"Lord, I didn't say much in the palace before, but now in your mansion, I want to tell the prince some of the real situation."

"Miss Mu, please speak."

"I have seen the emperor's illness before, although the emperor seemed to be fine at that time, and he himself said that he felt refreshed, but in fact, this is just the outside. The real situation is that the emperor's state can only last for ten days at most. ”

"Why did my father become like this?" Xiao Shuyu felt a little confused.

"People in the court said that the emperor was caused by a stroke, and I didn't want to arouse too much suspicion at the time, so I said so, but in fact, the real reason is that people have been putting medicine in their diet for a long time, and it is not a big problem to eat it for the first time, but long-term consumption will lead to some problems, and finally it has reached the point where it is out of control now."

"That'...... According to this state of her father, how long does Miss Mu think that her father has been forced to use medicine? ”

Mu Jinggong hesitated for a moment and said, "It's been a year to say the least. ”

"A year?" When Xiao Shuyu heard this, he became a little nervous, "Then what kind of person can do these things in a year without being discovered by his father?" ”

Mu Jinggong smiled and said, "If you say this, I think the prince should know better than me." ”

Xiao Shuyu thought for a while and said: "The person who can give medicine to his father must be the person around his father, and the person who can be so blatant without his father's knowledge must be a powerful person, and this person can still give medicine to his father for a year, he must be a person trusted by his father." If that's the case, then it's ......" Before Xiao Shuyu's words could be spoken, he was interrupted by Mu Jinggong: "Lord Wang, who is this person, I don't think you have to tell me." , who this person will be, it would be good if you knew it yourself, Lord Wang. Lord Wang, I'll go see Yu Cihe, and I'll leave first. ”

"Hmm." Xiao Shuyu nodded, watching Mu Jinggong leave, and he already had the answer he wanted in his heart.

—— —— ——

Mu Jinggong had a short recovery and sobriety after entering the palace, and during the time he was sober, he learned about Princess Su'an. It's just that before Yu Cihe took the blame, Xiao Yuhuan replaced the name of Princess Su'an, claiming that it was a killer named Yu Cihe who sneaked into Jinci Palace and killed the child. What is the specific reason, Xiao Yuhuan made up a reason at random, saying that he was going to Xiao Shuyu, the king of Nanyang. And here with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Xiao Yuhuan, and even more so here with the emperor, Yu Cihe has a very magical identity, the killer of Yulongtai. Although Xiao Yuhuan can speak well, he still committed the crime of bullying the king, and the emperor also cherished his son a little, so he didn't do anything major for him, but just grounded him in the East Palace, and he was not allowed to do anything. And because of the emperor's relationship, his contacts with Shen Fan have become much less. It's just that this state didn't last long, and it didn't take long for the emperor's body to deteriorate again, and this time his condition seemed to be more serious, and Xiao Yuhuan took the opportunity to come out of the East Palace, trying to control the power and take over that position as soon as possible.

Time in a blink of an eye, it was the thirteenth day of July, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Xiao Yuhuan was preparing to rest in his bedroom when he suddenly heard a noise outside the window, he got up and walked to the window to take another look, lowered his voice and asked, "Who?" There was a "whirring" wind outside the window. He cautiously opened the window and looked out, it was empty, nothing. He stumbled shut the window again and returned to his bed. It's just that when he came back, he overlooked one thing, and I don't know when a very small wind chime suddenly appeared above the curtain next to his bed. Xiao Yuhuan didn't notice the little wind chime, but he just felt that he was unusually sleepy and lay down to sleep. The phoenix blood jade that Xiao Yuhuan had obtained from Yu Cihe before was carefully placed in a treasure box by him at this moment, and this box was placed on his bookcase. In normal times, the inside of the box must be pitch black, but today, at this moment, there is a strange light in the box, and there is no doubt that this light comes from the phoenix blood jade.

In the middle of the night, when the windows and doors were closed, a gust of wind blew into the East Palace and blew to the bedside of His Royal Highness the Prince. The small wind chimes above the curtain made a crisp sound, intruding into people's dreams, like the sound of a bell on a passer-by from a distant place. Xiao Yuhuan stood beside a lake with his hands behind his back and looked at a fish jumping in the air calmly on the surface of the lake, and when he was in a trance, someone behind him suddenly called his name.

"Huan'er~"

Xiao Yuhuan looked back and saw Mrs. Yun walking towards him. "Mother!" Xiao Yuhuan screamed and ran over, and Mrs. Yun took Xiao Yuhuan's arm and asked, "Huan'er?" What's wrong? Why didn't you go back to the palace and suddenly come here? ”

"Mother, I don't want to go back, I can see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince when I go back."

"His Royal Highness the Prince? What did he do? Did I bully you? ”

"No, it's just that I'm annoyed when I see him. I think my father likes him very much, and he doesn't like me, so I hate him very much. Why! Just because he is the crown prince, does his father like him? ”

Mrs. Yun hugged Xiao Yuhuan and comforted: "Huan'er, don't worry, the position of the crown prince is not necessarily his, it may also be yours." ”

"Mine?" Xiao Yuhuan looked at Mrs. Yun and asked, "Mother?" How could it be mine? ”

Mrs. Yun smiled: "Huan'er, remember the words of the concubine, as long as you want to, then it is yours." ”
