Hearing Zhao Yan ask again why he brought Zhao Tong and them to the elementary school, Zhao Yan turned his head to look at him a few times, and did not answer his question immediately, but asked with a calm face: "Fourth brother, when was the last time you went to visit your eldest brother?" ”

"A month ago, what happened?" Zhao Hao replied casually, but as soon as his words came out, he found that Zhao Yan looked at him with a little anger in his eyes, which made him immediately wake up and hurriedly explained, "Third brother, before you came back, I often visited my eldest brother, and I personally prescribed medicine to my eldest brother, but then you came back, I think my eldest brother should be able to recuperate calmly, so I go to my eldest brother less often." ”

When Zhao Yan explained to the end, even he felt a little weak, because he was busy cultivating a relationship with Ya'er during this time, so he didn't take time to visit Zhao Yan, and Zhao Yan also knew very well that his tone when he spoke to Ya'er just now was not good, in fact, it was precisely because of this, but strictly speaking, Ya'er was also very innocent.

"Hmph, a month ago, if you could visit your eldest brother often, then I don't have to tell you about today's events!" Zhao Yan reprimanded with a straight face, Zhao Hao bowed his head and said nothing, he did something wrong in this matter, after all, Zhao Yan was not lightly ill, and Zhao Yan, as a younger brother, had to visit more anyway.

"Third brother, what's going on, listen to what you mean, is the eldest brother's condition worsening?" Zhao Yan is not stupid, he immediately raised his head when he heard Zhao Yan's words and asked, usually he is actually quite afraid of Zhao Yan, after all, compared to Zhao Yan, Zhao Yan is too strict with him, but now hearing Zhao Yan's words, Zhao Yan can't help but worry about Zhao Yan.

"Well, it would have been much better if it had only worsened." Zhao Yan sighed at this time, although he was a little angry that Zhao Yan didn't care about Zhao Yan's body. But he knew that this couldn't be completely blamed on Zhao Hao, after all, Zhao Hao was already an adult, and he had already moved out of the palace, and if he went to the palace often, he might even arouse suspicion.

"What do you mean, is it ...... big brother" Zhao Yan was also shocked when he heard Zhao Yan's words, and grabbed Zhao Yan's arm and said with wide eyes.

"Before, your two teachers personally checked the pulse of the eldest brother. It is asserted that the eldest brother only has seven days left at most, and now that one day has passed, there are only six days left, and in these six days, the eldest brother may ...... at any time Alas~" When Zhao Yan said the end, he couldn't help but have tears in the corners of his eyes, and finally turned his grief into a long sigh.

"This ...... How is this possible, when I checked my eldest brother's pulse a month ago, his condition had not deteriorated to this point? Zhao Hao said to himself with a look of disbelief when he heard this. Although he was afraid of Zhao Ji, the relationship between his brothers was still very deep, and he also respected Zhao Ji very much, and now he heard that his beloved brother could die at any time, which made him really unacceptable for a while, and tears in his eyes welled up all of a sudden.

"The eldest brother already knew that his body was not good, so he asked the Zhilu Gu Divine Medicine to perform life-sustaining acupuncture, which made his condition stable to a certain extent. I guess you didn't diagnose the situation of the eldest brother at that time. Seeing Zhao Yan's tearful face, Zhao Yan also felt soft in his heart. He comforted him at the moment.

"I see, no wonder I felt a little weird when I took my eldest brother's pulse, but I didn't think much about it at the time, if I had known that this was the case, I should have been more serious, maybe I could have known my eldest brother's true condition earlier." Zhao Hao said with some distress at this time. His face was also full of chagrin.

"Fourth brother, don't blame yourself, even if you know what the real condition of the eldest brother is, the eldest brother's body has completely collapsed at that time, and there is no cure at all, and this matter is very important. Big brother will definitely find a way to keep it secret, so it's normal that you don't notice it. Zhao Yan comforted again at this time, even Zhilugu and Cao Yu were helpless against Zhao Yan's illness, let alone Zhao Yan, who had not yet become a teacher.

Although Zhao Yan's words were very reasonable, Zhao Yan still couldn't let go, especially thinking that Zhao Yan might die at any time, which made him even more sad and burst into tears, and after a while, he suddenly turned around and left, which made Zhao Yan grab him and say, "Why are you going?" ”

"I'm going to enter the palace, and I want to see my eldest brother for the last time no matter what!" Zhao Hao said with a firm expression.

"No, the eldest brother's time is still in secrecy, except for the Queen Mother and the imperial sister-in-law, only you and I are left to know, if you break into the palace so recklessly, what if the news is revealed, and compared to the eldest brother's condition, the most important thing now is to find a suitable crown prince for our Great Song Dynasty, I came here for this matter!" Hearing that Zhao Hao was about to enter the palace, Zhao Yan also shook his head with a firm face and said, Zhao Hao didn't know the news that Zhao Hao was seriously ill before, but now that he knows, then he must not leave until the prince is elected.

"Do you still need to choose, if the eldest brother leaves an edict to pass on the throne, then just follow it, if the eldest brother does not leave an edict, then the third brother will directly ascend the throne, anyway, with your ability and reputation, as well as the merits you have made for our Great Song Dynasty over the years, it is natural to ascend to the throne!" Zhao Yan said a little strange when he heard this, and when he finally let Zhao Yan ascend the throne, he had a natural expression, as if Zhao Yan's accession to the throne was not a big deal.

"It would be nice if things were that simple, the eldest brother woke up once yesterday, and then told me that he had never made up his mind which prince to pass the throne to, so he handed over the matter of selecting the prince to me, and then passed out, so I must now pick out the prince before the eldest brother dies, and I just happened to meet you again, so you can stay and help me!" Zhao Yan smiled bitterly, spread his hands and said.

Hearing this, Zhao Yan finally understood the reason why Zhao Yan didn't stay in the palace and didn't go to the government hall to deal with government affairs, but came to the elementary school with a few princes, but he immediately said with some confusion: "Third brother, you don't seem to be very familiar with the eldest brother's son, why didn't the eldest brother choose a prince by himself, but handed over this matter to you?" ”

"I don't know what the reason is, it is estimated that the imperial sister-in-law has not given birth, and the eldest brother has many sons, so he can't make up his mind for a while, but now he suddenly fell ill and fell into a coma, so he gave me an unfinished holy decree and asked me to help him complete this matter." Zhao Yan made a helpless expression at this time and said, although he trusted Zhao Hao very much, but the less people knew about Zhao Yan's two holy decrees for himself, the better, except for Cao Ying, Zhao Yan didn't plan to tell anyone.

Hearing Zhao Yan's speculation, Zhao Yan also felt that there was some truth, and he no longer bothered about this question, and began to carefully inquire about Zhao Yan's physical condition, and how Zhao Yan planned to choose the crown prince? Zhao Yan did not hide this, not only told Zhao Yan about Zhao Yan's body, but also planned to let Zhao Yan and the five of them go to school with the students, and try to observe their character in just a few days, so as to select the right candidate.

"By the way, I will give you a task in the past few days, you take the time to carefully check the body of the five children to see if there are any hidden diseases, especially that Zhao Jun, it seems that his health is not particularly good, you have to pay attention to it, as the crown prince, not to mention the others, the body must be healthy, otherwise if something happens in the future, then there will inevitably be another turmoil in my Great Song Dynasty." Zhao Yan said to Zhao Yan with a serious face.

"I know, I'll get this done as soon as possible!" Zhao Yan wiped a handful of tears when he heard this, and at the same time finally dispelled the idea of visiting Zhao Yan in the palace, after all, the matter of selecting the crown prince in front of him is not only important, but also not very urgent, and it is indeed a bit difficult to rely on Zhao Yan alone.

Just when Zhao Yan was talking to Zhao Hao, suddenly the entire Tokyo elementary school rang a rapid bell, and then Zhao Yan heard the sound of Mr. saying "class is over" from the bamboo house not far away, and the whole classroom immediately became jubilant, and when Mr. left with the books, the students in the classroom immediately rushed out of the classroom like wild horses, or fought or prepared to go home, and the entire elementary school immediately became a sea of noise.

As soon as the school bell rang, the five Zhao Yan who came with Zhao Yan were startled, and then saw so many peers playing together, which made them look envious, although they were princes, but they were too bored in the palace, they usually didn't even have a playmate, and they only saw a few other brothers, and now they saw so many peers at once, and they had so much fun, which made them also have the idea of wanting to participate.

Zhao Yan also noticed the look of longing in the eyes of Zhao Tong's five princes at this time, and immediately saw him step next to Zhao Tong and them, then squatted down and reached out to touch their little heads, and said with a smile: "In the next time, you will come to school every day like the children here, but you can't reveal your identity, so as not to be used by someone with a heart!" ”

"Really, can we also go to elementary school in Tokyo?" Hearing Zhao Yan's words, Zhao Shen, who had the most cheerful personality, asked excitedly at the moment.

"Of course it's true, will I still lie to you, Third Uncle?" Zhao Yan smiled and affirmed again, but unfortunately it was a little late today, so I could only wait until tomorrow to bring Zhao Yan and them into the classroom, and then observe their reaction to coming to an unfamiliar environment, which is also an important test for selecting the crown prince.

In the evening, Zhao Yan took Zhao Tong and them to live in the school, Zhao Yan and Ya'er did not leave, they rested in the other two rooms, and so on the next morning, Zhao Yan called Zhao Yan and them early, and then dressed, washed and ate, and at the same time, the test on them finally officially began.
