There were bandits all the way, but he didn't see the black-clothed people who appeared frequently in the past, Lin Xiao was a little surprised.

I thought that I would meet several waves of people in black on the way, and this road would definitely be forging ahead, but who knows, except for the disturbing bandits, there didn't seem to be any people in black, which made Lin Xiao a lot easier.

But while reassuring, Lin Xiao was confused again.

Judging from the temper of the man in black in the past, how could he let himself go so easily, I am afraid that after learning the news of himself, the first person to rush forward and want to kill himself was the man in black.

The road was really a little calm, Lin Xiao felt that things must be more than that simple, and he always felt uneasy.

Lin Xiao felt irritable and couldn't settle down at ease, so he simply opened his eyes and looked at the scenery passing outside the carriage to relax his thoughts.

"I hope I'm overthinking."

The wind and rain in the capital have always been very violent, fighting openly and secretly, Lin Xiao was thinking about what happened to the capital all the way, and the emperor must have summoned him back to Beijing in such a hurry.

"My lord, the city gate is in front, it's not early, it's better to stay outside the city for a night now, and it's not in a hurry to enter the city at dawn."

Yao Qi always felt that something would definitely happen tonight, and now that he was in the limelight, what might be the risk of adults entering the city now, the matter had not been investigated clearly, and adults must not have an accident.

Lin Xiao glanced in the direction of the city gate, the capital at this time must be choppy, where is he still in the mood to spend the night outside the city, if something really happens to the emperor, then wouldn't he become a sinner as a minister?

"It's better not to spend the night outside the city, even if it's overnight today, you have to rush into the capital. Everyone is following, and I will speed up and get to the palace before dark. ”

Lin Xiao didn't even sit in the carriage, he just got down and rode a horse and waved a whip and rushed towards the capital, Yao Qi, Zhang Meng and others didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly followed.

As soon as the city gate guards saw that Lin Xiao was returning to Beijing, they immediately opened the city gate that had just been closed, and the guards received the emperor's holy decree in the morning, asking Lin Xiao and others to hurry to the palace, saying that they had something important to discuss.

Long Yuyan returned to the palace and was taken back to her bedroom by the palace maid, the emperor had a decree, the princess went out of the palace without authorization, and was punished for thinking about it behind closed doors for a month, if she still did not repent and continued to think about it behind closed doors.

Long Yuyan wanted to ask her emperor brother for clarification, but was stopped by the guards outside the door.

"Your Majesty, the lower officials have been ordered to return to Beijing, I don't know what happened in the capital?"

In the imperial study, Lin Xiao didn't see the emperor's shadow left and right, but heard the emperor's voice, "Aiqing, you're back." ”

Lin Xiao hurriedly knelt on the ground and pleaded guilty to the emperor, originally thought that there was nothing to do, but now it seems that the emperor really has something important for him to do.

"It's late for the lower officials to return to Beijing by order, and I ask the emperor to surrender!"

In the room in the imperial study, the emperor was lying on the bed, and it was the father-in-law next to the emperor who was talking. Lin Xiao found that something was wrong, so he had to go in to see what was going on.

"Lin Xiao, where is the emperor?"

Long Yuyan secretly escaped from the dormitory by herself, just to see what kind of fame her emperor brother was doing.

Looking at the angry Long Yuyan, Lin Xiao was a little afraid to speak, but he still listened to his heart and pointed to the imperial study, "The emperor is resting inside, but there must be something inside." ”

Long Yuyan has always been reckless, and when she heard Lin Xiao say that there was a situation inside, she rushed in without saying a word, but what she saw after rushing in made her startled.

"What's going on, say, why is the emperor's good man lying in bed now? What's going on? ”

The two of them entered the room before and after, and saw that the emperor was lying on the bed, his face was black, his lips were purple, and he looked seriously ill at first glance, but they had been out for more than a month, why did the emperor become like this, and the emperor's body was not fine when he left?

When the eunuch who was serving with the emperor saw that Princess Long Yuyan was back, he hurriedly stepped forward and knelt at Long Yuyan's feet, his body trembling uncontrollably.

"Back to the princess, the emperor has been poisoned, and all the imperial doctors in the palace have seen it, but there is no way, the emperor has not been to the early court for the same day, and if it goes on like this, I am afraid that those who rebel will take advantage of this opportunity to rebel, the princess originally did not want the princess to know, but now the situation is in crisis, tomorrow the ministers will go to the court, if the emperor does not go, I am afraid that there will really be a problem."

The eunuch cried with snot and tears, Long Yuyan was very upset, there were always people who wanted to harm the emperor's brother, no, she must find out this person, she couldn't just watch the emperor's brother lying on the bed like this.

Lin Xiao didn't look like he was lying when he looked at the eunuchs, but wasn't all the food that the emperor ate on weekdays after the eunuchs tried it? Why is it still poisoned? What's going on here?

Without waiting for Lin Xiao to understand, a group of imperial doctors hurriedly took the medicine they had boiled into the imperial study, and saw Long Yuyan kneeling down one after another, at this time Long Yuyan was in no mood to care about these etiquette.

"Excuse me, excuse me, come and see how the emperor's body is doing?"

The imperial doctor asked the emperor for the pulse one by one, but everyone's face was not very good-looking after reading it, the emperor had been sick for a while, and during this time, the imperial hospital would be able to come up with all the methods used, but it was still useless, the emperor's body was not as good as day by day, and if this continued, the emperor's longevity was not much.

"Back to the princess, the poison in the emperor's body has begun to spread, if you can't find an antidote, there is nothing you can do."

After saying this, the imperial doctors lowered their heads and didn't dare to look at Long Yuyan anymore, as the imperial doctor, they couldn't take care of the emperor's body, it was really their dereliction of duty!

Long Yuyan bypassed these kneeling people, came to the emperor's side, sat on the chair next to the bed, reached out to hold the emperor's hand, did not shed a tear, but stared at the emperor's face motionless.

Lin Xiao called all the eunuchs to the imperial study outside for questioning, and the top priority was to find out the person who poisoned him, and only by finding this person could the emperor wake up.

"I called you here, I believe you all know in your hearts why the emperor has been ill for a long time, let's talk about it, what happened when the emperor had an accident?"

None of the eunuchs said a complete sentence, all of them were in Lin Xiao's roundabouts, and it seems that some of these people have unclean hands and feet.

"Okay, I know that you are all loyal to the emperor, so naturally you won't think about harming the emperor, but now the palace is beginning to discuss, if the emperor doesn't get any better, everyone will be arrested and put in prison to ask for guilt, and it will be even more difficult to think about it whether there is a crime or not."

The eunuchs were all shocked by Lin Xiao's words and didn't dare to speak, but they didn't want to go to prison, Lin Xiao didn't force these people anymore, on the contrary, he came to the ground all of a sudden, and began to seriously observe everyone's reactions, if it was really related to the emperor's poisoning, then this person must be very panicked now, and he will definitely go out of his way.

It's just that these people are all one reaction, so many people, Lin Xiao can't finish it at all.

"My lord, we are the emperor's closest minions, the emperor treats the minions well, and the minions are too late to be grateful, how can they think of harming the emperor?"

Lin Xiao checked the situation of the emperor's poisoning again, and sure enough, he still found the clues, it seems that those people have entered the palace, so it is not easy to find out the instructions behind the scenes.

"This poison is the same as the poison in the elders of the Heavenly Machine Pavilion, if you dare to tell a lie, you will definitely come to your head."

The imperial doctor hurriedly kowtowed on the ground, and what they found out was indeed the same as the poison in the elders of Tianji Pavilion, but the emperor's condition was even more serious than those people, and there was no way to treat it.

"Yes, it's the same as the case of Tianji Pavilion, I have checked all the medical skills but still don't have a clue, so if it goes on like this, I can only take the emperor first."

In fact, the imperial doctors in the past will not exist for a long time, the life and death of the emperor is their life and death, and when the emperor dies, they naturally have to follow and protect the emperor's safety along the way.

Lin Xiao walked back and forth in the imperial study for a long time, still without the slightest thought, to see that the hour is not early, and it will soon be early in the court, the emperor has no way to go to the court now, and he must go to the court today.

There is one person who is most suitable to do this, but I am afraid that she does not have that guts.

Long Yuyan was too sad because of the emperor's affairs and fainted directly yesterday, Lin Xiao didn't bother, on the contrary, he asked the maid to follow Long Yuyan to serve, for fear that something would happen.

There is still half an hour before the time of the early dynasty, and she must be cheered up to go to the early dynasty on behalf of the emperor, Lin Xiao came to Long Yuyan and knelt on the ground, clasped his hands into fists, and made a big salute to Long Yuyan.

"Princess, the situation in the court is turbulent, and the emperor is now in danger, so he must think of a way to save my dynasty. Now only the princess can turn the tide, and in half an hour you will go to the early court, and the lower official implores the princess to wait for the enemy emperor to preside over the government and stabilize the hearts of the ministers. ”

Not to mention the court, her emperor brother has never even seen the excerpts, and now let her go to the court, isn't this chasing ducks to the shelves? Besides, if she goes to the court, will those ministers have no opinion? Since ancient times, there has never been a woman in politics, can she open this precedent?

"Lin Xiao, it's not that I don't want to go, it's just that you know that I will be just a woman, even if I go to the court, those people may not listen, what if it is because I make the situation more complicated?"

Long Yuyan just woke up and heard such exciting news, and she almost fainted. Fortunately, she hasn't been weak to the point of being weak.

Lin Xiao also took this into consideration, he would contact the ministers in the court, as long as they worked together, the rest of the people would naturally not be able to set off any strong storms.
