In the imperial palace of the capital, it has long been a mess.

The emperor was seriously ill and fainted, and the imperial doctors in the palace were even more at a loss for his condition, no one could see what kind of illness the emperor had, and there was no way to solve the problem.

The six princes have been busy running around these days, no matter what it is, they are taking care of the emperor personally.

But even so, the emperor's condition has never improved, but he has been lying on the bed, fainting day by day, tossing and turning when sleeping, and it is difficult to sleep, but it is difficult to wake up after sleeping.

After learning about these things in the palace, the Hui family also became a mess.

After all, the Hui family has followed the emperor for many years, and when they learned that the emperor was seriously ill, Hui Yuzhong was inevitably worried.

Hui Yuzhong kept walking back and forth in the room, his heart was becoming more and more anxious and nervous, and he wished that he could enter the palace to visit the emperor, after all, no matter what, he had no way to ignore the seriously ill emperor.

Of course, the Wu family already knew about these things, but the fact that the emperor was seriously ill also made her more and more suspicious that the six princes were doing something in it.

Otherwise, the imperial doctor in the palace has prescribed so many medicines to the emperor before and after, and his condition has not improved so far, but it seems extremely suspicious.

Hui Yuzhong was really relieved, and after careful consideration, he still looked at the Wu family and said with a solemn face, "Lady, if it really doesn't work, let's invite Li Li back." ”

Now Xiao Li and Hui Shangyi are far away from the capital, in order to avoid disputes in the capital.

But the Wu clan didn't want Xiao Li to know these things at all, and then let her get involved in these worldliness.

Wu glared at Hui Yuzhong with a little dissatisfaction, and directly reached out and patted his head, "Hui Yuzhong, Hui Yuzhong, I said that you are a brainless person, and you don't want to think about it yourself, if you invite Li Li back now, if the six princes know about this matter, do you think Li Li will be able to leave the capital alive?" ”

Perhaps the reason why the emperor is seriously ill now is caused by the six princes.

If they rashly invited Xiao Li back, the six princes would definitely blame Xiao Li for all the reasons why they couldn't cure the emperor.

At that time, I am afraid that Xiao Li will have to bear all the responsibilities for no reason.

Although the Wu clan was unwilling to let Hui Yuzhong invite Xiao Li back from thousands of miles away, it did not mean that the Wu clan would ignore this matter.

She secretly sent someone to investigate the emperor's illness, and secretly wrote a letter and sent someone to Xiao Li, who was thousands of miles away.

Because the secret guards under Hui Shangyi's hand have been keeping an eye on the affairs in the capital, when the Wu clan sent a letter, it was directly handed over to the writer.

When he learned that this was a letter from Wu, he didn't dare to delay for a moment, and hurriedly rushed to where Xiao Li was.

In the letter, Wu did not inform the emperor of his current situation, but only asked Xiao Li for medicine to solve such symptoms.

Fortunately, Xiao Li knew something about this disease, and soon developed an antidote.

When the Wu clan received the pill sent back by Xiao Li, after careful consideration, they decided to secretly give the pill to the Eighth Prince.

Compared with the sixth prince, although the power of the eighth prince is not much, he has always been gentle and elegant, and he has no intention of fighting for the throne, and it is absolutely impossible to murder the emperor for the sake of snatching the throne.

In fact, when the Eighth Prince saw the Wu Clan who suddenly appeared in his mansion, he was more or less surprised in his heart.

After all, no matter what, he had never negotiated with the Wu clan at all before.

"His Royal Highness the Eighth Prince, this is the pill that Weichen begged for, it can solve the emperor's current condition, and I hope you can send Weichen to the palace for him."

When the Wu clan said these words, the Eighth Emperor realized her intentions.

Wu and Hui Yuzhong have long lost the weight of speaking in front of the emperor because of the six princes, but the two of them attach great importance to the emperor, even if they are wronged in their hearts, they are bent on thinking about the emperor.

The Eighth Prince understood the good intentions of the Wu Clan, took the pill she handed over, and nodded firmly, "General Wu, don't worry, since you believe in the words of this palace, then this palace will definitely do what you say." ”

After saying goodbye to the Wu family, the eighth prince immediately rushed to the palace with the pill.

But he never thought that the people of the six princes had already spread all over the palace and outside, and when he learned that the eighth prince had specially sent medicine, he went out to greet him.

On the surface, the sixth prince pretended to be concerned, "Why did the eighth brother have time to see his father today?" ”

The Eighth Emperor was originally a person without scheming, and when he heard the words of the Sixth Emperor, he did not hesitate to explain at all, "Sixth Emperor Brother, the younger brother got some pills that can suppress his father's condition, so he specially sent them over to let his father give it a try, I don't know ...... Sixth Emperor Brother"

Before the Eighth Prince could finish speaking, the pill in his hand had already fallen into the hands of the Sixth Prince.

"Eighth brother, the situation in the palace is more complicated now, let's let the imperial brother send it over for you."

At this time, there was a slight malicious smile hidden in the eyes of the six princes.

The eighth prince didn't care so much at all, he just cared about the emperor's physical condition, if the emperor could get better, he would be completely relieved.

Therefore, the Eighth Emperor nodded and responded, "Since this is the case, then it will be troublesome for the Sixth Emperor Brother." ”

Since the emperor took the pills sent by the Eighth Prince, the Sixth Prince did find that his condition was gradually improving.

The emperor didn't know who sent this pill at all, only that the sixth prince fed him in the end.

The sixth prince asked eagerly, "Father, how do you feel about your health these days?" Is there any improvement? ”

At the same time, he took the initiative to stretch out his hand to rub the emperor's shoulder, no matter how he looked at it, he looked very filial.

The emperor stretched out his hand to stroke his beard, only to feel that his current physical condition is much better, and the knot that has been entwined in his heart seems to have been untied, he nodded lightly, remembering that the effect of the pill is good, and he couldn't help but ask, "Sixth prince, you tell me, who sent such a good pill?" ”

When the sixth prince saw the happy expression on the emperor's face, he stood up without the slightest hesitation, he respectfully clenched his fists, and showed a slightly humble expression on his face, "Back to my father's words, this pill was bought by Erchen from the outside doctor after spending a lot of energy and time, since it can cure his father's illness, it means that Erchen's efforts are worth it." ”

The emperor praised the six princes again and again and gave him a lot of rewards.

But the sixth prince didn't mention the real source of this pill, but when the eighth prince asked about the emperor's condition, he didn't hesitate to give a negative answer, "Eighth brother, the pill you sent to the imperial brother last time turned out to have no effect at all, but fortunately, the people under the imperial brother found a doctor in the rivers and lakes to save the emperor." ”

When the news that the pill did not have the slightest effect was reported back to Xiao Li, it was already a few days later.

Xiao Li looked at the prescription he had written down when he made the pill before, and couldn't help frowning, his expression became more and more solemn, but he felt that it was impossible for this to be without medicinal effect at all.

Hui Shangyi, who was standing beside Xiao Li, felt very sorry for Xiao Li, she was now pregnant, but she never let go of the idea of medicine.

"Shang Yi, what the hell do you think is wrong with this? How could the pills I made not work? ”

When he said this, Xiao Li became more and more suspicious that his medical skills were getting worse and worse because he was pregnant recently.

At the same time, Xiao Li reached out and patted her cheek, calming herself down as much as possible and tidying up her mood, she wanted to re-medicate the pill that could solve this condition.

Although the emperor had targeted the Wu family and Hui Yuzhong, as a courtier, it was impossible for Xiao Li to ignore this matter.

Thinking of this, Xiao Li went to open the scroll that he had always carried with him, and looked back and forth carefully, but he could not find the problem with this pill.

Seeing Xiao Li's face full of self-blame, Hui Shangyi just gently pulled her into his arms and comforted her in a low voice, "Li Li, this matter is not your problem at all, the person who really has the problem is the sixth prince." ”

Hearing this, Xiao Li inevitably felt a little confused.

Why is there no problem with the pill, but there is a problem with the six princes?

Xiao Li raised a pair of beautiful eyes to look at Hui Shangyi, and still couldn't help asking, "Shangyi, what do you mean by this?" ”

"The Eighth Prince doesn't care about the fight for the throne, but no matter what, if the emperor knows that the person who really contributed medicine is His Royal Highness the Eighth Prince, the final reward will also fall to His Royal Highness the Eighth Prince, not the Sixth Prince."

At the mention of this, Hui Shangyi paused for a moment and continued, "If the Sixth Prince wants to be rewarded by the Emperor, he will definitely take all the credit on himself, so he will have the cheekiness to say to His Royal Highness the Eighth Prince that the pill he gave out has no effect. ”

As Hui Shangyi guessed, the truth of the whole thing was like this, but Xiao Li never thought that the Sixth Prince would use such a despicable method.

But when he thought of how he had dealt with the Wu clan all along, Xiao Li seemed to have completely understood.

Even if Xiao Li offers medicine later, it will eventually fall into the hands of the six princes, and when the time comes, the emperor's reward and reward will be the six princes after all, not the eighth prince.

When he thought of this, Xiao Li couldn't help but scold fiercely, "These six princes are so despicable." ”
