Zhao Nan and Mingfu walked side by side at the end, whenever at this time, when a pair of their brothers and sisters walked behind two happy couples, Zhao Nan felt an indescribable embarrassment in his heart, but fortunately, Mingfu's performance was as usual, which made Zhao Nan feel a lot more relaxed.

Mingfu walked in front of Zhao Nan, face to face with Zhao Nan, walked backwards by herself, the two had nothing to say all the way, Mingfu looked at the stars in the sky for a while, and looked at the scenery on the side of the road for a while, Zhao Nan didn't bother her, just kept looking at the road under her feet to prevent her from falling down if she walked backwards like this.

"Brother, what do you want?" Mingfu suddenly spoke, breaking the silent atmosphere, and Zhao Nan was a little unexpected.

Zhao Nan smiled, and when he was just thinking about how to answer Mingfu, he didn't pay attention to Mingfu's feet, and Mingfu was tripped by the roots of the tree behind him, and he was about to fall backwards on his back. Or Zhao Nan reacted quickly, one flew out and grabbed Mingfu's waist, Mingfu was firmly fixed in his arms, Zhao Nan's face was very close to Mingfu, staring at Mingfu's eyes, Zhao Nan was a little flustered.

Zhao Nan quickly let go of Mingfu, Mingfu cut her hair and clothes in a panic, and ran forward, Zhao Nan shook her head helplessly, and said, "Run slowly, be careful of your step." Mingfu's footsteps froze, he didn't answer, he quickened his pace and walked forward, throwing Zhao Nan away for a distance.

A night full of happiness passed by, and unexpectedly, one after another was a calm and serene day, everyone watched their own small happiness, and there were some small expectations, as if the future story was developing as everyone expected.

Three months passed in such an ordinary life, Li Shimin's body seemed to be getting worse, but the pill sent by Yun Chen was always taking it, but later Li Shimin found that the pleasure brought by the pill was always short-lived, and what followed was pain.

Li Shimin can feel that although his body is still tough on the surface, he can feel it himself, the inside is empty, his body is getting weaker and weaker, and he is fighting hard every day to go to the early dynasty, Li Shimin realizes that he is wrong, and wants to quit his dependence on pills, but he can't control himself.

Li Shimin asked himself that he was a person with strong self-control, why he couldn't even quit asking a little pill, but fell deeper and deeper. Li Shimin couldn't help but wonder if someone with ulterior motives had done anything, and he didn't care about his own face, so he privately found a doctor to test the pill, but the doctor said that the pill was no different from an ordinary pill, and as for Li Shimin's doubts, the doctor couldn't find out why, so he only advised Li Shimin to quit as soon as possible.

Li Shimin thought it was true, although he had the spirit of Longma on the surface, but he had been secretly paying attention to where there was something unusual, and the emperor's wisdom was unusual.

So, Li Shimin declared to the outside world that he needed to recuperate and moved to live in Luoyang Palace, and all government affairs were sent to Luoyang from Chang'an by Li Shimin's most trusted person, and all supplies were used in Luoyang Palace.

In addition, Li Shimin only brought Ruilin as a personal attendant, and Zhao Nan accompanied him, which shows Li Shimin's trust in the two.

Li Shimin's trip to the palace has different opinions, causing a lot of speculation, and this time Li Shimin is seriously ill, the ministers once again brought up the matter of establishing the prince, and all forces are ready to move, but this time Li Shimin went to Luoyang to recuperate, and did not appoint any prince to supervise the country, which is even more puzzling, is the emperor not a suitable candidate for the prince?

Li Shimin ignored these gossips, no matter what movements in the court, he would respond to all changes with the same. On the first day of arriving at Luoyang Palace, he was locked in his room, leaving no one around to serve, even Ruilin and Zhao Nan were rushed out of the door to wait, so that the emperor could give orders.

Zhao Nan and Ruilin stood outside the door one left and one right, the atmosphere was somewhat embarrassing, when Ruilin was Su Pingqi before, the two still dealt with each other, Zhao Nan naturally didn't believe the rumors in the palace, saying that Ruilin was the righteous son of the previous chief manager, obviously a scholar from a poor background, and his original future was limitless, how could he become a eunuch?

Zhao Nan looked at Ruilin, he looked ahead, focused but focused, and looked like he was rejecting people thousands of miles away, Zhao Nan dispelled the idea of talking to Ruilin, and stood there boredly, it was a day, the room was quiet, and Li Shimin didn't have any orders.

Li Shimin's every meal was personally delivered by Ruilin, Ruilin is also very strange, what is the emperor doing in the house all day, every time Ruilin goes in to deliver food, Li Shimin is sitting on the desk, dealing with state affairs, and he can't see any abnormality.

When Ruilin sent dinner in, he deliberately said tentatively: "Long live the lord since he came out to recuperate, don't let yourself be tired, the emperor will go out for a walk after dinner, which is good for the body, don't work too hard." ”

Li Shimin smiled and said, "I know." So he sent Ruilin out.

Li Shimin will take the pill sent by Yunchen every day after eating, that is to say, Li Shimin's daily dosage is three, but Li Shimin feels that he has become more and more dependent on this pill recently, and sometimes he even takes four, Li Shimin is determined to slowly reduce the dosage for himself until he completely quits.

Today, Li Shimin only took a pill at noon when he couldn't bear it at noon before dinner, and Li Shimin was the only one who was bitter and sad in the process, and his thirst for the pill made his brain pain unbearable, but he couldn't make any sound, and he had to pretend to be calm when someone came in, but he didn't know that Li Shimin's hand holding the pen was trembling that day.

Now, a thin layer of cold sweat has appeared on Li Shimin's body, and it is time to take pills again, Li Shimin can hardly control his craving, he has been tortured a lot today, Li Shimin originally wanted to use practice calligraphy to relieve pain and suffering, but he didn't want to write a bunch of ghost drawings in the end.

Li Shimin couldn't hold back any longer, and took out a pill with a trembling twist, and after that fluttering feeling, everything returned to normal.

The next day, Li Shimin's life went on as usual, his plan was implemented flawlessly, and no one noticed his flaws.

Until the fifth day, Li Shimin did not take the pill again after taking the pill once in the morning, and after eating dinner with strong spirits, the desire for medicine ran through Li Shimin's entire body, and the pain almost tore him apart, Li Shimin's hands trembled, and his body seemed to have thousands of insects crawling through.

Li Shimin felt that he couldn't bear it any longer, so he walked to the box containing the pill, who knew that the onset of pain had reached the point that Li Shimin couldn't control, Li Shimin broke a teacup on the table, knocked over the chair, and fell to the ground.

Li Shimin was spasming in pain on the ground, Zhao Nan and Ruilin, who heard the sound, quickly rushed in, Li Shimin grabbed Ruilin's hand, trembled, and said with all his strength: "Don't, don't make a noise, go, ask the doctor to come." With that, he fainted.

Ruilin obeyed Li Shimin's instructions and invited the accompanying imperial doctor, who performed acupuncture on the emperor, and Li Shimin quickly woke up. Only the imperial doctor, Ruilin and Zhao Nan were by their side during the whole process, and after the imperial doctor diagnosed and treated, they realized that it was the emperor who forcibly quit medicine, which led to such consequences.

Li Shimin's face was pale, and he instructed the three of them many times, and the matter should not be made public.

The imperial physician prescribed a prescription for Li Shimin, and instructed the emperor: "Your Majesty, it is understandable that you want to quit such a thing as pills, but the emperor, this is a gradual process, you can't be too anxious, if you forcibly quit medicine like this, I am afraid that your life will be in danger." ”

Li Shimin pondered for a while with a blushing face, and asked, "Then how long does it take to quit medicine?" ”

The imperial doctor replied: "This abstinence is a matter that requires willpower, and the most resolute person will need at least three months, the emperor has made up his mind to quit medicine, and then cooperates with the prescription prescribed by Wei Chen to recuperate his body, and it should be effective in three months." ”

Li Shimin nodded and ordered: "Okay, just do as you say, but don't leak the news of this matter, Ruilin, you go with the imperial doctor to catch the medicine, this decoction and delivery of medicine will bother the imperial doctor to do it himself, others can't believe it, and they will claim that it is a prescription for recuperation immediately, and Zhao Nan, the safety of this Luoyang Palace will be handed over to you, and I can't leak the slightest rumor of my every move here." ”

The three men received the order and went their separate ways. Li Shimin looked out the window alone, not knowing what to ponder.

After tossing for so long, it was soon late at night, Li Shimin had already rested, Zhao Nan was about to go back to the courtyard where he lived, in order to facilitate the protection of the emperor, Zhao Nan lived in the courtyard closest to the emperor, but Zhao Nan unexpectedly saw Ruilin's footsteps hurriedly walking towards the back garden, Zhao Nan was curious for a while, so he followed.

Zhao Nan hid behind a rockery, but he didn't expect to see Ruilin quietly summon a carrier pigeon, tied the letter in his arms to the pigeon's leg and flew out, Zhao Nan looked at the direction of the carrier pigeon flying away, it should be towards Chang'an, and then look at Ruilin's skillful movements, this kind of thing should not be less.

Zhao Nan didn't know what Ruilin was doing behind his back, the shocking conspiracy they couldn't figure out, whether he also had his share in it, Zhao Nan pulled out the knife, quietly walked behind Ruilin, and was about to put the knife on Ruilin's neck, but Ruilin suddenly turned his head and looked at Zhao Nan with a chill in his eyes.
