Soon after the five princes left, Zhao Qingxi came to the East Palace.

After not seeing her for more than ten days, Zhao Qingxi's whole person was pale and thin, and the well-fitting official robe that had been ordered earlier was now worn on her, loose and saggy, and it looked like it would fall down as soon as the wind blew.

Hua Yan was startled when she saw her, and she was also startled when she saw Hua Yan.

Zhao Qingxi knew that Hua Yan was infected with a cold and couldn't go to the early dynasty, but he didn't expect it to be so serious, and now when he saw her, he asked nervously, "Crown princess, you've been here for more than ten days, why haven't you been well?" How can I get sick like this? What does the miracle doctor say? ”

Hua Yan smiled and asked her to sit down, and said what she had said to the fifth prince.

Zhao Qingxi is not better fooled than the fifth prince, she always feels that something is wrong, Hua Yan's appearance is really worrying to look at, she lowered her voice, "Crown Princess, if there is something, you can't hide it, is there not enough medicinal materials in the East Palace?" Or is there any good medicine that is hard to find? ”

She knew that in the past six months, whether it was the Imperial Pharmacy or the East Palace, the medication was very expensive, and countless good medicines would not be used for many days. Now that Hua Yan is sick, if it is a scarce medicine that is not available in the East Palace, she is afraid that she will not dare to post the imperial list for medicine, so as not to be known by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and mess with his heart.

Hua Yan shook her head and said with a smile, "My physical physique is not very good, a wind chill, and more than ten days of illness is not a long time, you can rest assured, there is no day to stop, there is no disease in the world that he can't cure." ”

Zhao Qingxi looked at Mama Fang who was waiting on the side, "Mama, come on." ”

Mama Fang is also in a hurry these days, she also faintly feels that Huayan's body is not quite right, she did not have a fever a few days ago, and she has started a fever in the last two days, although it is not high, but the low fever does not go away, and it is not a good thing, but even if she tells Zhao Qingxi, Lord Zhao is not a doctor, so she must only be in a hurry.

So, she followed Hua Yan's words and said, "Back to Lord Zhao, the divine doctor said that it was okay. ”

Zhao Qingxi could only nod and change the topic solemnly, "Crown Princess, I just got the news, you and the Fifth Prince sent Xia Ze and the Eleventh Prince to the Divine Doctor Valley?" I want to ask for an order to go to the Valley of the Divine Doctor, I have read many books since I was a child, and I dare not say that I am proficient in the art of war, but I am also very deep. ”

Hua Yan shook her head, "Earlier, I was thinking about you going, but after thinking about it, I thought that you should stay in the capital." Now 70,000 soldiers and horses have been transferred from the inner city, and there are only 10,000 soldiers and horses left in the capital, you have also seen that I am in the army, and I have more than enough strength to attack the capital. ”

Zhao Qingxi originally had the intention of persuading Hua Yan to let her go to the Divine Medicine Valley, but now when she heard her say this, she immediately dispelled her thoughts and nodded, "What the crown princess said is that since this is the case, I won't ask for my life." From today onwards, I will stay in the East Palace. ”

Hua Yan's safety and health are now the top priority, if something happens to her and His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is afraid that he will go crazy. Su Zizhi didn't have to make much effort, I was afraid that he would win without a fight. Nanchu is inseparable from the crown princess, and even more inseparable from His Royal Highness the prince.

Hua Yan nodded, "Okay, if there is nothing to do in the Zhao Mansion, you will live in the East Palace, and you will also be a backbone." ”

On the same day, after Xia Ze and the eleventh prince hurriedly came to see Hua Yan, they asked for a few words of advice from Hua Yan's mouth, and hurriedly left the capital with 70,000 soldiers and horses in the inner city with the staff of the East Palace and went to the Valley of the Divine Doctor.

Yun Yi still didn't listen to Hua Yan's arrangement, so he didn't follow, and sent a few twelve Yunwei to follow. He always remembered that when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince left Beijing, he gave him a death order, no matter what, even if it was the order of the crown princess, everything else could be obeyed, except for the same, that is, he couldn't leave her, especially now that the crown princess was so sick and in a bad situation, so he knelt in front of Hua Yan to ask for guilt, let Hua Yan take back his life, and replace someone else.

Hua Yan didn't expect Yun Chi to give such an order, and it wasn't that Yun Yi had to protect Xia Ze and the Eleventh Prince, she supported Yun Yi, but also with a little selfishness, afraid that when she was really in bad health, Yun Yi told Yun Chi and messed up Yun Chi's heart, then it would be over.

Therefore, she looked at Yun Yi, stiffened her face, and said in a deep voice, "It's okay if you don't go to the Divine Medicine Valley, but you must promise me one thing, without my permission, you are not allowed to report to His Royal Highness the Prince." Even when I'm bedridden. ”

Yun Yi looked at Hua Yan with a white face, the crown princess has been sick these days, and he also felt that something was wrong, and he didn't know whether to tell His Highness. Now he didn't dare to agree to Huayan, and he struggled.

Hua Yan saw that he was loyal, and it was not difficult for him, "I didn't say that I would really have an accident, it's just that he is far away in Guanling Mountain, and he is bent on dealing with Su Zizhi, you know how difficult Su Zizhu is to deal with, there will be no time for me to have an accident." So, as a last resort, don't tell him what I'm doing. If you can't even do this, it will harm your Highness, even if he is by my side, if I really have something, he will be helpless, right? ”

Yun Yi hesitated for a moment and nodded, "My subordinates listen to the crown princess." ”

Hua Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

The inner city was empty with 70,000 soldiers and horses. The major mansions got the news and knew that the soldiers and horses in the inner city were transferred, but they didn't know where they were transferred, but since the emperor and the five princes did not discuss this matter in the court, they were silent for a while and did not dare to talk about it.

A few of the people noticed that the city was sparsely guarded, but other than that, everything was in order.

Hua Yan made a decree and ordered Zhao Qingxi to assist in the dispatch of soldiers and horses in the inner city, although the court was quite surprised, he did not question it. Now that the courtiers know that the crown princess is sick and has not been well for more than ten days, the emperor has repeatedly ordered that they must not disturb the princess's cultivation, and the courtiers rarely agree that there is no objection, but hope that the princess will get better soon.

In today's capital, after purging the rebellious ministers and thieves, the courtiers have no dissenting intentions, and naturally they all look forward to the good of Nanchu, the princess, His Royal Highness the prince who is far away from the chaos, the good of An Zaifu and General Mei, and the early pacification of the civil strife.

Five days later, Hua Yan still had a low-grade fever, and the whole person was top-heavy and had no strength to even get out of bed.

After all, the queen mother has lived a lifetime, and Hua Yan has something to hide in her heart, even with the sky, Hua Yan's body is not as cold as she said, it is good to recuperate, it has been nearly 20 days, and it is getting worse day by day, she is not blind, she can see it.

She didn't dare to cry in front of Hua Yan, and forced Hua Yan to ask the sky endlessly.

Duchess Jingguo was terrified when she looked at Hua Yan every day, and she also followed the Queen Mother to ask a clear understanding and see what was going on with Hua Yan's body.

Tiannon's hair was numb when he was forced to ask by two women, and because Huayan's current situation was so tricky that he wanted to scratch his scalp. finally stomped her feet, "When she was in the Northland, in order to save the people and protect the reputation of His Royal Highness the Prince's benevolence, she exhausted her original spiritual power, and now this is a backlash." When you ask me, I don't understand, but if I can explain it, I can save her. It's useless for you to force me, or do you save it yourself? ”

The Queen Mother trembled the corners of her mouth, her body trembled, and the Duchess of Jingguo had a white face, and she was speechless for a while.

At this moment, someone outside hurriedly came to Phoenix East Garden, "Report!" Crown Princess, there are 100,000 soldiers and horses thirty miles outside the city! Under the banner of the King of Lingnan! ”

Mama Fang wanted to stop her, the messenger reported too quickly, and when she hurriedly ran out of the door, the messenger had finished reporting. Mama Fang's face turned white, and she asked the messenger urgently, "How come there are 50,000 Lingnan soldiers and horses who have come thirty miles away?" Are you sure you read that right? ”

The messenger gave his hand, "It's true, I haven't been mistaken." ”

Mama Fang stomped her foot and ran back to the house.

Hua Yan was groggy and was asleep, she was woken up when she heard the voice, she opened her eyes and heard the words of the messenger clearly, she slowly struggled to sit up, Mama Fang rushed into the house, saw that Hua Yan had woken up, and hurriedly reached out to help her up, "Princess, don't worry, the messenger said that it was only 50,000 soldiers and horses, and it was not so easy to attack." ”

Hua Yan didn't say much, only held her forehead and said weakly, "Help me get out of bed, I'll go out and have a look." ”

Mama Fang immediately persuaded, "You should lie down, there are five princes here, and there are also Lord Zhao and Master Gu, you ......"

"If you dare to bring 50,000 soldiers to the capital, you must be 50,000 elite soldiers, and the person who leads the troops must be very powerful, I am afraid that Lord Zhao and Lord Gu are not opponents. The fifth prince did not have a deep understanding of the art of war and did not know how to use soldiers. Don't worry, my own body knows by myself, it's okay, I can still move, I want to go out and have a look, I want to know who got the news that the soldiers and horses in the inner city have been transferred out in such a timely manner, and took this opportunity to come to the capital to draw a salary from the bottom of the kettle. ”

Mama Fang could only help Hua Yan get up, dress her properly, and help her out of the room.

Hua Yan came to the door, looked at the messenger and asked, "You said that 50,000 soldiers and horses are flying the banner of Lingnan?" So can you find out who is leading the troops? ”

The messenger shook his head, "Back to the crown princess, I haven't found out yet." ”

"Keep exploring!" Hua Yan instructed, "Come and report to me after finding out." ”

The messenger should have been, and immediately went.
