In August, Yi Huaiyu wanted to drive the expedition again, but Concubine Jing dissuaded him to no avail, so he could only hide in tears in the depths of the city gate and silently watch the army leave.

There was a loud and majestic song on the city wall, perhaps hearing this song made Yi Huaiyu feel emotional, and when he stepped on the horse and looked back from a hundred zhang away, he saw a thin figure holding a weaker child, just like every time he went on an expedition.

He has always wanted to take Shen Junfang to go on the expedition together, but Shen Junfang's physical condition has deteriorated, and now he has reached the point where he can't withstand the long-distance travel, and all he can do is take Yi Chenjing to stand at the head of the wall and send him off from afar. Yi Huaiyu didn't know why Shen Junfang took Yi Chenjing with him instead of other princes, if Shen Junfang was the most optimistic prince, Yi Chenxuan should be the closest ...... It should be the crown prince Yi Chenyu, isn't it?

The singing gradually weakened, the ranks gradually moved away, and a series of coughing voices broke the vicissitudes of life, and the young Seventh Prince of Da Yao grabbed Shen Junfang's sleeve tightly and gently slapped his back for him sensibly.

"Your Highness must take a good look at the emperor, he is the greatest king in this world, no one can match." Bowing down and hugging Yi Chenjing, Shen Jun smiled palely, "When Your Highness grows up, you will also be a brave general, go into battle to kill the enemy, protect your family and defend the country, among all the princes, only Your Highness has the most talent for soldiers, and he is also the person who is most similar to the emperor." ”

Yi Chenjing didn't seem to understand Shen Junfang's statement, shook his head, and lowered his little face with a little loss: "But my father only likes the five emperor brothers, and he doesn't like me." ”

"Oh, how could it be. The emperor just hopes that His Royal Highness can be more independent and stronger, and even if he doesn't have any preference, he can grow into a talent who can be independent, which is the proof that the emperor gives hope to His Royal Highness," Shen Junfang comforted Yi Chenjing, who was very sensitive at a young age, but his eyes were unwilling to meet him.

Which prince Yi Huaiyu's heart is biased towards, he has seen it very clearly in recent years, the fifth prince Yi Chenxuan, who is more mature than his actual age, is smart and steady, if it weren't for the system of the eldest son as the crown prince in Yaoguo, then Yi Chenxuan must be the best candidate for the next Yaohuang, even he thinks so. However, Shen Junfang still likes Yi Chenjing and Yi Chenyu more, these two children are very smart, and they are simpler than Yi Chenxuan in comparison, and Yi Chenxuan's shrewdness and tactfulness have always made him a little resistant.

Who should pass the throne to, who will be in charge of Jiangshan Sheji in the future, Shen Junfang is not worried about this issue, it seems that Yi Huaiyu has already planned, as for what Yi Huaiyu thinks, Shen Junfang is not clear, the days when the two of them have nothing to say have long been a thing of the past, even if he misses it, now he can only be an ordinary minister, a young national teacher who seems to be favored and trustworthy but is in a dilemma.

"The emperor's suspicion of you and the queen's mother has never been broken, if you don't want to affect her......"

On a night when the stars were sparse, Sui Liang suddenly came to the door, and after leaving such a half sentence, he turned around and left, Shen Junfang speculated countless times what the second half of the sentence that he didn't finish could be, but the result was unsatisfactory. Maybe it's because he chose a completely different path from Sosui Liang, even though they were both far-sighted emperors, and their ideas and opinions were always different.

"Uncle National Teacher, Uncle National Teacher," a panicked cry came from under the city wall, Shen Jun looked down, and Yi Chenyu, who was out of breath, was tilting his head and shouting hoarsely.

Shen Jun flew down the city wall quickly: "Why did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince come here?" Is something wrong. ”

Yi Chenyu's small body trembled, his face was hasty, and his voice trembled out of tune: "The queen mother, the queen mother is injured, there are assassins,"

Shen Jun gasped, and didn't care that the two princes were still behind, so he took a step and rushed desperately towards Huanqing Palace, his chest was about to explode along the way, and every time he moved, it was extremely painful.

When they arrived, there were already many people standing in the courtyard of Huanqing Palace, Tao Shihai and several concubines who lived closer were also present, and Sima Tulan was surrounded by them in the center, and it seemed that there was no big problem. Seeing that Sima Tulan was fine, Shen Jun let out a long breath and stumbled through the crowd to stand in front of Sima Tulan: "The queen mother is injured." What about the assassins, did you catch it? ”

"Hongu is fine." Sima Tulan shook her head, acting more calmly than the others, "The assassin suddenly broke into the inner hall wearing a guard's robe, but fortunately, Yuzhi was present at the time and tried his best to stop him, so he didn't succeed. Before the guards heard the call for help, the assassin fled over the wall, and Gonggong Tao had already sent someone to chase him, if no one rescued him, he should be able to catch him. ”

Without waiting for Shen Jun to speak, the imperial concubine next to him took the first step to cover her heart and shouted: "This is worth it." The emperor only left on the front foot, and then someone assassinated the queen, if he couldn't catch that villain, how could the harem let the sisters live in peace. The national teacher has to catch the bad guys quickly, the night is long and dreamy, who knows which concubine will be poisoned next time. ”

"The imperial concubine is energetic, so she is not afraid of assassins." Yi Chenyu, who followed Shen Jun's release, said a sentence coldly, and immediately made the chattering crowd silent, and they all snickered.

The imperial concubine is arrogant and tongue-talking, she has never been liked by Yi Huaiyu, because she is bored and takes pleasure in telling right and wrong all day long, coupled with her naturally loud voice and strong energy, these four words describe her very appropriately, but the sarcasm is too strong, and it adds a layer of ridiculousness to the young prince.

The imperial concubine naturally heard the sarcasm in Yi Chenyu's words, but the prince's status was higher than that of the imperial concubine, even if she was angry, she had to laugh and pretend not to care on the surface, she couldn't compete with a child with a higher status than herself. Looking at Sima Tulan with a smile, the imperial concubine was expecting that the queen mother would come out and reprimand Yi Chenyu for two sentences, but who knew that Sima Tulan ignored it, and seemed to agree with Yi Chenyu's "disrespectful words".

"Since it's just a false alarm, it's all gone, each palace has sent additional guards to guard it, pay more attention to the night patrol, search for assassins and other things, Gonggong Tao and the forbidden military camp will work hard and run more, whoever has any findings or clues will inform the palace in time." Hugging Yi Chenyu and Yi Chenjing tightly, Sima Dalan neatly sent away the people gathered in the Huanqing Palace.

When the crowd dispersed in twos and threes, the huge Huanqing Palace returned to cold silence, Sima Dolan squatted down and kissed Yi Chenyu lightly on the forehead, and solemnly folded the hands of the two children together: "Jing'er, let Yu'er stay in the dust Xuan to rest tonight, he usually doesn't have much contact with other princes, and the royal brother will get closer to you and him, and leave him to you and your mother to protect, so that the palace can rest assured." ”

Yi Chenjing nodded vigorously, his firm eyes did not look like a seven-year-old child at all, and Yi Huaiyu's demeanor was vaguely seen between his eyebrows. Sima Tulan looked at him and was stunned for a moment, then handed over the two of them to the guards outside to send them to the dust Xuan, turned around and walked back to the center of the courtyard, and stood quietly.

"Come out, I knew you were going to stay."

The shadows of the trees in the corner moved, and the rustling of clothes and the sound of coughing sounded at the same time.
