After Xu Bai handed the jade pendant back to Zhao Jin, he walked straight behind the screen, and soon Su Yixin couldn't detect his breath.

It should be some compartment behind the screen.

"Miss Su, please come over, there is something I need your help with."

"Say it."

Since Gu Qingjue deliberately explained in the letter, this matter is definitely not an ordinary matter.

According to the relationship between Zhao Jin and Gu Qingjue, as long as she can help, she will not take Qiao, and happily let Zhao Jin say things.

"The Eight Kings are sick."

Zhao Jin's tone was solemn, and he did not gloat.

Su Yixin knew that Zhao Yuanyan, the eighth king, had a very high prestige in the court, especially in the past few years, there were many people who were reused by the official family and secretly supported the eight kings.

Why is this situation happening.

This also starts with the death of the second prince of the official family.

In February of the first year of Qingli, that is, on March 24, 1041, the second prince of the official family fell seriously ill and unfortunately died, so that the official family was over 36 years old and still had no children under his knees.

is at this age, and as soon as the prince dies, all forces are ready to move.

Even now there is still a prince in the palace.

This prince was born in September last year, and he is still only a half-year-old child, and the first two princes died at the age of three.

But today's officials are all thirty-six.

If there is an accident with this prince, the royal family will be cut off.

He also said that the eight kings were seriously ill, which caused the prying eyes of all forces, just because when the queen mother Liu E was still alive, she once took King Ding, that is, Zhao Yunliang, the son of the eight kings, to the palace and cultivated him as a prince for a period of time.

Later, due to the official family, he didn't like this cousin very much, because Zhao Yunliang rarely came to the palace, so he was afraid of being jealous.

But the royal heirs withered, even if he didn't go to the palace, he still couldn't resist the courtiers sticking up one by one.

However, another descendant of the Zhao family is also very loud, that is, the child who has been raised under the knee of Empress Cao since he was a child, before the second prince Zhao Xin was born, he came to the palace when he was only three years old, and was adopted by the official family as an adopted son, and was given the name Zongshi.

originally thought that he would be able to become a prince smoothly, but within a few years, after the prince Zhao Xin was born, the third son of the official family, Zhao Xi, was born.

He was sent back to his biological father, Zhao Yunrang.

The adopted son of the former official family is gradually forgotten.

Who is Cho Yoon-rang?

He is the third son of Zhao Yuanfen, the fourth son of Song Zhenzong, Shang Gongjing Wang, and Zhao Yunliang, who was taken into the palace to raise him, is a cousin.

Their father, one is line four, and the other is line eight.

Now, Zhao Zongshi has just turned ten years old, but because he has also been raised in the palace, many people are staring at him when the official family has no children.

"He's sick, is it possible that the court has raised the matter of establishing a prince again?"

Zhao Jin nodded: "Now this prince is not in good health, and the courtiers have written to let the official family train the heir early." ”

Su Yixin: "......"

Some ministers really dare to say it.

There is still a prince in the official family, and he even mentioned the matter of the heir, isn't this a clear poke on the heart of the official family.

"The officials didn't send those ministers who proposed?"

"How to send it, they just suggested, and they didn't force the official family to choose one as the prince to cultivate now, and the official family has always been benevolent, saying that there is a prince in the palace, and this matter is dismissed."

Yes, this Emperor Renzong is famous for his benevolence in history.

"What do you want me to help with?"

Zhao Jin said: "Come with me to the Eight Great Palaces to see his condition." ”

The Eight Kings are seriously ill, and there are famous imperial doctors guarding them, and the skills of those imperial doctors are much higher than her, Zhao Jin must know this, so he wants her to go, that is, he suspects that the illness of the Eight Kings is strange.

From Gu Qingjue's usual discussions, Su Yixin knew that Zhao Jin and the Eight Kings Party were actually opposites.

Now, the Eight Kings are seriously ill, and they should be happy to see them succeed.

But I didn't expect to care about the Eight Kings like this.

Because of this, Su Yixin's favorability towards Zhao Jin has increased a lot.

"Okay, I'll do my best."

I thought it would be better to let her rest for the night, but I didn't expect that after Su Yixin agreed, Xu Bai, who had left just now, appeared again, and this time directly introduced the two of them behind the screen that disappeared just now.

Behind the screen is a large round wooden bed, with a pink curtain and tassels hanging from the top, indescribably ambiguous.

This should be a white bed.

Sure enough, it's riotous.

Xu Bai pressed his hand in front of the bed, because it was covered by his body, Su Yixin didn't know where Xu Bai was pressing.

After pressing, the quilt on the bed was lifted, revealing a step that could accommodate one person, Zhao Jin lifted his robe, took out a night pearl the size of a pigeon's egg from his chest, and walked down first.

Su Yixin also took out a pink night pearl from the storage bag and followed behind.

Xu Bai didn't follow, and Qin Lian Su Yixin didn't let her follow.

Since they entered and exited from the secret passage, the matter of their going to the Eight Great Princes' Mansion must be kept secret, Xu Bai stayed in the room to cover, and Qin Lian, who entered the Tibetan Incense Pavilion with her, had to stay outside the door, which was reasonable.

Coming out of the secret passage, there is a backyard of a house, and the exit is a rockery.

Su Yixin's eyesight is excellent, and she can see that the rockery pond in this backyard is a backyard of a large family.

But at this time, except for a few black-clad guards guarding the rockery, there was no light at all in this backyard.

Zhao Jin didn't introduce, and Su Yixin didn't ask.

Silence followed Zhao Jin all the way, and after half an hour, he came to the back door of the Eight Great Kings' house.

Zhao Jin knocked lightly on the door, two long and three short, and soon there was a man dressed as a guard, and about forty or so men opened the door.

Before entering the door, Zhao Jin covered his face with a black scarf, and Su Yixin covered it with the qi of the five elements.

Just when Su Yixin thought that this man was not arranged by Zhao Jin in the Eight Great Palaces, the man had already begun to knock on the door.

A servant of about twenty opened the door and led the person into the room without saying a word.

From the outside, the yard is very remote and secluded, there are a lot of bamboos living in the yard, and when I first came in, I saw a lot of backyards, because the bamboos are very high, and they can also see the top of the bamboo in the yard.

However, when I entered, I found that the room was very large, and the arrangement was extremely thoughtful and luxurious, with chairs made of fine wood on both sides, four on the left and four on the left, a total of eight chairs, corresponding to the Eight Kings.

Looking further ahead, there is a huge screen, there are eight fans, each with a different pattern on it, all made of good golden silk nanmu, which can be folded.
