Yanzhou City in the cold winter is as cold as a piece of iron. At the gate of the city, there was not a single person who entered or left for a long time.

As soon as the soldiers defending the city saw Du Zhe, they hid back, and there was also a clever one, who ran inside to deliver the letter as soon as he saw it.

Du Zhe, who had always been in a stable mood, suddenly became angry, and chased after him, and the moment the whip was swung, he had already swept the person to the ground.

The other guards of the city gate did not dare to stop them, and watched as Du Zhe whipped people and rolled on the ground begging for mercy.

Shen Qingyang looked at it coldly, and then continued to move forward without saying a word.

Some people who watched the excitement did not dare to come closer, but only watched from afar.

This vicious beating in the palace is really nothing new, and they are curious that this guy actually came back alive.

Wasn't there a rumor two days ago that he had escaped from the gates?

The Yanwang Mansion is located in the center of Yanzhou City, and the battle flag of the Great Jin Dynasty is fluttering at the door of the huge mansion, and the guards are all soldiers in full armor.

As soon as Mei Xue and his party arrived, a leader greeted them, he first looked at Shen Qingyang and Mei Xue and the others in surprise, and when he saw that he didn't know each other, he hurriedly went up to greet Du Zhe and said:

"Second son, you ......"

Before he finished speaking, this person was slapped to the ground by Du Zhe.

Mei Xue sighed in her heart, and she could already roughly imagine what Du Zhe's past days were like.

The movement outside the door alarmed the people inside, and an elderly person who looked like a steward ran out, he recognized Shen Qingyang, and hurriedly saluted everyone to welcome them inside.

What came out of the main courtyard was a tall and sturdy young man, about twenty-four or five years old, and listening to the steward call him "Shizi", Mei Xue knew that this was Du Xin, the only male in the big house of Yanwangfu.

The prince of Yan Wang had died on the battlefield a few years ago, and the old prince later asked for the position of the eldest grandson.

Du Xin's eyebrows and eyes are square, and there are two very light scars on his forehead and chin, which are completely different from Du Zhe's delicateness.

For those who have been on the battlefield for many years, this scar is nothing at all.

As soon as Du Xin saw Du Zhe, he glared at him, but he didn't say anything, but gave Shen Qingyang a salute and said:

"Lord Shen, please, grandpa often talks about you, I must be very happy to see you today."

Shen Qingyang nodded, turned his face and pointed at Mei Xue and said to Du Xin:

"This is Imperial Physician Mei, personally assigned by His Majesty to diagnose the old prince."

Du Xin stepped forward to give Mei Xue a salute again, just like when Du Zhe first saw Mei Xue, he also looked a little surprised.

probably didn't expect Mei Xue to be such a young girl.

Several people entered the main room together, and they couldn't continue to greet each other, the county lord of Changle and Jiu'er stayed in the main hall, and Mei Xue and Shen Qingyang were accompanied by the Du brothers into the bedroom of the old prince Yan.

It was cold in winter, and the closed room was filled with a strong smell of medicine.

The old prince, who had a white beard and hair, was half-lying on the bed, although he was haggard, but there was still light in his eyes.

Shen Qingyang walked quickly to the side of the bed and knelt down to give the old prince a big salute, the old prince smiled weakly, but still struggled to stretch out a hand to support Shen Qingyang, and looked at him with a smile and said:

"Qingyang, I never thought that I would be able to see you again before I died, God really treats me well."

Shen Qingyang, who had always been indifferent, also had red circles in his eyes at this time, he introduced Mei Xue to the old prince, and said:

"Your Majesty is worried about your health, and the soldiers of the northern border cannot do without you. Miss Mei has excellent medical skills and will definitely be able to cure your illness. ”

The old prince smiled bitterly, shook his head, and said:

"Qingyang, Your Majesty's kindness, I understand it, but my body knows it myself, I'm already at this age, I can see everything, I don't need to toss anymore."

Du Zhe began to cry, knelt beside the bed and grabbed the old prince's hand and begged:

"Grandpa, Miss Mei has cured the stubborn illness of the prince of Shu for many years, and also cured the eye disease of the queen mother, you can let her diagnose your pulse, grandson beg."

Du Xin also knelt down beside the bed and pleaded.

Mei Xue had been standing beside her, but her attention was not on the old prince, but she looked at Du Xin several times.

The old prince was crying and begging by his two grandchildren, and finally had to nod his head, and said to Mei Xue with a wry smile:

"Then trouble girl, please take a seat."

Du Zhe hurriedly got up, limped over a brocade stool for Mei Xue to put next to the bed.

Mei Xue sat down to check the pulse of the old prince, and after the end, she looked at his tongue and eyes, and then said something very scenely, "The prince is not seriously ill, but he is old and weak, so he can recuperate." ”

Du Zhe looked very disappointed, but Shen Qingyang only glanced at Mei Xue and didn't ask much.

The Du brothers sent Mei Xue out to rest, and Shen Qingyang stayed behind to talk to the old prince.

Du Xin sent Mei Xue out, and whispered to Du Zhe as he walked:

"Grandpa is so worried about you that you haven't slept for two days, if you dare to be willful again, I will have someone break your legs."

Du Zheli ignored Du Xin, sneered and turned his face and left.

arrived in the guest house, as soon as Du Xin left, Du Zhe hurriedly asked Mei Xue:

"Miss Mei, can my grandfather's illness be cured? What you just said is the same as what the doctors said before, I ...... I ......"

Du Zhe was so anxious that he was about to cry, but Mei Xue was unmoved, still shook her head and said:

"The second son's leg injury has not healed, so it's better to go and rest early."

Du Zhe only felt that the Mei Xue in front of him suddenly became very unfamiliar, and it no longer looked like it was in the post station.

He was disappointed, endured the tears in his eyes and turned away.

Jiu'er and the county lord of Changle both looked at Mei Xue, but Mei Xue still didn't speak until Shen Qingyang came back from the main courtyard at noon.

Mei Xue asked Liu Qi and Jiu'er to guard outside, and she said to Shen Qingyang bluntly:

"The old prince is not sick, he was poisoned."

Shen Qingyang was not surprised, looked at Mei Xue and asked:

"Anything else?"

The county lord of Changle also looked at Mei Xue together.

Mei Xue can see that it is not strange that Old Prince Yan was poisoned, but is there anything abnormal?

Mei Xue smiled slightly and said:

"And Du Xin, I suspect he's a fake."

The county lord of Changle was so shocked that he stood up suddenly, and the teacup in his hand also fell to the ground.

How is this possible? The son of the palace, the heir of the future Yan Palace, how can it be fake?

If it's fake, there are so many people in Yanwangfu, can't anyone see it? Will the old prince not recognize his eldest grandson? The lady of the big house is still alive, can't she recognize her own son?

Shen Qingyang was obviously surprised, and paused for a moment before saying in a deep voice:

"When I left the northern border, Du Xin was already in his early tens, and his current appearance has changed compared to the original, but he can still see that he is the same person."

Mei Xue still shook her head and said with a firm expression:

"In this world, it is not uncommon for two people to look very similar. Moreover, I can be sure that the current Du Xin is fake, and there is evidence. ”

Mei Xue smiled lightly and continued:

"He and the real Du Xinchang should look very similar, but I can be sure that the scars on his forehead and chin were not left on the battlefield, but to trim the frontal bone and mandible."

Shen Qingyang's fists gradually clenched, and after closing his eyes, he said:

"If this is the case, there is a good chance that the poisoning of the prince has something to do with him.

I will send him out of the palace first, and then you will guard the prince tightly and detoxify the prince as soon as possible. ”

Mei Xue nodded, and when Shen Qingyang strode away, Mei Xue said to the county lord of Changle:

"County Lord, you must be careful not to let anyone see the abnormality, otherwise, we may not be able to leave the Yanwang Mansion alive."

The county lord of Changle was so nervous that his hands trembled, but he still nodded in response.
