Seeking wealth and danger, Shu Ange knew that selling illicit salt was playing with fire, but he still did it without hesitation.

Her fortune has been accumulating at an exaggerated rate, and her pseudonym and identity as she walked outside the world have slowly spread among the Salt Gang.

Every time Shu Ange contacted the people in the Salt Gang, he would be extra cautious and use the unique means of communication in the Salt Gang, so as not to show his feet.

After praying for blessings in the Temple of Mercy and Grace for three days, His Royal Highness returned to the palace with the blessed longevity ritual of enlightenment.

However, the body of the Holy Lord and the Empress is still weakening day by day, and at the beginning of June, His Majesty was no longer able to go to court at all.

For more than a month, His Royal Highness Fifth has been busy serving, and he has to supervise the government with the assistance of the minister, and he has had a really hard time, and there is almost no time to leave the palace.

Shu Ange was obedient, she didn't rush to settle accounts with Xue Pinggui, and specially erased the news that she is now living in the Jin Palace.

Although he didn't go to the two of them again, Shu Ange also heard the rumors of a conflict between Xue Pinggui and Princess Daizhan.

There is no impermeable wall in the world, Xue Pinggui thinks that everything is under control, he deliberately conceals his identity if he wants to travel at night in brocade, he wants to return to his hometown, so he beats gongs and drums to announce to the world, which can only show that he thinks too much.

Even though Princess Daizhan couldn't let go of Xue Pinggui for a while, that thorn was still planted in the hearts of the two of them.

Seeing that the situation inside and outside the court was becoming more and more tense, His Royal Highness was busy every day without touching the ground, and his body bones were weak.

Shu Ange ignored the opposition of His Royal Highness Fifth and forcibly asked to enter the palace to assist him in handling all affairs.

After a stalemate between the two for a few days, His Royal Highness finally agreed that Shu Ange would enter the palace and temporarily serve as the head of the East Palace, in charge of talismans, scriptures, propaganda, initiation, teaching, gifts, paper and pencils, etc.

Although he has the title of Zhangshu, the first thing Shu Ange did when he entered the palace was to make medicinal food to regulate his body for the Five Highnesses.

Now that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is needed inside and outside, he is not iron-beaten, how can he withstand this ordeal.

Whenever he saw the thin cheeks and withered look of the Fifth Highness, Shu Ange couldn't help but be pantothenic acid in his heart.

is a good young man, what the hell has he been tossed by these messy things.

If he really worked hard for the affairs of his family and country, Shu Ange also recognized it for His Royal Highness.

But most of the time, he was obviously boiling the rules and accompanying the officials of the six ministries.

A group of old ministers, when the saint was critically ill, did not think of supporting the young master, but bullied His Royal Highness the prince at a young age, and delayed everything if he could.

There are also officials who sincerely support His Royal Highness the Prince, but their arms can't twist their thighs, and they still can't change the situation that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is slack.

Shu Ange specially asked someone to bring a letter to the Prime Minister's Mansion, asking Prime Minister Wang to help His Royal Highness the Crown Prince when the storm was shaking.

Although Prime Minister Wang Cheng did not reply to Shu Ange's letter as usual, in the court, he finally changed his previous ambiguous attitude and supported the Fifth Highness with a clear banner.

The days in the palace are frightening every step, and there are countless open guns and hidden arrows.

If it weren't for Shu Ange's familiarity with the ghosts and tricks in the palace, and his strong martial arts and adaptability, I am afraid that he would have become a dead soul in less than three days after entering the palace.

The queen mother has been seriously ill, Shu Ange accompanied the Fifth Highness to visit the Qingning Palace, but the queen mother was not in good spirits, and only talked to the Fifth Highness for a while, and did not pass on Shu Ange.

On the fifth day of entering the palace, Shu Ange was in the study of the East Palace, and when he was sorting out the folds for His Royal Highness, the door was suddenly pushed open.

Shu Ange raised his head, and His Royal Highness was wearing court clothes with red eyes, staggered to her in two steps, grabbed her hand and hurriedly ran towards the door.

"Siniang, the queen mother wants to see you, hurry, follow me."

His Royal Highness's voice was choked, his face was sad, and he didn't even have the heart to wait, dragging Shu Ange all the way towards Qingning Palace, not considering this move at all.

The palace maids, together with the patrolling Ouchi guards, watched in amazement as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince led a person who looked like a female official and ran wildly.

The two ran all the way to Qingning Palace, Shu Ange was in good condition, His Royal Highness Fifth Highness's face was flushed, there were tears in his eyes, and he unconsciously grabbed Shu Ange's hand.

In the Qingning Palace, the palace maids looked panicked, and when they saw the Fifth Highness, they finally felt a little stable in their hearts.

His Royal Highness Fifth held Shu Ange's hand all the way, passed through the heavy curtains, and took her to the queen's mother's bedchamber.

The air was filled with the smell of bitter medicine that could not be dissolved, and seeing the Fifth Highness coming in a hurry, several young imperial doctors knelt on the ground with a thud.

Shu Ange's heart sank fiercely, and he instantly understood why the queen mother suddenly summoned her over.

The queen mother leaned weakly on the pillow, and the whole person was thin and out of shape, only a pair of eyes were bright and scary, and the exposed arms were as thin as firewood.

The last time Shu Ange accompanied the Fifth Highness to Qingning Palace, he had been separated by a thick curtain and did not see the true face of the queen.

When I saw it today, she felt infinitely sour in her heart, and the difficult thing that was made for the queen's birthday last year was also infinitely diluted by her.

"Ahem, ahem, you all go down first."

After coughing for a while, the queen's cheeks seemed to be coated with rouge, red and translucent, but with a sense of ominousness.

Shu Ange can see it without checking the pulse, the queen is back to light, which also means that the queen is about to die.

She glanced at His Highness Five, his fingers were shaking, and his eyes were a little dazed.

The female eunuchs of the palace rushed out, and even the imperial doctor knelt out.

The queen beckoned to the Fifth Highness, and glanced at Shu Ange again: "Ahem, both of you come here." ”

A simple sentence, after she finished speaking, she took a hard breath.

The Fifth Highness walked to the side of the bed with red eyes, knelt on one knee, and held the hand of the queen mother: "Queen Mother, you get well quickly, Erchen must be a good prince to benefit all the people and make your face shine." ”

The queen mother glanced at the Fifth Highness lovingly, stretched out her hand tremblingly, and touched his cheek: "Son, don't worry about this country." Ahem, as long as you're safe and happy. ”

When people are about to die, their words are also good, and when they come to the end of their lives, the past scenes flash in the queen's mind.

She thought of the scene when she married His Majesty, and also thought of the crumpled appearance of His Royal Highness when he was born.

All kinds of scenes are intertwined, and the queen mother suddenly let go, how can this Tang Dynasty be able to defeat her son's heart.

"Wang Siniang, stretch out your hand."

The queen's voice became weaker, Shu Ange didn't dare to be negligent, and hurriedly stretched out her hand.

The Fifth Highness held back tears and looked sadly at the queen mother lying on the bed.

The queen put Shu Ange's hand on the hand of His Royal Highness Five, and gasped: "Take care of Yan'er, must, take care of ......."
