Chapter 528 Stealing the House
Xiao Yanli, who was awakened by his voice, said: "..."
He felt a pain and sweetness in his mouth. He put the chess pieces away as if nothing had happened, picked up the cold tea on the table, and rinsed his mouth.
"It's okay, I just lost my mind for a moment, let's go."
He went to change his clothes, and Uncle Zhang waited outside the house.
He stared at the flowers in full bloom, and he really couldn't understand why Xiao Yanli was worried when everything was clearly going according to their plan?
He was already so suspicious before he became emperor. If he really became emperor, what would happen to him?
Things that he had never thought about were clearly placed in front of him at this moment, and Uncle Zhang's eyes were deep.
...
In the bedroom, the emperor was lying weakly on the dragon bed, surrounded by dozens of imperial doctors and important officials.
Everyone had worry written on their faces.
The imperial doctor was sweating profusely, and he looked at the emperor from time to time.
This pulse is healthier than his own, it doesn't look like he is sick!
The imperial doctors took turns to feel the emperor's pulse, and after feeling the pulse, they all had the same expression without exception, and everyone's heart was hanging in the air.
Someone couldn't help but ask: "Imperial Doctor Zhang, what's wrong with the emperor?"
Imperial Doctor Zhang moved his lips, looked at the emperor, and hesitated to speak.
There was indeed no problem with the pulse, but it was also a fact that the emperor fainted in public, so should he tell the truth?
What if the emperor did it on purpose, if he said it, wouldn't it ruin the emperor's business?
While he was still struggling with himself, everyone could see from his actions just now that the emperor was in trouble!
Everyone was panicked for a while.
Xiao Yanli also arrived at this time.
He looked at the sad expressions on the faces of the people, and the doubts in his heart became heavier. He wanted to observe first, but Fuping saw him with his sharp eyes and immediately shouted: "Your Majesty, the Sixth Prince is here, please get up and take a look!" He
shouted as if he wanted to see him for the last time.
Xiao Yanli's heart couldn't help but tighten.
He knelt in front of the dragon bed: "Father?"
The emperor's face was pale, and he looked at him when he heard the voice: "I'm fine, let them all go, I'll be fine after a few days of rest!"
His voice and face did not look like he was fine.
"Doctor, tell them."
Since the emperor had said so, Doctor Zhang naturally had to tell the truth: "Your Majesty's pulse is healthy. He may have worked too hard today. You don't have to worry."
But at this time, this statement was almost unreliable.
Everyone was worried.
The doctors: "..."
They had it so hard!
Xiao Yanli was not too surprised. The medicine really had no effect on the pulse, so it was useless for people who took Chinese medicine to seek medical treatment. On the contrary, they would think that they were healthy and then slowly be eaten away by the medicine.
All the signs were right. Even if his intuition was still telling him that something was wrong, Xiao Yanli could only attribute it to his own suspicion.
The emperor seemed to be fed up with so many people gathered around him, and waved his hand to let Fuping ask everyone to leave.
After everyone left, the emperor's weak eyes suddenly brightened.
"Fortunately, Your Majesty asked a few more questions, otherwise the Sixth Prince would have been suspicious for so many days." Fuping brought water to clean him up.
The emperor closed his eyes: "There are too many coincidences. He must have been suspicious a long time ago. Let him see it with his own eyes today. Even if he is suspicious, he will not miss this opportunity."
Fuping nodded softly.
...
Uncle Zhang could not go into the palace with Xiao Yanli, so he waited outside the palace. When he saw Xiao Yanli coming out, he hurried to greet him.
After he got on the carriage and walked two streets, Uncle Zhang spoke: "Your Highness saw it with your own eyes? The emperor..."
"Yes, he saw it. He was indeed drugged. Instruct Su Bai to ambush the soldiers he bought. There is no need for him to show up. Let... Ji Tong lead them."
"Separate our people from his people."
"Yes!"
The wheels slowly rolled over the ground, and Xiao Yanli let out a long breath.
He remembered that Chao En had said before his death that the person sitting in that position was himself.
Aren't the scenes now pushing towards that result?
All his suspicions were nothing but groundless worries.
The breath he exhaled seemed to take away all the previous troubles, and Xiao Yanli felt a lot more relaxed.
After returning to the Prince's Mansion, Uncle Zhang went straight to Ji Tong's room and gave him instructions.
Ji Tong chuckled and nodded: "Please tell His Highness, I will do my best."
After Uncle Zhang left, Ji Tong's face suddenly sank.
If Xiao Yanli is supported to be the emperor, none of the Xu family will be left. Without them, there will be only a handful of people in Shengjing who can lead troops.
Moreover, with the sudden change of dynasties and turbulent times, they will surely be able to take down Tianqi in one fell swoop by taking advantage of this opportunity!
He sat at the desk and picked up paper and pen, but after thinking about it, he put it aside.
The person sent by Xiao Yanli to watch him, his so-called younger brother, Ji He, was next door.
Ji Tong knew that Ji He would secretly search him every day while he was practicing martial arts.
He couldn't leave any handle.
As expected, as soon as he put down his pen, Ji He knocked on the door: "Brother?"
Ji Tong's eyes flashed with sarcasm, but his tone was very gentle: "Come in."
Perhaps because they were familiar with each other, Ji He was not as reserved as before, and ran in to look at him: "I just saw someone come in, who is it, what do you want to see brother for?"
He lay on the table, but his eyes did not look around, only staring at Ji Tong.
Ji Tong also understood his behavior of not looking around.
After all, he had searched the room from beginning to end, and he was afraid that he did not know as well as he did.
Thinking of this, Ji Tong sneered in his heart, but did not show it on his face: "It was someone beside His Highness who told me something."
He spoke vaguely. When he heard that it was His Highness who told him, Ji He said, "Oh." and did not ask any more questions.
"Let's not talk about that. How is your sword practice going?"
"Not bad. Brother, do you want to see it?"
"Yes."
On the other side, Uncle Zhang, who had finished telling the two people, was reporting to Xiao Yanli.
"Ji Tong readily agreed and asked me to tell His Highness that he would do his best. Su Bai was not dissatisfied with His Highness not letting him show up. There was only one thing, he wanted to see the emperor later."
Xiao Yanli nodded.
...
The next day, the emperor still failed to attend the court. According to the news from the palace, the emperor had coughed up blood.
However, even at this point, the emperor still insisted that he was fine and would not change the crown prince. The ministers were a little panicked.
One minister could not help but suggest that at this point, it would be better to release the crown prince first.
Some people agreed, and of course some people opposed.
The crown prince has been deposed, which means that the emperor no longer favors him. Now among the princes, only the sixth prince can take on this important task!
There was no result from the quarrels, after all, everything happened too suddenly.
However, what was even more sudden was that while they were attending the morning court, the sixth prince led his troops and surrounded their mansion!
Everyone: "!!!"
