[This old man, Prince Li, really acts like a coward and does the thing he hates the most. ]
Prince Li wanted to cry but had no tears. Why didn't anyone tell him earlier that Shen Zhiyi had this function?
How come she knows everything?
If Shen Zhiyi knew what he did, he would definitely not dare to do it.
[This old guy probably wants to use this plague to arouse the people's dissatisfaction with the court. Who gave him this bad idea? I don't know if ordinary people like us have other advantages, but the biggest advantage is that we can endure.]
Speaking of this, Shen Zhiyi sighed to the sky, with tears in his eyes.
[When you are in kindergarten, you have to endure until you are in elementary school. When you are in elementary school, you have to endure until you are in junior high school. When you are in junior high school, you have to endure until you are in high school. When you are in high school, you have to endure until you are in college. When you are in college, you have to endure until you start working. Once you start working, that’s it. You may not be able to endure smoothly until you are old. ]
【Uh, there may not even be a class to attend.】
"Harmful."
Shen Zhiyi wiped the tears from her eyes.
She didn't notice at all that the ministers around her were looking at her with such distressed eyes.
Everyone: I didn’t expect that Shen Lang’s life was so hard in the past. If he hadn’t come to Daye, he wouldn’t even have a job!
[So, how could a mere plague cause the common people to rebel and overthrow the rule of the Zhou family? It's impossible.]
[Not to mention the past, let’s talk about the recent past. The corruption of the previous dynasty lasted for a full eighty years. The people were so hungry that they ate human flesh. That’s when many people stood up and resisted.]
[There is no more patient and hardworking people than those on this land. ]
Prince Li suddenly realized.
The mind that had been blinded by the throne finally came to its senses after being talked into by Shen Zhiyi.
He let go of the old emperor's thigh and pounced on the strategist who had given him advice.
"It's all your fault. It's all your fault. You've harmed me."
The counselor sneered, the truth had already been revealed and he was no longer afraid.
"If Prince Li had not been greedy, why would he have listened to what I said? To put it bluntly, Prince Li had a guilty conscience, and I just brought out the guilty conscience."
"you!"
Prince Li was furious.
[That being said, why did this strategist target Prince Li? Prince Li is the old emperor's brother, and the next heir to the throne is also the old emperor's son.]
[The crown prince is the one who is certain to succeed. If the crown prince dies, then the other sons of the old emperor will be the next in line. The old emperor doesn't have only the crown prince as a son, so why did this strategist target Prince Li? ]
Prince Li turned to look at his adviser.
He was very sure that it was the first time he met the other person and he didn't know how he had offended the other person.
He turned around and tried to hug the old emperor's thigh again.
This time, the old emperor dodged it easily.
【So that's how it is. 】
The scene suddenly became quiet, and many people were waiting for Shen Zhiyi's next words.
What the matter is.
[Prince Li has become accustomed to a life of luxury and wealth, and probably has forgotten what he did when he was young.]
Prince Li was completely confused.
Looking at the way everyone was looking at him, looking at the strategist's eyes that seemed to wish he was dead.
He doesn't understand.
The only bad thing he did in his life was to listen to slander and give him this medicine.
Otherwise, he has done good deeds all his life and is a very honest person.
Prince Li looked at the old emperor with hope.
Trying hard to show your simplicity and honesty.
The old emperor ignored the other party. He was waiting to hear what Shen Zhiyi had to say next.
[This matter feels a bit, hiss, it’s another difficult thing to comment on. ]
Shen Zhiyi scratched his head.
[When Prince Li was young, he met a girl who turned out to be the counselor's sister.]
Prince Li subconsciously said, "I have no impression."
Strategist: ???
He couldn’t hear Shen Zhiyi’s inner voice, and felt that King Li’s words were nonsensical.
[When he was young, Prince Li and that girl secretly got engaged, and even held a ceremony to worship heaven and earth. Damn it, they were playing with the girl's feelings.]
[It was a time of war, and many people held a ceremony to worship heaven and earth as if they were getting married, so they could start living together.]
[The girl felt that she had married the young Prince Li, and Prince Li just felt that he was just playing house with the girl?! ]
Everyone: What's wrong with commenting on this? Prince Li is a scumbag!
[King Li, who thought it was just a game, left because his philandering father finally remembered his stupid beautiful mother and took her back.]
[However, the girl took it seriously. After Prince Li left without saying goodbye, she kept waiting for him. When she reached the age to get married, she refused to get married.]
[Later, she was forced to get married by her father, but the girl was stubborn and actually committed suicide by jumping into a well.]
Everyone: It is indeed as Shen Zhiyi said, this matter is difficult to comment on.
The mechanical sound of the system rang in everyone's ears.
[Isn't this reason for suicide a bit far-fetched? Host, is there any hidden secret, such as King Li sending someone to kill him? ]
Prince Li shuddered.
Defamation, this is defamation!
What about the Dali Temple Minister? He has a complaint to file!
[It seems that the girl really committed suicide, but his brother blamed it all on Prince Li. If Prince Li had not deceived his sister's feelings, his sister would not have committed suicide. ]
[Because of this reason, this counselor came to seek revenge on King Li on purpose.]
[If I'm not mistaken, this strategist will tell the old emperor the murderer behind this incident before he even arrives. However, this method of revenge is a bit too extreme.]
For the first time, the old emperor didn't feel like eating melons.
He was in a complicated mood and got angry when he saw Prince Li's look.
"Remember to hand over the antidote recipe. As for you, stay in the cell first."
All those who were involved in the plague were sent to prison.
The prescription for the antidote was also obtained, and the people from the Imperial Hospital hurried to prepare it.
After confirming that there was no problem, it was immediately delivered to the infected nobleman.
As soon as the prince finished drinking the medicine and lay down, he saw the old emperor with his face covered with a scarf and his entourage coming over.
"Dad? Why are you here? Get out now. It would be bad if you get infected."
[Why not? Sit on the dragon throne in advance. ]
"Cough cough cough cough."
The prince was frightened by Shen Zhiyi’s shocking words.
"Dad, please don't think too much. Your son is not interested in your throne."
The old emperor blew his beard in anger.
"You have to be interested in this throne even if you are not interested in it."
"Where is it? My father has to live for ten thousand years."
The old emperor smiled and sat casually on the edge of the bed.
"That would make you a monster, son. As a human being, you need to understand life and death clearly. Don't be too obsessed with immortality. Look at the emperors in history who pursued immortality. In the end, they didn't live as long as your father."
[The old emperor is worried that the prince is trying to find some elixir of immortality. ]
