Chapter 157 The Prince is Poisoned



Time passed quickly, and finally it was Jiang Yuanxi's birthday.

"Madam, the ladies of various families have sent us so many gifts that our warehouse is almost full." Chunzhi held the account book in one hand to register, while asking the servants to bring in all the things.

"Slow down, these are pearls and agates given by the Korean Duke, plus 18 pieces of jade. Be careful."

"And over there, the plaque bestowed by the emperor will be hung up tomorrow. No, it will be hung up later."

Written by the Emperor himself, this is the honor of the Jiang family.

Chuntao was also very busy.

Chen Xinwan changed Jiang Yuanxi's clothes in the room.

"This one won't do. It's too old-fashioned. Children should wear brightly colored clothes."

Chen Xinwan didn't feel tired at all after helping her daughter check thirty boxes of clothes.

Jiang Yuancheng's sleepy eyelids were drooping.

"Third brother, when do you think we can choose between mother and Yuan Xi?"

Five hours, a full five hours!

When can he take Yuan Xi out to play?

Jiang Yuanyuan shook his head tiredly.

After doing business for a year, he discovered a very strange phenomenon.

The ladies and young ladies who used to be so weak and frail at home, once they go shopping, they seem to have endless energy.

Even standing for ten hours is no problem, she doesn't look weak at all.

"By the way, where's my brother?"

Jiang Yuanyuan: "The prince asked my brother to go over, and he will probably be back soon."

East Palace.

The prince frowned.

"Teacher, the power behind Zuichunlou is definitely not simple."

Jiang Yuansheng cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, I am still your teacher."

After the last time, the court officials opposed him becoming the prince's teacher, and they have not given in yet.

The prince had long been impressed by Jiang Yuansheng's knowledge.

Only those who are humble, polite and knowledgeable can be his teacher.

He went to the emperor privately, and the emperor agreed. However, he was stopped by a group of sour Confucian scholars in the court, and the matter remained undecided for a long time.

Jun Yin patted Jiang Yuansheng on the shoulder and said, "You don't have to do this. Even if they don't recognize me, I will."

Jiang Yuansheng was flattered.

"Your Highness is convinced that I will do my best."

Back to the topic.

"I sent people to search Zuichunlou thoroughly and found that this was the base for that group to gather information."

Jiang Yuansheng seemed to be thinking about something. As far as he knew, there were quite a few officials in the court who went in and out of Zuichunlou.

"In the name of the brothel, collect information from the court."

Prince: "Now is the time when the Xiongnu and Yufeng are fighting, and Zuichunlou suddenly appears."

"Your Highness suspects that Zuichunlou provided information to the Xiongnu?"

The prince nodded.

After much thought, this is the only possibility.

Jiang Yuansheng had some doubts. As far as he knew, the emperor's illegitimate son was also in Shengjing.

Not long after he arrived in Shengjing, the Shiwa Village incident occurred, and then the prime minister had a dispute with the emperor, and then there was the Zuichunlou incident.

All of these seem to be closely related to the emperor's illegitimate son.

"Your Highness, I suspect that Shiwa Village is related to Zuichunlou."

Shiwa Village is responsible for buying children and training them to be chess pieces, and Zuichunlou is one of their destinations.

"Prince, do you remember that some people on the list we got were bought back from Zuichunlou?"

The prince suddenly realized.

"So, these people have long arms and have planted people in almost every official in the court."

"What if the palace..." The prince didn't dare to think about it.

If someone has been planted in the palace, then my father would be in danger.

"Enter the palace! Enter the palace quickly!"

As soon as the prince finished speaking, he felt dizzy and fell to the ground.

"Call the doctor!"

"His Highness has fainted!"

Jun Yin grabbed Jiang Yuansheng's sleeve and said, "Teacher, please, please Yuan Xi."

After saying this, he completely fainted.

Jiang Yuansheng hurried back home and pulled Jiang Yuanxi, who was trying on clothes, over.

When he arrived, the emperor and the empress were already waiting before the prince.

The imperial physician is treating the prince.

"Your Majesty, it seems as if your Highness has been poisoned."

"Poisoned!" The queen's legs went weak and she almost fell.

"Maybe it can be cured?"

Doctor Zhang knelt down and said, "Forgive me, I can't do anything!"

The poison came in a very strange way. It had clearly entered his lungs, but his complexion looked no different from that of an ordinary person.

Even the pulse was not much different. If he wasn't so skilled, he probably wouldn't be able to see the key.

The emperor was furious, "If you can't cure the prince, you will all be buried with him!"

The imperial physician trembled in fear, "Your Majesty, spare my life!"

Doctor Li stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I have a solution."

Emperor: "What's the solution? Tell me now!"

Doctor Li: "Using the blood of boys and girls, supplemented with good medicine, this method is risky, but it can save the prince's life."

The emperor frowned.

This method sounds like a way to harm people.

Jiang Yuanxi stood behind the crowd, reaching up to his neck.

【What's wrong with Emperor Daddy? 】

The emperor suddenly heard a voice.

Jiang Yuansheng led Jiang Yuanxi forward.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty."

Jiang Yuansheng said bluntly, "When the prince fainted, he asked me to bring my sister here."

The emperor was puzzled as to why Yin'er went to find Yuan Xi. Could it be that Yuan Xi had a solution?

After all, the emperor is the ruler of a country, and he can quickly adjust his mood at any time.

The emperor looked at Jiang Yuanxi and said, "Yuanxi, can you help the emperor father to see how the prince is doing?"

Jiang Yuanxi took a step forward and glanced at the prince on the bed.

[Why is the lifeline so weak? ] It flickers, as if it will go out in the next moment.

After hearing this, the emperor held on to Cao Cheng's hand and managed to stand up straight.
