"Okay, from now on, we'll follow the emperor's wishes. Go and inform the eldest prince, and you don't have to worry about Prince Jing. I will talk to him myself."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Shangguan Ziqi went to where the eldest prince lived again.
Shangguan Ziqi told the story quietly, and the eldest prince was as shocked and unbelievable as the prince.
The eldest prince was thinking about what happened today.
Concubine Wan saved the emperor, and the third brother held the emperor back. Both mother and son had the merit of saving the emperor.
It is impossible for the Emperor to remain indifferent.
So he really couldn't be sure what the future would be like.
Only after hearing Shangguan Ziqi's words did he feel relieved.
How audacious!
"Oh, watch your words and don't let that person notice anything unusual." Shangguan Ziqi said with hints.
"Well. Is the emperor still alive?" The eldest prince did not see the emperor fall off the cliff.
They had discussed it before. He and Uncle Jing would protect the Queen, while the Emperor would lure the enemy, and finally he would take the initiative to jump off the cliff.
The result was unexpected.
I didn't expect Concubine Wan to get involved.
If a woman can do this, it shows how determined she is.
"He's fine, just a little injured. Madam has treated him."
"That's it. I'll go see him tonight."
"The Emperor won't let you go."
The eldest prince thought about it and decided to give up.
If too many people go, it's easy to be exposed.
In the afternoon, the "Emperor" summoned Yu Yuanzheng.
She felt a little confused.
But she also put on a good show, dressing up and taking her maid to meet the "Emperor".
As a result, the eunuch who came to deliver the imperial edict did not take her to where the emperor lived, but to where Concubine Wan lived.
"Greetings to His Majesty, may His Majesty live long and healthy lives. Greetings to Concubine Wan." Yu Yuanzheng bowed politely.
In order not to arouse suspicion, she did her best.
"Zhen Guo Xi, Concubine Wan has a fever.
Your aunt has never asked you to see her for a long time, so she wants you to take a look at her and also check if she has any other hidden illnesses.
She is your aunt, you have to treat her seriously." "Your Majesty" said slowly.
If you are not particularly familiar with the emperor, you really can't tell whether this is true or false.
Yu Yuanzheng had met the emperor many times, but couldn't tell the real one from the fake one.
It can be seen that this person's ability should not be underestimated.
The voice, the figure, the way of speaking, everything is alike.
"Your Majesty, you should know that my aunt once harmed my husband. She no longer considers the Prince Rong's Mansion as her mother's home." Yu Yuanzheng said this deliberately.
She couldn't act too submissive, or else she would become suspicious.
"Yuan Zheng, it was my aunt who was wrong before.
Aunt was also deceived by the old lady before. Now that you have made a mistake, Aunt will love you and Ziqi as her own children in the future.
Can you forgive my aunt?"
Concubine Wan, who was lying on the bed, tried weakly to stand up, but was stopped by the palace maid.
"My lady, please take care of yourself."
Even though Concubine Wan was planning for the Third Prince to become the Crown Prince, or directly become the Emperor, she did not dare to offend Prince Rong's Mansion.
Every emperor of the Wei Dynasty had a close relationship with Prince Rong.
Moreover, the formula of the bomb is still in Prince Rong's Mansion and has not been disclosed yet. The production and research are also under the control of Prince Rong.
No one else can get involved at all.
She absolutely could not afford to offend him, so she asked Yu Yuanzheng to come and see her. She did not want to embarrass her, but wanted to use her to build a relationship with the Rong Palace.
Her son has not yet been named crown prince, so Prince Rong's opinion is very important.
Even if they replaced the emperor now, if Prince Rong raised objections and the "emperor" wanted to force the third prince to be the crown prince, Prince Rong would have a way to ruin it.
Yu Yuanzheng looked at the Emperor and Concubine Wan strangely.
The result is nothing can be seen.
The emperor looked indifferent.
Wanpin looked at her longingly.
Yu Yuanzheng said nothing, walked forward and sat on the small stool in front of the bed.
He grabbed Wanpin's hand and began to take her pulse.
After half a quarter of an hour, he withdrew his hand.
It's not a big problem, just a slight fever.
A normal reaction to an injury.
Just take a dose of antipyretic medicine.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Wan is fine.
I feel a little weak, but it is not caused by this injury, but rather lack of blood.
Go to the garden more often, eat more food, don’t eat too much fine food, and take less tonics, as the body is weak and cannot be nourished. In one or two years, it will be gone.”
Yu Yuanzheng spoke in a serious tone, but he didn't tell a single lie.
Wanpin was stunned when she heard this. The imperial physician asked for her pulse every month, but no other imperial physician had ever told her this.
Yu Yuanzheng's bold and direct words made it difficult for her to accept.
"What's the meaning?"
“In order to maintain her figure, the queen deliberately dieted and ate less, which led to her physical weakness.
If this continues, it will harm your lifespan.
If you believe me, do what I say. If you don’t believe me, just pretend I never said anything.”
Yu Yuanzheng explained expressionlessly.
Wanpin was frightened by these words.
Who doesn’t want to live longer?
If the prince inherits the throne in the future, she will be the most honorable empress dowager in the Great Wei, and she naturally wants to live as long as possible.
"Oh, please prescribe a prescription to reduce her fever. In the future, make sure she walks more and eats more." The "Emperor" ordered in a calm voice.
Yu Yuanzheng wrote the prescription and left, without calling her aunt the whole time.
As soon as she left, Concubine Wan's face fell.
"Look, look. I have lowered my attitude, but she doesn't know what's wrong. She doesn't even call me aunt."
"Your Majesty is right, but don't be too hasty. We have already succeeded in the first step. We still have time to take our time. You can take a rest. We will go to Beijing the day after tomorrow."
“That’s what sir said.
However, time is running out. You cannot pretend to be the emperor for long. Sooner or later you will be exposed.
There is more than one woman in the palace.
You can't stay away from their palace for long.
It would be terrible if someone with no eyes recognized me.
It would be best if you decide on the position of Crown Prince as soon as possible, and then find a reason to give up the throne."
"Um."
That night.
The prince took An Yi with him and quietly left the palace in the dead of night and headed towards the top of Yunfeng Mountain.
Jump off the cliff.
When the prince saw that the emperor was really in the cave, he was sitting in front of a bonfire in a trance.
This is waiting for him.
"Greetings to the prince, Master." As soon as the prince entered the cave, Zhuiyun and Zhuyue discovered him.
"Yes. Your Majesty, I greet you." The prince bowed. Seeing that the emperor was safe and sound, the prince finally felt relieved.
"Hongyi is here, please sit down." The emperor casually pointed to the stone bench opposite.
"I am guilty. I was negligent." The prince admitted his mistake.
"No, I am innocent, what crime have you committed?" The emperor thought very openly.
Through this fishing trip, all the spies that Canglan left in Wei were eliminated. It was worth it even if there was some danger.
It’s just a pity for the Third Emperor.
If he had stopped himself earlier, he could have saved his son.
But for the sake of the Great Wei and the imperial power, he had to sacrifice this ignorant son.
He can only blame himself for making a mistake.
He gave him a chance.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for not punishing me."
"Okay, let's discuss what to do next. I estimate that as soon as they arrive in Beijing, they will issue an edict to enthrone a prince, and then find a reason to pass on the throne and realize the succession of imperial power." The emperor expressed his guess.
"I think so too." The prince had thought about their next plan during the day.
"I am only worried about the eldest prince. If they move too quickly, the eldest prince may be in danger."
"Your Majesty, rest assured. I will tell the eldest prince when I go back to Beijing that he should keep a low profile and seldom leave the palace. If necessary, he can come to Prince Rong's mansion to find me."
"Well. Then you can go back to the capital with the fake one, and we'll see what happens later."
The prince was stunned when he heard this: "Your Majesty, don't you plan to go to the capital together?"
