Rong Zhen stared ahead steadily. The stream was calm, just as if his heart had been questioned at the moment, and it was like a pool of stagnant water that could no longer produce any ripples.

Gu Yunru held his hand and said sincerely, "I know, but there is a truth in the saying that serving the emperor is like serving a tiger. The ministers that the emperor trusts now are only the left and right prime ministers, but they have a good relationship with you, so I always remind you not to fight for the credit in everything."

"Why are you so proficient in official affairs?" Rong Zhen reached out and stroked her cheek, and found that he had really picked up a treasure. Gu Yunru not only knew how to guess facial expressions, but was also able to cook delicious meals and seemed to know a little about everything.

"I only know a little bit. In fact, history is a very good mirror. From ancient times to the present, it is impossible for every emperor to dominate the empire for a thousand years. Classes are meant to be broken. Today, everything is calm, but maybe someone is brewing a bigger storm. I don't find it strange that the emperor is like this now."

As he spoke, he sighed with joy.

"A Zhao, if possible, I really want to return to the countryside. We can build a small bamboo house, surround it with a fenced yard, and bring Huan'er, An'er, and Aojun to live with us. They can live next door to us.

By then we can have a bunch of kids, and it will be nice to be carefree, what do you think? "Gu Yunru turned around, but found that the person was gone. It turned out that something happened to the emperor.

"What should we do, Your Majesty? The Emperor foamed at the mouth right after he ate and has a high fever!" The eunuch Xiao Lizi beside the Emperor was jumping up and down like a monkey. Rong Zhen sniffed the Emperor's breath and glared at everyone, "Where is the military doctor? Where is the military doctor?"

Two imperial doctors also returned with the army, but their men only found their bodies after searching for a long time. They even saw wild dogs eating their bodies. It seemed that they had been murdered early in the morning.

"The princess is here!"

Shu'er called Gu Yunru over. When everyone saw the princess, it was as if they saw the dawn of hope. They made way for her. The emperor lay flat on the ground, with blankets spread around him and hot water and other things prepared.

Seeing that there was a lot of noise all around, Gu Yunru asked them to step aside so that she would not be unable to concentrate on diagnosing the emperor's pulse. She put her fingers on his pulse and found that the frequency of his pulse beats was very strange.

It could be food poisoning.

So he asked the eunuch next to him, "What exactly did the emperor eat?" The eunuch racked his brains and pointed to the bones that were vomited on the ground.

"After eating the pheasants and rabbit meat, the emperor felt dizzy and nauseous. He was about to take a walk, but he lay down before he could even stand up." Little Leo recalled, his face turning pale.

Shu'er frowned nervously and said, "But I roasted those things and sent them to the emperor's uncle. There won't be any problem..." Shu'er looked at Gu Yunru. They caught the rabbit together, so how could there be a problem?

Understanding Shu'er's worries, Gu Yunru patted the back of her hand soothingly, "Don't worry, it's my fault. Maybe the ingredients themselves have problems. Who else ate these?" Shu'er looked at Rong Zhen beside her. She frowned and said depressedly, "I don't know if the prince ate them..."

Rong Zhen suddenly realized and remembered that he had thrown the meat next to the emperor in anger, and his brother might have eaten his share as well.

At this time, Ji Heng found a clue not far away, and walked to Rong Zhen and said, "Your Highness, the two imperial doctors were knocked unconscious from behind, which means someone is secretly following our team." Rong Zhen narrowed his eyes fiercely when he heard this, "Give orders to have people pay attention to any movement nearby, and if there is anyone sneaking around, he must be arrested immediately!"

"yes."

Seeing Ji Heng was about to leave, Shu'er immediately trotted forward and said, "You must be careful about your own safety!" Ji Heng raised the corner of his mouth at her, and without saying a few more words, he left her first. Shu'er recalled that he actually smiled at her just now, but he never smiled easily!

Thinking of Ruyan in the carriage, she quickly got on. The foul smell in the carriage almost made her faint. Ruyan hadn't come out to get some fresh air all day, and she must have been suffocated.

"Miss Ruyan, come down and get some fresh air." Shu'er helped her down. She looked weak and seemed to have not eaten for several days. Her face was as haggard as paper. Her body was probably blown away by the wind.

He asked someone to bring a mink coat and put it on her shoulders. Seeing her dejected look, he said, "Miss Ruyan, what's going on? I heard from my aunt that we have sent you to the outskirts of Pingyang City. You could have entered the city, so why are you still..."

Before she finished her words, Ruyan's face changed, and a turbid and sharp light shot out from her clear pupils. Without her saying more, everyone knew what happened next.

Ruyan suddenly thought of something and nervously grabbed Shuer's wrist and said, "Where is Brother Wang? Where is Brother Wang?"

"I don't know where Mr. Wang is. My aunt has already gone to ask him, but the emperor was suddenly poisoned and hasn't woken up yet. If you want to know where Mr. Wang is, you have to wait for the emperor to wake up first."

"Haha, he actually has this day!" Ruyan suddenly laughed crazily. The laughter was sharp and piercing. If others heard it, they would definitely take advantage of it.

Shu'er quickly covered his mouth and nose and said, "Don't laugh anymore. The emperor is dying now. Don't make things worse. Come back to the capital with us. We will find a way to find out the whereabouts of our eldest brother, okay?"

Ruyan nodded and said nothing more. On the other side, Gu Yunru gave him a few injections and barely saved his life. It was not suitable to heal here in the windy and snowy night, and he had to be transferred to a nearby post station as soon as possible.

"Where will we end up if we go further ahead?" he asked the soldier standing beside him.

The soldier answered without hesitation, "Go further and you will reach Gaolan City. Gaolan City has many customs and has never been subject to government discipline. There are many religious believers there. If we go there rashly, I'm afraid..."

Seeing that the soldier was hesitant and did not explain clearly, Gu Yunru did not care so much and asked everyone to set off quickly to send him to the nearby post station, otherwise he would not be able to get the best treatment.
