Chapter 28 Undercurrent
"Your Majesty's face is pale, I don't know what happened, is it sick?"

Seeing Zhao Yuan's pale face and coughing from time to time, one couldn't help but suspect that something was wrong with him.Finally, someone couldn't help asking. Seeing Zhao Yuan's increasingly ugly face, someone even whispered, "Your Majesty, are you poisoned? But just like the rumors in the market, say!"

"Who said I was poisoned? I just caught the cold by chance. Yes, I caught the cold by chance!" A trace of obvious panic flashed across his face, and Zhao Yuan continued, "I was a little frightened by the assassination yesterday, and I also got a little cold. That’s why. As long as you rest for a while, you can recover!”

"Your Majesty, there are rumors in the market that say...!"

"What are the rumors in the market? Tell me!"

Looking at the person who spoke, Zhao Yuan's cold, blade-like eyes pierced his face with pain, the person couldn't help but lowered his head again, and said in a low voice, "There are rumors in the market that His Majesty was injured by a strange poison yesterday, maybe There is not much time left!"

"Nonsense, it's all rumors in the market, don't take it seriously, you see, I'm alive and well now, ahem!" Before he finished speaking, Zhao Yuan hurriedly covered his lips with his hand, but the bright red at the corner of his mouth was covered The sharp-eyed person saw it in his heart.These people just looked at each other cautiously and didn't speak any more.

"Your Majesty is not poisoned, so it is naturally the best. However, Your Majesty should pay more attention to your health and get more rest." He glanced at Zhao Yuan carefully and said slowly, "But now there are rumors flying all over the capital. Your Majesty is seriously ill with a strange poison, and his life is short!"

"Hmph, cough cough!" His face turned cold, Zhao Yuan couldn't help but slapped the table hard, but he didn't know if he was using too much force, Zhao Yuan couldn't help coughing.The corner of the mouth was bleeding even more, but Zhao Yuan wiped it off hastily.

"Your Majesty, are you alright?"

"I'm fine!" After taking a few deep breaths, Zhao Yuan said slowly, "You are all important ministers of the country, you should put all your thoughts on the important affairs of the country, how can you believe such rumors in the market!"

"But the power of the Dazheng Kingdom depends on His Majesty alone, so His Majesty must not."

"Enough!" Unable to interrupt these people with a wave of his hand, Zhao Yuan said coldly, "I was assassinated yesterday, and today there are all kinds of rumors spreading in the market, and some people even say that my life is not long. Such words , It must be spread by someone with a heart. As important ministers of the country, not only do you not know how to stop it, but instead contribute to the flames, what is your intention?"

"I am guilty!"

"Okay, I understand in my heart that you, my lords, are fighting for the country, but I hope that this kind of thing will never happen again in the future!" After saying a few words intermittently, Zhao Yuan then looked down and continued, "My lords, too. You see, I have been feeling cold these past few days, so I am a little weak. I am afraid I won’t be able to go to court early in the past few days, so I’ll leave it to you, sir, for the next few days!”

"Your Majesty is ill and should get more rest. Ministers of state and other ministers should do their best. Your Majesty, please rest assured!"

The morning passed in a dull mood, and Zhao Yuan's performance was very bad during the whole process.Not only did he speak weakly, but he often coughed uncontrollably, as if he would be out of breath the next moment.Soon, the morning court was completed, and Zhao Yuan immediately returned to the inner palace with the help of his servants, without seeing anyone again.

As for Zhao Yuan in his own hall, he did not have the slightest appearance of the sick child in the early court, and his whole person seemed to be alive and well.It's just that Zhao Yuan's complexion is not very good at the moment, and he seems to be in a very bad mood.

Just now, news came from Jinyiwei that Dr. Feng, who treated him yesterday, committed suicide at home after returning home.What's even worse is that this matter has now spread throughout the capital.Rumors have been flying all over the capital, and now they are even more boiling.

Nowadays, the rumors on the street are getting more and more intense. They say anything, but they are pointed directly at Zhao Yuan.The contents are similar. They all say that Zhao Yuan was poisoned and that in order to cover up the matter, the doctor Feng who treated him was secretly executed.

Originally, such rumors could not sway people's hearts, but they could not stop those who were interested in adding fuel to the flames.Now that Zhao Yuan is looking sick again, anyone who cares can't help but connect these two things.

You must know that the Dazheng Kingdom has been a single inheritance since the founding of the country. In other words, Zhao Yuan has no brothers at all, not to mention that he is not married yet and has no children to inherit the throne.

Once something happens to him, Dazheng Kingdom will inevitably fall apart in an instant.The rumors on the street seem powerless, but they are surprisingly lethal, and can disintegrate the fighting spirit of the Taizheng Kingdom in the shortest possible time.The emperor is gone, so why fight, why not find a new owner early and vote for it quickly.

"The water in the capital is really getting more and more muddy!" Looking at the scenery outside the hall, Zhao Yuan murmured, "They all want to fish in troubled waters, but I want to see who is the oriole!"

At night, there was a curfew in the capital of the Dazheng Kingdom, and the streets of the entire capital were quiet, without a trace of people.In a magnificent mansion, the lights are brightly lit at the moment.

The hall was full of people, and there were several voices from time to time.Hearing the conversation inside, the boys outside shrank their heads, and couldn't help but take a few steps back, as if they were extremely afraid of hearing the voice inside.

"Lord Su, you have also seen the situation of His Majesty in the past few days. The old man dares to conclude that the little emperor must be poisoned. The accidental cold is just a deception!"

"That's right!" After saying this, another person then said, "Ever since he overthrew the prime minister and the general, the little emperor has been working diligently and firmly holding all the power in his hands. Now he suddenly let go and hasn't gone to court for several days. I'm afraid it's not for rest and treatment, but to find famous doctors to detoxify him!"

"Hmph, the little emperor thinks too simply. This is a strange poison that the Jade Prince bought from the Medicine King Valley in our southern region at a great cost. How can it be cured by ordinary quack doctors? According to what the people sent by the Jade Prince said, this is The poison is so powerful that even a trace of it can kill someone!"

"Yes, the reason why the little emperor is fine is just that he is lucky. Those guards fought tooth and nail to protect him at that time, so only a little bit of poison entered the body. In addition, Dr. Feng's medical skills are also very good, and he was treated in time, so he was able to temporarily Save his life!"

"But Dr. Feng also said that he could only suppress this strange poison for a month with all his efforts. If nothing unexpected happens, he will definitely die in a month. I am afraid that the little emperor can find a peerless doctor to help him Once the poison is detoxified, then I’m afraid”

"What are you afraid of? Even if we can find such a famous doctor, what can we do? The little emperor only has one month. One month, I don't believe he can find it within one month. Even if we find it, the situation is already established, and the little emperor will also Can't turn the sky!"

"Okay!" The old man sitting on the main seat suddenly said, looked down, and then said slowly, "Now we have not accomplished anything, and it is not time to be happy. Mr. Feng, taking advantage of the rumors in the market these days, Let those of us in the Forbidden Army move!"

"Lord Su, I'm afraid it's impossible!" Hearing what the old man said, the person below couldn't help but said, "We have very little power in the imperial army. Once exposed, I'm afraid the little emperor will immediately take them all down!"

"What are you afraid of? If you are taken down, take it down. What a pity!" The old man snorted disdainfully, and the old man said lightly, "I want you to do this because of two reasons. One is to use this to drag the little emperor. , so that he has no time to find a famous doctor to detoxify. On the other hand, it is to make the little emperor feel dangerous, so that Yan Yingyuan from Dayong Pass will be transferred back!

"In this way, Dayong Pass will be completely controlled by General Fang. No wonder Yan Yingyuan was so arrogant at Dayong Pass that he dared to encroach on General Fang's military power. Moreover, Yan Yingyuan does have some abilities, and he can fight against nearly 20 people from the Dayu Kingdom. The army has not fallen behind at all, and the prestige within the army is getting higher and higher day by day. This makes General Fang extremely dissatisfied, so he agreed to cooperate with us!"

"Yeah, blame the little emperor for doing it himself!" snorted coldly, and the other person couldn't help interjecting, "If the little emperor hadn't been so conceited, he would have wanted three parties to fight at the same time. This three-sided battle is the way to death, but he didn't care about it." The ministers stopped him from going his own way. He wanted to die, but we couldn’t be buried with him. General Fang is also a person who knows the times, so he naturally knows the reason why people go to high places and water flows to low places!”

"Yes, as long as General Fang controls the Dayong Pass, the 20 troops of Dayu Kingdom will be able to drive straight into the capital in an instant, and there will be no opponents under the front. At that time, we will all be great heroes. It's not impossible either!"

"Master Su's words are very true, I'll just wait for the reward, haha!" After saying this, everyone couldn't help laughing loudly, as if pointing the country, as if the general situation had been completely controlled by them.But no one noticed that on the roof of the hall where they were, a vague figure was lurking secretly!
