He conspired against her in his previous life, and he flirted with her on their wedding night again

Xie Jingyan held Shen Wan's waist and watched the observation building being swallowed up by the fire.

On the other side of the pharmacy, the secret guards were engaged in a fierce battle with the assassins, but Xie Jingyan did not go. It was important to protect the eldest prince, but it was more important to ensure that Shen Wan was safe.

Without Shen Wan, it would be meaningless for him to seize the country.

Xie Jingyan was already on guard, catching a turtle in a urn, and the assassin would never come back.

However, Xie Jingyan's plan was to capture a few people alive, but the assassin who came was a group of dead soldiers. The moment the assassin was caught, he crushed the poison hidden in his teeth and died on the spot.

Twelve assassins, none survived.

There was some disappointment, but fortunately the eldest prince, Doctor Tao, and Zhao Yuanzheng were all fine, but there was definitely some shock.

Although their medical skills are good, they are still powerless. If an assassin really breaks into the pharmacy, he will have to kill him with a knife.

Zhao Yuanzheng suddenly understood why King Ling asked him to report the Queen Mother like that. It was to lure the snake out of its hole and lure the enemy into taking the bait. But how dare King Ling do that? He had a pregnant princess, and he himself had been assassinated again and again, so he was not afraid of assassins coming. Are you going to kill him and the princess together?

All the assassins were killed, and the secret guards dragged away the assassins' bodies, and peace returned to the pharmacy.

In the observation tower, the maids and servants put out the fire. They did not stop until the observation tower was burned into ruins.

But that night, all the civil and military officials couldn't sleep when they saw that Prince Ling's mansion was on fire, as well as the emperor and the queen mother.

The Queen Mother was so worried that she couldn't sleep a wink all night, and the Emperor even sent out shadow guards. The shadow guards brought back the news that Xie Jingyan and the eldest prince were fine, and she felt relieved.

The Queen Mother placed the eldest prince in Prince Ling's Mansion because she was afraid that the eldest prince would be poisoned again. The Queen Mother thought of the eldest prince, so the emperor turned a blind eye. But now that Xie Jingyan was involved, the emperor could no longer sit idly by.

Early the next morning, Eunuch Yuan came to Prince Ling's Mansion.

The arrival of Eunuch Yuan really made Guanshi Zhou confused. The prince had said that no one was allowed to enter the palace without his permission. Even if Aunt Zhao who was next to the Queen Mother came, he would block people from the door. Eunuch Yuan, he Do you want to stop it?

Seeing the embarrassment of Manager Zhou, Yuan Gong said fairly, "I came to see the prince, not the eldest prince."

Manager Zhou thought that only Eunuch Yuan could enter the mansion alone, so he accompanied him to Mo Yuxuan. The prince would not blame him, so he immediately led Eunuch Yuan into the mansion.

At that time, Shen Wan and Xie Jingyan had just finished breakfast. When they went out, they saw Manager Zhou leading Eunuch Yuan over.

Xie Jingyan stepped down the steps. Eunuch Yuan stepped forward to salute Xie Jingyan and said, "Last night, the viewing building of Prince Ling's Mansion was flooded. The Emperor was very worried. He was afraid that if the eldest prince stayed in Prince Ling's Mansion, something would happen to Prince Ling and Princess Ling as well." , let the servant send the eldest prince to a separate courtyard for rest."

Xie Jingyan knew about the emperor's sending of shadow guards to Prince Ling's Mansion.

Xie Jingyan said, "The person who wanted to kill the eldest prince even broke into my Prince Ling's residence twice. He was sent to another hospital to rest. I'm afraid he will die if he is still sent here."

Eunuch Yuan was shocked, "The assassin came to Prince Ling's Mansion twice?"

Xie Jingyan said, "The first time only two assassins came, and they were discovered as soon as they entered the house."

Duke Yuan said honestly, "But the safety of the prince and princess..."

Xie Jingyan said, "The Queen Mother is confident in handing over the eldest prince to me. Why aren't you, my father? If he sent the eldest prince away after the observation tower was burned down, doesn't that mean I'm afraid of the assassin?"

Mr. Yuan said fairly, "The emperor is confident about the prince. He is just worried that the princess is pregnant and something might go wrong..."

Before Eunuch Yuan could finish his words, Xie Jingyan interrupted him and said, "When the eldest prince wakes up, I won't ask whether he will return to the palace or go to another courtyard to rest. It's better to stay in Prince Ling's Mansion for now."

No one could persuade Xie Jingyan to change his decision, so Eunuch Yuan stopped persuading him and returned to the palace to resume his duties.

Royal study room.

The emperor stood by the window and watched the floating clouds in the sky.

Eunuch Yuan lowered his steps and stepped forward, saying, "Your Majesty, Prince Ling asked the eldest prince to stay in Prince Ling's Mansion for treatment."

The emperor said, "He is not afraid of assassins."

Eunuch Yuan smiled and said, "I have watched Prince Ling grow up, and I have never seen anyone afraid of him."

A few assassins just want to scare King Ling, but that's impossible.

The emperor also knew what kind of temper his son was. The queen mother handed the eldest prince into his hands. From the moment he agreed, the queen mother could not take the eldest prince away without his consent.

The emperor said, "Have you seen the eldest prince?"

Eunuch Yuan shook his head.

He forgot that the emperor's back was turned to him, and he shook his head and couldn't see it.

After reacting, Eunuch Yuan hurriedly said, "Prince Ling was on guard against someone plotting to kill the eldest prince, so he closed the door to thank guests. The servant said he only saw Prince Ling, and then Manager Zhou let him go. The servant did not dare to say that he was going to see the eldest prince."

Knowing that the emperor was worried about the eldest prince, Duke Yuan said, "Don't worry, your emperor. With Zhao Yuanzheng and Dr. Xu here, as well as Doctor Tao, we will definitely be able to cure the eldest prince."

The emperor withdrew his gaze and issued an order, "Ask the Imperial Army to guard Prince Ling's Mansion."

"Anyone who breaks into Prince Ling's Mansion without permission will be killed without mercy!"

In the pharmacy, Zhao Yuan was changing the dressing on the eldest prince's wound. It had been almost three days and the wound was still bleeding. They really tried their best.

The medicines given to the eldest prince are all the best. Doctor Tao took out all the good medicines from the bottom of the box, but the eldest prince's injury was really too serious. In just three days, the eldest prince lost several pounds, and his face All turned greenish white.

Zhao Yuanzheng, Imperial Physician Xu and Doctor Tao discussed it.

It was unanimously decided that if the government continues to be governed so conservatively, the eldest prince will undoubtedly die.

To treat a serious illness, strong medicine is needed, and the eldest prince's condition has reached a point where it is necessary to use it.

But using strong medicine also means making a desperate decision, either the condition will improve or...

The eldest prince has a noble status, so they don't dare to try it easily, and Prince Ling can't make the decision on such a big thing.

Zhao Yuanzheng said to Xie Jingyan, "The situation of the eldest prince is getting worse and worse. We have to ask the emperor and the queen mother for instructions to make a final attempt, and -"

"be quick."

Xie Jingyan frowned, "What will happen if I don't use it?"

Zhao Yuanzheng said, "The eldest prince will not be able to survive tonight."

"What will happen if you take the medicine accidentally?" Xie Jingyan asked again.

"You won't survive until noon."

Xie Jingyan said, "Is there any need to ask? Give the eldest prince medicine immediately."

"But--"

Xie Jingyan said, "The eldest prince is already like this. It won't make any difference to him if he lives for an extra day and a half."

Zhao Yuanzheng knew that this was the case, but the Taiyuan Hospital had rules and regulations. He would just administer strong medicine without the consent of the emperor and the queen mother. Later, the emperor and the queen mother knew that they could not afford to be punished.

Xie Jingyan said, "When the Queen Mother entrusts the eldest prince to me, I have the right to act expediently."

Xie Jingyan's voice was resounding and unquestionable.

Zhao Yuanzheng looked at each other and said no more. The medicine was actually prepared last night, but they were just lucky. Maybe the eldest prince's condition could be improved without such a poisonous medicine. After all, they thought too well. .

There is no chance of any luck now, Zhao Yuan is preparing the medicine himself.

Two quarters of an hour later.

A bowl of black medicine is ready.

You can smell the bitterness from far away.

When the medicine cooled down a little, Zhao Yuan was feeding the eldest prince one spoonful after another.

After taking this medicine, the rest is left to fate.
