The eldest lady is reborn, get out of the way!
Chapter 227 Who wouldn’t be tempted by the throne?
The old doctor examined King Xuan's pulse and said that the detoxification pills could neutralize most of the poison. Together with his medicine, the remaining poison could be eliminated within seven days.
After hearing this, King Xuan insisted on returning to his own tent, saying that it was unreasonable.
Emperor Rong'an was unable to persuade King Xuan, so he had to let King Xuan ride back on his own precious staff.
Emperor Rong'an almost granted King Xuan's requests at this moment, and he also gave out the emperor's ceremonial guard voluntarily.
But it is the emperor's ceremonial guard after all.
When this incident spread, the King of Wei was so angry that he smashed the Buddhist beads in his hand and almost couldn't help cursing.
Wen Yanzhen walked in with the bird's nest, and seeing the broken beads on the ground, she walked around them without changing her expression.
"Your Highness, why should you be angry? This is just the love that His Majesty has for his son."
The King of Wei looked at Wen Yanzhen, his tone showing an anger that he could not suppress at all: "That is the emperor's ceremonial guard."
Wen Yanzhen smiled slowly: "Your Highness, don't you know our emperor and father yet?"
"I have always loved the affection of family members. King Xuan almost risked his life to save him."
"Some bias is normal."
The King of Wei was not a brainless person, he was just too angry that Ying Shuo had seized the opportunity.
After hearing Wen Yanzhen's words, he calmed down a lot.
"According to the princess's opinion, what should I do?"
King Wei's trust in Wen Yan really exceeded that of ordinary concubines.
He and Wen Yanzhen have the same ambition, and their goal is the same: the noble throne.
Wen Yanzhen picked up the bird's nest with both hands and handed it to King Wei: "Your Highness, please fulfill your duties as the eldest brother."
"Just be humble and subservient to King Xuan in front of your father."
King Wei took the bird's nest and went over Wen Yanzhen's words in his mind.
He said, "You mean I should respect him?"
"Father is not an impulsive person. The ceremonial procession is only because he loves his son."
Wen Yanzhen's elegant face remained calm and composed: "But the position of the crown prince is not for me."
The King of Wei nodded and continued, "Father may not be unaware of the consequences of the ceremonial procession."
"If I behave the same as others, I will mistakenly think that Father likes the Second Brother and should be more humble to him."
"If the court orders the censors to add fuel to the fire, as long as the second son shows any ambition, the emperor will definitely be dissatisfied."
Like Wen Yanzhen, King Wei also knew Emperor Rong'an's temperament very well.
Or perhaps, emperors are all so suspicious and sensitive.
He wants the father-son relationship of ordinary families, but he also has absolute power over life and death.
The saying "serving the emperor is like serving a tiger" is no joke.
Wen Yanzhen smiled and said, "When my second brother makes a mistake, I might as well give him a push."
The King of Wei stirred the bird's nest in the bowl and looked at Wen Yanzhen with a smile: "What the princess said is right."
Even if the second son is careful in what he says and does, can't he find out his mistakes for his father?
Wen Yanzhen saw the King of Wei's smile and whispered, "Just don't forget about the assassination, Your Highness."
When this matter was mentioned, the King of Wei was extremely displeased.
He had already made a plan, but he didn't expect the second brother to not accept it at all.
He even asked his father to drive him away, but those people were blind and took action even when he was not around.
The second brother got the advantage.
King Wei couldn't help but ask, "I have asked the people in front of the emperor, and besides the assassins from Qianshan Tower, there is also a eunuch."
"The second brother almost died at the hands of that eunuch."
Wen Yanzhen immediately sensed something was wrong, and she pressed the issue, "Isn't that eunuch someone appointed by the prince?"
"It's not me." King Wei said with a gloomy face.
Wen Yanzhen frowned slightly, "Your Majesty, please check the people around you carefully, I'm afraid someone has leaked the news."
Since the King of Wei just wanted to put on a show, there was no need to go to the trouble of arranging eunuchs.
It was because of the presence of that eunuch that this scene became a real assassination.
Wen Yan's heart skipped a beat, and she looked towards the direction of King Xuan's tent: "It seems that my second brother's injury is indeed worth it."
Regardless of who leaked the news from King Wei's side, Wen Yanzhen had already determined that the eunuch's affairs were closely related to King Xuan.
The King of Wei also reacted. His face was so gloomy that water could drip out of it: "I actually let the second brother trick me."
Wen Yanzhen looked at King Wei, "The most urgent thing is that the assassins from Qianshan Tower cannot be left alive."
In Wen Yanzhen's opinion, if she were King Xuan, the eunuchs would definitely clean up all the clues.
But somehow there was still a survivor in Qianshan Tower.
Even though he knew that the killer might not know who was behind the scenes, Wen Yanzhen still felt that only the dead could keep a secret completely.
King Wei nodded, "I will arrange it."
Wen Yanzhen reminded: "Although the person is in Pang Guangde's hands, Lu Qingxiao may not let this go."
When it comes to Lu Qingxiao, Wen Yanzhen feels a little tricky.
"Your Highness, could you please recruit this cousin for your own use?" Wen Yanzhen asked.
King Wei frowned, "He has always been unkind. It will be difficult to get him to stand on my side."
Seeing this, Wen Yanzhen nodded and said, "If that's the case, then it's better for him not to marry the Duke of Ying."
Regardless of the purpose, Wen Yan really didn't want to have such a powerful marriage behind King Xuan.
King Wei and Wen Yanzhen looked at each other, and the couple each had their own plans in mind.

King Xuan returned to his tent, so it was inconvenient for Jiang Zhiyue to stay any longer.
Before leaving, she repeatedly reminded Nanny Yu that if her elder sister needed anything, she must send someone to find her.
After Nanny Yu gave her repeated assurances, Jiang Zhiyue finally felt relieved.
She went inside to say goodbye to her sister.
Jiang Lingyun and King Xuan exchanged glances.
King Xuan nodded slowly, and Jiang Lingyun stood up and walked to Jiang Zhiyue and whispered something.
Jiang Zhiyue reacted quickly and blinked at Jiang Lingyun.
Jiang Lingyun said: "I have so many people taking care of you here, you don't have to worry."
King Xuan also smiled and said, "Little Achan has done a great deed today. Your elder brother-in-law will certainly ask for a good favor for you."
When Jiang Lingyun heard this, she couldn't help but snorted and laughed: "Mother also asked for a lot of rewards for Achan."
King Xuan's face froze; he had not expected this.
Jiang Zhiyue instinctively felt that the following topic was not something he should listen to, so he quickly said goodbye and ran away.
When King Xuan saw the princess turning around and looking at him, he immediately felt a dull pain in his wound.
At this moment, all the servants had left, leaving only Prince Xuan and Jiang Lingyun.
Jiang Lingyun walked to the side of King Xuan and slowly sat down, sighing softly, "I was almost scared by you."
Achan had previously reminded Dong Lie that there might be a possibility of an assassination attempt.
So she and Ying Shuo planned to use this opportunity to make the King of Wei suffer a loss.
But Jiang Lingyun did not expect that the situation was so serious. He was even poisoned and fell into a coma.
King Xuan held Jiang Lingyun's hand and said, "I really want to thank Ah Chan. If it weren't for the old doctor's timely arrival,
"I'm afraid that Su Yuanzheng will find out that I'm unconscious."
Jiang Lingyun looked at King Xuan in silence: "The imperial physicians who came with us have all checked your pulse. Why are you trying to trick me?"
King Xuan raised his hand and touched Jiang Lingyun's face again, "Are you scared?"
Jiang Lingyun didn't say anything. Since she was married to Ying Shuo, she also knew his ambitions.
As a prince, who wouldn't be tempted by the throne?
