When Nan Rongjing saw Prince Jin's tears, the anger in his heart instantly subsided.

He had long heard that his father had fought bravely on the battlefield for many years and had been injured countless times, but he had never frowned once. But now the news about his mother made this nine-foot man cry.

"Okay, I'll go with you."

Upon hearing this, King Jin finally smiled on his sad face.

"it is good!"

The father and son rode side by side into the city gate. The guards did not dare to stop them, so they rode towards Xishui Street.

"Jing'er, are we going back home first?"

"I'll take you to see someone." A hint of tenderness appeared in the corners of Nan Rongjing's eyes.

Half an hour later, Lin Yushu was urged by Mu Shang to come to Prince Jin's Mansion. She was rarely nervous.

"Meet Prince Jin."

Seeing Lin Yushu bowing to him politely, Prince Jin smiled happily and thought to himself, this brat's vision is as good as his!

"Your Majesty, there is no need to be polite."

Nan Rongjing quickly repeated King Jin's words. After listening, Lin Yushu fell into deep thought.

Prince Jin on the side was very surprised. Although he had not seen Nan Rongjing for many years, they were connected as father and son after all, and he was very aware of Nan Rongjing's lonely and cold personality.

But he didn't expect that the little girl in front of him had such a great influence that Nan Rongjing actually told her all the most secret things in their mansion.

"I understand. I will go into the palace with you."

"Wait!" Prince Jin was confused, "Why does the princess want to enter the palace?"

Nan Rongjing puffed out his chest, looking proud.

"Shu'er is the best poisoner in the capital, no, in the Great Zhou. Even the poison in my body was suppressed by her!"

Seeing the pride on Nan Rongjing's face, Prince Jin now understood a little bit that this Princess Shuyi was no simple matter!

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. Although I may not be able to completely cure the poison in His Majesty's body, I can at least make sure that he regains consciousness and can explain the past to you clearly!"

In less than an hour, the three of them arrived at the gate of the Qianqing Palace.

It was past noon, but the autumn sun was still scorching. The courtiers kneeling in front of the door were all dizzy from the sun, and two of them even fainted.

Whenever someone fainted, the imperial guards would immediately step forward and carry the fainted person to the Imperial Hospital for treatment. This was the Empress Dowager's order.

These court officials never imagined that from the time they knelt at the gate of the Qianqing Palace to the time they fainted and were carried away, they not only did not see the Emperor Ming from beginning to end, but also did not see the Empress, the Empress Dowager and other people who could make the decision.

The empress dowager had just finished lunch and the maid behind her was fanning her gently, bringing a cool breeze, which was very comfortable.

"How many people fainted?"

"Replying to the Queen Mother, it's seven."

The Queen Mother nodded and said, "Yes, seven of the more than thirty court officials had fainted, and the rest were holding on."

Anyone with a bit of common sense should have understood the Queen Mother's intentions at this moment. Pretending to faint early would be the right thing to do and would also save one's own face.

So in two hours at most, all these annoying old stubborn people will be carried away.

"Your Majesty, the Prince of Jin, the Prince of Jin, and Princess Shuyi wish to see you."

"Xuan!"

Prince Jin, Nan Rongjing and Lin Yushu walked through the kneeling courtiers and entered the Qianqing Palace.

There were also several imperial doctors from the Imperial Medical Bureau standing by the door of the main hall. They were waiting to be summoned by the empress dowager. As long as Emperor Ming had any questions, they had to appear at the first moment.

When Lin Yushu walked past them, the five imperial doctors lowered their heads to show respect.

When passing by one of the imperial physicians, Lin Yushu paused, frowned, and then walked past as if nothing had happened.

Lin Yushu approached Nan Rongjing and whispered a few words.

After Nan Rongjing heard this, his eyes suddenly darkened. He nodded and instructed Mu Shang who was standing at the door...

When they arrived at the palace, the three of them bowed and greeted the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother stared at Prince Jin with indifference.

"Qingyang, why did you return to the capital without being summoned?"

"Please forgive me, mother. I heard that my brother was seriously ill and I was very anxious, so I hurried back to the capital."

The Queen Mother sneered.

"It would take at least half a month to rush back to the capital from Youzhou. The emperor has only been ill for eight days, and you have already arrived in the capital. Are you so worried about the emperor that you can make the horse run like a god and travel a thousand miles a day?"

Prince Jin lowered his head and said nothing.

The Queen Mother looked at him, sighed, and her expression softened a little.

"I have seen everything you have done for the emperor and the Great Zhou over the years, but you must know that the emperor is in poor health now. Your return at this time will only cause more chaos in the capital."

With a thud, Prince Jin kowtowed hard.

"I know I am guilty. I just want to ask you something. After that, I will let you decide whether to beat me or kill me!"

"But the emperor is in his current state... I'm afraid you won't be able to get anything out of him."

Lin Yushu immediately stepped forward and replied loudly.

"Your Highness, I was extremely worried when I learned that Your Majesty had passed away. I searched through ancient books and studied day and night, and finally found a suitable prescription!"

As she spoke, Lin Yushu handed over a prescription.

The Queen Mother quickly called in the five imperial doctors who were guarding outside the palace. After they studied the case for a while, Yuan Zheng came back with joy.

"Reporting to Her Majesty the Queen Mother, this prescription is effective!"

The Queen Mother finally smiled after a long period of gloomy face. "Go and boil the medicine!"

"Yes!"

After an incense stick of time, the hospital director brought the medicine, and Pingyang *** took it and fed it to him spoonful by spoonful.

Unfortunately, Emperor Ming's teeth were clenched so he could only feed half of the medicine into his body.

"It's okay. Feed him again in three hours. That will be enough."

Lin Yushu gently comforted Mrs. Pingyang, who nodded gratefully.

After taking the medicine for a while, Emperor Ming actually woke up.

The Queen Mother smiled as if relieved, and Lady Pingyang cried with joy.

After confirming the condition of Emperor Ming with Yuan Zheng, the Queen Mother led Princess Pingyang away, and before leaving, she gave Prince Jin earnest instructions.

"The emperor has just woken up, don't stimulate him."

Prince Jin was stunned, but then bowed and obeyed the order. The Queen Mother must know something, otherwise why would she say such words to him!

The only person left in the room was Emperor Ming, lying weakly on the bed, Prince Jin sitting beside the bed, and Lin Yushu and Nan Rongjing standing beside him.

But Lin Yushu knew in her heart that there must be many secret guards hiding in the dark corners that they couldn't see.

Given Emperor Ming's suspicious character, it is estimated that in addition to the Gongfang, there were also palace guards hiding throughout the palace, secretly monitoring the situation there.

"Qingyang?"
