Shangguan Ruoche didn't have any clues about the antidote, and the chief physician who was in charge of the forbidden medicine was also killed by the prince a few days ago, because he couldn't cure the emperor's illness.However, regarding Shangguan Yunqian's illness, there were always only rumors and no one was seen.Afterwards, the eunuchs and court ladies who had been served by Shangguan Yunqian disappeared one after another.

"My lord, it's been three days and the fifth prince hasn't moved yet." Luo Zishan stared at Shangguan Ruoche according to Shangguan Ruochun's order, but he had no intention of going to meet the emperor.

"Now he is the closest to the throne, and it is also the time when his mood changes the most. If he refuses to pick him up, there are only two possibilities. One is that Shangguan Yunqian is dead and there is no need to pick him up again. The other possibility is that he doesn't know that the emperor has been killed Where is his prince and brother hiding? What he said to you that day was just a show, and he also needs to find some reasons for himself to take over the position of supervisor."

"Then should we attack, directly?" Luo Zishan was thinking, what is Shangguan Ruochun waiting for?Shangguan Ruohong is dead, and the people who were originally attached to the prince will naturally not all join the fifth prince. This is the best time for them to win over.

"I think Yichen might know." Shangguan Ruochun guarded Lin Yichen for three days. During these three days, she did not return to the palace, but stayed in Luofu.

"But the Crown Princess doesn't know when she will wake up. If it continues, something will happen." Now they have the upper hand, but it's just a long delay, and the fifth prince is not a light-saving lamp.

"Find Shangguan Yunqian, the fifth child has to obediently give up. He must be more anxious than us now, let him do this hard work, and we, the orioles, will just wait behind." Shangguan Ruochun wiped his hands , I ate something just now, but slipped my hand again.

"Why don't we use Shangguan Jiu as bait?" Luo Zhenke asked. He seldom expresses his opinions these days, and most of them are Luo Zishan walking around.

"I won't need her for the time being." Shangguan Ruochun paused, not liking this suggestion very much.

"Using her is the fastest way. Shangguan Yunqian also has a little affection for this daughter. He is very strict with other people. If it weren't for our people lurking inside for a long time and secretly injecting medicine, I'm afraid it won't work so quickly."

"I said, I don't need her! Is it true that I, Shangguan Ruochun, must take the exam for a princess to ascend to the throne?" Shangguan Ruochun sternly expressed his opinion, and the rest of the people stopped talking. Obviously, Shangguan Jiu was captured by Prince Chun. Protected.

Luo Zishan's expression was a bit weird, he was a little suspicious now that Shangguan Ruochun said that he wanted to keep Shangguan Jiu as a bargaining chip, did he have other plans?Not to threaten the emperor, but to protect the princess.There is no benefit in just protecting Shangguan Jiu. Who would be so stupid as to keep an enemy behind? Could it be impossible for her to seek revenge on herself in the future?Just like the current Shangguan Ruochun.

"Alright, it's time for me to go back to the mansion to have a look. As long as Lao Wu doesn't move, we won't move." Before leaving, Shangguan Ruochun ordered again.Now she faintly felt that she couldn't control these old guys.Although Mingli was always asking her for instructions, she was a little uncertain about what they did behind the scenes.

"Mo Xin, can you do me a favor?" Back at the palace, Shangguan Ruochun went straight to Gu Panli's courtyard, where Mo Xin lives now.

"You're welcome, we're all on the same boat." Mo Xin was accompanying her in Gu Panli's room for the next session, and seemed to be in a good mood.

When Gu Panli saw Shangguan Ruochun coming, she was not as restrained as before, nor too excited, as usual, she only stepped back a little.Shangguan Ruochun turned his head to look at her, was silent for a while, and then said again: "Panli, you also come here together, I'm afraid I will need your help in this matter."

"What? Me? I can still do things for you..." Gu Panli didn't expect that Shangguan Ruochun would ask her to do things. This made her very happy. There is also a brilliance on the face.

"I'm keeping you, isn't it just to let you do things?" Shangguan Ruochun pretended to be strict, like a landlord oppressing farmers.But the other two could see that she was just looking for a way for herself and Panli.

Afterwards, Shangguan Ruochun explained the plan to the two in detail, and the two looked serious after listening, but there was no sign of evasion. "My lord, do you mean that Shangguan Yunqian hid on purpose?" Panli had followed Shangguan Ruochun for a long time, so she could hear the meaning in her words.

"In the past few years, his suspicion has become more and more serious. He even refuses to stay with the servants. I think he deliberately tried to let the prince supervise the country before. Now that the two sons are fighting, one of them has gone, and he still does not move. In terms of sensuality, it is estimated that even the fifth child has given up."

"But isn't he most important to these two princes? If there are none left, this country?" Mo Xin didn't quite understand that the emperor could indeed test and eliminate heirs with ulterior motives, but he couldn't kill himself.

"What he is most on guard against is me. Sacrifice his two sons, draw out the forces behind me, and then wipe them all out, so that he can really rest easy. Besides, he is still in his prime, and the little princes are still underage. In the future, there will be plenty of new heirs to be trained. Time." Shangguan Ruochun can only express all her thoughts in her own mansion, before that in Luo mansion, she also listened to other people's opinions more than expressing herself.

"It's okay to check Shangguan Yunqian for you, but I always feel that the Luo family is not very reliable, you'd better be more careful. Panli will stay in the capital to help you, and I'll take care of this matter." Mo Xin She doesn't plan to leave Beijing with Gu Panli.

"What does the lord mean?" Seeing that Shangguan Ruochun didn't answer for a long time, Gu Panli asked again.

"Don't think about it anymore, I will leave Ye Ruotao's people to you, and I will leave you the token, you can just treat it as an emergency." Mo Xin threw out the token readily, she knew what Shangguan Ruochun was worried about just now.She was worried that if Mo Xin brought Ye Ruotao back to Yue, then she really would have no one to trust.

Only then did Shangguan Ruochun nod his head in agreement, and that night, Mo Xin confessed to Ye Ruotao and left Beijing straight away.

"Why, are you worried about her?" Looking at Gu Panli's empty eyes, Shangguan Ruochun joked.

"Worried? Who should worry about her." Gu Panli is still a little embarrassed with Shangguan Ruochun now, but it is gradually melting, and the relationship between them is much better than before.

"Okay, I won't delay you anymore, you should go to bed early, your spirit is not good these days." Shangguan Ruochun got up, only then realized that he was also very sleepy.

"Hurry up and go back to coax your concubine, I heard that she is very haggard these days." Not to be outdone, Gu Panli opened the door to send Shangguan Ruochun away, not forgetting to make up for it behind her back.

Shangguan Ruochun frowned and walked back. She left in a hurry that day and didn't have time to tell Yunyao herself. In fact, she avoided meeting Ji Yunyao's eyes.Afterwards, a series of things happened, which made her have no time to take care of them. Although people sent people to return home from time to time, it was still worse than her coming back in person.

"Yunyao?" Pushing open the door, the silence was terrifying, Shangguan Ruochun walked in to take a look.

"Are you back?" Ji Yunyao put down the book in her hand, walked over as usual, took the robe she took off, and smiled faintly.

"Why are you so quiet? I thought you weren't here just now." Shangguan Ruochun glanced at her a few times, seeing that the expression on her face was as usual, she was not unhappy at all.

"I'm alone, and I'm not in a lively mood, so I just read a book by myself." Ji Yunyao smiled sadly.

When he woke up that morning, Shangguan Ruochun was no longer by his side, and then a servant sent a message that the prince had something important to do and would stay overnight in Luo Mansion.This stay is for three days.Since returning to Beijing, she has never been home for such a long time.Ji Yunyao knew she was busy, but she still couldn't help feeling disappointed.

The next day, Luo Zishan came to the door in person and said that Shangguan Ruochun sent him to say something.It is always inconvenient for servants to pass on messages, but when he comes, he can speak in more detail.Only now did Ji Yunyao know that something serious happened in the palace, the prince was killed by the fifth prince, and the concubine was in a coma and has not woken up to this day.Moreover, Shangguan Ruochun didn't return all night, he was in the Luo Mansion, guarding the Crown Princess.

Ji Yunyao told herself that Lin Yixin played a key role in the whole incident, and Shangguan Ruochun's concern for her was also out of concern among friends.But she still felt uncomfortable, and sent Luozishan away after a while.She is not in the mood to take care of Luo Zishan now, and Luo Zishan's excessive concern for her also makes her feel awkward. She is completely satisfied that it is Shangguan Ruochun, and she has long since wanted to hear Luo Zishan say anything about the so-called love in the past.Before Shangguan Ruochun, the only time she was faintly tempted was to Shangguan Ruochun's elder brother.

"I'm a little tired, let's rest early." After asking Ji Yunyao if she had eaten dinner, Shangguan Ruochun went to take a bath, and when she returned to her room refreshed, she was already yawning.

"Good." Ji Yunyao stepped forward to undress her, lowered her eyebrows, but she didn't hear any displeasure.

Shangguan Ruochun was really tired. During the three days in Luo Mansion, she was worried about Lin Yichen's condition and couldn't sleep well.Being in the Luo Mansion, she naturally did not dare to rest assured to sleep, even if she took a nap, she would still be half asleep and half awake, which was even more tormenting.

She originally wanted to say a few words about getting angry with Ji Yunyao that day, but seeing that Ji Yunyao didn't seem to be unusual, and didn't mention the matter of that day again, she didn't bother to talk about it, lest it would be unpleasant again.Returning to his room, with the scent of Ji Yunyao again, Shangguan Ruochun felt even more drowsy, wishing he could fall on the bed immediately.It's very hard to survive until now, and I still blame Gu Panli for making a fuss over a molehill, saying that Ji Yunyao is haggard, doesn't she look good?Looks normal.

"Ah." In the deep night, Shangguan Ruochun was already fast asleep, breathing very evenly, Ji Yunyao propped himself up, looked at the outline of the person beside the pillow by the moonlight, and remained silent for a long time.

In fact, she didn't know what to say. The two of them were already so close when they were together. They met each other with their hearts and bodies, so why were they still so uneasy?Why is it that when she leans in Shangguan Ruochun's arms, she always feels that there is something between her heart.But she couldn't help her affection, her heart for Shangguan Ruochun had already surpassed any time before, the more they depended on each other in a difficult and dangerous situation, the more this nostalgia deepened.
