After I died, the sickly prince turned black

Chapter 190 Changes in the Capital

The woman was actually arranged by the sheriff to warm the bed to please the prince, because Zhao Zhen had a male concubine and had no room to use it, so he aimed at Zhao Yan.

Before coming here, she had dreamed of taking care of someone and flying up to the branches. At this moment, looking at the third prince with a black face like Hades, she was so frightened that she lost all thoughts. She put on her clothes and ran out crying.

Zhao Yan squeezed the center of his eyebrows, turned around and was about to close the door when he saw An Qi standing at the door.

Zhao Yan: "..."

Seeing An Qi's dark eyes, he suddenly felt a guilty conscience of being caught doing something bad.

"Cough!" Zhao Yan froze there, closing the door or opening it: "When did you come?"

"When she ran out of the Third Prince's room in disheveled clothes." An Qi threw back the jade pendant in his hand to Zhao Yan, turned around and left.

Zhao Yan caught the jade pendant, and then came back to his senses, rushed over and grabbed her: "Hey, what do you mean? I have nothing to do with that woman..."

"If there is something wrong just coming in, then the third prince should go to the doctor to see if there is any hidden disease."

An Qi glanced at his waist: "The stolen things are not yours, they just return to their original owners."

After saying that, An Qi broke away from Zhao Yan's pull, and jumped up and wanted to run, but as soon as he jumped, Zhao Yan hugged him around the waist and wrapped him into his arms.

"Is there any hidden disease, you will know if you try it?"

Zhao Yan carried the man on his shoulders, turned around and went back to the room, closed the door behind his back, and then threw the man onto the bed, and pressed him down without giving An Qi a chance to react: "As for the jade pendant, it's not rare to steal it. The master gave you a good piece, it is a token of love between the two of us."

"Who wants you to..."

"Duplicate little things."

As soon as Zhao Yan closed the door of this room until night, it took a full half a day to prove to An Qi whether he had hidden diseases or not.

As a result, An Qi began to hide from him again, and did not come out until the army returned to court.

"Why are you so secretive?" It was Zhao Zhen, who didn't care about anything except You Ziqing, who noticed the difference between the two of them: "He seems to hide from you even more."

Zhao Yan glanced at the carriage meaningfully: "That's it."

What is that like?

Zhao Zhen followed Zhao Yan's line of sight to look at the carriage, his eyes flickered, he understood, and immediately sneered.

Zhao Yan was inexplicably laughed.

"It doesn't seem to work." Zhao Zhen sneered: "Ziqing just sleeps, unlike the dark seven, he still has the energy to get angry. When he returns to Beijing, let Wu Taiyi prescribe you a prescription. Make up for it at a young age. It’s not okay to fall to the root of the disease.”

Zhao Yan: "..."

Isn't it just a casual sentence at the beginning, as for remembering it until now?

Zhao Yan rolled his eyes fiercely, beat his horse and ran to the front.

Zhao Zhen didn't care about him, seeing that it was getting late, he immediately ordered: "Camp up ahead, rest for one night and continue on your way tomorrow!"

However, as soon as the tents were set up here, they received an urgent and confidential letter from Prince Ning's residence, and the letter was written by Concubine Hui.

"What happened?" Seeing that Zhao Zhen looked at Xin with a strange expression, You Ziqing asked hurriedly.

Zhao Yan was still tentatively trying to find out An Qi, but when he heard this, he also turned to look at Zhao Zhen.

"Something happened in the capital." Zhao Zhen's face was solemn: "Father is dying of poison, we have to go back as soon as possible."

"Poisoned?" Zhao Yan stared in shock, "Who did it?"

"You won't know the details until you go back." Zhao Zhen handed the letter to Zhao Yan and asked him to read it himself: "It seems that there have been changes in the capital. I'm afraid it's not peaceful to go back this time. Call old general Meng You and deputy general. Arrangements are made here, and we will rush back to Beijing immediately."

Zhao Yan put away the letter and nodded, got up and walked out.

Soon, Meng Zhaoyong and You Zimo followed him into the camp.

"Your Highness asked us to come here, but what happened?" Meng Zhaoyong asked as soon as he entered the door.

"Father was poisoned, this king and the youngest have to rush back to the capital immediately, and I will leave it to the two generals." Zhao Zhen directly explained the reason.

"what?"

"The emperor is poisoned?"

The two spoke in unison, both as shocked as Zhao Yan.

You Ziqing said: "The situation in the capital is unknown, so don't just go back without preparation."

He paused and looked at the two of them: "The army's schedule is expedited, and we need to rush back as soon as possible so that we can deal with changes at any time."

The two solemnly clasped their fists together: "Don't worry, Your Highness!"

You Ziqing continued: "Besides, the capital also needs to make arrangements as soon as possible, but we are beyond our reach..."

"San'er, don't worry." You Zimo interrupted: "There are father and elder brother in the capital, they know what to do!"

"Then let's do it first." Zhao Yan said.

Without much delay, everything was arranged, and the three of them traveled lightly, brought along a group of hidden guards, and hurried back to the capital overnight.

"Can you bear it?" Although You Ziqing's health was much better than before, Zhao Zhen was still worried that he would not be able to bear it after driving non-stop for more than ten days.

"It's okay." You Ziqing was already very thin. After running around like this, he seemed to have lost weight again, but he was still in good spirits: "Continue to rush like this, and it will be about five or six days."

"Yeah." Zhao Zhen handed him the water bag: "Take a break and continue."

Just as he was talking, Zhao Yan came over: "Brother."

"Huh?" Zhao Zhen turned to look at him.

Zhao Yan sat down beside Zhao Zhen, and after a moment of silence, he said, "What's the big brother's plan for returning to Beijing this time?"

Zhao Zhen looked at him and said nothing.

Zhao Yan was afraid that he would misunderstand, so he hurriedly said: "You should be the crown prince, and that seat should be yours. Even if it is not now, there is a difference between the elders and the younger ones. The emperor is in your position, and it is justified."

"Father was just poisoned." Zhao Zhen didn't want to say more.

Until he went on the road again, Zhao Yan did not get a clear answer.

You Ziqing also wanted to ask Zhao Zhen, but the group was hurrying on their way, not the time to talk about this, so they had to swallow the words that came to their mouths, planning to ask the next time they stopped to rest.

However, this time, he didn't stop to rest. After five or six days of journey, he was compressed by non-stop sleep, and finally arrived in the capital on the fourth day.

It was afternoon when they arrived, and the bustling capital was still there, and it was not affected by the emperor's poisoning. However, along the way, they clearly felt that the atmosphere was not right.

But no matter what, the three of them were really relieved that they didn't see the whole city.

"It seems that we came back in time." You Ziqing felt the familiar smoke and fire, and leaned towards Zhao Zhen and said.

Zhao Zhen nodded: "Wait, I will enter the palace with the third child, and you go back to the palace to rest."

It stands to reason that the emperor's life is in danger, and You Ziqing, the daughter-in-law, should also be there, but Zhao Zhen is really worried about his health, so he decided to let him go back first.

Seeing that You Ziqing wanted to refuse, Zhao Zhen cut him off and said, "I will go to the palace to investigate the situation. You are outside the palace. If there are changes, you can deal with them in time."

Upon hearing this, You Ziqing nodded and accepted the arrangement: "Then be careful."

"Don't worry." Zhao Zhen shook You Ziqing's hand, and said: "Go back and have a good rest."

You Ziqing nodded: "Yes, I know."

He responded happily, but when he really returned to the palace, he couldn't calm down and rest at all. He had just washed off his dusty body and his hair was still dry, so You Ziqing called Hu Chang to inquire about the situation.

"I don't know much about the specific situation. Since the emperor was diagnosed with poisoning, the fourth prince ordered to block the news. If it weren't for the concubine Hui, our people might not be able to deliver the news so quickly." Hu Chang said.

"Fourth prince?" You Ziqing frowned: "Do you know who poisoned him, and what is the situation of the emperor now?"

"Yes, the fourth prince." Hu Chang thought for a while: "At that time, the emperor was vomiting blood and fell into a coma in the imperial study, and several princes happened to be there. After the imperial doctor diagnosed the poisoning, he said that it would cause turmoil in the court, so the fourth prince ordered to block the news. , as for who poisoned..."
