After I died, the sickly prince turned black

The emperor was seriously ill and had a stroke, so state affairs fell on Zhao Zhen's head, and the investigation of the poisoning case was handed over to Zhao Yan.

But even so, Zhao Zhen was busier than before.Almost rooted in the palace, even You Ziqing rarely sees him every day.

At the beginning, Xiao Qiao's family tried to unite with the Chen family to put pressure on Zhao Zhen, but Zhao Zhen suppressed them all.

After all, murdering the emperor is a serious crime, and without giving these few chances to react, they sent heavy troops to guard and control them.

While Concubine Chen Gui was taken into custody, Concubine Xiao Shu was also placed under house arrest.

Although these companies were controlled and detained, they should not be taken lightly.

The Chen family is alright, the rising upstarts don't have much strength, but Xiao Qiao's family is different, the century-old nobles have a deep foundation, and Yu Chaozhong has a strength that cannot be underestimated.

But for the stability of the court, it cannot be done in one pot.

So these people gathered together rather unscrupulously, and tried to make trouble for Zhao Zhen several times in succession, but they stopped.

"Although the Chen family is a newcomer and their roots are not deep, but with the Twelve Princes around, they will definitely not give up so easily."

Just after going through a lot of cloud and rain, You Ziqing was lying in Zhao Zhen's arms, feeling lazy all over, but his mind was not idle at all.

"As for the fourth prince, he's a little too quiet. Everything abnormal is a monster. Your Highness needs to be more careful, but it's best to solve it as soon as possible. If you leave it for too long, accidents will easily happen."

Zhao Zhen caressed You Ziqing's silky back, his eyes were closed and he didn't know if he was listening.

You Ziqing didn't wait for a long while for a response, she raised her head to look at him, but was kissed deeply and lingeringly by her chin.

"Ziqing, sit in my arms." Zhao Zhen said suddenly.

You Ziqing raised his eyebrows: "It's business, what do you want to do?"

"Sit up first." Zhao Zhen squeezed You Ziqing's waist suggestively: "Let's discuss together."

"What kind of discussions do you need to sit in your arms? How do you sit?" You Ziqing raised his eyebrows, but did not move: "Splitting?"

"Not at all." Zhao Zhen's eyes were burning: "My husband will make you a cow and a horse, but they are just cows and horses that don't like to move. Whether you can make the cows and horses move depends on your riding skills."

You Ziqing: "..."

I was speechless.

You Ziqing turned over and rolled inside, turned his back to Zhao Zhen and stopped talking to him.

Zhao Zhen stretched out his claws and knocked them off with a snap.

"Sleep!" You Ziqing gritted his teeth.

Zhao Zhen gave a low laugh, but he didn't intend to let him go like this. He put his arms around You Ziqing's waist and hugged him tightly, so that no one could escape.

"It's okay." Zhao Zhen leaned against You Ziqing's ear, "That's fine too."

You Ziqing was stunned when he heard the words, and then his eyes widened in shock.

"Zhao Zhen, you..."

Before she could finish speaking, You Ziqing let out a muffled groan, her red face clenched her lower lip...

When he woke up in the morning, Zhao Zhen had already entered the palace.

"Eunuch Hu." You Ziqing saw Hu Chang coming in with the washing utensils, got up and asked, "When did Your Highness leave?"

"Leave before dawn." When it comes to this, Hu Chang feels distressed: "His Royal Highness has been really busy recently. I heard that the triumphant soldiers will arrive today. His Highness will not only receive an audience, but also reward them for their merits. busy."

You Ziqing was happy that the army had finally returned, but felt sorry for Zhao Zhen: "I don't know when this will be the end."

Hu Chang thought in his heart that when he became the emperor, he would only be so busy, but after looking at You Ziqing, he didn't say anything after all.

You Ziqing felt uncomfortable all over, and did not go to the palace to look for Zhao Zhen immediately after getting up, but rested at home for half a day before going to the palace.

When You Ziqing arrived at Qinzheng Palace, Zhao Zhen had just received several generals headed by Meng Zhaoyong.

When they met each other, it was rare that they didn't look coldly at You Ziqing.

On the contrary, everyone was quite enthusiastic, especially Meng Zhaoyong, who stopped him directly after the ceremony: "There will be a martial arts competition at the celebration banquet later, and then I will ask Princess Ning to give me some advice."

After finishing speaking, not giving You Ziqing a chance to refuse, she cupped her fists and turned to leave.

The remaining generals didn't intend to drag You Ziqing into a martial arts competition, but they also smiled kindly and left with fists in their hands.

You Ziqing watched them off, shook his head amusedly for a while, and then entered the gate of Qinzheng Hall.

Coincidentally, both Zhao Yan and You Zimo were there.

"Second brother!" You Ziqing was very happy to see You Zimo, hurried over, and beat You Zimo's shoulder with his fist.

You Zimo also looked at You Ziqing: "The lost flesh can be regarded as regained."

After the two brothers finished talking about the past, they turned to Zhao Zhen after the long case.

Zhao Zhen beckoned You Ziqing to go over, and after You Ziqing sat down next to him, he began to issue the order to evict the guest.

"Second brother has worked hard all the way, so let's go back and take a rest first. The celebration banquet is scheduled for the day after tomorrow, so that everyone can just recharge their spirits."

After marching for so long, You Zimo was really tired, so he was not polite when he heard the words, he waved his fists and left.

Zhao Yan was left standing there with a serious face.

You Ziqing glanced at the two of them: "What's the matter? But what happened to the Fourth Prince?"

"That's not true." Zhao Zhen shook his head: "It's fine with Concubine Chen, but it's not easy with Fourth Brother."

You Ziqing understood what the two of them were embarrassing as soon as he heard it, and immediately hooked the corners of his mouth: "What's so embarrassing? Just ask the emperor directly?"

"But father, he..."

"The emperor is just paralyzed by a stroke and can't speak, it's not that he can't distinguish right from wrong and can't think."

You Ziqing smiled and picked up the book casually.

"Just write it to him, nod if you agree, shake your head if you don't agree, one is the prince and the other is the favorite concubine, how to deal with it, let the emperor decide for himself."

"Can it still be like this?" Zhao Yan was dumbfounded.

"Why not?" You Ziqing raised an eyebrow and asked back.

Zhao Yan subconsciously looked at Zhao Zhen.

Zhao Zhen said while criticizing the papers: "Just do as your brother Qing said."

"Yes." Zhao Yan replied, "Then I'll go first."

As soon as Zhao Yan left, Zhao Zhen put down his hair and pulled You Ziqing into his arms: "How is it? Are you uncomfortable?"

"It's okay." You Ziqing pretended to be something in his heart, and answered casually, and after a while: "It's a bit uncomfortable."

Zhao Zhen laughed and let go of You Ziqing.

"By the way, I didn't ask you before." You Ziqing sat up straight, "You took Concubine Chen and the Fourth Prince into custody. Could it be that the poisoning was the result of collusion between the two parties?"

You Ziqing remembered that Zhao Zhen did say something about colluding with the concubine at the time.

"That's true." Zhao Zhen nodded and said: "Not only these two, but also Concubine Yunde's mother and son, but they couldn't use it, and instead, Concubine Chen Gui and the fourth brother jointly calculated it."

This You Ziqing was not surprised, after all, it was deduced before.

What he was curious about was how Chen Guifei and Xiao Xian's mother and son used each other and worked together, but in the end they both fell into trouble.

Since both sides are planted, then this oriole...

You Ziqing thought of someone.

Concubine Yang!

Or to be more precise... Concubine Li Shu.
