According to Jiang Zhao's order, Yao Shun secretly inquired about where Jiang Zhou was being held, but he didn't find out no matter what.

Shang Quan, the old man in the palace, has a way, not only knows what they want to do, but also knows where Jiang Zhou is being held under Yu Wenxu's nose.

The old man in the palace next to Concubine Xu is not simple.

If he said that he had no other purpose, Jiang Zhao would not believe it.

"Let him in."

"Slave Shang Quan, please greet the emperor, long live the emperor." As soon as Shang Quan came in, he fell to his knees.

Jiang Zhao remembered seeing him in the garden that time, and felt that this father-in-law was a little weird.

"Get up."

He looked at Shang Quan who was standing with his head bowed, his face full of cowering, and he rolled his eyelids lazily, "Eunuch Shang came to see me, why?"

Shang Quan just glanced at Yao Shun, but thought in his heart that the little emperor is still pretending not to know him.

He still bowed his head timidly, "The servant learned that Father-in-law Yao Shun was inquiring about Prince Jiang Zhou, and it happened that one of the godsons under the servant accidentally found out where Prince Jiang Zhou was locked up, and the servant came to report emperor."

Jiang Zhao looked at him with a half-smile, "That's really a coincidence."

Shang Quan lowered his head, pretending not to understand the meaning of his words, and nodded in agreement: "It is indeed a coincidence that what the emperor wanted to know happened to be known by the old slave."

"Eunuch Shang must know that this is Concubine Xu's wandering prince?"

Shang Quan nodded, "Yes, it is rumored outside that this is the prince, and there is also the ink jade left by Concubine Xu. The old slave has seen that piece of ink jade, so he must be unmistakable."

Jiang Zhao let out a sigh, "Why does Mr. Shang think that I will let him out? Isn't letting him out a threat to me? Maybe you are plotting to usurp the throne, so what should I do?"

Shang Quan never expected that Jiang Zhao would say that.

He dared to think about these words, how dare he accept them, he would die.

Cold sweat broke out, Shang Quan stared wildly.

"This, this, the emperor misunderstood the old slave, this is going to be beheaded, the old slave and the slave want to help the emperor, and absolutely have no other selfish intentions."

Looking at him, Jiang Zhao felt that everyone thought he was stupid.

The mind is so obvious, and it is delivered to the door.

Jiang Zhao nodded, and said in distress: "It's a pity that even if I know where Jiang Zhou is, I can't prove his identity. If I can't prove his identity, how can the courtiers be convinced? I don't know if Eunuch Shang knows Jiang Zhou's other proof. He told me .”

Shang Quan was overjoyed and almost blurted out, but recalling Jiang Zhao's suspicion just now, he swallowed the words back immediately.

"Your majesty, this old slave can ask. If the prince knows that you want to help him, he will definitely tell this old slave."

"It seems that Jiang Zhou trusts Eunuch Shang very much. In this way, Eunuch Shang will inquire about it, and then report it, and then I will let Jiang Zhou come out." Jiang Zhao said slowly.

Shang Quan was overjoyed, and said a few nice words to Jiang Zhao, but was afraid that he would miss the point by saying too much, so he bowed and left.

Yao Shun sent him out, then winked at the little eunuch on the other side, telling him to follow and watch.

Unexpectedly, not long after, the little eunuch hurried in, Jiang Zhao happened to see him, and asked, "Why are you so flustered?"

The little eunuch glanced at Yao Shun, and said nervously, "Report to the emperor that Eunuch Shang has been taken away. The slave is hiding aside, looking like a palace guard."

Yao Shun asked strangely: "Aren't the guards in the palace subordinate to the Prince Regent? Could it be that the prince took him away? Why?"

Jiang Zhao thought, what else can he do, of course he is not allowed to save people.

"I heard that an old slave with no eyesight came to the emperor to disturb the emperor's rest." The white figure turned around the screen and looked at Jiang Zhao with an ugly face. When he walked up to him, he gritted his teeth, "The emperor is not dead yet. Heart, why do you have to take care of Jiang Zhou?"

"There must be a conspiracy behind the Xu family, why is the emperor so stubborn."

"Shang Quan must have come here now to ask the emperor to let Jiang Zhou go. If the emperor does, he will let the tiger go back to the mountain."

Jiang Zhao, who has always been indifferent, was a little annoyed by his pressing step by step.

With a cold face, Jiang Zhao said: "Lord Yuwen is monitoring me, and nothing that happens here can escape the eyes of Lord Shoufu, so good, so good!"

"Why don't you be the emperor!"

Yu Wenxu had never seen such a cold face from him, adding to his words, he immediately said coldly: "Your Majesty! Do you know what you are talking about!"

He was so disappointed, if it wasn't for Jiang Zhao, he would have dealt with the Xu family long ago, so why wait until today, let alone, according to the original plan, Jiang Zhao was just a pawn.

Now, he is taking every step of the way and thinking of him completely, but in exchange for that he wants that seat.

"If I want this person..." You are long gone.

Yu Wenxu gritted his teeth, his chest rose and fell, but he couldn't say the following words.

Jiang Zhao's temper also came up, "Why, how did you treat me a long time ago?"

He leaned closer to Yu Wenxu, looked up at him, his eyebrows and eyes were extremely cold, but also extremely beautiful.

Yu Wenxu looked down at him, suppressing his anger.

He couldn't make him angry anymore, if he got sick, he didn't dare to think about the consequences.

Yao Shun was so nervous that he was afraid that the emperor would be angry, and he was also afraid that the chief assistant would be angry. He just wanted to ask someone to call Lord Jiang, because he was afraid that something might happen.

However, Mr. Shoufu's face changed instantly, and he even smiled.

Yao Shun felt his whole body tremble.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I'm not condescending, damn it." Yu Wenxu stretched out his hand to pull Jiang Zhao, his voice was unbelievably gentle, "I'm talking nonsense. I'm not spying on the Emperor, but just sent people to pay attention to Shang Quan's movements. I couldn't bear to come to you, so I took him back for interrogation."

Jiang Zhao waved his hand, but didn't wave him away vigorously, but just expressed his displeasure.

Yu Wenxu said again: "I will definitely interrogate them carefully so that the emperor can see their true colors."

Jiang Zhao snorted, "What is the purpose of Mr. Shoufu?"

Yu Wenxu's eyes dimmed suddenly, he pursed his lips and did not answer.

After a while: "The minister will leave first, and the emperor will rest earlier."

The two parted unhappily.

Looking at Yu Wenxu's angry appearance, Jiang Zhao felt refreshed.

Sure enough, it is more comfortable to make others angry than to be angry yourself.

After Yu Wenxu left, Yao Xi stepped forward to persuade him in a low voice: "Your Majesty, please don't be angry, you will be very angry."

Jiang Zhao just laughed: "Who am I angry for? What does it have to do with me?"

Yao Xi was stunned for a moment, and quickly recalled it under Yao Shun's prompt.

Indeed, what does Jiang Zhou's matter have to do with the emperor? That is another prince. After all, they are opposites. Why did the emperor save people?

He said he wasn't angry, but the way the emperor threw face at Mr. Shoufu just now was really unambiguous at all.

However, at night, Jiang Zhao slept uncomfortably all night. He woke up several times from the dream, almost out of breath, and even though the house was burning with earth dragons, he was shivering with cold, the kind of coldness in the bones. .

A face was so white that it could be seen clearly at night.

Yao Xi and Yao Shun were so frightened that they went to invite Jiang Fengjing.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the door was opened, there was a gust of cold wind outside, which made people almost unable to stand.

It's cooling down.

Yao Xi quickly hid back, Jiang Zhao waved his hand, "Ahem, cough, don't go, it's so late and so cold, I'm fine, pour me some hot water."

Unexpectedly, he propped himself up and got up, only to find that his legs were numb.

Jiang Zhao pursed his lips tightly, aware of something wrong with his body, even if he was sick and weak, his limbs would not be so stiff.

He remembered that Jiang Fengjing had told him that he still had one year left.

Before drinking the hot water, Jiang Zhao said slowly, "Take me to the bath."

When he said this, he was panting heavily, feeling like he couldn't breathe.

Yao Xi and the two hurriedly picked him up and sent him into the bath, Yao Xi went to order the water to be heated, and Yao Shun sent someone to inform Doctor Jiang.

How dare they listen to Jiang Zhao in this situation.

Jiang Zhao felt that he was wrapped in warmth after entering the bath, but he kept heating Yao Xi until Yao Xi felt a little hot when he touched the water.

"Your Majesty, isn't this water too hot? Your skin has been scalded red." Yao Xi watched his exposed shoulders turn red, and his whole body was as red as a boiled shrimp.

"No, it's just right now."

Yao Xi anxiously hoped that Yao Shun would quickly bring Doctor Jiang back. He looked at the emperor with his eyes closed. Although he looked fine on the surface, he felt that the emperor was very uncomfortable.

After finally waiting for Yao Shun to come back, he shook his head with a solemn expression.

"Master Jiang is not in the Imperial Hospital. The medical attendant on duty has left the palace because of an urgent matter. I'm afraid he won't be returning to the palace tonight."

In the middle of the night, the palace gate will not open.

"But this can't let the emperor soak in it until morning." Yao Xi said anxiously.

"I let people wait, Master Jiang will let him come as soon as he comes back."

Fortunately, after soaking for an hour, Jiang Zhao felt his whole body go limp and his fingers wrinkled, so he got up.

Early the next morning, Jiang Fengjing entered the palace as soon as the palace gate opened, and rushed back to the Yong'an Palace after returning to the Imperial Hospital.

Just as Jiang Zhao woke up, he saw the dusty Jiang Fengjing, and immediately smiled, "Master Jiang, what's wrong, he looks in a hurry."

Jiang Fengjing calmed down and smiled, "I heard that the emperor was unwell last night, but I was not in the palace, so I was a little worried about the emperor's situation."

Jiang Zhao looked down at Jiang Fengjing and felt his pulse, "Master Jiang, can you tell me how I am now?"

Jiang Fengjing paused, looked up and said as usual: "The emperor's body is naturally the same as usual, and the medicine is not bad recently, a little better. I have discussed with the regent and the chief assistant, and tomorrow I will take the emperor to the hot spring palace. , the hot springs there are very beneficial to the emperor's health."

Jiang Zhao groaned, and said again: "Where did Mr. Jiang come back to the palace? I seem to smell a trace of rust."

Jiang Fengjing suddenly shouted in his heart that he was careless, and the bloody smell on his body hadn't had time to deal with it, so he should change his clothes and come back.

Thinking of Yu Wenxu saying that the emperor still wanted to protect Jiang Zhou, Jiang Fengjing only hesitated for a moment, and then said: "The minister came from Lord Shoufu's mansion, Lord Shoufu personally interrogated Shang Quan yesterday, but Shang Quan kept his mouth tight. It is said that everything is his conspiracy and has nothing to do with Jiang Zhou, but it is almost confirmed that they are indeed coveting the throne."

"The emperor must never trust Jiang Zhou again."

Jiang Zhao hummed lightly, and when Jiang Fengjing finished his pulse diagnosis, he suddenly asked: "Master Jiang, can you tell me the truth, how long do I have?"

Jiang Fengjing was packing his things with his head down. Hearing this, his hands paused. When he looked carefully, he was trembling slightly.

His heart was full of embarrassment, last night he went to Baixiao Pavilion again, Jiang Hongxiao finally told him under his step-by-step questioning that his father was not dead at all, he had been in the dark all these years, and Jiang Zhao's poison, It was Jiang's father when he was young.

How he said it was poisoned by his father.

The bitterness in his heart was suppressed by him, and he forced a smile, "Why would the emperor ask such a question?"

"Master Jiang, aren't you going to tell me?" Jiang Zhao covered his lips to hold back a muffled groan, "I know my body, and if I don't tell you, it doesn't mean I don't have pain. The weakness of limbs is not something I had before. "

Jiang Zhao looked at Jiang Fengjing seriously, "No matter what the result is, I can accept it, but I don't want to be ignorant of my body, even if I only have a few days to live, I can't be ignorant."

"Your Majesty." Jiang Fengjing struggled, and finally sighed after a while, "You are poisoned."

As a doctor, Jiang Fengjing knows very clearly how important life is to a person.

He was right that he had a right to know the truth about himself.

However, Jiang Zhao was not surprised at all, and even asked very calmly: "How long do I have?"

"I..." Jiang Fengjing said with difficulty, "I don't know."

Jiang Zhao smiled, "Even Mr. Jiang doesn't know about it. This poison seems to be very tricky."

Jiang Fengjing looked at him silently, he wanted to say that the emperor stopped laughing, but Jiang Zhao's expression was not deliberately made, he was still as fearless as when he was asked this question before.

Jiang Fengjing's heart was clenched into a ball, he had never felt this way, every breath was painful.

It turned out that this is sad.

His nails dug deeply into the palm of his hand, "As long as the minister is here, the emperor will be here for a day."

But Jiang Zhao shook his head and said, "Master Jiang doesn't have to be like this. It's the destiny, manpower is irresistible. Maybe this is my destiny."

"emperor!"

Jiang Zhao lowered his eyes, showing a tired look, "Master Jiang, go and do some work, I'm tired and want to rest for a while."
