"Brother, I won't let you die." Ji Ting stood up, straightened his body with his back facing him, and said in a hoarse voice: "I will definitely find a way to save you before the antidote runs out."

He Yang raised the corners of his lips lightly, and jokingly said, "You are not afraid of going against your father's will, in case I..."

"Brother, you have to be clean." Ji Ting turned around, with firm eyes, and interrupted him: "I was entrusted by my father, I must not just sit and watch you go astray, so I will come to the person you want to kill Do it for you, as long as I live in this world, I can't let you..."

He Yang didn't catch the second half of the sentence, because Ji Ting tapped his Sleeping Point with lightning speed, and the consciousness of this body gradually disappeared.

He is like a ghost floating in the dark, unable to perceive Ji Ting's next actions, but the system's voice can still be clearly transmitted to his consciousness.

[Don't worry, when Ji Xiao wakes up, you will naturally be able to return to this body. 】

He Yang thought for a moment, then asked: "Do you think Ji Ting really has a way to cure Ji Xiao's poison?"

[Assessed based on the medical level of this world, Ji Ting's chances of finding the antidote are extremely low, and the medicine left by General Ji is also non-renewable. 】

He Yang: "So Ji Xiao is doomed to die?"

[Theoretically, this is the case, but your appearance is his turning point. As long as the progress bar reaches [-]% before the task is completed, the system will present a bottle of elixir that can cure all poisons. 】

He Yang: "I have nothing to do with him, why should I try my best to save him?"

[Because saving him is equivalent to saving yourself, uh... I mean, you can also suffer less during the mission. 】

He Yang lowered his eyes and chuckled. He didn't intend to do nothing but test the loopholes in the system. His intuition told him that these mission worlds had something to do with him. Now it seems that there are quite a lot of secrets hidden in it.

"During Ji Xiao's coma, I need to know every move of the outside world." He Yang said.

[Due to technical reasons, only part of the key information can be converted into data and transmitted to the system database. If there are any deficiencies, please forgive me, and the data conversion takes time and may be delayed. 】

As soon as the system finished speaking, He Yang saw the scene where Ji Ting knocked him out, and made a silent note in his heart.

Immediately afterwards, Ji Ting poured out another antidote from the silver vial, and fed it to him with tea. After dealing with all this, Ji Ting stood by the bed and stared for a long time, his brows were full of sorrow.

The little emperor waited for a long while but no one inside came out, he paced back and forth anxiously, his face became calm when he heard the noise, with one hand behind his back, put on the airs of an emperor, and asked: "How is he?"

Ji Ting looked a little frustrated, and said in silence for a while: "It's all right."

Seeing his expression, the little emperor obviously didn't believe him, so he squeezed past him, and seeing He Yang lying on the bed unconsciously, he frowned and said, "You still owe me an explanation for this matter."

"My brother...he should be able to wake up tomorrow." Ji Ting said in a whisper.

The little emperor's eyes froze, and his voice dropped several degrees: "Do you think I won't be able to find out if you don't tell me?"

"The emperor is wise, and I dare not lie." Ji Ting's attitude was respectful, but he refused to say a single word: "The emperor only needs to know that the Ji family has been sincere for generations, and will never do anything foolish and rebellious."

"Heh." The little emperor sneered, glanced at He Yang on the bed, and said inexplicably, "Ji Sizheng, didn't you say that you have found evidence to prove Ji Xiao's innocence."

"That's right, I have already asked the jailer who was in charge of guarding the prison that day in the Ministry of Criminal Justice. According to his confession, my brother did not act aggressively when interrogating Han Ye, and before leaving, he specifically ordered Han Ye to be transferred to a single cell to prevent him from interrogating Han Ye." Get silenced."

"These are just one-sided words." The little emperor was unmoved, and asked in a cold voice: "How can you prove that Ji Xiao is not trying to cover his ears and steal the bell, so that he can commit murder?"

"He went to the palace immediately after he left the Ministry of Punishment." Ji Ting frowned, and explained logically: "The time the emperor saw him was far behind the time he left the Ministry of Punishment, and there was no time to go back and forth to kill people."

The little emperor retorted: "General Ji is highly skilled in martial arts, and his lightness kung fu is even more proficient, so this cannot clear his suspicion at all."

"I also invited Wu for an autopsy, and found that Han Ye was not killed by one blow, but was slowly tortured to death." Ji Ting's face was gloomy, and his voice was a little hoarse: "And the week before my brother had the attack, he couldn't use force at all. , and it is even more impossible to sneak into the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs quietly."

The little emperor was stunned, his expression a little complicated, and after a while, he looked at Ji Ting vigilantly: "In short, until you find out the real culprit who killed Han Ye, I will not let him go."

"Your Majesty, please think again, there is no impenetrable wall in the world." Ji Ting hinted with a pun.

It was rare for He Yang to get out of his body and watch what happened in front of him from the sidelines. If he had a body at this moment, the expression on his face would probably be exactly the same as that of the little emperor.

Originally thought that the real culprit in this case was very likely to be the man behind the frame of Ji Xiao six years ago, but seeing Ji Ting's various performances at this moment, a terrible thought suddenly appeared in his heart.

It was Ji Ting who was able to sneak into the heavily guarded criminal prison alone after he left, and happened to appear in the palace when the news of Han Ye's sudden death came out.

He Yang guessed at the very beginning that Ji Ting's seemingly reckless kidnapping of thirteen officials into the imperial city might have had a target behind him. Now it seems that he himself is the one who is most likely to kill Han Ye.

After he left the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, he quietly killed Han Ye, and when all the suspicions were drawn to him, he came to the emperor to accept the task of investigating the case.He Yang had no doubts that if there hadn't been an accident in the middle, Ji Ting would have pulled him out of the whole incident completely, and smoothly brought the charge of killing Han Ye to his accomplices.

It seems that Ji Ting has been in the imperial city for so many years, and he is not doing nothing. On the surface, he avoids the edge temporarily, but actually investigates the events of the year clearly, so even if Han Ye is dead, this clue is still not interrupted. When he wakes up, he will Don't look far away.

【You don't know Ji Ting yet?His level of pretending to be stupid is top-notch. When it comes to looking far away, your key props are about to fall into dust. 】

"..."

The next morning, the atmosphere was a little more tense than usual.

The reason was that a minister came forward, and the soldiers guarding outside the pass seemed to have heard the wind in the imperial city, and they were ready to move.

The 10,000+ army is not a joke, even if it is just a turmoil, so many people suggested that the punishment of He Yang be postponed to stabilize the morale of the army.

Liu Yun was one of them who drifted with the tide, and he guessed that the purpose of He Yang asking him to pass on the news was also for this purpose, but what he couldn't understand was that he had just sent out the piece of fabric yesterday, even if he rushed the whip, it would take two days and two days. Only then can they arrive at night, so who is behind the manipulation of Chaozhong's actions?

After Ji Ting was promoted, he also had a place at the bottom of the court, but he didn't agree at the moment, and quietly pretended to be dead.

The little emperor knew it well, Ji Ting failed to convince him yesterday, so he used the army outside the customs to put pressure on him, and said that he was sincere and that power trumped everything when necessary.

He was furious, but he couldn't show it, and he refused to let go of the advice of the courtiers.

Taifu Shen's faction has been hostile to Ji Xiao for a long time, so naturally he doesn't want him to come out easily and quarrel with other people in the court hall.

The little emperor hadn't slept well for several days in a row. He often opened his eyes before dawn, staring at the curtain above his head in a daze. At this moment, the loud noise flooded into his ears. He pressed his temples, and his head hurt like it was about to split. .

The little eunuch standing beside him noticed something was wrong, and asked softly, "Your Majesty, why don't you come and see the imperial physician Xuan, and see how pale your face is."

The little emperor raised his head, glanced at the ministers, and said in a tired voice: "The officers and men outside the pass are also the people of our dynasty. Their wives and children have lived here for generations. Is it possible that they can still find out the big things? I am a little tired." Alright, come here today."

There was a lot of discussion for a while, obviously this excuse was not enough to stop Youyou's mouth. Before the little emperor left, he vaguely heard a sentence: Sooner or later, the emperor will not be able to bear it...

He turned his head, but he couldn't tell where the voice came from. Instead, he happened to meet Ji Ting's half-smiling eyes, who bowed from afar, looking as if he was sure of winning.

The holy driver walked all the way to the bedroom, the little emperor slowly opened his eyes, his dark pupils were covered with bloodshot eyes, and he looked extremely haggard.

But there is nothing in the whole palace that can make him feel at ease, and there is a wave of unrest and another wave of unrest.

The queen mother waited at the door one step ahead, and he couldn't turn a blind eye. After a lot of red tape, the two entered the bedroom together.

"The Ai family doesn't understand the affairs of the previous dynasty, so they can't share the worries of the emperor, but the matter of accepting the empress must be settled as soon as possible, so that the Ministry of Rites can make preparations."

The Empress Dowager smiled brightly and explained her intentions. She took a scroll from the palace servants and handed it to the little emperor: "This is the marriage decree prepared by the Ai family. The emperor has a look. If there is no objection, the wedding date should be chosen as soon as possible." Good day and auspicious day."

The little emperor frowned, staring at the Yizhi for a long time but did not answer it. The little eunuch who followed him coughed lightly as a reminder before he took it in his hand and glanced at it casually.

It's all talk, nothing to look at.

The Empress Dowager observed his expression, and said impatiently: "Qin Tianjian has already checked, and three days later will be a good day, suitable for marriage."

The following three words hit the little emperor's heart heavily, and He Yang's decisive tone suddenly flashed in his mind inexplicably.

I want to marry you.

That big red wedding dress must look really good on you.

……

"Your Majesty, what do you think of the grand wedding of the Empress and Empress on the fifth day of August in three days' time?" The Empress Dowager said with a smile on her face.

"Very good." The little emperor said these two words mechanically, his eyes filled with dead silence.

Three days later, he should wake up too.
