The best ring

If there is no Royal Forest Army following, then they are not here to arrest themselves.

Zhao Lun was greatly relieved.

Soon, the father-in-law from the palace was brought to Zhao Lun.

"Did Father ask you to come?" Zhao Lun asked.

"Your Majesty, he has passed away!" The father-in-law said, "The Za family is here to inform His Highness to enter the palace."

"What? My father died?" Upon hearing the news, Zhao Lun was no less shocked than Zhao Ke.

Obviously, Zhao Lun did not expect that what he was waiting for was not the news that his father had come to arrest him, but the news that his father had died.

"Yes." The father-in-law said, "Your Highness, please enter the palace quickly."

"good!"

If the old emperor was still there, Zhao Lun might still hesitate. After all, if what he was doing was known to the old emperor, he might be beheaded, so he would feel guilty when he saw the old emperor.

But now that the old emperor is dead, he is naturally alive.

However, before entering the palace, he still had something to ask clearly.

"Before the emperor passed away, did he leave an imperial edict on who should inherit the throne?" Zhao Lun asked.

This issue is what Zhao Lun is most concerned about.

It can be said that the sudden death of the old emperor disrupted Zhao Lun's plan.

Originally, Zhao Lun wanted to steal the jade seal and fabricate an imperial edict so that when the old emperor died, he could take advantage of the situation and take advantage of the situation.

But now, the jade seal has not been stolen, but the old emperor has passed away.

If the old emperor has not confirmed the heir to the throne, that's okay. If he has already been designated, it will be troublesome.

"I don't know." The eunuch shook his head and said, "The Zajia family is only responsible for informing His Highness that you are entering the palace. As for other things, we don't know."

Zhao Lun frowned slightly and could only say: "Okay, I will enter the palace right now."

No matter what, he had to go into the palace and have a look. What if the old emperor decided to let him inherit the throne?

Although this possibility is very small, it is not impossible.

Even if other princes succeed to the throne, they will not take action against him immediately. He still has time to think of ways to crack it.

Even before the end of the matter, Zhao Lun was still unwilling to give up.

However, just when Zhao Lun was about to leave, a servant stopped him.

"What's wrong?" Zhao Lun said displeased.

"Your Highness, someone wants to see you." The servant said softly.

"who?"

"Mr. Liu!"

"Which Doctor Liu?"

"That's the doctor Liu who treated His Majesty."

"What is he looking for me for?" Zhao Lun frowned.

Zhao Lun also knew about Imperial Physician Liu. It could be said that the reason why the old emperor had been able to persevere and survive one danger after another over the years was largely due to Imperial Physician Liu.

Although Imperial Physician Liu failed to cure the old emperor, he successfully bought the old emperor more time. Without Imperial Physician Liu, the old emperor would have died long ago and would not have persisted until now.

If Dr. Liu had come to visit him before, Zhao Lun would have been very happy. He was an important figure in the hospital and a popular figure around the old emperor. Getting to know him by yourself would have only advantages and no disadvantages.

But things are different now. Now that the old emperor has passed away, this Imperial Physician Liu has no value in getting to know him. Zhao Lun now wants to go into the palace to see the situation, and does not want to waste time on this Imperial Physician Liu.

Moreover, he didn't know why Dr. Liu was looking for him.

"He didn't say." The servant glanced at the eunuch not far away and whispered: "He said that he came out of the palace secretly and had something very important to see you, the third prince. Moreover, this matter Don’t let others know.”

Zhao Lun's frown deepened, and he instinctively felt that Doctor Liu's visit this time might not be simple.

Thinking of this, he said to the eunuch: "You go back to the palace first, I will go there later."

"Yes, Your Highness."

After the eunuch left, Zhao Lun said to the servant: "Bring Dr. Liu into my study."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Not long after, Zhao Lun saw the very well-covered Doctor Liu in the study.

"Mr. Liu, what's the matter with you being so anxious to see me?" Zhao Lun said in a calm tone: "You should know that my father has passed away and I have to go to the palace now. I don't have much time to delay."

"I know." Doctor Liu said, "I'm here to give a gift to His Highness, and I won't delay His Highness for long."

"Giving a gift?" Zhao Lun asked doubtfully: "What gift? Doctor Liu, why did you give me a gift? Are you worried that you will be punished for not curing your father, and you want me to help you? If so, I I think it’s unnecessary. Firstly, everyone knows about my father’s physical condition. It’s normal if you can’t cure it. Secondly, I’m a bit insecure now. I don’t know what to do when someone else ascends the throne and becomes emperor. , and have no ability to help you.”

"Why can't it be you, Your Highness, who ascends the throne and proclaims himself emperor?" Doctor Liu's eyes flashed with an inexplicable light.

However, Zhao Lun felt that Dr. Liu was trying to wash him away, and said angrily: "Do you think I don't want to? But my father doesn't like me at all! He will never let me inherit the throne. It's possible for the boss. It’s possible for two, but it’s just me, it’s impossible!”

If it were not for his unwillingness, Zhao Lun would not even be willing to enter the palace. To him, it was just humiliation. He only had hatred for the old emperor in his heart. Facing the old emperor's death, he did not feel the slightest sadness.

Liu Taiyi smiled slightly, took out something from his bosom, and said, "That may not be the case!"

Zhao Lun was stunned when he saw what Liu Taiyi was holding.

Because, what Liu Taiyi took out was nothing else but an imperial edict!

"This is..." Zhao Lun pointed at the imperial edict and asked in surprise.

"This is an imperial edict!"

"Of course I know it's an imperial edict!" Zhao Lun said, "I mean, what's written in it?"

"What does your highness hope it's written in it?" Liu Taiyi said with a slight smile.

Zhao Lun felt his heartbeat speeding up, and his breathing became a little faster. He said with a little nervousness and excitement, "I hope it's an imperial edict designating me as the next emperor!"

This is what Zhao Lun wanted most at the moment.

Liu Taiyi's smile became brighter, and he looked at Zhao Lun and said, "Congratulations, your highness, you guessed it right!"

Guessed it right? !

Liu Taiyi's words made Zhao Lun a little dazed, and he even suspected that he was dreaming.

Doesn't his father dislike him?

How could he let me be his successor?

Thinking of this, Zhao Lun sobered up a little, but looking at the situation of Doctor Liu, it didn't seem like he was lying, and Zhao Lun was still very excited.

"Are you sure this is the imperial edict for me to ascend the throne?" Zhao Lun looked at Doctor Liu and asked.

The imperial edict was in front of him, but Zhao Lun didn't dare to take it, fearing that he would be disappointed after reading the content.
