Apart from the crazy fourth prince, the only one left under the emperor was Yan Mu, and he could only be named the prince. But at this juncture, there was something intriguing.
After receiving the order, Liu Yunxiang asked Feng Zheng to guard the palace gate while Xu Yanmu would send someone to deliver the message.
When it got dark, Yan Mu didn't come back, but Feng Zheng brought Xin'er back.
"His Highness said that he is in the palace tonight and will not return home. Please don't worry about anything. He can handle it."
Liu Yunxiang's thoughts changed, "What else happens?"
Feng Zheng thought for a while and said: "I met many people from the minister's residence at the palace gate who were also waiting there. Some people said they would not go back to the palace tonight, but I don't know what is going on inside."
Liu Yunxiang took a deep breath, "Then something big must have happened."
But since Yan Mu said he could handle it, Liu Yunxiang rested first. After working hard these days, she had to have a good rest just for the sake of her unborn child.
For three days in a row, Yan Mu did not return home. Feng Zheng waited at the palace gate every day, and the letters he brought back told her not to worry.
"Are those ministers still there?"
"I lifted some out."
Remember URL
"Carry it out?"
"She said she fainted from hunger, but when asked what happened, she couldn't tell her a word."
After three days of rest, Liu Yunxiang recovered. After briefly dressing up, she took Zijin and Feng Zheng into the palace.
Outside the study room, there were more than ten ministers sitting in the courtyard. It was summer and they were exposed to the sun. When she just entered the door, one of the ministers happened to faint.
The guards next to him were well-trained and rushed forward to carry the person out. Others still didn't move, even if some could barely hold on, their bodies were swaying, but they still gritted their teeth and persisted.
There was water and food in front of them, but no one took a sip or touched a mouth.
The door to the upper study room was closed, and there were guards guarding the outside. At this time the door opened and Shangguan Xu came out.
"My lords, it's been three days. You can't get a drop of water, and neither can the prince. You can't stand it anymore, and the prince can't stand it either. My lords, please go back. This matter cannot be solved in a day or two. You Why bother forcing His Highness like this?" Shangguan Xu said earnestly.
The leader was cabinet scholar Wu Min, who was in his fifties and wore airtight court clothes. Although his clothes were soaked with sweat, he sat upright, with a resolute face and a very literary character.
"Your Highness, please take care of yourself. It's useless for us to wait and can only share your worries for Your Highness."
"You are not sharing your worries, you are putting His Highness on the fire to roast!"
"Shangguan Governor made a strong statement. We are clearly the ones being roasted on the fire."
As soon as Wu Min finished speaking, someone inside shouted: "Oh no, His Highness has fainted. Go find the doctor quickly!"
Shangguan Xu ran back in a hurry, stopped at the door, turned around and shouted to the ministers: "Ministers, the emperor has fallen ill and is now the prince. If you force him out, then our Da Rong will be in trouble." It’s really over!”
After saying that, Shangguan Xu hurriedly ran in.
When Liu Yunxiang heard this, he was naturally anxious and hurried inside. The person guarding outside the study room was Shangguan Xu's man. When he saw it was her, he opened the door and let her in.
Liu Yunxiang ran into the back room in a hurry, only to see Yan Mu leaning on the Arhat bed and eating melon seeds. Next to it were herbal tea and iced fruits. It was so comfortable, so comfortable, so cozy.
Seeing Liu Yunxiang come in, Yan Mu exclaimed, "Why are you here?"
Liu Yunxiang's heart suddenly dropped to the ground. She couldn't help but glare at Yan Mu, "I'm not worried about you."
"Didn't I send a message to you not to worry?"
"I'm afraid you'll report good news but not bad news."
"I'm not that kind of person."
Seeing that Liu Yunxiang was getting angry, Yan Mu hurriedly stood up and pulled her over, letting her lean on the Arhat bed. He picked up an iced plum and was about to put it in Liu Yunxiang's mouth. He remembered that she was pregnant and couldn't eat anything too cold, so he held it in his arms. Keep warm.
He gave it to Liu Yunxiang only after it was no longer so cold.
"The tribute is really sweet, try it."
Liu Yunxiang took a bite. It was sweet but also sour, but it was just right for her taste. As she ate, Yan Mu wiped her mouth. When she finished, he stretched out his hand to catch the core, and then gave the other one to her warmly.
"Your Highness, the performance we just performed was still effective. Two people left." Shangguan Xu rolled his eyes.
Yan Mu gritted his teeth, "Only two left?"
"yes."
"These civil servants are really difficult to deal with!"
Liu Yunxiang thought that the ministers he saw when he entered the hospital just now were really civil servants.
"What happened?" she asked.
Yan Mu didn't want her to worry, but not saying anything would only make her more worried, so he shrugged and said, "It's not a big deal. On the day you returned to Beijing, news came from Nanbian Prefecture that the Southern Jin Dynasty suddenly invaded our Ling'an At the pass, after a fierce battle, the Ling'an army was defeated and abandoned the pass and fled. The Southern Jin Dynasty went north and occupied Ling'an City."
When Liu Yunxiang heard this, he couldn't help but widen his eyes. Thinking back to the previous life, it was actually a year after the Southern Jin Dynasty and the Northern Expedition.
In the last life, the Southern Jin Dynasty took advantage of the rebellion in Da Rong Nanzhou to invade and invaded all the way to the Yangtze River. As long as they crossed the river, they could go straight to Shengjing. At that time, the Three Kingdoms only formed an alliance. Although they later curbed the invasion of the Southern Jin Dynasty, they also separated more than a dozen cities south of the Yangtze River.
Since then, Dayong was divided, the court suffered heavy losses, and the people were displaced. Even when she died, she was still in a state of despair. At that time, she could already see the strength of Da Rong. In a few years, it would be cannibalized by the Southern Jin, Xiyue and Northern Jin.
The reason why it was a year late is that the Nanzhou riots did not drag the entire Da Rong into the war. Zhenbei and Zhenxi still retained their combat effectiveness, so the Southern Jin Dynasty did not dare to invade rashly.
The three countries wanted to form an alliance. While he showed his goodwill to the other two countries and disrupted the alliance plan, he also invaded Da Rong and made them confused.
"The alliance of the Three Kingdoms has now become a moon in the mirror, and the Southern Jin Dynasty invaded and occupied a city at this time, which really shocked and panicked everyone in the court. The civil servants asked the court to take the toughest attitude and immediately send troops to regain Ling'an City and Ling'an However, none of the generals showed up, and all of them took sick leave." Yan Mu said speechlessly.
Liu Yunxiang frowned, "There's going to be a war soon, and you still say it's not a big deal."
"It's not a big deal at all. When I transfer the Zhenbei Army back to Zhenbei, our family of four will also go back. No matter what, we don't care whether or how we fight this battle!" Yan Mu Hehe said with a smile.
Liu Yunxiang's eyes widened, "You, is this your plan?"
"Otherwise, the emperor made me the prince now, pretended to be sick, and pushed me to the forefront. Lu Changan and Qin Fei usually fought for this position, but they were also sick at this time. Why can't I be sick? I want to You are terminally ill, so go back to Zhenbei to recuperate!" Yan Mu said angrily.
"Your Highness, Mr. Xu, the censor of Zuodu of the Inspectorate, has fainted."
Yan Mu snorted, "You asked for it!"
"He didn't faint from hunger, but lost too much blood."
"oh?"
Shangguan Xu sighed and handed over a stack of blood books.
