It's night, in Hulong Temple.

The eighth prince just left the prince's room and returned to his guest room.

Yu Hai walked in, bowed to the Eighth Prince first, then took out a letter from his arms and handed it to the Eighth Prince with both hands.

"Your Highness, there is news in the letter."

The Eighth Prince put down the book in his hand, reached out to take the letter, and opened it to read.

Yu Hai saw that the Eighth Prince's expression suddenly changed, and asked with concern: "Your Highness, what happened in the palace?"

"Tenth brother is sick." The eighth prince said with a worried look on his face.

When Yu Hai heard this, he immediately showed a worried look on his face: "The tenth prince is sick, is it serious?"

"I caught the wind and cold, but I'm fine for the time being." The Eighth Prince said this, but the worried look on his face did not diminish.

"That's good." After Yu Hai finished speaking, seeing that the Eighth Prince's face was still heavy, he quickly comforted him, "Your Highness, His Highness the Tenth Prince just suffered from the cold, you don't need to worry too much."

"You forgot, my tenth brother also suffered from cold a few months ago." The eighth prince was also worried that Zhao Yao would be the same this time as last time.

Hearing what the Eighth Prince said, Yu Hai remembered that His Highness Tenth almost died of illness a few months ago.

"Your Highness, His Majesty the Tenth Highness has his own destiny, and nothing will happen to him this time."

"I was careless." The eighth prince picked up the letter in his hand and burned it on the candle.

"Your Highness, what does His Highness' illness have to do with you? It's not you who made His Highness sick."

The Eighth Prince did not answer Yu Hai's question, but said something else.

"We have to find a way to recuperate our tenth brother first."

"Your Highness, the imperial physician in the palace will nurse His Highness back to health."

The eighth prince raised his lips and sneered: "If those quack doctors in the palace could take good care of the tenth brother's body, the tenth brother would not be sick again today."

"Your Highness, what do you mean?"

The Eighth Prince narrowed his eyes and thought about something, then told Yu Hai: "Let someone go find out if there is any miracle doctor. If there is any, bring them back."

"Yes, Your Highness." Yu Hai sighed in his heart, His Highness is really attentive to His Highness Ten.

"My father wants to compile history, and the prince will arrange for his people to participate. Lin Xueyi is among them and informs him." On the surface, Lin Xueyi is the prince's person, but secretly he is the eighth prince's person.

"Yes, Your Highness."

The Eighth Prince looked at the candlelight with a thoughtful expression.

Seeing this, Yu Hai hurriedly asked: "Your Highness, what's wrong?"

The Eighth Prince looked away from the candlelight and said calmly: "It's nothing, you go down and do your work."

"Slave, please leave."

The Eighth Prince read the book for a while, but didn't even turn a page. He simply dropped the book in his hand, stood up and walked to the corridor, looking at the mountains in the distance.

Hulong Temple is located in Xishan on the outskirts of Beijing, where mountains stretch and the environment is quiet. In the mountain opposite Hulong Temple is the location of the imperial mausoleum, and the tomb of the late queen is there.

The Eighth Prince couldn't calm down, so he thought about it and decided to go to the Main Hall. He knelt in front of the Buddha, knocking on the wooden fish, and prayed to the Buddha to bless Zhao Yao.

In fact, he did not believe in Buddhism or God, but for Zhao Yao, he decided to pray to Buddha once.

Zhao Yao, who was worried about the eighth prince, was fine. He was currently sitting on the bed, being fed porridge by Liang Zhaoyi.

After sleeping all afternoon and most of the night, Zhao Yao's stomach was already hungry, and he had to drink two bowls of porridge before he was full. After drinking the porridge, he felt much better.

Liang Zhaoyi gently wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, "How do you feel? Is there any discomfort there?"

Zhao Yao raised his hands and waved, and said to Liang Zhaoyi with a smile: "I'm fine, I don't feel uncomfortable anywhere."

"Is it true, you didn't lie to your mother and concubine?"

"Concubine, why did I lie to you? I really have nothing to do now." Zhao Yao said with a puffed face, "I just said, I'm fine, you guys insist on me taking medicine..."

His face was pinched by Liang Zhaoyi, "You had a fever this afternoon, what did you say?"

"Ah, I have a fever, so why don't I feel anything?" After lunch, he returned to his dormitory to rest, and then he kept dreaming. He had many dreams. "Mother, I dreamed of him again."

Liang Zhaoyi heard Zhao Yao say "him" and knew who he was.

"What did you dream about him? How much do you remember?"

"I dreamed that he was studying when he was a child..." Zhao Yao frowned slightly, with a look of sympathy on his face, "He read a lot of books when he was a child..."

Zhao Yao actually remembered this dream. He wanted to tell Liang Zhaoyi about the dream, but as soon as he recalled the content of the dream, his head began to hurt.

Seeing his appearance, Liang Zhaoyi hurriedly said: "We will wait until the body recovers. Now take a good rest."

Although Zhao Yao's spirit has improved a lot, his mind is groggy because of too many dreams.

"Concubine, I'm better. I no longer have a fever. I don't need to take medicine anymore."

"No, you are not completely recovered yet, you still need to take medicine."

While he was talking, Tongxi walked in with medicine that exuded a strong bitter taste.

Zhao Yao immediately lay down on the bed, got into the quilt, wrapped himself into a silkworm chrysalis, and then rolled to the innermost part of the bed.

"Yao Yao, do you want to drink it yourself, or my mother and concubine should feed it to you." Liang Zhaoyi held the medicine and stood beside the bed with a gentle smile on her face.

Hearing Liang Zhaoyi's gentle dripping voice, Zhao Yao's scalp went numb. He didn't dare to hide in the bed anymore and rolled back obediently.

"Concubine, I'll drink it myself." After saying that, he got up and sat on the bed.

"How about I still feed you, my mother-in-law?"

Zhao Yao quickly shook his head: "I'll drink it myself." After saying that, he stretched out his hand towards Liang Zhaoyi.

Liang Zhaoyi handed the medicine to Zhao Yao. Zhao Yao pinched his nose with one hand, held the medicine bowl with the other, and drank it all in one breath. After drinking it, Zhao Yao was so sick that he almost vomited it out.

Liang Zhaoyi fed two pieces of candy into his mouth in time to stop him from vomiting.

"It's so painful." Zhao Yaosheng fell on the bed helplessly.

Seeing how pitiful he was, Liang Zhaoyi fed him two more pieces of candy.

"Concubine, even candy can't save me." This medicine was so bitter that it felt so bitter in his heart that nothing sweeter could sweeten his heart. "Mother, how long will I continue to drink? If I drink for one more day, I will really suffer to death."

"Drink for another day tomorrow. If you feel better, you don't need to drink anymore."

"I'm fine now. Don't take any medicine tomorrow."

"The imperial doctor has the final say." Liang Zhaoyi gently touched Zhao Yao's little face, "The medicine just now has a sleeping effect. You just sleep well."

Zhao Yao nodded obediently, then closed his eyes and prepared to sleep.

Liang Zhaoyi did not leave, but continued to stay by the bed. Although Zhao Yao no longer had a fever in the afternoon, she still felt uneasy.

At the same time, Yihongyuan, a famous brothel in the capital.

Li Chuan was playing hide and seek with several scantily clad women. These women are graceful and beautiful. They hid and smiled coquettishly.

"General, I'm here." The woman wearing a green bellyband gently threw a green scarf on Li Chuan's face.

"Beauty, I'm here." Li Chuan pounced on the woman with a green bellyband, but missed.

Behind him, a woman in red gauze held a red doudou and gently threw it on Li Chuan's head, "General, I'm here, come find me."

Li Chuan turned around suddenly and hugged the woman in red gauze.

"The general has caught you."

The woman in gauze raised her hand and caressed Li Chuan's face, and asked seductively: "General, how do you plan to punish me?"

Li Chuan pulled off the red cloth covering his eyes, kissed the red lips of the woman in his arms, and then picked up the woman.

After playing with several women for a long time, Li Chuan sat on the bed contentedly, drinking and flirting with several women.

"General, how long will you stay here this time? You won't be leaving again in a few days, right?"

"General, can you take us with you when you leave this time?"

"We can take good care of you."

"General, we are very lonely when you are not around."

"This general also wants to take you there, but women are not allowed in the military camp." Li Chuan's hands wandered over the bodies of several women, causing them to kick him coquettishly. "During this period, I will continue to stay in Beijing."

"That's great."

"General, since you are staying in the capital for a while, you have to come to us every day."

"Okay, okay, this general will come to favor you every day. You must serve me well."

"Don't worry, General, we will definitely take good care of you."

"Then serve this general one more time."

Li Chuan played with these women until early morning. The deputy general next to Li Chuan reminded him that he should go to court, and Li Chuan stood up dizzily.

Seeing Li Chuan's drunken appearance, the deputy general said worriedly: "General, if you are like this... I'm afraid other people will notice."

Li Chuan had already put on his court clothes, but due to hangover and excessive indulgence, his complexion was very poor and he looked very haggard. Anyone with a discerning eye will know what he did last night when he sees him like this.

"What do you see?" Li Chuan said while yawning.

"I see what you did last night." The deputy general did not expect Li Chuan to act so recklessly. "General, it is the anniversary of the death of the late empress and all entertainment activities are prohibited. If others know that you spent the night in Yihongyuan last night, it will definitely I will join you, and the emperor will definitely punish you."

After hearing this, Li Chuan waved his hand nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter, His Highness will protect me."

"General, you should know that the Emperor attaches great importance to the late Queen. During the anniversary of the late Queen's death, even His Highness must be honest. You..."

Li Chuan spent a ridiculous night, his head was dizzy and he was in severe pain. Hearing the deputy general chattering non-stop made his head hurt.

"Okay, General, I'll be fine."

Seeing that Li Chuan was impatient, the deputy general did not dare to say any more for fear of angering Li Chuan.

When Li Chuan got on the carriage, he staggered and almost fell off the carriage. Fortunately, the deputy general assisted him in time.

"General, are you okay?"

"I'll sleep in the carriage for a while. Wake me up when you get to the palace gate." Li Chuan walked into the carriage and lay down. He fell asleep after a while, snoring like thunder.

The lieutenant general and the coachman sat together and sighed helplessly when they heard Li Chuan's snoring.

On the way to the palace gate, I happened to encounter the carriage of His Royal Highness.

The lieutenant hurriedly got into the carriage. He called several times but failed to wake Li Chuan up, so he had to reach out and shake him awake.

Li Chuan was sleeping soundly when he was suddenly shaken awake and glared at the deputy general angrily.

"You don't want to live."

"General, His Highness's carriage is in front."

When Li Chuan heard this, he sat up suddenly, quickly got out of the carriage, and trotted all the way to King Dai's carriage.

"Your Highness."

Dai Wang opened the window first and saw that the person coming was Li Chuan, so he stopped the carriage. Li Chuan hurriedly got on the carriage and saluted the king.

Seeing Li Chuan's haggard expression, King Dai immediately kicked him, almost knocking him off the carriage.

Li Chuan, who was originally in a daze, was kicked by King Dai and his mind suddenly cleared.

"Your Highness, forgive me."

"Where were you fooling around last night?"

Li Chuan said hesitantly: "Yi, Hongyuan..."

When King Dai heard this, his face suddenly darkened and he kicked Li Chuan again. This time Li Chuan was kicked directly from the carriage.

Li Chuan's lieutenant saw this and hurriedly stepped forward to help Li Chuan up.

"Your Highness, calm down..." Seeing that King Dai was angry, Li Chuan knelt down beside the carriage obediently.

King Dai looked at Li Chuan condescendingly: "You are so impatient that you dare to go out and fool around at this time."

"Subordinate..." King Dai's kick just now was so hard that it made Li Chuan's heart hurt.

"Go back to me." Li Chuan must not go to the morning court with this appearance, otherwise other ministers will definitely see it.

"Yes, Your Highness."

"I will deal with you after I leave the court."

Li Chuan did not dare to delay and hurried back to his carriage and asked the deputy general to take him back home. At this time, he did not realize the seriousness of the matter.

Zhao Yao: Bage, you are really my good brother.
