Those days when Mrs. Yazhai

Shen Qi never expected that he would not be able to find the whereabouts of the thousand-year-old snow ginseng immediately after returning to the imperial city.He was worried about He'an, but he couldn't ignore the matter of Qi'er.

After daybreak, the street began to become noisy, Shen Qi settled down, and led Zhong Mo and Shen Xi to stand in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Before entering the door, Shen Qi explained worriedly: "If you can see Ke'er later, Xixi, you must tell her what's on your mind."

Shen Xi nodded, and said aggrievedly: "I've always wanted to tell her."

Just when Shen Qi was about to lift his foot to go in, the butler of the Prime Minister's Mansion happened to come out from the door, and his eyes met, Shen Qi could clearly see the butler's eyes brighten up.

The housekeeper didn't seem to believe it at first, but after rubbing his eyes, he shouted in surprise: "The fourth prince is back!"

After Shen Qi was arranged properly, he heard that Prime Minister Ye went to the palace early yesterday morning, and he hasn't come back yet.As for what to do in the palace, the housekeeper can guess without mentioning Shen Qi.

"How is the emperor?" Shen Qi asked.

The butler poured tea for the three of them, sat down and sighed, and said, "It's not very good, I'm afraid the time has come."

Shen Xi was a little sad when he heard it.

When he ran out of the palace, the emperor was already in a bad condition. He wanted to see the emperor before leaving, but the guards in front of the emperor's bedroom were too strict. Once he was caught, he would never be able to escape again. , so this idea was abandoned.

The butler straightened his clothes, stood up and said, "I have sent someone to call the general, and he will be here later. The three of you sit down first, and I have to go out to do some errands."

After the butler left, Ye Linjiang came back.

There was no joy of reunion after a long absence, and no surprise as imagined, Ye Linjiang's face turned dark when he saw Shen Qi.

He asked very incomprehensibly, "What are you doing back here?"

There was no outsider in the room, so Shen Qi told the truth, "Come back and help He'an find medicine."

For this reason Ye Linjiang was a little speechless.

"I will look for He'an's medicine. Why do you come back? Do you know what time it is? Do you know that you can't leave when you come back!"

After listening to Ye Linjiang's suppressed anger, Shen Qi replied indifferently: "But He'an can't wait anymore, he's lying on the bed now and waiting for me to send the medicine back."

Ye Linjiang calmed down a little when he heard this, and said, "So what are you going to do?"

Shen Qi didn't know what his plan was, but there was an idea in his mind: to save He'an.

Zhong Mo said: "He An really can't wait too long, that's why we rushed back, and Shen Qi didn't want this kind of thing to happen."

Ye Linjiang was silent for a while, and then said: "The medicine is in the palace, if you want to find it, you have to go back to the palace as soon as possible, and try to ask the whereabouts of the medicine while the emperor is still breathing."

In fact, Ye Linjiang had long planned to find the thousand-year-old snow ginseng by himself, and also planned how to get the medicine.

He sent people to search almost all over the palace but couldn't find it, and finally turned his attention to the emperor's bedroom.The emperor must keep such precious medicinal materials close to his body.

He originally planned to sneak around the palace to search for the emperor after his death, but now that Shen Qi has returned, those plans are too numerous to count.

Shen Qi looked at Ye Linjiang, and said firmly: "But I can't go back now, I want to meet Ke'er first."

This is another headache, Ye Linjiang couldn't help but sighed again, "Jie'er is getting married tomorrow, my father won't let anyone see her now."

Shen Qi asked in surprise: "You can't do it either?"

Ye Linjiang shook his head.

Ke'er tried to escape more than once.Ye Shu helped her escape once, and Ye Linjiang also helped her escape once. Prime Minister Ye couldn't trust anyone anymore, so he ordered no one to see Jie'er.

Shen Xi said with a mournful face, "Is there really no other way?"

Ye Linjiang said again: "Jie'er is not the kind of obedient person, so if she really doesn't want to get married, she will find a way to escape even on the day of the wedding. Ye Shu and I have already made preparations to meet her. When she escapes When we come out, we will send her away."

After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at Shen Xi, and confessed with a serious face: "The fifth prince should go back to the palace now, the will will be announced as soon as the emperor goes, and it is absolutely impossible for the fifth prince not to be here."

Shen Xi asked with tears in her eyes: "But can Ke'er really escape tomorrow?"

It's not that Ye Linjiang didn't know that Shen Xi had been wandering around the prime minister's mansion for several days. He also thought about going out to persuade Shen Xi to go back, but everyone in the palace was in a mess, and the fifth prince's disappearance hadn't been disturbed yet. Everyone knew it, so Ye Linjiang thought: Wait a little longer, let Shen Xi take a closer look at Ke'er.

But now it can't work, the missing Shen Qi is back, the emperor won't live long, the fifth prince will definitely be noticed if he doesn't go back.So Ye Linjiang pretended to be serious and said: "I can do it if I say it. I want Ke'er to be happy more than anyone else. Can the fifth prince still trust me?"

Shen Xi nodded slightly aggrieved, and said, "I believe it."

Ye Linjiang escorted Shen Qi and the others all the way into the palace, sent Shen Xi back to his yard, and then took Shen Qi and Zhong Mo straight to the emperor's bedroom.

The emperor was dying, and almost all the ministers were waiting outside the bedroom. Ye Linjiang caused a riot as soon as he led the people into everyone's sight.

"Is that the fourth prince?"

"I look like, don't you see that General Ye is here with you?"

"How did he come back? Where did he come back from?"

A minister cautiously asked Prime Minister Ye: "Dare to ask the prime minister, is that the fourth prince?"

Prime Minister Ye frowned, feeling a little surprised.Why did he come back before picking up Shen Qi?

A minister who had always been at odds with Prime Minister Ye said angrily: "Why didn't the fourth prince come back sooner or later, but why did he come back at this time? Could it be that someone planned it in advance?"

Prime Minister Ye cast a disdainful glance at that person, and asked him, "Then who does Mr. Song think is this someone who planned this long ago?"

Mr. Song, who was being questioned, couldn't say such unsubstantiated words directly in front of everyone, so he could only snort and pretend to be mysterious and did not speak.

Ye Linjiang led Shen Qi to the front of the ministers, and said calmly: "The fourth prince was kidnapped by thieves and trapped elsewhere. Fortunately, this young master rescued him and he can only come back today."

As he spoke, he pushed Zhong Mo forward.

Zhong Mo was a little confused.Ye Linjiang didn't tell him about this before he came here, why did he suddenly become Shen Qi's savior?

Prime Minister Ye was also slightly stunned, and after realizing it, he took the lead to salute Zhong Mo first, and said, "Thank you, my lord, for saving my nephew."

After exchanging pleasantries, Shen Qi left Zhong Mo outside and walked into the emperor's bedroom by himself.

The room was a bit dark, but Shen Xi saw Wu Sun in front of the emperor's bed at a glance.He was gently rubbing the emperor's hand, and seemed to be saying something in his mouth.

Sensing the sound of footsteps, Wu Sun stopped what he was doing, and asked without turning his head, "Why are you back?"

Shen Qi froze for a moment, then walked a few steps forward to the bed, and said, "I have something important to look for."
