Ten years ago, Concubine Yuxian was not as calm as water now, Empress Xia was just a noble concubine, Empress Su was still alive, and another stunning girl did not lose her wings because of the bondage of Zhengjin Palace.

But all this was broken with the tension of the border war in Darong Dynasty.

The retreating frontier defense army could not resist the barbarian attack at all, and the Shenlin army was scattered all over the southwestern border under the control of Emperor Meng Qing.When countless courtiers finally pleaded for the Su family to return to the northern border to repel the barbarians, news spread that the old general of the Su family had colluded with the enemy and treasoned the country, causing heavy losses to the army.

The left and right generals of the Shenlin army were severely injured, the Su family was ransacked and beheaded, and the Yun family was wiped out in the battle. Empress Su was so desperate that she couldn't make it through. The fourth prince, Zhao Ruixi, who was only ten years old at the time.

The fourth prince, who was already frail, was even more sick because of it.

There was a commotion in the court hall, and the generals who followed the Taizu to conquer the world became inscriptions in the history books. The Su family was infamous, and the Yun family was completely silent since then, as if they had been completely forgotten.

Later, the imperial concubine became Empress Xia, and the three princesses were sent to marry each other. The turbulent situation stabilized again, and the victim was a woman who would not be recorded in the history books.

"Back then, you and I couldn't protect Yu'er, but this time, we will definitely be able to protect Ru'er."

And the Yu'er that Empress Xia and Concubine Yuxian were talking about was Zhao Wenyu, the first eldest princess of Great Rong who was deprived of the title of first eldest princess ten years ago and then rewarded again.

She is also Zhao Ruixi's direct relative, the elder sister of a compatriot from the same mother.

----------

At the dinner table, Zhao Ruiyi obviously had a restless temperament, so he talked about the events in the court hall these past few days, "Mother, the envoys are here today. It is said that the envoys from the north are visiting after the Autumn Festival."

"There is still one year before the big tribute, why is it brought forward?" Queen Xia asked, there must be something strange about the sudden advance.

"It's true, but it's true that the prince will soon be [-] years old and come to the Central Plains to learn etiquette, so come early."

Obviously, Empress Xia and Concubine Yuxian didn't like Keduzhen's tribe very much, Empress Xia said, "Only one prince?"

There was sarcasm in Empress Xia's eyes, her son was so old, yet he still had the guts to beg for Da Rong's eldest princess.

"Yes, they said that only one prince will come." Zhao Ruiyi replied.

Empress Xia's voice was cold, "When the mission comes to Beijing, take care of your sisters, don't let them run around, so that when they leave home, some people will come to my place to cry."

As I said before, in the generation of Emperor Meng Qing, the number of heirs is thin, and now there are only six princes over the age of 15, and there is only one princess, the nine princesses, and the rest are only a few years older than Ru'er.

The nine princesses and the seventh prince and one mother are all born to Concubine De, and their presence in the palace is very thin. If they are really sent to marry each other, Concubine De, who eats fast and chant Buddha all day long, may not be able to come to Phoenix Yigong Tiantang sang the Great Compassion Mantra to her.

Zhao Ruiyi is not a fool, she immediately understood what her mother meant.

"Mother, there is one more thing—"

"Say." Empress Xia didn't show mercy at all, as if her son was just a gift, and she devoted herself to playing with Ru'er.

Zhao Ruiyi obviously adapted well to this situation, "It's my fourth brother's business."

Concubine Yuxian who was drinking soup at the side also stopped to see what he was about to say.

"I went to pick up my fourth brother today, and I saw that his illness seemed to be getting worse. Is there really no way to find a doctor to treat his illness?" Zhao Ruiyi was obviously really worried about his fourth brother.

Compared with the previous generation who fought to the death for the throne, the princes of this generation have a harmonious relationship. The eldest prince Zhao Ruian became a monk early, and Zhao Ruiyi is a little follower who worships his fourth brother. Although Zhao Ruiyi detests this dislike all day long That, but when it comes to critical moments, no brother has helped.

Concubine Yuxian's family used to have Xinglin experts, and now there are people in the family who work in the Imperial Hospital, "Your fourth brother's illness is not just a congenital deficiency, ordinary treatment methods are difficult to be effective."

"How about that?"

"Either find the Fengshen doctor who is elusive in the Jianghu, or ask people from Yaowanggu or Miaojiang to help." Concubine Yuxian became gentle and serious. It was obvious that Zhao Ruiyi's illness was what they were all concerned about.

"Didn't Medicine King Valley only sell medicine? How can it also cure diseases?" Zhao Ruiyi knew the name of Medicine King Valley, and the ministers of the court and central government would inevitably buy some good things from Medicine King Valley during the Chinese New Year.

Concubine Yuxian said casually: "There are only two factions."

"What about Miao Jiang?"

——Because there is not only poison in Zhao Ruixi's body, but also Gu...

----------

In the imperial study room, Meng Qinghuang, who had just sent away Zhu Guo's general Ren Fengqi, had a serious expression on his face. Obviously, the border is not very stable this year.

Not only that, but the hidden guard he sent out has not returned yet. He moved his finger, and the black shadow quietly appeared in the study again.

"Go to Prince Xi's Mansion to find out."

At this time, Zhao Ruixi, who had just been carried back to Prince Xi's mansion, was already exhaling more and breathing less.

Feng Zhiyan's medicine did allow him to survive for two hours, but his body was at the end of its strength if it couldn't hold it back.

Jiang Jiuyi, who had been wrapped up like a mummy by Feng Zhiyan, was lying on the bed when she saw Zhao Ruixi who was about to let go, and almost jumped out of bed.

He couldn't help but jump, Feng Zhiyan had already tapped his acupoints first and let him lie on the bed obediently.

Zhao Ruixi was lying on the soft bed opposite him, and Feng Zhiyan began to bandage and treat his wound, sending energy into Zhao Ruixi's body along with his silver needles.

Soon, blackened blood overflowed from the corners of Zhao Ruixi's lips, and slowly turned to normal red, and Zhao Ruixi's complexion was finally normal, no longer as pale as a dead person.

Only then did Feng Zhiyan let out a long sigh of relief, and without raising his head, he ordered his medicine boy to make medicine for Zhao Ruixi, and he turned his head and said to Jiang Jiuyi after Zhao Ruixi's breathing had completely stabilized.

"He's fine, now he needs to rest more."

Although Feng Zhiyan sealed Jiang Jiuyi's acupoints to prevent him from moving around, Jiang Jiuyi was still able to speak, so he asked, "Then what about his detoxification?"

Feng Zhiyan's expression was ugly, "To make matters worse, it will only be more difficult to see his own good luck."

"You two, each one is reassuring."

"Who!"

However, Feng Zhiyan chased him out, only seeing a vague black shadow, and immediately called the hidden guards from Fengjiabao to follow.

Jiang Jiuyi squinted her eyes, as if she was identifying the figure of the black shadow, "The person who attacked last night should be with them."

"Mr. Feng! The room where the corpse was locked suddenly caught fire. After I put out the fire, I found that the corpse had disappeared."

A sneer came from the room, and Zhao Ruixi woke up!
