Chapter 441

"Girl, me, what's wrong with me?"

When Shang Zhi woke up after being given the antidote, he felt a little dizzy, and his whole body was in a state of ecstasy.

"You've been poisoned." Ling Mu'er helped her up, making her lean on the soft bed as comfortably as possible.

"What? Poisoned?" Shang Zhi was stunned.

She got up in a hurry, but because of her weakness, she almost fell from the collapse. She checked her pulse in a hurry, but found nothing. Just as she was about to ask, she saw the medicine bottle in Ling Muer's hand from the corner of her eye, and her nose felt sore , "Thank you for saving my life, girl."

"Be careful next time, there is an antidote in hand, what if there is no antidote next time?"

Ling Mu'er didn't want to scare her, but Amu De was very charming, and he was able to escape the heavy guards of the second prince's mansion and come to her room quietly, which proved that he could do even more arrogant things.

This time, he was in a good mood and thought it would be profitable, so he didn't kill him. If one day he took the wrong medicine, all the people around her would report to the Palace of Hell.

"Thank you for the reminder, Miss, Shang Zhi will keep it in mind."

Seeing the girl's serious face, Shang Zhi didn't dare to be negligent, let alone ask what was going on, "Girl, are you okay then, why is your face so ugly?"

Could it be that when she fainted, the girl fought with the thief because of her? Otherwise, how could the girl have an antidote in her hands?

Since the thief poisoned her, he certainly wouldn't drop the antidote, otherwise why would he poison her.

In her heart, she felt guilty and worshiped the girl even more.

"I'm fine, but there's something I need you to do, Shang Zhi, can you do it well?" Ling Mu'er thought about it, only she and Jiang Xiang were the most reliable people around her.

"The girl's business is Shang Zhi's business, just follow the girl's orders."

"Secretly ask, there is a national flower in the Western Regions..." Ling Muer whispered in a secretive and cautious manner, and when she finished speaking, she looked into Shang Zhi's eyes very seriously, "Remember, this matter is not allowed to be revealed to anyone. Including Shao Chen and Jiang Xiang, understand?"

Shang Zhi was startled, she seldom talked to her master, she was afraid of his majesty, but Jiang Xiang refused to let her speak, which shows how important this matter is.

"Shang Zhi will do his best to investigate this matter, but why is the girl suddenly curious about things in the Western Regions?" She tilted her head. "Isn't the virtuous king the son-in-law of the Western Regions? Wouldn't it be more convenient to ask the virtuous king?"

"I don't hide it from you. It is rumored that the national flower of the Western Regions can cure my abnormal pulse condition. It is precisely because I don't know if it is true or not that I let you investigate it secretly. My illness came suddenly, and I didn't even know it in my heart. How troublesome to others? Besides, as the Second Prince’s concubine, the only way to catch me is to catch the Second Prince’s handle. If it gets out, I am in urgent need of the national flower of the Western Regions. What danger?"

Although Shang Zhi didn't quite understand the meaning of the girl's words, when she heard the last few words, she hurriedly covered her mouth with her palm.

"The girl actually told Shang Zhi about such an important matter, and Shang Zhi will try her best to handle it well."

"Thank you."

The imperial palace, the imperial study room.

When Shangguan Shaochen came to the imperial study, he found that the prince had already knelt in front of his father, his face was full of grief, his expression was complicated, and he looked very haggard.

"Son, pay respects to father." Shangguan Shaochen saluted, then nodded with the crown prince, then saw father's pale complexion, he opened his thin lips lightly, "does father feel much better recently?"

"Not in the way." The three words fell slowly, and the emperor motioned to Shangguan Shaochen for him to sit in front of him.

"I ordered you and Lao Liu Jian Guo. You two brothers have worked hard these days. I have heard about the affairs of the court. You have handled them very well."

The emperor nodded in relief, and was about to praise again, but he couldn't help the discomfort in his throat, and he started coughing violently again.

"Father!" Shangguan Shaochen and the prince raised their eyes and looked at him nervously, and the two of them handed hot water one after another.

It was an ordinary move, but in this embarrassing day before him, it seemed a little deliberate.

Shangguan Shaochen didn't want the prince to be in trouble, he put down the teacup first, and the emperor had no choice but to take the cup from the prince's hand.

"Father, be careful of burning." The prince reminded, but the emperor snorted coldly.

Seeing the crown prince bowing his head because of being reprimanded, Shangguan Shaochen hurriedly said, "Father is absurd, although the son and the sixth brother supervise the country together, the crown prince has helped a lot in some matters. "

"Hmph! Don't put gold on his face. I don't know how much he weighs?" The emperor changed from the contempt just now to a complete snort from his nasal cavity.

It's not a day or two since he looked down on the crown prince. If it wasn't for flirting with women, how could he abolish his position as crown prince. If it wasn't for Concubine Yi's sudden return to the palace, he felt guilty, and he would have missed the crown prince's seat long ago.

"Okay, since both of your brothers are here, I won't go around in circles with you. You must have seen today's imperial decree. From now on, the prince Qin Yuheng will be abolished as the prince. Do you have any opinions?"

The emperor is asking you, not you.

Obviously, he paid great attention to Shangguan Shaochen's thoughts.

Although Qin Yuheng was very upset when he heard this, he knew that he was not capable enough, so he just lowered his head blindly without saying a word.

"Your Majesty, my subjects do not agree." Shangguan Shaochen immediately objected.

He looked back at the prince and looked at each other, and when he looked at his father again, his face was full of sincerity without any adulteration, "The third brother has been the prince for many years, and has already won the hearts of the people. Maybe some abilities are not as good as others, but the prince has been doing his best. Do your best to study, this is obvious to all. I don’t know why the Sixth Brother insisted on requesting the abolition of the crown prince, but according to my son, the crown prince has not done anything detrimental to his status during his reign, so why should he be punished so severely?”

After saying that, Shangguan Shaochen got up from the chair and half-kneeled in front of the emperor, "My son dares to ask father to take back his order!"

"Second Brother?" Qin Yuheng looked at Shangguan Shaochen in disbelief, never expecting that he would plead for himself.

At the moment he was invited by the sixth prince to play, he knew that the position of the crown prince was destined to be lost, but for the next half month, he was anxious and uneasy every day, and he never calmed down for a day, and every day he could always hear someone persuading him The emperor promised to play the voice.

He didn't understand why so many people were dissatisfied with his position as the crown prince?

He admits that he is not as smart as the second emperor brother, nor as courageous as the seventh emperor brother, but he is already working hard, and he is working hard to do better, can't these people see it?

Especially the sixth emperor brother, since he became famous in the court where he identified the seventh emperor brother, he has become more and more daring.

The second brother is still the first one who can support him.

"Presumptuous!" The emperor was very dissatisfied with Shangguan Shaochen's request, "I have a golden mouth, how can anyone change it? Besides, the third child doesn't know what kind of virtue and ability he has?"

Hearing this, the crown prince hurriedly knelt on the ground, "Please calm down my father, my son, I know that I am stupid, please don't let my father get angry because of my son."

"Hmph, even at this moment you still have... useless things!" The emperor not only did not calm down, but became even more angry.

He was unwell during this time, but he was not so sick that he fell into a coma and didn't know everything, especially after Lao Liu asked for a performance, he deliberately waited half a month before agreeing, just to give the prince a chance.

It's a pity that he never came to the imperial study to beg him once. If he hadn't delivered the decree today, would he have entered the palace?

To keep your seat and ask others to speak? Then the position of the prince will be taken back!

"Come here, pass on my decree. Starting today, the second prince, Shangguan Shaochen, can be canonized as the crown prince, and the canonization ceremony will be held on a good day!" smell.

Qin Yuheng heard the words, looked at the emperor for a long time, and finally sighed heavily.

Closing his eyes and then opening them again, he heard the voice of the second brother begging constantly, after all he stretched out his hand tremblingly and tugged at his sleeve, "Second brother don't have to say anything on behalf of the second brother."

Shangguan Shaochen didn't expect him to give up so quickly, and wanted to reprimand him, but because of his father's presence, he whispered, "Father is just out of anger, not really intending to revoke your crown prince, Qin Yuheng, cheer up .”

"I, the prince, have been rumored to be incompetent and incompetent since the day I ascended to the position of prince. I know what people outside are talking about me, and I have already guessed that this position will not last long. So, Second Brother, there is no need to say any more."

Qin Yuheng smiled lightly, full of helplessness in his smile.

He looked at the emperor, and kowtowed heavily, "Thank you, father, for saving me from the sea of ​​suffering, and my son obeys the holy order!"

After three kowtows, he got up, flicked his sleeves, and left the imperial study as if he was in a leisurely state.

"Prince?" Shangguan Shaochen hurriedly chased after him, but he was worried about his father.

Seeing this, the emperor was very angry. He gritted his teeth and stared, and slammed his fist on the table, "Hmph!"

"Father calm down, please let the ministers persuade the prince, and also ask the father to withdraw the order just now, and discuss it again." Shangguan Shaochen hurriedly said a few words, and hurriedly chased Qin Yuheng out.

In the distance, I can still hear the cursing from behind the emperor himself, "Useless things, stupid, incompetent, I really misjudged you at the beginning!"

"Qin Yuheng!" Shangguan Shaochen scolded angrily.

The prince who left quickly stood still.

When he looked back, his originally calm eyes were a little scarlet, although the corners of his mouth were raised viciously, with a rebellious and indifferent appearance, but Shangguan Shaochen could tell that he was depressed in his heart.

"Why don't you ask the father for mercy? You should know that for the sake of Concubine Yi, or the face of the little emperor's grandson, the father will definitely agree, why?" Shangguan Shaochen pulled him into a corner.

"What's the use? You heard what my father said just now. Even my father looks down on me. If I still hang on to this seat, isn't that shameless?"

The prince laughed at himself, "It is because of my concubine that I returned to this position, but how long will this last? With you and Qin Ruochen here, I will be the green leaf in your life after all. I can't compare with you. Come down and bring shame on yourself, why don't you take the initiative and save some face for yourself!"

He patted his face, took a deep breath, and his complexion looked much better, as if he had let go of the boulder that had been suppressed in his heart for many years.

Soon, he changed the subject and became strict again.

"But compared to the sixth child, I hope that the person who takes my place...is you."
