In the East Palace, the prince's residence, Mufeng sat on a chair in the middle of the main hall, looked at the letter in his hand, and finally showed a satisfied smile on his face.

Zhang Luan, who stood below, seemed to be relieved at last. Before he opened his mouth, Mufeng had raised his head, opposite his four eyes, and gathered a smile on his face: "what's going on over there?"

"Return to your highness, everything is ready according to your Highness's wishes." Zhang Luan arched his hand.

"That's good." Maple nodded, thought, and said, "what does the imperial hospital say about the emperor's disease?"

When it comes to the emperor's body, Zhang Luan doesn't understand why the prince is so obsessed. However, since his highness asked, he honestly replied: "the remaining poison is still unclear. In addition, the emperor is also an old man. Therefore, there is no substantive progress."

Sure enough, maple wood frowned quickly when he heard the speech, and stood up slowly from the chair. It seemed that he thought carefully for a moment before he said, "there were many famous doctors in Yanyu Pavilion before. But those people were arranged to enter the palace?"

"Those people need to enter the state one after another when they get the news. It's not that fast, but my subordinates have ordered people to do their best. As soon as they have the news, they will naturally report it to his highness." although Zhang Luan's face hasn't changed, his eyes are slightly lowered, which seems to be a little hesitant.

The top Maple looked down at him and said, "what do you want to say, but it doesn't hurt."

Seeing that the master saw his mind, Zhang Luan was surprised, then bit his teeth, raised his eyes and said, "Your Highness, in fact, the remaining poison on the emperor is the fault of the former crown prince, which has nothing to do with us. Your highness, why bother so much."

The other party glanced at him: "I understand what you mean. I don't want to inherit the throne earlier, but I can't rush some things."

Zhang Luan felt a slight movement when he heard the speech, raised his eyes and looked in the direction of the master. He was turning quickly in his mind. Some things? Now the crown prince has the upper hand in the country's enfeoffment, but what really makes him unable to rest is not the king of Xiang, who else can: "Your Highness means, the king of Xiang?"

Maple just looked at him deeply and didn't speak.

"However, no matter how powerful the king of Xiang is, as long as his highness ascends the throne as emperor, the dust will be settled. If he doesn't obey, it will be the crime of conspiracy. At that time, his highness can legitimately claim the power to attack the country, but also worry that he can't suppress his small Wuzhou?" Zhang Luan's eyes dropped slightly and then said.

"Hum." the other party shook his head, looked at Zhang Luan and slowly opened his mouth, "this palace knows all the truth you said, but it's always the worst policy to remove the king Xiang and make a reckless move."

"Listen to your Highness's meaning, don't you already have a way." Zhang Luan suddenly brightened when he heard the speech, and quickly raised his head.

The other party just slightly tilted the corners of his mouth and nodded gently.

……

Xie Yao hurried in from the outside in Xiangwang's residence here. Xiangwang looked up at him and put down his brush: "why did you come back so soon, but did the grand master's body get any better?"

The other party stepped forward quickly and shook his head: "thank you for your concern, your highness. It's just that grandpa is old after all. This body... Ah."

Xie Yao said with a sigh, Xiang Wang paused, bypassed the desk and sat down in a chair on one side: "even if the imperial medicine in Fengzhou city is not enough, send more people to go outside to have a look, maybe it's also a way."

"Thank you for your concern. The Fengzhou city is full of doctors with excellent medical skills, but my grandfather is mostly worried right now. Even if he is looking for all the famous doctors in the world, he may not be able to improve. So after thinking about it, my subordinates decided to come back to the Palace first." Xie Yao bowed his hands respectfully to King Xiang and replied.

His words are indeed reasonable, but the situation is unclear in the closure of the state city. Although he and the crown prince are planning carefully, they are afraid that it will take a long time to decide the victory or defeat. For a moment, I felt guilty and didn't know how to speak.

Xie Yao suddenly seemed to think of something and said, "by the way, these days, it's also because of my grandfather's illness. The old housekeeper of the residence mentioned to me that at present, many foreign doctors have come to the city of Fengzhou, which seems to be ready to enter the palace."

The king heard what he said, but first he was slightly stunned, then he dropped his eyes and thought carefully. Although he was now banned in the city, there were many eyeliner in the palace. In the palace, besides needing to mention the emperor, he had not heard anything else. "You mean, the prince ordered people to find these people."

"Yes." Xie Yao nodded and analyzed, "when my subordinates first heard the news, they quietly inquired about it. These people received the news about half a month ago and came to seal the state in order to enter the palace for use. Your highness, think carefully. Isn't it the time that Mingyi crown Prince got the throne before this month?"

The news came only half a month ago. At that time, the emperor was always ill, and the former crown prince controlled the closure of the state. At that time, the emperor could not make an order. The time was just half a month ago. It seems that it was indeed the idea of crown prince Mingyi.

"What you said is reasonable, but now that Mingyi crown prince has ascended the throne of the East Palace, he is very worried about our king Xiang's residence. He has tried his best to get rid of us. Now he has tried his best to find a doctor for what. In fact, the emperor is gone, and his smooth accession to the throne is not justified."

Xie Yao shook his head: "Prince Mingyi has always been scheming. If he does so, it must be the emperor's illness. For him, his Majesty must have other uses."

This Mingyi crown prince, this time in the Fengzhou City, planned strategies and did not waste a soldier. He stepped on all the princes. He was really clever. Of course, he wanted to remove the Xiang palace, but compared with other princes, the Xiang palace had far-reaching prestige and wanted to remove it, both in the imperial court and at the border, I'm afraid we have to make a good plan.

"These days, mysterious people have been waiting for opportunities to spy outside the residence, but they haven't started yet. Although the king doesn't know the identity of those people, I think it must have something to do with the crown prince of Mingyi."

As soon as his voice fell, Xie Yao sneered: "there are only a few of his own soldiers. These days, they peep outside our palace. They must be thinking repeatedly whether they can succeed in one fell swoop if they assassinate your highness."

"In the royal residence, many people have been deployed since the first day when the king entered the state. Those people must have known this method for a long time. This method is not feasible." King Xiang also agreed to nod his head, thought about it, and said, "so he will certainly think about other methods."

"Yes." Xie Yao nodded, "so my subordinates think that these days, the East Palace and the movements in the Palace should be analyzed carefully, and we can certainly see the clue."

The Xiangwang here nodded. Before he opened his mouth, he saw a spy running in: "Your Highness, there is news from the South Street."

"South Street?!" Xiangwang was a little confused for a moment. South Street is just a market place. What useful news can he have? "What's the matter? What happened there."

The spy arched his hands and said, "nothing big happened. However, his subordinates were ordered to monitor the people in the east palace. They found that several people went in and out of the South Street frequently. At first, his subordinates didn't pay attention. Later, they went there more times, so they followed him and looked. As a result, they found that they were tracking a person..."

At this point, the spy's eyes turned to Xie Yaodu. Xie Yao was puzzled: "who is following?"

"It's general Xie of the Taishi mansion, the general's father." the spy looked at Xie Yaodu and said with his eyes.

The South Street is full of market shops, and most of them are places to sell buried objects. Although the grandfather is in poor health, at this time, his father went to the South Street to buy these things, which is too much.

Xie Yaozheng felt depressed and heard the confused voice of King Xiang: "these people are just tracking, but what other actions do they have?"
