Just as dawn the next day, Huang Zicheng and a group of officials had already entered the Meridian Gate of the Imperial City. Fortunately, if you attend court in winter, everyone would have to call lanterns.

Next to the imperial road, Huang Zicheng soon saw the eunuch Wu Zhong. This eunuch who is not handsome, old and fat, has served the emperor for many years.

"Eunuch Wu is early." Huang Zicheng called out first.

Wu Zhong grabbed Huang Zicheng's sleeve and pulled it aside, saying sadly: "The emperor hasn't been sleeping well all night. He looks haggard in the morning. I'm so sad..."

Huang Zicheng hurriedly echoed: "The court is in a turbulent period. The emperor is working hard, and all the ministers are wrong. They have not tried their best to share their worries with the emperor."

Wu Zhong said: "The emperor did not care about the court because of his efforts, but the prince of Yan!"

Huang Zicheng was not surprised at all, and thought to himself: Isn’t the matter of the prince of Yan the court?

Wu Zhong came over and whispered, "Not long ago, the King of Xiang was burned to death, and the rumors were forced to kill him by the emperor. Now the prince of Yan is imprisoned in Beijing. If there is another fault, I still don't know what the public opinion will be like."

Huang Zicheng nodded and frowned, "The emperor is very worried, so he can't explain it to the King of Yan."

"No?" Wu Zhong said, "Now someone has already whispered that the prince of Yan was poisoned!"

Huang Zicheng frowned and never stretched.

Wu Zhong glanced at him, "The emperor got up and had not put on his clothes, so he called me and told me to come to find Lord Huang. The imperial doctor sent over was in charge of Taichang Temple. Lord Huang called the Imperial Gate to ask questions later."

"It will definitely be done." Huang Zicheng asked cautiously again, "Did the emperor appointed the imperial doctor to the crown prince's mansion?"

"Of course, there is something else?" Wu Zhong said.

"Okay, OK." Huang Zicheng nodded immediately.

Huang Zicheng said goodbye to the eunuch and arranged for his subordinates to pass on the imperial physician, so he went to court first.

After the morning court, the imperial doctors came to Fengtian Gate. No one said it was poisoned, and they didn't even have much of their own judgment. They spoke very cautiously... They only talked about specific symptoms, without lies or concealment.

In the afternoon, someone came to the palace to report that after the prince drank the decoction prepared by the imperial doctor several times, his condition became worse and his pulse became weaker!

Emperor Zhu Yunwen looked extremely anxious as he paved back and forth.

At this moment, Zhu Yunwen suddenly turned around with his hands behind his back and asked, "Who else has visited the Prince of Yan except the imperial doctor?"

Huang Zicheng hurriedly bowed and said, "When the people who went to visit were Duke of Wei and the commander of Sichuan. Qu Neng, the left governor Xu Zengshou and a monk, the son-in-law Wang Ning and the eldest son Wang Zhenliang."

Zhu Yunwen took two steps in front of the imperial throne, quickly ruled out the two brothers of the Xu family, and said, "It is said that Wang Ning will come to see me."

"Abide by the order!"

After a long time, Wang Ning kowtowed outside the door to meet him. Zhu Yunwen couldn't wait to announce that he came in and asked directly: "How is the condition of the Prince of Yan?"

Wang Ning replied: "When I returned to the emperor, the prince vomited continuously and his pulse was weak. I am afraid he died soon. I think it was poisoning! Some imperial doctors said this on the spot..."

The imperial gate suddenly became silent, and even a needle could be heard! Even Huang Zicheng was stunned by these words. This son-in-law really dared to say it!

Zhu Yunwen was anxious and angry: "Who is so bold and arbitrary?! The Jinyiwei has been closely guarding the prince's mansion. How did the poison be sent to the mansion?"

Wang Ning said: "The incident happened suddenly and it was difficult to detect it in a moment. I didn't even know any poison. If I had to wait until the poisoner was found and the antidote was found, it would be too late."

At this time, Huang Zicheng and others lowered their heads, unable to see the emperor's face clearly, and they only heard the emperor ask, "Tell me, what should I do to deal with this?"

No one responded in the empty imperial gate for a while. After a while, Wang Ning's voice said, "I have a few words, don't you know whether to say it..."

Zhu Yunwen said, "Say!"

Wang Ning said: "Whether the prince can survive is not the same as heaven. But I think he will never die in the capital."

"Oh?" Zhu Yunwen made a voice, obviously thinking that this statement was somewhat meaningful.

Wang Ning continued: "The prince was imprisoned in the capital's residence. If he died here, whether the truth can be found regardless of whether it is true. It may be difficult to explain it clearly...

Previously, the King of Yan wrote a letter saying that he was sick and wanted to see his sons. Why didn’t the emperor allow the report to be released and wait for the prince to go back? The prince is the eldest son of the King of Yan. The King of Yan will definitely do his best to save the prince.

The emperor cherishes the royal family with great affection and love, and is the greatest virtue in his heart, and praises his subjects."

After Wang Ning said that, he bent down and stood in the middle with his fists. Zhu Yunwen had just sat down, and then stood up from the imperial seat and paced back and forth.

When Huang Zicheng heard that he was going to let the Yan King go, he felt very uncomfortable and faintly depressed... After so many troubles, he finally let Zhu Gaoxu leave as if he was fine?

At this time, Huang Zicheng thought: The prince was seriously ill, why did he let the three of them go together?

But he thought again: Is the prince really poisoned? If the poisoner cannot be found for a moment, then Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui are "ill" again, and the emperor asked him how to do what?

Huang Zicheng glanced at Qi Tai who was standing beside him. Qi Tai had no intention of saying anything... Wang Ning said that the emperor loved the royal family and kissed him as the most important thing. Qi Tai must be unwilling to be criticized by the "meaning royal family", which would create more personal enemies!

Thinking of this, Huang Zicheng swallowed the words on his lips without saying a word. Thinking about it, he and Zhu Gaoxu didn't seem to have much grudge against him, and he didn't care much about the dead person in the Xu family.

Why should people be too persistent?

At this time, Zhu Yunwen waved his sleeves violently, his tone was filled with anger and irritability, "Go away! Send them away!"

When Huang Zicheng heard this, he felt mixed emotions and sighed secretly.

...Wang Ning and his son Wang Zhenliang left the imperial city and rushed to the Prince of Yan's mansion to convey the holy intention.

In front of the prince's bed, Wang Ning reminded quietly: "You'd better prepare and set off tomorrow. The emperor has agreed, and Huang Siqing was also present at that time."

"I am most worried about Huang Zicheng..." Zhu Gaoxu pondered.

Wang Ning immediately looked sideways with Wang Zhenliang and Gao Sui.

Zhu Gaoxu remembered the confinement. At that time, he had already escaped the custody, but a second imperial edict came, causing them to be locked up here for more than half a month. Later, he heard from his fourth uncle that this was the idea of ​​his uncle Xu Huizu...

"It's not too late, I'm afraid that there will be more dreams at night. Besides, my brother's condition cannot be delayed. I think I should set off right away!" Zhu Gaoxu observed the sun outside the door and said decisively.

Wang Ning asked, "Is it too late?"

Zhu Gaoxu did not answer this question and bowed directly to Wang Ning and said, "I would like to ask my uncle to send our brothers out of the city and confirm the holy intentions to the guardians."

Wang Ning nodded and said, "Since you are leaving, I should be the uncle who is in good faith and reasonable."

Zhu Gaoxu clenched his fists and tapped his forehead lightly, and said, "Brother is seriously ill and urgent. We should act expediently. We don't have to tell others or clean up anything. Let's set off immediately... Cousin, now leave Jinchuan Gate and help us arrange a boat crossing the river. Is there any way?"

Wang Zhenliang immediately responded: "This is a trivial matter."

Zhu Gaoxu pondered for a moment, "I still need to drive a strong carriage, four mounts, a pair of double saddles and stirrups, and some dry food to deliver it to the west bank of the Yangtze River."

Wang Zhenliang said: "Yes."

Zhu Gaoxu glanced at him, "What I put in your place..."

Wang Zhenliang showed a thoughtful look and said calmly, "You can also send it across the river."

Zhu Gaoxu bowed to the Wang family's father and son again, "Gao Xu will definitely not forget his uncle and cousin's love today."

Wang Ning waved his hand and said, "All of them are relatives, why do you think this is done?"

"I will meet again in the future and drink again." Zhu Gaoxu said.

The prince was lying on the bed and talking was not good. Zhu Gaoxu arranged everything in less than a stick of incense. He immediately found the carriage from the mansion, carried the prince into the carriage, and went out immediately.

There was a matter of the governor's office of the Later Army, the son-in-law Wang Ning issued an imperial edict, but the Jinyiwei did not stop it. The crime of forgerating the edict was very high, and it was unlikely that a royal relative and nobleman would fake the imperial edict.

The carriage was walking on the road in the capital. Zhu Gaoxu looked outside, his heart was hanging. He always had an illusion: a group of horse soldiers suddenly appeared, which made the streets go wild!

But that didn't happen. Pedestrians walked their own paths, vendors shouted and sold... The bustling streets were also another kind of peace.

There was nothing wrong along the way, and the majestic city tower of Jinchuan outside had already appeared in sight. As long as you came out of this gate, you would really leave the capital. The capital of the Ming Dynasty was the center of the country, and from here, there were countless roads leading to countless places.

Zhu Gaoxu looked at the city tower and saw it as if it was slowly getting bigger and closer. Although it was slow, it could be felt carefully; just like the sun in the west was slowly moving.

...

Xu Huizu had just finished talking about Sichuan border defense affairs with Qu Neng in the yamen of the Central Army Governor's Office, and was about to wait for the time being to beat the drum at You. At this time, he heard the report from his subordinates that the princes of the King of Yan left the capital with the order!

"According to the imperial edict? Who came up with the idea?" Xu Huizu was shocked. He knew that it was easy for the emperor to believe other people's suggestions today, especially the suggestions that sounded reasonable.

The subordinate replied: "I don't know what the withdrawn brothers of the Jinyiwei said, and I just heard it."

His hands unconsciously slapped the tabletop. After a while, he looked up and saw his subordinates standing in the lobby. He asked again: "When will they leave?"

"It's about an hour."

Xu Huizu raised his hand and pointed at him: "You immediately lead a team of troops and stop the Prince of Gaoyang under my order!"

My subordinate asked: "I am brave enough to hear the orders of the princes of Yan, what reason should I use to intercept the princes? What should I do if the prince of Gaoyang is a violent prince and dissatisfied?"

Xu Huizu said: "Just use troops to take it down! Let the prince and the third prince go, and only the prince of Gaoyang. If there is anything, I will say it was my order!"

The subordinate had to kneel down on one knee and said, "As for the order!"
Chapter completed!
