In order to compete for the emperor's favor and seek to join the court and participate in politics, the eldest prince even did not hesitate to harm his body and took forbidden drugs, which even damaged the foundation of his body. From now on, he can only stay in bed all day long, otherwise he will die soon.
The news swept through the entire capital like a tornado. Even the people far away from the court knew that the eldest prince was in failing health.
After Shi Dinghao heard the news, he immediately came and told Shi Fuxin.
Shi Fuxin was silent for a moment: "Someone wants to completely eliminate the eldest prince's path to the throne."
The court officials knew that the eldest prince was in poor health, so they would not put their treasure on him; as for the people, they just wanted to live a good life. Only a healthy king can make the country stronger, so naturally they would not support a sick man.
Without anyone's support, even if the eldest prince is the emperor's eldest son, even if he is gifted by nature, he is just a lone wolf with a broken leg and cannot make any big waves.
Shi Dinghao: "Sister, we have to find a way to help the eldest prince."
Shi Fuxin looked at her brother in surprise: "Why do you think so?"
Shi Dinghao said matter-of-factly: "He is your apprentice. Your apprentice has been bullied. As masters and uncles, we are not allowed to support him."
Shi Fuxin: "Then what can you do?"
Shi Dinghao got stuck.
Shi Fuxin: "If you are capable, I have no objection to you helping him, but do you have someone who can suppress the rumors outside, or do you know many officials who can speak for the eldest prince in the court?"
Shi Dinghao: "..."
Shi Fuxin: "The fights between the princes and the undercurrents in the court are not something we can intervene in at the moment. How can we help him if we don't have anything we want?" She said, patting him on the shoulder.
"Kuroro, the most important thing in life is to be brave. People who love to be brave are best at doing bad things with good intentions. In the end, they harm others and themselves."
"If you want to protect the people around you, you need strong strength."
Shi Dinghao frowned: "Then we don't do anything?"
Shi Fuxin shook her head: "Of course not. We can't get involved in royal matters, but I can still help with the eldest prince's illness."
With that said, he walked to the desk, picked up the letter he had written a long time ago, turned to look at Shi Dinghao, "Let's go, let's go into the imperial city."
Hearing this, Shi Dinghao's eyes suddenly lit up: "Sister, are we going to the First Prince's Mansion?"
Shi Fuxin said nothing and walked out of the house.
Shi Dinghao quickly followed up: "Sister, will it be too conspicuous if we go to see the eldest prince during the day? Otherwise, why don't we go at night?"
Shi Fuxin stopped and looked at the silly brother speechlessly: "The imperial city is heavily guarded. There are guards patrolling outside day and night. There are experts inside each government to guard the courtyards. If you explore the imperial city at night, you can ensure that you are not discovered.
?There are many people entering and leaving the imperial city during the day, so it is not easy to be suspected."
Shi Dinghao nodded and followed Shi Fuxin quickly out of the uncle's residence.
...
At the west gate of the imperial city, looking at the sword-carrying guards at the gate and the imperial guards who were each one meter tall on the city wall, Shi Dinghao finally agreed with Shi Fuxin's words.
The imperial city is so heavily guarded that even if they are good at lightness skills, they are really not suitable for coming to visit at night.
The two siblings did not go directly to the Grand Prince's Mansion. Instead, they wandered around and bought some New Year gadgets for the occasion, and then slowly walked to the street where the Grand Prince's Mansion was located.
"Sister, Zhanfu's carriage."
In front of the eldest prince's palace, a carriage with a very personal style was parked.
Other carriages are either luxuriously decorated or elegant and exquisite, but in order to show off his unique temperament, Ke Zhanfei made his carriage body black with two white lanterns hung on the front.
It was fine during the day, but at night, everyone who saw the carriage hid in a hurry.
"Sister, we don't have a short time to return to Beijing. When are we going to visit Senior Brother Zhan?"
Shi Fuxin looked at the black and white carriage and thought of her unreliable facial mask master and her second senior brother who was straightforward but very capable of teasing people. She no longer expected her senior brother to be a normal person: "Don't worry,
When we need Senior Brother's help, it won't be too late to pay us a visit."
Shi Dinghao nodded in agreement: "Senior Brother Zhan has always only listened to the emperor's words. Now that he has come to the eldest prince's residence, it seems that the emperor still cares about the eldest prince."
Shi Fuxin didn't say anything. At this moment, she was thinking about whether Senior Brother Cheap knew about the eldest prince's poisonous body.
On the other side, in the Prince's Mansion, there are also people who are worried about this problem.
"Your Highness, Divine Doctor Zhan has already gone to the eldest prince's residence. Will he find out that the eldest prince has not taken banned drugs?" Wei Yichen looked at the prince anxiously.
The prince slowly brewed tea and poured a cup for Wei Yichen with a smile: "Yichen, don't be so impatient when things happen."
Wei Yichen looked at the prince who was calm and composed, calmed down, walked over and sat down, and asked: "Your Highness, what is going on with the eldest prince's illness?"
The prince smiled: "Sick? Who said he was sick?"
Wei Yichen was surprised: "You're not sick, how can you vomit blood?"
The prince calmed down his expression and said calmly: "Brother... was infected by the heart-eating Gu. On the day my father sealed the pen, someone activated the mother-gu, and that's why eldest brother vomited blood."
Wei Yichen looked startled when he heard about Gu.
The prince looked at the astonished Wei Yichen, lowered his eyes, was silent for a while, and then said: "As long as the poisonous insect is not activated, it will remain in a dormant state, and there will be nothing strange about the person who has been poisoned."
"No matter how good Doctor Zhan is, he would never know that there is a worm sleeping in my brother's heart. At most, he would think that he has a heart disease."
"My brother has never had heart disease before. There are many explanations for why he suddenly suffered from it. Taking banned drugs is obviously the best reason."
Wei Yichen looked at the prince: "No wonder His Highness is so calm and composed." After a pause, he couldn't help but ask, "Will the eldest prince die?"
The prince said: "As long as he stays in the palace to recuperate peacefully and doesn't come out to compete for his father's attention, who will care about him as a sick boy."
Wei Yichen didn't speak. Although his upbringing made him feel that poisoning was a despicable method, when he thought that the prince and the eldest prince were incompatible, he suppressed the discomfort in his heart.
...
Across the street from the First Prince's Mansion, Shi Fuxin and Shi Dinghao were holding candied haws in one hand and a candy man in the other, eating while looking at the closed First Prince's Mansion.
"Sister, someone is here."
A carriage stopped outside the gate of the First Prince's Mansion. Soon, two middle-aged men got off the carriage and entered the First Prince's Mansion together.
"I actually went in."
Shi Fuxin glanced at the wooden sign hanging on the carriage: "The Zhou family, the future in-laws of the eldest prince, can naturally enter."
When Shi Dinghao heard that it was the Zhou family, he immediately said: "The Zhou family must have come to inquire about the eldest prince's physical condition. Many people outside are saying that the eldest prince is so ill that he cannot even hold the wedding in February."
Shi Fuxin was noncommittal, thinking about it, the eldest prince was seriously ill, and the most anxious people must be the Zhou family who were engaged to the eldest prince.
No matter how much the Zhou family desires power, they would not want their girl to become a widow as soon as she gets married.
Not long after the Zhou family entered, the door of the eldest prince's mansion opened again, and a handsome middle-aged man in his thirties, wearing a long-sleeved robe and looking a bit fairy-like, walked out.
"Sister, that's Senior Brother Zhan, he looks really handsome."
Shi Fuxin had already guessed that Senior Brother Cheap would not be too bad looking. You must know that her master was a perfect face control. Even the straightforward Second Senior Brother, his appearance was quite good, let alone inherit the mantle.
Big brother.
Behind Zhan Fei, Gao Changshou followed.
Gao Changshou hunched over, politely put Zhan Fei on the carriage, watched the carriage leave, and then turned back to his home.
"Let's go, we're going back too."
"Leaving now?"
"The letter has been sent. If you don't want to leave, do you want to stay and celebrate the New Year?"
"Sister, when did you take action? Why didn't I notice?"
"Kuro, you are slacking off. After you go back, practice your eyesight and reactions with me."
In the main courtyard of the eldest prince's mansion, when Gao Changshou found an extra letter on his waist, even the Zhou family didn't bother to receive it and hurried into the inner room.
"Your Highness, look quickly."
The eldest prince could now sit up. He received the letter from Gao Changshou and his eyes widened when he saw the words on the envelope.
"My dear disciple, please give me your blessing!"
Looking at these four words, the eldest prince quickly looked at Gao Changshou: "Did Doctor Zhan give you the letter?"
Gao Changshou shook his head with uncertainty on his face: "I don't know when this letter was placed on my body."
The eldest prince opened the letter and read it without asking any more questions.
"Dear dear disciple, you have suffered a lot. I know you have suffered a lot, but my heart aches for you. My dear disciple, don't be afraid. There is still a master behind you, and the master loves you."
The eldest prince: "..."
"I already know your physical condition. It's not a big deal. I have a good friend who is very skilled in medicine. If you find an excuse to go out on New Year's Eve or New Year's Day, he will treat you."
"Good disciple, Master misses you very much, but reality does not allow it. Otherwise, Master would have come to see you long ago. I know that you also want to see Master, but don't be in a hurry. We will definitely meet when the time comes.
I’ll give you a surprise.”
"Don't feel any psychological pressure. Your heart problem is not a big problem. As soon as I take action, the medicine will cure it immediately."
"Okay, I won't say any more. If I have anything to do with your senior uncle, he takes you in for me. He has to be responsible for you. Don't be embarrassed to speak."
"Good disciple, have a happy New Year. I hope you love your master."
The eldest prince folded the letter back with a dull face. After a while, he opened it again and started reading.
Gao Changshou stood aside, watching the eldest prince open the letter and fold it back, and he was very curious about what was written in the letter, which made His Highness so uneasy.
"Gao Changshou..."
"The old slave is here."
The eldest prince looked at the only person he could trust in front of him with a complicated face.
Gao Changshou's heart skipped a beat: "Your Highness, what happened?"
The eldest prince: "I discovered that Divine Doctor Zhan may have really found a master for me."
Doctor Zhan is a bit unreliable, and his words are very disrespectful, but he will never say such disgusting things like the person who wrote the letter.
Gao Changshou was stunned for a moment and looked at the letter in the eldest prince's hand, as if he wanted to read it.
The eldest prince noticed his gaze, quickly folded the letter, put it back into the envelope, and then pressed the letter under the pillow.
Such a disgusting letter must not be seen by the second person.
In the past, he thought that Divine Doctor Zhan had randomly found someone to pretend to be his master, but after reading the letter today, he knew that this master should most likely be real.
Although Gao Changshou felt that it was useless for the eldest prince to have an extra master, he still said happily: "This is a good thing. Your Highness also has a master."
Master......
Thinking of the straightforward but caring words in the letter, the eldest prince's eyes flashed, and the frowns frowning due to illness relaxed a little.
"Isn't the Zhou family here? You go and receive them."
The eldest prince lay down on the bed again. After Gao Changshou left the room, he took out the letter under the pillow, opened it again and started reading.
After experiencing the loss of his mother, the eldest prince was very wary of others. According to the past, he would not be easily attracted to this master whom he had never met before.
However, at this moment, he was first framed and then learned that he had a heart disease. There were also various rumors that he was about to die. Although the emperor sent Dr. Zhan to treat him, he did not show up to visit him.
The eldest prince was sick, helpless, and felt like he had been abandoned. At this moment, he felt a glimmer of hope for the master who suddenly sent a letter, making him feel that he was not alone.
He had not felt this kind of care from his elders for a long time.
Master......
The eldest prince still has doubts in his heart. For example, Divine Doctor Zhan has never mentioned his master in front of him. Because of this, he was so sure that the so-called master who sent him letters a few years ago was hired by Divine Doctor Zhan to deal with him.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Isn’t the relationship between Master and Doctor Zhan very good?
He had chest pain and vomited blood two days ago. The master who was far away in the northwest border also knew about it and asked a good friend to diagnose and treat him.
It seems that Master is paying attention to me, and he is a bit mysterious.
He is only allowed to go out on New Year's Eve or the first day of the Lunar New Year without specifying a place. Is this because he is sure that his friend can find him?
After tossing and turning for a while, when Gao Changshou came back from seeing off the Zhou family, the eldest prince immediately said: "Get ready, I'm going to Xiangguo Temple to burn incense on New Year's Eve."
Gao Changshou quickly stopped him: "Your Highness, no, your current body..."
The eldest prince laughed at himself: "It's okay. To others, just say that I miss my mother and I want to go to Xiangguo Temple to offer incense to her."
Nowadays, he is particularly curious about the master he has never met before. Perhaps, he can find out what kind of person he is through his master's friends.
Gao Changshou saw that the eldest prince had made up his mind, so he could only make preparations worriedly.
...
Many people in the eldest prince's palace are paying attention. Many people are a little unhappy when they learn that the eldest prince is going to Xiangguo Temple to offer incense on New Year's Eve.
"Why don't you know how to calm down? Why don't you just stay at home and rest?"
"Your Highness, would you like to..."
"No, don't cause trouble during the Chinese New Year. The boss just vomited blood not long ago. If anything happens again, my father will definitely investigate strictly."
"Just send more people to keep an eye on it."
Xiangguo Temple is a royal temple, and ordinary people are not qualified to come in and burn incense. Therefore, the entire temple is a bit deserted.
On New Year's Eve, the eldest prince came to Xiangguo Temple early, had a vegetarian meal at noon, and rested until mid-afternoon before leaving.
In the carriage back to the imperial city, the eldest prince didn't look very good because he didn't see any of his master's friends.
Although he was a little disappointed, the eldest prince decided to come out again tomorrow. Just as he was about to give instructions to Gao Changshou outside the carriage, the carriage jolted, and then a strange fragrance entered his nose. Then, the eldest prince felt his eyesight turn dark.
Half an hour later, the carriage stopped outside the gate of the eldest prince's mansion on time.
"Your Highness, we are home."
Gao Changshou shouted twice outside the car. Seeing that the eldest prince did not respond, he quickly opened the door. He was relieved when he saw the eldest prince sleeping soundly inside.
In the middle of the night, the eldest prince woke up and called Gao Changshou in as soon as he woke up.
Hearing from Gao Changshou's mouth, the eldest prince was a little surprised and frightened because he never noticed anything strange on the way back home.
"Your Highness, I found this when I was changing your clothes."
Gao Changshou handed a letter to the eldest prince.
The eldest prince quickly took the letter and read it.
"The heart-eating poison has been eliminated!"
Looking at the five words on the letter, the eldest prince was shocked.
It turns out he was infected by a worm!
Gu insect... The eldest prince felt some chills running down his spine when he thought that someone in the royal family used such vicious and vicious methods to deal with him, while the person was still hiding in the dark. Latest website:
