"What if I don't take it?" King Zhao asked, very slowly, "Can I still live?"
The imperial doctor looked up at King Zhao in surprise, then lowered his head and replied respectfully, "Your Majesty, if I stop taking it, I can try my best to remove the remaining poison from the emperor's body, and the emperor can recover, but I don't know how long he can live.
The emperor is in a state of exhaustion. Even if he survives, he will not survive long if he is carefully treated."
King Zhao snorted. He just found out about his biological father. Is he going to die too?
He glanced in the direction of the inner hall and faintly said two words, "Stop the medicine!"
The imperial doctor looked up in shock and saw the purple dragon robe disappearing into the main hall.
Yun Buhui waited at the gate of the palace until dark before he saw King Zhao return to the house. He was very tired and looked more stern. When King Zhao saw her, before Yun Buhui said anything, he raised his hand and said, "Don't say anything."
, I don’t want to hear anything.”
Yun Buhui smiled gently, "Your Majesty, I'm just worried about you. I came here to have a look. I have no other intention."
The twilight enveloped him with a thick and tragic layer, as if he was abandoned in another world. Yun Buhui looked at him worriedly. King Zhao raised his head and looked at the dusk sky, silent for a long time.
Yun Buhui stood with him until the sunset, and King Zhao said, "I will go to Ningzhou tomorrow."
After he finished speaking, he entered the palace. Zhou Zheng followed him in. Yun Buhui sighed and closed his eyes in despair. He still hasn't changed his mind. He still wants to go to Ningzhou. Is this battle really unavoidable?
Yun Buhui took Bingyue back to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Li Yue was already waiting. Yun Buhui asked him to inquire about today's assassin. Li Yue had already found out clearly, "It's the assassin sent by the prince."
"you sure?"
"Yes." Li Yue said, "It's absolutely true."
Yun Buhui rubbed his forehead with a headache. Thinking of the prince he had met, his heart suddenly sank. The prince and King Zhao... How could he be so stupid to think that killing King Zhao would solve all this? How could this be possible?
?
"How did King Zhao deal with it?"
"I heard that the prince was imprisoned in the heavenly prison. The prince has not yet made a decision on how to deal with it." Li Yue said, "The second young master said that the capital is too dangerous, and he wants you to go back to Fengcheng with him."
Yun Buhui shook his head, she couldn't go back yet.
At least, not now.
Early the next morning, Yun Buhui accompanied Lin Wan'er to have breakfast and then went to Ruixinlou. Today, King Zhao led his troops to leave the capital. Phoenix Avenue is the main street, and they will definitely pass by this avenue. Lin Wan'er said, "Sooner or later, this battle will happen."
It’s unavoidable, don’t regret it, you tried your best.”
"No, it can definitely be avoided!" Yun Buhui said. She believed that it could definitely be avoided. This battle, the life-and-death battle between King Zhao and Cheng Mubai, should be avoided. There should be no war in the Southern Kingdom.
Lou Kaiyang also went to Ruixin Tower. He stayed with Yun Buhui in the capital. Lin Wan'er said, "Buhui, will you follow your brother back to Fengcheng?"
Yun Buhui glanced at Lou Kaiyang and shook his head gently. Lou Kaiyang held her hand and said, "Brother will accompany you."
King Zhao ordered troops in the capital, and 30,000 men rushed to Ningzhou. Black armors poured in from the direction of the school grounds to Phoenix Avenue like a tide. The swords in the sun sparkled with cold light, like the sharpest murder weapons, about to drink blood to curb the edge.
, she seemed to be able to see the battlefield of gold and iron horses. King Zhao was riding a maroon horse, wearing silver armor, holding a simple sword in his hand, majestic. Yun Buhui suddenly remembered the afternoon many years ago,
A young man in armor stood in the back garden of her house, admiring the plum blossoms. The plum blossoms fell on him, a combination of softness and coldness. She was fascinated by the sight and asked her father who the young man was.
My father said that he was the crown prince of Zhao, and his name was Zhao Che.
She has remembered this name from then on. She has never called him by his name, but she knows his name and remembers it well. I am afraid that many people in the world have forgotten his name. The first thing that comes to mind when mentioning him is King Zhao.
As if sensing something, King Zhao passed by the Ruixin Building and glanced at the second floor. After only one glance, he looked away and led the soldiers to move forward. Yun Buhui sighed. She had to find a way to stop this, stop this.
The outbreak of war.
No one would have thought that when King Zhao left Beijing, he did not hand over the real power to his cousin, but instead asked Prime Minister Beitang Zhennan to supervise the country and temporarily take charge of state affairs. Beitang Zhennan himself was confused and asked King Zhao, but he did not answer.
There are two factions in the court, the old and the new. One faction maintains the imperial power, and the other supports King Zhao. Beitang Zhennan has never revealed his intentions. Everyone knows that he is loyal to the Cheng family and has a grudge with King Zhao.
He thought that Beitang Zhennan belonged to the emperor, but he didn't expect that King Zhao gave him power. Those who maintained the imperial power were furious.
Yun Buhui is not surprised. This is a very good decision. Beitang Zhennan is the only person in the court who has no selfish motives. He only wants to benefit the people wholeheartedly. He has no ambition to become emperor. Now the emperor is seriously ill.
, the prince was banned, King Xuan was imprisoned, and King Zhao led his troops to Ningzhou. There was no one in charge of the overall situation in Beijing. The talent and reliability of Beitang Zhennan were what King Zhao valued most, which is why he never got rid of Beitang.
The reason for Tang Zhennan.
"You must know something, Yun Buhui, what is going on, how could he hand over the capital to me." Beitang Zhennan asked Yun Buhui, he was puzzled as to what kind of trap King Zhao had arranged for him.
Yun Buhui said, "He handed over the capital to you because he trusted you. Only you can stabilize the entire capital. This is the center of power in the South. People want peace and stability. Now that he is gone, only you can do it."
.”
"That's nonsense." Beitang Zhennan said.
Yun Buhui said, "Two days later, I will also take Bingyue and Liyue to Ningzhou. Before that, Prime Minister, I want to see the emperor."
"You want to see the emperor?" Beitang Zhennan narrowed his eyes and said suddenly, "What exactly are you hiding from me? If you don't tell me clearly, I won't let you enter the palace."
Yun Buhui thought for a moment and smiled lightly, "King Zhao is the emperor's biological son. That's why he handed the capital to you, because he no longer plans to kill his father. If you don't believe it, you can ask the emperor.
Royal Physician, I guess he must have asked the Royal Physician to take good care of the Emperor's health."
Beitang Zhennan and Lin Wan'er were extremely surprised, "How is this possible? If he is the prince, why would he lead troops to Ningzhou? He can inherit the throne justifiably."
"He just couldn't face the fact, so he chose to escape and would rather fight this war according to the original plan. Mr. Prime Minister, what we have to do is to stop this war. This is a completely avoidable war." Yun Bubu
Regret said, "None of us want to see lives in ruins."
Beitang Zhennan fell into deep thought, and Yun Buhui said in a deep voice, "The emperor must know this matter. Only he knows and he believes that this matter can have a happy ending."
On the fifth day after King Zhao led his troops to leave the capital, Yun Buhui set out from the capital. The emperor took Wu Shi Powder for many days and even became disoriented. He had no idea what Yun Buhui was talking about. The imperial doctor helped him nurse his health until the third day.
After five days, he finally regained consciousness.
Yun Buhui told the emperor everything she knew about King Zhao, including King Zhao's childhood, old King Zhao's conspiracy, Lou Yiyi's death, Mu Dan's death, and Lou Yiyi's suicide note. She especially emphasized King Zhao's
childhood, and the father-son relationship between him and the old King Zhao. He tried to use this to impress the emperor. The emperor did not believe this fact at first. Lou Yiyi’s suicide note and Mudan’s letter were both kept by King Zhao, and Yun Buhui did not
Extra evidence proved that King Zhao was the emperor's son. Yun Buhui could tell from the emperor's expression that he had indeed had a relationship with King Zhao's mother. Yun Buhui didn't know about the grudges of the previous generation, and King Zhao
On the eighth day of his birthday, the emperor knew that if he wanted to investigate what happened back then, he would always find clues.
Beitang Zhennan said that the emperor did not believe that King Zhao was his son. He thought it was a story made up by Yun Buhui, but too many coincidences made him suspicious. The most important point was that Zhao
The king spared his life. If he continued to take Wu Shi San, he would not have much time left. The emperor was doubtful and did not admit that he was his son, nor did he deny that he was his son.
Yun Buhui didn't try to persuade him, because King Zhao's troops had arrived in Ningzhou and started fighting with Cheng Mubai's army. She didn't have so much time to spend in the capital. She originally wanted to go to Ningzhou with the imperial edict to stop this war.
In the midst of the war, the emperor closed the door to thank guests, and spent all day in his bedroom, as if reminiscing about the past. Beitang Zhennan said that she had to come up with something more convincing, but Yun Buhui couldn't come up with it.
She was sure of one thing, the emperor would definitely recognize King Zhao as his son, even if he had doubts in his heart, so Yun Buhui took Bingyue and Liyue and set off for Ningzhou. Lou Kaiyang could not dissuade her, so he could only follow her.
After returning to Fengcheng from Kaiyang, Yun Buhui went to Ningzhou.
One person takes the water route and the other takes the land route.
Lou Kaiyang originally wanted to go to Ningzhou with her, but he was afraid that something would happen to her on the way alone, but Yun Buhui brought Bingyue and Liyue, and there were people in Fengcheng who needed him, so Lou Kaiyang did not go with her.
Go to Ningzhou.
The journey was bumpy, and the closer we got to Ningzhou, the more desolate it became, and the smell of war became stronger. Yun Buhui thought of his father who always said that he wished all wars happened in his time, and his daughter could live in peace. He
Fighting for a lifetime and serving the country with loyalty, just for the sake of their children living in the beauty of peace. That is the greatest wish of a soldier. He hates war, so Yun Buhui also hates war.
Every conscientious general will not like war, Yun Buhui thought, and King Zhao will definitely not like it either.
