The atmosphere in the palace was tense due to the arrival of some people. I didn't understand what happened, but judging from Yan Xitong's nervous look, the people who came were definitely not good people.
"They are the mortal enemies of Fourth Brother and I." Yan Xitong suddenly said as he passed through the wall.
The situation in the state of Yan is divided into two factions. One is the prince's party, headed by Yan Xiaoqing, and Yan Xitong belongs to the prince's party.
There is also a faction headed by His Highness, which has the Second Prince, the Third Prince, and the Fifth Prince.
These two groups are incompatible with each other, just like the relationship between Xia Yan and Yan Xiaoqing. They both wish that the other party would die quickly.
"All of them are here today, so there must be no good things going on." I said.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw a group of people gathered around the bed. Yan Xitong's face turned pale: "You bastard, you dare to break into the king's dormitory without permission."
Several men in fine clothes gathered around the bed, while Xingfu knelt beside the bed with a sad face, wiping tears with the back of his hand.
I was shocked and rushed to the edge of the bed. I saw Yan Xitong's eyes closed tightly, looking completely dead, but I, who was lying with him, was nowhere to be found.
There was no sign of Pei Yuan in the room. I broke out in a cold sweat. Where had my body gone?
But now the most serious problem is not me, but Yan Xitong. There is a circle of people around the bed, including the imperial physician. Several imperial physicians take turns to check the pulse. After a circle, everyone's face is pale. One of them is kneeling.
On the ground, he said with grief: "Go back to Your Highness, the former king... the former king has passed away."
"What?" Xingfu collapsed on the ground, looking as if he had been hit hard: "It's impossible. Our prince was fine this morning. This is impossible."
His Highness pondered for a moment and said, "Are you sure?"
That tone was not at all worried about whether the imperial doctor's diagnosis was wrong, but worried that Yan Xitong would fake his death to deceive them.
"I guarantee with my life that the former king has returned."
"Brother, this guy's martial arts skills are incredible. He also knows the Turtle Breathing Kung Fu." A man in purple clothes reminded His Highness in a low voice.
"These bastards are so happy to hear the news that the king is dead."
"Hurry up and find Pei Yuan, otherwise you will really be buried as a dead person." I said anxiously.
"Huh, I want to see if these people dare to bury me."
"If you dare to die, others will dare to bury you. What's wrong with that?"
Yan Xitong threw me away, and the hatred in his eyes gathered: "Really?"
Xingfu lay down beside the bed, bursting into tears: "It's impossible, how could our prince die suddenly? It must be a fake, it must be."
"Xingfu, your prince has practiced so many heresies on weekdays, why would he go crazy and die because of the reverse flow of his meridians?" The man who had not spoken a word sneered.
I touched my chin and pointed at the person who was speaking: "Who is this fake? Why do you talk like farts and smell so bad?"
Yan Xitong sneered: "This is my fifth brother, Yan Hui."
It turns out that these people are His Highness Yan Zhan, Second Prince Yan Xi, Third Prince Yan Mu, and Fifth Prince Yan Hui.
"Hey, why is there no Fourth Prince?" I asked.
Yan Xitong looked at me with disdain,
At this time, a shout suddenly came from the door: "The Crown Prince has arrived!"
Yan Xitong curled his lips at me without leaving any trace: "The Fourth Prince is here."
ps: It’s really not my fault, it’s that the system refresh is too slow. I even updated it in advance.
