The princess traveled through time for a year to help the prince build his kingdom and then left

Three days later, in the imperial capital, Prince Yan’s Palace.

Chu Tiancheng called Zhou Zihan, Zhu Shijie, Song Que and others together to analyze and judge the intelligence recently received from the Southern Country.

Because it involved important events in the Southern Kingdom, he also asked Yan Yi to find Kang Shu.

Song Que carefully read Qin Rubing's diagnosis and treatment plan and felt very optimistic.

"It seems that Nandi's illness is not as serious as rumored. This is really good."

After Song Que said this, Kang Shu was also very excited, "Is the emperor really okay?"

Song Que nodded vigorously, "I believe in the princess's medical skills."

"Then why did the emperor send me to the imperial capital?" Kang Shu asked puzzledly.

Chu Tiancheng took over the conversation, "That's because the Southern Emperor is eager for you to find the lost prince."

Song Que said hurriedly, "I've been looking for it too. I've been looking for it for a long time, but I still can't find it."

Chu Tiancheng smiled and said, "No need to look for it, I've found it."

When Chu Tiancheng told the news that Zuo Qingyun was the son of the Southern Emperor, Uncle Kang was very happy, but Song Que was stunned.

Unexpectedly, Zuo Qingyun was the son of Concubine Shu whom he had been looking for. Song Que regretted so much that he beat his chest and stamped his feet.

He had been in the imperial capital for so many days, and Zuo Qingyun had almost always been under his nose, but he had never realized that this was the son of Concubine Shu whom he had been searching for for many years!

Zhu Shijie was also very ashamed. Song Que had asked him to help find it. Although he also sent some people to look for it, they still couldn't find it.

Who would have thought that it was Zuo Qingyun who was beside him.

When Song Que and Kang Shu heard Chu Tiancheng say that they, father and son, had actually met, they were so excited that they were speechless.

"The spirit of Concubine Shu can finally rest in peace. Your Majesty, don't worry, the father and son are doing well now."

Zhou Zihan was also shocked, but his focus was not on Zuo Qingyun's life experience.

His focus is on:

If Zuo Qingyun is the future heir of the Southern Kingdom, then the current crown prince Xiao Yifei must withdraw from the political stage.

Inside the Southern Kingdom, the royal family of the Southern Kingdom has already given up on him, so no matter how hard he tries, he won't be able to jump around for long.

This information is very important. Xiao Yifei has lost the support of the Emperor of the Southern Kingdom and is destined to fail.

No matter how powerful he looks now and how much military power he holds, he will become a discarded pawn sooner or later.

So, now he is nothing but a paper tiger.

After the Southern Kingdom returns to Zuo Qingyun's hands, peace will definitely be the top priority, which will greatly reduce the military pressure on the border between the Eastern Kingdom and the Southern Kingdom.

This is of course great news for the Ministry of War. In the future, the focus of their military deployment may be placed on the borders with the western and northern countries.

This matter is too important. After he returns, he must report it carefully to his father, the Minister of War Zhou Yuxuan. They need to make plans for the future in advance.

In fact, all of this was Chu Tiancheng's plan.

Zuo Qingyun has the ability to be a king, but he has never had this ambition.

What's more, Zuo Qingyun left the Southern Kingdom due to persecution, and he has always been resentful towards his father who was far away.

It is absolutely impossible for him to take the initiative to return to the Southern Kingdom and fight for the throne.

Chu Tiancheng and Zuo Qingyun's master, Tianhu Zhenren, is a hermit. He has long seen that these two disciples have the fortune to rule the world.

So he focused on cultivating the brotherhood between them, and at the same time, he had in-depth and detailed discussions with both of his disciples.

On the one hand, he asked Zuo Qingyun to go to the imperial capital to assist Chu Tiancheng in achieving great things. On the other hand, he also instructed Chu Tiancheng to facilitate Zuo Qingyun's return to the Southern Kingdom to inherit the throne.

This time, Chu Tiancheng first sent Zuo Qingyun and Qin Rubing to the Southern Kingdom under the pretext of sending Gu Yidao to the Southern Kingdom.

This forced Zuo Qingyun to return to the Southern Kingdom.

However, after returning to Yuncheng for many days, Zuo Qingyun did not go to the palace to visit the Southern Emperor.

After Chu Tiancheng learned about this situation, he thought about it carefully and came up with a plan.

Chu Tiancheng took the opportunity of treating the Southern Emperor and cleverly arranged a task - letting Qin Rubing go to the palace to treat the Southern Emperor.

Qin Rubing knew very well that this journey was full of uncertainties, but she would definitely accept this mission without hesitation.

However, how could Zuo Qingyun let her take risks alone?

He would definitely accompany her to the palace without hesitation.

As a result, Zuo Qingyun was once again forced into the vortex of the palace.

Although he might have felt a little helpless in his heart, his concern and protectiveness for Qin Rubing made it impossible for him to stay out of it.

They are bound to face unknown challenges and crises together.

As for what happened after meeting the Southern Emperor, everything happened naturally.

The Prince’s Mansion in the Imperial Capital.

Chu Tianxing has been in close contact with the Crown Prince of the Southern Kingdom, Xiao Yifei, recently.

Carrier pigeons delivered messages almost every day.

It can be said that half of the intelligence about the Southern Country was provided by Xiao Yifei.

But Chu Tianxing is not stupid. He would not put all his hopes on the prince of the enemy country.

He still arranged a lot of spies in the Southern Country, so the other half of the intelligence came from these spies in the Southern Country.

Putting the two types of information together, Chu Tianxing was confused, because some of the information was contradictory and it was difficult to distinguish the true from the false.

For example, a series of information about the Nandi's illness.

The information provided by Xiao Yifei indicated that the Southern Emperor was seriously ill and in critical condition, and was on the verge of death. It seemed that he did not have much time left.

However, the news sent by Chu Tianxing's spies planted in the Southern Kingdom's Palace was completely different.

Intelligence reports said everything inside the palace was calm as usual, and nothing unusual was happening.

From the outside, everything seemed normal and very peaceful, without any signs of anxiety or grief as if a country was about to lose its king.

According to the intelligence, the eunuchs, palace maids and servants in the palace all work in an orderly manner every day and everything is normal.

Although there was no direct evidence, and although it might be the eunuchs and palace maids acting, Chu Tianxing's sense of smell was still very sharp.

He was still keenly aware that there must be some problem that he had overlooked.

The emperor was dying, how could everyone in the palace not be a little panicked, a little sad, or worried about the future?

This is too strange.

These two contradictory pieces of information made Chu Tianxing wonder, which one is true and reliable?

Was Xiao Yifei's information wrong, or were the spies in the palace misled or hiding the truth?

This uncertainty made the situation confusing and made Chu Tianxing full of worries and speculations about what might happen next.

This means that either Xiao Yifei is lying, or Emperor Nan is putting on a show for Xiao Yifei.

Which situation is it?
