By the time Shang Zhancheng finished dealing with the matters at Longshou Mountain and returned, it was almost evening.

The news that the prince killed all the assassins on the altar had already spread in the capital, and the people were greatly shocked.

The prince actually killed all the assassins by himself, which was not like what the rumors said.

He was poisoned and won't live long. It seems those rumors are all lies.

At this moment, Concubine Lan was anxiously waiting in the dark room. Until now, she still didn't believe that the news she heard during the day was true.

That kid was clearly poisoned by two strange poisons, how could he have killed so many people?

While he was thinking about it, another door of the dark room opened and He Yuan walked in with a gloomy face.

"Brother Yuan, are the rumors outside true?" Concubine Lan came forward anxiously.

Staring straight at He Yuan, seeing his frowning brows, he had already guessed what was going on.

At the same time, I became even more panicked.

“……………………”He Yuan didn’t say anything.

He glanced at Concubine Lan, then turned around and sat on the bed.

"Brother Yuan, what is going on?" Concubine Lan looked anxious.

He Yuan looked at her again and let out a long sigh without saying a word.

"The prince's poison should be cured!"

When he saw the prince killing everyone in Longshou Mountain today, at first, he thought it was a fake prince and that the prince must have used a substitute again.

But later, when I saw his eyes looking at me, the compelling aura of a superior in those eyes could not have been faked.

She guessed that was the real prince and the poison in him must have been cured. However, as soon as she finished speaking, Concubine Lan denied it.

"Impossible! There's no way to cure that brat's poison." Concubine Lan frowned slightly.

He looked very confident that the ice and fire poison and the exotic beast poison were obtained from outside the domain at a huge cost.

There is no antidote at all, and they have been poisoning the kid for more than ten years without fail.

My body has been corroded by toxins for so many years. Let alone using internal energy, I'm afraid my body has already become an empty shell.

It is even more impossible that he killed all the assassins by himself as rumored by outsiders.

"But everyone saw what happened today." He Yuan frowned and looked at Concubine Lan.

In fact, he couldn't figure this out in his heart. No matter how you consider it, the prince shouldn't be like this now.

But the facts made it impossible for him not to believe it. After all, everyone saw with their own eyes what happened on the altar today.

"That can't be true!" Concubine Lan still looked confident.

Although we haven't been able to catch that brat in these years, we have learned a little bit about him. He was indeed poisoned by those two poisons.

Moreover, his health was getting worse and worse. It was impossible for him to be as serious as people said. She seemed to remember something and looked at He Yuan again.

"Brother Yuan, that must be the kid's substitute." Concubine Lan said with certainty.

From what people outside say, it definitely couldn't be that brat.

Even though that brat had been practicing martial arts since he was young, he couldn't be that powerful. He could kill so many people by himself. No matter how you think about it, it couldn't be that brat.

Seeing Concubine Lan so confident, He Yuan also hesitated.

"……………………"

Could it be that I really had made a wrong judgment and that man was not the real prince?

But that look still makes him feel scared when he thinks of it now. That kind of aura of a superior is definitely not something that ordinary people can learn.

But this was also his own idea. Since Lan'er was so sure, maybe he was overthinking it.

Just as he was thinking about it, Concubine Lan's soft body came closer.

"Brother Yuan, that person definitely can't be that brat. We have to find a way to expose him."

Concubine Lan sat in He Yuan's arms, her arms hooked around his neck, her eyes full of malice.

The kid has been able to hold on for so many years, he is already at the end of his strength. If we think of a way, I guess he won't be able to hold on for much longer.

“……………………”He Yuan said nothing.

He was thinking about Concubine Lan's words for a long time, and a calculating look flashed in his eyes.

"In that case, let's find something for the prince to do."

The queen also heard about what happened at Longshou Mountain, but she didn't quite believe it. After all, Chen'er had just recovered.

Even if he fully recovered, it still seemed unlikely that he could kill all the assassins by himself.

After hearing that the prince had returned, he couldn't wait to come and ask. As a result, he found out that the incident in Longshou Mountain was true.

I was so happy that I couldn't express it in words. I didn't expect that not only did Chen'er recover, but his kung fu became so powerful.

This is all thanks to my daughter-in-law, and I remember Shen Yiyi’s kindness in my heart.

The next morning, Shang Zhanchen washed up and stepped into the court hall, which he had not been to for a long time.

Since he became seriously ill in the past two years, he has been running around outside, and the court is a little unfamiliar to him.

Seeing the prince coming, all the ministers greeted him.

"Prince."

"Yeah." Shang Zhanchen nodded, greeted everyone one by one, and then stood in his seat.

Looking at the prince's upright figure, everyone had different thoughts.

Some were happy. It was a blessing for the people of the Great Shang Kingdom to have a talented person like the prince to succeed the emperor.

There were also those who were worried, namely the Right Prime Minister He Yuan and his party. To them, the more the crown prince was deposed, the happier they would be.

But at this moment, looking at the heroic prince, everyone felt a little worried.

To be fair, among the princes, the one who is capable of handling major matters is none other than the Crown Prince.

But now that they have chosen sides, they should help their master to do things.

Facing everyone's different looks, Shang Zhanchen pretended that they didn't see anything.

Like a magic needle that stabilizes the sea, he stood upright in the hall, but before the emperor came over, he heard flattering voices one after another behind him.

"Second prince!"

When everyone saw the Second Prince, they all bowed and saluted, with such fawning looks, as if he was the master of the hall.

Shang Zhanfei himself also thinks so. In recent years, Shang Zhanchen has rarely appeared in the court due to illness.

He almost forgot about his third younger brother. In addition, many ministers were secretly plotting against him and had already considered themselves the masters of the palace.

Just as I was enjoying the goodwill of the crowd, a hearty laugh came from the door.

"Hahahaha...... I congratulate my brother the Crown Prince on his recovery!"

Shang Zhanbai deliberately emphasized the word "Crown Prince", came up to him, and bowed to Shang Zhanchen again.

He glanced at the people present again. When he came in just now, he saw them surrounding Shang Zhanfei and flattering him. Have they forgotten who is the master here?

Because Shang Zhanbai's voice was too loud, everyone's attention was attracted.

Shang Zhanbai acted as if he saw nothing, and X grinned at Shang Zhanchen.

"Father felt sorry for the crown prince who had just recovered from a serious illness, so he specially prepared a chair. Third brother, you've made me so jealous."

Shang Zhanbai said this while pointing to a chair next to the dragon throne.

He winked at Shang Zhanchen, signaling him to come over and sit down. This was what he had specifically told his father yesterday.
