The sickly son died young? After the marriage exchange, I will bring prosperity to his entire clan f

"Moreover, Guo Miaomiao said that she wanted to become sisters with us, and we had saved her before, so it's unlikely that she was lying to us."

"You just said that Su An pities Guo Miaomiao. Is it possible that this is a conspiracy? Or for other reasons, even if Su An wanted to pity others, he should have chosen to sympathize with the Tapo people first instead of Da Shun."

Ling Silang agreed with this statement, saying, "Da Shun and the Tapo have not had a good relationship over the years."

"What do we do now? Can Su'an be saved?"

"Yes, I can completely remove the poison from his body, but do we need to?" Ling Silang himself was now starting to have doubts.

Du Mingxian didn't know what to say. "We told Guo Miaomiao to prepare the medicine first. We've already sent a message to the Crown Prince about this. Why don't we just ask him what he thinks?"

Ling Silang pondered for a long time, "Let's ask Wen Yibin first. He's been in officialdom longer than us and knows more than we do."

"it is good."

Ling Silang had to go to work the next day, so Du Mingxian went to the Wen family's house by herself.

Wen Yibin's shift schedule is relatively humane. As an official with power, he will also go out to investigate cases when they come up, so he will not stay at the duty station all the time.

Only after Du Mingxian arrived did she instruct the housekeeper to send someone to deliver a message.

Wen Yibin had no official business today and was idle at home, so he had arranged to have tea outside for a long time. When he heard from the servants that Du Mingxian had arrived, he hurried home.

"You came to see me in broad daylight, is there something you need?" Wen Yibin saw that Du Mingxian's expression wasn't very anxious, so he knew it wasn't anything urgent and was relieved.

Du Mingxian glanced at him and asked, "Uncle, has something happy happened to you lately? You seem different."

"No, it's still the same as before."

Du Mingxian stopped asking. She sensed that her uncle seemed a little different. "Uncle, there's something I want to say."

"You said."

Du Mingxian recounted the events, and Wen Yibin listened without replying. He remained in deep thought for a long time before finally speaking, “Your caution is correct. In recent years, the Tapo people have been quite rampant in Da Shun. The Emperor has a plan to eliminate them, but he has not yet found out who the biggest boss behind them is, so he has not taken any action.”

"In the next couple of days, the Emperor will issue an order to abdicate, and the Crown Prince will inherit the throne. There will be a lot to do. As for the matter of the Dharma Master... you still need to tell the Crown Prince."

"It's good to be careful when it comes to Tharpoon. If something really happens, you won't make a mistake."

Du Mingxian also felt that this matter should be told to the Crown Prince. "The Emperor is going to abdicate, and the Crown Prince must be very busy lately. I don't know if he will have time to see us."

"It should be possible; the Crown Prince values ​​you all highly."

"okay, I get it."

The two chatted for a short while before Du Mingxian left. They waited until Ling Silang returned in the evening, had dinner, and then went to find the Crown Prince together.

They all went through specific side gates to find the prince. The gatekeepers knew they had arrived and could go straight in, so they led the people inside.

The Crown Prince returned early today. When he heard from the servants that Du Mingxian and Ling Silang had arrived, he was quite surprised and had them brought directly to his study.

"Is there something important that you're here so late?"

"Your Highness, we have something to report."

"Tell me about it," the Crown Prince said, gesturing to a chair. "Sit down and tell me."

Du Mingxian briefly explained the situation: "We knew Guo Miaomiao before, and I didn't think much of it at first. But now that I think about it, things seem a bit strange, so I wanted to come and report to Your Highness."

The prince gently stroked the jade thumb ring on his thumb for a long time before turning his gaze to Ling Silang. "Can you completely cure his poison?"

"Yes, we can prescribe some medicine and take care of you. You can clear the toxins from your body in less than a month. As for the weakness, you will need to take better care of yourself."

The Crown Prince nodded slightly, and after a while said, "Well then, since you can help him detoxify, then do so. However... you still need to do one more thing."

"Your Highness?" Ling Silang had a guess in his mind.

"Poison him again, a kind of poison that no one else can detect, one that requires a catalyst to activate, and one that only you can cure." The Crown Prince spoke with certainty, without asking Ling Silang if he knew how, and simply gave him the order.

Ling Silang frowned. He had been thinking about this matter today. If he were the Crown Prince, he would have done the same, but this poison... was difficult to administer.

Seeing that Ling Silang remained silent, the Crown Prince questioned him, "What's wrong? Is it that you can't bring yourself to use this kind of poison, or that you can't bring yourself to do it?"

"Your Highness, this poison takes time to develop, and I... I may not be able to concoct it in a short time."

"Then we'll wait until you've concocted the poison before giving him the antidote. The Tapo Lama has been rampant these past few years. We can't just stand by and watch their people come to the capital. If they don't have any bad intentions, fine, but what if they do?"

The Crown Prince sighed, “My father has been unwell recently, and I don’t have the energy to deal with the affairs of the shaman.”

Ling Silang understood and immediately stood up, clasping his hands in greeting. "Your Highness, this humble subject understands."

Just then, the Crown Prince's personal attendant rushed in, "Your Highness, news has come from the palace that His Majesty is dying."

"What? How could this be?" The crown prince was so shocked that he stood up abruptly, knocking over the teacup on the table. Without caring about anything else, he walked straight out.

Du Mingxian felt a sharp pain in her head and suddenly thought of her previous life. Thinking back, the Emperor's death was also very suspicious. The Crown Prince died first, and not long after the Crown Prince's death, the Emperor, who had always been in good health, suddenly contracted a serious illness and died.

This was the news she heard after arriving in the capital; she didn't know the specifics.

However, it is said that when the emperor was critically ill, someone plotted a rebellion and forced the emperor to abdicate. It was the third prince who remained calm in the face of danger, mobilized his men, and captured the rebels. When the emperor learned that the rebels had been captured, he immediately issued an edict to the third prince before he breathed his last.

Could this be a conspiracy? Wen Yibin said today that the Emperor will abdicate in the next couple of days.

Lord Wen is the Emperor's confidant and knows a thing or two about everything. What Wen Yibin said must be true, so some people can't wait any longer.

By the time Du Mingxian realized what was happening, the Crown Prince was already almost at the main gate. Without thinking, Du Mingxian rushed out and called out to him just as he was about to step out of the main gate.

"Your Highness."

The crown prince turned around, his face full of impatience and a hint of forbearance.

"Your Highness, I have something to say."

The Crown Prince wanted to leave, but for some reason, he stopped and turned back to look at Du Mingxian, his tone very unpleasant, "You'd better have something urgent to attend to."

Du Mingxian deliberately lowered her voice: "Your Highness, His Majesty's health has always been very good, without any illness, and imperial physicians come to check his pulse every day. Even if he has been unwell these past two days, it has only been a minor issue. How could it suddenly become this serious?"
