Dang~ Dang~ Dang, the door that had been closed in the Prince Consort's Mansion made a slight knock. After a while, the guardian took off the gate and opened the door. Two people in black cloaks appeared quietly in front of the door. It was dim at midnight and could not see their faces clearly. Even the carriage behind was tamed by the coachman without making any strange noises.

Then the man said, "Uh, who are you?"

The man in front of him walked into the door with a panic look and asked hurriedly: "Have the princess and the prince consort rested?"

Then the light of the Prince Consort's Mansion, the man saw an old man with a bloated figure and over 60 years old. "Don't you know?" The man did not stop and ran straight into the mansion, "Mr. Liu! Something big happened!"

"Hey hey, who are you?! Don't force yourself!"

A man behind the back had a slightly gray temple, and a man in his forties followed closely, holding the servant's shoulder and saying, "It's okay! That's what he is like, and he's very busy when he gets to work."

The servant saw the face of the man behind him clearly and said respectfully: "Doctor Han! You are back!"

A man sat in the hall. When he saw someone running in in a hurry, he immediately stood up to greet him. In just a moment, he held the old man's arm. This man was Princess Yunkai's husband and son-in-law Liu Zhan.

"Mr. Liu, the emperor is almost out of reach!" the old man said anxiously.

"Mr. Lu Duan, what's wrong with the emperor?"

"According to my diagnosis, the emperor is afraid that he can't stand tonight." said the middle-aged man behind.

"Brother Han Ji, even you are helpless?"

"Birth, old age, sickness and death are the norm for human beings. The emperor has reached his death. No matter how exquisite the medical skills are, no matter how many magical medicines are, they will be useless."

"Then I will enter the palace with the princess immediately?"

"I'm afraid I can't get in. Now everything in the palace has been blocked by Wang Ji'en. Not many people know that the emperor is seriously ill. We just saw the emperor after Wang Ji'en was not paying attention and disguised himself." The old man said hurriedly.

"How could this happen? Could it be that Wang Ji'en wanted to rebel?!"

Han Ji said: "Rebellion? It is not impossible. He wants to abolish the prince and intends to establish King Zhao Yuanzuo of Chu ascend the throne!"

Liu Zhan said in surprise: "Emperor Brother? The Emperor Brother has been crazy for a long time. He wants to establish an Emperor Brother, but I am afraid that the ministers in the court will not agree."

"It is because the King of Chu is unconscious that Wang Ji'en made him the emperor and could better control the government in the future." Lu Duan analyzed.

"Mr. I have received the news that Wang Jien and the Empress have planned to join forces to establish the King of Chu ascend the throne. Now that all the news in the palace has been blocked, the prince does not know about this. If the emperor dies and the prince is not in front of the palace, Wang Jien and Empress Liu are very likely to ascend the throne. At that time, my Song Dynasty's foundation will fall into Wang Jien's hands." Lu Duan looked a little anxious.

"Wang Ji'en has been quiet for so many years and is finally about to start." Liu Zhan murmured.

"We are here for this." Lu Duan added: "Although Mr. Liu is the prime minister, Wang Ji'en has many gangs in the palace and will not be able to fight against Wang Ji'en. I'm afraid that by then, the prince Wang and the queen, and the ministers who have been colluding with Wang Ji'en, will be able to cover up the sky and tamper with the will." As he said that, Lu Duan knelt down and said solemnly: "It is related to my Song Dynasty foundation, so please be sure to agree to me! If you don't agree, I will kneel down here tonight."

"Mr. Lu, what are you doing?" Liu Zhan helped Lu up and said, "But I promised the emperor that the Jiang League only manages the affairs of the rivers and lakes and will never interfere with the affairs of the court. Besides..." Liu Zhan thought of something, but did not say it. He asked, "What do you want me to do and bring people to support the prince?"

"Liu Zhan, we are not asking you to help the prince ascend the throne in this matter. I just hope you can hold Wang Ji'en tomorrow."

"Brother Han, what do you mean?"

Lu Duan said: "Tomorrow, I will find a way to introduce Wang Ji'en to the imperial edict pavilion. Please be sure to keep him there and never let him leave. If he is not here, his gang members will not dare to act rashly. I will go to the palace to summon the prince and let the prince succeed to the throne. The overall situation will be fixed and they will be fine."

Liu Zhan said with a firm look on his face: "Okay, I understand."

"The prince-consort. This matter is related to the foundation of our Song Dynasty. Please be sure to hold Wang Ji'en back." Lu Duan emphasized.

"Don't worry, Lord Lu, I will do my best!"

"With your son-in-law, the old minister will feel relieved." Lu Duan said: "I need to go to the prince's mansion now and tell the prince about this."

"Wait, Lord Lu, it's late at night, and the prince's side is full of words. If you go there now, you will be able to monitor him by your ears and ears." Han Ji said quickly.

"Doctor Han, do you have any ideas?" Lu Duan asked.

"Liu Zhan, is the princess going to bed?"

"Yun Kai was still playing with his two children just now, so he probably didn't go to bed. I'll go and have a look."

As he said that, Liu Zhan walked to the back of the hall, through the corridor, and towards the room. When he reached the door, the maid outside the door trusted to see him and whispered: "Mr. Concubine, you are here."

Liu Zhan asked, "Hanfeng, is the princess still in the room?"

"The princess is still in the room, but the young master and the lady have already fallen asleep. The princess told someone not to inform him loudly. She ordered me to go into the house and tell me. So I hope you will be a little less loud." Hanfeng said.

"Okay, I understand." He knocked on the door gently.

"Who is it?" asked a soft voice.

"The clouds are open, it's me." Liu Zhan replied softly.

After a while, the door opened gently, and the fragrance floated on her face. She was wearing a light blue dress embroidered with a light blue dress. A woman's face was gentle, her forehead was sweating, and her hair was simply tied into a ball with a headband. She was gently patting the two children sleeping soundly on the bed. This woman was Princess Yunkai of the Song Dynasty. Yunkai looked at Liu Zhan with some tired eyes. She stretched out her index finger of her right hand and placed it in front of her mouth, making a "shhhh" sound, indicating that Liu Zhan should not make too loud noises. Then she covered the thin blanket for the two children on the bed, slowly walked out, and gently closed the door. She said to Hanfeng and others: "The two children have rested, you can take good care of them." Then she turned her head and pointed to the road she was about to walk. Liu Zhan nodded, and the two walked side by side.

Liu Zhan took out a sweat towel from his arms, helped Yunkai brush away the fine sweat from his forehead, and said gently: "Just let the servant do this."

"The children always stick to me, and I'm a little worried when I leave it to the servants."

Liu Zhan nodded.

"What's wrong? Brother Zhan." Yun Kai asked softly.

"Brother Han and Lord Lu are here, and are now in the front hall. It seems that the father's body is almost out of reach."

"Even Brother Han has no choice but to do anything about his father's body!" Yun Kai sighed softly, "The father followed the emperor's great work, took over the Northern Han, fought against the Khitan, unified the Central Plains, and worked hard all his life. Is his destiny coming now?"

"Birth, old age, sickness and death are the norm for human beings. My father and emperor have only a little bit of life, and death may not be terrible to him."

"I understand this, but I'm still a little sad."

When Liu Zhan saw Yunkai's clothes were a little dirty, he thought it was caused by playing with his two children, and said, "By the way, don't you go change your clothes and comb it?"

"It's okay, the important thing is important, and I don't care about that much."

"Uh, OK"

The two walked into the hall, and Yun Kai asked, "Brother Han, Lord Lu, how are you doing?"

Lu Duan bowed and bowed, "The old minister has seen the princess."

Yun Kai said: "What happened when Lord Lu visited the place late at night?"

Lu Duan said what he had just discussed.

"So that's it. No wonder I went to the palace to visit my father a few days ago. The prince kept coming to me to perfunctory and not let me visit my father."

"At present, there is something that must be asked to do." Lu Duan said firmly: "You can tell the prince about this. You and the prince are brothers of the same-sized compatriots. If I go with Doctor Han, I will be too eye-catching. Moreover, the prince must have Wang Ji'en's eyes and ears placed there."

"Yes, you are brothers and sisters with the prince. When you go to see your brother, others will not doubt anything. Moreover, you are just a female person, and there will not be too many people who will be wary of you. So, I just discussed with Lord Lu that it is most appropriate for you to go to." Han Ji said.

"Okay, I'll go there soon tomorrow. I'll tell the prince about this."

Lu Duan took out a sign with the words "Da Jian" written on it and handed it to Yun Kai. "You can just hand this item to the prince tomorrow. It was late at night, and the old minister took his leave first."

Yun Kai returned: "Okay, Lord Lu, please go back early to rest." Lu Duan also signaled to Liu Zhan and Han Ji, then walked out, left the gate, looked around, and after confirming that there was no one, he got on the carriage and left in a hurry.

In the hall, each of them was pondering, and the three of them didn't say a word, not knowing what they should say. This matter is not a joke, and people live for a lifetime, and they all want to seek happiness and comfort. This matter suddenly concerns their own destiny and the future survival of the country.

Yun Kai suddenly said, "Brother Han has been here for so long, and the servants don't serve tea. It's late at night, so Brother Han will stay today, I'll make some arrangements." As he said that, he signaled to the servants to prepare refreshments.

"Are you sure?" Han Ji asked Liu Zhan.

Liu Zhan took a deep breath: "To be honest, I don't know. Wang Jien has a strong internal skills and extraordinary strength. He is as hard as a turtle shell. No one knows where his cover is. My master Hua Tieshan couldn't beat him back then, and I don't know if he can win tomorrow."

"If you do your best, even if you can't win, as long as you can hold him back. As long as Lord Lu helps the prince ascends the throne, he will send someone to pick you up."

"Well, the situation has become like this, and we can only do our best. What's more, it's not just for Yunkai, but now there are Yue'er and Tian'er. Even if we die, I will hold Wang Ji'en back!!" Liu Zhan paused, "And... I promised him too."

After he said it, Liu Zhan and Yun Kai all showed sad expressions on their faces, and Han Ji immediately said, "What are you not dead? Although the leader of Hua did not beat Wang Ji'en, Wang Ji'en did not beat Hua either. Otherwise, if there were villains, how could the leader of Hua die!!! Liu Zhan, now your martial arts are no longer inferior to that of the leader of Hua back then. What can you be afraid of that dead eunuch?"

Liu Zhan suddenly realized: "By the way, I should send a few people to protect Lord Lu tomorrow. If Lord Lu tomorrow acts, someone will inevitably obstruct him. Wang Jien also has many subordinates! How can he do it without sending people to protect him?! I will go out of the city to find Huafeng now."

Han Ji smiled and said, "Don't worry, there is a person who is more suitable than Hua Feng. Li Zhentian."

After hearing this, Liu Zhan felt relieved and said, "Is Zhentian here? It would be great if Zhentian protected Lord Lu. It is worthy of being a doctor, or Brother Han, you are considerate."

"Nothing, it's just a trivial matter."

After a while, several servants prepared some dishes and snacks, and picked up some tea and wine. "Brother Han, let's drink a few cups together today!"

"Okay! I'm drunk today! I don't care about my worries tomorrow!"

"Just drink a few drinks, there will be something big tomorrow!" Yun Kai reminded.

Liu Zhan said: "Hehe, Yunkai, don't worry, Brother Han and I have their own sense of responsibility."
