Evidence of collusion with foreign enemies was found in the Prime Minister Zuo's house, and a group of officials were implicated...

Evidence of private military training was found in Liu Shangshu's house, and everyone including the queen was imprisoned...

For a time, everyone in the capital was in danger.

There is peace in the Imperial Master's Mansion...

Zuo Xiang and Liu Shangshu were beaten so thoroughly that along with many officials, Jiang Yu's name on the list was instantly empty, so Jiang Yu began to use his time at night to review his homework...

Jiang Yu put down his pen and stretched, "Why do you think so many people like to be emperor? I don't think Chu Yuanqi is very happy to be emperor."

Shi Yanzhi was silent for a while and then said: "It depends on what kind of emperor you want to be... If you become an emperor just for power and to satisfy your own desires.

It shouldn't be hard to be a faint king...

But if that happens, the people will suffer, and as for the foolish king who is the culprit...at most he will be reviled by future generations.

But if you want to be like Chu Yuanqi, who works hard for state affairs, always thinking about managing the country well, and burdened with responsibilities, you will naturally feel tired."

Jiang Yu looked at Shi Yanzhi strangely, "Don't you always dislike Chu Yuanqi? Why do you suddenly say so many good things about him?!"

Shi Yanzhi glanced at Jiang Yu indifferently, "I'm just seeking truth from facts."

"Okay." Jiang Yu spread his hands, "But that boy Yuan Qi is really not easy. When I saw him that day, I felt that his dark circles were getting heavier again.

Tsk tsk tsk, I’m so young, I’m afraid my life will be shortened if I do this…”

Shi Yanzhi didn't want to continue Chu Yuanqi's topic, so he lowered his head and read.

Last time Jiang Yao asked him what he wanted to do, his mind went blank because he had been confused for too long.

He also wants to try to find his own path.

Jiang Yao suggested that he read more books, so every time Jiang Yu was busy or reading in the Chang family's library, he would read.

Seeing this, Jiang Yu could only continue to review her lessons, but after a while she raised her head and listened carefully...

Shi Yanzhi noticed it immediately, put down the book and said nervously: "What's wrong?" There couldn't be an assassin, right?

"Chu Yuanqi is here."

…

Under the night sky, Jiang Yu and Shi Yan looked at Chu Yuanqi who was very drunk, and both had headaches.

Beside the courtyard gate, Li An, who was made to stand for stopping Chu Yuanqi from drinking, glanced here from time to time, with distressed and aggrieved eyes...

"I finally caught those two bastards! Haha, I'm happy! So happy!" Chu Yuanqi said and raised his glass to Jiang Yu, "Xiao Yu, I have to thank you!"

Hearing him call him "Xiaoyu", Shi Yanzhi's face suddenly turned dark.

Chu Yuanqi raised his head and finished his drink, then continued: "You don't know, before, I always wanted to be a free prince all my life, eating, drinking and having fun...

With the prince and brother protecting me, I can live a life without any worries.

But God, this evil-hearted person, just doesn’t want to see me well!... Hiccup"

Chu Yuanqi hiccupped, as if he had forgotten what he had said. He narrowed his eyes and waved to Jiang Yu and Shi Yan, "Come, come, come, you two drink with me!"

Jiang Yu waved her hand, "No, Dayao won't let me drink." Mainly because she has a poor drinking capacity.

Shi Yanzhi also shook his head, "I want to protect Xiaoyu, so I can't drink it."

"Tch, it's boring." Chu Yuanqi raised his head and took a deep sip, then turned and shouted to Li An, "Xiao Anzi! Xiao Anzi! Come over and drink with me!"

Li An trotted over and said, "Oh, my Majesty! You can't drink any more. We have to attend court tomorrow. You will feel uncomfortable drinking like this tomorrow..."

"Fuck the morning court, I don't want to go to the morning court! I don't want to approve memorials, I don't want to be the emperor, I don't want to! Father... I don't want to..."

Chu Yuanqi just murmured and fell asleep.

Jiang Yu and Shi Yan looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

Seeing this, Li An sighed and said to Jiang Yu: "Excuse me, Imperial Master, can you let your Majesty spend the night in the Imperial Master's Mansion?

I'll rush back to attend the morning meeting tomorrow morning.

Otherwise, if the admonishment officer finds out that your majesty got drunk regardless of the dragon body, your majesty will be admonished again...

Staying up all night is better than being hungover like this."

What else could Jiang Yu say? He could only smile and say: "Of course, there are so many rooms in the Imperial Prefect's Mansion, you can pick whatever you want."

"Thank you, Imperial Master." Li An hesitated, "I wonder if your majesty can live in the same courtyard with you? In case something happens..."

Finally, under Shi Yanzhi's bad face, Chu Yuanqi lived in the house next door to Shi Yanzhi.

The two of them lost interest and continued reading. After tidying up, they went to rest.

…

Early on the next morning, Chu Yuanqi acted like a normal person again. He got up early and entered the palace before the morning court started...

Jiang Yu finished his morning exercises with full curiosity and then went to the medical clinic.

During lunch, after Jiang Yu and Dr. Chen exchanged information, Jiang Yu asked: "Doctor Chen, do you know the late prince?"

Doctor Chen suddenly said nervously: "Hey, I can't tell you, I can't tell..."

When Jiang Yu saw that he was keeping secrets, it was hard to press him. But just like this, she became more and more curious...

I also tossed and turned during my nap.

After nap time passed, Jiang Yu packed up his things and went to Chang's Mansion with Shi Yanzhi.

…

"Mr. Chang, can you tell me about the former prince?" Jiang Yu asked expectantly.

Chang Baicao glanced at her, "As you were so restless just now, are you thinking about this?"

Jiang Yu laughed guiltily, "Don't I have to meet with His Majesty often? If I know more about things, if there are any taboos, I can avoid them, right?"

Can Chang Baicao still know about her?

Just by reading the story she wrote, I know she is a gossip, so what excuses are there...

Chang Baicao snorted lightly and said angrily: "Didn't your master tell you?"

Jiang Yu was stunned: What does this have to do with the master? Could it be that the death of the first prince had anything to do with the master?

"That's alright, I'll tell you about it, but don't go out and talk about it, lest you get into trouble."

Jiang Yu nodded hurriedly.

"The former prince has a deep connection with your master...

More than ten years ago, your master was still an unknown doctor.

The late prince was only sixteen or seventeen years old at that time. Once when he went hunting in the mountains, he was plotted and fell off the cliff.

He happened to be saved by your master who went into the mountains to collect herbs."

Speaking of this, Chang Baicao clicked his tongue, "Tsk, tsk, tsk, you don't know..."

The former prince fell off the cliff and got hung up on a branch, but his stomach was also cut open by a branch, and there were many wounds on his body, no less serious than the one you rescued last time.

Your master didn't know him either, so when he saw that he was still alive, he treated him like a dead horse and sewed up his broken belly."
