A few days later, Dofu found out the origin of the ancient prescription.

"Niangniang, Fang Zi is flowing out of Ji Mansion, and it will never be wrong. The servant who had been on an errand in the Ji Mansion found that it was indeed Master Ji who ordered someone to send him to the Tai Hospital. ”

"What?"

Su Youyi never expected that this matter would be related to Ji Yushen.

At that time, the emperor's epidemic was dying, and if he couldn't be treated in time, he would definitely die, since Ji Yushen let the emperor get sick, why did he let the emperor recover?

It's more than worth it for him.

The only possibility is ......

"Mother, mother?"

Su Youyi suddenly came out of her mind, and it took a while to calm down, "It's nothing, this palace knows." This matter must be kept secret from the outside world and not spread again. ”

"Yes, sissy."

It was only at this moment that Su Youyi understood why Ji Yushen was tied up at that time.

He didn't even think about fighting for his own life.

Because after he handed over the prescription for the treatment of the epidemic, it was tantamount to giving up his own way of life, and then what was the point of fighting for it again?

There is only one reason that can make him make this decision - Su Youyi.

He died for himself.

After seeing this reality clearly, Su Youyi's heart was in turmoil, and her chest was full of sad emotions.

At that time, Su Youyi was still by the emperor's side with a big belly, and personally took care of the emperor's condition, and even didn't sleep for this. Ji Yushen couldn't bear it in her heart, thinking that she had a deep affection for the emperor, so she gave up the idea of killing the emperor in the end.

She couldn't help but regret why she hadn't found out the source of that ancient recipe earlier?

If the reason behind this is found out, will the emperor give up taking his life because of Ji Yushen's timely awakening?

Reason told Su Youyi that the emperor would not give up even if he knew, but the regret in his heart could not be consumed.

If she had known earlier, even if the emperor would not give up, at least she would have met Ji Yushen and made this clear.

Unfortunately, there is no longer a chance.

Thinking of the emperor, who was getting weaker and weaker, Su Youyi pursed her lips.

All this is like karma, what the emperor has now is just the cause he planted himself......

In the previous dynasty, the ministers who had been brewing for a long time finally officially mentioned the matter of establishing a prince.

The emperor was furious and returned to the palace in a fit of rage.

After hearing this, Su Youyi inquired in time, and knew that it was a cadre of ministers headed by Jiang Su who advocated the establishment of the reserve, which is also understandable.

Fortunately, Su Qing, Su Zhiming and others did not wade into this muddy water.

This is also reasonable, instead of letting the emperor appoint the eldest prince as the prince, they prefer to wait until the prince from Su Youyi grows up, preferably the fifth prince, the sixth prince and the seventh prince, even if it is the fourth prince.

Although the emperor is sick and weak, he has not yet reached the point where he must establish a reserve.

The emperor's anger is thought-provoking.

If it weren't for the fact that the dragon body was really lacking, how could the emperor be so angry because of the matter of establishing a prince? It's just that the ministers' twists and turns have poked the emperor's secret heart.

The emperor ignored the courtiers' invitations, and in the dead of night, he asked Su Youyi's opinion.

"The concubines thought they weren't in a hurry, the princes hadn't done it yet. people, the emperor is prosperous again. Didn't the emperor say it before? It was because of the early establishment of the prince that the princes fought with each other. ”

"You're right."

The emperor lay on the bed, covered his mouth and coughed lightly, "The ministers all feel that my body is not as good as before, so they are in a hurry to put forward the words of the prince." I don't like to hear it, and I don't want the princes to fight each other. What's more, the princes are still young, and my fifth, sixth, and seventh princes have not grown up yet, so which one should I choose? ”

mentioned Su Youyi's prince, she kept silent to avoid suspicion.

The emperor took the initiative to ask her, "Do you think that if you really want to establish a prince, which one should you appoint?" ”

Su Youyi thought about it seriously, "The emperor is saying that if the concubine thinks that the prince will be established now, which one should be established?" ”

"Yes."

Su Youyi said: "For now, you don't have to think about it from the four princes down, and even the four princes are too young to read much. ”

The emperor knew that she had never admired Ronghua, but he didn't expect her to do the same to her own son, and she even denied all the princes she had produced in one sentence.

The emperor couldn't cry or laugh, "You don't think about yourself at all, what if I really plan to establish a prince now?" ”

Su Youyi also smiled, "What the emperor said is now, and the concubines are judged by now, not to mention that the emperor didn't say that he would not establish a prince now?" ”

"You go on."

Su Youyi said: "Then we can only consider it from the eldest prince, the second prince and the third prince." On the elderly, on the concubine, and then on the talent, on the whole, it is naturally the most suitable for the eldest prince. ”

If it weren't for the previous words, I am afraid that the emperor would suspect that Su Youyi proposed the eldest prince because the eldest prince had the closest relationship with her.

But with the previous words, the emperor only felt that she was selfless.

After all, didn't the ministers of the previous dynasty think the same way?

According to the old etiquette, if the eldest son is virtuous and not too talentless, he should be named the crown prince.

This was the case during the first emperor's dynasty, and there was an eldest son before the eldest son, but the first emperor directly named the eldest son as the crown prince at first.

However, the prince was later deposed by his own death, which is a later story.

When the emperor saw that she was selfless, he said the truth, "Actually, why don't I know that the eldest prince is good? It's just that he was afraid that the early establishment of the prince would change his heart and let him follow in the footsteps of the crown prince during the first emperor's dynasty. Second, I am afraid that if our fifth, sixth, and seventh princes grow up to be more outstanding in the future, won't I regret it? ”

In the end, the emperor has high hopes for several young princes.

Su Youyi didn't be much happy when she heard this, but said: "The eldest prince is so smart and outstanding, the emperor is still not satisfied?" In my opinion, all the princes are good, and the second prince and the third prince are good, but the eldest prince Zhuyu is in front of him, and he occupies the position of the eldest son. No matter how good the five princes are in the future, they can't be better than these brothers. ”

Although Su Youyi's words are exaggerated, they are not unreasonable.

The emperor is really useful, and the princes are all outstanding, so he doesn't have to worry about the succession of the country, "I don't know how to think of the first emperor recently. I always dreamed that my father was talking to me, but when I woke up from the dream, I couldn't remember what my father said. ”

Su Youyi felt that his words were full of desolation and ominous, so she covered up and said: "I think about the emperor's recent construction of the mausoleum, so I think of the people in the imperial mausoleum, like the first emperor." If the emperor wants to be the emperor first, it is better to choose a day to go to the Baohua Hall to worship and comfort his heart. ”

The emperor thought about it, but still waved his hand, "That's it, I have been tired recently, and I don't have the spirit." Let's talk about it later, and then you can come with me. ”
