Yun Dai touched a scar on the back of his hand, and felt a pain in his heart, and tears fell uncontrollably.

She buried her head in his arms and whispered, "Don't say sorry, it's not your fault. I blame myself for being too careless... Your Highness, go out. Don't be angry with the emperor anymore. After all, you are just the prince and can't fight him."

Zhao Yuan held her hand tightened: "Don't be afraid, I won't have anything to do. My father wants to depose me, the prince, but he can't."

Deposing the crown prince is a big deal. If there is no sufficient reason, the royal court officials will not agree.

Besides protecting Yun Dai, Zhao Yuan did not make any substantial mistakes.

He even made great contributions in the northwest.

What's more, the prince has the support of the King of Qin.

The King of Qin was definitely the mainstay of the dynasty. Even though he remained silent about this matter, no one dared to ignore his existence.

As long as he supports the prince for one day, the prince's status will be unshakable.

Although Zhao Yuan was tough with the emperor, he had thought about it from time to time.

Otherwise, the emperor would not be so frustrated.

The current situation is a bit stalemate, and even a delicate balance is maintained.

Now, it depends on who can come out to break this balance.

The emperor was so angry that he had a headache. He went to several imperial doctors to take pulses and prescribe prescriptions.

Gu Yunxiang personally took the bowl and fed him medicine.

When the emperor saw her thin and haggard face, he said with distress: "If you don't lie down properly, why are you going to get up again?"

Gu Yunxiang smiled and said, "I'm fine, I'm so tired when I lie down every day. The emperor is in a bad mood and I'm not feeling well. I'm just a woman and can't help much, but I can still serve the emperor and drink medicine."

"You, I really don't know what to say." The emperor held her hand, "The more you do, the worse I feel. I just want to punish Concubine Yun, but look at the prince, contradict him, I think he is going to rebel!"

"Not to it." Gu Yunxiang smiled softly when she heard this, "The prince is just nervous about the second sister and will not do anything more excessive."

The emperor sighed and closed his eyes.

But I kept thinking about the last sentence Gu Yunxiang said.

What more excessive things will the prince do?

Could it be that he dares to do something ruthless for a woman?

Suspicion is like a seed, and once it is planted, it will slowly sprout.

The emperor was tortured by this idea all night. At dawn, he called his confidant, the commander of the Tiger Guard, and asked him to secretly execute Gu Yundai.

Yun Dai is in prison.

Zhao Yuan didn't leave either, and the two sat face to face, sharing a pot of fish soup.

"Dai'er, the fish soup you made is so delicious." Zhao Yuan held the bowl with a smile on his face.

Yun Dai smiled and said, "I think it tastes good, too."

"When I was in the northwest, I didn't eat well, so I went hunting with my uncle at night, but the roasted ones were really unpalatable..." Zhao Yuan shook his head, "It's still our Daier's cooking skills are good, and it's not as good as anywhere."

Yun Dai smiled and said, "No wonder I saw that you both lost weight."

Zhao Yuan glanced at her: "Have you met the little emperor's uncle?"

"...I've seen it." Yun Dai looked out the door and lowered his voice, "Do you know the fire in Yufu Palace?"

"Hmm?" Could he not know.

"I'll ask the little emperor to help me." Yun Dai whispered.
