Zhang Zong stayed in Ziwei Palace for most of the day until Li Hong woke up in the afternoon and his health recovered almost, he left the imperial city with confidence. However, after getting on the carriage, Zhang Zong's expression became solemn.

Li Hong did not take the medicine as he told him, but secretly took the medicine in private, which caused his body to develop resistance. Therefore, when the disease occurred, he could only increase the dosage of the medicine. If this continues, his body's resistance will become more and more serious until nitroglycerin will no longer have any effect on his disease.

Thinking of this, Zhang Zong couldn't help but sigh. He understood Li Hong's difficulties. He was not allowed to calm down and recuperate, either before or now. However, Li Hong's physical problems are facts. If they are not controlled, if Li Hong suddenly falls down, the consequences...

"What a dead knot!" Zhang Zong sighed again and whispered in a low voice. Now he finally realized what it feels like to be in a dilemma. This is the case with Li Hong. Even though he knew that frequent use of nitroglycerin is the way to die, he could only choose this path.

It was getting late, and Zhang Zong, who had left the imperial city, did not go to the martial arts school, but went home directly. However, because of Li Hong's affairs, he was very distressed and didn't even eat much supper, and then locked himself in the study.

Taiping and Ning'er and others both saw that Zhang Zong had something to do, but they usually just asked Zhang Zong about his affairs outside, so after dinner, they asked Wan'er to go to the study because Zhang Zong would sometimes discuss things outside with Wan'er.

"Young Master entered the palace today?" Wan'er brought tea into the study room, and then asked.

"How did you know that I entered the palace?" Zhang Zong asked in surprise when he heard this.

"Young Master was in a bad mood when he came back today, so I asked the coachman. When I learned that the young master rushed into the palace first, and when he came out, he looked worried. I guess something happened in the palace, right?" Wan'er had no hidden dangers, but replied bluntly. She usually doesn't check Zhang Zong's whereabouts outside, but the situation today is special, so she asked the coachman to ask.

Zhang Zong smiled bitterly when he heard this, then hesitated for a moment before nodding, "Yes, I did go to the palace and something big happened in the palace, so I was so distressed."

"It must be related to Your Majesty if it makes the young master so distressed, right?" Wan'er hesitated for a moment before asking again after hearing this.

"Why, do you want to know?" Zhang Zong looked at Wan'er in surprise when he heard this. Although he would discuss some things with Wan'er, this matter was related to Li Hong's physical condition, so he didn't want too many people to know about it.

"Well, I want to share my worries for the young master." Wan'er thought about it for a while before nodding solemnly.

Hearing Wan'er say this, Zhang Zong hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded and said, "Okay, I can tell you this, but don't spread it!"

"Well, Wan'er knows!" Wan'er nodded solemnly again.

Zhang Zong sighed again at this time, and then said, "Actually, this matter is related to Your Majesty's body. Your Majesty is sick again today, and the condition is extremely dangerous. If you are a little later, maybe..."

Zhang Zong explained the illness of Li Hong today in detail and briefly introduced Li Hong's current physical condition. Finally, he said with emotion: "What I worry most now is Your Majesty's body. If the disease occurs again, it may be more serious. Moreover, the medicine I gave him can only treat symptoms but not root causes. In addition, the effect will become worse and worse after using it too many times. If it fails to work any time, the consequences will be..."

Zhang Zong didn't say it until the end. If that day really came, Li Hong would have to endure his illness, and it is likely that he would even repeat the tragedy of his premature death in history. The difference was only a few years later.

After listening to Zhang Zong's story, Wan'er also showed a solemn expression on her face. She thought for a while, and finally said: "Young Master, with Your Majesty's current situation, it is impossible to calm down. In other words, Your Majesty's condition will only become more and more serious, and even the worst situation will occur."

"This is what I'm afraid of, but Your Majesty is in a dilemma now and there is no way to do it." Zhang Zong said helplessly again after hearing this.

"Since that's the case, I think you should also make the worst plan!" Wan'er hesitated for a moment and suddenly spoke again.

"The worst plan? What does it mean?" Zhang Zong was also stunned when he heard this.

"If Your Majesty's health is really not good, the prince is young, the queen mother is strong and ambitious, she will definitely participate in the seizure of power at that time, and the ministers in the court will definitely choose to stand. How should the young master choose?" Wan'er said bluntly.

"Don't talk nonsense!" Zhang Zong said repulsively when he heard Wan'er's words. Although he had thought about this situation, he instinctively was unwilling to accept this result.

"I know these words will make the young master feel uncomfortable, but don't forget that the battle between imperial power is particularly severe, and father and son will turn against each other because of this. The young master is now deeply involved in the court and cannot get out of it at all, so he can only participate. It is better to prepare in advance than not prepare!" Wan'er said calmly again.

Zhang Zong also showed a silent expression when he heard this. Although he could not accept these emotionally, he rationally told him that Wan'er's words were not wrong. If Li Hong really fell down, he must be prepared, even if he was not for himself, he had to make plans for the Tang Dynasty and the people around him.

In addition, Wan'er also made it clear that the dispute over imperial power has always been cruel and will not change due to any personal affair. Although he is the prince-consort, Wu Meiniang will not show any mercy to him until that step. After all, they are on the opposite side, and even Taiping may be implicated. As for Ning'er and Wan'er, they cannot escape the disaster.

Thinking of this, Zhang Zong couldn't help but take a breath. He still underestimated the power struggle of this era. Now is not the time for him to sigh, but he must be fully prepared for the future. Otherwise, if the worst situation really happens, he will not even prepare, and everyone around him will be buried with him.

"I understand!" Zhang Zong closed his eyes and took a long breath again, then vented it gently, and at the same time, there seemed to be something different in his eyes when he opened it.
