Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 140 The Prince's Evil
As the night was dark, Li Yuan finally got a good night's sleep.

What he is most worried about is that his sons will kill each other.

Now he has comforted Li Shimin again, as long as he comforts Li Shimin's heart, he feels that his son should be able to live like this forever.

Without bleeding, he was naturally relieved.

Li Yuan slept very deeply that night, and when he woke up the next morning he was full of energy. He had not gone to court for two days, and he went to court again.

East Palace.

After retiring from the court, Li Jiancheng hurried back to the East Palace.

When he came back, his complexion was very bad, terribly pale.

Seeing him like this, Song Gongqing asked, "What's the matter, His Royal Highness?"

Li Jiancheng snorted: "Father looks very good today."

Song Gongqing said: "Isn't it good that the Holy Majesty looks good? Doesn't His Highness the Crown Prince also hope so?"

Li Jiancheng frowned, and then gave Song Gongqing a vicious look. He felt that Song Gongqing's words obviously meant to make fun of him.

"Father has rewarded King Qin with a lot of things!"

Song Gongqing smiled and remained silent.

Li Jiancheng said: "Do you know what the emperor means?"

"His Royal Highness, the meaning of the Holy One is already very clear, can't you see it?"

"what do you mean?"

"As a father, His Majesty's love for any son is the same. His Majesty's heart has softened, and he wants to support His Highness King Qin again. After all, his favorite is His Highness King Qin."

As soon as Song Gongqing finished speaking, Li Jiancheng's expression froze. These words hurt him. Why did his father still love Li Shimin the most?
Could it be that he loves Li Shimin the most, so he wants to pass the throne to Li Shimin?

It sounded as if he had seized Li Shimin's throne, or as if he had blocked Li Yuan's love for Li Shimin.

Aggrieved.

Li Jiancheng's face became paler and gradually distorted.

Song Gongqing didn't say a word, just took out a small package from his arms and put it on the table, then got up and said goodbye.

Li Jiancheng looked at the package and suddenly clenched his fists.

Fingers snapped, and Li Jiancheng's eyes suddenly revealed an invisible murderous look.

Song Gongqing, who left, stood under the sun and stopped suddenly. He looked up at the sun in the sky, and sweat ran down his cheeks.

But he didn't intend to wipe it off at all, and he didn't even feel uncomfortable standing in the sun.

When he was sweating profusely and drenched all over, he showed a sneer at the corner of his mouth, then turned and left.

He is very clear that sacrifices are indispensable in the struggle for imperial power, and the relationship between father and son and brotherhood are unreliable in front of imperial power.

It's cruel, but that's the way it is.

He believed that Li Jiancheng would make a better choice. He still had the magic medicine, and as long as Li Jiancheng wanted to do it, he would do it for him at all costs.

Only when Li Jiancheng becomes emperor can he realize his aspirations and ideals, and for these, what if he does something against the will of the people?

Changsun Wuji continued to send people to find a cure for insomnia.

But since Li Shimin entered the palace that day, Li Yuan's complexion has improved a lot, and his sleep has also become better and better, so after Changsun Wuji heard about the situation, he was not as busy as before.

Even if Li Shimin had ordered him to continue.

In his opinion, since Li Yuan's illness has almost recovered, this prescription for insomnia is of little use.

But just when Changsun Wuji thought so, Li Yuan suddenly suffered a relapse from his long-term illness. For some reason, he suddenly became very excited at night and couldn't fall asleep.

The next day, the whole person was very listless, sleepy and had nightmares, and couldn't fall asleep, so he could only squint for a while.

This situation soon spread to Qin Wangfu.

"Auxiliary machine, father's illness suddenly broke out. This is not a good omen. Hurry up and find a cure for insomnia." Li Shimin was burning with anxiety.

Changsun Wuji didn't seem to have expected that Li Yuan's condition would relapse, which made him a little nervous.

"Don't worry, my lord, our people are still searching. I think there will be news soon, and I have asked them to notify the county magistrates of the Tang prefectures and counties, so that they can disperse and search step by step. It should be found soon."

Li Shimin nodded, in this situation, this is the only way to go.

And just after Changsun Wuji and the others speeded up again, some people actually presented the secret recipe.

After Li Shimin got these secret recipes, he hurried into the palace for Li Yuan to try, but these secret recipes were not very effective, they could calm Li Yuan's heart a bit, but they didn't help much in improving sleep.

Even if some secret recipes can really make Li Yuan fall asleep, the effect of the medicine will lose soon, and after falling asleep, Li Yuan will have constant nightmares, so he dare not even sleep.

In the whole Chang'an City, some people suddenly became panicked, some were worried, and some were secretly happy.

East Palace.

Li Jiancheng stood in front of the window and looked out at the sun-baked weeds that were already withered. If the sun continued to shine like this, he felt that those weeds would definitely die.

Just like his father's situation at this time, as long as he continues to take the phantom medicine, he will die sooner or later.

Nobody can keep their body intact without rest.

All he needs to do is wait.

Li Jiancheng watched and watched, and suddenly a tear flowed down his cheek.

He suddenly wanted to vent, but he still kept himself calm. After wiping away the tear, he found Song Gongqing.

"Is there an antidote for that thing?"

"His Royal Highness, that thing is not a poison, so there is no so-called antidote. As long as you don't continue to take it, you can recover after a period of rest, but as long as you continue to take it, and take it for a long time, even Da Luo Immortal will save you." not coming back."

Hearing Song Gongqing's words, Li Jiancheng finally nodded his head: "The crown prince learned that the King of Qin is sending people to find the secret recipe to cure the emperor. I am really worried that they will find it."

"Don't worry, His Royal Highness, there won't be any, but His Royal Highness, can't you just do nothing?"

"what do you mean?"

"Father's kindness and son's filial piety still need to be done."

Prince Li Jiancheng was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that even if he did this, even if he wanted Li Yuan to die, as a prince, as Li Yuan's prince, how could he ignore it and let King Qin regard this as his father? What did you worry about?
As a prince, he should be at the forefront.

"Mr. Song is right, the prince knows what to do."

Song Gongqing nodded. Some things, even if they were just for show, had to be done.
