"Your Highness, why have you come to visit me in person today, and so openly? What has happened?"

When Mei Changsu learned that Xiao Jingyi had come to see him, he immediately came out to greet him.

As the weather is getting colder, he is wearing thick clothes.

But it still couldn't protect his frail body.

"Chang Su, I've come here today because I need your help with something."

However, the matter was urgent, so Xiao Jingyi didn't hesitate and immediately stepped forward to speak.

"You need my help?"

Mei Changsu was taken aback, but quickly recovered. He looked around and immediately gestured for him to enter.

"Then come in first."

"it is good."

Led by Mei Changsu, Xiao Jingyi entered the room.

As soon as he entered, he felt a blast of hot air hit him, and Xiao Jingyi also noticed the brazier placed in the center of the room.

Noticing his gaze, Mei Changsu explained, "Your Highness, you are also aware of my physical condition."

“I know, so you could have simply had someone lead me in.”

Xiao Jingyi replied.

Mei Changsu waved his hand and asked, "Your Highness, what trouble have you encountered, and what can I do for you?"

Seeing that they were getting down to business, Xiao Jingyi said in a deep voice, "I need to borrow someone from you."

"Borrow someone? Who?"

"Your accompanying physician, Dr. Yan."

Upon hearing this, Mei Changsu was startled, and after a moment of silence, he realized what he meant: "Your Highness, do you mean the Emperor in the palace?"

The news of Emperor Liang's illness has spread throughout the capital, and Mei Changsu is naturally aware of it as well.

He just didn't understand why Xiao Jingyi would send Doctor Yan.

After all, there are so many imperial physicians in the palace, and every one of them is a master. How could we possibly need Doctor Yan?

"Only Dr. Yan can provide this diagnosis and treatment."

Xiao Jingyi pondered for a moment and said, "Because those imperial physicians in the palace can no longer be relied upon."

"what!"

Although Xiao Jingyi did not explain it completely, Mei Changsu, with his intelligence, had already grasped the meaning behind his words.

That is, people in the harem took advantage of Emperor Liang's serious illness to cause trouble in the harem.

He even threatened the imperial physicians!

"No, His Majesty cannot die!"

Mei Changsu immediately became anxious. He had been scheming for so many years, all for the purpose of redressing the wrongful convictions of that year during Emperor Liang's reign.

In the original storyline, Mei Changsu was the same.

In his view, the best outcome would be to overturn the old case while Emperor Liang was still in power.

"Jingyi, tell me, what exactly happened?"

"it is good."

Xiao Jingyi did not hide anything and immediately told Mei Changsu all the information he knew.

"Damn it, I never thought that Consort Yue would be so ruthless. In order to protect the Crown Prince, she actually did such a thing in secret."

When Mei Changsu heard that it was Consort Yue who was behind it, he was furious.

"Changsu, this is a tremendous opportunity for Consort Yue. If Emperor Liang dies, then it is only natural for the Crown Prince to succeed to the throne, so we need to stop it."

Xiao Jingyi said to Mei Changsu with his hands behind his back.

"it is good."

Seeing this, Mei Changsu did not hesitate at all, and even went to Doctor Yan in person to explain the situation.

Meanwhile, Xiao Jingyi also asked someone to bring Xiao Jingyan over.

If it were just Doctor Yan alone, he definitely wouldn't be able to get to the palace.

But if you add Xiao Jingyi, it will be a different story.

Outside the Su residence.

"Sixth Brother, whether Father can turn this danger into safety depends on you."

"Jingyi, don't worry, even if I die, I will make sure that Doctor Yan is safely delivered to Father Emperor."

After hearing Xiao Jingyi's explanation, Xiao Jingyan understood the seriousness of the matter, so he went with the determination to die.

"Wait, Prince Jing."

Just then, Mei Changsu called out to Xiao Jingyan.

Under the latter's questioning gaze, he took out a brocade pouch and handed it to Xiao Jingyan: "Your Highness Prince Jing, it is said that before His Majesty fell into a coma, he ordered the palace to be sealed off. Give this to Commander Meng, and he will help you at that time."

"You actually know Meng Zhi?"

Xiao Jingyan looked at Mei Changsu with some surprise, not expecting that he would know such a person.

"I had the honor of meeting you once before. I will trouble Your Highness Prince Jing to make this trip to the palace."

At this moment, Xiao Jingyi added, "Sixth Brother, don't underestimate this brocade pouch. When you see Meng Zhi, don't say anything, just show him this, and you're guaranteed to get in."

"I've also sent someone to inform the Empress."

"Okay, leave the rest to me."

However, Xiao Jingyan didn't think much of it. Seeing that time was of the essence, he immediately bid farewell to the two of them and left the Su residence with Doctor Yan.

"Jingyi, when do you think that simpleton, Water Buffalo, will realize my identity?"

Watching Xiao Jingyan's departing figure, Mei Changsu jokingly remarked at the opportune moment.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jingyi shook his head: "Forget it. Based on my understanding of him, unless you reveal your identity to his face, it will be difficult for him to detect it."

"Oh? What do you mean?"

"Because he's simple-minded, he only plays straight shots."

"Hahaha!"

Upon hearing this, Mei Changsu was overjoyed.

"Okay, stop laughing now."

Just then, a cool breeze blew by, and Mei Changsu shivered. Xiao Jingyi immediately said, "Let's go inside first. I promised Doctor Yan that I would wait for him to return and hand you over to him in your entirety."

"Alright, let's go in first."

..

At the same time, led by Xiao Jingyan, the group arrived outside the palace gate.

"Halt! This is the imperial palace. No one may enter without an imperial decree or summons."

At this moment, a group of imperial guards blocked Xiao Jingyan's path.

"How dare you! I went in to visit my father, who is ill!"

When Xiao Jingyan saw these people blocking his way, he immediately scolded them.

When the imperial guards saw it was him, their expressions changed slightly. But remembering that this was Emperor Liang's order, they said with difficulty, "So it's His Highness Prince Jing. We hope His Highness will forgive us."

"The palace is currently under martial law, so it is indeed impossible to release people at will. Please forgive me, Your Highness."

“…”

Xiao Jingyan hadn't expected that the palace would now refuse entry to anyone, which made him somewhat displeased.

But considering that the Imperial Guards were numerous and powerful, and were acting under orders, he had no choice but to suppress his anger.

He said, "Then I would like to see Commander Meng. Is that alright?"

"To see Commander Meng?"

Upon hearing this, the Imperial Guard soldiers hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement.

"Please wait a moment, Your Highness Prince Jing."

Then a soldier ran back into the palace, and soon Meng Zhi ran out and went straight to Xiao Jingyan.

"Your Highness Prince Jing, what brings you to the palace?"

"Commander Meng, I'm not going to waste my breath on you. Just take a look for yourself."

He took out the brocade pouch that Mei Changsu had just given him and handed it to Meng Zhi.

The latter was somewhat puzzled, but still took it. After opening it, his expression changed drastically.

"Your Highness Prince Jing, please follow me!"

"But Commander, Your Majesty..."

"Guard the palace gates well! I'll take responsibility for anything that happens!"

Seeing that he said that, the imperial guard wisely shut up.

Xiao Jingyan was also surprised to see Meng Zhi so cooperative.

Thinking of Xiao Jingyi and Mei Changsu, he couldn't help but sigh.

Although neither of them was in the palace, they were fully aware of what was happening before them.

Truly, they strategize within the command tent and win battles a thousand miles away.

Subsequently, under Meng Zhi's guidance, Xiao Jingyan and Doctor Yan successfully entered the palace.

To be on the safe side, Meng Zhi even led several hundred elite troops directly to Emperor Liang's palace.

Meanwhile, in Consort Yue's palace.

"Mother, is this really alright for you?"

Crown Prince Xiao Jingxuan also learned of Consort Yue's thoughts, and he was somewhat apprehensive and afraid.

He was afraid that his actions would be exposed, and that his father, the emperor, would not escape punishment and would be held accountable later.

"Prince!"

Seeing him like this, Consort Yue's face became somewhat ferocious, making her already somewhat mean-spirited appearance even more mean-spirited.

She stepped forward and put her hand on the prince's shoulder.

"My son, if you don't take action this time, do you know what you will face?"

"But, Mother..."

Although the crown prince knew the consequences, he was more afraid of Emperor Liang than anything else.

It must be said that although Emperor Liang failed in some aspects, he had still managed to create an image of being unassailable in the hearts of the Crown Prince and other princes.

"No buts, Mother has already given orders to those imperial physicians. As long as they do nothing, this Great Liang will be yours in the future."

"You must remember, you are the crown prince, you are the future emperor of the Great Liang, understand?"

Although Consort Yue was also very afraid, she knew that since she had already taken this step, she had to see it through to the end.

No matter what, we have to keep going!

Therefore, she cannot afford to fail now; she must also ensure that the Crown Prince stands tall.

"Moreover, His Majesty was already seriously ill, and we are doing this to reduce his suffering."

Consort Yue said frantically.

Seeing her already deranged state, the Crown Prince felt a sense of dread and shook his head, trembling slightly: "Mother, that's Father."

"My son, you still know that he is your father, but do you know what you will face if your father wakes up?"

"If the Crown Prince is deposed, the lightest punishment is being demoted to a prince, and the heaviest is being reduced to a commoner!"
