The answer obtained from system 999 verifies Yuan Buweis conjecture. There are human factors behind the originals violent, irritable and uncontrolled emotions.
In the original plot, after killing Su Mingyou on impulse, Qi Mingxuan actually noticed something wrong with himself.
When he was deprived of military power and confined at home, he took the time to call imperial doctors to the mansion to treat him.
Qi Mingxuan fought for many years in the north, accumulating countless injuries, large and small, and old conditions relapsed from time to time. Imperial physicians were specially transferred permanently to treat him.
However, after a long time, these excellent imperial doctors diagnoses can only give a vague result:
Maybe its the perennial war, killing too many people, violating the harmony of heaven, being haunted with evil Qi and leading to a chaotic body. All of which changed his temperament.
To put it simply, it is trauma from war.
There is no specific treatment and they can only suggest that he controls his emotions and cultivate his body and mind. Its best to read more Buddhist scriptures and Taoist Scriptures, which will hopefully stabilise his situation.
Recite Buddhism, practice Taoism, cultivate ones body and mind
Is this what a crown prince should do?
Are all these doctors incompetant or
Yuan Buweis expression turned contemplative.
After all, he is not the original host, and his emotions will not be affected. He looks at the world from a detached perspective with the mentality of a bystander from beginning to end, and naturally finds many things that the original body has not noticed.
Since the origin of the irritability comes from strange poison, even if others dont know, the person behind the poison must be knowledgeable.
So, is it just a coincidence or was what happened in the princesss house today someones scheme?
The original body murdered someone in public and formed a deep hatred with the Prime Minister in power. Later, because of Ah Xius opposition, he gained a reputation of madness and violence and was also deprived of military power. The prestige accumulated in the past eight years in the war between north and south has been overshadowed, and even the crown princes position, which was stable, has been stained with indelibly.
It can be said that once ones reputation is lost, the beautiful jade is flawed.
It would be too unbelievable to say that everything is a coincidence.
Either someone set up the pit from the beginning and waited for the original body to fall in, or it was just a coincidence at first, and then someone took advantage.
Countless possibilities unfolded in his mind, which made him have a strong interest in the person behind the scenes hidden in the background of the story.
Today, the eldest princess easily agreed to his proposal. It can be seen that her heart is more inclined to him as the crown prince. If she later changed to the prime ministers side in the original plot, it must be due to interference from the behind the scenes person..
Someone who can easily influence the eldest princesss decision and make her willing to offend the crown prince.
After the crown prince was reprimanded, his reputation was damaged and his military power was seized, the person who benefits the most
Someone who has enough power to poison the crown prince covertly, and even the imperial doctors couldnt diagnose the cause
Someone who can make Qi Mingxuan trust them from beginning to end and never raise a little bit of vigilance or suspicion in his heart
An individual quickly came to mind.
If what he hypothesized is true.
At the thought of that man working hard to scheme, but was finally cleaned up by him from inside out. If all his careful plans sunk into the water, all his expectations were shattered. What will his disbelieving collapsed expression look like?
Yuan Buwei couldnt help but show a pleasant smile.
I cant wait.
Yuan Buwei sorted out his thoughts and planned out his next move, then completely relaxed. With light steps, he navigated to the main streets, in no hurry to return.
Everything he saw along the way was a novelty in his eyes. Even if he had lived in the mortal world for a long time, the two different worlds had many distinguishable aspects.
Even if it is the same sugar gourd, there are obvious differences in raw materials and taste.
People come and go in the street.
The young man was dressed in a black robe, with fine gold pattern embroidery. Long black hair tied in a high ponytail, revealing a clean face with sculptured lines. His eyebrows are thin and light with piercing ink like pupils. The whole person is like an elegant and noble ink painting, his bearing stands out among ordinary people.
Like the snow in the sky, with an unattainable sense of distance.
Nonetheless, this celestial-like man tilted his head slightly and bit into the sugar gourd in his hand as if nothing was out of place. The other hand took the copper coins handed back by the stall owner more and calmly put it back into his sleeve.
Not sweet enough.
With one bite, he made a serious comment.
The stall owner was a short old man. He accepted his comment with a smile: Sir, if you prefer something sweet, well specially make it for you next time.
When talking, the old man showed the cunning of local business owners in his eyes, but it was not annoying.
OK. Yuan Buwei accepted, Send it directly to the Shenwu generals mansion, and it has to be ten times sweeter.
The Shenwu general mansion of the God of war?
The old man was surprised and obviously recognized the mans identity. He was stunned in place, staring at the mysterious figure gracefully leaving, still holding the string of crystal clear sugar gourd in his hand.
After a while, he reacted and laughed happily. Thats the military residence of the great general. Isnt that where the crown prince lives? Unexpectedly, even the crown prince likes my sugar gourd!
Although the focus seemed a little crooked, it did not prevent the old man from smiling. Does he still worry that his products wont sell when even the crown prince is pleased?
Yuan Buwei didnt know he had corrupted the originals image, nor would he care if he knew. Eating the sugar gourd , not in a hurry to go back and continued to wander around aimlessly.
Today happens to be a sunny day. The intensity of the sun is a little strong. The dazzling sun shines through the clouds like countless golden arrows from the sky towards the world.
The street was filled with noise, and all kinds of voices mixed together, revealing a strong taste of human emotions.
Yuan Buwei raised his head slightly, the crow feather-like black hair slid down the side of his face, and his bright face was almost framed in the halo.
Feel the blazing brilliance on his face, and the light golden color is reflected in the bottom of his eyes, staining his eyes with a hint of a real smile.
Well, its a fine day
The Shenwu generals house is not far from the eldest princesss house. It can be reached within a short walk.
Although he was the crown prince, he never lived in the east palace. For the past eight years, he has been out and fighting in the north, so that he is now 23 years old and alone, his rearcourt is empty.
When he moved back to the old capital half a year ago, he was awarded the title of crown prince and given the great generals Shenwu mansion. Therefore he directly moved out.
He seldom asked about the affairs in the mansion. The state of the mansion when the emperor gifted it, is how it remained till now.
It looks cold and lifeless.
Even the maids and servants who were sent were directly handed over to Qin Mo, his guard captain. The original host ordered the other party to teach these people to be cautious in their words and deeds in the shortest time possible.
And Qin Mo did not disappoint.
As soon as Yuan Buwei set foot into the mansion he happened to bump into several maidservants.
Seeing Yuan Buwei, the maidservants immediately stood in a row, lowered their eyes, and saluted him.
Greetings, your highness.
Yuan Buwei waved his hand.
Immediately, the maidservants got up again, retreated to one side, looked ahead with their shoulders and backs straight.
Similar reverent and respectful expressions were on all their faces, as well as the same movements. The standards were very high.
Every move was crisp and neat, and their body still showed hints of military rigour.
Obviously, Qin Mo exceeded his original requirements. These delicate and weak maidservants were trained as soldiers.
This is the case with all the maidservants and servants in the Shenwu generals mansion. They are agile and expressionless. On the forefoot they can grind ink, andon the hindfoot they can catch and kill thieves.
This is not a joke. Not long ago, several maidservants arrested a bold thief who tried to sneak into the core area of the study.
If an outsider steps into such a great generals military mansion, they will feel extremely peculiar.
However, Yuan Buwei was used to it.
When he came to the study, a young man was waiting outside the door.
Wearing black robes embroidered with red flame on the sleeve, a sword hanging at his waist and black leather boots. With the same expressionless face.
This man was Qin Mo, the most trusted captain of the guards. He also became the imperial guard commander after the original owner became emperor. However, on the day of the palace raid, he suddenly defected and helped Qi Yu, king of Chu, take over the Imperial Palace in one fell swoop.
His hair was neatly tied, there was not even a wrinkle on his robe, and even the dark, cold sword on his waist was polished.
At first glance, he looks like a stone statue, silent, cold, serious and unsmiling.
But seeing Yuan Buwei, this silent and cold stone seemed to suddenly come to life. He knelt on one knee and buckled his knee heavily on the ground: Your highness.
After spitting out two words, Qin Mo resumed his silence. Only his drooping head and motionless body could be seen.
Its you. Get up.
After staring at him for a few seconds, he looked away. He stepped forward first and pushed open the door of the study.
follow me.
Sitting down in the study, he asked, What happened? according to Qin Mos temper, he would not come to him if there was nothing.
Qin Mo hesitated for a moment and suddenly noticed his left hand.
The slender, white, jade-like palm was wrapped in several layers of linen, and a faint bright red appeared under the snow-white linen.
As soon as he noticed his eyes changed, his eyebrows immediately furrowing: Your Highness is injured? Why dont you send for the imperial doctor?
when you look at this cloth of average quality, you can tell that it is from a poor private doctor.
Imperial doctor? Yuan Buwei is noncommittal.
There are several imperial doctors in the Shenwu generals mansion, who attend the original host all year round. However, these people cant even diagnose the strange poison on him
Its not certain whether these doctors will cure my injury or make my injury more serious.
Qin Mos face became slightly stiff, and his eyes showed faint shock.
As if Yuan Buwei didnt notice his abnormality. His right hand casually stroked the linen wrapped on his left hand, raised the corners of his lips and smiled again.
Thats not right. The injury can certainly be cured, but its not certain whether there will be more symptoms and whether there will be something extra in the medicine.
Speaking to here, he raised his eyes and looked at Qin mo.
Dont you think so? Captain Qin.
