The Gu worm attack will last for three hours, and if the emperor's willpower is not strong enough during these three hours, he will commit suicide because he cannot bear the pain!

But how could they allow the emperor to commit suicide? If the emperor committed suicide, then their prince would not be able to clear his name. So they tied the emperor up tightly and gagged him, forbidding him from biting his tongue to commit suicide!

As for the emperor, let him suffer as he pleases, as long as he doesn't die.

The Emperor clutched his neck, red from the pain, his dark eyes filled with rage as he coldly stared at the eunuchs and ministers standing to the side. "What...what are you all doing standing there...go...go...summon the imperial physician..."

Puff! Puff! Puff!

Before he could finish speaking, he coughed up a mouthful of scarlet blood, staining his clothes and the ground red. The emperor weakly and painfully raised his hand, pointed at the ministers and eunuchs, and said with difficulty, "Do you want to rebel?"

The eunuch standing beside the emperor suddenly sneered, "Your Majesty, it's not that we want to rebel, it's that we are rebelling! Who gave you permission to attack Prince Yi?"

Enraged by the eunuch's words, the emperor spat out another mouthful of bright red blood. However, due to the onset of the Gu worm, the emperor was unable to curse or order the audacious eunuch to be dragged away.

"You...you..."

The eunuch sneered, "I...I...what's wrong? Your Majesty, do you think this servant is very bold? Heh, it's too late to realize this now!"

The Emperor's pained eyes suddenly widened, "You are...you are..." *Pfft! Pfft!* The poor Emperor couldn't even finish a sentence, spitting out blood after only a few words, "Gu Beiyi's people!"

"Yes, otherwise why would we stand by and watch the Emperor suffer without showing any indifference?" the eunuch sneered repeatedly.

I only realized it now; how incredibly stupid of me.

Does he really think he has some ability and can stand on the head of their prince and act arrogantly? The prince didn't deal with him before because he didn't want to ascend the throne and become emperor so soon. Because the prince wanted to unify the world and wipe out the remnants of the previous dynasty, he allowed the emperor to keep causing trouble for the prince.

The emperor was so angry that he vomited blood and soon fainted. But the person who was activating the Gu worms did not stop. The emperor, who had fainted, was violently awakened by pain in just a few seconds. Because there was no one to serve him and no imperial physician was summoned, the emperor fainted again shortly afterward.

But he was quickly awakened by the pain, and then he fainted from the pain again.

This cycle repeats itself over and over again!

Seeing the emperor suffering so much, not a single onlooker showed any remorse or unease. Instead, they stared wide-eyed at the emperor's agonizing state, a hint of excitement lurking beneath their faces.

If the Emperor knew that these people were from the Shadowless Pavilion, and that many of the Shadowless Pavilion members were desperate criminals whose families had been destroyed and whose cases could not be overturned due to the Emperor's orders, he would surely die of fright.

Three hours is a very short time for the people of Wuyinglou, but it was an unbearable ordeal for the Emperor. He was repeatedly awakened by the pain and fainted from the pain. His body was already weak, and now after being tortured like this, he looked as if he had crawled out of a blood pit. He had no strength left and was on the verge of death, as if he would die at any moment.

Upon seeing the emperor like this, the people from Wuyinglou vanished from his sight like ghosts.

About fifteen minutes later, the eunuch who was actually serving the emperor arrived in the hall. When the eunuch saw the emperor lying in a pool of blood, barely alive, he was so frightened that his soul almost flew out of his body. He immediately shouted, "Summon the imperial physician! Summon the imperial physician quickly!"

Then, taking three steps at a time, he came to the emperor's side, picked him up and placed him on the bed. He immediately ordered the eunuchs to come and serve the emperor, to remove his clothes and check for any other injuries. He then summoned the emperor's confidants to take charge of the situation.

In the imperial prison, Gu Beiyi gazed at the dazzling stars outside the skylight, a wicked smile playing on his lips: "Your Majesty, do you like the grand gift I've prepared for you?"

Because of his rebirth, knowing what was going to happen, Gu Beiyi had already made all the necessary preparations. Otherwise, if he had followed the path of his previous life, he and Sheng Sheng would have taken many detours and encountered countless troubles from the Emperor.

After his rebirth, before Sheng Sheng came to Qingluan Kingdom, he could tolerate the emperor's occasional fault-finding, but that didn't mean he would always indulge the emperor. He didn't want to repeat the path of his previous life, nor did he want to let those people go unpunished.

Thinking of Sheng Sheng? Gu Beiyi's dark eyes gleamed with doting affection. He then tapped the table, and the jailer guarding the imperial prison appeared at the door. He respectfully unlocked the door. "Your Highness, the Emperor is currently in a coma due to the Gu worm. The imperial physicians are treating him, but the Emperor has not woken up! The Emperor's plan to destroy Your Highness has also been forced to stop because Wei Linglou personally intervened and pulled off a switcheroo, keeping the people serving the Emperor and the ministers who are loyal to the Emperor occupied. They are actually wearing human skin masks and discussing with the Emperor how to deal with Your Highness."

Gu Beiyi nodded: "Well done!"

After leaving the prison, Gu Beiyi did not go to Rong Sheng, but instead went to find Su Wenxian and Wei Ling to find out what had happened that day.

Because everything was planned in advance, nothing went wrong. Moreover, thanks to Rong Sheng's help, the people of the capital and other places are now very dissatisfied with the emperor. In addition, they are deliberately guiding the public to expose all the foolish things the emperor has done. Before long, the people will be full of complaints and the emperor will lose all popular support.

After confirming that everything was in order, Gu Beiyi asked, "How is Wei Qicheng doing?"

Wei Ling: "Your Highness, our people have already infiltrated Weiqi City. We are just waiting for Your Highness to raise your voice, and Weiqi City and the remnants of the previous dynasty will be wiped out without exception! Meanwhile, Lu Mian, the young master of Weiqi City, is anxious to get treatment and is rushing to the capital despite his health. The Emperor's men are also ready to welcome Lu Mian."

"Don't touch Lu Mian's matter, leave it to the Princess to handle!" Gu Beiyi said.

It was Sheng Sheng's idea that Lu Mian was able to come to the capital. Handing Lu Mian over to Sheng Sheng is the best thing to do.

Wei Ling and Su Wenxian nodded in agreement.

"Where is the Valley Master?"

"The Valley Master will arrive in the capital soon!"

Gu Beiyi nodded. Now that the Valley Master has arrived in the capital, Sheng Sheng will no longer have to face the Emperor alone to remove the curse.

Even though the Valley Master had handed over the Divine Healer Valley to Rong Sheng and become Rong Sheng's apprentice to learn medicine, the Valley Master was still in charge of managing it. His status among the people was no less than Rong Sheng's. With the Valley Master's help, the Emperor wouldn't dare do anything to Sheng Sheng before the curse was lifted.

However, the relationship between Sheng Sheng and him could no longer be hidden.

After finishing his accumulated official duties, Gu Beiyi, like an owl soaring in the night sky, swiftly and lightly headed towards the Prince Yi's residence.
