Chapter 232 The throne

The Fourth Prince was very angry, but no matter how angry he was, he could only complain to his wife. He would not really go out and cause trouble again.

What happened before had already taught him a great lesson.

Regardless of the reason, the Fourth Prince's wife wanted to see him behave himself, but—

"News came from the Cheng family that after Xie Lixing disappeared, it seems someone ambushed the Regent's Palace and tried to assassinate Yue Li, but was killed instead."

Originally, the Fourth Prince's wife did not take Yueli seriously.

Today, the Regent's Palace, which is leaderless, is still as strong as an iron wall and cannot be broken into. It really makes people ponder.

"oh?"

The Fourth Prince's attention was diverted, and his thoughts couldn't help but fall on Yueli.

His impression of Yueli was that of a beautiful but timid vase. His seventh brother liked her very much back then, and later the crown prince liked her very much too. He frowned and tried hard to think about Yueli's face.

A beautiful face appeared in his mind, and the Fourth Prince frowned slightly.

It is beautiful, but there is no need to lose one's throne for such a person.

"It's said that she did something that led to the increase in military power within the Regent's Palace. So... Your Highness, I plan to visit the Regent Princess tomorrow. What do you think?"

Now is a good time for cooperation. As long as Xie Lixing's whereabouts are unknown, the Regent's Palace will be in jeopardy.

It was just right that she went to cooperate with Yueli.

"What's the point of visiting the Regent's Palace without Xie Lixing?" The Fourth Prince disagreed.

He didn't think that without Xie Lixing, the Regent's Palace would have any value to be utilized.

If he doesn't agree, the Fourth Prince's wife cannot go to see him.

She could only frown, then nod, "Okay, it's my fault for not thinking it through." As she spoke, a hint of annoyance flashed in her eyes.

She knew from the beginning that the Fourth Prince was not smart.

But she is willing to find such a person as her husband. If she assists him patiently, there will always be a chance for him to obtain the throne.

However, she didn't expect that he was not only not smart, but also liked to be smart!

The Fourth Prince's wife didn't know for a moment whether it was right or wrong for her to drag Cheng Jia onto the Fourth Prince's boat.

-

The Fourth Prince's wife's plan to visit was aborted, and no one came to disturb Yueli. Yueli slept at home for a day and a night. She had stayed up all night to make the things, and now she could finally sleep peacefully!

What she didn't know was that while she was sleeping peacefully, the situation in the capital changed.

The emperor, who was reviewing memorials, suddenly felt unwell and wanted to call the imperial physician over, but before he could open his mouth, he heard a "puff" sound, and he spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.

"His Majesty!"

The steward standing by him hurriedly called for the imperial physician.

After the imperial physician came over, he shook his head at the steward.

"Your Majesty's health is severely depleted, and... he was poisoned. Now there's no cure!"

Upon hearing this, the steward's face turned very ugly. He looked at the other party in disbelief, "What did you say!" Ever since the incident with the Emperor Star, the Emperor would check An's pulse every day.

Now the imperial physician tells him that the emperor was drugged?

"What are you doing as the people who check the emperor's pulse?" the steward growled angrily.

If there is anything wrong with the emperor, the current situation——

The steward didn't dare to think about it.

Fortunately, when he growled, he woke up the emperor, who slowly opened his eyes: "Little Che, what's wrong? You look so ugly?"

After the emperor finished speaking, he felt something was wrong with his body.

He slowly realized that the reason why Che Zongguan was unhappy was because he had health problems.

The emperor's expression turned extremely grim. He stared intently at the imperial doctors kneeling on the ground, "What's going on?"

"Your Majesty, they say you've been poisoned, and they're trying to cure you."

Manager Che tried hard to make his smile look more natural so that the emperor wouldn't notice anything.

But what a clever man the emperor is!

He frowned and angrily shouted to the imperial physicians below: "All of you, get out of here!" After that, he turned to look at the chief steward, "Go! Bring the abbot of Feiyun Temple here!"

Didn’t he say that his little daughter was a lucky star who could replace Weijia and protect his imperial star!

Why did his physical condition take a turn for the worse?

Ever since the old abbot of Feiyun Temple got into trouble, the emperor did not allow the abbot of Feiyun Temple to leave the palace, so soon he was brought before the old emperor.

He knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."

The emperor leaned on the bed and looked at him coldly, "Didn't you say that someone is guarding my imperial star? What's wrong with my body?"

Facing the emperor's roar, the master of Feiyun Temple remained much calmer.

He looked at the old emperor's expression and then spoke.

"Someone must have destroyed the connection between the little princess and the Emperor Star, otherwise the emperor's health would not be like this." He answered fluently.

It doesn't sound like nonsense at all.

The emperor was irritated by what he said, "When your master was here, this kind of problem never occurred!"

"It's because I'm a commoner and I haven't mastered the skills well enough."

No matter what the emperor said, the abbot of Feiyun Temple always had the attitude of "my skills are just like this, you can use them if you want."

The emperor was so angry that his chest heaved up and down, and he almost died of anger!

The old emperor pointed at the abbot of Feiyun Temple in front of him and said coldly: "Believe it or not, I will slaughter your entire Feiyun Temple right now!"

Hearing this, the abbot of Feiyun Temple slowly raised his eyes and looked at the old emperor coldly.

"Well, it's not the first time the Emperor has done this, is it?"

"you!"

The emperor was very angry with him.

The abbot of Feiyun Temple still had an attitude of "this is what I am, if you have the guts, you can kill me."

"Is there a solution?"

The old emperor changed his words.

The abbot of Feiyun Monastery sized up the old emperor and shook his head. "A new imperial star has risen. Yours lacks the power of the new one and is destined to decline."

He should just give up.

The emperor of a fallen country!

"Come here, take him away and chop him off!" The old emperor couldn't bear to hear that his throne was lost, so after the master of Feiyun Temple told the truth, he was beheaded.

But he didn't care.

"Your Majesty, it's useless to kill me. You are destined to give up the throne. Hahahaha!" His voice was very loud and spread far away, so that many people knew it.

Emperor, it’s over.

As soon as this incident happened, the princes immediately became restless.

The emperor was dying. After they received the signal, they began to prepare day and night. While the old emperor was working hard to recuperate, the princes were already impatient for the throne.

Especially Prince Hui, he couldn't hold back and came to see the emperor impatiently.

"Father."

The emperor knew Prince Hui's temper very well.

As soon as Prince Hui appeared, the emperor knew that he came for the throne.

"The throne will not be passed on to you." said the old emperor.
