Ye Beihan's clothes were still dusty, his armor was still on, and he entered Yangju Palace with a scimitar in his hand.
Apart from the Imperial Guards, no one in the palace is allowed to bring weapons. The fact that Ye Beihan was able to bring weapons into the palace proves that Su Luo's guess was correct: the Northern Liang Imperial Palace has long been in his hands.
Ye Beihan turned to look at the two imperial guards who were holding Su Luo, their hands touching Su Luo's body.
Even without Ye Beihan speaking, just one glance was enough for the two Imperial Guards to sense the intense killing intent, causing them to involuntarily release Su Luo.
"roll……"
Ye Beihan's words were firm and resolute. The two imperial guards glanced at the Emperor of Beiliang, their eyelids drooping, caught in a dilemma.
Leaving is not an option, staying is not an option either; either His Majesty or the Regent will eventually kill them.
In the end, the two chose to leave, after all, His Majesty was ill, and the Regent could take their lives in an instant.
However, the two of them underestimated the place Su Luo held in Ye Beihan's heart. They even bumped into Su Luo, and as soon as they stepped out of Yangju Palace, the two of them died on the spot.
Blood from the aorta splattered on the walls and golden windows of Yangju Hall, but Su Luo looked at the people inside without any surprise, as if they were used to such a scene.
"How are you?"
Facing Su Luo, Ye Beihan suppressed his fierce aura. Such a ruthless person suddenly transformed into a gentle one, which surprised both Ye Shaorong and the Emperor of Beiliang.
Ye Shaorong was even more resentful. This Su Luo, whether in terms of talent or appearance, how could she compare to Qian Ning? Moreover, she was a married woman, so why did she win Ye Beihan's favor?
Or perhaps Ye Beihan simply enjoys this kind of perverse stimulation.
Su Luo: "I'm fine, just a little tired."
"Tired? Then let's go back. You don't need to come to Yangju Hall anymore. There are some illnesses that you can't cure."
Su Luo looked up, her face showing no shock, but that look in her eyes was the one Ye Beihan was most familiar with.
Whenever Su Luo showed such a look, it meant that she had already figured out what was going on. Coupled with what he had just said, this woman must know what was going on with the poison in the emperor's body.
What Ye Beihan liked about her was her intelligence; her rationality was always a level above others, just like his illness. This woman could tell at a glance that it was an illness!
Instead of thinking of him as some other person, that he was a freak who was neither male nor female.
"Yue Ze, take Su Luo back first. I'll settle the score with you later."
"Alright, I'll take the Deputy Minister of Agriculture with me now."
Ye Yueze felt extremely guilty. The Vice Minister of Agriculture had saved his father from death and was almost beaten to death. He felt sorry for the Vice Minister of Agriculture.
Now that his brother had arrived, and there was a chance to take the Deputy Minister of Agriculture away, he quickly got up, walked ahead of Su Luo, and led her away.
The Northern Liang Emperor and Ye Shaorong were moved and wanted to stop him, but Ye Beihan blocked them with his body, and the words they wanted to say could not be uttered.
As Su Luo left Yangju Palace, she glanced back and her eyes met those of the Emperor of Beiliang. She didn't say anything, only leaving behind a smile that was ambiguous.
This laughter made the Emperor of Beiliang uneasy; it was like a natural disaster, as if it could destroy Beiliang at any moment.
"You wretched child, Beiliang will be destroyed in your hands sooner or later, cough cough..."
The Emperor of Beiliang pointed at Ye Beihan, coughing up blood as he cursed.
Faced with this situation, Ye Beihan neither sought out the imperial physician nor felt anxious. Compared to the harm this person had caused him in the past, this little bit of discomfort was nothing.
"Princess, please go back. I'll stay here. I have something to say to His Majesty in private."
Ye Shaorong was angry. Her nephew didn't treat her like an elder at all, and the two were secretly competing with each other. It was not a good time for a direct confrontation.
"What, do I have to send someone to escort you away?"
"you……"
Ye Shaorong was so angry that her face contorted in anger, and she stormed off.
The Regent's attitude was so perceptive that even the eunuchs in the Yangju Palace knew to withdraw on their own.
After everyone left, the Emperor of Beiliang stopped looking at Ye Beihan and simply lowered his head angrily, feeling powerless and exhausted.
"You wretched child, bring on whatever tricks you have up your sleeve. I can handle them."
Ye Beihan smiled wickedly and took out a small black pill from his pocket.
“You can’t handle it. The late emperor of Nanning was about your age, and he has already passed away. I don’t mind sending you down to keep him company. After all, you’ve fought together your whole lives, and you can chat about your experiences down there.”
The Northern Liang Emperor had no expression on his face, but judging from the position he moved, he was afraid of Ye Beihan.
"However, I will not let you die so quickly. The pain you are enduring every day is only one ten-thousandth of what I and my mother have suffered. This is what you should repay."
After saying that, he crushed the small pill in his hand into powder with his fingertips. The Emperor of Beiliang was startled and tried to reach out to catch the powder.
Unfortunately, the sand slipped through his fingers, and he couldn't catch anything, just like him and Ye Beihan and his mother. If only he had known this would happen, he wouldn't have done it in the first place. What goes around comes around.
"Give me the antidote, give me the antidote..."
Ye Beihan clapped his hands, remaining unmoved no matter how much the Northern Liang Emperor pleaded.
"Remember, don't mess with people you shouldn't, or all the pain will fall on you."
When the poison in his body doesn't act up, the Northern Liang Emperor can still be stubborn, but once it does, it's like a thousand ants gnawing at his heart.
Ye Beihan had also calculated that he was unwilling to give up these rights, leaving a glimmer of hope for him and Ye Shaorong.
So even if it's painful, he'll endure it, and the poison won't really kill him. As long as he can bear it, he still has a chance to take everything back.
When the time comes, I will make sure that Ye Beihan and his brother are reduced to ashes, and even their mother's corpse will be dug up, exposed to the sun, and whipped.
"You wretched child, I should have strangled you, you neither-male-nor-female monster, the moment you were born."
The term "neither male nor female" is Ye Beihan's Achilles' heel, and no one can utter it.
In an instant, his face turned ashen, his eyes filled with murderous intent, and his hands clenched into fists, his nails digging into his flesh, bleeding without him even noticing.
"court death!"
He drew his scimitar and pressed it against the neck of the Northern Liang Emperor. The scimitar was incredibly sharp; with the slightest movement of his hand, he could kill the defenseless Northern Liang Emperor.
"You won't kill me. If I die, all your suffering over the years will have been for nothing, won't it? Hahaha..."
Ye Beihan's hands were trembling. Killing people was effortless for him. This person owed his mother a debt he hadn't yet repaid.
While he was laughing, Ye Beihan stuffed another poison into his mouth, and with a lift of his chin, the drug went down his throat. He tried to vomit but couldn't.
"I see that you can withstand my moves, so I will grant your request."
The Emperor of Northern Liang gripped his neck with both hands, stuck out his tongue as if to spit it out, and coughed until his face turned red, but to no avail.
He could barely speak anymore; Ye Beihan was trying to poison him so he would be mute and unable to cry out in pain.
"you……"
He was really about to lose his voice, so he could only say the important things.
“Ye Beihan, that… woman, kill… her, she… she will destroy Beiliang, kill her…”
