"After you poison the emperor, wait until the first birthday banquet is almost over and let the poison take effect.
But it’s best not to let anyone find out that it’s a Gu poison. When the time comes, I will plant people in Prince Kang’s mansion to forge the poison, so that there will be definite evidence that Prince Kang ordered someone to poison the emperor at the first birthday banquet!
In this way, Miss Gu, you will not be suspected.
There is evidence of poison. No matter how King Kang defends himself, the emperor who is tortured by the poison will not let him off easily!
No matter how the emperor will deal with Prince Kang in the end, Miss Gu, you and Hong Ling have avenged your hatred!
Miss Gu, what do you think?
Prince Duan stroked the white jade teacup with his fingertips and told them his plan.
Gu Yunsheng's lowered eyelids trembled. "Your Highness, then...then the poison you asked me to give Your Highness, is it the kind that won't harm His Majesty's body?"
"It's like a chronic poison. Does Miss Gu have this kind of poison?"
Prince Duan narrowed his eyes slightly, and a murderous intent towards the old emperor flashed across his face.
Gu Yunsheng nodded, "Yes, but chronic poison can also harm the body. Is this okay?"
"That's fine. The most important thing now is to avenge Hong Ling. After dealing with Prince Kang, Miss Gu can find an opportunity to remove the poison from the Emperor."
"Okay, then let's do as the prince says."
Prince Duan sent someone to send Gu Yunsheng back to the alley near Prince Kang's mansion.
Gu Yunsheng watched Prince Duan's men leave and stood there for a while. Soon, another man in black appeared in front of her.
"Miss Gu, please follow me."
Gu Yunsheng took two steps back, her voice filled with doubt and wariness.
"Who is your master?"
"Miss Gu will know when she goes there. I'm sorry."
The man in black also knocked Gu Yunsheng unconscious with a knife and carried her away.
When Gu Yunsheng woke up again, she found herself in the imperial study where she had been once before.
A hint of darkness flashed across her eyes, and when she looked up again, her gaze was filled with confusion and doubt.
"here it is....."
"Miss Gu, this is the imperial study. I invite you to come and sit down."
The old emperor's hoarse and unpleasant voice came from the high seat.
Gu Yunsheng looked up and saw that it was the old emperor. She wanted to stand up and salute in panic.
The old emperor waved his hand and said, "Miss Gu, please don't be polite. Please sit down. I have no ill will towards you.
I just know one thing and want to tell you.
Lest you be used by your enemies."
Gu Yunsheng became a little nervous when she heard this.
"What does the Emperor mean?"
The old emperor sighed, "Miss Gu, do you know who the enemy was who hunted down your mother?"
Gu Yunsheng pursed her lips and said, "I didn't know it at first, but I learned from Prince Duan that my mother's enemy was Prince Kang."
"Oh? Did Prince Duan also help you find a way to plot against Prince Kang in order to get revenge?"
Gu Yunsheng did not deny it, "Yes."
"Miss Gu, what Prince Duan said about your mother's enemies is only half right.
Ever since you and Prince Kang came to the palace last time and you said you wanted to find your enemies, I sent people to investigate what happened.
Fortunately, some evidence from that year has not been erased, so my people investigated the truth of that year.
Your mother's enemy is indeed Prince Kang, but Prince Kang is not the only enemy of your mother.
There wasn't just one group of people chasing your mother back then; there was another group, and their leader was Prince Duan."
The old emperor spoke slowly, his turbid eyes fixed on Gu Yunsheng's eyes, not missing any emotion in them.
Gu Yunsheng's pupils constricted, eyes full of shock.
"Duan, Prince Duan is also my mother's enemy?!"
"Well, this is what I sent people to investigate. Prince Duan is also very scheming. He only told you that your mother's enemy is Prince Kang, but he excluded himself.
His purpose must be to use you to plot against King Kang.
Miss Gu, has Prince Duan told you anything else? For example, how does he want you to cooperate with him to plot against Prince Kang?
The old emperor rubbed the ring on his thumb and calmly answered Gu Yunsheng's question.
Gu Yunsheng's eyes were red and her voice was trembling.
"Prince Duan, he had this common woman poison you, Your Majesty, at the first birthday banquet of Prince Kang's legitimate daughter at the beginning of next month. He also wanted to hide the poison in Prince Kang's mansion to frame Prince Kang and make you think that it was Prince Kang who had you poisoned."
Gu Yunsheng revealed Prince Duan's plan in its entirety.
Upon hearing this, the old emperor sighed.
"It's so! I'm so chilled!
I didn't expect that Prince Duan would want to plot against his brothers by plotting against me!
Miss Gu, if you follow Prince Duan's plan, I'm afraid you'll be the next to die after Prince Kang."
Gu Yunsheng stood up, knelt on the ground with a plop, and choked with sobs, "I beg the emperor to make the decision! I don't ask for the death of Prince Duan and Prince Kang, I just want revenge!
After I have my revenge, I will leave the capital immediately and never set foot in it again!"
"Miss Gu, please stand up. Don't worry, I am not an unreasonable person.
Even if Prince Kang and Prince Duan are my biological sons, they did wrong things in the past and they should be punished!
When the first birthday banquet of Prince Kang's daughter is held next month, you don't need to put a curse on me. I will cooperate with you and faint on my own.
When the time comes, we will follow Prince Duan's plan. I will consider how to deal with Prince Kang.
After I'm done with Prince Kang, I'll figure out how to deal with Prince Duan. That'll be considered revenge for you, okay?"
The old emperor acted as if he was doing good for Gu Yunsheng.
"Yes! Thank you, Your Majesty!"
