"Why would the Queen Mother suddenly place the Queen under house arrest?" Mu Feng asked in confusion.
The maid gasped and said, "I heard that the Queen Mother imprisoned the Empress in a side hall of the Cining Palace on the grounds that she failed to take good care of His Majesty."
Mu Li clenched her fists. "This is clearly an excuse. I'm afraid our whereabouts have been exposed! That's why the Queen Mother is deliberately looking for trouble in order to further control the situation."
Mo Xi looked solemn: "If that's the case, then we must find a way to rescue our mother as soon as possible."
Mu Feng thought for a moment: "Now that His Majesty is unconscious and the Empress is imprisoned, we are outnumbered in the palace and cannot force our way in. We must come up with a comprehensive plan."
Mu Li's eyes turned. "That's easy. The Queen Mother imprisoned the Empress for not taking good care of His Majesty. Then as long as His Majesty wakes up, the Empress will naturally be fine!"
Mo Xi nodded in agreement: "This method is feasible. Do you have a way to save our father?"
Mu Li smiled slightly: "There is no way to completely detoxify it at the moment, but it is possible to keep His Majesty awake for a while."
"Let's do it!" Mo Xi nodded in agreement.
After Mu Li finished speaking, she took out some spiritual spring water and fed it to His Majesty, and then gave His Majesty two injections.
"Is that okay?" Mu Feng asked.
"Just wait, His Majesty will wake up soon!" Mu Li said affirmatively.
"Wow, so confident?" Mu Feng teased.
"That's right. I pierced the painful point. Even if you are unconscious, you will wake up from the pain!" Mu Li said in a low voice.
Sure enough, the emperor groaned in pain a moment later. "Ouch, it hurts so much! How dare you! Who dares to prick me with a needle?"
"Eunuch Fu, come quickly, His Majesty is awake." Seeing this, Mu Li hurried out to call Eunuch Fu. Mo Xi stepped forward and whispered, "Father, are you awake?"
The emperor slowly opened his eyes, a look of confusion on his face. "Xi'er, you are Xi'er? You are finally back? I am not dreaming, am I?" The emperor wanted to get up excitedly. "What's going on? Why do I feel pain all over my body?"
Mo Xi said, "Father, you were poisoned and unconscious for many days. It was Mu Li who found a way to wake you up temporarily."
The emperor looked at Mu Li and said excitedly, "Li'er, it's great that you're all back! I knew you would be fine!"
At this time, Eunuch Fu hurried over and cried with joy: "Your Majesty, you are finally awake. I was worried to death."
The emperor said, "Afu, where is the queen? Go and fetch her, and tell her that the prince and Li'er have returned!"
"Father, the Queen Mother has just been imprisoned in the Cining Palace by the Queen Mother on the grounds that she failed to take good care of you." Mo Xi said.
"What? How dare the Queen Mother!" the Emperor shouted angrily, "Change my clothes, I will go and get the Queen myself!"
Eunuch Fu hurried up to change the emperor's clothes.
After a while, the emperor took everyone to the Cining Palace!
"Empress Dowager, something bad has happened. His Majesty has woken up and is bringing people to the Cining Palace!" The Empress Dowager was leisurely eating snacks in the Cining Palace when her personal maid hurried in to report.
"What? The emperor is awake? How is this possible?" the empress dowager said in shock.
"Your Majesty, the emperor came to the Cining Palace as soon as he woke up. It must be for the Queen. What should we do?" The palace maid asked in horror.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Send someone to change the queen's clothes first, and then bring her here." said the Queen Mother.
"yes!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the eunuchs' voices could be heard from outside, "Your Majesty has arrived!"
The palace servants knelt on the ground and shouted in unison: "Long live the emperor!"
"My son, you are finally awake?" The Queen Mother walked out quickly and pretended to be surprised.
"Thank you, mother, for your concern! I am fine now, but when I woke up, I heard that the queen was imprisoned by you? I wonder what mistake the queen made?" The emperor asked politely.
"My son, I'm afraid you have been deceived by the servants. Your mother was worried because she saw that you hadn't woken up for many days, so she thought of copying Buddhist scriptures with the Queen and praying for the Buddha's blessing. All my efforts are for you, my son!" said the Queen Mother with a sad face.
"Really? Then it seems that I have misunderstood my mother. The Queen's sincerity is effective. Copying scriptures is indeed useful and deserves a reward. Mother, what do you think?" The emperor asked with a smile.
"Ah, yes, the emperor is right!" The empress dowager's smile froze on her face.
"Someone, please ask the queen to come out!" The emperor nodded with satisfaction and then gave the order.
"yes."
The queen was brought in and saw that the emperor had woken up. She burst into tears and said, "Your Majesty, you are finally awake."
The emperor held the queen's hand and said, "I'm sorry for making you suffer."
The Queen shook her head.
"Mother, the Queen and I will take our leave first. You can take a rest!" The emperor took the Queen's hand and walked out of the Cining Palace without waiting for the Queen Mother to speak!
"Bang bang bang..." There was a sound of something hitting the ground in the Cining Palace.
"Your Majesty, you are worthy of it!" Mu Li gave the emperor a thumbs up!
"Li'er, I haven't seen you for so many years. Why don't you call me father anymore? You called me daddy when you were a child!" The emperor immediately turned into a daughter slave and said sadly.
"Your Majesty, I'm grown up now, I can't yell at you anymore..." Mu Li said a little embarrassedly.
"Don't make things difficult for the child. Let's go back to the palace first." The queen gently tugged at the emperor's sleeve.
"Okay, let's go back to the Yangxin Palace!"
Returning to the Yangxin Palace, the emperor looked at everyone with a gloomy expression: "What happened in the palace during the time I was unconscious?"
Mo Xi informed the emperor of what the queen mother had done.
The emperor was furious: "How dare this vicious woman be so vicious!"
Mu Feng said, "Your Majesty, please calm down. The most urgent task is to completely detoxify the poison and find out who is behind this."
