Chapter 250: Controlling the Prince
Murong Li frowned and took Su Yue's hand as he entered the hall.
As soon as the two came in, they smelled a strong smell of medicine. They both frowned and walked towards the emperor's dragon bed.
"Bang!"
The palace door was heavily closed, and the two men just looked at each other. It was just as they had guessed. The prince wanted to put them under house arrest here with the emperor.
Then, if anything happens to the emperor, the blame will be put on them, leaving them with no way to express their suffering.
From then on, the prince had the final say on everything. If someone said that Murong Li had killed the emperor, then it was Murong Li who had killed the emperor. At that time, Murong Li's fate was not decided by the prince's words.
You can guess how their time ended with just your toes.
But they had just returned to the capital when such a heinous act occurred. Doesn’t the prince think that all the ministers in the court are stupid and don’t understand that there is something fishy going on?
The prince was really impatient, but playing such a trick in front of the two of them was undoubtedly seeking death.
Su Yue curled her lips, and decided to let the prince take a good look later to see if his well-intentioned trick could succeed.
The two men stood in front of the dragon bed and looked at the emperor lying on the bed. He no longer had the domineering look of the past, but was just a skeleton covered in skin and bones.
Only the emperor's head was exposed. His eyes were closed, his eye sockets were deeply sunken, his face was fleshless, and his skin was as white as paper, looking like it was coated with a layer of wax, so white that it was frightening.
His breathing was shallow, hanging on by a thread.
"Father, I am back."
When Murong Li saw the emperor like this, his eyes couldn't help but get hot. He knelt down in front of the emperor's bed and called out softly.
Seeing the emperor's fate, no matter how hard Murong Li's heart was, it softened at this moment.
No matter how useless this person was, he was still the one who gave him life. At this moment, he couldn't hate him.
The emperor did not respond. Murong Li looked up at the prince, who seemed to be smiling. "Prince, why is there no imperial physician to serve our father when he is so seriously ill?"
In this palace, apart from the three of them lying on the bed with the emperor, there was not even a eunuch to serve him closely.
The prince curled his lips and said, "Isn't it good for Father to be like this? He's been tired for half his life and it's time to rest. Look, Father is like this and still doesn't want to leave. Doesn't he still want to see you? Isn't this fulfilling his wish?"
Murong Li's eyes were icy cold. If looks could kill, he would have killed that beast. "What does this mean, Prince?"
The Crown Prince still smiled brightly, and said with great pride, "That's exactly what my brother was thinking. Now that you've met and your brother's wish has been fulfilled, it's time for me to fulfill my wish."
"What if I don't want to?"
The prince's expression changed, and his aura suddenly became fierce. He said in a cold voice: "Once you enter the Taigan Palace, if there is anything you don't want to do, I will make you agree."
Once you enter Taigan Palace, what tricks can you come up with?
snort!
The prince looked at the two men as if they were two dead people.
Murong Li frowned coldly: "You really can't wait, but unfortunately you made a wrong calculation."
As soon as he finished speaking, Murong Li suddenly jumped up and grabbed the prince's neck, quickly pushed him against the wall, and immediately pressed his acupoints, making him unable to speak and unable to move.
This sudden scene left the prince dumbfounded. He opened his mouth wide and stared with eyes wide open to express his anger.
Su Yue then slowly came up to the two of them, reached out and patted the prince's face, which was black with anger. Murong Li immediately took her hand away when he saw it, glared at her unhappily, and slapped the prince in the face.
Su Yue's mouth twitched, and she sighed as she looked at the prince. The prince who was so arrogant just now has now been easily turned into a fish on the chopping board. The prince must be very angry.
Su Yue shook her head. She felt no sense of accomplishment at having subdued the Crown Prince so easily. She was furious and said, "I never expected such a reversal. I wanted to torture you to vent my anger, but I have to pull the Emperor back from the brink of death."
Su Yue looked at the Taigan Palace and said, "It's all thanks to you that you surrounded this palace like a solid wall. Today, you also broke out of the Taigan Palace. Watch carefully."
The prince was furious, his eyes were almost blazing with anger. This bitch actually wanted to save that old thing. Once that old thing woke up, he would be doomed. He was filled with hatred, but unfortunately he couldn't move or speak.
The prince was regretting it so much at this moment. Why did he bring these two people in? Why did he meet these old guys?
If we want to do something, we should send the old guy back to the west first and let these two bitches take the blame.
"Regret it?" Murong Li saw through the prince's thoughts.
The prince's eyes widened with anger.
"Hehe... what's the point of regretting? You will pay the price for your actions. You are a beast. You even killed your own father."
Murong Li slapped the prince hard again, and both sides became symmetrical and swollen.
No matter how Murong Li vented his anger, Su Yue came to the bed and took out the spiritual spring water from the space to feed the emperor.
Only then did she carefully feel the emperor's pulse. In fact, she knew without feeling the pulse that the emperor was poisoned. It was the kind of poison that consumed vitality. The emperor's vitality was almost exhausted, and he was like a dead person.
This symptom was recorded in ancient books and was considered a strange poison. She had no antidote and could only use spring water to slowly relieve it.
Moreover, the spiritual spring water contains rich vitality, which can replenish the vitality in the emperor's body and wake him up.
But it will still take some effort to completely detoxify the emperor's body.
If you don't detoxify, you can still take the soup made from spiritual spring water and spiritual medicine in the space, as well as the food produced in the space, which can also detoxify you, but it will take a little longer.
As the spiritual spring water was drunk, the emperor's vitality was slowly replenished. His pale face took on some color and his breath became heavier.
"What should we do with this guy? The emperor still has some time to wake up."
When everything was fine for the time being, Su Yue asked Murong Li.
Murong Li had almost finished torturing the Crown Prince. He threw him to the ground and kicked him twice on the butt. "Everyone outside is his people. We can't let anyone know what's going on inside. We'll stay here for now and make a decision after Father wakes up."
"Okay, but I'm a little hungry."
Su Yue touched her stomach and said that she was really hungry. She looked around the palace and saw that there was nothing to eat. She couldn't take food from the space in front of the prince. When she took the spiritual spring water before, it could only be seen that she took it out from her sleeve.
She glanced at the prince lying on the ground, and Murong Li understood immediately. She quickly pointed out the sleep signal to him, and the prince reluctantly closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Su Yue smiled, took out food from the space, and the two of them started to feast on it at the table.
After the two men had eaten their fill, they did not release the prince from his acupuncture, but instead stayed in front of the emperor's dragon bed.
Su Yue gave the emperor some spiritual spring water from time to time, and also boiled some medicinal soup for him to drink in the space, taking a two-pronged approach.
