Chapter 254 The Emperor's Soul-Torture
It wasn't easy to finish, so he took out a porcelain bottle and held it in both hands.
When I heard it was the antidote, I was shocked, but his expression immediately changed: "You actually have the antidote, why don't you send it to me?"
It was not easy to get rid of the poison in my body. I haven't recovered at all. I am so skinny that I can't even be blown away by the wind.
But he is in good spirits today, he was just as sick as before.
The Crown Princess has always been dignified and elegant. How could she be like this? It's as if the Crown Prince has died.
Out of curiosity, she stood there and listened, only to find out that the prince had been thrown into the Sky Prison.
She ran back in a panic and told Jun Wushuang.
"boom."
Jun Wushuang heard a loud noise in her head, her eyes went black, and she was about to faint. The maid was so scared that she supported her, only to realize that she had scared the concubine.
She quickly called the other maids and servants, and they all helped Jun Wushuang back and put her on the bed.
"Concubine, please don't be anxious, otherwise the little grandson in your belly will also be anxious. He is your life-saving talisman now, and you can't let anything happen to him."
Seeing Jun Wushuang looked like he had lost all hope in life, the girl felt extremely guilty and immediately spoke to comfort him.
After hearing what the maid said, Jun Wushuang gradually calmed down. Yes, she was pregnant with royal blood, the emperor's only grandson.
This child is her amulet. Nothing must happen to her at this time. If she has a miscarriage, the consequence will definitely be that she will lose her life.
Jun Wushuang opened her eyes, nodded to the maids and servants, then closed her eyes again, tears streaming down her cheeks like water.
She felt very uncomfortable. No matter how she planned or calculated, she could not escape this outcome.
In her previous life, she was implicated by Murong Yi when she married him. This time, after marrying the prince, she will be implicated as well. The Jun family will still not escape the fate of being executed.
She had died once, and after experiencing such a thing, she did not collapse to the point of losing control. After a period of sadness, she wondered in her heart how to escape this fate?
The first thing to do is to save the baby in her belly. It can only save her life, but saving her life is only temporary. After giving birth to the baby, her life will be difficult to save.
The child's life should be safe. At least the emperor will not kill his only grandson.
At most, he would be demoted to a commoner and his path to imperial power would be cut off.
But she was in trouble. If the prince was executed, everyone in the prince's mansion would not be spared. How could she escape?
As for the fate of the Jun family, she can no longer care about it now. It all depends on her grandfather's own methods.
She had reminded the prince before, but she blamed herself for being too insignificant and not having her words heard by the prince.
My grandfather tried his best and sent people from the Jun family, but he still couldn't kill Murong Li, and he also lost the lives of four uncles from the side branches.
Jun Wushuang was filled with hatred. He didn't know what kind of person Murong Li was. No matter what he did, he couldn't kill him, and now he had brought such a huge disaster upon them.
When Murong Li brought Concubine Yun to Taigan Palace, all the civil and military officials knelt in the palace, led by the Queen, who cried bitterly and begged for mercy.
"Your Majesty, you can't throw the prince into the prison. He's your son. You're unconscious, and he's helping you manage the government. That's what he has to do. You can't just watch the court be left unattended. Your Majesty, please have mercy!"
The emperor was now being supported by a eunuch and leaning against the head of the bed, while Su Yue was standing beside the bed with her head lowered.
The emperor glared at the queen. She was still making excuses for the prince at this time. The prince attacked him blatantly. If he died, the prince's behavior would really be as the queen said.
"Your Majesty, what the Empress said is not without reason. Please have mercy and revoke your order!"
A minister from the prince's party immediately pleaded for the prince.
Once there was one, there were two. Another adult said, "Your Majesty, ever since you became ill, the Crown Prince has been doing his best to share your worries. It was only during these days when you were in a coma that the Crown Prince used his personal guards to protect you."
"Yes, Your Majesty, the Crown Prince is already the Crown Prince. There is no reason for him to do such a treasonous thing."
…
Various pleas for mercy for the prince were heard, but they were all from the prince's party. When the other ministers heard those pleas for mercy, they didn't know how to refute them. To this day, they still didn't know why the prince was thrown into the Sky Prison.
The emperor watched coldly as half of the ministers pleaded for the prince. No one saw his horrible look. Why was that?
He snorted coldly: "You haven't done anything treasonous yet, but poisoning me is not enough. You are worse than animals. And don't you have eyes or brains? Don't you think about why I became like this when I was fine?
Idiots like you are not worthy to stand in my court.
If it weren't for the Fourth Brother and his wife returning, would I have woken up today? I'm afraid I would have passed away by now, the Crown Prince would have ascended the throne, and the Queen would have become the Empress Dowager."
The emperor was furious and spoke too quickly, coughing violently. Su Yue quickly fed him some more spiritual spring water.
"this?"
The ministers were speechless. They didn't dare to talk nonsense about the prince poisoning. Wasn't the emperor's scolding just now calling them stupid?
Who dares to throw away his head at this time?
"Ah, Your Majesty, this is impossible. The Crown Prince would never do such a thing. He is already the Crown Prince. There is no need for him to do such a stupid thing. Isn't this just destroying himself?"
The Queen didn't believe it at all and argued loudly. She knew that the Prince was always vicious, but she believed that he would never do such a thing as poisoning the Emperor.
The emperor has been in poor health and has only a few years left to live. Moreover, the crown prince is already the crown prince. When the emperor dies, he will be the next emperor. Why would he do something that would bring about his own destruction?
The queen thought the emperor was slandering the prince.
"You don't believe your good son poisoned me? Then why did my health become like this in just a few days? Even my imperial physician was turned away? Everyone around me has changed, so why aren't ministers allowed to visit me?"
"The Fourth Prince and his wife were brought here as soon as they returned today. Isn't his purpose obvious? To kill me, let him take the blame, and then let that evil creature ascend to the throne. And why are all those ministers waiting at the palace gate? Why is that?"
"And you, I'm so sick, and as my queen, have you ever come to see me? I'm afraid you wish I'd die soon. The evil creature you raised is just like you."
The emperor almost fainted from anger again, seeing this heartless and cruel mother and son.
During the time he was in a coma, the Queen never even looked at him. She was even worse than the other concubines. Although they were kept out by the Crown Prince, at least they all came to see him.
