The eldest prince has now effectively taken control of the emperor.
He hasn't figured out what he wants yet.
He simply wanted to avenge his mother.
All sorts of poisons were prepared on the bed.
He actually had quite a few soldiers around him.
If we are discovered by others, we can easily escape unscathed.
"Eunuch Cao, please come in."
Xiao Dongyang sat to the side, playing with an imperial seal in his hand.
This is something he probably cared about a lot before.
If he had such a preview, it would be an incredible blessing for him.
But for him now, he's practically useless.
The most important thing now is probably to slowly torture the emperor to death.
If a single blow were to kill the emperor, it would be far too lenient on him.
After he finished speaking, the emperor became alert.
His fists clenched tightly as he stared incredulously at Xiao Dongyang, who was sitting on the couch next to him.
Why did you let him go?
"Useless thing!"
This Eunuch Cao was someone I had finally managed to capture.
If he were released now, wouldn't all our previous efforts be wasted?
However, the eldest prince wouldn't listen to a word the emperor said.
Or rather, the angrier he gets, the happier he becomes.
The door creaked open.
Eunuch Cao walked in.
He suffered greatly in the prison these past few days.
The fat on her face has disappeared, and she is now a little thinner.
"This servant greets Your Majesty."
When Eunuch Cao said this, he bowed as usual.
But the smugness on his face was undeniable.
His smug, petty manner infuriated the emperor so much that he almost jumped out of bed.
However, because of the poisoning I suffered yesterday, I can't move my body and can only sit up in bed.
He glared angrily at Eunuch Cao.
Originally, they thought that no outsiders would interfere in the matters between the father and son.
But now...
When Eunuch Cao came in, everything changed.
"You're still alive?"
When the emperor said this, his eyes became particularly ferocious.
His fists were clenched tightly together, as if he harbored deep hatred for the person in front of him.
With his delicate fingers raised, Eunuch Cao walked up to the Emperor.
"Your Majesty, please don't be so angry."
“I didn’t die, so naturally someone saved me. Therefore, Your Majesty cannot do everything as you wish.”
Grandpa Cao looks smug and disgusting.
The eldest prince smiled slightly, feeling a little relieved as he watched this scene.
Moreover, the Emperor knew that the Second Prince and Zhou Zhizhi were both far away and could not possibly come over at this time.
If things are the same now as before, there's really no difference; we're still isolated and helpless.
Zhou Zhizhi never imagined things would develop this way.
I don't know what to say when I see this.
If the emperor dies, everything will fall into chaos.
The eldest prince and the third prince will also try to seize the throne.
There may even be other ambitious individuals who would be willing to get involved and take a share of the profits.
Therefore, the emperor cannot die now.
And since none of my own possessions have disappeared, why should I make these individuals happy?
"Eunuch Cao, your methods were quite impressive before. Now it's up to you."
“Before my father, I also wanted him to suffer the same painful price as my mother. If that doesn’t work, then you will be the one to pay the price.”
The eldest prince spoke very clearly, and that eunuch Cao knew that he was able to escape from that cannibalistic paradise entirely thanks to the eldest prince.
When Zhou Zhizhi saw Eunuch Cao holding a dagger and stabbing it directly at the Emperor's arm, she abruptly turned off the screen.
That is indeed quite cruel.
However, the eldest prince's mother did die a very pitiful death.
Zhou Zhizhi, who was still sitting next to her, was startled.
The people Xiao Xiyou was discussing matters with sensed the commotion and glanced over.
"What's wrong?"
Zhou Zhizhi's dark complexion looked a little off.
He quickly shook his head: "It's nothing, just a bit of a headache."
The Emperor's current situation is indeed quite dangerous.
Moreover, his health wasn't very good, and if he continued to be tormented, he wouldn't live much longer.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Xiao Xiyou, showing concern, walked over directly.
Zhou Zhizhi's face was extremely pale.
Because they knew that if the emperor died, there would definitely be a lot of trouble.
Thinking of this, she slowly raised her head and looked at Xiao Xiyou standing in front of her.
"Your Highness, let's go back."
"I want to go back. Can we leave today?"
This was the first time Zhou Zhizhi had shown such an expression.
Xiao Xiyou felt as if his heart had been jolted.
"good."
He finally uttered those words after a long pause.
Although I don't know what Zhou Zhizhi is really thinking, if it's something she wants to do, then I'm definitely willing to help her.
Zhou Zhizhi was extremely nervous the whole way.
Even if I wanted to rest, I never thought about resting for too long.
Even two groups of horses died from exhaustion.
After returning to the General's Mansion, Zhou Zhizhi was restless and uneasy.
Xiao Xiyou originally wanted to return to his palace, but he couldn't bear to leave Zhou Zhizhi in this state.
We can only offer some assistance here.
Zhou Zhizhi is still thinking about what kind of excuse to use to tell Xiao Xiyou.
Only then could he be allowed to stay in the palace.
"Your Highness, why don't we go to the palace first to report back to the Emperor?"
As Zhou Zhizhi spoke, she grabbed the Second Prince's wrist.
The second prince stared intently at his wrist.
In fact, the time allotted to them by the Emperor is still a long way off.
Xiao Xiyou didn't know what this person was thinking, but after hesitating for a moment, he nodded.
There are some things Zhou Zhizhi is unwilling to tell me, but I know she always has her reasons.
"If you want to, then let's go, but are you physically capable right now?"
Xiao Xiyou glanced at Zhou Zhizhi from head to toe.
There doesn't seem to be anything that feels a little off.
His intuition is actually very accurate.
If Zhou Zhizhi said that, then something must have happened.
But you can't just say it to yourself.
When they thought of this, their expressions became quite serious.
