When Murong Yan opened his eyes, he saw Ming Liuli arguing with the Imperial Master through the window curtains.
The Imperial Master asked Ming Liuli to stop the petition as soon as possible, saying that if he delayed any longer, he would be punished by the powerful will of the people.
Ming Liuli was actually stalling for time.
If one day she gets pregnant, both the Imperial Master and Murong Yan will die.
Ming Liuli was in a dilemma:
"Wait a little longer. The Ming family is already thinking of a solution. They are now dispatching troops to the palace gate."
The Imperial Master couldn't control his anxiety but couldn't hide his weak state:
"If I die, the emperor will wake up, and then we'll see how the Ming family and the queen deal with it."
When Murong Yan heard this, he knew that the imperial teacher was afraid of the people's blood letters.
What about the blood of the emperor? Will it hurt him?
He bit his finger and let the liquid drip onto the bed sheet. He quickly pulled out the sheet and strangled the Imperial Master from behind.
The Imperial Master was caught off guard by this sudden change, and his body, which was already on the verge of dissipating, was crushed by this final blow.
Ming Liuli looked at the sudden change in front of her in shock. She was not sure how much Murong Yan had heard.
She now has only two choices. One is to let the masters in her palace kill Murong Yan, and the other is to directly break off relations with him.
The second is to pretend that he knows nothing and continue to live by relying on Murong Yan's feelings for the former prince.
Ming Liuli looked at Murong Yan's aura, hesitated for a moment, and then chose the second option.
Her face was full of surprise and tears instantly welled up in her eyes.
"Your Majesty, you are finally awake. That's great! I can finally face the late Crown Prince. Otherwise, he would blame me for not taking good care of his only brother."
Murong Yan did not hide his disgust at all. He looked at Ming Liuli as if he had seen something dirty.
"Stop pretending. I know everything that happened during this period."
Ming Liuli shook her head with tears in her eyes: "How could the emperor misunderstand me like this? I was deceived by the imperial teacher. At that time, the emperor suddenly fell into a coma, and I..."
Murong Yan pointed his sword at Ming Liuli with an impatient look on his face:
"I don't have time to watch your performance."
He had to rush to save Xiao Tangyuan, and he didn't know if she was scared. He suddenly appeared, flirted with her, and then suddenly disappeared.
Seeing that Murong Yan didn't believe him at all, Ming Liuli sneered:
"Then the Emperor doesn't even consider whether he can leave this room."
After she finished speaking, she clapped her hands, and outside, the sound of weapons clashing could be heard.
Long Ying had taken advantage of the Imperial Master's weakness and the disappearance of the formation to send his most elite secret guards into the Queen's palace.
A moment later, all the queen's men were killed.
Ming Liuli was captured.
Murong Yan led a team of secret guards and quickly rushed to the Prime Minister's Mansion outside the palace.

Prime Minister's Mansion
Seeing that Danruo had left the table after eating little, Mrs. Su was afraid that it would affect the effectiveness of the medicine, so she deliberately waited a little longer before speaking to the other ladies.
"My daughter-in-law hasn't come back for such a long time. I'm afraid she might have encountered something. Why don't we go and take a look together?"
The other ladies looked at the dark sky outside. It was almost evening, and it was strange that Su had asked them to come.
Now that Su had spoken, everyone had a vague guess that they were probably being used as tools.
They had seen Su's trick many times in the inner house. It was such a pity for her beautiful daughter-in-law.
But Su was the mother of Prime Minister Mu and their husbands' superior, so they did not dare to refuse and could only follow Su reluctantly.
After Yuchuan and others found out that they had been cheated, they wanted to go back but found that they had already been poisoned by the incense.
Yuchuan used a hairpin to scratch her arm and made it bleed, using the pain to keep herself awake. She knew that something must have happened to the girl, and she had to go back to save her.
After she returned to the yard with difficulty, Long Ying gave her the antidote and whispered a few words to her.
Then a group of people from the Su family came over in a mighty procession.
When I pushed open the half-open courtyard door, I heard a woman crying from inside the house.
Su couldn't hide her excitement, and she pushed open the door with quick steps. The ladies behind her were still in the yard.
Seeing that Danruo was the only one in the room, Su began to look in the closet, under the bed, and by opening the window to see if there was anyone hiding down there.
The ugly way he ate made the other ladies frown.
When Danruo saw them coming, he hurriedly put away the scrolls and letters on the table.
But they were scattered all over the floor in a hurry, allowing everyone to clearly see the woman in the scroll and the scattered letters.
Su was illiterate, and she didn't know why the ladies all picked up the letter and exchanged it to read it, and their expressions were very strange.
She only knew that the medicine this time was brought back from the palace by her son and there was no antidote. If it weren't for the man, Danruo would definitely not be able to sit here as if nothing had happened.
Unless she didn't touch today's food and wine.
But that was definitely impossible, because he watched Danruo swallow it without blinking.
So the man arranged by Danruo must be hidden somewhere. She winked at the servants and asked them to search Danruo's yard.
Among them was a servant who could read and write but was sold into slavery because her family fell into poverty. She trembled all over and reminded Su that she should first check the situation inside the house.
Su asked the ladies in confusion:
"What are you all looking at?"
Among them, Mrs. Wang was quick-witted and knew that this was a good opportunity to pull Mu Peiyuan down. This way, there would be a vacancy above and her husband could move up.
Moreover, in this contest between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, it is obvious that Lin's level is much higher. What's more, Lin's father has a golden medal of immunity from death, which shows that Lord Lin is in great favor.
