…
As for the reason why the late empress poisoned all of the late emperor's children, it is also a sad story.
The late emperor feared that their family's achievements overshadowed his own, and that the late empress's maternal family would seize power and support a puppet emperor.
So they drugged the late empress, preventing her from conceiving and making her mistakenly believe it was her own fault.
Upon learning the truth, the late empress was immediately overwhelmed by intense hatred.
Later, the late empress also heard that the late emperor had found some reasons to seize power from her family and had used a pretext to execute her family members.
Driven by double hatred, the late empress committed the act of cruelly harming all imperial offspring. He didn't want her to have children, so she would make sure he had no descendants.
Since the confiscation of their property and the extermination of their clan were inevitable, what was the late empress afraid of? If she was going to die, she would take him with her.
The late empress had no idea that there was a Xie Wenjun, and even more unexpectedly, the late emperor had only drunk a little bit of the poisoned wine before discovering that it was poisoned.
Therefore, it only causes mild poisoning and bodily damage, and there is no major problem.
That's why he was able to control Xie Wenjun for over a decade, turning Xie Wenjun into the tyrant he is today.
…
However, the late emperor underestimated Xie Wenjun. Xie Wenjun, also with the idea of dying together with the emperor, took the unexpected risks and seized the right opportunity to kill the late emperor.
Xie Wenjun was also fortunate to find a divine physician at a crucial moment, who significantly reduced the poison controlling him imposed by the emperor. However, some residual poison could not be completely eliminated, causing the emperor to suffer from headaches. This was one of the reasons that increased the emperor's violent nature.
Anyone who frequently suffers from headaches will feel irritable and have negative thoughts.

Xie Wenjun turned around and looked at Wan Ge in front of him again: "How can I believe what you're saying?"
"Then how does my husband want me to prove it?"
"That's your problem. From today onwards, you will be confined here for three months."
Just then, a guard beside Xie Wenjun asked, puzzled, "Your Majesty, what about the people in the Empress's palace...?"
"Take that lowly maid away and execute her. The others who failed to keep a close watch on the Empress are guilty of dereliction of duty and should all be demoted to do the hardest work."
Upon hearing this, the others were moved to tears and immediately kowtowed to thank the emperor for sparing their lives.
After Xie Wenjun finished speaking, he prepared to leave, but Wan Ge immediately got up. However, she was weak and could not walk steadily. She almost fell while walking forward and grabbed the other person's clothes as she fell.
Xie Wenjun turned around and hugged him before he completely fell.
"What else do you want to do... um..."
Wan Ge wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him directly, still looking pitiful and pleading: "I really know I was wrong. If my husband wants me to be punished, I will stay here obediently. But husband... could you come and see me more often?"
After Xie Wenjun settled the person, he immediately left his palace.
Seeing the other party leave in a panic, Wan Ge could hardly contain her smile.
When he turned around, he met Yun Tao's resentful gaze as she was being held down.
Wan Ge then looked at the people beside her and said, "Aren't you going to take her away?"
"It's Her Majesty the Empress." The guards, realizing what was happening, immediately took the person away.
Meanwhile, the female official standing to the side also instructed the others to prepare to go with her to see what tasks they were about to undertake.
