In that illusory and hazy dream, Emperor Rongsheng seemed to travel through time and space, witnessing his own tragic future.
The sight before him filled him with anguish and terror.
He witnessed the ruthless Lin Mushen wantonly eliminating dissidents and mercilessly beheading princes and meritorious officials.
The twisted and ferocious Consort Zheng turned his former favorite concubine into a human pig.
The court was filled with the Duke of Zheng's cronies, but most of them were good-for-nothings.
When the enemy army aggressively invaded the border, not a single official in the court had the courage to step forward and rush to the battlefield to fight the enemy.
The general's family, loyal to Daqing, suffered the calamity of having their entire clan implicated! The emperor watched helplessly as innocent people shed blood, his heart filled with unbearable grief, and tears streamed down his face uncontrollably.
However, what shocked him even more was that he actually saw the heir of the Marquis of Pingyang secretly and cleverly place evidence of treason in the residence of the General of Might, causing loyal officials to suffer injustice.
After succeeding, Lin Mushen revealed a hideous and twisted ugly face, and went on to exterminate the entire Weiwu General's Mansion.
Just then, Emperor Rongsheng suddenly realized something extremely strange: Hadn't the entire Pingyang Marquis's family been wiped out long ago? So why was Lu Yanke, the heir of the Pingyang Marquis, still alive?
Could it be... that all of this was just a terrifying, chilling nightmare?
But what's happening right before my eyes is so real, how could it be fake?
Emperor Rongsheng tried his best to open his heavy eyelids, which seemed to be pressed down by a thousand-pound weight.
He struggled to break free from the terrifying nightmare that clung to him like a demon.
Because he knew that if he didn't wake up soon, he wouldn't be able to stop the ruthless Lin Mushen from continuing to do evil, and he couldn't just stand by and watch that inhuman and dehumanizing tragedy unfold!
Emperor Rongsheng roared and howled hysterically in the deepest part of his soul.
He heard a series of urgent and anxious shouts.
"emperor!"
"Father!"
Emperor Rongsheng used the last bit of strength in his body to finally manage to slowly open his tightly closed eyes a crack.
His vision was still blurry, but even so, he could still vaguely see a familiar figure.
"Father!" With a cry full of surprise and excitement, Lin Muheng's handsome yet slightly tired face suddenly entered Emperor Rongsheng's hazy vision.
Emperor Rongsheng shook his head in disbelief, trying to see more clearly.
However, no matter how much he shook his head, Lin Muheng's figure remained clearly in front of him, showing no sign of fading away.
Lin Muheng is not dead, his son is still alive!!!
At this moment, Emperor Rongsheng felt an indescribable joy and relief welling up in his heart; it all seemed like a dream.
He actually woke up?
And he even managed to survive from the brink of death?
To confirm that this was not an illusion, Emperor Rongsheng trembled as he reached out his right hand and pinched his brow hard.
Suddenly, a piercing pain struck him, causing him to gasp in shock.
At the same time, he fully regained consciousness—he really wasn't dead!!!
"Father!" Seeing that Emperor Rongsheng had reacted, Lin Muheng could no longer suppress his excitement, and his eyes instantly welled up with tears.
He quickly stepped forward, tightly grasped Rong Shengdi's slightly cold hands, and asked with concern, "How are you feeling? Is anything bothering you?"
After saying that, Lin Muheng turned to Imperial Physician Zhou and said, "Quickly, come and see how Father is!"
Imperial Physician Zhou's hands trembled.
The Emperor has truly awakened!
This is simply a miracle!
Your Highness, you truly have miraculous healing skills!
Lin Mushen, who was standing to the side, was pale as paper, without any color in his face, as if he had suffered a huge blow, and his whole face looked ashen.
His eyes widened in disbelief. This... how could this be? Could it be that everything the Taoist priest said was utter nonsense? You must know that although there are still many months left until the three-month deadline, his father is clearly on his deathbed.
Which link in the chain went wrong?
Just then, Jiang Chuwei was also hurriedly invited over.
When Emperor Rongsheng saw Jiang Chuwei, a complex and indescribable emotion welled up in his heart.
At that moment, he was completely unaware that it was this woman in front of him who had snatched him back from the clutches of the King of Hell.
In Emperor Rongsheng's dream, the husband whom Jiang Chuwei had wholeheartedly supported ruthlessly slaughtered all of her family members, and in the end, Jiang Chuwei herself also died tragically in the Jiang family's inner quarters.
However, Jiang Chuwei was completely baffled by the complex expression in the emperor's eyes.
Perhaps the Emperor is still unconscious and hasn't regained his senses.
Jiang Chuwei stepped forward, carefully took the emperor's pulse, nodded slightly to indicate that it was the same as what Imperial Physician Zhou had said, and said softly, "Father is out of danger."
Upon hearing this, Lin Mushen, who was already dumbfounded, was completely stunned, and even forgot to pretend to be a dutiful son as he usually did.
He just stood there like a wooden statue, his mouth wide open, but he couldn't utter a single word.
On the contrary, the ministers, upon hearing the news, couldn't wait to rush forward and gather around the dragon bed.
The crowd exclaimed all at once, "Your Majesty! You've finally woken up! We were all so worried!"
Emperor Rongsheng slowly raised his head, his gaze sweeping over the concerned faces of the officials—the Minister of Justice, the Minister of War, the Minister of Rites, the Minister of Personnel, and so on. These important officials all wore expressions of joy, their excitement evident in their words.
Upon seeing Lin Mushen and the Duke of Zheng, a flash of anger crossed Emperor Rongsheng's eyes.
He turned to Lin Mushen and said, "Prince Jin, why aren't you moving? Have you gone mad with joy at seeing me awake?"
Lin Mushen seemed to wake from a dream, "Father! You're finally awake! You scared me to death!"
Emperor Rongsheng sneered inwardly, his face showing only paleness. He then looked at Duke Zheng, "What about Minister Zheng? Have you gone mad with joy too?"
