In the Fourth Prince's mansion, the Fourth Prince was lying alone on the bed, with maids bustling around him.
However, these people also did not know that the Fourth Prince was awake, although they took good care of him.
But it still did not meet his requirements. The Fourth Prince wanted to change a group of maids when he woke up.
Of course he was not cursed. After all, being cursed is always dangerous. If he was really cursed.
If an accident happened, such as Lu Sheng did not give the elixir, or the emperor did not give the elixir to himself but gave it to other princes.
If there is no other way to save myself, then I will really die.
Could he die? Of course not. He was going to be the emperor, how could he die like this?
He won't take this kind of risk, so he can only pretend, but pretending is also a technical job.
After all, Emperor Dagan also has capable people like Master Ku Lian.
It is still possible to tell whether your soul is cursed or not.
But after all, I am the caster, so of course there are other ways.
It’s just that the Fourth Prince’s cultivation is not profound, so other people from the Netherworld Sect have to do it for him.
The curse used a trick to confuse Master Ku Lian, but he was actually still awake.
The same was true for Zhao Que, but Zhao Que used an imperial edict to create the illusion that he was cursed.
One is a trick used by the caster, and the other is an imperial decree.
Master Ku Lian was unable to detect any of the two men's movements.
However, as time passed, the Fourth Prince gradually became anxious.
If Lu Sheng failed to send the antidote, he would find it difficult to find a reasonable excuse to lift the curse.
Although he already had a backup plan, such as finding other elixirs, it was ultimately difficult to completely convince his father.
The best way at the moment is for Lu Sheng to use his elixir to save himself.
Regardless of whether the pill has any effect on the actual curse.
I just need a reason, a reason that can convince my father.
At this time, there was still no movement, which made the Fourth Prince a little confused, but he could only lie in the house.
That's the problem with this plan, even though it can kill a few opponents.
But I am not very proactive.
But there is no other way. After all, it is good to be able to deal with such an opponent in one go.
Is there any perfect plan in this world?
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion outside the mansion.
This kind of noise would naturally not occur under normal circumstances. The Fourth Prince needs a quiet environment to rest.
"Everyone, may I ask where the Fourth Prince is?
I have received orders from His Majesty to deliver the elixir to the Fourth Prince."
Upon hearing this, the Fourth Prince seemed familiar with the voice. It was the Grand Steward, the person most trusted by the Emperor.
And the servants in the mansion would not stop them.
He quickly took the chief steward and headed towards the fourth prince's room.
The Fourth Prince quickly held his breath and did not move.
The chief steward came hurriedly with the imperial treasure box in his hand and presented it to the bedside of the fourth prince.
When the treasure box was opened, a strong fragrance of elixir instantly filled the room.
Even the Fourth Prince, who was lying on the bed, could smell this strong fragrance.
Soon, the chief steward put the pill into the Fourth Prince's mouth.
The fourth prince only felt a powerful medicinal force flowing to his limbs and bones, making him feel refreshed.
However, it is not clear where this medicine came from, whether it was sent by Lu Sheng.
So I didn't get up immediately, wanting to wait a little longer.
However, unexpectedly, the steward did not leave and stood in the room waiting.
The chief steward suddenly said, "That's strange, why is this pill not working?
Could it be that Lu Sheng deceived Your Majesty? This is a serious matter. Well, I will go back and report it now."
The Fourth Prince was stunned when he heard this. He had never taken Lu Sheng's elixir, nor had he been cursed.
It was difficult for the Fourth Prince to tell whether this elixir had the effect of enhancing the soul.
Because he was practicing some evil arts, although it could strengthen his soul, his cultivation was not enough after all.
He couldn't sense the changes in his soul either, but after taking the pill, he seemed to feel a slight strengthening of his soul.
But he naturally had other ways to prevent this embarrassing situation.
If Emperor Da Gan gave me a lot of pills, how could I know whether they were effective?
He was a meticulous person and had thought of this. He had already asked the leader of the Netherworld Cult to prepare other things.
That is the pendant that is close to your skin. If it breaks, it means that the curse is lifted.
So he felt the pendant and clearly felt that it had broken. It seemed that this pill was real and could resolve the curse.
After all, this pendant was given to him personally by the leader of the Netherworld Cult, so there is no way it could be wrong.
He also had no suspicion that there was something wrong with the leader of the Netherworld Cult.
The Fourth Prince, thinking of this, suddenly uttered a weak and hoarse voice as the chief steward was about to step out of the room: "Water..."
The Grand Steward paused, a flicker of surprise in his eyes. He had already demonstrated this exact trick on other princes.
Be it the Seventh Prince, the Sixth Prince...or any other prince, none of them showed any sign of anything.
He had personally witnessed Lu Sheng casually refining this elixir and knew full well that it had no real effect.
Moreover, before the Fourth Prince, several other princes had already been checked.
This medicine has no effect at all.
The only use of this pill may be to serve as bait to try to lure out the real culprit behind the scenes.
