The palace maid described in detail everything Jiang Ranli had eaten, used, and touched, but none of them had anything to do with her poisoning today.
Seeing that he couldn't find the answer and Jiang Ranli lying there quietly, Yinzhen lost control instantly. He scolded and punished everyone in the hall. He thought Jiang Ranli would wake up, but the result disappointed him.
If it were normal, Jiang Ranli would definitely plead for mercy for everyone when she saw him punishing them like this, but now she was in a coma and couldn't even stay awake, so how could she care about others?
The imperial physician could not find the cause of Jiang Ranli's poisoning, so he could only give her conservative treatment to prevent her condition from getting worse. Then he immediately left. He did not dare to stay here for even a second, for fear that the emperor would be angry again.
After dismissing everyone in the hall, Yinzhen sat beside the bed, looking at Jiang Ranli quietly. His usually cold eyes were now filled with doubt, confusion, heartache and reluctance.
"Li'er, what do you want me to do?"
Yinzhen muttered to himself, and his big hand touched Jiang Ranli's cheek. The instant contact made him feel extremely satisfied. He wanted to keep the person in front of him by his side, but the person in front of him would rather take poison than stay.
Even though the imperial physicians and palace maids could not find out why Jiang Ranli was poisoned, Yinzhen knew that she was not framed by someone, but had taken the poison herself.
Thinking of this, Yinzhen smiled bitterly. Perhaps he had done too many bad things, so God punished him like this.
In the first half of his life, he never wanted to harm anyone, nor did he have any intention of the throne, but the eldest prince and the crown prince forced him. He knew that the eighth prince, the ninth prince, the tenth prince, and the fourteenth prince had never been interested in the throne, but the dispute between the crown prince and the eldest prince intensified, dragging them all into it.
In order to protect themselves, they could only sink deeper and deeper into the whirlpool. Later, the eldest prince was defeated, the crown prince was defeated, and the third prince was also defeated, but they were already deeply trapped and could not save themselves, so they could only continue to move forward.
If the Thirteenth Prince had not been imprisoned, if he had not been surrounded by dangers, if he had not been unable to protect the people he wanted to protect and the people he wanted, how could he have ended up in this situation now?
Yinzhen looked at Jiang Ranli. He did not try to excuse himself. He admitted that he had selfish motives. He wanted the throne for three reasons: first, to protect himself, second, for Thirteen, third, for Jiang Ranli, and fourth... fourth, he also wanted the supreme position. Otherwise, how could he be worthy of the people who had followed him through thick and thin, how could he be worthy of the people who had placed their entire fortunes on him.
In the final moments of the fight for the throne, there was no turning back.
Thinking back on the bloody first half of his life, Yinzhen felt a pang of pain in his heart. It was said that as an emperor, everything in the world was at his fingertips, but he still couldn't get what he wanted.
"Li'er, what do you want me to do?" Yinzhen murmured again.
This time, Jiang Ranli opened her eyes and she also heard what Yinzhen said.
Seeing that she was awake, Yinzhen looked happy and asked hurriedly, "Are you awake? Are you feeling unwell?"
Jiang Ranli turned her head and looked around. It was still the Yangxin Palace, but it was different from her dream. She didn't want to talk, and she couldn't speak because she felt extremely uncomfortable.
"Li'er, what's wrong with you?" Yinzhen asked worriedly. The pain in her eyes stung his eyes.
After a long time, Jiang Ranli felt a little better and turned to look at Yinzhen.
Seeing her gaze, Yinzhen was overjoyed and said, "Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to you, never."
