Chapter 267 The Emperor is Poisoned



"Okay, let's make arrangements first."

After Duke Zhao left, the Queen got up and left the palace to go to the Emperor's bedroom.

The emperor was unable to get up and lay in bed. Although he was awake every day, he could not get up and could only allow others to serve him.

When the queen arrived, he was drinking medicine.

When he saw the queen coming, he didn't say anything.

"I'm here to feed you, you go ahead!"

The queen took the medicine from the eunuch and spoke to him.

The eunuch first looked at the Emperor, and when he saw the Emperor nod, he let go and handed the medicine bowl to the Empress.

The queen gently scooped up the medicine and fed it to the emperor.

The emperor did not refuse and drank with an expressionless face.

"Although Mo Bai has been living away from home for many years and has not received orthodox education, he is not inferior to those children of noble families who have received orthodox education. He is indeed excellent. Is your Majesty very happy?"

The queen spoke as she fed the medicine.

The emperor smiled, his eyes full of pride, which hurt the queen's heart a little.

She just felt that Mo Xun like this was really an eyesore. In the past, she would always miss him and even had some expectations for him.

But now, not only did she give up completely, she also hated him.

Looking at the emperor's face, he suddenly felt disgusted.

The queen herself was surprised for a moment, it turned out that wanting to hate someone really only took a moment.

Thinking of this, the queen couldn't help but let out a sarcastic smile.

"He is the child of Xin'er and me, so he naturally inherited our respective strengths. Even though I haven't been around for many years, he is still excellent enough. This is something no one can compare to."

The queen was furious at the emperor's words. She unconsciously clenched her wife's hand, and it was difficult to conceal the anger in her heart.

But then he thought of his own plan, and the anger in his heart was extinguished.

"Among your many children, your favorite is Mo Bai. This preference makes the other princes very envious."

The Queen spoke in a light tone, not seeming angry at all.

The emperor looked at her, hiding his strangeness, and then said, "You are much more easy-going these days."

Hearing this, the Queen smiled and said, "What if I don't agree? Your Majesty has already appointed the Crown Prince. My wish cannot be fulfilled. I accept my fate. I just want to live my life in peace and quiet. I won't have any more thoughts."

The emperor didn't believe what the queen said, but he didn't say anything, just nodded lightly.

"It's good that you can see things in a positive way. People! If you want too much, you will live a very tiring life. You are the queen, so as long as you treat me well, I will give you the dignity you deserve."

After drinking the medicine, the emperor wiped the corner of his mouth and said in a calm tone.

The corner of the queen's mouth curled up into a barely perceptible smile, which quickly disappeared as if it had never appeared.

"Yes, Your Majesty is right. I understand."

The queen was unusually docile, and the emperor understood that she was about to take action.

Well, the matter should have an ending.

"Go ahead! I'm tired."

The emperor waved his hand.

The queen said, "I will serve your majesty every day. Husband and wife share happiness and hardship. Your majesty is ill and needs help. As your wife, I should take care of you without taking off my clothes. Your majesty, please don't refuse."

Hearing this, the emperor frowned and said, "No need. I have my own palace maids to take care of it. As the queen, you have a lot of things to do! Go and do your own thing."

But the queen insisted on staying and made many excuses. Seeing this, the emperor also followed her.

All the ministers knew the next day that the Queen had stayed up all night to take care of the Emperor. They all praised the Queen for her virtue and said she was worthy of being the Mother of the Country.

As the Empress' reputation grew, even people began to praise the couple as a harmonious couple, setting an example of a perfect couple in heaven.

The queen took care of the emperor for three days in a row. During these three days, she behaved well and did not do anything out of line. The ministers also thought that the queen had given up supporting the third prince, and they felt much more at ease.

Until this day, the queen served the emperor medicine as usual, but after the emperor drank the medicine, he suddenly vomited blood and fell into a coma.

At this time, several ministers came to the emperor's bedroom with the prince to discuss things. When they came in, they saw the emperor vomiting blood and the queen holding a bowl of medicine.

Several people were frightened and ran over.

"ężµEmperor!"

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty?"

The prince and several ministers ran over in a hurry, looking panicked!

"Imperial Physician! Imperial Physician, come in quickly."

Eunuch Zhao also shouted hurriedly.

There was an imperial physician waiting outside the door at any time. Upon hearing the shout, the imperial physician immediately rushed in.

Everyone was busy running around, except the queen, who stood aside holding the medicine bowl, frowning, at a loss.

The thing she wanted was not in the bowl. The emperor's sudden behavior was beyond her expectations and made her confused. She didn't understand what was going on.

Everyone stared at the imperial physician, waiting for his diagnosis.

"Imperial Physician, how is it? What's wrong with the Emperor?"

Mo Bai looked anxious.

The imperial physician frowned and said, "Your Majesty, this is poisoned!"

"What? How come?"

Mo Bai's face was filled with shock!

Then he quickly looked at the queen, "You did it?"

He questioned angrily, and his cold eyes seemed to want to torture the queen to death, which made her a little scared.

She hurriedly explained, "I didn't, it wasn't me, I didn't have any drugs, what nonsense are you talking about!"

The queen's eyes were a little evasive. If everything was according to her plan, it would be impossible to go wrong. But now it was like this, making her a little confused.
