In order to prevent Leng Xi from coming to deliver the medicine in person, Liu Xi gave the emperor a small pill. After watching the emperor fall asleep, he quickly left the palace and rode his horse at full speed to Prince Xi's Mansion.
When Leng Xi got the news of his coming, he still felt a little happy in his heart. As long as the emperor was still taking his medicine, it would be easy to control the emperor.
In the main hall of Xiwang Mansion
When Liu Xi saw Leng Xi coming in, he hurried forward.
"Prince Xi, the emperor has run out of medicine. Please get him some more. The emperor has become more and more dependent on this medicine recently."
Leng Xi looked at Liu Xi with a pair of sharp eyes, standing with his hands behind his back, looking complacent, and said casually:
"Eunuch Liu, this little pill hasn't been made yet. Why don't I personally deliver it to my father tomorrow morning? I haven't seen him in a few days, and I'm worried about him. I'd like to take this opportunity to check on his health."
Liu Xi knew that Leng Xi wanted to see the emperor the day before yesterday but failed, so he wanted to use the little pill as a threat. It seemed that Leng Xi was playing his tricks again. He laughed at himself in his heart, but bowed calmly and said:
"I said yesterday that the Emperor will be bedridden for seven days. During these seven days, not only will you, Prince Xi, not be able to see him, even if the two Imperial Concubines come, I will not let them see him."
Hearing this, Leng Xi's brows instantly stood up. He glared at Liu Xi and asked unhappily:
"Eunuch Liu, what do you mean by this? Are you going to imprison the Emperor? Can I suspect that you are holding the Emperor hostage?"
Liu Xi was not annoyed by his unreasonable questioning, but saluted calmly.
"Prince Xi, you are praising me. I have served the Emperor for decades. The Emperor is my master. How could I dare to do something so outrageous and against all men and gods? Besides, if I really wanted to hold him hostage, seven days would not be enough. Prince Xi, please don't speculate. If you really can't find any small pills, then I will go to the Imperial Hospital and ask Doctor Wang to prescribe some tranquilizers for the Emperor. I believe that if the Emperor falls asleep after taking these tranquilizers, his drug addiction will be alleviated."
After saying this, he was about to turn around. Leng Xi rolled his eyes vigorously a few times, then raised his hand to stop him.
"Eunuch Liu, please wait..."
"Does the prince have any further instructions?"
Leng Xi slapped his forehead and said with sudden realization:
"I just remembered that I still have a few pills in my study. Please wait, I will get them now."
After saying this, he took big strides and walked quickly out of the main hall.
Looking at his back, Liu Xi showed a disdainful smile.
He had already expected that Leng Xi would not let the emperor stop taking this little pill. After he made a small test, he really changed his tone.
After a while, Leng Xi came to Liu Xi with a dozen small pills.
"Eunuch Liu, these small pills are enough for Father to use for a day. I'll make more and send them to Father tomorrow. Thank you very much."
"Your Highness, you are so polite. I will take my leave now."
Leaving these words behind, he picked up the paper bag containing the small pills and walked quickly out of Prince Xi's Mansion.
He couldn't wait to return to the palace, as he was worried that the emperor would be angry if he suddenly woke up and couldn't find him.
Looking at his back, Leng Xi's mouth curled up into a triumphant smile.
After his eyes flashed a few times, he said coldly to the air:
"Come out."
At this moment, two men in black flashed out from the screen behind him. They came in front of Leng Xi, and one of them clasped his fists and said:
"Your Majesty, I have seen it clearly."
Leng Xi's eyes flashed with a fierce murderous intent, and he said coldly:
"Just look carefully. Within three days, bring this man's head to me. Otherwise, you know what to do."
The two men in black paused for a moment, and one of them snorted in disdain.
"He's just a eunuch, does it really take three days?"
"Don't be so confident, and don't underestimate this eunuch. His skills are far from as weak as you think. You only see his appearance."
The two men in black looked at each other and clasped their fists solemnly.
"I understand. In three days, I will make sure you see his head."
"Go down."
Leng Xi waved his hands at the two of them and reiterated:
"Kill him and there will be a huge reward. If you can't kill him, bring his head to me."
"yes."
After the two men in black saluted, they strode confidently and disappeared in front of Leng Xi.
The dark night always makes people feel scared.
This night was difficult for the emperor, and even more so for Liu Xi.
There were several times when he couldn't help but take out the pills sent by Leng Xi and wanted to give them to the emperor, but when he thought of Luo Lan's words, he gritted his teeth and put the pills away angrily.
He had witnessed with his own eyes that the emperor was harmed by Leng Xi's pills. In order to save the emperor's life, he could no longer be stupid.
But looking at the emperor tossing and turning in bed, his heart was torn with pain.
"Liu Xi...Liu Xi, kill me, kill me!"
The feeling of having his bones gnawed by countless ants was so uncomfortable that the emperor was tortured for three days. During these three days, he did not eat, drink or sleep and was exhausted.
This feeling made him feel that life was worse than death. At this moment, the emperor just wanted someone to stab him and end his life.
"Kill me... Kill me now!"
A wailing sound echoed in the Yangxin Palace again. The emperor saw Liu Xi wiping his tears at him. He wanted to struggle and sit up, but he had no strength at all. He simply exerted force and straightened his body, and fell directly to the ground. Liu Xi saw this and stepped forward in panic.
