"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, how are you?" Concubine Ji was very worried and ran over to help the emperor up from the ground.

However, the emperor was too heavy and Concubine Ji couldn't lift him up.

"Go and get the imperial physician, quickly!" Jipin shouted.

The commander of the Imperial Guards immediately sent someone to call the imperial physician, and then helped carry the emperor to the bed.

Concubine Ji stood by the bed, extremely worried. Her expression moved everyone who saw her.

After all, the emperor has been unwell recently, and it has been Concubine Ji who has been serving and taking care of him day and night. The commander of the Imperial Guards was very moved by Concubine Ji's true love for the emperor.

"Empress Ji, please take a rest. I will be watching over His Majesty." The commander of the imperial guards spoke.

"No need. I will feel at ease only when I take care of His Majesty. As long as His Majesty is fine, it doesn't matter if I work harder." Concubine Ji replied.

The commander of the Royal Guards said nothing more and tactfully retreated out of the door.

He didn't see that Concubine Ji secretly took a silver needle from her sleeve and stabbed it into the emperor's body.

The imperial physician came and immediately felt the emperor's pulse: "Your Majesty is in a coma due to anger. You must not get angry again. Your Majesty has not recovered today. If this continues, the consequences will be serious."

"Okay, I will definitely pay attention to it. Let the imperial physician write the prescription." Concubine Ji said.

"yes."

The imperial physician wrote a prescription, and Eunuch Wu had people boil the medicine. Then Concubine Ji naturally took the medicine and fed it to the emperor spoonful by spoonful.

After feeding 10,000 bottles of medicine, Concubine Ji put down the medicine bowl and suddenly felt dizzy. She almost fell down, and it was Eunuch Wu who helped her.

"Empress Ji, are you okay?" Eunuch Wu asked with concern.

"I'm fine. It's probably because I didn't get enough rest recently." Concubine Ji replied.

"Empress Ji has worked hard in taking care of His Majesty these days. I, an old servant, can take care of this place. You should go back and have a rest." Eunuch Wu was worried.

In the entire harem, only Concubine Ji came to take care of the emperor. Eunuch Wu also admired Concubine Ji very much. It turned out that she was the only one who cared about His Majesty the most.

"In that case, I will go back first. I have been busy taking care of His Majesty recently and haven't paid my respects to the Queen for a long time. It's time for me to pay my respects now." After saying this, Concubine Ji walked out.

The Queen's bedroom.

In the past, whenever the emperor had a headache or was in a state of panic, the empress would worry, care, and concern more than anyone else, and she would always be the first one to go to him to tend to him.

But ever since she learned that the Emperor condoned Concubine Xuan to poison the Crown Prince in order to eliminate her maternal family and had been asking Concubine Xuan to suppress her, the Empress had long been extremely disappointed with the Emperor. So this time when the Emperor was unwell and had Concubine Ji to take care of him, the Empress did not even show up.

After all, the emperor this time has to deal with the regent and Ye Xingchen. He is really asking for death. Ever since the queen knew that the prince was chosen by the gods and Buddhas because of Ye Xingchen's handicraft, the queen no longer dared to underestimate him.

What's more, she was helping her son, and now she was married to the Regent, whose power spread across the four countries and was no longer comparable to that of the Emperor.

How could a woman who could be married to the Regent be an ordinary person?

The queen was extremely grateful that Ye Xingchen was on good terms with the prince, so this time she did not take action and just sat on the sidelines and watched the fight.

"Empress, Concubine Ji requests to see you." The maid came in and announced.

The Queen frowned. Why did Concubine Ji come to her place instead of serving the Emperor?

"Let her in."

The maid brought Jipin in, and Jipin immediately bowed: "Your Highness, I pay my respects to you, Queen. May you live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years."

"What brings you to me?" The Queen looked at him coldly.

Concubine Ji glanced at the servant beside her and did not answer.

The queen saw through her concerns and said, "Everyone, go down."

"Yes." All the palace maids and eunuchs withdrew, leaving only the Queen and Concubine Ji in the huge palace.

"Now you can tell me why you came to see me?" the queen asked coldly.

"I came to see the Queen and want to make a deal with her." Concubine Ji said.

The queen raised her eyebrows and said, "You are just a concubine. What qualifications do you have to make a deal with me?"

Jipin was not angry at all: "What if I can help the Queen to kill His Majesty?"

The queen was shocked at this and looked at the person in front of her in disbelief: "What did you say? To murder His Majesty is a serious crime that will lead to the extermination of the entire family. You are in great favor now, and His Majesty may soon promote you. Why are you still doing this?"

Jipin's face was filled with anger and anger: "Because he killed the person I loved the most, I didn't want to enter the palace at all. It was the emperor who abducted me into the palace.

So I have been waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity to kill him openly, and now is the best time."

Although the Queen guessed that there was some grudge between Concubine Ji and Concubine Xuan and the Emperor, after all, she had dealt with Concubine Xuan several times before, and it turned out that there was such a relationship between them.

"Aren't you afraid that I will hand you over to His Majesty?" the Queen asked.

"Your Majesty, that wouldn't happen. Your Majesty poisoned the Crown Prince and allowed Concubine Xuan to frame the Crown Prince several times. With him around, the Crown Prince will never be able to ascend to that position. Doesn't Your Majesty want the Crown Prince to sit on that position?" Concubine Ji asked back.

The Queen was naturally tempted, but she was also afraid that Concubine Ji was deliberately setting up a trap to harm her, which would be a waste of time.

"Since you have come to see me, tell me what your conditions are. How can I trust you?" the queen asked coldly.

"My condition is that after the matter is accomplished, I want to leave the palace safely. For the rest of my life, I only want to be by the grave of my beloved, sweep the dead leaves in front of his tomb, and be buried with him." Concubine Ji stated her purpose.

The Queen was shocked: "Is that all?"

"Yes, that's all. Since his death, my heart has also died. Over the years, I have only wanted revenge. Every time I lie beside your majesty, I feel extremely sick.

Now I don’t want to wait any longer, because I have a terminal illness and my time is running out. Now I just want to leave the palace as soon as possible.” Jipin replied.

The Queen looked at her and said, "Although I don't know whether what you said is true or not, I agree to your terms."

"Okay, then please wait for good news, Your Majesty." Concubine Ji told her plan.

The queen couldn't help but sigh, saying that women are the most vicious people. The emperor deserved it, and it was all his own fault.

After Concubine Ji left, the Queen immediately sent someone to inform the Crown Prince and people from her mother's family.

The prince came immediately, and his face became solemn after hearing what the queen said about Concubine Ji.

In fact, the concubines in the harem had already sent people to investigate after he learned that he had detoxified himself.

"I think what Concubine Ji said is true, and I am willing to believe her. But this is a serious matter after all, and I want to inform Ye Xingchen and the Emperor's uncle." The prince spoke.

The queen frowned and said, "Tell the regent, this won't work. What if he uses this to threaten me or push you off the throne? This harem is not something you and I can afford."

The prince said calmly, "If the emperor's uncle wanted that position, he would have taken action long ago."

The Queen thought about it and realized that the Regent's ability was unmatched. "Okay, you go to the Regent's Palace in person. This matter cannot afford any mistakes."
