Chapter 407 Dying

Chu Ying's face was extremely dark. He grabbed Xiao Xuanming's wrist and said in a deep voice: "King Ming, do you still want to keep pretending now? The token given to you by the county king is clear. It's true. I was there at the time, and I saw it really clearly."

"You said, how could this real thing become fake when it was in your hands? Another point, how did you secretly put the real token into the prince's study? The prince's study is guarded It's tightly guarded. How on earth did you put things in there under our noses?"

Xiao Xuanming got rid of Chu Ying's restraint with some annoyance. "What the hell are you talking about? I really don't understand. Mr. Chu, I advise you not to talk nonsense. Otherwise, you will slander the king." Master, this is a serious crime."

"Obviously it was the county king who gave me a false order and wanted me to take the blame for him. I am the victim. Fortunately, my father is aware of everything and understands the righteousness of justice, so he did not vent his anger on me. Otherwise, I will be in trouble now. Yes, I am the king."

Chu Ying stared at Xiao Xuanming's face and said in a cold voice: "King Ming, is Lu Changsheng alive? Have you and Yun Luan reached some kind of cooperation?"

Xiao Xuanming's eyes flickered, and Chu Ying was undoubtedly smart. He could guess most of the truth of many things without any evidence. He really couldn't figure it out, since Xiao Xuanrui has such a wise and unparalleled Zhuge, Why did he continue to lose to Yun Luan repeatedly or was it Chu Ying’s handiwork? Xiao Xuanming didn’t say much. He still stayed confused and kept silent. “I really don’t know what you are talking about. What, I, the king, still have time, so I will not disturb Young Master Chu, and I will take my leave."

After he said that, he turned around and left. Chu Ying did not stop his steps. He stood there and quietly watched King Ming leave. Yin Bailian walked out slowly from behind the screen. Her eyes were red, and there was a flash in her eyes. A little worried. Then, without saying a word, she knelt down in front of Chu Ying. "Mr. Chu, I beg you to think of a way to save the prince. Nothing can happen to him..." Chu Ying stared condescendingly. Yin Bailian's eyes were full of pleading. He curled his lips and smiled mockingly. "I didn't expect that you are quite infatuated with the prince."

"When he found out that you had betrayed him, cuckolded him, and conceived a child for someone else, he wanted to kill you immediately. He was so cruel to you, don't you hate him?"

Yin Bailian pinched the handkerchief and wiped the moisture from the corners of her eyes. Her eyes were full of grief. "Why should I hate the prince? Isn't it Yun Luan who I should hate the most? I have come to this point and everything is Yun Luan. It's so bad. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have been plotted, I wouldn't have lost my virginity to Han Dang, and I wouldn't have been pregnant with Han Dang's child."

If I were still the same person I was before, the clean Yin Bailian, how could the county prince hate me, and how could he be angry and want to kill me?"

"In this world, I can hate anyone but not the king. It was the king who gave me a second life. Without him, there would be no Yin Bailian today."

"Master Chu, as long as you are willing to find a way to save the prince, I will do whatever you want me to do. I beg you, I beg you."

Yin Bailian said and kowtowed to Chu Ying. After a while, a lot of blood came out of her forehead. Chu Ying pursed his lips and looked at Yin Bailian silently. After a long time, he smiled softly. "I didn't expect it. , you are an infatuated person. Don’t worry, as long as Concubine Zhao does not die, even if the county king commits a big thing, he will save the day."

"Yin Bailian, what you should worry about most is yourself, not the prince. Now that you are crossing the river with the Ni Bodhisattva, you cannot protect yourself. You should think about where you will go after Princess Jiarong's banquet."

Yin Bailian couldn't help being slightly startled, her face was completely pale. Chu Ying turned around and left the hall without looking at her again. - Xiao Xuanrui was carried into the palace. During this period, he did not dare to wake up and kept looking for him. He woke up at the right opportunity. Unfortunately, Eunuch Zhou seemed to see through his intentions and never gave him a chance. When he arrived at the palace gate, Eunuch Zhou turned his head and looked at Xiao Xuanrui, who was still unconscious with his eyes closed. He sighed: "Prince, you can take care of yourself. .”

After he said that, he stood up, opened the curtain, and got out of the carriage. Xiao Xuanrui slowly opened his eyes, and he frowned slightly... The carriage started again not long after. He knew that the carriage entered the palace. The carriage entered the palace The door swayed all the way, and I didn't know how long I walked before finally stopping. Before Xiao Xuanrui could close his eyes, he heard the emperor's extremely angry voice coming from outside the carriage: "Since he wants to pretend to be faint, let him If he has pretended enough, I want to see how long he can keep pretending."

Xiao Xuanrui's eyes flashed with panic. Before he could react, the carriage curtain was opened the next moment. He quickly closed his eyes. An imperial doctor carrying a medicine box climbed onto the carriage. The imperial doctor shook his arms and opened the door. He took out an embroidery needle from the medicine box. Some transparent liquid was smeared on the embroidery needle. The smell of the liquid was a little pungent. Xiao Xuanrui couldn't stand the smell at all. The imperial doctor held the embroidery needle with one hand. He rolled up Xiao Xuanrui's sleeves and whispered: "Prince, I'm offended..." Before Xiao Xuanrui understood what was about to happen, he only felt a stinging pain on his arm. He couldn't hold it back. Even with a loud scream, he sat up, rolled and crawled out of the carriage. He fell hard to the ground, and was extremely embarrassed. The emperor walked up to him step by step with a gloomy face. "You've been pretending to be unconscious... I've been giving you opportunities, but it's a pity that you are still stubborn."

"Rui'er, Xiao Xuanrui, you are so arrogant. What on earth should you let me do to you? Your mother-in-law has been unconscious for many days. You have repeatedly made mistakes and challenged my bottom line. Do you really think that I will not take advantage of you?" How are you?"

"Now, you dare to steal the real imperial order. I can't think of anything else that you dare not do?"

Xiao Xuanrui raised his head and looked at the emperor with a pale face. He shook his head, his eyes were red, and he explained in a choked voice: "Father, you have misunderstood me. I don't really want to steal the emperor's order, I just want to steal the emperor's order." I just want to borrow it for a while. Erchen thought that when the loan is used up, he will return it to you..." "Who would have thought that Xiao Xuanming...he would join forces with Yun Luan to plot against Erchen and make Erchen eat a big meal. Damn..." Before he could finish his words, suddenly a black shadow came in front of him, and with a snap, a slap fell hard on his face. The emperor's eyes were burning with blazing fire. He couldn't stop being angry. , I just felt that a slap in the face still didn't relieve my anger. Dang even slapped Xiao Xuanrui again. "You bastard... all this is your fault, how dare you involve others? Fourth child, although he is a coward Cowardly, but he is also your brother after all. How could you be so insidious and want to put him to death? "

"Falsely conveying the emperor's order, what a heinous crime it is. You are trying to get him to death..." Two slaps made Xiao Xuanrui's head buzz. Drops of bright red blood flowed from the corners of his mouth. . Blood slid down the corner of his mouth and onto the white jade floor tiles. The bright red blood stung his eyes. He opened his scarlet eyes and suddenly raised his head to look at the emperor. "Is that so? What do you say now?" ,Father, you don’t even believe it?”

The emperor gritted his teeth and looked at his stubborn look. He replied sadly: "You still don't know how to repent, do you?"

Xiao Xuanrui raised his sleeves and wiped the blood on the corner of his mouth. He curled his lips and smiled mockingly. "I really don't know how to repent. Why don't you teach me, father?"

"Xiao Xuanming is so stupid. He took the initiative to seek refuge with Erchen and wanted to be protected by him. He couldn't get the love and attention from his father, so he wanted to cling to the big tree of Erchen... He was just doing it for himself. Greed has just paid the price."

"If he didn't have any greed, he wouldn't be used by me, nor would he face this. He was unwilling to be mediocre and wanted to touch the glory and wealth that didn't belong to him. Even if he really died, he deserved it. "

The emperor's eyes were full of disappointment. No matter what Xiao Xuanming's character was, this was not an excuse for him to kill his younger brother. Before, he killed his cousins, but now he is his biological brother. The emperor's eyes suddenly became blurred. He His nose was sore, and crystal tears slowly fell from the corners of his eyes. He turned his back, and his whole body was trembling. This was the son he loved, cared for, and raised personally for more than 20 years. At this moment, he knew clearly Chu suddenly realized how ridiculous and ironic his years of painstaking upbringing and cultivation were. He really raised a wolf cub that could eat people. Now, this wolf cub is getting stronger little by little. , backfired on him, devouring his flesh and blood. Xiao Xuanrui slowly got up from the ground. He straightened his messy hair, and a bit of contempt flashed in his eyes. Anyway, his image in his father's heart had long been destroyed. Corrupted. Now, he doesn't care anymore and doesn't want to pretend anymore. He is very sure that even if he exposes his ambition and cold-bloodedness, his father will never really kill him. He is confident. He has his mother and concubine. With this trump card here, what is he afraid of? Oh, people like Yunluan Xiao Tingyan will only become a stumbling block for him to ascend to the throne of God. Where is this? Although he has been defeated miserably these few times, it has not touched him. His foundation, his authority and strength are still intact. Does Yunluan Xiao Tingyan think that this will defeat him? Oh, it is simply ridiculous. No matter what danger he is in, he can make himself invincible. Let's see how he turns over and turns the tide for himself! "If the father thinks that the son is at fault, you can punish the son, and the son will never complain. However, before the father punishes the son, , can you let me, my son, go see your mother and concubine?"

"Perhaps this is the last time I see my mother and concubine? I'll just say goodbye to my mother and concubine..." Without waiting for the emperor's response, he raised his feet and walked step by step towards the main hall of Feiyue Palace. Eunuch Zhou stood On the side, he frowned slightly and opened his mouth. This Prince Rui is really arrogant now. The emperor didn't even say a word, but he actually left like this without hesitation? He didn't take the emperor seriously at all. Ah. Eunuch Zhou looked at the emperor with some confusion: "Your Majesty... Do you want me to let the imperial guards stop the prince?"

The emperor's eyes were full of exhaustion. He waved his hand and shook his head with a defeated expression: "Don't stop him, let him go in to see the noble concubine for the last time. This time, I will never let him off lightly."

Xiao Xuanrui entered the Feiyue Palace for about half a quarter of an hour. He showed his kindness and walked out. As soon as his feet passed the high threshold, Qiao Yue's ecstatic voice rang out from the inner hall. "Ah... …The imperial concubine is awake.”

"Here comes the imperial doctor. Come in quickly and take the imperial concubine's pulse."

The emperor was resting in the side hall. When he heard that the imperial concubine had woken up, his eyes filled with intense ecstasy. He stood up suddenly and ran towards the inner hall like crazy. Xiao Xuanrui curled his lips lightly, and there was a hint of darkness in his eyes. . He did not enter the palace, but knelt at the entrance of Feiyue Palace... and shouted at the emperor's back. "I know that I am guilty, please punish my father..." The emperor had just stepped into the palace door, and suddenly He paused. He slowly turned around and looked at Xiao Xuanrui, who was kneeling at the entrance of the palace. "If you have anything to do, we'll talk about it after your mother and concubine are well..." Xiao Xuanrui was unmoved. He looked at the emperor with burning eyes: "Please, father." The emperor punished me... I am willing to be punished."

The emperor's face was livid with anger, and he gritted his teeth and glared at Xiao Xuanrui. "I said, wait until your mother and concubine are well... Since you like to kneel, then kneel first."

He shook off his sleeves fiercely and walked towards the inner hall without looking back. Xiao Xuanrui knelt on the ground, lowered his eyes, and there was a hint of mockery in his eyes. He just entered the inner hall, saying that he was visiting his mother. The concubine is actually giving the antidote to the concubine. After taking the antidote, the concubine will wake up within a short while. Once the concubine wakes up, she will never watch helplessly as she is punished by her father. This The timing is just right. He will not let himself be defeated so easily. Even if his father becomes more and more dissatisfied with him, so what? The power he holds in his hands is real. Anyone , could not compete with him. Just as Xiao Xuanrui expected, as soon as Concubine Zhao woke up, she clamored to see him. The emperor was helpless and said a lot of nice things to coax Concubine Zhao. Concubine Zhao ignored them and cried. He begged the emperor. The emperor was worried that Concubine Zhao was too excited and would fall into coma again. So he couldn't bear to refuse anymore, so he called Eunuch Zhou and called Xiao Xuanrui over. Eunuch Zhou sighed silently, the emperor was really eaten to death by Concubine Zhao. In this life, the emperor has completely fallen on Concubine Zhao and can never get up again. Prince Rui has such a biological mother who is like a god. No matter how big a mistake he makes, he will always save the day. For others, this is It was extremely unfair. It was destined to be an earth-shaking catastrophe for Nanchu Jiangshan. Eunuch Zhou left the inner palace and went to call Xiao Xuanrui who was kneeling at the door of the palace. Unexpectedly, Xiao Xuanrui actually fell to the ground and fainted again. In the past, Eunuch Zhou was so angry that he almost yelled. He pretended to be faint again! There was no end. He had been in the harem for many years, and he didn’t know how many times he had seen this method of pretending to be faint. Now, he has actually seen it on a prince many times. Such a resort was on the table. The county prince really did anything to achieve his goal. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Trying his best to suppress the anger in his heart, he hurriedly ran out to check on Xiao Xuanrui's situation. " Prince... Prince, please wake up... are you okay?"

Xiao Xuanrui didn't pretend to be dead. He let out a cry, woke up faintly, and slowly opened his eyes. He rubbed his forehead, and a bit of pain flashed across his eyes. "My head suddenly hurt so much, who knew I would faint again without realizing it." Come on... Eunuch Zhou, I didn't mean to pretend this time."

Eunuch Zhou, a slave, would not dare to say anything offensive. He quickly helped Xiao Xuanrui and asked the imperial doctor to diagnose Xiao Xuanrui's pulse. Unexpectedly, after the imperial physician diagnosed Xiao Xuanrui's pulse, he said to Eunuch Zhou with a solemn face, "Eunuch Zhou, the prince is poisoned. ah."

"This kind of poison is very strange. In a short period of time, it will not be fatal. At most, it will cause drowsiness and headache for no reason. But if it takes a long time and the poison is not detoxified for a long time, it may be life-threatening."

Eunuch Zhou was startled, his eyes filled with disbelief. "Poisoned?"

"How can this be?"

"Mr. Zhou, did you diagnose the wrong pulse?"

Doctor Zhou replied with some fear: "Eunuch Zhou, if you don't believe it, you can call other doctors to come and diagnose your pulse. I can guarantee that the results obtained by other doctors will be exactly the same as my diagnosis."

Eunuch Zhou's face became solemn. He did not dare to be careless and quickly asked people to take care of Xiao Xuanrui. He immediately informed the emperor of the incident. The emperor frowned slightly after hearing this. Concubine Zhao was worried and cried to lift the lid. He opened the quilt and got out of bed, going to see Xiao Xuanrui. "Rui'er is fine, how could he be poisoned? Is there someone who deliberately harmed him? No, I must see for myself..." The emperor held down helplessly He touched her shoulders and advised softly: "Wan'er, I have been sleeping for many days and have just woken up. It is really not appropriate to get out of bed."

"I'm going to see what's going on first. I'll bring Rui'er here later... Just lie here obediently and don't worry me, okay?"

Concubine Zhao tightly grasped the emperor's sleeves, choking and sobbing. "Your Majesty, you must not let anything happen to Rui'er. If something happens to him, I will not be able to live."

The emperor wiped the tears from Concubine Zhao's face. He turned around without saying a word and left the inner hall. When he went to the side hall to visit Xiao Xuanrui, Xiao Xuanrui's symptoms had worsened. His face was pale. His body was extremely weak. He was just lying on the soft bed, and his body showed the aura of dying and about to die. The emperor only took one look, and his heart couldn't help but jump suddenly. "What on earth is going on?"

All the doctors from the Imperial Hospital had been summoned. They took turns and checked Xiao Xuanrui's pulse. They knelt down in fear and tremblingly replied: "Your Majesty, Prince Rui's symptoms have developed. Very quickly. In just such a short time, the toxin has corroded his internal organs."

"For the current plan, we can only study the antidote first and save Prince Rui's life first."
