The emperor raised his foot and kicked Yue Anyian hard, grabbed the skirt of his chest and gritted his teeth:

"Naughty son, evil son! You have killed so many children, and yet you are still justified! You, you want to make me angry to death!"

This was the first time that Yue Anyian saw his father so angry. He hurriedly said:

"Father, calm down. I don't need to use this method to treat illnesses. I promise you! I can wait for Hua Liuniang's master to return to the capital and let him treat my illness!"

By the way, Father, please ask Hua Liuniang to give the antidote to Erchen. Doctor Chen's medicine doesn't seem to be very effective, and Erchen always feels a slight abdominal pain!"

After hearing these words, the emperor closed his eyes. At this moment, he realized that it was probably because of his many times of partiality and protection that his son developed such a lawless temper.

Because he had few heirs, Yue Anyian saw that he was soft-hearted and could not bear to kill him, and even helped him cover up his crimes.

The emperor tiredly held on to the railings of the cell and said: "What I asked Doctor Chen to give you is not an antidote, but Broken Heart Grass, which will be poisonous in seven days!"

You should think about it carefully these days, but if there is anything else you want to say to me!"

After saying this, the emperor held on to the railing and walked hard out of the cell.

Yue Anyian was so shocked that his pupils dilated, "Heartwort? Why do you want to give me the Herborist? Father, what do you mean by this?"

Father, if my son dies, what will happen to Dafeng’s country? Do you really want to let the country fall by the wayside?!

Father, I was wrong. Please give me another chance. I really did not kill those babies, Father!"

Yue Anyian sounded calm at first, but when he saw the emperor leaving the cell without looking back, he became truly frightened.

Li Yuan released Yue Anyian without asking any more questions. After leaving the cell, he had the door of the cell locked, and he followed the emperor out of the prison.

In the cell, Yue Anyian was still roaring and yelling, and he still yelled the same few words.

How could the emperor kill his own son? In terms of cruelty, the emperor was a hundred times crueler than him.

These words echoed in the emperor's ears. After walking out of the prison, the emperor spat out a mouthful of blood with a "pop" sound.

Li Yuan frowned and helped him steady, and the emperor murmured weakly:

"I still remember that when he was three years old, when he saw me reviewing memorials late at night, he secretly gave me the cakes his mother and concubine had given him to eat... How did he... become like this!"

Li Yuan was silent. Maybe Concubine Shu deliberately asked Yue Anyian to do this at that time, but he did not say these words.

If you think about it from his perspective, if he and Qianqian's child did such a thing, he would never feel any better than the emperor!

"Your Majesty, I'm going to call you the imperial doctor!"

The emperor took Li Yuan's hand and shook his head, "No need, I have nothing important to do. Please accompany me back to the imperial study."

He closed his eyes, thought about his sons around him, and sighed deeply.

He raised his head and glanced at Li Yuan. Fortunately, this son was not raised by his side. Is this considered a blessing among misfortunes!?

Li Yuan sent the emperor back to the imperial study and poured the emperor a cup of tea. The emperor rinsed his mouth and felt better.

He looked at Li Yuan and said, "What do you think about this case?"

Li Yuan said: "I still don't know what the relationship between Prince Zhao An and the Saints' Cult is, but I think that this first blood must be related to the Saints' Cult!

If Prince Zhao An did not lie, then most of the people who came into contact with him were members of the Saints' Cult.

This saint’s sect frequently extends its hands into the palace, so it must be up to something!”

"Don't call him Prince Zhao An anymore!" The emperor's brows frowned more and more, and he felt more and more that the palace was surrounded by dangers. He said in a deep voice:

"You investigate this case secretly and don't cause panic among the people of Kyoto!

The Saints' Cult has disappeared for many years, but it has come back for unknown reasons. This Saints' Cult is a great hidden danger to Da Feng. You must find out the source and uproot this Saints' Cult!"

"Yes, I obey your order!"

The emperor pondered for a moment and then said: "I don't want to see him anymore. I'll leave the trial of his matter to you. If he is willing to explain the matter clearly, give him a happy life and let him... suffer less."

"

When the emperor said the last few words, his voice was shaking. God knows how difficult it is for a father to make the decision to kill his son.

Li Yuan was silent for a while before he said "yes". It was not that he softened towards Yue Anyian, but that he knew that with Yue Anyian's character, he would not compromise.

The two chatted for a while about other things, and the emperor became tired. Eunuch Hai helped the emperor return to the Yangxin Hall to rest, and Li Yuan also left the imperial study to investigate Yue Anyian and the Saints' Cult.

It wasn't until night that Li Yuan had some free time, and walked through the small door between Prince Cheng's Mansion and Li's Mansion to Hua Qianqian's yard.

Hua Qianqian knew he would come, so she didn't take any rest. She also set out supper in the yard waiting for him to come.

When Li Yuan saw the food, his eyes softened. Thinking that he would be able to live such a life after getting married, he felt that time was passing so slowly.

After he lifted up his clothes and sat on the stone bench, he took Hua Qianqian's hand and said, "There are mosquitoes at night. Come inside and wait for me!"

Hua Qianqian smiled and said: "I lit the insect repellent incense, it doesn't matter!"

With that said, he picked up a crystal dumpling for Li Yuan and put it in the bowl.

Li Yuan found that the dumplings were still hot, and said with some surprise: "How did you know I would come here now?"

Qiu Tao on the side couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, Miss, I don't know how many times I have reheated these dishes! I'm afraid you came here to eat them cold!"

Li Yuan looked at Hua Qianqian with his eyes, "You don't have to do this in the future. It won't be too late for me to come back. I want to talk to you anyway!"

Hua Qianqian didn't want to do that. He had been running around outside all day and was definitely too busy to take care of eating. She didn't want him to have to wait when he came back.

"In the future, I will be able to figure out when you will come back, and I won't have to reheat it again and again. Just try it quickly, it may not be as delicious as before!"

"Yeah! Everything you give me tastes delicious!"

Listening to Li Yuan's honey-like love words, Qiu Shuang and Qiu Tao looked at each other, both with aunty smiles on their faces.

After Li Yuan ate a dumpling, he told Hua Qianqian about Yue Anyian and told Hua Qianqian about going to see Yue Anyian in the prison today.

After hearing this, Hua Qianqian frowned and said, "He said he arrested those women for medical treatment? But that's still not right. Yue Anyian should have been ill for a while, but some of these girls have been imprisoned for more than half a year!

"

Hearing this, Li Yuan smiled and nodded, "You're right, so you can't believe everything Yue Anyian said.

I checked and found out that Xiao Zhengqi sent people to rob these women in the first place. The purpose was just to make money. Someone paid a high price to let them do these things.

And Xiao Zhengqi is from Yue Anyian. In order to cultivate his own power, Yue Anyian recruits troops and buys horses. He needs a lot of money, so naturally he will not refuse anyone who comes."
