Fortunately, he had been watching in the front hall just now, so Xuanyuan Jin didn't say anything outrageous in front of the ministers. Otherwise, I'm afraid that by this time, the ministers would have been bewitched by him, and the country would have changed hands!
"Father?" Xuanyuan Jin rushed to the edge of the emperor's bed anxiously and shouted tentatively, feeling full of anxiety - if the emperor told him about hurting him at this time... wouldn't this be a capital crime?
The man on the bed remained motionless, still staring blankly in front of him, his eyes vacant.
"Father?" Xuanyuan Jin relaxed a little and called out again softly.
"Second Prince, the Emperor cannot hear you..." The imperial doctor couldn't see it and spoke from the side. He sighed and touched his beard, thinking about it as he spoke, "Wei Chen has just called the Emperor many times, but...
He didn't even respond. Moreover, the emperor's pulse does not look like he is sitting down... Strange! It's really strange!"
"What does that mean?" Xuanyuan Jin's voice dropped. He didn't know medical skills, and his head was dizzy at the words of the imperial doctor.
"Wei Chen, it seems that the Emperor... saw something unclean, as if... he was possessed by an evil spirit." An imperial doctor next to him took a step forward and spoke tremblingly.
"You bastard!" As soon as the imperial doctor finished speaking, Xuanyuan Jin spoke angrily, as if he was a king, "How can there be any evil spirit? Even if there is, how can there be any reason to infringe the father's body with thousands of gold?"
Although the theory of ghosts is difficult to accept in a refined way, even Xuanyuan Jin does not dare to completely deny it.
"What do you think the Second Prince thinks?" the imperial doctor asked doubtfully. Seeing Xuanyuan Jin's angry look, he simply made a trick and threw all the questions away.
"Are you the imperial physician or am I the imperial physician?" He glanced at everyone with a cold look in his eyes, "Before tomorrow morning, we will not be able to study the cause of my father's illness, so you all come to see me!"
After saying that, he put on a gloomy face, threw up his sleeves and walked out angrily.
Xuanyuan Hao glanced at Xuanyuan Jin's back indifferently, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly in a mocking arc: Because of the emperor's illness, Xuanyuan Jin actually imagined himself as a powerful person in the royal family...
Averting his eyes, he moved his gaze back to the bed. Looking at the emperor sitting there like a puppet, his brows gradually furrowed solemnly - his father's appearance always looked weird!
"Queen mother..."
"What?" The queen, who was looking down and thinking about something, was startled by being called such a name unexpectedly. She quickly raised her head, and the panic in her eyes fell into Xuanyuan Hao's eyes.
"Excuse me, please take care of my father." Xuanyuan Hao smiled slightly, with an elegant attitude, nodded politely, and walked out directly.
The Queen stared at him walking away blankly, a layer of doubt flashing through her mind - he clearly saw her panic, why... didn't he ask?
Compared to Xuanyuan Jin's schemes, she felt that Xuanyuan Hao was even more unfathomable!
*****
The imperial doctor made a thorough diagnosis and study, and then went out to report to the waiting ministers that the emperor's life was not in danger for the time being. Although he was not getting better, he was not critically ill.
The ministers did not disperse, but whispered a few times, and finally made up their minds - why not move the sacrifice forward and hold it tomorrow!
The emperor is ill. He thinks someone has been infected with the "dragon spirit" and needs to be sacrificed as soon as possible to seek the blessings of the ancestors of the royal family so that the emperor can recover as soon as possible.
After discussing it like this, everyone dispersed and went back to prepare for tomorrow. Although it was inconvenient for Xuanyuan Jin to interrupt, he had already made up his mind - it seemed that his plan had to be advanced!
*********************
The sky is slightly bright.
Su Tong tried hard, and her arms were finally able to move slowly. It seemed that the power of the medicine was wearing off little by little!
Huo'er hasn't come back yet, Su Tong thought, it must be that he hasn't found Xuanyuan Hao yet! Such a thing happened in the palace yesterday, so the chance of him coming back is relatively small!
It seemed that it was too late to wait for Xuanyuan Hao to save her, so she might as well take the opportunity to escape. If the demon king came again, she would really have to sacrifice three days in this ghost place!
She struggled to support herself to stand up, and exercised her numb feet. After she fully recovered, she quickly rushed to the back window where Huo'er jumped out. There was someone guarding the front, so she wouldn't walk stupidly.
Front door!
However, when Su Tong looked out the back window, she instantly wanted to die - no wonder they were so determined not to lock the back window! This is the second floor, and below the back window is the bluestone street.
, if she jumped without knowing martial arts, wouldn’t she be seeking death?
Gritting her teeth, Su Tong gave up the idea of escaping through the back window and searched the room for any other hidden compartments that she could escape from... But she couldn't even dig a dog hole!
Just when she desperately wanted to return to the back window, she suddenly noticed from the corner of her eye that there seemed to be a hole in the wall here. What could be on the other side of that hole?
Su Tong couldn't help but feel a little curious. She couldn't help but lie on the wall and look over there through the hole - there was a similar room setting. From the looks of it, there should be a similar guest room next door.
However, when she saw someone sitting on the edge of the bed, Su Tong's eyes couldn't help but be startled. Just as she was about to look away, she suddenly found that his appearance seemed a bit weird, and she couldn't help but be stunned again——
