In the next moment, the palace maid hurriedly ran over to Su He, her face pale as she shouted anxiously, "The empress is in trouble, the emperor fainted in the main hall this morning and is still unconscious.
The cup in his hand fell to the ground, producing a crisp sound as it shattered completely. Queen Zhangsun felt as if the sky was going to collapse and everything before her eyes turned dark.
After shouting "Your Majesty", he collapsed to the ground in a heap.
Su He anxiously ordered a maidservant to go call for an imperial physician.
On the other side, however, it was a different scene.
Imperial Consort Ye threw the bait into the lake little by little. Soon enough, the carp swam towards the bait bit by bit, and started to eat it.
When Yu Rui came over to report on this matter, Imperial Consort Ye's incomparably gorgeous face only faintly raised an eyebrow as the corner of her lips curled up into a mocking smile. "I have waited far too long for this day."
With that, he threw all the bait into the lake. The golden carp gathered together and began to fight and bite at each other just to get some food.
When Imperial Consort Ye saw this scene, she felt extremely happy. Laughing loudly, she said lightly: "This person is just like those golden carp. Normally, they will be safe and sound, but once there are new benefits, they can become enemies with others."
Finished speaking, she brought Yu QIng along to the imperial study of the Emperor Xuanyuan, and upon passing the imperial flower garden, she saw the Queen Zhangsun who was also rushing towards the imperial study like her.
Xuanyuan Chen and the others had waited for a long time, until Imperial Doctor Hu finally came out. Xuanyuan Chen asked: "Imperial Doctor Hu, how is royal father's body?"
Imperial Doctor Hu's expression turned ugly. He kneeled to the ground and said with great difficulty: "Prince Chen, this subject has already done his best. The Emperor's dragon body, back then, was already severely injured. Moreover …"
Xuanyuan Chen asked with an ugly expression: "And what? Imperial Doctor Hu has something to say, say it directly, do not stutter. "
Imperial Doctor Hu carefully raised his head and looked at Xuanyuan Chen's eyes that looked like they were about to devour him. He immediately trembled in fear and said shakily, "The Gu worm in the Emperor's body is already dead, this subject can only help the Emperor extend his life for three months at most. Unless we can find a Soul-Breaking Grass and a metazoan flower, with the two combined, perhaps we can bring the Emperor back to life. "
"Then why aren't you looking for it?" Xuanyuan Chen said coldly, the fists in his hands were clenched tightly, his eyes cold as he glanced at Xuanyuan Jing who was standing beside him, and saw a flash of coldness in his eyes, his heart was filled with fury, as though it was going to break out of his body.
However, for the greater good, he had to be calm, calm, and calm again.
"Third brother, why do you need to make things so difficult for the Imperial Doctor Hu? Just by hearing the names, we know that it's not easy to find Soul-Breaking Grass." Xuanyuan Jing placed his hand on Xuanyuan Chen's shoulder, consoling him, but his eyes were cold, and deeper down, hid a bit of schadenfreude.
Hearing this, Xuanyuan Chen actually calmed down, brushed away Xuanyuan Jing's hand that was on his shoulder, and spoke next to Xuanyuan Jing's ear: "Seeing second brother's calm appearance, this duke had thought that second brother would have known since a long time ago that Royal Father would have fainted at this critical juncture."
A flash of killing intent appeared in Xuanyuan Jing's eyes, and he awkwardly frowned, "Third brother, you can eat whatever you want to eat, but you can't say whatever you want."
Xuanyuan Chen chuckled, his lips carrying faint ridicule and disdain, "Second brother, if you don't want people to know, do nothing but yourself."
Just as Xuanyuan Jing wanted to say something, he saw that Queen Zhangsun had already brought his men to the royal study room, and then the Imperial Consort Ye had also arrived.
And at this time, only Xuanyuan Chen, Xuanyuan Jing, Prime Minister Changsun, Prime Minister Ye and a few powerful officials remained in the imperial study.
When Imperial Consort Ye saw Emperor Xuanyuan, who was unconscious on the dragon bed, a look of schadenfreude flashed across his eyes. However, the tears in his eyes suddenly flowed down, causing him to exclaim in admiration.
With teary eyes, she pitifully shouted, "Your majesty! Wake up, take a look at Chenqie. "
His expression was solemn and elegant, his expression expressionless, and his eyes were cold and indifferent like ice. He was completely unmoved by the Imperial Consort Ye's cries, and only after a long while did he coldly say: "Are you done crying, all of you can leave now."
The clear and cold voice carried a natural nobility, majesty, and a natural disposition.
Imperial Consort Ye wiped away the tears on her face and said sorrowfully, "Elder sister, why did you chase me away? Your consort is only worried about Your Majesty's consolation. "
Queen Zhangsun said coldly: "Didn't you hear what I said? Do you need me to personally invite you out? "
Imperial Consort Ye left embarrassedly, following that, Xuanyuan Chen and the rest also left the imperial study one after another.
The moment he stepped out of the study room, Prime Minister Ye's gaze fell on him and had some meaning.
The Prime Minister Changsun's heart thumped, as a very bold guess suddenly emerged. Staring at Prime Minister Ye as if he wanted to say something, he silently stepped out of the royal study.
The ice-cold face that was almost emotionless on Queen Zhangsun's face instantly fell, and the glimmer of water in her eyes that was about to fall yet didn't. She leaned against Emperor Xuanyuan's chest, and asked with a trembling voice: "Rui Er has already left, even you want to abandon me? Big brother Cheng. "
The voice that carried a sobbing tone was filled with bewilderment, helplessness and bewilderment.
Tears fell drop by drop onto Emperor Xuanyuan's chest, gradually wetting the front of his bright yellow dragon robe.
"Zitong, don't cry." Emperor Xuanyuan raised his hand with a tremble and caressed Queen Zhangsun's hair, but his hand quickly fell, as though everything that happened just now was all an illusion of Queen Zhangsun.
Queen Zhangsun obediently wiped her tears, gently coaxing the exhausted and haggard man in front of him, "Sleep for a bit, everything will be fine once you wake up."
Xuanyuan Chen had been waiting for Imperial Doctor Hu at the Grand Hospital for a while, but when Imperial Doctor Hu saw him, he sighed.
"Imperial Doctor Hu, about the Soul-Breaking Grass and how should we obtain them?" Xuanyuan Chen asked with a heavy expression.
Imperial Doctor Hu shook his head and said: "According to this subject's knowledge, the Soul-Breaking Grass is highly toxic, ordinary people are unable to harvest it. However, this grass was born in a high mountain, and Royal Family of the State of Yue coincidentally has a stalk of it. As for the Yang Flower, this subject has only seen it in medical books and no one has ever seen it before. "
Xuanyuan Chen frowned, "What else do you know? Report it all to this king."
Imperial Doctor Hu wiped off the cold sweat on his forehead and said: "This metazoan flower is very cheerful, and has a giant python protecting it. According to the ancient records, the metazoan flower is at least five hundred feet tall, and even if there was a mountain like this, there might not be any traces of the metazoan flower appearing."
Hearing that, Xuanyuan Chen's face turned black, his eyes darkened, he pursed his lips, then turned and left.
