Chapter 194.2

Dont forget, Father Emperor has no intention of passing the throne to this son. His preferred successor is Jin Wang. If Jin Wang is to ascend the throne, how will he treat Mother Empress? How will he treat the Wei Family? Does he truly have no doubts about Consort Des death? Even if he has no doubts about that, he should at least suspect Mother Empress after everything you have done to him. Zhao Zuo used that incident to blackmail you, but you also know that the antidote Jin Wangs poison had come from him, or rather, from the Wei Family. Jin Wang has likely already seen through the conspiracy behind the scenes and is now just waiting for the right time to make a critical blow. Mother Empress, dont be too compassionate!

Thats right, she should not be too compassionate. They had already planned this long ago.

In order to deceive the world, they did not directly attack the emperor but took a roundabout approach. According to their original intentions, they would execute their plan after the emperor was unconscious, faking a will he left behind to pass the throne to Dai Wang. However, they did not expect that there would be people causing trouble one after another. Jin Wang had even used his own three-year-old son, which delayed them for a considerable amount of time.

They tried to find ways to make their original plan work, but to no avail, so they took action directly. The only thing that took more effort was Yong Wang, who was already dead at this point.

Now that they have succeeded, when dawn comes tomorrow, news of the emperors passing would be announced, and everything would proceed according to the original plan.

Once the bow is drawn, the arrow cannot be turned back. So the emperor must die.

Only by dying would there be a will.

Only then could Dai Wang ascend to the throne. She would be honoured as the Empress Dowager, and the Wei Family would have a prosperous future.

With a chaotic mind, Empress Wei walked step by step toward the dragon bed.

The emperor on the bed was already an old man, with wrinkles on his face, gray hair and beard, and faint brown spots on his once strong and powerful hands.

Empress Wei, with tears in her eyes, vaguely remembered the day they got married. He was handsome and powerful, and she was shy and beautiful, as if in a dream.

Unfortunately

He was standing in front of someone, and they were having a conversation, but because their voices were low, Yaoniang could not hear them clearly. However, just by seeing the figure on the screen, she felt at ease.

She didnt go out, just leaned against the bed railing and looked outside like she was watching shadow puppets. Unfortunately, except for the occasional flicker of candlelight, the two figures hardly moved, as if they were not tired at all.

Finally, the standing person left, and the sitting person suddenly moved, his shadow disappearing over the screen as he came back in.

As soon as Jin Wang walked in, he saw her standing there, with her smooth long hair falling behind her head, wearing only a light green nightgown. She looked tender and small, like a lost jade rabbit.

Why arent you sleeping?

She seemed a little embarrassed to be caught peeking and rubbed her eyes. I woke up and didnt see you. Did something happen?

Nothing.

Dont lie to me, something must have happened.

Jin Wang walked over, put his arm around her waist, and walked toward the bed. Nothing happened, maybe something happened in the palace.

What happened?

Benwang also doesnt know what happened exactly. Well probably find out after dawn.

But they didnt have to wait until dawn. The news came before mao-shi even arrived.
