Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, several months had passed. Just before the arrival of the new year, Princess Ning had given birth to a son. Ning Wang was extremely pleased with himself. The Emperor and Prince Yu were very happy. On the fifteenth day of the first month, not only were there celebrations, they even offered blessings to Ning Wang's son.

In the throne room, Ning Wang and the imperial concubine accepted the Emperor's HXi. On both sides, the civil and military ministers and princes stood apart.

The Emperor and Empress sat on the Dragon Throne and were presented by Eunuch Li.

The emperor's face was full of smiles as he glanced at Empress Chen, preparing to accept the message in Ning Wang's hands.

Ning Wang took a few steps forward and knelt on the ground. Suddenly, he felt a headache coming on. A headache felt like it was about to burst, as if someone was trying to cut it open from the outside. Now, something seemed to be trying to come out. When it came to his chest, even his heart was throbbing. Ning Wang's expression changed drastically.

Empress Chen could tell that something was amiss, and her face changed slightly. Naturally, the emperor could also tell that something was amiss. He was greatly puzzled.

Ning Xiaoyao saw the look in his eyes and became anxious. She wanted to say something, but the baby in her arms started to cry. She could only pat the baby's back to coax him.

At this moment, Ning Wang suddenly launched an attack. His eyes were filled with violence and insanity. He took a step forward and grabbed the emperor's neck!

"Your Majesty …" Empress Chen cried out in alarm.

The officials at the bottom also shouted in panic, "Your majesty, your majesty!"

He usually had martial arts skills, but now that he had risen up, his strength was immense. The guards were actually unable to control him, and he continued to rush towards the emperor's side, leaving the throne room in a state of chaos.

The emperor could only retreat as he shouted, "Quick, hold him!"

Empress Chen was so frightened that her beautiful face paled, and the emperor shielded her behind him, forcing himself to remain calm.

At this moment, Xiao Tianyuan rushed out from the crowd and aimed at the nape of Ning Wang's neck, knocking him unconscious. Only then did a few guards step forward to restrain Ning Wang.

The emperor was still holding onto his neck in shock, but his heart was still in distress. The emperor, on the other hand, paid close attention to check to see if the emperor was injured. The group of ministers looked at each other in dismay, all of their faces ashen from fright, trembling all the way down to the sieve.

Within the imperial study.

The emperor slapped the table heavily and sighed heavily.

Eunuch Li stood by the side with his hands hanging by his sides. He could not help but feel worried.

The imperial physician, Tian Cheng, was treating Ning Wang, while Prince Yu and a few other princes and officials of the imperial court were all gathered in front of the bed, waiting for news.

"Imperial Physician, how is Ning Wang now? What disease is he suffering from? "

Shang Tiancheng sighed in his heart as he obediently went forward to report, "In reply to Your Majesty, Ning Wang was poisoned with the 'Seven Corpses Seven Brain Worm' poison. This subject has already used the poison to extract it, but the insect poison has long since invaded Ning Wang's brain. Now …" Shang Tiancheng had a troubled expression on his face as he said, "The medicine now is useless!"

The Emperor urgently asked, "What will happen to him in the future?"

Shang Tiancheng looked at the emperor hesitantly. "In the future …" He will be very difficult to cure in the future. "

The Emperor's heart sank. He glanced at Prince Yu, and his eyes were filled with tears. He took another look at Ning Wang, who was still lying unconscious on the bed.

Shang Tiancheng continued, "In the future, only when Ning Wang is sleeping will he be able to have a moment of peace."

The Emperor was both distressed and angry. "There must be someone playing tricks on Ning Wang's accident." As he spoke, he turned to Prime Minister Liang Shucai, "Liang Shucai."

"This official is here!" Only then did Liang Shu respond.

"I order you to thoroughly investigate the case of the original poisoner who killed Ning Wang. You must be arrested." The Emperor majestically gave the order.

"Your subject obeys the decree." Only then did Liang Shu kneel down. After some thought, he replied, "Your Majesty, if this matter involves all the princes, then this subject …"

The emperor's face sank. "Liang Qingcai, did you discover something that concealed this from me?"

Liang Shu then lowered his head, "This subject does not dare to presume to make an assertion. However, there are indeed many strange people in the Prince's Mansion, and there are even …" Liang Shu paused slightly.

Seeing this, the Emperor ordered, "Continue."

"There are even people from the same sect who attempted to assassinate the Emperor."

The Emperor was infuriated as he stared at the princes. He paced back and forth in anger. "These beasts!" Then he asked Liang Shucai, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? Are you trying to bully the monarch? "

Liang Shuai then lowered his head in fear, "This subject doesn't dare! However, there are such characters in the manors of the princes. This subject is only afraid of … "This subject has no proof, so …"

When Fang Zinan saw this, he stepped forward, "Please calm your anger Your Majesty. This matter hasn't been investigated yet. It might not be related to us princes."

Liang Shu glanced at Fang Zinan. "Your majesty, Prince Rong's words are not without reason. We should immediately search the estate and find the evidence. Otherwise, we can't say that it was any of the princes."

The Emperor nodded thoughtfully, then raised his head and commanded, "Kong Youwei."

"This humble subject is here." Kong Youwei was the leader of the Imperial Guard in the capital, and he had the trust of the emperor.

"I order you and Lord Liang to thoroughly investigate the Duke's estate. Regardless of whether you are close friends or not, bring them all to me. Do you hear me?"

Kong Youcai looked a little troubled. "Your majesty."

"This is my order." The Emperor said solemnly.

Kong Wen was in a difficult situation, he did not dare to say much and could only kneel down, "This humble subject obeys your command."

Liang Shu only took a glance, and a cold sneer appeared on his face.

Both King Ding and King Xuan looked at each other with different thoughts in their minds. Seeing this, Fang Zinan already knew that it was related to them. As long as it was not related, he wouldn't want to get involved. Moreover, he didn't have any solid evidence, so even if he had any doubts, he could only keep them.

Prince Yu looked at Ning Wang, who was lying on the bed, and felt both pained and sad. He had high hopes for this eldest son of his. He didn't expect that Ning Wang, who had just given birth to a son, would already be poisoned to such a state.

Seeing that, Fang Zinan hurriedly supported his father: "Royal father, you … How are you? "

Prince Yu shook his head and heaved a long sigh. "In the end, who was the one that wanted to harm Ning Wang? Ning Wang just had a child, how could he …" Before he could finish, he heard another sigh.

King Xuan and King Ding also stepped forward to support Prince Yu. They both said in unison, "Father, don't worry. Your son will do his best to cooperate with Lord Kong and bring the true culprit to justice."

Seeing his two sons expressing such sincerity and sincerity, Prince Yu had his doubts about his two sons, but he didn't know what to say. He could only feel sad.

"Prince Yu, no need to feel sad. I feel the same pain as you do." The emperor couldn't help but console his brother. "I assure you, we will very soon apprehend the murderer and avenge King Ning."

Prince Yu just held his chest, no longer saying anything.
