"Feng'er, you go down first. Without my order, no one is allowed to come in and disturb the emperor's mood." Xia Houyu's voice was as calm as a calm lake. His watery eyes glanced at Feng'er, and when Feng'er heard him, she was slightly startled. It wasn't originally this plan, but when she saw his resolute gaze, Feng'er had no choice but to leave the main hall.

After Feng'er left, Xia Hou Yu personally lifted the wine pot to fill Shen Ao Tian's cup.

"Does the emperor still remember the first time we met?" Xia Hou Yu's lips slightly pursed, and a blush that belonged to a woman appeared on her face.

"That should be over ten years ago, right? "We are all old now. The passing of time will not spare us …" Shen Ao Tian spoke out, a sense of loneliness sweeping through his heart.

"I'm getting old … "That's right. Chenqie is no longer a young lady. Compared to that new palace maid, she's much older and weak. She's no longer worthy of the emperor's notice …" Hearing the sadness in Xia Hou Yu's words, Shen Ao Tian couldn't help raising his glass.

"Why must Imperial Concubine Hua insist on doing all this? Although Qing Que and the rest are in their prime, it's a pity that they haven't gone through so many trials and hardships with us. If you compare them with you, you still have an irreplaceable place in our heart." Shen Ao Tian spoke indifferently, his eyes showing no emotions. Xia Hou Yu slightly pursed his lips.

"Just based on what the emperor said, Yu'er is going to toast. However, Yu'er still wants to know how important Yu'er is in the emperor's heart. Now that the imperial harem is ownerless, can the emperor consider setting her up?" Shen Ao Tian, oh, Shen Ao Tian, it is not that I, Xia Hou Yu is ruthless, I have already given you a chance, whether you live or die is up to you.

Shen Ao Tian didn't expect Xia Hou Yu to ask such a question, the hand holding the wine cup slightly swayed. Empress? Heh, in his heart, only Xin Fei, Shen Hansheng's mufei, was qualified to sit in that position. All these years, this belief had never changed.

Seeing Shen Ao Tian remain silent, Xia Hou Yu already knew the answer.

"Your consort will pour another cup for Your Majesty …" Taking Shen Ao Tian's wine cup, Xia Hou Yu's hand that was holding the wine pot slightly turned, a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"The taste of this wine is very rich, it's totally different from the other palaces …" Shen Ao Tian looked to his left and right, before taking the wine cup from Xia Hou Yu's hands, unhesitatingly gulping it down.

His heart trembled, Xia Hou Yu really wanted to snatch Shen Ao Tian's wine cup, but his raised hand did not move for a long time, recalling the humiliation he just suffered, she finally steeled her heart, staring straight at Shen Ao Tian as he poured the entire cup into his stomach. Brother Wang said before that this pill would only show its effects five times. If he were to add it all at once, who knew what effect it would have?

"What is my beloved concubine thinking?" Sensing that Xia Hou Yu's expression was abnormal, Shen Ao Tian put down his wine cup and asked suspiciously.

"No, I just miss the time when I rushed to the hunting grounds with the Emperor. Yu'er never thought of marrying into his family, but she still fell in love with the Emperor. Even if she shared her husband's family with them, she would have no regrets …" For some reason, tears just rolled down without any warning and dripped onto the table, turning into a glaze that fell onto the floor. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't control himself.

Seeing Xia Hou Yu like this, Shen Ao Tian had nothing to say. He had to admit that Xia Hou Yu's feelings towards him were real, but after that incident, he was unable to face the girl in front of him, and naturally began to distance himself from her.

"I know that I have wronged you all these years, but your position in my heart has not changed …" Shen Ao Tian placed down his wine cup and said perfunctorily.

"Still haven't changed? The Emperor asked himself, did your feelings for Yu'er really remain the same? If so, why can't you stay out of the Huaxing Hall for four months? After a long time? In your heart, Yu'er cannot compare to Xin Fei, right? " Xia Hou Yu suddenly raised his eyes, a trace of coldness leaking out from them.

Perhaps it was because he had been exposed to pain, Shen Ao Tian slightly furrowed his brows, no longer looking at Xia Hou Yu.

"Just because the emperor doesn't want to say anything doesn't mean that chenqie doesn't know. After so many years, the emperor is still brooding over this matter. Chenqie has done something wrong, but chenqie's original intention was for the emperor to care more about chenqie, even a tiny bit would be better!" Xia Hou Yu choked on his words, his body shaking with excitement.

"I've almost forgotten about that, why did Hua Fei bring it up?" Shen Ao Tian said softly, an unfathomable iciness in his eyes.

"Forgot? Has the Emperor really forgotten about that? If you forget why you are still torturing Yu'er like this, do you know that you are even more torturous than if you killed Yu'er? " In the end, Xia Hou Yu couldn't suppress the unwillingness and grievance in his heart, and almost roared out loud.

"That's right, Xin Fei is the woman that I love the most in my life. No one can take her place in my heart. When I found out that you secretly killed Xin Fei, I really wanted to kill you!" It's just that I've endured it. Because of Xia Hou Bo, I can spare your life and treat it as if I don't know anything. However, I absolutely can't let him continue to protect and protect you. " Behind the calm voice was a mask of his years of struggle and patience. Shen Ao Tian took a deep breath, ignoring Xia Hou Yu's shock.

"So the emperor had thought of letting Yu'er pay for Xin Fei's life!" If that's the case, Yu'er is willing to let you kill me with a single sword strike. Xia Houyu's gaze was cold and his eyes flickered with an unconcealable desolation.

"The times have changed. I don't want to bring up this matter again. If Imperial Consort Hua is fine, then I'll be returning to the imperial study …" Shen Ao Tian did not want to be entangled with Xia Hou Yu, but just as he was about to get up, he felt his four limbs weakening, and his body fell onto a chair, his hands trembling uncontrollably.

"Heh …" "The emperor must have been indulging himself too much to the point that his body was injured. Yu'er is old, but isn't the emperor passing through years of age as well? You really can't handle being stuck in such a perilous situation, can you?" Xia Houyu sneered and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"You …" Shen Ao Tian wanted to say something, but realized that his tongue seemed to be stuck in a knot, unable to obey him. He couldn't even make out a single complete sentence.

"What about me? Does the emperor want to say how could I be so bold as to dare to be disrespectful to the emperor? " Xia Hou Yu stood up, his sinister eyes staring straight at Shen Ao Tian.

"Someone come …" "Imperial Physician …" Shen Ao Tian seemed to have sensed something, and hurriedly opened his mouth, his eyes were filled with shock.

"Too late … Look at you now, you don't even look like a high and mighty emperor, not even half a bit of your former elegance. The current you is only an old man in his later years, do you think that those pretty girls really love you? What they love is only your identity! And that Lifei, she died too early. Otherwise, Yu'er would have definitely arranged a wonderful show for you, so that you could personally witness what kind of ecstasy you had when your son and your so-called beloved concubine were on the bed! " Xia Hou Yu arrogantly flaunted, laughing maniacally as he looked at Shen Ao Tian's flustered and furious face.

"You …" Shen Ao Tian raised his finger with all his might, but the tip of his finger was trembling uncontrollably like a loom.

"That's right, I poisoned the wine. Since you like Xin Fei so much, then go accompany her!" In the end, you only love yourself! " Xia Hou Yu suddenly rushed in front of Shen Ao Tian, both hands grabbing onto the dragon robe tightly, his eyes filled with a deep hatred. He loved Shen Ao Tian so much, how could she not hate him?

"Kill …" Shen Ao Tian's eyes were wide open as he stared at the girl in front of him in disbelief. He never thought that Xia Hou Yu would actually poison his wine, he was just being careless! However, at this moment, other than bearing all of this, what else could he do!

"You want to kill me now? "Too late …" Xia Hou Yu used a lot of strength and pushed Shen Ao Tian to the ground, his eyes revealed an unbridled light. Seeing Shen Ao Tian in such a sorry state, Xia Hou Yu suddenly laughed, laughed until it was like a rain of tears, and laughed until the petals trembled.

When Xia Hou Yu saw her clearly, he couldn't help but be stunned. Feng'er's body fell heavily to the ground as blood spurted out of her mouth. She had sustained serious injuries, and in the next second, Shen Hansheng was standing at the entrance as if the heavens had descended, with more than a dozen guards following behind him.

"Father!" Seeing Shen Ao Tian lying on the ground in a sorry state, Shen Hansheng rushed over to help him up, worriedly calling out to him. Speechless, the current Shen Ao Tian could not utter a single word other than snort. Only his hand was pointing at the wine pot on the table, seemingly wanting to tell Shen Hansheng something.

"Someone come!" Pass on the imperial physician! " Shen Hansheng opened his mouth in anger and glared coldly at Xia Hou Yu.

"It's good that Duke Han is here, I was just about to call the royal doctors. Someone, come!" Go to the Yi Qing Palace and capture that bitch Qing Que! " Xia Hou Yu spoke coldly, not the least bit afraid of Shen Hansheng's piercing glare.

"Hua Fei, how could royal father do this?" Shen Hansheng pulled Shen Ao Tian onto a chair, before asking him coldly.

"This palace is also interested to know that the emperor has just arrived at Yiqing Palace, and before he could even sit properly, his entire body spasmed. Presumably, it must have been caused by that Qing-QIng Que!" Xia Hou Yu feigned calmness as he spoke, his eyes deliberately not looking at the wine pot on the table.

"Then why did Imperial Concubine Hua let this maidservant guard outside the door and prevent anyone from meeting with the Emperor?" Shen Hansheng disapproved.

"Since Duke Han has mentioned it, I would like to ask, why did he attack Feng'er so heavily? She was merely guarding the palace gate on the orders of the Emperor, so that someone would not destroy the elegance between me and the Emperor. Xia Houyu's words were fierce and without the slightest intention of backing down, but his heart was filled with anxiety. She had never expected Shen Hansheng to suddenly appear here. Other than holding on with his life, she did not know what else to do! At this moment, only by notifying his brother about the situation would he have a chance at survival.

"Whether it's true or not, we can only wait for the imperial physician to come before we make a conclusion!" Shen Han Sheng was not in the mood to argue with Xia Hou Yu, his eyes turned to Shen Ao Tian who was slumped on his chair.

"royal father! "What happened?" Shen Hansheng spoke softly, hoping that Shen Ao Tian would give him some clues. Shen Ao Tian used his trembling hand and desperately pointed at the wine pot on the table. Seemingly noticing his move, Shen Han Sheng was just about to grab the wine pot on the table when he heard someone pushing him into the main hall with an angry face.

"Hua Fei! "What do you mean?" After Qing Que entered the door, she looked straight at Xia Hou Yu and questioned him furiously.

"What does this palace mean? "Look at the current state of the emperor, what did you give the emperor just now?" At the side, Qing Que followed the direction that Xia Hou Yu was pointing and saw Shen Ao Tian sitting on a chair, slobbering. Shen Ao Tian's eyes were empty, and his expression was sluggish for a second, Qing Que's heart suddenly shook. Shen Han Xin clearly said that the medicine was Five Stone Powder, could it be that it wasn't?
