Chapter 388
  Jingye had calculated everything, but the only thing he didn't expect was that the emperor was still alive!
  The bowl of ginseng soup that grandma presented was full of ingredients, and the emperor probably wouldn't be able to withstand it!
  Could it be that Shen Zhuoxi really has the medical skills to bring the dead back to life?
  Jingye couldn't figure out why things were out of his control. He had thousands of thoughts in his mind, but they finally turned into two words - it's over.
  It's all over!
  After the emperor sprayed blood, he felt weak. Shen Zhuoxi and Qin Huai were waiting in front of him, while Hui Zhi went to fetch hot water and call for help.
  After taking several breaths, the emperor finally spoke, his voice hoarse and obscure like a rusty iron chain dragging on the ground: "Jingye, you are very good. You are worthy of being the crown prince who was established alone against all opinions."
  There was no hint of anger in his voice, just like usual, as if he was always praising others.
  "Father!" Jingye rolled his eyes, knelt down and said, "It's great that you are still alive!"
  The emperor stared at him and said nothing.
  Jingye wiped his tears and continued: "Father, I am worried to death. King Yu Jing Muling has teamed up with Shen Zhuoxi and Qin Huai to attack you with the intention of rebelling."
  "They also gave you a strange poison. If I hadn't arrived in time, you would have been killed by them!"
  Everyone was dumbfounded.
  No one could have imagined that Jingye actually had two faces, thicker than the city wall, confusing right and wrong.
  The emperor didn't expect it and didn't speak for a while.
  Jingye saw that everyone was silent and thought he had guessed it right - the emperor was unconscious just now, so he definitely didn't know what happened in the palace and couldn't hear their conversation.
  As long as the blame is placed on Jing Muling, he will still be safe!
  The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this method was feasible. Jingye continued to cry: "Father, I will order someone to invite the imperial doctor. Qin Huai can't believe it."
  "Wasn't it you who poisoned me?" The emperor breathed a sigh of relief, and his business became more and more old.
  Jingye shook his head repeatedly to express his innocence: "How dare I kill my father and kill my son? It's Jing Muling. He relies on his military exploits and covets the throne, and he can't help it anymore."
  "He also colluded with your grandmother, who has been serving you for many years, and his intentions are to be punished!"
  "Oh?" The emperor's emotions gradually calmed down, and he stared at Jingye expressionlessly, and said slowly: "In your opinion, the one who is having trouble with Concubine Qin, Meiren Wu and other concubines is also King Yu?"
  Jingye was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes gradually widened.
  "Gu is unconscious, but his ears can hear." The emperor paused and snorted: "Gu heard every word of the conversation between you and King Yu."
  "Jingye, Gu has been cultivating you all these years. Is this how you repay Gu?"
  Only now did Jingye become completely frightened. He quibbled in a trembling voice: "Father, please listen to my explanation..."
  However, the emperor heard the whole story clearly and did not want to hear a word of his sophistry. He interrupted: "If you have anything to say, go to the ancestors and confess."
  As he said that, the emperor waved his hands and said in a voice full of exhaustion: "Come here, I will tell you the prince's will. The prince plans to kill the king and depose him as a commoner. He will be quartered with five horses and his body will be hung at the city gate for seven days."
  "All the cronies in the Prince's Mansion will be killed with a stick. The people who serve in the Prince's Mansion will all be sent to the border areas. The concubines related to the Prince will be killed by the nine tribes!"
  Jingye was still wailing and begging for mercy, but he was gagged and dragged off by the guards. No one of the Jinyi guards were left behind, and he was escorted for interrogation by the people brought by Li Jue.
  In the room, only the emperor, Eunuch Fu, Shen Zhuoxi, Jing Muling, Qin Huai and a few of their confidants were left.
  The emperor couldn't bear it anymore and fell back.
  Qin Huai supported him and comforted him: "Your Majesty, please take care of yourself."
  "I didn't expect Gu to raise a wolf cub." The emperor closed his eyes tiredly and said, "When did he bribe Gu's confidants, Eunuch Fu and Nanny Zhang, and when did he poison Gu?"
  "When did you get along with Gu's concubine, and when did you plan this situation? Gu didn't understand at all. It seems that Gu is really old!"
  Everyone was silent, no one answered.
  The emperor didn't speak either. The palace was as quiet as death. The only thing that could be heard was the emperor's heavy breathing, occasionally mixed with a sound of phlegm.
  After a long time, Eunuch Fu said with a tearful tone: "Your Majesty, in April last year, after the prince's birthday, he coerced and lured Lao Nu and Aunt Zhang. From that time on, there was medicine in your tonic soup."
  The emperor paused and took a deep breath: "If I remember correctly, you will also taste what I put in your mouth, right?"
  "Yes." Eunuch Fu nodded, snot and tears dripping down his cheeks: "But every time I only tasted a little bit, so the poison in my body has not yet taken effect."
  The emperor opened his eyes and looked sideways at Eunuch Fu, who was looking embarrassed on the ground. He was very strange: "You have served Gu for many years. What benefits has he given you, and you are not willing to die with Gu?"
  "Son." Eunuch Fu sobbed, "Fu Qing is Lao Nu's biological son. No one knows about this matter, not even you, but the prince doesn't know where he found out about it."
  "The old slave is a useless person. His only bloodline is Fuqing. We can't let him be harmed by the old slave!"
  "That's it." The emperor actually laughed: "Do you think that Gu can't find out what the prince knows? Gu has known Fu Qing's identity for a long time, and he cares about your identity and dignity, so he allows you to recognize him as your adopted son. .”
  "You even had people protecting him all the way to the Hanlin Academy. Fu'an, you really let me down."
  When Eunuch Fu heard what the emperor said, he was stunned.
  After a while, Mr. Fu kowtowed heavily and said: "I am ashamed of your Majesty. I have no hope in this life. I wish to be a cow or a horse in the next life. Your Majesty, I will go to Huangquan first to explore the way for you!"
  After saying that, he bit his tongue hard.
  The emperor closed his eyes, and tears fell with his movements: "Drag him out, don't dirty the Chengqian Palace."
  After dealing with Eunuch Fu, the emperor opened his eyes and looked at Jing Muling, his expression as complex as ever: "Thanks to you today."
  "As a minister, everything is your duty." Jing Muling nodded slightly: "Your Majesty, there is no need to say thank you."
  "For so many years, I have had the heart of a lonely person, and I can't help you." The emperor sighed heavily: "Is there really no cure for the poison in Gu's body?"
  No one answered his words, and the emperor laughed: "King Yu, stay here, and the others can go out first."
  Shen Zhuoxi went out with everyone.
  Standing outside the palace, Qin Huai wiped the cold sweat from his face: "It's too thrilling. If His Highness King Yu hadn't been decisive and the second lady's superb medical skills, we would have been doomed today!"
  "If you survive a catastrophe, you will be blessed later." Shen Zhuoxi thought for a while, then asked Zhengfeng: "Did I already know that the prince would take action today?"
  Zhengfeng nodded: "The emperor has long been suspicious about the concubine, but the object of suspicion is the palace guards, not the prince. The prince must be anxious and worried that the matter will be exposed."
  "Even the order to summon the prince today was sent out by the crown prince. Fortunately, the prince has already prepared it. Otherwise, as the head of Qin said, no one can escape."
  "It's over. Qin Huai is waiting here. I wrote a prescription. You just follow the prescription to diagnose and treat the emperor." Shen Zhuoxi handed over the previous piece of paper and said, "I will report back to the Queen Mother."
