Time Travelling: My Love from the Royal Family

"When will the poison begin to take effect in the emperor's body?"

"Its effect is not like those of common poisons. But I guess it won't be long before he finds out that there is something wrong with the pills. When he runs out of Longevity Pills, he will probably think that he would rather die than live without them," Harper carefully said. "He had slowly poisoned his own son to harm his health and get rid of him. And now, the son has also poisoned him and turned him into a drug addict in order to let it consume his body and spirit bit by bit. You could say it's retributive justice."

In the Tranquil Hall, the emperor had been feeling quite unwell. "Andy, bring me the pill."

"Yes, Your Majesty." In a hurry, Andy fetched a Longevity Pill for the emperor. Only when the emperor took it without delay did he finally feel at ease. He felt so relieved and was no longer on edge.

"How many pills have I taken today?" the emperor slowly asked.

"Your Majesty, you have already taken three pills today," Andy quickly answered. Seeing that there were only a few Long

very urgent matter at hand. Given that he didn't really have much time to think about it, all he could do was try his best to find the medicinal materials.

"Hodge, Lady Harper has remarkable medical skills. We can ask for her advice. Perhaps she'll be able to reproduce the Longevity Pill," someone suggested.

A bitter smile appeared on Hodge's face. After all, if Harper could make the Longevity Pill, the task wouldn't have been assigned to them in the first place. For that reason, he guessed that the emperor didn't want to risk letting Harper develop and make the Longevity Pill. And even if she managed to make it, the emperor probably wouldn't dare to take it.

After being persecuted by the former crown prince, now the emperor cherished his own life very much. He ordered imperial physicians to feel his pulse every day just in case, and all the food for him had to be examined strictly only in order to prevent him from being poisoned again. If the imperial physicians were unable to develop the Longevity Pill in time, the consequences would be unimaginable!
