Back to Fate
Chapters. 81 Tragedies to the Emperor
So Eunuch Shan was forced to undo his intention to block them all. And let them enter the Empress's Palace.
While on the side of the Empress, now she understood one thing. Well the Empress who only saw one person from now on she could understand everything.
The reason why the Emperor was able to lower the Decree of this investigation order.
This could all happen to be caused by that person.
So that he from the beginning just looked at her with a cynical look and also had the intention to immediately finish her off.
"Oh turns out you're the cause, just look how I'm gonna fix it
you later, you useless lowly concubine child," Empress Xiao muttered as she clenched her fists tightly behind her hanfunya arms.
"Greet His Majesty the Empress," Second Prince Hou Juan Zi flatly and coldly greeted.
It was followed by Kasim Bao and the others to greet the Empress.
Even though their arrival at this place was to conduct an investigation, yet they all had to still conduct manners while inside the palace.
Because, however, the Empress was still an Imperial family before the judgment of the judge and also the approval of the emperor if the Empress was guilty.
"Yes, rise up the Prince and all of you" replied the cynical Empress.
Eunuch Bao and the people who followed him from the beginning had witnessed such a sharp and implied view of the great hatred of a Mother of the entire Wuxi Country.
And they could all deduce what the Empress had in mind at this time.
Because it has become a public secret, if all this time the Empress did not get along with the Emperor's favorite Grand Consort.
So did the empress' attitude towards all the Sons and Daughters of the Emperor which was not her own flesh and blood.
Although on the surface, the Empress Emperor always seemed gentle and considerate to every Prince and Princess of the Empire but in fact He would only care and give priority to his only Son Hou Lin Jin, who was his father, The current Crown Prince.
"What interest would it take for you all to visit this great Empress's residence in the middle of the day like this?"
empress Xiao asked pretending not to know.
Because actually, the Empress is currently buying time and trying to think of a way out, so that He can escape the court process.
At this time when the Emperor's eunuch Kasim Bao found this situation, then he could understand why the second prince Hou Juan Zi who was currently the object of the Empress's view was always being closed off, and also always be on the lookout for the surrounding environment as well as the people that the Second Prince cared about.
Because he knew that living inside the Imperial Palace was the same as living on the edge of a cliff that jutted into a steep ravine.
It can be life threatening at any time.
Moreover, the Second Prince himself knew that he had an enemy that had a higher standing than him.
"Pardon us Your Majesty the Great Emperor. This minister visited only to carry out tasks that should be our responsibility. We hope that Her Majesty the Empress will be pleased to make a good cooperation" the Second Prince impliedly said.
While the Empress who had heard the answer from Prince Hou Juan Zi was really furious.
"Oh so, how do you answer questions from your official parents? did your Mother, the Honorary Concubine, never teach you manners? or does he not know the order of the rama so that educating a child is not good," quipped Empress Xiao against Second Prince Hou Juan Zi.
"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, because my arrival this time as a Minister on duty is unethical if you have to do things like being friendly like an elder person and also the younger generation. I hope Your Majesty can understand the situation," the Second Prince replied in a landslide, which left the Empress speechless.
The empress who felt that she was no longer respected by the Second Prince became even more angry, so her gaze became even sharper.
"Alright, please for Mr. Minister to explain what your purpose is to come and disrupt the nap time of this Empress," asked the Empress very snubbed and unfriendly at all.
All of them who saw the reaction of such an Emperor consort became furious and wanted to immediately drag the cruel demonic woman before them currently who had the rank of Empress Empress of this Emperor into the underground custody and tortured him.
If only they hadn't listened to the Emperor's order forbidding them from making a scene in these few days.
They would never talk like this. And will instantly drag this angel-faced criminal towards the dreaded Yamen prisoner eh everyone.
Because they all seem meaningless in the eyes of the Wife of the Lord of the Land of Wuxi.
Until Sang Kasim Bao himself never entered the view in the eyes of the woman belonging to Emperor Hou Yuan Yu.
So that the Eunuch Bao actually remembered the message of Prince Hou Juan Zi the other day. Yang said he had to be wary of the food and food provided for His Majesty the Emperor.
Now the Eunuch Bao also became convinced that all the masterminds behind all the events that befell his lord were the Empress herself.
Because all this time the person who often set the diet of the Emperor was Empress Xiao herself.
Suppose not, it would have ended very badly and it was possible that the current situation would have been very uncontrollable given the arrogant and arrogant conduct of the Empress Emperor.
But thanks to the Second Prince's pills that are really useful and also managed to save the Emperor from death that eats away at the Emperor's age every second. Making the Eunuch Bao able to neutralize the bit of anger that He had endured until now .
Because after the departure of the Second Prince at that time after giving up the two very rare pills, Kasim Bao did not waste any more time to see the Emperor.
The one who was also panting while holding his chest. And also seem to endure pain that too.
Finally, He immediately sent a guardian of his lord's trust to immediately bring the royal physician to care for the Emperor.
Kasim Bao returned immediately and also moved the Emperor to the bed that was provided in the room next to the Emperor's workplace, the one used to rest by the Emperor when he was tired of checking all the files and rolls of reports that always piled up on his desk.
Just when Eunuch Bao had managed to lay the Emperor's body on the bed, it was also the trained bodyguard that he had sent back along with an Imperial Physician.
And immediately entered the room where the Emperor was currently.
While Eunuch Bao who saw the arrival of the Imperial Physician immediately invited him to check the state of the Emperor who was in pain in his left chest.
He even forgot the pill that Second Prince Hou Juan Zi gave him earlier.
Because Eunuch Bao was too panicked and also worried about the state of the Emperor.
Not even the Imperial Physician dared to buy any more time. He immediately rushed to the side of Emperor Hou Yuan Yu's bed that was fainting and immediately checked his pulse.
And how shocked the physician was when he realized that the Emperor had been poisoned, and that poison was a poison that had been in the body of the Emperor of the Wuxi Country for a long time, for attacking and destroying all organs of this ruler.
Actually, this type of poison will be easily handled when there is no booster that activates the poison that has been in the Emperor's body.
But at this time the poison was already active and had also damaged all the internal organs of the Emperor, so it would be very difficult to handle it.
Even the Imperial Physician was currently sitting limp next to the bed.
Because he was also frightened because he felt unable to cope with this situation.
The Eunuch Bao as well as the Emperor's bodyguards who were currently watching the situation there and seeing the Physician who had an overreaction, they immediately knew that the current illness of the Emperor was very serious.
So Kasim bao directly asked the current state of the Emperor to the Imperial Physician.
But only got the arm from the healer.
After a while, the Imperial Physician was finally able to control himself and become calmer, even though he actually felt very scared and worried.
But he still told the true state of the Emperor to the two trusted people of the Emperor.
"The current state of His Majesty the Emperor is completely out of my control. He has been poisoned and from the examination that I did it is most likely that the poison has been lodged in the body of His Majesty the Emperor for approximately 2-3 years and has been driven by something that makes poison it was active," said the imperial physician paused.
"Actually this poison will be easy to handle if it has not gotten its booster. But in general, this poison is rather difficult to detect if under normal circumstances. Even most people who are exposed to this type of poison will appear healthy and as usual. It's just that if the levels of toxins in his body are too much it will start to have an effect on health but not serious. Such as fatigue and sleepiness, or even make people who suffer from this poison will experience abnormal thirst. Or in other words drink more often than normal,” said the physician explained.
He sighed deeply before saying that the Emperor had no hope of finding the antidote within two hours.
Because the antidote will be determined by the driving agent of the poison itself. Because the poison can be active if driven by any material that is hot or warms the body. It was mixed with the poison in the potion or food that had been consumed by the Emperor.
Both of the Emperor's confidants were now in a state of panic and also kept thinking about how the Emperor could be healed immediately.
But suddenly Kasim Bao seemed to be enlightened, because considering the pills given by the second son of the Emperor earlier, one of which he knew was the antidote pill for all high-level poison.
When Xiu Cheng Li, the Emperor's bodyguard, was about to go to inform the Imperial Majesty of the entire Imperial Family, he was suddenly stopped by Eunuch Bao.
“Li's bodyguard, where do you want to go?” asked Kasim Bao who saw the Emperor's bodyguard was about to leave in a hurry.
“One of us must have informed the circumstances of His Majesty the Emperor to this entire Imperial Family. Eunuch Bao you keep His Majesty the Emperor here. I will be back soon,” replied the bodyguard Li who looked very worried.
“Wait a minute Li's bodyguard, we don't know the source of this poison yet. But I'm sure the culprit is an insider. So we can't take any chances if this news gets out. And it was taken advantage of by the people involved,” said Kasim Bao who tried to see the danger situation that began to lurk the Emperor.
"And you Physician, do you really not know it or find a way for His Majesty the Emperor to escape this state?” ask Kasim Bao to the Imperial Physician.” Ask Kasim Bao.
“Pardon my incompetence sir, I can only concoct pain relief potions and also hold this poison for the time being. But still have to find the antidote to the poison. If not that..” the healer does not dare to continue his words.
However, everyone there could tell the meaning of the words of the Imperial physician, who had left the place to immediately make a medicinal herb for the Emperor and was not prevented by Eunuch Bao because it had gone far.
“ But this situation has also been too urgent that we cannot make a decision regarding His Majesty the Emperor himself. At least we should report this news to Her Majesty The Queen Mother,” Xiu Cheng Li replied to Eunuch Bao.
