"It's not good, the third prince is vomiting blood again."
This is already the third time, and there is still no antidote. The third prince is only afraid...
Concubine Xian's face changed drastically. At this time, she no longer cared about the third prince's future situation. She only had one thought in her mind now, which was to let the third prince live.
So she knelt before the emperor and begged, "Your Majesty, please issue the decree quickly, otherwise it will be too late."
The emperor frowned and remained silent.
After seeing what he was thinking, Jiu Qingzi sneered, "I thought your cool temperament had changed after so many years of not seeing each other. But now it seems that you haven't changed at all, you are just better at acting."
"Shut up." The emperor glared at Jiu Qingzi, still unwilling to express his position.
Seeing this, Concubine Xian began to kowtow to the emperor. Everyone present felt that the emperor would be angry again. The third prince was also his most beloved prince, and the emperor would definitely agree later.
Only Jiu Qingzi knew that the emperor in front of him was just a sinister villain. He could naturally be kind to people who were useful to him, but once this person had no use value, his life and death would have nothing to do with her.
The reason why His Majesty treats the third prince differently is not because of the relationship between father and son. Otherwise, Xie Lan is also his son, why would he be so unfeeling towards him?
It is said that Concubine Xian's natal family produced several capable young people. This should be the key.
But compared with the emperor's face and Jingguo's reputation, these are not worth mentioning.
After all, even though they are powerful, they are just ministers of Jingguo.
The emperor wanted to use this opportunity to kill the third prince so that he could cover up what happened six months ago. After seeing through his mind, Jiu Qingzi said deliberately, "When a person dies, the things he has done will not disappear. Then I will let someone kill your majesty." The news that he refused to save his son spread..."
"You dare to threaten me?" His thoughts were revealed, and the emperor's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
"I am not afraid of your revenge if I dare to show up today." After living incognito for so many years, he never thought that he would return to this place one day...a place that everyone yearned for but he could not avoid.
That's all, if you owe a debt, you have to pay it back.
This is probably karma.
"Your Majesty, if you hesitate any longer, the third prince will undoubtedly die, but your trick of doting on the third prince will be exposed."
What does Jiu Qingzi mean?
Doesn't His Majesty really love the third prince?
Concubine Xian guessed something and her expression changed slightly, but the most important thing now was to save the third prince.
"Your Majesty, please, please save the third prince." Concubine Xian knocked her forehead so much that it swelled up, but she continued as if she couldn't feel the pain.
The Queen Mother saw that all the palace people in the room were looking here, and she felt very unhappy, "Okay, Your Majesty, go and write down the moves now. Is it time for you to hand over the antidote?"
"The antidote will be delivered to you as soon as your Majesty writes it."
His Majesty snorted coldly, turned around and wrote an edict with a big stroke of a pen, and then handed it to Jiu Qingzi. After Jiu Qingzi read the content and made sure there was no problem, he handed the antidote to Tao Yaoyao.
"Go and give it to him."
Tao Yaoyao followed the guards in, and after she gave the third prince the antidote, she took his pulse.
"His condition is not good. Even if he wakes up today, he will not have the strength to go to Wenlou." Tao Yaoyao was worried that something might happen if this matter was delayed for a long time, but the third prince's body was indeed weak. Even if he was forced to go there now, , it’s useless if you can’t do anything.
"Don't worry, I can do it early tomorrow morning."
After the three of them left the palace, Tao Yaoyao expressed her worries, "What if His Majesty doesn't want this matter to become a big deal and attacks the third prince? Wouldn't our efforts today be in vain?"
Xie Lan frowned but said nothing.
Jiu Qingzi knew the emperor better than them, and after hearing this, his attitude was the most relaxed, "The emperor did have this intention at the beginning, but after I exposed his mind, he would not do it again.
Think about it, this matter has been revealed, and there were many palace people in the room just now. Even though these people have received many orders, do you think there can be an airtight wall in this world?
His Majesty must have felt that this matter was well hidden before, but it has not been revealed yet.
Now that the third prince is helping him bear all the consequences, if he is still not satisfied and the matter is brought out later, he will have to take the blame himself.
You have also seen that with his temperament, how could he let himself bear all this. "
Tao Yaoyao thought about it carefully and felt that it made sense.
At this time, the three of them came to the carriage. When Jiu Qingzi was about to get on the carriage, Xiao Shuo brought someone over.
"Master Xiao, why are you here?" Tao Yaoyao wondered, why did you come to the palace to handle the case in Dali Temple? Later, I realized that there was something wrong with the way Xiao Shuo looked at her. After thinking for a while, the smile in his eyes disappeared, followed by a serious look, "Are you here to see me?"
"Yes." After a pause, Xiao Shuo explained, "Master Zhou personally sent your whereabouts to Dali Temple, so..." He couldn't help her this time.
So that's it.
"Thank you very much before." Tao Yaoyao walked up to them and turned to look at Xie Lan before leaving, "Thank you today."
"Wait a minute." Jiu Qingzi handed her a small porcelain bottle, "Antidote."
Tao Yaoyao almost forgot about it, so she took out the pills, drank them, and then left with the people from Dali Temple.
Xie Lan stood in front of the carriage, watching the carriage from Dali Temple getting further and further away. Jiu Qingzi looked at him, then at the carriage that had long since disappeared, and suddenly smiled and said, "You kid, you won't fall in love with the Tao family." It’s a girl, right?”
Tao Shi'an happened to hear these words when he brought the Tao sisters out. Tao Qianqian's eyes flashed with surprise, and then returned to the gentleness and calmness of the past.
Tao Yun'er looked disdainful, "Even if the eldest sister is somewhat pretty, what qualifications does a person who has broken off an engagement have to be the princess?"
Tao Yun'er's voice was neither loud nor quiet, just enough for people nearby to hear.
Tao Shi'an noticed Xie Lan looking over and quickly turned to glare at Tao Yun'er, "Shut up, you can't guess what the prince is thinking."
Even His Majesty can't control King Dingbei, so he doesn't think he can do anything.
After what happened today, Tao Shi'an just wants to keep a low profile these days.
Everyone said that His Majesty doted on the third prince, but the third prince was convicted before he was convicted.
Where is Wenlou? That is the most sacred place in the hearts of scholars in the world. He can imagine that tomorrow the third prince will stand there and say what happened half a year ago, and his reputation will be ruined as the lightest result. I'm afraid...
Now, he was extremely glad that Tao Yaoyao had no relationship with the third prince, otherwise the Tao family would also be implicated.
"Dad, what are you doing? Did I say something wrong?"
The Tao family's carriage left quickly, and Jiu Qingzi laughed twice before getting on the carriage.
After Jiu Qingzi and the others left, the emperor and the queen mother also left the third prince's palace. Concubine Xian sat in front of the bed, her face changing again and again. After an unknown amount of time, the third prince finally opened his eyes.
"Mother concubine."
The third prince felt uncomfortable and weak all over. After learning that he had been poisoned, he was very angry. "Mother, concubine, who wants to harm this prince? Has anyone caught him?"
"Your Majesty, please don't worry about these things. Take good care of your body first. When your body is well taken care of, it is more important than anything else."
The third prince felt that Concubine Xian was a little strange. She was usually angrier than him at this time, but why was she so calm today, as if she was talking about a very normal thing.
The wise concubine could bear this tone, but the third prince could not.
"If my mother doesn't help me find the person, I will think of a way for myself." He was about to find a guard. Seeing this, Concubine Xian quickly stopped her and said, "Have you had enough trouble? Don't you think the matter is not big enough?
I told you before that you should not act rashly until you have taken a seat, but you just didn't listen.
You always say that your father loves you and will help you no matter what happens, but what is the reality? "
"This is also true. The mother-in-law has forgotten what happened last time. If someone else had done such a thing, they would have died several times. But as for this prince, he was only banned for a few days..."
"That's because your good father wants to make you bear a bigger crime." Concubine Xian just figured it out, but it was too late.
How arrogant and arrogant she was in the past, now she regrets it so much.
Why does she believe that the royal family has family ties?
Xie Lan is His Majesty's legitimate son. I think back then, Your Majesty loved him very much. He didn't give up just yet. As for the third prince, he would not take it seriously if he had no abilities and no means.
It's a pity that he only understands all this now.
"Mother, what do you want to say?" The third prince said displeasedly, "You know, I don't have much patience..."
"You will have more patience in the future, but unfortunately, there is no way back for you." Concubine Xian cried and recounted what had just happened. The third prince went from shock and disbelief at the beginning to uneasiness and panic later on. I don't want to admit it now.
"Mother, what you said is not true. How could my father treat me like this? The prince he loves most is me. He said that this world will also be mine in the future.
There's no way he could lie to me.
How could one person use so many years just for today? "
The third prince grew up in the harem and had never seen any kind of conspiracy. In fact, he believed Concubine Xian when she first opened her mouth, but he was unwilling to admit it.
In the end, he had such a horrible feeling that his hope was dashed, so much so that he neither dared nor wanted to believe this fact.
He did these things because of his father's favor and connivance. If he had known earlier that these were just a scam...
"Where is the father? Concubine, I want to see the father..."
Dali Temple Dalao
"Miss Tao, don't worry, this case has some clues." Xiao Shuo was worried that she would be scared, so he said this before leaving.
Soon Xiao Shuo sent Qiu Gui back. After Qiu Gui discovered that the wound on Tao Yaoyao's back had cracked, she cried and applied medicine to her, "Miss, when can we leave here? This slave is really getting more and more scared."
"What are you afraid of? You won't die, and neither will your lady. We will all live well."
