Chu Yunfei raised her head slightly and looked at Emperor Mu fearlessly: "My daughter-in-law dares to guarantee with the head on her neck. What I just said is true."
Emperor Mu turned to look at Rong Cang, his eyes deep and unpredictable.
Rong Cang narrowed his eyes: "Everything she said is true."
Emperor Mu clenched the armrest, with a look of shock and anger in his eyes.
"Now that the words have been spoken, I will no longer hide from my father. The poison in my body is called Gu. It was plotted against me when I was young. It has been ten years now, and it only started to take effect half a year ago."
Emperor Mu was shocked and looked at him in disbelief: "Ten years?"
"Yes." Rong Cang also stood up and knelt down, "The poison is difficult to cure, and ordinary doctors can't do anything about it. When the attack occurred half a year ago, I didn't dare to alert the hospital, and secretly concealed my identity to find a doctor for diagnosis and treatment. Only then did I learn that it was a poison, and It lasted at least eight or nine years. It was extremely difficult to undo the poison. After the attack, it would become more and more fierce each time, making people gradually lose their mind, become out of control, irritable, and even crazy. Erchen had no choice but to give birth to divorced wife. idea.”
Emperor Mu leaned motionless on the dragon couch, his expression was deep and unpredictable, and he couldn't distinguish between joy and anger.
"My son was worried that when he couldn't control his mind, he would accidentally hurt her or even kill her." Rong Cang's voice was low and indifferent, and he could not hear the anger of being plotted. He seemed to have already accepted this fact, "But Yun Fei She did not give up on her son. She pretended to be angry about the divorce and threatened her father-in-law to go to the palace for impeachment, causing him to be beaten with a stick. In fact, she just wanted to take this opportunity to find out the truth about his change of heart. Under her tricks and questioning, he The minister’s personal guard finally told her the truth.”
After a pause, Rong Cang said: "She threatened the child in her belly, so I had to compromise. I temporarily put aside the divorce plan and agreed to work with her to find a way to get rid of this tricky poison."
Emperor Mu closed his eyes gently, a storm surged in his heart, and the rage like a storm burned his internal organs until it hurt.
He suddenly felt that he, the emperor, was a joke.
Childhood.
His son was being plotted right under his nose, but he didn't know it.
If the poison has occurred in these years, if Rong Cang has an accident on the battlefield due to the poison, if when he divorces his wife, Chu Yunfei really takes the divorce letter and leaves... With Rong Cang's mute and bad temper, isn't it? You won't tell him the truth until you die?
Emperor Mu suddenly felt tired, and after a long time he said in a deep voice: "Prince Zhan just said there was evidence, what did you mean?"
"After Rong Cang was injured and returned home, the ointment given to him by Imperial Physician Liu contained the addictive aphrodisiac. This medicine has a miraculous effect in relieving pain, but if used more than three times, it will become addictive. From now on, he can't live without it. It creates dependence." Chu Yunfei's face turned pale. Thinking of one plan after another, even if he could handle it, his heart felt cold. "Even if the injury is healed in the future, he will still have an urgent desire for this medicine, and he will be affected by the medicine for life. control."
boom!
Emperor Mu suddenly stood up and swept the tea cups and utensils off the table. He even threw away several memorials.
The violent movement instantly alarmed Yang Dexi who was outside. He broke in without any explanation, knelt down and said, "Please calm down, Your Majesty!"
"Get out!" Emperor Mu was furious, "Get out of here, everyone!"
Yang Dexi's face turned pale, and he retreated tremblingly.
The hall was as quiet as death.
Emperor Mu looked down at Chu Yunfei from a high position: "Princess Zhan, do you know what it is to deceive the emperor?"
"If your daughter-in-law dares to lie, she will be at your mercy." Chu Yunfei said in a calm voice, "The body will be quartered on five horses and executed at Ling Chi. She will never cry out for mercy."
Emperor Mu slowly sat back on the chair, his anger swelling in his chest. After a while, he forced himself to suppress the emotion and slowly sit up straight.
After taking a deep breath, he spoke tiredly: "Both of you, sit down."
"My daughter-in-law wants to ask her father not to interrogate Imperial Doctor Liu for the time being." Chu Yunfei lowered her head and said, "Before Rong Cang detoxifies, my daughter-in-law does not want to alert the snake. If she interrogates Imperial Doctor Liu, the mastermind behind it will know about it, and I will worry about poisoning." He jumped over the wall in a hurry and made actions that were detrimental to Rong Cang."
Emperor Mu didn't say anything, just looked at her deeply, and suddenly felt that Chu Yunfei's calmness and rationality were not comparable to many men.
Rong Cang is lucky to have Huiyan marry her.
"I already know about this matter. Since you can handle it on your own, I won't interfere too much." Emperor Mu's still angry voice sounded a bit majestic, "But don't mess around."
"Father, please rest assured."
"I must be present on the day of detoxification." Emperor Mu said, "Either I go to the Prince's Mansion, or you bring the doctor into the palace. I want to witness the detoxification process with my own eyes to ensure that Rong Cang's physical condition will not affect the future of the detoxification. Soldiers."
Chu Yunfei nodded: "Yes."
Emperor Mu was silent for a moment, then suddenly said: "Rong Cang, how does your mother and concubine treat you?"
Rong Cang was startled, and his voice was as cold as frost: "My son and my concubine are mother and son. No matter how my mother treats my son, my son has nothing to say."
Emperor Mu hummed: "Although I still don't know why your mother-in-law is partial, you are her son and you must not be resentful towards her."
"Father, don't worry, I will not hold any grudge against anyone." Rong Cang said calmly, "It's just that I can't get close to her. I hope my father will understand."
Emperor Mu looked at his calm and reserved son and suddenly realized that he actually owed him a lot.
He was obviously the son of a noble concubine and should enjoy the glory and wealth that a prince should have, but from childhood to the age of fourteen, he had such a difficult life.
He went to the border at the age of fourteen and spent ten years on the battlefield, in exchange for various injuries, just to stay away from his mother.
After finally getting married, they were poisoned again... No, they were poisoned ten years ago.
While she was recuperating, her wife was being made things difficult for them outside, and even her direct brother, the emperor, refused to stand up for them.
Emperor Mu felt guilty and blamed himself, and took a fan from the imperial desk: "This fan is a royal object, which means 'if I am here in person'. Princess Zhan, I will reward you with it."
Chu Yunfei raised his eyes in surprise: "Father?"
"You can take it in and out of the harem at will. If you have any difficulties and need help, you can go to the queen. If the queen can't solve it, come to me."
Chu Yunfei shook his head: "Father, my daughter-in-law doesn't need this."
"Father, you don't have to be like this." Rong Cang continued, "My son has recovered from his injuries and will be able to protect his wife in the future."
Emperor Mu sneered: "You still have the nerve to say that, I think it is the princess who is protecting you."
Chu Yunfei pursed her lips: "The prince is fragile, and the daughter-in-law should protect him."
Rong Cang glanced at her silently, with a smile flashing in his eyes: "Yes, my son is fragile, thanks to the protection of the princess."
Emperor Mu looked at the two people's glances, their expressions were strange for a moment, and the remaining anger in his heart suddenly disappeared.
Just like this in front of him, without covering up at all?
However, Emperor Mu was still pleased.
As a father, he really owed it. He used to think that Rong Cangsheng was indifferent and taciturn, but he didn't expect that he would suffer so much when he didn't know it.
This kid...
I have almost never seen him smile since he was a child. He is so indifferent that he seems to have no emotions or desires.
He never said a word when his mother treated him like that.
But it was the Sixth Emperor brother who was known to be gentle and tolerant, who was plotting him overtly and covertly.
Only then did Emperor Mu realize that you should not just look at people by their appearance, let alone listen to other people's words, because that person who seems gentle and filial may be hypocritical and selfish in private, and someone who seems indifferent and heartless may be sincere.
"It's been a long time since I got together with the princes and princesses." Emperor Mu gathered his emotions and spoke loudly, "Yang Dexi!"
Yang Dexi hurriedly entered from outside the palace, knelt down and listened to the order: "Your Majesty, this servant is here."
