Chapter 247 The Emperor is furious
Inside the palace.
Because of today's commotion, the old emperor was unable to leave the palace. When it was time for dinner, the secret guards placed the things they had investigated on the dragon table and stood quietly aside.
The old emperor was shaking with anger as he read the survey page by page.
[The prince loved beautiful women, and especially loved torturing his daughters in bed for fun. Hundreds of women died in bed.]
[There is a secret room in the Prince's Mansion, which is used for interrogation. Some ministers whose bodies have not been found died in it.]
[The prince kidnapped the daughter of the left prime minister, just because the left prime minister's mansion treated him badly and refused to accept his solicitation, so he wanted to kill Miss Xia Shi]
[Before the prince was struck by lightning, he wanted to arrange for someone to spread the rumor that the princess who protects the country was a demon]
【Prince...】
【Prince...】
Every result made the old emperor dizzy. He had vowed during the day that the prince would not be so reckless and sent the left prime minister back home to wait for news.
Now, every word was saying that the prince was cruel and brutal, had no heart of a benevolent monarch, and was certainly not a wise ruler.
To say that he had misjudged the person is like slapping him in the face.
Then he became so angry that he vomited blood, which scared the eunuch so much that he immediately shouted for the imperial physician outside.
He casually glanced at the contents of the letter, his pupils shrank tightly, he was so shocked.
The prince, who always appeared gentle and kind to others, was actually so cruel in private. He had never heard of this in the harem for many years. Presumably, those who knew the news had been killed long ago.
She hurriedly put the letter away and put it on her body, not wanting anyone else to see it until the emperor woke up.
Of course, he wasn't human, so he didn't see it.
Naturally, the news of the old emperor's sudden coma could not be concealed and soon spread out of the palace. All civil and military officials were shocked and put on their court robes and entered the palace.
They were also very nervous, worried that someone would cause trouble at this moment. If there really was a coup, it would be dangerous inside the palace.
The left prime minister was fine, as he knew that the old emperor was in good health and would not die any time soon. Just as he was about to go out, he saw Mrs. He coming towards him hurriedly with a bamboo tube.
There was still a hint of excitement in her expression. She held his hand and said, "Just now... just now..."
"Yan'er and I were cleaning Ning Bao, and suddenly a bamboo tube filled with water appeared on the bed, filled with the fragrance of peach blossoms."
"At that time, Yan'er thought Ning Bao had woken up, so she wanted to talk to her, but after asking for a long time, there was still no response."
"I tried to ask if the water was for you, and Ning Bao actually moved his fingers!!!"
Mrs. He's voice was trembling as she spoke, and her feet were weak and she could hardly stand. Without paying attention to the difference between men and women, Prime Minister Zuo reached out to support her and asked, "Anything else?"
"Then Yan'er asked if it was for the one in the palace?"
"Ning Bao moved his fingers again, and then he didn't move anymore, so he hurriedly brought it over."
"Things in the capital are complicated and I don't understand them. Ning'er is smart. She must have her reasons for doing this."
Zuo Xiang was still shocked that the little girl was conscious, which meant she could hear the noises around her, which meant she was trapped by something.
Now that you know the old emperor is in trouble, you specially send the magic water to save him?
Time was running out, so he nodded and hurried into the palace with the bamboo tube. Covered by his court robes, he was not discovered by the guards.
The group of people knelt outside the emperor's bedroom, their hearts filled with anxiety, hoping that the emperor would be safe and sound and last a little longer, otherwise...
The eunuch came out of the room and saw the ministers waiting anxiously, so he said, "The emperor is fine, ministers please move to the side hall and wait for a while."
He looked to the front and said respectfully, "Go up and call the Left Prime Minister to come in and talk."
Xia Yunle was originally worried about the bamboo tube water, and now he was relieved when he was called in.
After entering, he knelt on the ground and said: "Your Majesty, long live the emperor."
The old emperor leaned against the head of the bed, looking at the left prime minister kneeling on the ground. He rarely showed any different emotions and sighed deeply.
"Get up and come closer to talk."
The eunuch quickly took a round stool and placed it as close to the old emperor as possible.
After the left prime minister sat down, he said, "I have something very happy to tell you. Your Majesty will be pleased to hear it."
"Oh? What's the good news? Tell me about it."
"I was originally accompanying Ning Bao in Liuli Pavilion when I heard that the emperor was unwell, so I wanted to rush to the palace."
"Who would have known that a bamboo tube filled with water suddenly appeared next to Ning Bao. After asking a few times, I found out..." His tone was full of undisguised excitement, and he took out the bamboo tube hidden in his clothes.
He scratched his head a little embarrassedly and said, "I also know that you are not allowed to bring other things into the palace. I thought Ning Bao was worried about your health, so I hid it in my clothes."
"I made the mistake first, please punish me, Your Majesty."
The old emperor was in a particularly complicated mood. He looked at the bamboo tube and waved his hand. The eunuch hurriedly took it. The bamboo tube was icy and delicate to the touch. He could rub it lightly with his fingers without getting irritated.
"Get up now. Ning Bao is worried about my health. How can I blame her?"
"It's just a pity that Ning Bao is still lying in bed. Now she is still worried about me. In the end, the royal family owes her too much."
Just now when he was unconscious, he saw his ancestors again. His father said angrily that he could not die and had to come back to clean up the mess for Ning Bao.
If that vicious prince fails to live up to his expectations, he will be killed and handed over to the ancestors to be taken care of, otherwise his descendants will suffer.
He thought about it and realized that his father was right. It was just one son, and he had other sons.
As long as they are of his blood, it doesn’t matter who becomes the emperor, because it is their kingdom.
He was scolded by the ancestors for being useless again. He was so angry that he vomited blood over such a small matter. After he was repeatedly reminded to take good care of Ning Bao, he was kicked back by his father.
The matter is already very clear. His ancestors will protect Ning Bao. As for the crown prince...
Then let's change him. Break his legs and feet, pull out his tongue, and lock him up in the mansion. If he causes trouble again, send him down to be punished by our ancestors.
He casually opened the lid of the bamboo tube, and the fragrance of peach blossoms instantly filled the bedroom, making him feel much more comfortable. He couldn't help but take a sip.
The eunuch quickly stretched out his hand to stop him: "Your Majesty, everything you put in your mouth has to be tested for poison, please wait a moment."
The old emperor was a little dissatisfied when he saw the fragrance was taken away after just a slight taste. He said, "You old thing are getting more and more arrogant because of your favor. Now you are even controlling me."
Looking at the left prime minister sitting on the side, he said, "Don't worry, I have already sent someone to investigate. If the prince is at fault, he will be severely punished."
"When the emperor breaks the law, he is subject to the same punishment as the common people, even the crown prince is no exception."
"Now, Ning Bao is the most important person. Can you believe what I say, Prime Minister Zuo?"
