Chapter 1483: Guards, Protect Me!

“It seems like Your Majesty doesn’t want to write the abdication edict.” Master Shao narrowed his eyes, a vicious glint flashing through them.
He did not want to kill anyone, but if the old Emperor wanted to die, he did not mind killing him. He was already in the imperial study anyway. He simply had to write the edict in the same handwriting as the Emperor’s.
He would then tell everyone that the Third Prince had killed the old Emperor so that he could also get rid of the Third Prince.
The old Emperor had been staring at Master Shao and naturally noticed the viciousness and murderous intent in his eyes. He could not help but take a step back, falling hard onto the chair.
“What are you trying to do? This is the imperial study. If you dare to mess around, just wait for the Shao family to be destroyed!”
He was really afraid of Master Shao. If Master Shao wanted to kill recklessly here, he would have little chance of winning due to his powerlessness.
“As long as Yang’er holds this position, who will dare touch the Shao family?” Master Shao chuckled and retorted.
He had every intention to kill, especially after the old Emperor noticed his intentions. He felt that he could not let the old Emperor live. If the old Emperor did not die today, the Shao family would be wiped out in the future.
However, he could not kill the old Emperor now.
The old Emperor had to be alive to abdicate. If he died, only his son would succeed him. Master Shao’s grandson, Prince Luoyang, would not stand a chance.
He looked up at the old Emperor with a serious expression, realizing that his only option was to poison him.
“I really want to kill you and end things. Unfortunately, I can’t do that now!”
With that, he took out a porcelain bottle, poured out a medicinal pill, and examined it carefully.
“You…”
The old Emperor was dumbfounded. He did not expect Master Shao to act so hastily. When he said he would take action, he did so without hesitation.
He immediately shouted in panic, “Guards! Guards! Protect me!”
However, he had forgotten that he had sent his eunuch away because of Master Shao. No one would enter, even if he shouted his lungs out.
“Tsk, Master Shao is really bold.”
Outside the imperial study, An Jiuyue could vaguely see what was happening inside. She had overheard their conversation.
She could imagine how frustrated the Emperor was! The person he had hoped would come to his rescue turned out to be another one trying to seize his throne.
She could not help but feel embarrassed for the old Emperor.
“The Shao family is ruthless. They’re not afraid to do anything,” Qian Jiyun said calmly as he glanced at An Jiuyue.
“Then should we help?” An Jiuyue asked.
Although she did not want the old Emperor to live for too long, she felt disgusted by the arrogant Master Shao.
She would not help the old Emperor, but she also could not stand seeing the smug Master Shao
“No need. Someone will clean up the mess,” Qian Jiyun said.
“Hm?” An Jiuyue raised her eyebrows and understood.
She heard noises nearby. It seemed like Eldest Brother Yan had arrived with some people.
However, even if someone came, they could not stop Master Shao from stuffing the poison into the old Emperor’s mouth.
