The capital was in chaos. They did not know where the Third Prince was and had to send people to look for him. However, they could not delay the Emperor’s treatment.
The eunuch walked out and looked at the dark sky. He sighed softly.
“Sigh, if only you had known earlier, why did it have to come to this?”
Why did the Emperor choose to favor those with ulterior motives and unscrupulous means to achieve their goals instead of favoring his filial sons?
However…
He turned to look at the imperial study.
He had served the old Emperor for so many years. He knew the old emperor’s character best. The type of son he favored reflected his own personality, right?
Who else could the Emperor blame for ending up like this?
“Eunuchs!”
“Master, what can I do for you?” A young eunuch jogged over from afar.
“Gather more people to look for the Third Prince outside the palace. Tell him that the Emperor is looking for him for something important,” the eunuch instructed.
The young eunuch looked up at his master in surprise, his eyes filled with confusion.
Why would the Emperor look for the Third Prince? Didn’t he want him to die as soon as possible? Although the old Emperor did not admit it out loud, everyone knew.
But the Emperor was summoning the Third Prince to the palace?
“Yes, Master. I’ll bring a few more people to look for him now.” The young eunuch did not dare to question it and turned around quickly.
They had not even left the palace when the Third Prince arrived with Prince Luoyang. Qian Jiyun, who had come to watch the commotion, brought An Jiuyue with him.
The imperial physicians remained kneeling in the imperial study.
Since the old Emperor did not ask them to get up, they did not dare to.
Their hearts raced in fear as they watched the old Emperor’s face turn increasingly pale. They were afraid he would suffocate because he could not catch his breath.
The old Emperor’s face remained ashen. He wished he could get someone to drag these imperial physicians out and kill them to accompany him to his grave.
However, he remembered that he could not die just like that. He wanted to live longer, so he did not do something so ill-omened.
After some time, Eldest Brother Yan arrived.
Prince Luoyang was detained outside the imperial study. He entered alone and sighed when he saw all the imperial physicians on the ground.
As expected of his father! He was still so enthusiastic about offending people.
“Father, I’ve brought Prince Luoyang here. He should have the antidote on him. You should allow all the imperial physicians to get up. It’s not their fault that they can’t cure the Luoyang-Shao family’s poison.”
He spoke up for the imperial physicians as soon as he arrived.
Upon hearing that, the imperial physicians heaved a sigh of relief.
It would be great if there was an antidote. At the very least, their lives would be spared. If the old Emperor really could not be saved, who knew if he would issue an imperial edict to bury them with him?
“Everyone, get up. I’m here. You can leave first,” Eldest Brother Yan instructed the imperial physicians.
“Thank you, Third Prince. We’ll take our leave.”
With his approval, the imperial physicians stood up and helped each other out of the imperial study, regardless of whether the Emperor allowed them to get up or not.
Everyone fled quickly, afraid that the old Emperor would make them stay behind if they were any slower.
“You… You all… Pfft!”
The old Emperor was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood.
