"You are a bunch of good-for-nothings. Didn't I tell you to cure Imperial Concubine Shen no matter what?"

Seeing the dying Shen Xingyu, Yu Zhihan felt slightly touched and angrily scolded the imperial physician.

The doctors knelt down in fear and said, "Your Majesty, please calm down. I have tried my best, but Imperial Concubine Shen was stabbed in the heart and cannot be saved."

Several imperial doctors worked together to treat Shen Xingyu, using all sorts of elixirs and ginseng before they managed to stop the bleeding and keep her alive.

Seeing Yu Zhihan walked in safely, the worry in Shen Xingyu's eyes gradually dissipated.

"I have raised you all in vain, a bunch of useless people. Get out of here, Imperial Concubine Shen, why did you save me?"

Yu Zhihan held Shen Xingyu's hand and whispered that he had always put interests first towards Shen Xingyu and had no feelings for her at all.

"I am relieved to see that the emperor is fine. I have loved the emperor since I was a child. I am very happy to die for the emperor. It's a pity that I can't give birth to children for the emperor——"

Shen Xingyu spoke with difficulty, looking at Yu Zhihan with reluctance.

She engraved the man in front of her whom she had loved all her life deeply in her heart and slowly closed her eyes.

The hand held by Yu Zhihan slipped uncontrollably. Yu Zhihan felt a little moved. Perhaps Shen Xingyu was the only one who truly loved him.

In order to bring Leng Yan'an and Yu Chiran back to the palace, he tried every means to appease Shen Xingyu and let Shen Xingyu voluntarily give up the position of queen.

Shen Xingyu didn't want to put Yu Zhihan in a difficult position, so she agreed and helped to stabilize Tutor Shen. In the end, he let Shen Xingyu down.

Yu Xiaoxiao and Master Shen were very sad to see Shen Xingyu's death. Master Shen's eyes turned dark and he almost fainted.

"Royal Consort Shen has passed away. I have ordered that she be buried with the rites of an empress and be posthumously named empress Wenhui."

Yu Zhihan sighed, walked out of the side hall, and spoke in a serious voice.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Everyone hurriedly said that Shen Xingyu was the queen before and died because of the emperor, so there was nothing wrong with posthumously conferring her the title of queen.

Yan Sheng couldn't help but sigh in his heart that when Shen Xingyu was alive, Yu Zhihan only used Shen Xingyu.

Now that she has passed away, what is the point of posthumously conferring the title of empress? Yu Zhihan is used to superficial efforts.

There are many concubines in Yuzhihan's harem, but the only woman who is sincere to him and has no ulterior motives is Shen Xingyu.

"Your Majesty, Fang Siwen is dead. How should we deal with the matter of Concubine Yun's maid poisoning the Crown Prince?"

Lord Mu asked cautiously. He was terrified that night, fearing that he would be implicated.

Yu Zhihan just felt a slight headache and felt a little tired. Fang Siwen's words that he would not live long echoed in his mind.

Could it be that Fang Siwen secretly poisoned him? It seems that I need to find an imperial physician to treat him properly.

"Your Majesty, Fang Siwen wanted to poison the prince. This is enough to prove that although Fang Siwen and the Queen are both important people in the cabinet, they have been at odds for a long time. There may be some hidden story behind the Lingzhou incident." Seeing that the time was ripe, Yan Sheng struck while the iron was hot.

Yu Zhihan glanced at Yan Sheng and said, "It seems that I have misunderstood the Queen. I will send someone to investigate the Lingzhou matter again."

"As for Shuang'er and Fang Siwen colluding to poison the crown prince and indirectly killing Empress Wenhui, they were sentenced to be torn apart by five horses. Although Yunpin did not participate in this matter, she was also closely related to it. She was demoted to a concubine, and Princess Xiya will be raised by Shengpin in the future."

Yu Zhihan looked at Leng Ruoyun and said in a cold voice that he did not believe that Leng Ruoyun and Fang Siwen were not in collusion.

Just now, after Fang Siwen assassinated him, he was equally close to Sheng Xianxian and Leng Ruoyun, but he only held Leng Ruoyun hostage.

Everyone knows that Sheng Xianxian is his favorite concubine, and Leng Ruoyun is the concubine who has fallen out of favor.

But Fang Siwen chose to hold Leng Ruoyun hostage, which made him think more.

What's more, Fang Siming could clearly kill Leng Ruoyun with one blow, but he didn't do it. Instead, he pushed Leng Ruoyun out to block the blow, which further confirmed his thoughts.

Fang Siwen and Leng Ruoyun definitely know each other, and they even have a close relationship. Fang Siwen held Leng Ruoyun hostage in order to help her get rid of suspicion.

"No, Your Majesty, I cannot live without Xiya. Your Majesty can punish me in any way you want, but I only ask Your Majesty to let Xiya stay with me."

Leng Ruoyun's pupils sank, and she knelt on the ground, her eyes slightly red, begging.

How could this be possible? Yu Xiya was born after ten months of pregnancy, and Xiya was still young and couldn't leave her mother.

What's more, Sheng Xianxian has always been at odds with her and regards her as a thorn in her side, so how could she treat her daughter well?

Yu Zhihan was unmoved, "The queen is under house arrest, so shouldn't the prince be raised by the queen mother? You are of low status and are not qualified to raise the princess."

"Your Majesty, rest assured. I will take good care of Princess Xiya."

Seeing this, Sheng Xianxian couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth, and hurriedly saluted Yu Zhihan and said.

Leng Ruoyun's face suddenly turned pale, and her hatred for Yu Zhihan became stronger. Seeing Sheng Xianxian's smug look, she wanted to go up and tear her apart.

"It's getting late, you all should just go away." Yu Zhihan waved his hand and said in a deep voice.

Yan Sheng walked out of the hall and looked up at the sky. It was already dawn.

Master Shen was old, and he was so sad about Shen Xingyu's death that he almost fainted.

After all, Yu Xiaoxiao is the niece raised by Master Shen. She is worried about Master Shen and stays in the Master's Mansion temporarily.

Yan Sheng was about to go back home when Xue Jingxu stopped him.

"Prime Minister Yan, I haven't practiced martial arts with anyone for a long time. I feel itchy. Do you have time to practice martial arts with me?"

Xue Jingxu looked calm and said with a smile, if he guessed correctly, Yan Sheng was also from the Blood Bamboo Palace.

"Man is made of iron, and food is made of steel. Master Xue, I just ate a few bites at the banquet, and now I am starving. I don't have the energy to fight. How about you treat me to a meal, Master Xue, and we can talk after we are full and satisfied?"

Yan Sheng looked at Xue Jingxu, patted his belly, and said with a pout.

Xue Jingxu was stunned for a moment, then said in a gentle voice, "Prime Minister Yan, it is my fault for not thinking things through. I should treat you. I heard that a new restaurant has opened in the capital, so it's a good opportunity for us to try it."

Isn't this too obvious that he is just trying to eat and drink for free? However, he is curious about why Yan Sheng joined the Blood Bamboo Hall?

Yan Sheng is the young leader of Xue Clan. He is both talented and handsome, unruly, and disdains to flatter the powerful. He always follows his own way.

He admired and envied Yan Sheng for being able to do whatever he wanted without fearing the imperial power.

"Prime Minister Yan and Prince Xue are both very elegant. It's better to be young. They have more energy and better mental qualities."

Lord Mu, who was walking behind Yan Sheng and Xue Jingxue, moved his eyes slightly and couldn't help but sigh.

This was a thrilling night. He was tense and exhausted both physically and mentally, fearing that he would be affected.

Yan Sheng and Xue Jingxu were leisurely and elegant, as if nothing had happened, and were in the mood to eat and practice martial arts.
