The enchanting beauty is pregnant, and the heirless male protagonist is overjoyed!

The Sixth Prince felt a sharp pain in his chest, a sweet and fishy taste emerged in his throat, and blood flowed down the corners of his mouth. He leaned forward regardless, and the tip of the knife stabbed deeper.

His injuries worsened and blood spurted out of his mouth.

Pei Qinyu frowned and pulled the knife back. The Sixth Prince's current appearance was completely different from when he grew up following him and was called "Crown Prince Brother" by his father.

After returning from suppressing bandits in Jiangnan, he found that he had completely changed.

That's not right, it should be said that his sixth brother finally released his true nature and bared his fangs. Deep in his eyes, there was disappointment, regret, and confusion.

Aren’t he and his mother good enough to him?

Why did he have such inappropriate thoughts?

These thoughts and questions flashed through his mind, and in reality, only a moment had passed. Pei Qinyu said, "You don't want to live anymore? I told you that as long as you hand over the antidote, you can live."

"In exchange, I will let the Crown Princess give you an antidote to remove the poison in your body."

"Antidote?"

The Sixth Prince murmured, looking up and laughing wantonly, "Hahahaha! I threw the real antidote into the moat a long time ago. Brother Crown Prince, have someone go find it!"

Everyone's face changed drastically. The hall was dead silent and no one dared to speak.

The Sixth Prince continued speaking, his voice extremely clear: "Wouldn't it be good for the Crown Prince to die in Jiangnan? You were injured and jumped into the sea but didn't die. I offered a bounty of 100,000 taels on the black market to kill you, but you still didn't die."

"If you don't come back, everyone will support me, and I can legitimately become the crown prince and the next emperor."

"Why did you come back? Why did you come back!?"

His eyes widened as he shouted the last words. The echo echoed in the hall and everyone could hear it clearly.

The queen was so angry that she wanted to scold him.

The Sixth Prince suddenly pounced forward, and the knife in Pei Qinyu's hand pierced his heart. She fell silent.

Gu Yunyan was surprised that the Sixth Prince didn't want to live. Yes, he probably couldn't be the emperor, holding power while awake and sleeping on the lap of a beauty while drunk.

It is better to die quickly than to live in agony.

Pei Qinyu was only stunned for a moment by the news revealed by the Sixth Prince before his death, and then ordered in an orderly manner: "Dispose of the Sixth Prince's body, and confiscate the property and exterminate the clan of those who participated in the rebellion tonight."

Wu Liang led his men to drag away the sixth prince's body and left the palace to search his property.

Looking at the emperor who was still unconscious on the bed, the imperial hospital judge frowned and whispered: "There is no antidote. The emperor can only sleep for another half a month."

What he meant was self-evident.

Without an antidote, the emperor would surely die in half a month. Just like the name of the poison, his soul would return to the underworld.

Pei Qinyu and the Queen looked solemn.

"Is there really no solution?" the Queen asked. "We can just put it off until we post a royal decree and ask famous doctors from all over the world to come to the palace to help the Emperor detoxify. Maybe that will help."

The Imperial Medical Bureau could not guarantee a verdict, so it made the pros and cons clear.

"Even with the combined efforts of all the imperial doctors, we can only extend the period from half a month to two months. Moreover, if the poison is really removed, the emperor's health will be much worse than before. He will not be able to work hard to handle government affairs in the future and needs to be taken care of all the time."

"That's all we can do." The Queen sighed.

But in his heart, he thought that the prince was already past the age of coming of age and would be thirty years old in a few years. According to the emperor's physical condition before he was poisoned, he could still reign for at least ten or twenty years.

By then, the prince will become his enemy, and it is possible that father and son will go to war.

There are only a few princes in history books who were able to successfully ascend the throne. It is better this way, so as to prevent the situation from developing to an irreversible point.

Wedding night.

It was a life full of ups and downs and thrilling.

Gu Yunyan returned to the East Palace to rest, but Pei Qinyu could only deal with state affairs without sleep and comfort the ministers who were frightened that night.

Deal with these draining things.

By the time he returned to the East Palace after the New Year holiday, three days and three nights had passed, and there was no sign of Gu Yunyan anywhere inside or outside the main hall.

He frowned, grabbed Liu Qi who was passing by and asked, "Where is your Crown Princess?"

She was pregnant, but she didn't rest in the house at noon. Where did she go to play? She would definitely take a nap at noon before.

Liu Qi was holding a bundle in his arms and subconsciously hid it behind him.

Hidden half thought that this was too deliberate and too suspicious, so he held the bag and said nonchalantly: "Your Highness, the Crown Princess is in the Imperial Hospital, watching the group of imperial doctors develop an antidote for the Emperor."

"I see."

Pei Qinyu's cold eyes softened in an instant, "I have been busy these days and have not been able to care for my father. I will go to the Imperial Hospital to see how they are doing and bring the Crown Princess back."

Damn it! Liu Qi lowered his head to hide his expression, secretly complaining in his heart.

His expression was not well hidden, and coupled with his previous act of hiding the bag, Pei Qinyu narrowed her eyes. No, the master and servant were hiding something from him.

Thinking of this, he quickened his pace.

As I stepped into the gate of the Imperial Hospital, I could faintly hear the sound of an argument coming from inside the house, involving both men and women.

There is no need to say who the woman is, it is none other than Gu Yunyan.

Liu Qi's heart beat in her throat, and she opened her mouth to scream. Pei Qinyu signaled with her eyes, and Liu Da suddenly covered Liu Qi's mouth from behind.

Liu Qi: “!!”

Boss, you are no longer the good brother and village chief of Koi Village!

Liu Da understood the meaning of his eyes, and said in a low voice without any guilt: "Xiao Qi, we are now each serving our own masters. You follow the Crown Princess, and I follow the Crown Prince. There is no other way."

"Give me the bag in Liu Qi's hand, and you just wait outside." Pei Qinyu ordered.

Liu Da did as he was told, dragged the bundle away, and handed it to the prince respectfully.

"no!"

"It's too risky! These are all highly poisonous. If the emperor eats them, the poison of Bie Hun Guixi will not be cured yet, and he will be poisoned by other poisons."

The imperial physicians were used to prescribing prescriptions for Taifang, so how could they dare to be as fearless as the Crown Princess?

She had only read a few medical books, memorized some pharmacology, and made a facial cream that was very effective, and then she started...well, they admitted that the Crown Princess was extremely talented.

But how long has she been self-taught?

How could Gu Yunyan not know what these imperial doctors were thinking? She had not spent so many years in so many worlds in vain, and she was too familiar with this group of imperial doctors.

"You don't have to take responsibility. I will take responsibility for any problems that arise."

"I have already asked Liu Qi to get the medicine from the East Palace Pharmacy. You all go aside and I will make the antidote myself."

She had her back to the door, while the imperial doctors were facing the door.

When they saw the Crown Prince, the imperial doctors wanted to bow, but the Crown Prince shook his head. They could only listen to the Crown Princess in silence.

"...fighting poison with poison is the fastest way to detoxify..."

Listening to her endless and logical talk, Pei Qinyu's brows furrowed deeper and deeper. He looked down at the bundle in his hand and untied the knot on it.

After opening it, it was filled with packets of medicine.
