Traveling through the Poisonous Concubine

"Your Majesty! I have tried my best, but the Second Prince was too badly injured. The sword hit his heart directly and he died instantly. Even if I had the ability to see through heaven and earth, I could not pull him back from the gates of hell!" Yun Yuxi said with a gloomy face. She bit her lips tightly, and a subtle complex emotion flashed in her eyes.

Hearing this, the princes present were all shocked. They all looked at Yun Yuxi. Seeing her expression, the big stone that had been hanging high in their hearts finally fell. Especially the third prince, he pretended to be heartbroken on the surface, but in fact he was already ecstatic in his heart. However, due to excessive tension and excitement, his back was already soaked with sweat.

At this moment, Emperor Suwen seemed to have suddenly aged by ten years. His body was trembling slightly, and he shouted in a choked voice: "Quick! Investigate it for me! Who is so bold as to assassinate me in my magnificent palace? You must investigate it thoroughly for me!" As he spoke, he staggered and his body swayed. His performance was very realistic, and he looked like a father who had lost his beloved son.

Seeing this scene, Yun Yuxi couldn't help but curse in her heart: "Hmph! This dog emperor is really good at acting. The Oscars owe him a little golden man!" However, her face still maintained an expression of grief and helplessness.

At this time, the Queen Mother spoke: "Emperor, do you have any clues at the moment? What kind of villain dared to commit such a heinous crime in the palace? Once I find out, I will never forgive him and will make him wish he were dead!"

On the other hand, although the Third Prince was extremely delighted, he still tried to remain calm and agreed, "Yes, father, these murderers must be severely punished to comfort my second brother's spirit in heaven!" Having said that, he was secretly praying that nothing would happen to the other two competitors, otherwise it would be difficult for him to monopolize power.

Just at this moment, an imperial physician came hurriedly to report: "Your Majesty, the Queen has woken up, but her condition is very bad. Please go and visit her as soon as possible."

"Yun Yuxi, please accompany me to take a look. The Queen has lost her beloved son and I'm afraid she will be too sad. Yun Yuxi, please prescribe some tranquilizers for her." Emperor Su Wen walked in front, his slightly hunched back made people feel a little distressed.

"Your Majesty, all this is fake, right? Our son is not dead, right?" The Queen's eyes were swollen like peaches, and she threw herself into Emperor Suwen's arms and cried loudly.

"Zhen'er, our son is fine, but your pretending son is in trouble. Do you understand what I mean?" Emperor Suwen whispered to the empress in his arms. Seeing the empress's haggard appearance, Emperor Suwen couldn't help but told her the whole story.

The Queen looked at Yun Yuxi in disbelief, only to see Yun Yuxi nodded slightly, but the Queen was still shedding tears, not knowing whether she was crying tears of joy or the feeling of surviving a calamity.

"Yun Yuxi, please! Please go and see my son again, he absolutely can't be gone like this! He still has a bright future waiting for him! The emperor clearly said that as long as he can get better, he will let Mingxuan study government affairs with him! Who is it? Who is so cruel to kill my precious son..." The queen tightly grasped Yun Yuxi's arm, shaking her while begging with tears in her eyes. Her acting skills were simply superb and perfect, and anyone who saw it would be moved.

However, facing the queen's sincere performance, Yun Yuxi just glanced at her lightly, and then rolled her eyes mercilessly. She raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a mocking smile: "Queen, you should mourn and take care of yourself! After all, if anything happens to you, the harem will be in chaos! Besides, if you keep making trouble like this, even if the second prince is really in the underworld, I'm afraid he won't be able to rest in peace, right?" These words were like a sharp sword, piercing the queen's heart, making the queen so angry that her face turned blue.

"Get out! All of you, get out of here! I don't want to see you heartless people for even a moment! My son is not dead at all, and you are all talking nonsense here, cursing my son! Someone, come! Catch them all for me!" The queen roared in anger, and her voice echoed throughout the palace.

But Yun Yuxi didn't care at all at this time. She just adjusted her sleeves slowly and then turned away gracefully. Seeing this, Emperor Su Wen followed closely.

The two of them walked out of the room in a swaggering and dignified manner. Before leaving, Yun Yuxi turned around and said a cold word to the furious queen in the room:

"Since Her Majesty the Queen is so emotional right now, we will take our leave first. However, in my opinion, Her Majesty the Queen should rest for a while to avoid getting sick from anger. During this period, Her Majesty the Queen should rest and no one is allowed to disturb her~"

After saying this, Yun Yuxi and Emperor Su Wen looked at each other and smiled, then walked away without looking back.

When the queen learned that the second prince was fine, had been transferred to a place to recuperate, and that the emperor had sent people to protect him, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, drank some sedatives, and fell into a deep sleep.

"Your Majesty, Yu'er has been tired for a long time, and it's almost dawn. I will take her to our mother's palace to rest for a while. We will leave the palace at dawn. You have to be careful about the assassins, my brother. Maybe the next assassination will be you," Yan Wuque said with an angry face.

"Go, I want some quiet time. You all go down. Come to the morning court tomorrow. I have something to announce." After saying this, Emperor Suwen left with the help of the eunuch Liu.

The princes looked at each other, no one understood what was going on. However, the Third Prince walked hurriedly towards Concubine Rong's bedroom.

The Fourth Prince also went to discuss with his mother, but the Fifth Prince was left alone.

"Grandma Empress, if you don't mind, my grandson would like to stay at your place for a while. My mother passed away early and there is no place for me in the palace. Please take me in, Grandma Empress."

"You kid, why are you talking nonsense? Why don't you come and push me? Can't you see that your aunt is tired? You don't have any vision at all," Yan Wuque said unhappily.

The Queen Mother nodded, and the Fifth Prince was overjoyed. He had not expected that his uncle would actually raise the price for him. He hurriedly stepped forward, pushing Yan Wuque and following the Queen Mother's footsteps towards the Cining Palace.
