Emperor Sheng An immediately spoke up, "The Saint is right. I also think that Lin Yiwan might not be the real culprit of the poisoning. Concubine De, please don't make random assumptions!"

Defei was immediately confused. What was going on?

It is understandable that Emperor Sheng An favors Lin Yiwan, after all, he still has the relationship with Zhan Yan.

But what about the saint?

She is obviously Concubine Yun's aunt and represents the Kingdom of Li. Seeing that her niece is dying, she actually says that she believes in Lin Yiwan?

Before she could figure it out, Yun Fei, who had been struggling to survive, finally couldn't bear it anymore and spat out a large mouthful of black blood.

She rolled her eyes and suddenly became silent.

Cui Er broke free and rushed over. She reached out to feel Concubine Yun's breath, then broke down and cried, "My Lady, why didn't you take me with you? How could you die like this?"

Emperor Sheng An hurriedly urged Doctor Lin: "Go and have a look!"

Imperial Physician Lin walked forward with a cold expression and flipped Concubine Yun's eyelids, then shook his head helplessly and said, "She's gone!"

Cui Er screamed, "Your Majesty, you must uphold justice for our princess. You cannot let the real culprit of the poison go free. You must execute Lin Yiwan and let her be buried with our princess!"

Soon after, many maids who served Concubine Yun also knelt on the ground and begged: "Your Majesty, please give our princess an explanation!"

The saint did not expect that Wueryun would die suddenly. She quickly stepped forward and sniffed her breath, only to find that she was really dead.

Cui Er cried and begged: "Saint, you are the princess's aunt. She has always respected you. She cannot let her die in vain!"

The Saint interrupted without hesitation: "Yun'er's death is indeed strange, but I don't believe Lin Yiwan would poison her. As the wife of Marquis Zhan Yi, she should know better than anyone what serious consequences would result if Yun'er died at her hands!"

Cui'er froze up after being scolded. She bit her lips hard, and a hint of uneasiness flashed in her eyes.

Lin Yiwan then said, "Thank you for your insight, Saint. For your sake and for the sake of the relationship between our two countries, I have a thrilling method to bring Concubine Yun back to life!"

Not only was the Saint stunned, but even Cui'er widened her eyes in horror.

She demanded in a hoarse voice, "What do you mean? You've already killed our princess, and you still want to destroy her body? How can you be so vicious?"

Lin Yiwan raised her hand and slapped her hard in the face, causing her face to tilt to the side.

She sternly rebuked him, "Even your Saint has already said that I wasn't the real culprit behind the poisoning, yet you keep blaming me. What are your real intentions?"

Cui'er bit her lips tightly, her eyes filled with anxiety and fear.

Concubine De quickly stepped forward to support her, "Madam Hou, even if you didn't poison her, she's already dead. How can you bring her back to life? You're not a god, do you have any magic elixir?"

Lin Yiwan calmly shook her head: "There really is no magic pill, but there is a way to fight poison with poison, and the emperor has used it before!"

Emperor Sheng An suddenly realized that it was him who was steamed in the steamer last time.

It turns out that this method can even bring the dead back to life?

That would be great!

He spoke quickly, "Yes, I do know. When I was poisoned before, the Marquis used this method to fight poison with poison!"

Defei suddenly felt very curious. Has the emperor already tried it?

Lin Yiwan spoke slowly, "This time is slightly different from last time. The Emperor used the steaming method, but Concubine Yun has to use the roasting method. In other words, she has to place the whole person on a scalding stone slab and roast it, slowly forcing out the poison!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed.

Lin Yiwan is going to roast a living person!

Really, can it really detoxify?

Wouldn't that mean roasting human flesh?

How dare she talk nonsense!

Concubine De asked in disbelief: "Lin Yiwan, do you know what you are saying?"

She nodded: "I know, the emperor knows it very well too!"

Emperor Sheng An spoke without hesitation: "Yes, that's how she cured me of the poison. Look, I'm standing here perfectly fine, aren't I?"

Everyone was silent. After all, the current emperor had already been steamed, so what was the harm in Concubine Yun being roasted?

Soon, a large stone slab was erected in the imperial garden.

A layer of hay was laid underneath it, and a lot of dry firewood was added.

Even though the Saint agreed with Lin Yiwan's words, she couldn't help but feel nervous when she saw this method.

She reached out and tugged at Min Ao's sleeve: "Do you think Yun'er can really be roasted alive?"

Min Ao shook his head: "I'm not sure, but I have to give it a try. I see that Madam Hou is very confident, so it should be possible."

The Saint took a deep breath and said, "It's not just probably possible, but it will definitely work!"

The hay crackled and burned, instantly scorching the stone slabs.

Lin Yiwan turned to look at Cui'er: "Go and carry your master upstairs, while he's still hot, hurry up!"

Cui'er's hands and feet felt a little weak. She had never seen such a scene before. She had never heard of anyone roasting a dead person alive!

Besides, Wueryun was not really dead. She just took a fake death drug and held her breath.

She was still conscious and could hear the noise around her clearly.

She could clearly feel the pain. If this thing was put on her, wouldn't it burn her to death?

She said quickly, "No, this method is too dangerous. What if you can't control the heat and burn our princess's flesh?"

Lin Yiwan laughed suddenly. "Ask the emperor, did I steam him before? Even if your master's skin is delicate, don't you want her to live? What's the big deal if I can save her life, even if she suffers a little?"

Cui'er was speechless after being refuted. She didn't dare to protect Wueryun anymore, otherwise it would arouse other people's suspicion.

She bit her lip hard and put Wueryun on the stone slab with a look of struggle on her face.

The intense pain made Wueryun tense up all of a sudden. She wanted to struggle and escape, but her body was unable to move at all.

She could only endure the fire, and her throat was almost smoking.

The extreme pain caused her to have auditory hallucinations, as if she heard a crackling sound from her skin.

Oh my god, this is so painful.

She was tortured to the point that she would rather die than live!

She really regretted it. Why take the elixir of immortality? Wouldn't it be better to stay in Chunqiu Palace?

How could he come up with the idea of ​​faking his own death and leaving the Sheng Dynasty to make a fortune?

Ah, someone come and save her, she is about to be burned to death, it hurts so much, it really hurts!

Lin Yiwan, stop it now. If you stop roasting me, you will be my ancestor.

My dear ancestors, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me, let me go. I am going to die. This time I am really going to be roasted to death!
