Soul swap tyrant always wants to have a baby

"That's all right. I went to inspect it myself. General Ling's training method is feasible. If you have any questions, I will allow you to live and eat with the soldiers in the camp outside the capital for half a month."

Who would dare to question this? Although Ling Xuan is young, he is not a pushover. And with his hot-tempered grandfather, they dare not confront him head-on.

Seeing the emperor going against all odds for him, Ling Xuan was deeply moved and secretly vowed to train the 30,000 soldiers in the camp outside the capital into the sharpest knives in the emperor's hands.

"After the Wanshou Festival, I will lead all the civil and military officials to the camp outside the capital to review General Ling's training results. If there are any problems, we will discuss it later."

The emperor has said this, and those military generals who are ready to make a move can only hope that Ling Xuan, this young boy, will not produce any results after being trained. Then they can take the opportunity to seize some power in the camp outside the capital.

After the court session, the place was quiet for a while. I looked at the memorials and saw that it was probably time for Yan Ruju's poison to take effect.

I've been busy these past two days and haven't had time to go there, so I have to go and take a look today.

When he arrived at Ronghua Palace, the palace maids looked visibly haggard. When he entered the bedroom and saw Yan Ruju, who had become thinner with sunken cheeks and lifeless eyes in just a few days, Leng Qing clicked his tongue twice.

Looking back at Zhongli Yuan who had a grim expression on his face, he didn't say anything sarcastic.

This child is quite miserable. He had some trust in the imperial concubine in this palace, but it turned out that the imperial concubine was the one who hurt him the most.

The Prime Minister, who was regarded as a thorn in his side, did everything for Dongxia and its people. However, the Duke Zhenguo, who was regarded as the pillar of Dongxia, colluded with the King of Qi and became a traitor who defeated the entire Dongxia.

You have such a bad eye for people.

Zhongli Yuan, who was following behind, glanced at the imperial concubine lying on the bed like a rag doll, with a mysterious look in his eyes.

In the past few days, she followed Leng Qingyi every day and saw many aspects that people in high positions could not see. Only then did she realize that what she saw was not necessarily the truth.

Now think about it, is the Prime Minister a traitor?

Yes or no.

A lot of power was taken away from him and distributed to his disciples, but if you think about it carefully, everything the prime minister did was for Dongxia and the people.

Those disciples were rare clean officials in the court. When Leng Qingyi inspected the six ministries, he discovered that as long as they were disciples of the prime minister, even if they were not very capable, they would try their best to serve the people.

On the other hand, those officials who usually appear to be honest and upright and do not collude with others allow their own children to live a carefree life in the six ministries.

So what is true?

At this moment, Zhong Liyuan began to doubt the world he had lived in for more than twenty years.

Growing up in the cold palace, the most vicious people he had seen were the eunuchs and palace maids who withheld his food in various ways.

Later, the master appeared and took him to see some of the dark side of the world.

But he did not grow up in the big melting pot of the imperial palace. He had only seen extreme evil and had not seen many two-faced people.

That's why he thought that the Duke of Zhenguo, who had made great military achievements, was a loyal minister to Dongxia, and his daughter was naturally trustworthy.

In his eyes, the prime minister who refused to give in in the officialdom and wanted his daughter to give birth to a prince was a traitor.

Now if you think about it carefully, how could the Duke of Zhenguo have fewer supporters in the court than the Prime Minister?

How could he accomplish anything that the Duke of Zhenguo disagreed with?

Looking at Yan Ruju again, there was no longer the admiration and trust in her eyes as before.

"How have you been feeling these past two days, Concubine?"

Yan Ruju was already numb from the pain, and her empty eyes turned towards the direction of the sound.

When he saw that the person coming was the emperor, a glimmer of light flashed in his empty eyes.

At that moment, there was admiration, resentment and confusion in his eyes.

Leng Qingyi caught the fleeting glance and curled the corners of her mouth slightly. It seemed that she knew why she had become like this.

The secret guards he sent out to investigate the matter have already found out who is behind this incident.

I don’t know if the victim’s life is worse than death, and whether the two of them can still be together without any grudges in the future.

Yan Ruju only glanced at Leng Qingyi and turned her head away, feeling the tearing pain in her body.

Now she could no longer feel the pain in her heart or anywhere else. Her whole body felt numb from the pain as if it had been bitten by thousands of ants.

"The people who set out to look for herbs have sent back news. They just arrived in Runan and ran into a drug dealer who was buying medicinal materials. What a coincidence! They just happened to have the rare Silver Moon Grass. They are now heading back and should be back in Beijing in three to five days."

Yan Ruju's eyes had originally lit up, but when she turned her head and saw Leng Qingyi's teasing eyes, her heart shuddered.

"My Lady, how could it be so coincidental? I sent secret guards to rush 800 miles to Runan in two days, but they searched all the pharmacies in Runan and the places where the Silver Moon Grass appeared, but they couldn't find any trace of it. The Duke of Zhenguo sent people there and found the drug dealer who had the Silver Moon Grass."

Yan Ruju, who was already numb from the pain, was horrified. A hint of fear flashed across her eyes, but reason made her calm down.

"Your Majesty, perhaps it is not my fate to die."

"Tsk, I just feel bad. If the secret guards I sent out could have met the drug dealer there, you would have already taken the antidote and wouldn't have to suffer for so many more days."

Yan Ruju, whose mood had long been on the verge of collapse, broke down immediately, and the resentment in her eyes was no longer concealed.

Leng Qingyi had a chance to play this trick of sowing discord.

The man who said he loved her and was willing to take her away and promised her that they would be together for the rest of their lives a few days ago, now disregards his own safety and uses her to poison the emperor.

He failed to poison her, but he let her get poisoned and didn't give her the antidote immediately, causing her to suffer for so many days. How could she believe in his words of love for her again?

Seeing Yan Rujue wrapped in resentment and loneliness, he was very satisfied.

Those who hurt others will always be hurt.

Anyone who intends to betray her will have to accept the feeling of being betrayed. As long as she remains in power, the emperor will have to bear the consequences tenfold or a hundredfold if he wants to harm her.

She has strength and means.

"My dear concubine, please bear with me for a few more days. I believe the people sent by the Duke of Zhenguo will be able to return to the capital in three to five days. It's a pity that your father's people don't trust my secret guards, otherwise the herbs would be delivered to the palace in a day and a night. I can only bear with you for a few more days."

The chili powder sprinkled on her already broken heart made Yan Ruju's hatred even worse.

The fact that she was able to find the medicinal herbs in Runan by such a coincidence showed that this matter was closely related to her father. Based on her understanding of her father, it was impossible that he did not have the antidote.

But just because you are afraid that the emperor will find out, are you letting her endure so many days of torture that is worse than death?

So who is she?

A tool to pave the way for fathers and brothers?

So everything that person said was also to take advantage of her?

Yan Ruju looked at her husband, the ruler of Dongxia, with hope. He was looking at her tenderly and lovingly, his eyes full of heartache and self-blame.

"I have already sent Doctor Wen to Runan with other herbs. We will strive to obtain the Silver Moon Grass and immediately develop an antidote. My heart breaks every day I see you in pain."
