The Heavens: From Film and Mythology to Conquering Myriad Realms

Xianyang, the Imperial Palace.

Yu Shu looked at Yi Xiaochuan on her phone screen, her eyes gradually softening.

After expressing his love for Yu Shu in the video, Yi Xiaochuan told her about Lu Yao's plan.

After putting her phone away, Yu Shu took out the will that Yu Xiao Kui had passed on, her eyes becoming very determined.

The Emperor Qin's condition is getting worse and worse. He is now unable to get out of bed and is very weak.

Yu Shu, who was the one who poisoned him, was also surprised by the power of the chemotherapy injection. She never expected that Qin Huang's health would deteriorate so quickly after only a few months.

Yu Shu carefully hid the imperial edict on her person and then planned to go to the palace where the Qin Emperor was recuperating to check on the situation.

As the most favored concubine of the Qin Emperor, Yu Shu naturally had access to the heavily guarded sanatorium.

Even as her health gradually weakened, Emperor Qin's affection for Yu Shu did not diminish in the slightest. In fact, because Yu Shu stayed by his side to take care of him, Emperor Qin trusted her even more.

Yu Shu brought Yu Xiao Kui to the Qin Emperor's palace, where Yu Xiao Lü Gong was stopped outside as usual.

He walked alone into the deathly palace and saw several imperial physicians examining the Qin state's illness.

Qin Shi Huang's hands were deathly pale, his face was sallow, and he had lost all his hair; he was extremely weak.

"Your Highness, the imperial physician is treating His Majesty. Please wait a moment."

When a palace eunuch saw Yu Shu, he quickly and quietly walked over and whispered something to her.

Yu Shu nodded and waited outside the jade curtain.

Seeing this, the young eunuch quickly picked up a chair and placed it behind Yu Shu.

Yu Shu waved her hand, indicating that she didn't need to worry about her, and then sat down to wait.

After a long while, the imperial physician inside finally came out.

"Imperial physicians, how is His Majesty's condition?"

Upon seeing this, Yu Shu quickly stood up, went to the imperial physicians, and asked them a question.

"Alas, I have practiced medicine for decades, and I truly had no idea that His Majesty suffered from various ailments."

An elderly imperial physician sighed, his face looking rather grim.

The other imperial physicians also shook their heads, indicating that they were helpless.

"We can only prescribe some medicine to regulate our internal organs, hoping it will be effective."

One of the imperial physicians looked bitter and said helplessly.

"Please do your utmost to save His Majesty. I entrust His Majesty to the imperial physicians."

Yu Shu bowed slightly and spoke sincerely to the imperial physicians in front of her.

The imperial physicians exchanged glances, their faces filled with bitterness.

"We will naturally do our best!"

The imperial physicians bowed and left together.

They had to hurry back to consult medical books and find the cause of the illness, or it would be the end for them.

Being a royal physician in the palace has always been a high-risk profession. If a mistake is made, losing one's head is the least of one's worries; in severe cases, it can even affect one's entire family.

If the Qin Emperor had not been cured and had died, their heads would have rolled when the Qin Emperor died.

"You may all leave. I wish to keep His Majesty company."

Yu Shu gave instructions to the palace maids and eunuchs in the hall, and then walked to the bedside of the Qin Emperor.

Following orders, a group of palace maids and eunuchs emerged from the main hall.

"My beloved concubine! My beloved concubine!"

When the Emperor of Qin saw Yu Shu, he mustered his strength and reached out to call out to her.

Seeing Qin Huang's appearance, Yu Shu suppressed her discomfort and came to the bedside, taking Qin Guo's hand.

"My beloved concubine, am I about to die?"

Qin Huang lay in Yu Shu's arms, his eyes revealing fear of death, and he unconsciously gripped Yu Shu's hand even tighter.

Even Qin Shi Huang, who unified the world, was just like an ordinary person in his fear of death and also cherished the world's splendor.

"Your Majesty will be alright. The imperial physicians are doing their best to treat you. Your Majesty must trust them."

Yu Shu held Qin Huang's hand and gently comforted him.

"I do not wish to die. I have not yet accomplished the great cause of the Qin state. I cannot fall!"

The Emperor Qin's face gradually turned ferocious, and he roared loudly.

As soon as he finished speaking, the Emperor Qin's face turned pale, and a feeling of weakness washed over him.

Soon, the Emperor Qin was exhausted and fell into a deep sleep.

Yu Shu gently patted Qin Huang's shoulder by the bedside to soothe him to sleep.

Seeing that the Emperor Qin was breathing deeply and had fallen asleep, Yu Shu put his hand back under the covers and then got up.

Yu Shu went to the Qin Emperor's robes and, sure enough, found a brocade pouch containing the seal.

Yu Shu gently opened the brocade pouch and took out the Qin Emperor's private seal.

She looked around and, seeing no one in the hall, quickly opened the forged edict and stamped it with the Qin Emperor's private seal.

After carefully checking it and finding no problems, Yu Shu put away the imperial edict and put the seal back in its original position.

After doing all this, Yu Shu's tense mood finally eased.

What she's doing now can be considered a heinous crime of treason, so it's impossible not to be nervous. Fortunately, things are going smoothly.

Yu Shu walked out of the palace, instructed the palace maids and eunuchs to take good care of Empress Qin, and then returned to her own palace.

Upon returning to the palace, Yu Shu dismissed her attendants and picked up her phone to begin recording a video.

After sharing her feelings with Yi Xiaochuan as usual, she briefly explained the matter of the imperial edict.

"Kui'er, you've brought this item to the Chuanggaolou building as usual. Thank you for your trouble."

Yu Shu called Yu Xiao Kui over, handed her the phone, and said softly.

Yu Xiaokui nodded to indicate that she understood, then turned and left, preparing to exit the palace.

Yu Xiaokui had actually guessed some of the secrets of the master she served, but she didn't care.

Her older and younger sisters were both outside the palace, all thanks to Consort Li's kindness. She was willing to do these risky things for Consort Li.

……

Climb to a high building.

Lu Yao looked at the imperial edict in his hand and couldn't help but smile.

"Yu Shu has done a great job this time."

Lu Yao couldn't help but exclaim in admiration to Yi Xiaochuan, who was watching the video.

"We are willing to do anything to reunite with you as soon as possible!"

Yi Xiaochuan put down his phone and looked at Lu Yao with a determined gaze.

After parting ways with Yi Xiaochuan, Lu Yao visited Li Si's residence again.

At this moment, Li Si was flipping through books, a hobby he had maintained for a long time.

"Prime Minister Li is really taking it easy. I wonder if the extra guards at the Li residence were added for me."

Lu Yao jumped down from the roof beam, and his soft laughter startled Li Si.

"You misunderstand, sir. I was merely protecting my family's safety."

Li Si's lips twitched, and he forced an explanation.

"Consort Li has done what she promised you. I hope Prime Minister Li will not let us down."

Lu Yao didn't care about Li Si's words, and no matter how many guards he arranged, they couldn't stop him. He simply threw the forged imperial edict at him.

Li Si's pupils constricted slightly upon receiving the imperial edict, surprised that Consort Li had acted so swiftly.

At the same time, he was extremely excited, because his era as Li Si was about to begin, and he would surely leave a significant mark on history.

"The Emperor's condition is expected to worsen within the next few months. I hope Prime Minister Li will make preparations as soon as possible."

After Lu Yao finished speaking, he turned and left without the slightest hesitation.

"I, Li Si, will surely be remembered for all time!"

Li Si looked at the imperial edict in his hand, his eyes burning with fierce anger.
