The Female Supporting Character's Counterattack: The Evil King's Doctor Consort's Ent

Chapter 93 Each with their own agenda

As night fell, Gu Fuling and Mo Jinghan found an inn to stay at.

Standing at the window, looking at the Prince's mansion across the street that had been bombed to pieces, Gu Fuling was trembling with anger.

“Jinghan, Mo Jiuxiao is going too far. Why don’t you tell Father?”

Gu Fuling was full of grievances. A whole day had passed, but Mo Jinghan showed no intention of dealing with Mo Jiuxiao at all.

Mo Jinghan frowned and gently pulled Gu Fuling into his arms: "Even if we tell Father, will he be able to control it?"

Gu Fuling lowered her head, her eyes growing colder: "Even if we can't control him, it's good to at least deflate his arrogance."

Mo Jinghan lowered his voice and said in her ear, "I have already made preparations in the palace. If things go well tonight, starting tomorrow, Mo Jiuxiao will probably never be able to recover."

Gu Fuling looked delighted: "Really?"

She didn't ask any more questions, but seeing the determined look in Mo Jinghan's eyes, her heart skipped a beat.

If they can bring down Mo Jiuxiao this time, then the entire Beiyi will be theirs, and no one will be able to stop them.

Just then, a guard from the Third Prince's residence knocked on the door of the inn's private room in a panic: "Your Highness, something has happened in the palace. Someone from the palace reported that this afternoon, for some unknown reason, the Ninth Prince offended the Emperor, and the Emperor ordered him to be imprisoned."

Mo Jinghan's previously calm expression changed drastically: "What did you say?"

Seeing Mo Jinghan's bad expression, the guard lowered his head and dared not speak. Mo Jinghan said coldly, "Since Mo Jiuxiao was already arrested this afternoon, why did you only receive the news now?"

The guard knelt on the ground, looking aggrieved: "His Majesty does not want to publicize this matter. After all, the Ninth Prince has a special status, and he is afraid of causing turmoil in the court. If people find out that His Majesty and the Ninth Prince are at odds, it will be easy for others to sow discord among them."

Mo Jinghan frowned and clenched his fists tightly.

"That's too late!"

Gu Fuling's expression changed upon hearing him utter such a nonsensical remark, and she couldn't help but ask, "Your Highness, what exactly happened?"

Now that things have come to this, Mo Jinghan no longer needs to hide it from Gu Fuling. He was afraid that this matter would be leaked, so he didn't even tell Gu Fuling who was by his side. But he never expected that things would turn out like this.

"Do you remember last night when I arranged for someone to distract Mo Jiuxiao's servant?"

Gu Fuling nodded gently: "I also heard that they stole the Hundred Poison Golden Cicada from the Treasure Pavilion, but what is the connection between these things?"

Mo Jinghan's voice was slightly cold: "That golden cicada can cure all poisons. It is used by the Emperor to save his life. If the golden cicada is suddenly lost and the Emperor is poisoned, and the best doctor in the capital is Gu Zhi, what do you think will happen?"

Gu Fuling's eyes widened instantly, a flicker of emotion passing through them, and her voice trembled slightly: "You...you poisoned Father Emperor?"

Mo Jinghan clenched his fists tightly.

He lowered his voice, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

"That's true, but I never intended to harm Father. The Golden Cicada is in my hands, and in the end, only I can save Father."

Although the plan seemed good, there were too many variables. Gu Fuling said in a low voice, "Even though the Golden Cicada is precious, there's no guarantee that a second one won't appear. What if Gu Zhi's medical skills are really amazing and he can save the Emperor?"

Mo Jinghan gently patted Gu Fuling's shoulder: "Absolutely impossible."

His words were full of confidence, indicating that he had already considered these things.

Gu Fuling felt somewhat worried; she couldn't quite see through Mo Jinghan these days.

The man who was so innocent in her past life had gradually become an ambitious man, and Gu Fuling felt both anticipation and fear.

She looks forward to not having to face pressure alone in the future, but she is afraid that this person will eventually slip out of her control.

"The mistake is that Gu Zhi is currently in the imperial prison. Without the emperor's decree, no one will dare to release her. If she doesn't participate in this charade, then all my efforts will be in vain."

Gu Zhi followed Mo Jiuxiao almost everywhere in the palace. When Mo Jiuxiao was sent to the imperial prison, she naturally followed him.

This has resulted in the situation where, despite having dug a pit, no prey has fallen in.

Inside the palace, the emperor was likely to suffer from the poison soon. Mo Jinghan was anxious, and cold sweat gradually appeared on his forehead.

"Fuling, pack your things quickly and get to the palace as soon as possible!"

Gu Fuling was well aware of the urgency of the situation and had no time to say anything. She boarded the carriage and headed towards the palace overnight.

Sure enough, as soon as the two arrived at the palace gate, they heard the news that the emperor had suddenly fallen into a coma.

Seeing the worried look on Mo Jinghan's face, the eunuch leading the way whispered to comfort him, "The imperial physicians have already gone, so Your Highness need not worry for now."

Mo Jinghan nodded, took Gu Fuling's hand, and stood outside the gate of the Longevity Hall.

The main hall was brightly lit, and the imperial physicians were constantly moving in and out, their hands never idle.

Mo Jinghan grabbed the imperial physician's arm: "How is His Majesty?"

Upon seeing that it was the Third Prince, the imperial physician quickly and cautiously replied, "Your Majesty currently has a persistent high fever and dark purple lips, as if you have been poisoned. We need to verify the specific type of poison."

The current emperor has been poisoned in the palace, causing an uproar throughout the capital.

Although the imperial physicians were all skilled in medicine, they were completely baffled by this strange poison.

Mo Jinghan stood guard at the door, and when he turned his head, he saw Yue Shuyi and Mo Liufeng who had arrived late.

It was the first time the two had walked together, and although they didn't speak, the atmosphere didn't seem too awkward.

Perhaps everyone's attention was focused on the Emperor. Yue Shuyi walked to the door, frowned, and asked, "How is the Emperor?"

The imperial physician's eyes lit up immediately: "Imperial Preceptor, you've finally arrived! The Emperor has been poisoned. Please take a look."

Although the imperial physicians were no pushovers, this poison was simply too cunning.

Yue Shuyi nodded, parted the crowd, and went inside to begin taking the emperor's pulse.

After a while, Yue Shuyi frowned slightly and glanced at Mo Jinghan: "Has His Majesty eaten anything last night? Check everything carefully. His Majesty has been poisoned by snake venom. Now that the Golden Cicada, which can cure all poisons, has been stolen, I will try my best to buy His Majesty time to find a way to detoxify him."

"Thank you, Imperial Preceptor. We will make preparations immediately."

The imperial physicians finally breathed a sigh of relief, as the emperor's condition was quite bad.

Mo Jinghan pretended not to know anything and stood not far away with Gu Fuling. Mo Liufeng pursed his lips and looked at the hall with no expression on his face.

With the Emperor falling ill, almost all the palace staff regarded the Third Prince, Mo Jinghan, as their pillar of support.

Whether it's a small matter or a big one, everything has to get Mo Jinghan's approval. At first, Mo Jinghan was a little unaccustomed to it, but in just one night, it was enough to change Mo Jinghan's mindset.

Everyone hadn't slept all night, but Mo Jinghan showed no signs of fatigue.

He squinted, his fingertips tapping lightly on the table, a calculating glint in his eyes.

Gu Fuling walked to his side: "Your Highness, will Father Emperor get better?"

Mo Jinghan averted his gaze, and seeing someone approaching, replied calmly, "Definitely."

Gu Fuling noticed a strange look in Mo Jinghan's eyes.

He suddenly grabbed her hand and wrote a few words in her palm.

Gu Fuling's heart skipped a beat, and she stood up in a panic. Her face was pale as she rubbed her forehead, looking as if she was about to faint at any moment: "Liufeng, Shuyi, I have a bit of a headache. His Highness still has to stay here to guard, could you take me back?"

A hint of worry flashed across Mo Liufeng's eyes: "Is Your Majesty feeling unwell? Someone come..."

"No need, I just need to rest for a bit."

She was helped outside by her maid.

Mo Liufeng said in a low voice, "In that case, I will personally escort my sister-in-law back."

Gu Fuling walked out of the side hall, but in a deserted path she dismissed all the maids around her.

Her complexion was still somewhat pale. She suddenly stopped and tilted her head slightly: "Liufeng, if Jinghan becomes the emperor, I will bestow upon you the title of Prince Xiaoyao. Are you willing?"

Mo Liufeng's pupils contracted instantly.

His fingers slowly curled up, a look of shock flashing across his eyes: "Fuling, do you know what you're saying?"

Gu Fuling lowered her eyes and said, "If you don't want to, that's fine. Originally, Jinghan told me not to reveal this plan, but now you can see that Father Emperor is in poor health and it's uncertain whether he will wake up this time."

"So, you and your third brother are planning a rebellion?"

Gu Fuling raised her hand and covered Mo Liufeng's mouth and nose. She suddenly looked up at him and smiled faintly: "Liufeng, I know you like me and won't refuse my request, right?"

Mo Liufeng's expression flickered, his gaze trembling as he looked at Gu Fuling's gentle and unchanging face.

Gu Fuling suddenly raised her hand, grabbed his wrist, and with a ripping sound, a corner of his robe was forcibly torn off by the hook hidden in her hand: "Do you agree to help, or do you want to hear me shouting here that you have molested your sister-in-law?"

Gu Fuling was also driven to desperation. At this point, there was no turning back for her and Mo Jinghan.

It's possible that from the moment he poisoned the emperor, Mo Jinghan never intended to wake him up.

Everyone says that the royal family is ruthless. In her past life, she and Mo Jinghan were destroyed by the emperor himself. In this life, taking revenge is not wrong for Gu Fuling.

“Fuling, you… how could you become like this? I would never do something like patricide.”

"Ink Flows Like Wind".

Gu Fuling gritted her teeth in anger, "Right now, you're the only adult prince in the capital. If you just say the word and stand by Jinghan's side, this matter will definitely succeed. Besides, don't you know how Father Emperor got into trouble? It was Mo Jiuxiao..."

Mo Liufeng's eyes darkened.

His eyes were filled with conflicting emotions, but his lips finally parted slightly: "Since it's your wish, then fine, I'll help you."

The world outside is about to change, while the two people in the prison are feasting.
