Pampering the outside room alone? I entered the East Palace to pass on the sick and weak prince

Chapter 392 Bottom Line

Murong Heng carried Emperor Renjing to the soft couch beside him.

After checking his pulse, Shen Ruoxi pinched his middle finger.

"He is in a state of intense heat, convulsions and coma. Judging from his pulse, my father has been restless recently and his body has suffered serious losses. After waking up this time, his health will be much worse than before."

Shen Ruoxi took some first aid measures.

Soon, Emperor Renjing opened his eyes leisurely.

The cloudy eyes seemed to have no focus, staring blankly at Murong Heng in front of him.

Then he said in a trembling voice.

"Wan'er...my Wan'er is no longer here..."

Wang Defu said tremblingly.

"Your Majesty, the late Queen has been gone for a long time. Are you talking about Concubine Shu?"

"Concubine Shu... Concubine Shu is Wan'er. She came back to see me."

Emperor Renjing slowly raised his hand and shed two lines of tears in his eyes.

Then, he closed his eyes and completely passed out.

*

Murong Yao stood in his courtyard, looking at the floating clouds on the horizon.

The eyes on Ruyu's face were deep and solemn.

It wasn't until the sound of footsteps came from outside the courtyard that he slowly turned his head.

"Yao'er."

Su Sheng, wearing a black python suit, stepped in.

"uncle."

"You did it?"

Su Sheng walked up to him and said directly: "Did you and Tuoba Ye collude with each other to cause the current situation?"

The smile on Murong Yao's face faded.

He met Su Sheng's questioning gaze with a calm expression.

"it's me."

"You are so confused!"

Su Sheng grabbed him by the collar and pulled him in front of him.

There was a hint of anger in his eyes.

"You are treasonous!"

"I just want to use Tuoba Ye. If things go as I planned, when I successfully ascend the throne, I will personally lead my troops to conquer Canglan Kingdom!"

Murong Yao pulled his hand away: "Since ancient times, how many people have had clean hands in the fight for imperial power? Including my father, do you dare to say that he didn't use some despicable means?"

"You are right, but there are some things that are the bottom line and cannot be done!"

"That's my uncle's bottom line, not mine!"

Murong Yao's expression was cold: "I just knew that uncle would object, so I didn't tell you. Now that the matter is a foregone conclusion, what will uncle do? Be disappointed in me and support the prince?"

"You know, the thought never occurred to me."

There was a complicated expression on Su Sheng's handsome face.

He suppressed the anger in his heart.

"What are you going to do next? Since I can think of you, Murong Ting will also think of this. If we really carry out a thorough investigation and the evidence is conclusive, you will be convicted of death. What will happen then? Counterattack?"

As long as Hanyang King Lenghong is completely on their side, their chances of winning in the struggle for imperial power will be greatly increased.

But Leng Hong was only loyal to the emperor. Even if Leng Ruqing married Murong Yao, he could not make Leng Hong switch sides.

Murong Yao looked calm.

"Since I have done this, I will do it absolutely, and my father will not be able to find any fatal evidence."

"What if he thinks it's you?"

"Will not."

Murong Yao sneered: "My father is suspicious by nature and overly cautious when things happen, so if he can't find conclusive evidence, he will probably just maintain the status quo and it won't have a big impact on me."

Su Sheng couldn't help but look at him a few more times.

Murong Yao has indeed grown up and is able to understand people's hearts and take advantage of them.

but……

But there was something he couldn't see through.

"The Crown Prince and Shen Ruoxi have returned. I heard that Murong Heng sent people to capture Tuoba Ye. If Tuoba Ye is really captured and tells what happened to you, there will be so-called conclusive evidence."

"So I'm waiting."

Murong Yao clenched his fingers: "If you are really forced into a desperate situation, you will rebel."

Who will win, we don’t know yet!

"His Royal Highness Prince Rui!"

Fei Shao hurriedly walked into the courtyard and raised his hand to him: "Your Highness, the people sent by the prince to capture Tuoba Ye are back."

"how?"

"We haven't found any. Almost all of Tuoba Ye's men were wiped out. Some of them were captured but we don't know the specific facts. They don't have much value for interrogation."

"Ah."

Murong Yao narrowed his eyes, with a happy expression on his face.

"It seems that God is on my side this time!"

He waved his sleeves: "Let's go and see Father. I heard that something happened in the backyard. He is over there."

Feishao stopped him.

"Your Highness...there is one more thing."

"what happened?"

"The news has just come that Concubine Shu died suddenly. The Emperor is overly sad and is now in poor health. All matters are decided by the Crown Prince."

Fei Shaowei said: "The prince said... Tuoba Ye escaped from the back part of the paddock. You are responsible and you must be held accountable. For now, you will stay in your courtyard and cannot go anywhere."

Murong Yao frowned.

"The prince means to imprison me?"

"Your Highness, if the emperor is not in good health, the prince will naturally be in charge of the overall situation. You should bear with it for a while."

"This king knows."

Murong Yao snorted coldly and quickly calmed down: "It seems that the prince has indeed found no evidence that I have a relationship with Tuoba Ye, otherwise it would be more than just imprisoning me."

In this case, he doesn't need to worry too much.

"Go and find out what's going on with your father's health."

"Yes."

After Fei Shao left, Su Sheng turned his head to look at Murong Yao and suddenly reached out to him.

"return."

"What else?"

"Portrait of the late Queen."

The Su family had a portrait of the late empress before she left the court, which had been kept in the attic, but it suddenly disappeared.

He was a little confused at first, but now he figured it out.

It should be Murong Yao who secretly gave the portrait to Tuoba Ye. Otherwise, how would Tuoba Ye know what Su Waner looked like when she was young and find that Lian'er?

Murong Yao snorted lightly.

"I will return it to my uncle when I get back, but I don't understand. If my uncle cares about the late queen, how can he be willing to do this to the prince?"

"It's not me who cares, it's your mother who cares."

"I see."

Murong Yao smiled.

……

Emperor Renjing was not in good spirits.

He was in a coma and woke up twice, still unconscious.

Murong Heng dealt with the remaining mess, then decisively issued the order and rushed back to the capital overnight.

It was not until the afternoon of the next day that we returned to the imperial city.

Many imperial doctors came over in a hurry and after giving Emperor Renjing consultation and medicine, he finally woke up slowly and his spirits improved somewhat.

"Father."

Murong Heng stood in front of the bed, wearing a black brocade embroidered with gold, with concern in his eyes.

"Heng'er..."

Emperor Renjing propped himself up with his hands and wanted to get up.

Wang Defu immediately went over to help him up and stuffed a pillow behind him.

Emperor Renjing asked as soon as he sat up.

"How is Concubine Shu?"
