Drunk Bamboo

Chapter 359 Poisoned Wine

The emperor just stared at her without responding.

Xie Yuzhu took a step forward, his face fearless, as if he was fearless before bravely going to his death.

"I still remember clearly what Prince Jing said in the Golden Hall. He said that if it was the crown prince who sat on the throne, he would not force the emperor to abdicate. Perhaps if any of them had ascended the throne, this tragedy would not have happened."

"Your suspicion, your doubt, your narrow-mindedness, your cowardice, your fear... all of these are the real you, Your Majesty."

"You can't tolerate those who are better than you, and you can't stand those who are more talented than you, but you always talk about the righteousness of the country."

Xie Yuzhu's voice became louder and louder, and more and more powerful as he spoke.

The voice was resounding, echoing in the empty hall.

One after another, the hammer struck the emperor's chest.

Xie Yuzhu looked up at the emperor with cold eyes.

"It was you who caused their rebellion. You forced them to rebel!"

"No, they are not rebelling. They just don't want to be killed by you. They are saving themselves and want to stay alive!"

At this moment, she somewhat understood Prince Jing's crazy behavior in the Golden Stage Palace.

He killed disloyal officials like Feng Xiu without blinking an eye. He kept all the officials alive and captured people from the harem just to humiliate the emperor in front of them.

Does he really want the throne?

When he jumped off the palace wall, he did not have a trace of attachment. He looked at the sky and at Zhongdu City, but he did not even look at the dragon throne inside the palace wall.

The emperor finally couldn't stand it anymore.

His face turned red.

"Shut up! Shut up!"

He Qing, who was standing at the door, trembled in fear.

Xie Yuzhu looked calm. She had seen many crazy people, so why would she be afraid of him?

He's about to die, and yet you still want to spoil him?

dream!

Why wasn’t he mad at Prince Jing to death?

Xie Yuzhu really hoped that she could make him faint from anger.

Give her hope of life.

Unfortunately, the emperor has a very tough life.

Taking a breath, Xie Yuzhu regrouped.

"Your Majesty, in order to check and balance the Crown Prince, you favored King Wen. In order to prevent future hidden dangers, you are protecting the Crown Prince."

"But what about Hua Qinfeng? When will you love him? He just repelled the You Kingdom army and protected the western border, but you were in the palace, trying to kill his princess. If he knew, how would you let him live?"

Xie Yuzhu originally wanted to impress the emperor, but as she spoke she became excited.

When she thought of Hua Qinfeng, her tears instantly flowed.

It wasn't a loss for her to live her life again and experience all this.

Maybe I can go back after I die.

But Hua Qinfeng, how can you live alone in this world?

What is he going to do?

Will he survive?

Or will he come after her?

She is not reconciled.

I'm unwilling to die like this.

I can't bear to see such a good person like Hua Qinfeng left alone in this world.

Xie Yuzhu looked at the emperor almost beggingly, his eyes blurred and his voice choked.

"Why don't you love and care for him? He defended Rao Country for you, and he is also your son!"

"If you kill me, what will you do to him?"

"What should he do..."

The emperor's eyes flickered.

"I feel so guilty towards Feng'er..."

Kindness is like a passing cloud, fleeting.

He immediately stared at Xie Yuzhu with vigilance, "Okay, you are really amazing. You used Feng'er to make me soft-hearted and let you go!"

"It's already this time, and you're still thinking about it."

Xie Yuzhu had no expectations of him and wiped away her tears.

"You are so pathetic."

The emperor frowned, "It is not your turn as a junior to teach me a lesson."

"She is just a woman. Feng'er will forget about it after a while. I will give him the supreme status and honor, and let him assist the crown prince well."

The emperor gave He Qing a look. He Qing's face turned pale. After hesitating for a moment, he quietly retreated.

"With your current appearance, you still want to control Hua Qinfeng? Control the prince?" Xie Yuzhu sneered, "How ridiculous! On the palace wall, the soldiers didn't even listen to you. Do you think the prince will listen to you now?"

The emperor was not annoyed. "At least I have lived longer than you. If you want to talk, just say it. You don't need to understand what I did, and I don't need to explain it to you."

When He Qing appeared again, he was holding three things in his hands.

"Poisoned wine, white silk, or a dagger. Choose one and I will leave your body intact."

Xie Yuzhu sneered.

The plots in the book happened to me, which was ridiculous.

He Qing raised his eyes carefully and gave Xie Yuzhu a quick look.

Xie Yuzhu was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted and scanned them one by one.

"I'm afraid of pain and the sight of blood."

His finger hovered over the poisoned wine.

"Will it be painful to drink the poison? Will it be ugly after death?"

He Qing replied, "Once it enters the body, it will kill the person immediately. There is no cure. After death, the corners of the mouth will be bright red, which is very sad and beautiful."

He smiled with relief, "Thank you."

Xie Yuzhu picked up the wine glass and drank it all.

"Snapped--"

The wine glass fell to the ground with a loud and crisp sound.

The body then floated down.

"No!"

"princess!"

Zhang Xinghe flew into the hall and caught Xie Yuzhu.

Hua Qinyu asked loudly: "What poison? What poison did you give her to drink?"

He Qing: "Crane, red crane crown..."

Blood flowed from the corner of Xie Yuzhu's mouth and she held Zhang Xinghe's hand tightly.

"Don't... tell him... I'm going... to collect herbs..."

"You can't be in any danger! He won't survive!"

Zhang Xinghe tried his best to wipe the blood off her face, but blood kept flowing out of her mouth and could not be wiped clean.

Is it late? Is it him who is late?

"Take her to find Qi Fengyu quickly. Take her there as quickly as possible with Qinggong!"

Hua Qinyu brought Zhang Xinghe back to his senses with a stern voice.

He picked up Xie Yuzhu and jumped up.

The emperor smiled coldly, "No one can save her."

Hua Qinyu looked at the emperor on the dragon throne in disbelief.

"Her husband is the Third Brother, the God of War, King Feng, who protects the Western Frontier. Her clansmen are the Xie clan, who sent food for the people of Zhongdu to eat during the winter."

"During the plague, she stayed up all night treating patients in the clinic. She was so tired that she fainted, and when she woke up, she continued to see patients."

"When Lou Shan was assassinated, she was the one who stood in front of me."

"My third brother was reckless and willful. It was because of her patient guidance that he gradually became the steady man he is now."

Every time Hua Qinyu said this, his heart was bleeding.

"Father, why can't you tolerate her? Why her? Is she a threat to your throne, or can she cause a huge wave?"

The emperor was furious. "You all come to question me for such a woman? I am fighting for your throne and your future."

Hua Qinyu's eyes were full of disappointment.

"The throne..."

"She doesn't even care about the throne you hold tightly in your hands."

"You know how happy I was when I asked her to stay in Zhongdu with her third brother a few days ago and she said she would consider it."

The emperor stared in bewilderment, "What a mess! Is this what an emperor should do?"

Hua Qinyu shook his head helplessly, a tear in the corner of his eye, "Father, you never know what we really want."

"From now on, I just want to do things my way. I won't listen to my father's words anymore."

He turned around, his back straight.

"I will replace the people in Qingning Palace with a group of more capable people to serve my father."

"I wish you good health and a long life."

This was his last visit to Qingning Palace.

"Bam—"

The door is closed.

The emperor sat alone on the dragon throne, with confusion in his eyes.

Maybe he will never figure it out until he dies.
