Chapter 114 Conversation between Father and Daughter

Shen Yihuan was the first to break into the emperor's bedroom, only to see her father standing in front of the bed. The queen was lying on the old emperor's body, crying sadly, as if she had already passed away.

She walked forward and took a closer look. The old emperor's face had indeed turned black, and bubbles had begun to blow from the corners of his mouth. This was clearly a sign of poisoning!

"Doctor Li, please come and take a look." Shen Yihuan anxiously called Doctor Li over and gave up his seat.

When Doctor Li saw the old emperor's expression, his face immediately became serious and he hurried forward to check.

Time passed by minute by minute. In the room, apart from the Queen's slight sobbing, there was also the occasional urging of Prime Minister Shen, asking Imperial Physician Li to save the old Emperor's life.

Imperial Doctor Li had to respond to Prime Minister Shen while treating the patient, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Shen Yihuan couldn't bear to watch it anymore, and hurriedly stopped the somewhat anxious Shen Xiangguo and said, "Father, don't worry. Doctor Li is trying to save the old emperor now. If you say more now, it will not only be useless, but will also affect Doctor Li's treatment of His Majesty."

But unexpectedly, Shen Xiangguo didn't appreciate it at all, and glared at her: "What do you know, you are just a woman."

Shen Yihuan was speechless. Her father was still as arrogant as before and looked down on women. So today, let him see the methods of women.

She silently took a small step back, said no more, and waited quietly for the result from Doctor Li.

About two cups of tea later, Doctor Li wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and stood up.

"How is it?" Prime Minister Shen was the first to step forward and ask. From his nervous expression, it can be seen that he really cares about the old emperor's life or death.

"Your Majesty has been poisoned. Fortunately, we discovered it early and have just given him the antidote. Only eight out of ten of the toxins in his body have been removed. The remaining two points will have to be slowly excreted through nursing."

When Prime Minister Shen heard that the old emperor's life was saved, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked, "When will he wake up?" This was the issue he cared about most.

"Well, that's not certain. Your Majesty was poisoned too deeply. Although he has been detoxified, his body is still very weak. I can't say when he will wake up."

"Do you have any idea to stimulate the old emperor to wake up immediately?"

"Prime Minister Shen, there is no such medicine in the world." Doctor Li muttered in his heart. Even if there was, he couldn't use it now. He didn't want to be a traitor who aided and abetted the evil.

In the end, Prime Minister Shen had no choice but to wave his hand and let Doctor Li leave.

After that, the queen was asked to stay in the palace to take care of the old emperor.

She didn’t know if it was Shen Yihuan’s illusion, but when she turned to leave, she noticed that the Queen’s eyes were looking at the old Emperor in a strange way, with a hint of murderous intent.

When she wanted to take a closer look, she found that the queen had become gentle and nervous as she fed medicine to the old emperor.

So, she must have seen it wrong just now. But how could the good old emperor suddenly be poisoned?

Who in this palace would attack the old emperor? His father, Prime Minister Shen, is impossible. The queen? Impossible, too. As for motive, there is a little, but she loves the old emperor so much, how could she do it? Could it be that there is someone else in the palace who wants to kill the old emperor?

No matter what, the longer we delay, the greater the risk. General Wang, should you be leading your troops here by now?

Just as he was thinking this, General Wang lived up to everyone's expectations and finally led his soldiers to attack.

At the same time, Prince Chenliu and Prime Minister Shen confronted their reinforcements outside the palace, and naturally a fierce battle ensued.

Suddenly, the sound of killing shook the sky, blood splattered on the city walls, and blood stained the ground. Soon, Prime Minister Shen's reinforcements were controlled by the army of Prince Chenliu.

Are you kidding? The army that the old emperor left to Prince Chenliu had fought on the frontiers before. They were all very brave and had high morale. For them, this was not a battle, but a feast!

The fact that the old emperor entrusted such powerful military horses to his younger brother, Prince Chenliu, shows his trust in his younger brother.

When Prime Minister Shen received the last message, he sat on the ground dejectedly, lamenting that his lifelong pursuit had ultimately ended in failure.

Before he could recover from his grief, Prince Chenliu and General Wang led their troops to surround the emperor's bedroom and were on high alert outside.

Now, the reason why they did not attack was because they were concerned about the emperor, empress, and crown princess in the palace.

Prime Minister Shen knew that the game was over, but he couldn't understand why he lost in the end despite his careful plans.

So, which step went wrong?

"Father, at this point, are you still going to struggle in vain?"

Shen Yihuan came with her back to the light and slowly walked in front of Prime Minister Shen. Her posture was elegant and calm, with the demeanor of a mother of the country.

Shen Xiangguo looked up and saw Shen Yihuan, his least valued daughter. He was surprised to find that in the sunlight, her face seemed to overlap with the woman he loved most in his mind.

A soft murmur like a dream came out: "Qiu'er..." No, she is not Qiu'er, she is the child of him and that bitch, the eldest princess.

He was really crazy, he could actually see Qiu Er's shadow in the child he had with the princess. It seemed that he was really old and confused.

He slowly calmed down and stared into Shen Yihuan's eyes: "It's you, right?"

This question made no sense, but Shen Yihuan understood it.

Shen Yihuan was silent for a while, then suddenly asked, "Father, do you regret it?"

"What is there to regret? This is what that dog emperor deserves. I only regret why I didn't kill that dog emperor in advance. But now he is poisoned and paralyzed. This is his retribution." After saying this, he laughed heartily, feeling very happy.

This shows how much hatred and resentment are in one's heart.

Shen Yihuan closed her eyes. She didn't know much about the past between her father and his ex-wife, but she could guess that the reason her father launched the coup was because the old emperor took away his wife.

Such a dog emperor really doesn't deserve to sit on that chair. Shen Yihuan thought to herself that it was time to help her crown prince succeed to the throne.

"Father, please go back home and live a good life with mother."

"What do you mean?" Shen Xiangguo thought he was dead. Suddenly he heard his daughter say this and was a little bit unbelievable. "Can you still save my life?" But after he said this, he felt that he had overreacted.

Yes, she could come up with such a thorough plan to crush his years of rebellion. Obviously, his daughter, who was not very prominent, had not only reached out to the harem, but also the former dynasty.

"After all, you are the father who gave birth to me and raised me." Shen Yihuan looked at him deeply, his eyes gradually becoming cold, "I can't just stand by and watch you die."

The aura of the superior was suddenly released.

"What a nice thing to say, my lady. It seems that I underestimated you. You actually have such courage. In the future, in this palace, I, your father, can rest assured."
