“Yes.” The Sun official kowtowed, then she took the bowl from the other female officer, and finished the whole bowl in front of everyone. A bowl of medicine with this type of function for sure wouldn’t taste good. Mu Mingtang felt sick just by smelling it. The Sun official gagged a few times after drinking it, but she still finished the whole bowl.
They didn’t expect Xie Xuanchen to wake up so quickly, and they didn’t expect Xie Xuanchen to come over in person at night. Didn’t they say that Prince Qiyang was so sick that he was already at his last breath, that he was about to meet the King of Hell anytime now?
The Sun official and the others had another task. They only stayed at the temple all day and didn’t serve in the Yu Lin Hall, so they were very late in knowing about Xie Xuanchen’s condition. When they knew about it, it was already too late.
The emperor didn’t want children to be born in the Qiyang Manor. Xie Xuanchen was already extremely troublesome, so the emperor didn’t want a baby to be born with Xie Xuanchen’s bloodline. Although Xie Xuanchen didn’t seem to be in the best condition to make someone pregnant right now, however, what if?
The emperor didn’t like uncertainties, nor did he dare to gamble on the chances. However, these worries were hard for the emperor to say out loud. Empress Dowager Lu noticed the emperor’s unspeakable thoughts and instructed her female officials to head out of the palace to solve the emperor’s hidden worries.
According to the imperial physician, Xie Xuanchen needed at least three or four days to wake up, so the Sun official brought along the soup medicine with a relaxed heart, and wanted to take advantage of these few days to settle Mu Mingtang. As soon as the row of dazzling and shining needles were laid out, there was no woman who could hold on further, it’s a better choice to just end it quickly with the soup. After all, with Xie Xuanchen’s body, it was impossible for her to have children in her life.
Anyway, the end result would be the same, why would she want to disobey the Emperor Dowager? Also, she could save herself from the pain of her own skin and flesh. But Mu Mingtang chose the needle. The Sun official was slightly surprised and felt that it was a pity, but she wasn’t disappointed. It seems that the young princess Qiyang won’t learn her lesson without some punishments.
If Mu Mingtang cooperated, everything could have gone smoothly. However, she didn’t cooperate, it was just some slight suffering of her body, and then she had to drink the medicine. It would be what the emperor wanted, no matter the process, the end result wouldn’t change.
No one guessed that Xie Xuanchen would actually wake up this soon. It was originally a clever plan to share the emperor’s worries, but now it made the emperor look bad. No matter what the emperor thought, murdering the Prince of Qiyang cannot be associated with his identity. If they couldn’t handle it, being rewarded was of course off the table, but they’ll most probably die in horrific ways.
Every one of them understood this truth, so when Prince Qiyang
