Lu Chen had never seen Leng Yiyao smile like this.
That kind of smile that is slightly compassionate, but behind it is full of ridicule!
It seemed that in just a moment, he could be nailed to this emperor's exclusive bed.
He suddenly felt uncomfortable and had difficulty breathing.
Just like a few months ago, he stood at the bedside of his father.
So what if the power comes
Facing everything in front of me, there is no other choice but to be helpless!
The father who was dying was like this, and now, he is lying on the bed like this.
If she told the truth, in this world, she might really tell it one day. However, the only person she could tell this to was Hemo. As for the real murderer of "Leng Yiyao"... She smiled and changed the subject, which led to the source of the story that she had always cared about. "I've always been curious about that incident. Why do you think living sacrifices are really useful?"
The empire's technology was so advanced, but something was wrong in his mind that he secretly kidnapped so many boys and girls to sacrifice.
Lu Chen was looking at her with burning eyes, longing for the truth, but at this moment, when he heard her change the subject, he completely understood that she would never tell him the answer to this question, maybe forever.
yes… .
Living sacrifice…
In the beginning, the reason why they had communication was not a good one.
Therefore, this is why, even though he vaguely guessed that she was the real murderer of Lu Ming, he never mentioned a word about it.
Say, it’s a dead end!
Not to mention, he might still miss her a little bit.
Maybe she also cares about him
After all, without her, perhaps, he would have been conspired by his two uncles to end up dead without any body parts.
Therefore, even if she had caused him to be unexplained as a murderer by the people across the country, he had not exposed her.
Now, when I think about it, what can we trace back to those original origins
Lu Chen threw his jar and threw his head back. He grabbed the corner of the bed with his right hand and suppressed the cough in his throat. His eyes slowly became bloodshot. "Those are no longer important..."
How could he tell her that back then, when faced with Lu Ming's excellence in everything, the people of the entire empire were whispering secretly that His Majesty the Emperor's heart was so biased that he would allow a useless person like him to be the first heir to the throne.
He is not stupid! But he also understood that in terms of qualifications, he was not as good as Lu Ming.
Therefore, he believes in ghosts, gods, sacrifices, and everything that makes him feel that he can compare to Lu Ming.
As long as it's possible, why not try
If the capture of eighty-one boys and girls can really prevent the oil resources from being exhausted, then he will be a hero to millions of people. Who in the entire country would look down on him
Regardless of whether he was driven by interests or had ghosts in his heart, how could he admit his dark and ugly thoughts in front of her
Leng Yiyao looked at Lu Chen's empty and evasive eyes, and suddenly felt bored.
He was the one who started the conversation, but he shut up in advance.
"Knock knock" -
At this moment, there were two gentle knocks on the door. As if fearing to disturb the conversation inside, the volume was kept very low, "Your Majesty, the medicine is ready. The Queen Mother asked me to bring it in for you." A respectful and slightly old voice came from outside. Lu Chen recognized it as his wet nurse's voice.
Mother was afraid that she had just been humiliated by Leng Yiyao and didn't even want to see him again, so she simply avoided her. Instead, they sent someone to force him to drink medicine.
A trace of helplessness and exhaustion flashed across his brows. Even though he didn't fully open his eyes just now, he actually heard every word Leng Yiyao said clearly from beginning to end.
Indeed, his poisoning was definitely not planned by M.
On the contrary, if he really wanted the throne, he would never be able to successfully succeed to the throne.
However, her mother has been competing for favors for most of her life, but political acumen is too far away from her.
He thought of something and suddenly started coughing desperately. This time, the cough was even worse than when the imperial doctor and experts had just consulted, as if all the internal organs had been completely displaced!
People outside the door don’t dare to delay any longer!
He glanced pleadingly at the guarding royal guard. The latter was also afraid that Lu Chen would cough up something bad, so he quickly opened the palace door. After all, this old man was also sent by the Queen Mother, and Your Majesty would never refute this favor.
Sure enough, when Lu Chen saw the dark medicine bowl handed to him, he just frowned slightly. Without saying much, he tried his best to sit up.
The wet nurse was so frightened that her hands and feet trembled, and she felt that she had lost her mind and was delivering the medicine like this.
His eyes were frantically looking for something on the bedside table, but he found that there was no spoon or straw. He was sweating profusely while listening to Lu Chen's coughing that became more and more rapid, and his whole body turned pale.
Leng Yiyao slowly closed her eyes. It seemed that she couldn't find out the reason tonight...
As for this poison...
Looking at the way Lu Chen was coughing, it was impossible to think of it in three to five days.
"I'm leaving first, you can recuperate." Unable to tell whether it was helplessness or disappointment, Leng Yiyao stood up and looked to the north. The war between the two countries is about to begin, and Lu Chen's body... It is really…
Unexpectedly, as soon as she moved, Lu Chen seemed to suddenly have unlimited strength. He stood up and suddenly grasped her right wrist tightly.
He used so much force that his fingers almost immediately left red marks on that delicate spot.
Leng Yiyao did not exclaim, but lowered her head and stared at him quietly.
Lu Chen was still coughing and panting, but he had tried his best to calm this embarrassing situation.
But she suddenly thought of a question - since they had not always been in peace and harmony before, why did he choose to suddenly reveal the truth at this time
"What exactly do you want to say?"
For the first time, Leng Yiyao couldn't see through his thoughts.
This situation is rare for her!
After all, Lu Chen was always like Bai Shui in front of her, and she could see through it at a glance. Since being poisoned, he has been acting in the opposite direction, and his words and deeds are a bit strange.
Lu Chen didn't answer her, but finally showed a sad smile on his face.
He opened his mouth, wanting to say something.
But he discovered that his throat was not his, and neither his heart nor his breathing were his.
The exploding headache was like a blow to the face, suffocating his whole body.
The next moment, everything suddenly went dark. His right hand no longer had the strength to hold her wrist, and he hung it loosely on the edge of the bed.
At the last moment when he lost his mind, he almost sighed in despair.
Because everyone in this world believes that doctors are the experts who know a person’s body best. In fact, it is not the case. The person who knows your body best is not the doctor, but you.
He didn't know when he was poisoned. However, no one understands better than him what condition his body is in now.
I'm just afraid that if I don't ask today, I'll never have the chance to speak again...
Lu Chen wanted to smile, but now, he found that he couldn't even move the corners of his lips.
So, he allowed that terrifying power to pull all the functions of his body, and finally, he slowly closed his eyes...
The almost transparent face sunk lifelessly on the pillow. The lips were colorless, exuding a strange coldness, like a horror painting or a bleak nightmare.
Leng Yiyao stood firmly on the spot, as if she had not regained consciousness. It seems that everything in front of me is too absurd!
The wet nurse not far away suddenly trembled in her hand, and the hot medicine bowl fell to the ground in front of the bed with a crisp echo.
Until a horrified cry echoed through the entire dormitory - "Your Majesty!"
The captain of the guard stood at the door. After hearing Lu Chen's wet nurse scream out this sentence, his whole body went limp and he almost fell to the ground. At that moment, he simply suspected that God was playing an impossible joke on him!
The doctors and experts waiting not far away from the corridor were suddenly horrified and rushed in like crazy.
When they saw the scene in front of them, everyone felt a chill in their hearts. Without any hesitation, some people took a big step and walked directly to the bed.
I stretched out my hand to diagnose again. After a long time, even my fingertips could no longer tremble!
The poison that has never been diagnosed is so overbearing and cruel!
Looking at the Queen Mother who rushed over in a hurry, even her hair was a mess, the imperial doctors looked ashen and suddenly fell to the ground and knelt down towards her: "The Queen Mother, Your Majesty, he has gone..."
