Chapter 1241: Forced to!
Translator: Lonelytree
Yuwen Longyan’s sharp eyes stared at Imperial Consort Zhou and asked sternly,” Beloved Concubine, tell me, where did the medicine you gave me come from?
As the target of this forced abdication, of course, he had investigated everything.
However, he still wanted to personally hear Noble Consort Zhou identify Zhou Dehong.
For his own desires and ambitions, Zhou Dehong ruthlessly killed his own father. Now, he was paralyzed in bed. He even gave his own sister this kind of “divine illusion ” and even forced his sister to poison him, the emperor.
Therefore, the emperor asked this question because he wanted to give Noble Consort Zhou a chance
When Noble Consort Zhou heard the Emperor’s words, her eyes immediately turned dark. Her heart felt as if it had fallen into a ten-thousand-year-old ice cave, and her entire person was on the verge of collapse.
She knew that their plan had completely failed.
Because she knew His Majesty very well. If he weren’t certain that their rebellion would fail, he would never say such things.
However, what she did not understand was…
Noble Consort Zhou’s face was pale. She tried her best to calm herself down and stop herself from trembling. She asked,” Your Majesty, were you not poisoned?”
Impossible!
If he wasn’t poisoned, why did he look poisoned?
Because she knew very well that people who had never experienced that kind of pain and despair would not be able to show that kind of intense expression.
However, if he was poisoned, why was he completely fine now?
The Emperor did not answer immediately when he heard Noble Consort
Zhou’s question. Instead, he glanced at Lin Yuelan and then stared at Noble
Consort Zhou coldly with his sharp dragon eyes. He then said,” Beloved Consort, do you think that I have never been affected by ‘divine illusion ?
Noble Consort Zhou did not doubt and said with certainty, “So you were poisoned!”
However, she was puzzled because…
“But, Your Majesty, you don’t seem to…” He didn’t look poisoned. Noble Consort Zhou asked suspiciously.
Yuwen Longyan said expressionlessly,” That’s because I met a miracle doctor. She gave me an antidote pill that can cure all poisons!”
“That’s impossible!” The one who denied him was a man’s voice that was filled with disbelief, anger, and madness.
Zhou Dehong didn’t believe that there was an antidote for ” Divine Illusion ” at all.
He had already investigated thoroughly.
The reason why this kind of ” divine illusion ” was called forbidden medicine in the south border was that the people who were poisoned by this kind of poison had to overcome the pain with their strong willpower. There was no antidote at all. If there were an antidote, it would never be a forbidden medicine
However, Zhou Dehong wasn’t too sure.
However, if Yuwen Longvan was really under the effect of the Divine Illusioni
why was he completely fine now?
Could there really be an antidote for Divine Illusion?
Soon, he got the answer.
‘Everything in the world is mutually restraining!” Lin Yuelan chuckled and said,” It’s not easy to cure such a high-profile poison!”
“What do you mean?” The one who asked this question was Yuwen Feiye.
Lin Yuelan looked at him with her sharp eyes and said with a cold smile,” Third Prince, you only know that this lady has opened a restaurant in Qing Feng City. Could it be that you forgot that I also opened a medicine shop?”
Yuwen Feiye’s pupils constricted when he heard that. He said in disbelief, “This… This is impossible!”
He remembered now. Not only did Lin Yuelan open a medicine shop in Qing Feng City, Lin’s Medicine Shop, but she was also a doctor herself. It was said that she was also a doctor with incredible medical skills.
Yuwen Feiye was still very suspicious.” Even if your medical skills are brilliant, it’s impossible for you to concoct the antidote for ‘Divine Illusion’.”
However, Lin Yuelan said in a very serious tone,” It’s impossible for others, but it’s not difficult for me at all!”
As soon as Lin Yuelan finished speaking, Zhou Dehong was the one who couldn’t accept this fact the most.
He said loudly, “You’re lying! If you really weren’t poisoned, why did you follow along and issue those two imperial edicts?”
Both Noble Consort Zhou and Yuwen Feiye had this doubt.
Yuwen Longyan said coldly,” That’s because I want to see what you will do after I am poisoned.”
“So, at that time in the royal study, you deliberately screamed in pain in front of me. Then, when I said I would wait at the Emperor’s bedside and isolate all outsiders. When I asked you to write those two imperial edicts, you agreed to it as an act?” Noble ConConsort Zhou said calmly and hopelessly.
“That’s right!” Yuwen Longyan replied.
Hearing this answer, Noble Consort Zhou collapsed to the ground.
She knew that they were finished!
However, Zhou Dehong was unwilling to give up. He said with determination,” Hehe, Your Majesty, so what if you aren’t poisoned? These are all my people.
As long as I say that His Majesty has been poisoned and that it was Jiang Zhennan who poisoned you, what can you do to me? Lord Lin,” As he spoke, he ordered Lin Yinc.heng, ” Capture this woman. Didn’t she say that she wanted to avenge her fiancé? I’d like to see how she’s going to Jiang Zhennan when she can’t even save herself.”
However, Lin Yincheng did not move at all.
Zhou Dehong looked at the situation and panicked. However, he still ordered again,” Lord Lin, did you not hear my order?”
Lin Yincheng still didn’t move!
“Lin Yincheng, what’s wrong with you?” Zhou Dehong shouted loudly with a panicked expression.
“Hmph, Zhou Dehong, it seems like you are very dumb!” Yuwen Longyan said sternly.
Then, he ordered Lin Yincheng,” Minister Lin, how is the Zhou family doing?
Lin Yincheng immediately replied,” Your Majesty, all 233 members of the Zhou Clan, including men, women, old and young, have been sent to prison except for Lord Zhou!”
As soon as Lin Yincheng finished speaking, Zhou Dehong, Noble Consort Zhou, and Yuwen Feiye’s expressions changed drastically. They could not believe this fact at all.
They were forcing the abdication in the throne room, but the Zhou family was all imprisoned.
This…
Noble Consort Zhou’s face paled as she said loudly,” Your Majesty!’
Although Zhou Dehong had let her down, the Zhou family was her maiden family. They were her reliance and emotional support since she entered the palace.
But now, because of them, the Zhou family…
Yuwen Feiye immediately knelt down and begged Yuwen Longyan,” Father, please spare me!” Then, he pointed at Zhou Dehong and said,” Zhou Dehong forced your son to do all of this. He was the one who drugged mother and me. After we were poisoned, he threatened us to listen to his arrangements. Otherwise, he would make mother and son wish they were dead! Father, your son has never thought of forcing the abdication! Also, it was his idea to drug you. This medicine was given to Imperial Mother by him.”
Yuwen Feiye pushed all the responsibility to Zhou Dehong, and he had no choice but to force the abdication just to protect himself! Zhou Dehong roared,” Yuwen Feiye!’
“Tsk tsk, what a great story!” Lin Yuelan said sarcastically..
