Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
Sima You Yue took Huan to meet Yu Yan.
“Second Prince, this is my friend. When he heard I was in danger, he came to protect me. Rest assured, he won’t reveal the secrets of the Great Yu Palace.” Sima You Yue said.
Yu Yan sized him up, and was a little frightened. He was unable to determine the opponent’s strength! He didn’t know that Huan was someone without spiritual energy, so that left only one explanation, Huan’s strength was much higher than his!
“That’s good. The Duke may not have time to take care of you in the coming days. Now that you have someone to protect you, it will be safer when you go out too. I will have someone arrange a courtyard for him.”
“There’s no need to go to any trouble, he can stay next door to me..” Sima You Yue said.
Yu Yan hesitated only for a few seconds before he agreed, then he instructed someone to tidy up the room next to Sima You Yue.
If it had been someone else, he would have looked into the matter. However, Sima You Yue’s identity was special, she was not just Yu Ke Luo’s daughter, she was also the Ghost King’s granddaughter. Even if she was the only doctor who could heal his Imperial Father, he couldn’t make things unpleasant with her.
“Second Prince, is the bathtub ready? Can we proceed with today’s medicinal bath?” Sima You Yue asked.
“It has already been prepared. Come this way please.”
Yu Yan walked ahead first and Sima You Yue and Huan followed him inside.
When Sima You Yue saw the Prince of Great Yu sitting up on bed, she introduced Huan after saluting.
The Prince of Great Yu didn’t object to Huan following her and told Yu Yan to make sure he was well looked after.
After Sima You Yue put the prepared medicinal essence into the prepared bathtub, the water turned green once again.
“Prince, please.”
The Prince of Great Yu took a deep breath, then he took off his clothes after he made up his mind, then he stepped inside the bathtub and sat down.
In comparison to the peacefulness in the side courtyard, the Great Yu City was in a state of nervousness.
When the story of the Prince of Great Yu vomiting blood and losing consciousness at the banquet had spread throughout the city that night, the people were all worried about the safety of the Prince. However, as there had been no news at all, they were all getting anxious.
As for some others, their mood was quite pleasant at this point in time. Many people had gone to see the Princess Consort and said that the time had come for them to take action.
The Princess Consort was a little hesitant and wondered if the time had really come.
“Imperial Mother, I think that it’s better to send someone to the side courtyard to investigate before making plans.” Yu Qi said.
“What is there to investigate? Your Imperial Father has been using forbidden drugs for so long that his health has already deteriorated beyond repair. It’s just that it has happened earlier than we expected. Seventh Imperial Brother, don’t be so timid in everything you do. This is not the way a man should behave!” Yu Liu’s fat body shook as he waved his hand.
“Eldest Imperial Brother, if this is a strategy that Imperial Father has designed, then we also need to plan ahead or it will be detrimental to us.” Yu Qi explained.
“Do you think that Imperial Father can plan a strategy in his current condition? If Imperial Father had wanted to do anything, we would have known about it a long time ago. Why would he wait until his health was so poor?” Yu Liu sneered at his suggestion as he thought that he was overthinking things.
Yu Qi, however, didn’t think so. He felt that it was better to be more careful. Besides, it was pointless to talk to this fool. He turned his gaze to the Princess Consort and said: “Imperial Mother, what do you think?”
The Princess Consort leaned back on her chaise lounge and propped her chin up with one hand as she thought about the possibility of this matter.
“Come here.” She called out and someone came in immediately.
“Princess Consort.”
“Send someone to the side courtyard and see how the Prince is doing.” The Princess Consort ordered.
“Yes, Princess Consort.” The person received his order and went out.
Yu Liu had wanted to say that it was unnecessary, however, he didn’t dare to refute the Princess Consort’s decision. Yu Liu smiled. The more cautious the Princess Consort was, the more likely they were to succeed.
“Alright, you may all go back first.” The Princess Consort waved her hand and drove them all out of her house.
After a while, someone appeared in her house. When she saw who it was, she smiled charmingly: “Why did it take you so long to come? I miss you so much.”
“I was given a task from my superiors recently and have been too busy. If I hadn’t taken the opportunity and taken on this mission, I wouldn’t have been able to come.” The man stepped forward and pressed her down, “You’ve missed me, what part of me have you missed? Above or below?”
“You’re so bad!” The Princess Consort squeezed herself against him shyly, “Let’s talk business first! This time the Prince...well...”
“We can talk about business later, an order has come for you from the superiors. Though that’s no hurry, we can get down to business first...”
“Irritating...”
No one outside knew what about the wonderful scene that was happening inside the house.
After a while, the Princess Consort leaned against the man and said: “What did the superiors say?”
“You are to confirm the Prince of Great Yu’s condition, and if it is true, then we can proceed with the plan.” The man said.
“That’s needless to say. I have already sent someone to investigate. As long as his condition is real, then we can get rid of all his forces under him. However, I think that it all seems a little too easy, and I’m not convinced.” The Princess Consort said.
“What’s too easy? You have been planning for this day for years. He will never be able to recover from using forbidden drugs. Our years of hard work will not be in vain.” The man reassured her, “Are you sure that he has taken the forbidden drugs?”
“I am certain of this. I had personally obtained the drugs myself and saw him take it with my own eyes. Although he gradually stopped taking them later on, the amount that he had taken was enough.” The Princess Consort said with certainty.
“Then there’s no problem. He couldn’t have been pretending to be sick all these years with the effects of the forbidden drugs. Although the onset of his illness this time was a bit earlier than expected, it is not impossible.”
“Even if that’s the case, it’s better to be safe.” The Princess Consort said, “I have already sent someone to the side courtyard to investigate and confirm the situation.”
“Well, you have always been very accountable in everything you do, that’s why the superiors have entrusted such an important matter to you. Since we still have no news of the investigation yet, shall we do it again?”
“Don’t...” The Princess Consort’s protest turned into tender gasping and the house turned into a wonderful scene once again.
In the side courtyard of the Great Yu Palace, Sima You Yue was giving the Prince of Great Yu a medicated bath. Huan came to her side and whispered a few words into her ears, her face sank suddenly when she heard them...
A moment later...
“Imperial Father, Imperial Father, how are you?!”
The Prince of Great Yu lay on the bed and was vomiting blood profusely. Yu Yan was by his bedside looking at him anxiously.
“Doctor Hao, take a look at my Imperial Father quickly. Why did he start vomiting blood again? Didn’t you say that Imperial Father will not vomit blood again after he eats that pill?” He vented his anger on Doctor Hao who was beside him.
“Second Imperial Prince, please calm down. The Prince’s body has been damaged severely by the use of forbidden drugs, his internal organs have been corroded. The Prince had been using his spiritual energy to suppress the side effects previously, but now that he is in a coma, he has no control over his spiritual energy, so naturally...”
