Chapter 158 The Chen Clan's Defeat
"Come on!"
After Chen Guangheng kicked the eunuch away, he turned around and drew out the long sword he had hidden on the side of the seat, stabbed fiercely, and roared.
When people outside heard Chen Guangheng's voice, they hurried in.
After they came in, they could only see His Majesty pressing the position on his side, blood soaking his dragon robe little by little, beside a tall man wearing eunuch uniform had already died over there.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty has been assassinated!"
The eunuch who came screamed, and the whole palace might have heard it.
Chen Guangheng knew that such news must not be spread at this time, he opened his mouth in anger to ask the person to shut up, but felt a numbness and stiffness constantly passed from the wound.
Chen Guangheng's complexion paled instantly, he looked at the people around him, and asked hoarsely, "Six... where is the sixth prince?"
"The sixth prince was struck by a crow at the corner, and he fainted from fright. He has been taken down now, and he is fine." The eunuch did not expect that the Emperor Chen was still worried about the sixth prince at this time, and the father and son really loved each other deeply.
"Yes...is that so?" Chen Guangheng was a little out of breath while speaking.
The imperial doctor came over quickly, and Chen Guangheng successively announced the admission of his closest ministers to the palace.
After almost one night, the sword on Chen Guangheng's body was pulled out, and the wound was bandaged.
The only trouble was that the dagger was actually poisoned.
Moreover, the poison was so strange that the imperial doctor was helpless.
"At the moment, only Empress Xuan has returned, and only Empress Xuan can cure the poison." The imperial doctor knelt down and said.
When Chen Guangheng heard the words "Queen Empress", his eyes widened suddenly, and finally he waved his hand and asked someone to go to Xuan Empress Empress.
Waiting for the people here to leave, Chen Guangheng, the emperor of the Chen family, sent someone to bring the sixth prince and the seventh prince to him.
"Your Majesty, after the sixth prince was frightened, he still has a fever and is unconscious." The people below said.
"Go and bring them here, I want to take care of them, they can't have any more accidents." Emperor Chen still asked people to bring them over.
But after waiting for Chen Guangheng's people to go, they found that the gates of the sixth and seventh princes' palaces had been locked. It was said that there were assassins in the palace. Be kind, or you will die from poison!
Everyone knows that Empress Shu is a master of medicine and poison, but they dare not go in after hearing this.
Even the emperor turned pale when he heard the words "death from poisonous hair", and in the end he could only ask people not to call him the sixth prince or the seventh prince.
"Your Majesty, your body..." The courtiers also became worried, and the Emperor Chen's complexion became more and more uneasy. The queen's side is probably the only one with such a strange poison in the palace...
It was even more chilling to think about it.
"It's all right... what's going on ahead." Emperor Chen struggled to sit up, the poison on his body just made him numb little by little, and nothing else had much effect.
"Your Majesty... Cui's people have calmed down a bit recently." said the people below.
"Really? Cough cough cough." Emperor Chen coughed and vomited blood before he could judge the situation.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty!"
The people below shouted again and again.
When Chen Guangheng woke up again, he saw Shu Feiyuan.
"Queen, save me..." After Chen Guangheng died frequently, he knew that only Shu Feiyuan could save him now.
Regardless of whether the poison was poisoned by Shu Feiyuan, he couldn't say now.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, my concubine has already detoxified Your Majesty, and my brother has also come over, saying that he will resolve the misunderstanding with Your Majesty." Shu Feiyuan reached out to caress Chen Guangheng's face while speaking, his eyes were full of tenderness meaning.
"Is...is that so? That's great, as expected...she is a lonely and good queen." Chen Guangheng didn't expect that Shu Feiyuan would bring such good news.
Now not only has he cured the poison, Shu Ning'an has also returned.
If he was poisoned once and the Shu brothers could vent their anger and continue to help him, then that would be fine.
"Cough cough." Chen Guangheng coughed a few times, and it really got better.
He looked at Shu Feiyuan and said, "My child... I will take good care of you."
"The concubine knows that the sixth prince has already told the concubine." While Shu Feiyuan was talking, there were footsteps outside.
"Uncle Shu Guo is here."
The people outside announced that Chen Guangheng hurriedly cleaned up, no matter what, he couldn't be too embarrassed in front of Shu Ning'an.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, my brother will be here soon." Shu Feiyuan said and pressed Chen Guangheng's shoulder, making him lie down.
Chen Guangheng was stunned for a moment, he looked at Shu Feiyuan, a little puzzled.
Seeing Chen Guangheng like this, Shu Feiyuan smiled, and turned sideways.
The light shone in, Chen Guangheng closed and opened his eyes under the light, and then saw Shu Ning'an coming in, one of his arms seemed to be gone.
He didn't know what happened, just when he opened his mouth to be concerned, he suddenly saw another person beside him looking at him with a half-smile.
"Cui Zhesong!"
Chen Guangheng looked at Yikang King Cui Zhechong as if he saw a ghost!
His pupils shrank suddenly, confirming once again that the terrifying man in front of him was indeed King Yikang Cui Zhesong!
"Come...to catch...the traitor!"
Chen Guangheng roared, but his voice was so weak that it couldn't even be heard in this room.
"Queen, the queen has someone arrest this traitor! I have a reward... I'm...cough, cough, cough." Chen Guangheng lost his breath as he spoke.
"My lord, I know that I have committed a serious crime. Now I can only exchange his life for the life of my father and son. Please forgive me." Shu Feiyuan knelt down in front of King Yikang.
"No... Who will you... Who?" When Chen Guangheng yelled, he suddenly stopped. He looked at Shu Ning'an and then at Shu Feiyuan who was kneeling on the ground, and he suddenly understood.
A self-deprecating smile came from the corner of his mouth, and the feeling of being teased and betrayed made him laugh out loud.
"So that's how it is, Empress...Empress, what a way you are!" Chen Guangheng finally understood that Shu Feiyuan was simply trying to persuade Shu Ning'an to let his guard down, and then set up this situation with the sixth prince as a bait.
He wanted to exchange his own life for the lives of the sixth prince and the seventh prince.
"Okay... okay! Guruo can still have such... value... cough, cough, cough." Chen Guangheng wanted to speak tragically, but the feeling of unwillingness in his heart continued to spread.
If it hadn't been for Empress Shu's move, he could at least have fought to the death with King Yikang, but now...
"Coward! Despicable!" Chen Guangheng cursed uncontrollably.
When did their Chen family lose face in front of Cui's family, it was all because of the Shu brothers who did nothing.
"Trash, if I knew it was like this, I shouldn't have been kind!" Chen Guangheng scolded the Shu brothers again.
"Snapped!"
A sudden slap came over, and a tooth in Chen Guangheng's mouth flew out from the slap.
"Brother!" Empress Shu called out, Shu Ning'an raised his hand and slapped Shu Feiyuan again, and said with a ruthless face: "You always tell me not to forget the blood feud of the Shu family, but look at yourself! Shu Feiyuan, you caused your brother to cut off his poison, and caused my family to disperse! Do you regard me as your brother, or as a tool for you to exercise power?!"
"Brother...Brother...I was wrong, I...I..." Shu Feiyuan burst into tears after being scolded. He has always maintained his composure and calculated every step clearly.
Seeing how Shu Ning'an turned against him now, he was very flustered.
No matter what happened to Chen Guangheng now, if he wanted to bring his child to survive in the future, he would naturally have to rely on Shu Ning'an.
Shu Ning'an still has a large army in his hands, so he has room to bargain with King Yikang no matter what.
Now if Shu Ning'an hated him, then he and his children would completely become fish and meat on the case, and could only be slaughtered by others!
"Okay, after all, it's a family, so there's no need to make trouble like this, and the king didn't come here today to watch your brothers quarrel." King Yikang walked over as he spoke, and he stretched out his hand to pinch Chen Guangheng's chin.
Chen Guangheng didn't have the strength to bite his tongue and kill himself.
King Yikang stretched out his hand to squeeze a pill and stuffed it into Chen Guangheng's mouth, and said, "This is my wife's panacea. No matter what kind of poison you are poisoned, it can help you live for ten days. After ten days, I want you to kneel down to meet the pill in person." Enter the court alone, and return the country that your Chen family took away with your own hands!"
"You're dreaming..." Chen Guangheng opened his mouth but couldn't make any sound.
"I forgot to tell you, although this elixir can slow down the poison, but as a price, you can't speak or move for ten days, and you can walk and talk after ten days." King Yikang patted Chen Guangheng's cheek and said. : "My wife's medical skills are the best in the world."
After King Yikang said this, Shu Feiyuan, who was kneeling on the ground next to him, felt an inexplicable fever on his face.
"Come here, take the Emperor Chen away." After King Yikang finished speaking, someone came from outside the house and wrapped Chen Guangheng away.
After waiting for Chen Guangheng to be taken away, Shu Feiyuan sat on the ground exhausted.
Although he and Chen Guangheng have come to this point today, they are the love of their lives... He naturally knows that handing Chen Guangheng over to King Yikang is probably more difficult than killing him.
Originally, he also wanted to kill Chen Guangheng, so he did his best.
But Shu Ning'an had warned him that if he did this, he would be worthless, and he could only keep Chen Guangheng's life.
"Empress Shu, get up too. With General Shu interceding for you, I can naturally let you, father and son, survive." King Yikang finished speaking and looked at Shu Ning'an.
Shu Ning'an lowered his head in shame, no matter what, he betrayed the Shu family's reputation of loyalty and patriotism, lost his arm, and even stabbed his apprentice.
This life is full of failures.
"Brother..." Shu Feiyuan couldn't stop crying when he heard this.
In fact, he and Shu Ning'an didn't get along for long, he only said that he was Shu Ning'an's closest person, but now speaking of it, he really harmed his elder brother's family.
If he hadn't researched those poisons, how could Emperor Chen have harmed his elder brother? !
"Forget it, six children and seven children are my blood, I hope elder brother will take care of one or two for the sake of Shu family ancestors, as long as they can live a lifetime is enough." Shu Feiyuan said, suddenly black blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
