Chapter 1233: Hide

Translator: Lonelytree

Hearing the painful cries coming from the royal study, Noble Consort Zhou’s heart jolted, and panic flashed in her eyes.

However, since things had come to this, she could not retreat. Otherwise, the consequences for them might be a bottomless abyss and a disaster.

Her face immediately showed worry as she said anxiously,” Eunuch Zhang, what’s wrong with His Majesty? He… He…”

Eunuch Zhang immediately said to Noble Consort Zhou,” Your Highness, His Majesty is fine. Please go back!” However, his expression was very fake, as if he was trying to hide his intention.

Noble Consort Zhou did not believe it at all. She stared at Eunuch Zhang’s guilty expression and said suspiciously,” But Eunuch Zhang, just now I clearly heard His Majesty…” She heard the Emperor’s painful wails.

Eunuch Zhang immediately interrupted Noble Consort Zhou’s unfinished words and said with a serious expression,” Your Highness, you heard wrong! His Majesty has always been in good health. However, he is currently busy with government affairs. I’m afraid he doesn’t have time to drink the soup that the Noble Consort has made. Therefore, please go back!”

In the past, Noble Consort Zhou would have been very unhappy with these words. After all, Eunuch Zhang was a servant. What right did he have to make his own decisions for the Emperor? She would definitely have been angry.

However, at this moment, Noble Consort Zhou had a guilty conscience and could no longer care about the crime of Eunuch Zhang exceeding his authority. She only smiled and said,” Oh, then perhaps I really misheard! Since that’s the case, then I will not disturb His Majesty’s official business!”

After saying that, Noble Consort Zhou turned around and left with the soup in her hand!

After Noble Consort Zhou left, Eunuch Zhang immediately turned around and entered the royal study.

Then, he saw the Emperor sitting at the table. His expression was a little gloomy, terrifying, and dignified.

Eunuch Zhang respectfully said to the Emperor,” Your Majesty, the Imperial Consort has already left!”

Yuwen Longyan placed his hands on the table and asked seriously,” What did she do?”

Eunuch Zhang said truthfully,” Your Majesty, although the Consort hid very well, this old servant still discovered that there was something wrong with her. When the Imperial Concubine heard the Emperor’s painful wail, her expression was one of worry and concern. However, the joy that flashed across her eyes could not escape this old servant’s eyes!’

Hearing Eunuch Zhang’s words, Yuwen Longyan’s anger immediately rose. He gritted his teeth and said,” Very good, very good!”

The woman he doted on schemed against him and even wanted him to live a life worse than death.

How despicable!

Eunuch Zhang looked at the Emperor, who was awe-inspiring without being angry but made people tremble in fear, and his entire person was trembling with fear.

After all, accompanying the ruler was like accompanying a tiger!

Although he was the Emperor’s trusted aide, the Emperor was in a bad mood. Who knew if he would say something wrong? If he were not careful, he would lose his life.

However, since Eunuch Zhang was Yuwen Longyan’s trusted aide, his loyalty was naturally not something that ordinary people could compare to. Dying for the king was also a very glorious thing!

Eunuch Zhang carefully asked,” Your Majesty, are you not going to expose the Imperial Consort?”

Yuwen Longyan raised his hand and said, “I want to see how far they can go.”

When Eunuch Zhang heard this, he stood respectfully and did not say anything else!

As soon as Noble Consort Zhou returned to the Moon Palace, Yuwen Feiye came up to her and asked impatiently,” Mother, how is it?”

Yuwen Feiye was obviously referring to the extent of Yuwen Longyan’s poison!

Noble Consort Zhou looked at the servants in the hall and immediately said sternly,” All of you may leave!”

Following that, a group of servants filed out and closed the door!

After everyone had left, Noble Consort Zhou immediately said sternly,” Ye ‘er, how many times have Consort Mother told you to calm down? You must be calm and collected! Fortunately, this palace is filled with our people. If there are other spies, we are all finished!”

Yuwen Feiye immediately realized that he was being impulsive again. He quickly apologized,” Mother, you’re right!”

Noble Consort Zhou looked at her son’s sincere apology and sighed slightly in her heart. She thought to herself worriedly, ‘I hope Ye ‘er’s impulsive personality won’t bring disaster to himself!’

However, Noble Consort Zhou was very clear in her heart that, in reality, they were already in a disaster.

If they succeeded, everything would be fine. If they failed, everything would be over.

Noble Consort Zhou said very seriously,” Although Consort Mother did not enter the royal study, I could hear the wails of pain coming from the royal study. The poison that His Majesty was poisoned with was exactly the same as ours!”

Yuwen Feiye’s pupils constricted when he heard that. He said in disbelief,”

What kind of poison is this? Where did Zhou Dehong get this from?”

Noble Consort Zhou said, “Principal Zhang said that this poison is called ‘Divine Illusion’. It’s a forbidden drug in the southern border! It was said that even the strongest person in Southern Border could not endure this pain and might be controlled by others! In order to prevent the imperial family from being controlled by others, this medicine became a forbidden medicine in the southern border!”

In order to find out the poison that Noble Consort Zhou had been poisoned with, Principal Zhang had practically flipped through all the medical records in the Imperial Academy of Medicine before he found this medicine!

They did not expect that Zhou Dehong had spent so much effort and schemed for so long to control them!

However, asking them to compromise and obediently become his puppets was simply a dream!

Since he, a mere heir of an aristocratic family, could get the forbidden medicine of the southern border, how could they, a noble consort and a prince, who would soon be the emperor of the world, not be able to get more info and maybe the antidote to Divine Illusion?

When Yuwen Feiye heard this, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief. As long as they found out the source of the poison, it would be easy to solve it!

Yuwen Feiye frowned and asked,” Zhou Dehong hasn’t made any moves yet. What is he waiting for?”

Noble Consort Zhou shook her head and said,” Consort Mother’s people haven’t found out yet! However, we will just wait and see and wait for Zhou Dehong’s next move!”

Yuwen Feiye asked in confusion,” What about Father?”

Noble Consort Zhou was stunned for a moment. She closed her eyes and then opened them again. She said firmly and viciously,” We can only continue on this path!’

Yuwen Longyan said expressionlessly,” I understand! Continue to keep an eye on them. If anything happens, report to me immediately!”

“Yes, sir!”

When Yuwen Ling returned to the palace from the General’s manor, she was furious. She immediately sent someone to call Wen Yujing over.

In the end, the person he sent reported that Wen Yujing had gone to visit a distant relative and was not in residence! And she wouldn’t be able to return to the residence for a while

Yuwen Ling wasn’t a brainless person. If she still hadn’t realized that she had been tricked, then she would really become a fool in the world.

Wen Yujing wasn’t visiting her family. She was obviously avoiding the princess!

Yuwen Ling gritted her teeth at Wen Yujing, but she was not angry.. Instead, she laughed and said,” Wen Yujing, you can hide for this time, but let’s see if you can hide forever!”
