“You, you…!” Huo Yuntian was so frightened that his face turned pale. He couldn’t say a complete sentence for a long time. In the end, his eyes rolled back and he fainted.

“Pass down the order that His Majesty is unwell. Let the doctors come to the palace to attend to his illness.” After Huo Junhan said this, he turned around and left.

Soon, everything that happened in the Noble Consort’s palace spread out of the palace.

The few kings, including Huo Zhao, didn’t dare to be careless and rushed to Yangxin Hall.

When Huo Zhao saw Huo Yuntian lying on the bed, as weak as if he had lost half his life, he could hardly believe his eyes. “Father, why are you so weak!”

Huo Yuntian’s eyes were gloomy. He lay on the dragon couch and said, “I’m fine. There’s no need for you to attend to my illness. Today’s matter is over. Go back.”

Huo Zhao’s eyes widened in disbelief. “Father, His Highness Li killed the Noble Consort in front of you. This is an act of rebellion and high treason. It’s a crime punishable by death. How can you swallow your anger…”

“Shut up!” Killing intent shot out of Huo Yuntian’s eyes. “I said that this matter will end here. No one is allowed to pursue it anymore. So everyone, retreat. I’m going to rest!”

Huo Zhao was indignant and wanted to speak again. Beside him, Huo Xiao reached out and pulled him. “Your Highness, His Majesty needs to recuperate. Let’s go out first.”

His fists tightly clenched, Huo Zhao’s expression was even more terrifying than if he had swallowed a fly. In the end, he had no choice but to leave.

On the way back, Huo Zhao, Huo Xiao, and the Prime Minister sat in the same carriage.

Seeing Huo Zhao’s dark expression, Huo Xiao hurriedly played the role of a mediator. “Your Highness, it doesn’t matter if Noble Consort Xia is dead. There are so many beauties in the world. Just find another one to offer to His Majesty next time.”

“Forget it. I just can’t stand His Highness. He’s so arrogant that he actually dares to attack Father. He really doesn’t take His Majesty’s heavenly might seriously!” Huo Zhao said fiercely.

“Don’t worry, Your Highness. In a few days, the princes will enter the palace to pay their respects. When the time comes, all the forces will attack. Even if it’s His Highness Li, he’ll still have to restrain himself,” the Prime Minister said respectfully.

“By the way, I’ve heard that Your Highness Prince Zhao has gained fame and caught the attention of several regional princes,” Huo Xiao said, fanning himself with his folding fan as he teased, “These regional princes are interested in forming a marriage alliance with Your Highness, but I wonder which princess from their families Your Highness truly favors?”

“The princesses are undoubtedly talented in various ways, and if i were to make a choice, I wouldn’t be able to find a clear favorite among them. However, if there is a suitable candidate to become my lawful consort, I would appreciate the assistance of both Your Highness and the Prime Minister, in speaking highly of me. That way, 1 can bring the beautiful lady back with me,” Huo Zhao’s lips curled into a smile as he spoke, extending a courteous hand gesture towards the two of them.

“Haha, Prince Zhao, don’t worry. We’re all in the same boat. We know what to do when the time comes,” the Prime Minister said with a smile.

That night, the moonlight was bright.

In the backyard of the General’s Mansion, Shen Yaowei stood in a dazzling golden light. She pinched out a lotus flower mark with both hands and relied on her spiritual power to raise the gold crystal Dharma artifact.

In the golden, translucent crystal bottle, a ball of white mist could be clearly seen. Spots of dazzling light appeared around the mist, flickering as if it was breathing and responding to her actions.

A smile quickly flashed across her eyes. Shen Yaowei held her breath and focused. She muttered something and gradually condensed the surrounding golden light until she constructed an array formation on the ground.

The moment the array formation landed, it emitted a mysterious light. Moonlight shone down, and pure spiritual power transformed into silver-white threads that continuously drilled into the small bottle in front of her, nourishing the soul inside.

Then, she raised her hand and constructed a semicircular barrier above the array formation. Shen Yaowei walked to the small bottle and stretched out her fingertips. She touched it gently and said softly, “Mother, this is a new array formation I built for you.. The energy in this array formation will be continuously transferred to your soul, nourishing it and helping you wake up as soon as possible…”
