The pills took effect, and Eunuch Li was relieved and just waited to see what would happen tomorrow.

The next day, Eunuch Li listened to the voice in the room that sounded like coaxing a child, his lips twitched slightly, and he played with the Nine-Five Lord like a child, that is, the mother and child in front of him.

Eunuch Li still found an opportunity to feed the emperor the pills when he was out of court.

The emperor stood up and moved his body. He felt the weakness in his whole body. His eyes were slightly cold. That mother and son were really good!

Looking at Eunuch Li who was kneeling on the ground, he personally helped him up, "Just follow your usual attitude in the past few days, and don't let them find out!"

The emperor whispered.

Eunuch Li nodded quickly, "Your Majesty, have you fully recovered? Or is it temporary like yesterday?"

"It should be temporary, but it will last longer than yesterday!"

"Do you need me to inform His Highness?"

The emperor pondered for a long time and said, "No, let's wait a few days until I wake up completely."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"His Royal Highness is here!"

The eunuch's summons came from outside the door.

The emperor's eyes turned cold, murderous intent rose in his heart, and he suppressed it with great difficulty.

"Go, go out and see!"

"Your Majesty, you..."

"Don't worry, I will pretend that I haven't recovered."

"Okay, Your Majesty."

The emperor was supported by Eunuch Li, with chaos and ignorance in his eyes.

Eunuch Li helped the person out and saw the mother and son sitting on the chair talking happily. They didn't show any intention of getting up when the emperor came over.

Eunuch Li felt the hand holding him tighten, then relaxed, and then he let go of his worry.

The Emperor walked over to the table and sat down like a puppet.

The third prince glanced at his father with disgust in his eyes.

"Mother, you have worked so hard. You have to serve your father every day!"

I thought it was very filial to say this.

The third prince's mother and concubine covered her mouth and laughed, "It's not hard, but it's fun, like teasing a child!"

The third prince made a sound of interest.

The third prince's mother-in-law picked up the grapes on the table and tasted them on the emperor's lips, "Come on, open your mouth, ah..."

The emperor put his hands under the table and squeezed them tightly, "Okay, very good, I will definitely not be able to spare you in the future."

Eunuch Li's heart trembled and he looked at His Majesty nervously.

The emperor opened his mouth and ate a grape.

The third prince became interested, "Is this the effect of that poison? It's really good, tsk tsk!"

Unfortunately, poison also has limits.

The third prince and his wife giggled, "Isn't it interesting? I didn't expect this medicine to be so fun."

The third prince looked startled, "Mother, the second, fourth, and tenth children haven't done much recently, but you still have to be careful, so as not to be discovered by those people."

"Don't worry, those few are filial, but it's a pity that they are not all grounded?"

The third prince's mother and concubine suddenly thought of something, "By the way, when are you going to ask His Majesty to designate me as the queen? Only when I become the queen can you be justified."

Before she finished speaking, she picked up the tea cup and took a sip, but she didn't see the impatience and murderous intent in the eyes of several people.

One belongs to His Majesty, the other belongs to Eunuch Li, and the other is his eldest son.

Make your mother a queen? Do you still want to be squeezed? Even if the emperor is gone and his mother-in-law becomes the empress dowager, he will still be controlled.

The third prince concealed a smile and said, "Don't worry, concubine, you will be fine soon."

If there is really a suitable time, he might as well directly ask His Majesty to give up the throne.

The two talked secretly for a while, and the emperor listened expressionlessly.

When the two ended their conversation, the emperor's eyes returned to chaos again.

Eunuch Li had been paying attention to the emperor's appearance. The moment his expression changed, he began to listen carefully to the conversation between the two, and later told His Majesty.

Naturally, the two of them did not expect to be heard by the rightful owner, and they spoke very boldly. There were many confidants of the two of them in the courtyard. Even Eunuch Li had no choice but to obey because His Majesty's life was in the hands of the two of them.

There has been no news in the palace, but the second prince and others have witnessed the effect of the pills with their own eyes, so they are relieved.

I'm afraid it's starting to take effect, but I just haven't had a chance to send the message out.

On the other hand, it also proves that the father is under very strict supervision, or in other words very dangerous.

They must be prepared with both hands. In case the pills are not effective or something unexpected happens, they must always pay attention to the movements in the palace to ensure His Majesty's safety.

At the same time, he secretly paid attention to the third prince to prevent him from rebelling.

It's a pity that a few people don't have military power. Even the fourth prince handed over his military power after returning to the capital.

And all they can count on is the Royal Forest Army in the capital.

Although the imperial guards are all brave, if the enemy attacks in large numbers, they may not be able to resist for a long time.

Your Majesty is coordinating the Royal Forest Army, and they all obey His Majesty's orders. They also have tokens, and they can only send out troops after seeing the tokens.

Well, we are stuck in a cycle again. It would be great if my father could wake up and mobilize the dead soldiers around him to help them!

The Fourth Prince has many former members, but now he is restricted in his freedom and cannot leave the capital, let alone meet with them.

It only takes a few days, and after a few more days, the pill will take effect, and my father will be able to find a way to get the news out.

After waiting for another two days, on the sixth day, news finally came from the palace.

The second prince held his father's autographed letter in his hand and couldn't help but tremble slightly.

"Father finally received a letter!"

He also wanted to sit in that position, but he didn't want to rebel and wanted to take it personally from his father.

Along with the letter came a token with a tiger on it.

This is a troop deployment order, which can mobilize [-] troops from surrounding provinces.

"My son, my father is fine and safe. Please mobilize your troops as soon as possible. They won't wait too long!"

The writing on it was very short, which made the expressions of the second and fourth princes stiffen. The two of them looked at each other, feeling hesitant in their hearts. What does it mean? Are the two third princes going to take action?

Mo Xuan and Shi Ziye on the side came forward and saw the writing on it.

Mo Xuan looked slightly cold, "Your Highness, Second Highness, and Fourth Highness, you two must make up your mind as soon as possible!"

The second prince nodded and said, "Well, I know, the situation looks very serious, but who will send this tiger charm out? The fourth child and I are both under grounding. The goal is too big. It's okay to leave the house occasionally. If we leave the capital..."

"Yes, if I move, I'm afraid Third Brother will immediately attack with his army!"

The fourth prince also said that he was a general who came down from the battlefield. Although his face was disfigured and he lost his intention to seize the throne, his strength was there. If he helped the second brother openly, he would probably be jealous of the third brother.

Several people looked at Hong Ying together. Hong Ying almost spit out a mouthful of tea, with cold sweat all over his face, "I have no power and power, and I have Sequoia at my back. If I were sent over, I would probably be treated as a traitor."

Everyone looked away. It was indeed the case. The prince also said, "Why don't you let Mo Xuan go? He is sick at home and there are not so many people watching. It should be okay to go secretly."

The Second and Fourth Highnesses nodded and looked at Mo Xuan.

Mo Xuan sighed, "I can go, but you have to promise that if chaos breaks out, you will protect my wife and several children."
