Chapter 511: Can't Die Yet

Isn't it just a beast?

Pingyuan Bo also cursed in his heart over and over again, "You beast, you little beast, you have committed a sin..."

He was half lying on the bed, with a thick pillow stuffed behind him to support his back. His hands and feet were not flexible, and it was extremely difficult for him to move.

It seems like I have grown old in just one day.

This scene was quite shocking. Prince Meng, who was standing aside, felt a pang in his heart as he watched it. There was unconcealable panic in his eyes and on his face. He felt powerless and helpless as if the sky was about to fall.

But the culprit had a calm expression. He sat in a chair not far away, saying meaningless words in a very perfunctory manner.

Pingyuan Bo looked at her with dark eyes, opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, saliva flowed from the corners of his mouth.

Prince Meng hurried over and wiped him with a handkerchief, "Father, what do you want to say? Slow down, don't be anxious, your son is listening..."

"me……"

After struggling to squeeze out a few unclear words, Pingyuan Bo suddenly closed his eyes, not wanting anyone to see his emotions at the moment.

Prince Meng urged carefully, "Father, what exactly do you want to say? Your son doesn't understand..."

Pingyuan Bo took a deep breath and was about to speak again when he heard a voice that seemed childish but rather old-fashioned, "Grandfather, you should take a good rest. Don't worry about what's happening outside. The imperial physician said that you need to rest and recuperate. Don't think too much, and don't get angry. Otherwise, even if a miracle doctor comes, he won't be able to help..."

After a pause, she continued slowly, "If someone is so ignorant as to disturb you, your granddaughter will go to the palace to ask the emperor for help. Don't worry, the family will not be in chaos, and the Bo's Mansion will not be in trouble..."

Hearing this, Pingyuan Bo suddenly opened his eyes. No matter how old he was, a tiger was still a tiger and would not really be a sick cat. Although his body could not move, his sharp eyes still had some lethality.

Meng Yao's heart trembled, her spine suddenly tensed up, she clutched the handkerchief in her hand, feeling very uncomfortable, and blurted out, "Grandfather, I have my own reasons. I believe that you will definitely put the overall situation first, as well as our uncle's future. I promise you that as long as I am here, I will protect the house and will never let outsiders bully it..."

After saying that, perhaps fearing that this bargaining chip was not enough, she added, "Grandfather is ill and cannot attend the court for the time being. I can think of a way to help my uncle advance a few steps. There will definitely be a place for our uncle's family in the court. You don't have to worry about being ignored. As for my cousin, I will also do my best to help him gain a future!"

She spoke with such a firm tone, as if she was willing to serve the Earl's family and give everything for them.

Every word and sentence is like a vow, expressing loyalty.

Prince Meng was completely stunned. He stared blankly and asked in a trembling voice, "Yaoyao, what you just said... is it true?"

Meng Yao nodded heavily, "I dare not deceive grandfather and uncle, I will do my best to do it."

Prince Meng was so excited that his body was shaking. He used the little bit of rationality he had left to ask, "You, what are you going to do? Your Majesty, will Your Majesty agree? Our family is being questioned and surrounded by enemies right now..."

If not for this, my father would not have collapsed in anger. If he had not collapsed, the people in the Bo's Mansion would not be in panic, and he would not be left without anyone to rely on.

Therefore, Meng Yao's words were like seeing a piece of floating wood in the vast ocean. He tried desperately to grab it, but was afraid that it was an illusion caused by panic. In the end, it would be in vain, which would make him even more desperate.

Meng Yao pursed her lips and stood up, her face a little tense. "Grandfather is sick, and the current predicament of the uncle's house has been solved for the most part. I will take care of the rest. As for how to get uncle promoted, I also have a way. Uncle, just wait patiently..."

Prince Meng nodded subconsciously, "Okay, okay, then uncle will wait, but don't wait too long..."

Meng Yao concealed the contempt in her heart and said "hmm" in a lukewarm manner.

Seeing his son happy, all the negative emotions on his face disappeared. Ping Yuanbo felt a splitting headache. He struggled to squeeze out a sentence, "You, must do what you said..."

Otherwise, he would have no choice but to sacrifice his own relatives for the sake of justice.

Meng Yao saw the threat and murderous intent in his eyes. Her heart began to beat rapidly. She hurriedly replied, "Granddaughter promises to do it!"

Pingyuan Bo said nothing more and waved his hand at her.

Meng Yao secretly breathed a sigh of relief and quickly knelt down to pay her respects. "Grandfather, please take a rest. I will not disturb you any more. I will come to pay my respects to you tomorrow."

After saying that, he turned around and left in a hurry.

The footsteps were hurried, and looked quite embarrassed.

Prince Meng was stunned when he saw this. Before he could react, he turned around and saw the sneer and disgust in his father's eyes. He was immediately shocked, "Father, you..."

Pingyuan Bo retracted his gaze and fell on his son with complicated eyes. The feeling of powerlessness and resentment came over him again. He pointed to the exquisite little porcelain bottle next to him with difficulty, and the meaning was self-evident.

Prince Meng was in a dilemma and hesitated. "Father, Imperial Physician Han specifically told me not to take too much of this medicine. It's not for curing diseases, but for preventing accidents. It's a strong medicine. You don't have anything important to do right now, so how can you take it? Taking too much is bad for your health..."

Pingyuan Bo was determined. He pointed at the medicine bottle with trembling fingers and refused to put it down.

Prince Meng had no choice but to serve him and let him eat one.

The effect of the medicine was really good. Only a quarter of an hour after taking it, Pingyuanbo's limbs, which had been uncoordinated before, became steady. His hands and feet no longer trembled, and the muscles on his face no longer shook. Although it was still a luxury for him to get out of bed and walk briskly, he no longer had to exert any effort to open his mouth and speak.

He spoke clearly, but his words were so cold that they made people's scalps numb. "Zhongyuan, listen carefully. You must remember what your father said in your heart, and you are not allowed to tell anyone..."

Prince Meng, Meng Zhongyuan nodded blankly, and began to feel uneasy in his heart, "Father, you, you said..."

Pingyuan Bo grabbed his wrist fiercely, and said with some hatred in his tone, "My father's illness is not caused by anger!"

Hearing this, Prince Meng turned pale with fear. "Is it man-made? Someone wants to harm you? Who is it, who is it?"

He looked around in panic, as if the murderer was in the house and would take revenge on him in the next second.

Pingyuan Bo squeezed his arm hard, "Calm down, she's not an outsider! She's your good granddaughter, your good princess!"

"What?" Prince Meng's eyes widened in disbelief, as if he had heard some shocking news. He subconsciously refuted and denied, "Impossible, you are talking about Yaoyao? How is it possible? She, she is your own granddaughter, how could she hurt you? You are the sky that protects our Bo Mansion, what good will it do to her if you poke a hole in the sky? She is not crazy, how could she do such a stupid thing that would destroy the Great Wall?"

Pingyuan Bo beat his chest in grief and said, "Father doesn't want it to be her, but who else could it be except her?"

Prince Meng was so anxious at this moment, "Could it be Xu Huaiyi? Yes, it must be him. He must know that we secretly sent someone to poison and assassinate him, right? He is here to take revenge on us, father, we can't just sit there and wait to die, we must fight back!"

Pingyuan Bo stared at him and asked, "How do you fight back?"

Prince Meng was suddenly silent, and said in a daze, "If we send someone to assassinate him again, there will always be a time when he can't defend himself..."

Pingyuan Bo angrily slapped him on the head, "The little fortune that your father has accumulated these days is almost gone, don't you know? And you're sending death squads? What do you think death squads are? Cabbages?"

Prince Meng covered his head with his hands, looking aggrieved. "Then spend money to hire assassins, hire the most powerful ones. If one wave doesn't work, hire another wave. You will always find an expert who can take Xu Huaiyi's life..."

Pingyuan Bo pointed at him and cursed, "Weren't the people we hired before powerful enough? They all claimed to be experts, but what was the result? After taking our money, which one of them really got anything done? Didn't they all go and never come back? They are all useless. You still dare to mention assassins? Can't you use your brain and think of a useful solution?"

Prince Meng thought, if you can't do anything, what can I do? But he didn't dare to say that, so he could only carefully test it, "How about secretly asking the King of Chu? The King of Chu's mansion must have powerful people. They succeeded in silencing Li Yunzhao before, even with so many Jinyiwei guarding them?"

Hearing this, Pingyuan Bo was so angry that he laughed, "Looking for the Chu Palace? Is the Chu Palace so easy to use? They are busy with their own affairs now, why would they help us? Do you know what price we have to pay to use their people?"

Prince Meng shook his head honestly.

Pingyuan Bo said word by word, "Our Bo Mansion will become their pawns to force the emperor to abdicate. Are you willing to drag all the Meng family members to death?"

Prince Meng was frightened by these words and sat down on the edge of the bed with a thud. He was not stupid enough to question the truth of the words, and the thought just now disappeared without a trace. "Then we can't get involved in the Chu Palace, absolutely not..."

My goodness, what is forcing the emperor to abdicate? That is rebellion. Even if they are jealous of the merits of following the emperor, they don't want to follow the Chu Palace in rebellion.

If you fail, your entire clan will be exterminated. Even if you succeed, how far can you go with such a reputation? You may be abandoned in the future.

No matter how stupid he was, he knew that the road was dangerous and he would never think of doing that unless he was forced into a desperate situation.

Seeing him looking like he couldn't handle the task, Pingyuan Bo sighed helplessly, "Alright, stop thinking about it. If it wasn't Xu Huaiyi, he would still be a hundred miles away. How could he attack my father? Even if he is now a lieutenant and a general, the Gu family's foundation is still too shallow, and he doesn't have many people he can use. As for the Sun family and Jiang Yong he relies on, even if they protect him and want to support him, they won't use such means."

Prince Meng calmed down and thought about it carefully. Indeed, based on Jiang Yong's character, he would definitely not disdain to use poison. The Sun family, which claims to be a century-old aristocratic family, would not usually use despicable methods to harm others. Moreover, a family with a long history like the Sun family is the best at weighing the pros and cons, and would not offend the Earl's Mansion for the sake of an apprentice.

Even if someone is going to offend, they will only use evidence to argue in the court instead of giving others handles.

After all, as long as it was done, there would be evidence left, and if one really investigated it in detail, it was inevitable that the murderer would be found.

"So, it was really Yaoyao who did it?"

Pingyuan Bo nodded and smiled self-deprecatingly, "I never thought that my beloved granddaughter would choose to sacrifice me one day to preserve her own status. Good, really good. It is said that even a tiger will not eat its own cubs. I couldn't bring myself to kill her, but she bit her grandfather without any hesitation. She is indeed someone who has been enlightened by the Bodhisattva..."

Prince Meng didn't know how to respond, so he asked, "Do you have any evidence? I hope this isn't a misunderstanding..."

Pingyuan Bo looked at his son who was still not enlightened, and said weakly, "Didn't you hear what she said in the room just now? Why did she suddenly say that she wanted to help you get a high position? Forget about being filial. If she was filial, she should have helped your second brother get a position long ago..."

At this point, he couldn't help but say with difficulty, "Perhaps this is retribution? Back then, for the sake of the Bo Mansion, your father turned a blind eye to her drugging your second brother. She treated her biological father like this, so how soft-hearted can she be towards her grandfather?"

Prince Meng couldn't help but shiver, a chill ran from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, "Yaoyao, she is too cruel and ruthless..."

Pingyuan Bo said sarcastically, "She is more than cruel and ruthless, she is simply a crazy little beast. Why did your father assassinate Xu Huaiyi? It was for her! What was the result? Once something happened, she ran faster than anyone else and put all the blame on your father, leaving herself clean. What a good plan. Your father was also stupid. I shouldn't have been soft-hearted before and let her do whatever she wanted. Alas, she deserves it..."

Although he wanted to get rid of Xu Huaiyi to prevent this variable from affecting Meng Yao's ability to predict the future, he was not so arrogant as to dare to send people into the military camp to carry out assassinations one after another, which would be a slap in the face of the imperial court.

After failing twice, he planned to give up for the time being and wait for Xu Huaiyi to return to Beijing before looking for another opportunity, but Meng Yao disagreed. He still remembers her hysterical and crazy appearance at that time, which was simply chilling.

She refused to listen, and he was afraid that she would act alone and cause even greater trouble, so he had no choice but to send people to deal with Xu Huaiyi again. However, wave after wave of people never returned, and he regretted it then.

He even felt that it was God's will.

Now, he has suffered a stroke and is lying in bed, like a frail old dog, no longer able to control anything. Perhaps this is God's will.

Thinking of this, he became depressed, his hands and feet became uncontrollable again, and he fell to one side in a mess.

Prince Meng rushed over to support him, "Father, what happened to you? Is it, is the effect of the medicine over?"

When Pingyuan Bo spoke again, his words were already intermittent and not complete sentences. "Don't, don't panic. The sky won't fall yet. For now, listen to her and let her do it. You, you just wait to go to court and educate the child well..."

Prince Meng burst into tears when he heard this, and he nodded continuously. When he took a breath, he asked with a sob, "Father, won't you punish her?"

Pingyuanbo shook his head with difficulty, "It's too late..."

With the emperor protecting her, who can touch her?

"Son can go..." Prince Meng's eyes showed a bit of ferocity, "This little beast deserves to die."

Hearing this, Pingyuan Bo was relieved and anxious at the same time. He grabbed his hand with great effort and earnestly warned him, "No, she can't die yet. The mansion still depends on her to make plans. You, you can't beat her..."

Prince Meng immediately fell on the side of the bed and burst into tears.
