"Haha... Xiao Zihong, you are really stubborn. I have already prepared the imperial decree to pass on the throne. If anything unexpected happens to me today..."

The emperor's eyes were bloodshot at this moment, and he stared at his son in front of him with a sneer.

Xiao Zihong shrugged his shoulders, walked around in front of the crowd, and smiled proudly at the many guests who came to rely on him.

"So what? Doesn't your Majesty understand the current situation? Hahahaha... all the important officials in the court are here..."

The emperor looked at Xiao Zimo and his son, and Xiao Zimo, with a cold sweat on his face, nodded slightly towards the emperor.

Xiao Zihong looked at the officials who were still hesitating and threatened coldly, "Father, don't hold out any hope. If I'm not prepared, how can I..."

Lu Qingqing stood up at this time. Xiao Zihong's poison could not be delayed any longer, so she had no choice but to take the risk and stand out.

"Princess Chen, you..."

"What does Your Majesty want to ask? Why wasn't I poisoned, or..."

Xiao Zihong then thought about it and wondered how he could have forgotten her. And how could the disciple of the genius doctor Yuheng be easily poisoned?

At this time, he looked to Lu Qingqing's side, and did not see Chu Haochen. He looked around, and the fierceness in his eyes became more and more intense. Soon he turned his head and the cold light in his eyes shot towards Lu Qingqing.

"Tell me, where is Chu Haochen?"

Xiao Zihong suddenly flashed in front of Lu Qingqing, but before he got close, Lu Qingqing swung out her weapon, and the sound of the bell came closer and closer, heading straight towards his face.

Seeing that Lu Qingqing was well prepared, Xiao Zihong glanced at Old Man Lu and his son sitting at the table next to her. Xiao Zihong raised the corner of his lips and reminded her again that she had to think carefully and leave a way out for herself, otherwise even a miracle doctor would not be able to save her.

"A grown man nagging like that, he looks like he deserves a beating."

As Lu Qingqing was speaking, she saw that the guards outside had already surrounded the yard.

Xiao Zihong sneered with disdain, and when Lu Qingqing looked towards the yard, he ran towards Lu Jiang.

Mr. Lu was a veteran of many battles. Although he was lying on the table at this time, he could still feel the evil spirit approaching from behind at the first moment.

"boom"

Xiao Zihong's sword hit the cup that Grandpa Lu was running towards, and the green jade cup shattered.

"Hahaha...good, good, good...you are worthy of being a member of the Lu family."

Xiao Zihong shouted coldly, and the guards outside instantly rushed into the hall. Lu Qingqing watched as her grandfather and father came to her side.

She handed the two men the antidote and told them to detoxify the officials below first, as over time the poison would turn into something that controlled people's hearts.

"Hahaha... As expected of a miracle doctor's granddaughter."

As he spoke, Xiao Zihong's eyes turned cold and he drew his sword and attacked Lu Qingqing.

Old Master Lu found the right opportunity and ran towards the emperor's position. There was no way Xiao Zihong would let him succeed. At this time, the guards who rushed in from the door attacked Old Master Lu together.

"General Lu, save me..."

"Marquis Changping..."

There was a lot of shouting below, mixed with the sound of fighting. Lu Jiang picked up the sword on the ground and looked at his father who was trapped.

"Dad, go on."

After saying that, he threw a long sword towards Mr. Lu, and the guard beside him was just attracted by Lu Jiang.

At the critical moment, Lu Qingqing blocked a sword for Lu Jiang, and instantly a deep wound was cut on her arm. Blood gushed out, soon dyeing the entire arm red.

"My daughter..."

"It's okay, be careful, Dad."

Xiao Zihong watched as Old Man Lu broke through the siege and rushed to the side of the emperor.

"Your Majesty, please take the antidote first."

Xiao Zihong was furious at this time, and he shouted loudly towards the outside, but there was no response after two shouts.

At this time, Chu Haochen walked slowly into the lobby with a team of guards.

"What is Xiao Zihong waiting for? Is it the army outside the city, the spies in the palace, or the support from Shangyu Kingdom?"

Chu Haochen strode into the lobby and spoke quietly to the still arrogant Xiao Zihong. However, when his eyes fell on his little woman, he noticed the arm covered in blood, and his eyes turned cold.

He instantly flashed to Xiao Zihong's side and kicked him in the heart.

"You dare to hurt her, you're courting death!"

"Chu Haochen..." Lu Qingqing was afraid that he could not help but use his internal energy, so she called out to him.

Xiao Zihong fell at the emperor's feet and was about to get up when he was restrained by Mr. Lu.

"Hahaha...I don't believe that you, Chu Haochen, have such extraordinary abilities."

Chu Haochen put away the sword in his hand, walked slowly forward, and bowed to the emperor.

"I am late in coming to your rescue."

“Not too late, just right!”

Xiao Zihong looked at the two people who were playing a charade and frowned even more tightly.

Before this, the emperor had talked with Chu Haochen privately. Xiao Zihong was very ambitious and he had given him many opportunities before, but he ignored them.

Chu Haochen took his mother's token last night and went to call the secret guard over.

Unexpectedly, the army ambushed by Xiao Zihong outside the capital city, which was previously destroyed by Xiao Zimo, actually still had an army of 10,000 people. They hid outside the capital city at some point, just waiting for Xiao Zihong's order.

This time, with the cooperation of Chu Haochen and Lu Anping, all the armies were captured.

Moreover, the spies buried in the palace were also eliminated. Fortunately, Chu Haochen led people there in time. Unexpectedly, Concubine Yu led people to besiege Empress Shuyuan and Concubine De, and even threatened the little princess' life.

Concubine Yu was beheaded on the spot, and the little princess was just a little frightened. Fortunately, Concubine Youde comforted her.

Only then did Chu Haochen pull himself away and rush to the Fourth Prince's Palace. He did not expect that Xiao Zihong was so meticulous that he had deployed many secret guards around the palace.

"You really don't give up! Someone come..."

At this time, Mo Er came in with Qi Xueer.

"Xue'er..."

"Your Majesty..."

When Xiao Zihong saw Qi Xueer, he instantly went berserk and struggled desperately.

"I advise you to surrender."

Xiao Zihong's face was dark, his eyes were red, and he stared at Chu Haochen and sneered.

"Aren't you afraid of death? The poison in your body..."

After hearing what Chu Haochen said, there was still something he didn't understand. Lu Qingqing swung the Tiancan ribbon in her hand and tried to pull it out, but was stopped by Chu Haochen.

"Qing'er, don't be angry. It's not worth it to be with such a person."

Old Man Lu, who was holding Xiao Zihong, finally understood that the poison in his grandson-in-law's body was all caused by the boy in front of him.

"You are so evil-minded that you actually..."

Xiao Zihong laughed loudly, looking at the people in front of him who were full of resentment towards him, and said coldly: "The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. You can do whatever you want."

"My Lord... woo woo..."

Qi Xueer's eyes were red at this moment. Looking at the man not far away, her heart ached. Then she raised the corners of her lips and smiled faintly.

"Your Majesty, Xue'er will go first..."

Qi Xueer knew very well that the emperor would not let her live no matter what.
