Looking at his wife and children who suddenly appeared, other emotions finally appeared on Li Nong's cold expression.

Shock, worry, heartache, anger...

"They are innocent, why did you bring them here?"

Li Nong shouted and tried to break free from his restraints to get to his wife and children.

One of the guards kicked his leg and broke it, forcing him to kneel on the ground.

Upon seeing this, the women and children burst into tears out of heartache and wanted to come over, but were stopped by the imperial guards. The whole family just stood there crying heart-wrenchingly.

Lin You sat back in his seat and drank tea.

It turns out that Shen Jing'an has already prepared everything and is just waiting for Concubine Xian and Li Nong to jump in.

Tsk, I never realized that the sickly emperor is such a scheming person.

"Hahahaha!"

The virtuous concubine suddenly burst into laughter, looking a little crazy.

She walked up to Li Nong step by step, bent down and grabbed the man's hair, forcing him to look at her. "Li Nong, didn't you tell me that I was the only one in your heart? What's going on with that woman? And what about those children?"

Li Nong was stunned. He didn't know how to respond to Concubine Xian's words.

In his and Prince Yu's plan, this scene would not have happened. Why did it happen?

He had clearly already secretly placed his wife and children in a remote mountain village, and Prince Yu's men were secretly protecting them, so how could the emperor still find them?

Prince Yu had clearly promised him that if his crime was exposed one day and he lost his life, he would ensure that his wife and children would have a comfortable life and that his son would serve as an official in the court. How did it turn out like this?

What went wrong?

"Snapped--"

Concubine Xian slapped Li Nong in the face, "You lied to me, Li Nong, you actually lied to me. You obviously have a wife and children, why did you lie to me and provoke me!"

Now, Concubine Xian felt that she was a joke, like a monkey being played and deceived by Li Nong, being watched by everyone.

Li Nong and the woman and her children are a family, and they have true love.

After being beaten, Li Nong did not look at Concubine Xian, but kowtowed three times to Shen Jing'an, "Your Majesty, please let them go, they are innocent. As long as you let them go, I will give out the person behind the scenes who ordered the two of us."

"Snapped……"

The virtuous concubine slapped Li Nong in the face again, "Li Nong, I just want to ask you one question, is your love for me real?"

"No."

Li Nong was so angry after being beaten that he turned around and roared with bloodshot eyes.

The Concubine's expression suddenly broke apart, like a broken person, and she stiffly said, "Then why did you come to provoke me? Why??"

"Because I was forced to do this, by you high and mighty people. In your eyes, the lives of people like us are just like those of ants, so I can only let you control and trample on me!"

The virtuous concubine took a step back, her face pale, "So, you were..."

"Um……"

When Concubine Xian was halfway through her words, an arrow suddenly hit her stomach. She was speechless, lowered her head in disbelief, and touched her stomach with trembling hands. The bright red blood instantly soaked her hands.

She uttered with difficulty, "My, child..."

child!

Li Nong's body suddenly shook and his eyes fell on Concubine Xian's belly.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa..."

Dozens of arrows were suddenly shot at him, and Li Nong fell to the ground. All the imperial guards ran over to protect him, and when they dodged, the woman and the child were all hit by the arrows.

"Yanzhi."

Shen Jing'an shouted coldly, and Yan Zhi immediately chased in the direction of the arrow. The person in the dark fled, and the courtyard returned to silence.

It took a long while before everyone came to their senses. The Imperial Tutor stumbled over to Concubine Xian, picked her up, tears welling up in his eyes. He anxiously called for the Imperial Physician, and the old pharmacist hurried forward to help stop the bleeding.

Xianfei tightly grasped the Grand Tutor's hand, her eyes full of guilt, "Dad, I have been caught in my own trap. I have failed you and mother in raising me, and I have failed your expectations. I am sorry..."

After uttering these few words with difficulty, Concubine Xian's eyes gradually closed.

The hand holding the tutor also suddenly fell to the ground.

The old pharmacist sighed and patted the master's shoulder, "One corpse, two lives."

Li Nong and the woman had two children, but they all died.

Obviously this is pulling out the weeds at their roots.

"Cough cough..."

Shen Jing'an started coughing violently. He felt a fishy and sweet taste rising in his throat, and the next second blood flowed out from his lips.

"emperor."

Eunuch Hong exclaimed, and the people from the Imperial Pharmacy were about to come and check on Shen Jingan, but the pale and weak man raised his hand to stop them and refused their touch.

He wiped the blood from his lips elegantly and said coldly, "Take Pharmacist Gao and Pharmacist Zhen to jail."

"what!"

The two imperial pharmacists were stunned by these sudden words.

"Your Majesty, have I done anything wrong?"

The two men fell to their knees, looking confused.

My legs were shaking with fear.

"You know what you did."

Shen Jing'an glanced coldly at the two imperial pharmacists.

This is the reason why Shen Jing'an asked people from the Imperial Pharmacy to come here.

His health has not improved for many years, and it must be due to the tampering of the people in the Imperial Pharmacy.

Just now, the two pharmacists tried their best to stop Lin You from doing the experiment, which was enough to show the doubts.

Now most of the people in this palace are Prince Yu's men, and he needs to eliminate them bit by bit.

On the dragon couch, Lin You helped Shen Jing'an to massage and absorb the strange energy.

Perhaps because he was tired, Shen Jingan fell asleep soon.

At that time, in Prince Yu’s mansion.

"Has the matter of Concubine Xian been dealt with?"

Shen Yu was sitting in the study, writing while asking the man in black who had just entered.

The man in black knelt on one knee and reported, "It's been cleaned up."

"Ah That's good."

"only……"

The man in black hesitated.

Shen Yu paused with the pen in his hand, then looked up at the man in black, "What's wrong?"

"The Emperor removed the people from the Imperial Pharmacy."

Shen Yu frowned, "When did this loser start to have brains?"

"Your Majesty, Yang Zhongxing and Wu Shen are here."

The housekeeper of Prince Yu’s Mansion walked in.

Upon hearing this, Prince Yu’s face instantly darkened.

"understood."

Throwing away the pen in his hand, Shen Yu walked out of the study.

"Your Majesty."

There were two men of similar height standing in the front hall, one stood straight while the other was looking around.

As soon as Wu Shen saw Shen Yu come in, he bowed respectfully.

But Yang Zhongxing just pretended to do it lazily and didn't even call him "Prince".

Shen Yu glanced at Yang Zhongxing, "You are the second son of the Minister of the Central Secretariat."

"Yeah, that's right."

Yang Zhongxing nodded, but his eyes were not on Shen Yu, but were still looking around.

Shen Yu frowned. It was the first time he saw someone dare to ignore him like this.

Wu Shen, who was standing beside him, sneered, "Brother Yang, have you never seen the world? Since you came in, you've been like Granny Liu strolling around a garden."

Yang Zhongxing shook his head. "No, no, it's not that I haven't seen the world. It's precisely because I have seen too much that I can see that two-thirds of these valuable furniture in the prince's mansion are fakes."
