Raising a concubine under her nose, the reborn mistress marries the prince
Chapter 202: Falling into a Trap
Emperor Rong Sheng widened his eyes, looking at the scene in disbelief.
The charming and beautiful Concubine Zheng would personally bring him a variety of his favorite soups every three days.
At first, Emperor Rong Sheng always drank to his heart's content.
Concubine Zheng is an expert at making soup, and Emperor Rong Sheng loves it.
As expected, just as the stinky Taoist said, the skilled Imperial Physician Zhou had never been able to detect poison in the soup.
In this way, Emperor Rong Sheng drank poison for three months without realizing it.
Finally, on a dark and windy night, the poison in his body broke out completely, and he instantly felt as if thousands of ants were gnawing at his heart and he was in unbearable pain.
When the poison took effect, Emperor Rong Sheng looked around and found that only Duke Zheng and Lin Mushen were by his side.
At this moment, they were no longer as submissive and humble as before, but completely exposed their hideous and terrifying true faces.
Lin Mushen was seen holding a sharp sword, pressing forward step by step, forcing Emperor Rong Sheng to write a will and pass the throne to him.
Duke Zheng stood aside with a smug smile on his face, the jade seal symbolizing supreme power already prepared in his hand.
"You..." Emperor Rong Sheng suddenly woke up from his dream.
It turns out that Prince Jin and his son both want him dead!
Poor Wang Defu loyally guarded Emperor Rong Sheng, but unfortunately, these two cruel beasts cruelly covered his mouth and nose and suffocated him to death.
At this moment, Emperor Rong Sheng was helpless.
The entire Qianlong Palace is already filled with their minions and confidants, and there is nowhere for them to escape.
Faced with such a desperate situation, Emperor Rong Sheng was filled with despair and shouted at the top of his lungs: "The Jade Seal, the Dragon Robe, the Throne... All are yours! Hurry and give me the antidote!"
Hearing this, Lin Mushen laughed out loud, his laughter sounded like the cry of an owl at night, and it was creepy.
He said coldly: "Father, please don't be so delusional. From the moment I decided to poison you, I never thought of leaving you alive."
"You rebellious beast!" Emperor Rong Sheng was so angry that he tried to struggle to get up from the bed.
But he was helpless because his whole body was limp and weak, and he could hardly move even his fingers.
At this time, Duke Zheng spoke slowly: "Your Majesty, you should save your energy. Since ancient times, there can be no two tigers in one mountain. There can only be one ruler in this world.
Now that we have come this far, there will be no more mercy. Today is the day you die!"
Duke Zheng's face was as gloomy as water, and a trace of determination flashed in his eyes. He looked at Emperor Rong Sheng coldly, turned around without saying a word, took out a pen and paper, and then put it heavily on the table, saying sternly: "Write! Only by writing this edict can you set off safely and avoid further torture."
When Emperor Rong Sheng heard this, he couldn't help feeling sad, but at the same time, a sense of stubbornness arose spontaneously.
He glared at Duke Zheng and Lin Mushen fiercely and sneered, "Humph! I am the ruler of a country, how could I be threatened by you? I will die anyway, I will never let you traitors get what you want!"
After saying that, he turned his head away and never looked at the paper and pen again.
Seeing this, Lin Mushen raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a sinister smile.
He slowly said, "Father, you really don't want to accept my offer. I might as well tell you that in two hours, the poison you have been poisoned with will take effect. By then, the pain will be like a thousand arrows piercing your heart, making it impossible for you to live or die."
As he spoke, he paused deliberately, observing the changes in the expression on Emperor Rong Sheng's face.
Lin Mushen knew very well that Emperor Rong Sheng was timid and afraid of pain by nature, and would make a fuss even if he was just bitten by a mosquito.
Therefore, he firmly believed that as long as the poison began to take effect, Emperor Rong Sheng would not be able to bear the severe pain and would surrender.
Sure enough, time passed by minute by minute, and two hours went by in a flash.
At this time, Emperor Rong Sheng's face had already turned as pale as paper, with beads of sweat the size of beans constantly rolling down his forehead.
He felt as if countless steel needles were piercing his whole body, and every inch of his skin was filled with piercing pain.
This feeling is so terrifying, it is a hundred times or a thousand times more terrifying than death.
Emperor Rong Sheng, who had originally been hoping for rescue, was now completely in despair.
Because until now no one has come to rescue him.
As time went by, Emperor Rong Sheng's body trembled more and more violently, and painful groans came from his throat from time to time.
At this moment, for him, living one more moment would be an unbearable torment.
"I'll write it, please let me go!" The high and mighty Emperor Rong Sheng only asked for a quick death.
Duke Zheng quickly spread out the paper and pen neatly, then respectfully handed them to the emperor, asking him to start writing.
However, the emperor at this time was suffering from severe pain, his hands were shaking constantly, and he could not even complete such a simple action as holding a pen.
Seeing this, Duke Zheng's eyes flashed with a barely perceptible cunning, and then he took out a small pain-relieving pill from his pocket.
Without hesitation, he threw it towards the emperor. The emperor caught the pill with difficulty and swallowed it. The pain seemed to be slightly relieved.
But the good times did not last long. Just as the emperor finished writing, the piercing pain came again like a tide, and it was more intense than before.
The emperor groaned in pain: "Please... kill me!" This emperor who was once so majestic and powerful that he held the power of life and death over the world was now so humble that he only wanted to quickly end this endless pain.
Emperor Rong Sheng knew that he was at the end of his rope and there was no way to save the situation, so he had no choice but to obey Lin Mushen's wishes.
He watched Lin Mushen's ecstatic look when he received the imperial edict, and his heart was filled with sadness and resentment. Not long after, Lin Mushen ascended the throne as he wished.
The first thing the new emperor did after ascending the throne was to launch a bloody purge of the previous emperor's descendants.
He ruthlessly ordered the killing of all the princes, even the brave and fearless Prince Yu who had made great achievements on the battlefield was not spared.
Prince Yu fought on the battlefield all his life and risked his life for his country, but in the end he was accused of treason by Lin Mushen.
In fact, Lin Mushen knew very well that Prince Yu Lin Muheng was both wise and brave, and his strength should not be underestimated. If he were allowed to live, he would become a great threat to him.
So, no matter what, Lin Muheng must die.
To this end, Lin Mushen carefully planned a conspiracy, and finally successfully found an excuse to kill Lin Muheng, who had just made great military achievements and was in the limelight.
At this point, the lineage of the previous emperor was completely cut off, and Lin Mushen sat firmly on the dragon throne that symbolized supreme power.
