Yan Donghuang put his hand on the case in front of him.

The old doctor turned around and asked the maid kneeling on the ground for a veil. Yan Donghuang's voice was hoarse and weak: "I don't care about these rules, so be it."

However, she could not care less, but Dr. Hao did not dare to care.

The palace maid just handed over the veil.

The old doctor put a handkerchief on Yan Donghuang's wrist, knelt in front of him and took his pulse carefully, a look of surprise gradually appeared on his originally gentle and elegant face.

"Don't worry, just tell the truth." Yan Donghuang's voice was calm, "You don't need to take what Yaoguang said just now, I will not let him kill innocent people indiscriminately."

The old doctor lives in the capital, and he heard about the poisoning of the eldest princess yesterday.

Because someone spread the news.

The current emperor could not tolerate the eldest princess and ordered Sheng Jing'an to poison her on her wedding night in order to kill her.

The eldest princess rebelled in anger.

Tonight, a palace coup will be launched, and the deployment of troops will put everyone in the capital at risk.

But when he was brought into the palace just now, there were very few corpses seen along the way.

So when the eldest princess said she would not kill innocent people, he believed it.

Therefore, I felt a little sadder in my heart.

The doctor was kind-hearted and had superb medical skills, but he could not save the eldest princess who was protecting her family and country.

"If it's just Seven Days Broken Heart Powder, I might still have a way to make an antidote." The old doctor retracted his hand tremblingly, with a guilty and self-blame look on his face, "It's just that there is a silk-twisting poison added to Broken Heart Powder, which will kill the toxins like Threads are generally wrapped around the internal organs. As the red thread gradually spreads to the whole body, I...I can't do anything..."

Feng Yaoguang's feet were unsteady, and his body swayed imperceptibly. Then his eyes turned red and he shouted: "If you have no other way, just find a way! There are thousands of medicinal materials in the world, is there no medicine that can detoxify this poison?! "

"Fluttering light." Yan Donghuang coughed lightly, bloodshot eyes spreading from the corner of his mouth, "Don't embarrass the doctor."

Feng Yaoguang clenched his hands tightly, his eyes were horribly red: "Besides the antidote, is there any other way? For example, passing the poison to another person..."

Doctor Hao understood what he meant, but shook his head heavily.

Feng Yaoguang's face turned pale, and a sense of despair came over her face.

Yan Donghuang stood up and walked outside the palace, looking at the neatly lined up soldiers on the square. His voice was full of weakness and exhaustion: "I have been on the battlefield for many years, and my military management is strict. The soldiers under my command have never insulted the civilians, and have never put down any generals." Weapons against the defenseless."

Prime Minister Pei was silent, and so was Taifu Qi.

At the moment, they didn't know how to react except silence.

"I have always believed that death is not terrible. Soldiers will always be wrapped in horse leather. They must die a worthy death."

"The previous emperor fought on the battlefield, and after he ascended the throne, he went on several personal expeditions to quell civil strife and stabilize the country. This has always been the goal of this palace. I want to be like my father."

"But it's so ironic."

"I did not die on the battlefield, but in the hands of the person I trusted most."

"The person I supported with my own hands was the one who killed me with my own hands."

Prime Minister Pei and Taifu Qi lowered their eyes, both feeling sad and ironic.

The emperor has been busy eradicating dissidents since he ascended the throne, and killed four princes in less than three years.

The ministers tried to persuade him, but he didn't listen at all.

They thought that the emperor was just afraid of his brothers, but they didn't expect that he was also afraid of the eldest princess. In the end, he kicked the iron plate and ruined his own empire.

Is this self-inflicted?

"Prime Minister Pei, Taifu Qi, Shangshu Yuan." Yan Donghuang turned his head and glanced at Prime Minister Pei's face, looking at Taifu Qi and the Minister of Rites, "I will depose the emperor today and stand on my own feet. Let the historian record what happened tonight truthfully. ”

"The eldest princess!" Prime Minister Pei's expression changed, "I am saddened by what happened to the eldest princess, but... there has never been a precedent in the history of the Yong Dynasty for a princess to become the emperor."

"Please, Princess, think again!"

The Minister of Etiquette knelt down and said, "I beg the eldest princess to think again!"

"What are you thinking twice about?" Feng Yaoguang's gaze was as sharp and ruthless as an ice knife, "It's okay for the eldest princess to go to the battlefield to protect her family and country, but not to establish herself as emperor? Were you so pedantic when the late emperor was in power? Today you are You have to agree if you agree, and you have to agree if you don’t agree!”

"The eldest princess doesn't want to go on a killing spree. Is it because she is merciful? This general won't do it!"

"Whoever disagrees will be killed by this general!"

"But...but the eldest princess has been poisoned. If there is no antidote..." Prime Minister Pei was worried. "Something happened to the new emperor just after he ascended the throne. The Yong Dynasty will immediately fall into civil strife. I ask the eldest princess to understand my concerns."

The Minister of Rites said weakly: "King An is the only remaining bloodline among the sons of the late emperor. He has always been close to the eldest princess. I think...I think it is most suitable for Prince An to succeed to the throne."

Yan Donghuang shook his head. Severe pain swept through his limbs and bones, eroding his flesh and bones like a cold.

Her face was completely white, and cold sweat was glistening on her forehead: "I, my mind has been made up."

The beating with the cane continued at the steps of the palace, and Sheng Jing'an's screams became weaker and weaker, almost to the point where there was more air coming out and less air coming in.

The old lady fainted several times and screamed for mercy several times, but in the end she could only watch her son suffer in pain under the imperial staff, and finally breathed her last.

The fish belly white gradually appears in the east.

Another night is coming to an end.

Yan Donghuang's lips turned white and he looked up at the gray sky: "Today is the first day of my ascension to the throne. You don't need to persuade me. Just treat it as your favor and let me live the Queen's addiction before I die. No. Okay?"

Prime Minister Pei moved his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

He turned to look at Taifu Qi.

Teacher Qi is old, he was the teacher of the previous emperor, and a veteran of three dynasties.

He looked at Yan Donghuang's body trembling slightly under the torture of the poison, as if he had guessed her intention, and asked: "Will the princess make all the arrangements?"

Yan Donghuang nodded: "Yes."

Prime Minister Pei was about to speak when a chaotic sound of footsteps sounded outside the Fengtian Gate: "Doctor Wen is here."
