Chapter 246: Fusu Goes, Ying Zheng Suspects! (Please subscribe and support)

~6 min read 1,200 words

After Huhai left Ying Zheng's sleeping quarters, he did not choose to return to his own sleeping quarters.

Instead, he took a detour and walked directly toward Fusu's location.

"Are you sure you have already put the medicine into his tea?"

On the way, Huhai asked the eunuch behind him.

"Imperial Prince, don't worry."

"The medicine you gave me, I have all put into the tea."

The eunuch was exceptionally certain.

Confirming that the matter was foolproof, a smile curled on the corner of Huhai's mouth.

If that old thing knew that he died of severe poison because of Fusu's arrival,

would he regret it?

……

The raindrops outside the window hit the eaves with a tick-tock sound.

The dim light seemed to sway with the cold wind outside.

Fusu put away the book in his hand; the weather was getting colder and colder now.

Having only read for a short while, his hands were already frozen red.

Just as he was about to extinguish the lamp and go to sleep, he heard movement outside the house.

"Imperial Prince."

The little eunuch's voice sounded outside.

"What is it?"

Fusu stopped his movements and then turned to look outside the door.

"Imperial Prince Huhai has come."

The little eunuch said.

Fusu's brows immediately furrowed; why would Huhai come to him in the middle of the night?

He thought about it, but the movements in his hands were not slow, putting his clothes back on.

Opening the door, the little eunuch stood at the door.

"Let's go, let's go see."

Fusu strode toward the front courtyard.

In the middle of the night, he did not know what Huhai had come to find him for.

In the front hall,

even with the candles lit, it still could not illuminate the entire room.

Under the pitch-black night outside, the entire room also appeared exceptionally dim.

"Why so slow?"

Huhai complained casually.

"In the middle of the night, what are you doing here?"

As soon as Fusu walked in, he heard Huhai's complaint.

His expression was also somewhat ugly.

After all, coming in the middle of the night, unless there was an urgent matter, no one would be happy.

"I didn't know that Elder Brother could still sleep."

Seeing Fusu, the sneer on Huhai's face remained.

Subsequently, he spoke.

Fusu's brows immediately furrowed.

"If you came here just to say this, then you can leave now."

He really did not have time to play with this kid.

"I really feel some heartache for Father Emperor."

"He was angered into illness by you, and now all the imperial physicians have been called over, yet you can still sleep."

Huhai continued.

Hearing Huhai's words, Fusu's expression immediately changed.

"What exactly happened?"

"How is Father Emperor?"

He hurriedly asked two questions.

"Father Emperor called all the imperial physicians over overnight."

"Isn't it because of the things you did some time ago that angered Father Emperor into illness?"

Huhai said deliberately.

He knew Fusu valued filial piety.

If he knew that Ying Zheng was ill because of him, Fusu would certainly be anxious.

Huhai slowly walked forward.

When he got close to Fusu, he smelled that faint, heavy, and elegant fragrance.

Upon smelling this fragrance, a smile appeared in Huhai's eyes.

He really admired Donghuang Taiyi for being able to find this kind of poison.

Chenmu incense was not an ordinary spice.

First of all, the acquisition of raw materials was extremely difficult and required a lot of time.

The substance that could react with Chenmu incense to produce severe poison is likely rare in this world.

Fusu, oh Fusu.

If you knew that Father Emperor died suddenly because of your own incense,

I fear you would die to apologize.

"This is impossible."

Fusu retorted subconsciously, but his eyes flickered non-stop.

When he saw Ying Zheng earlier, Ying Zheng's expression was somewhat not good.

So Fusu did not doubt the truthfulness of Huhai's words at all.

"Do I have a need to lie to you? Have someone go out and inquire now to see where these imperial physicians are."

A sneer hung on the corner of Huhai's mouth.

This smile somewhat stung Fusu's eyes.

He felt that the smile on Huhai's face was as if a slap had been heavily slapped on his own face.

If it weren't for himself, how could his Father Emperor be angered into illness?

Thinking of this, Fusu did not even have the mood to talk to Huhai.

He turned his head directly and walked toward the outside with hurried steps.

Seeing the anxiety and hurried steps on Fusu's face, the smile on Huhai's face became even more obvious.

Go, go.

The more hurried your steps, the closer Ying Zheng's death date is.

The cold wind blew on his body.

It was as if it were a knife, scraping across his body one knife at a time…

But at this moment, Fusu did not care about these at all.

With hurried steps, he ran toward Ying Zheng's sleeping quarters.

………

In Ying Zheng's sleeping quarters.

The imperial physician had also finished checking the little eunuch's physical condition.

"Reporting to Your Majesty."

"Currently, there are no problems."

Having checked several times, the imperial physician's brows furrowed.

Because he did not check any problems at all.

But he had heard the words of several lords with his own ears.

It was impossible to have only put in a medicine that had no effect.

After the imperial physician finished speaking, the brows of the others furrowed.

Even Ying Zheng's expression, which had been exposed due to Huhai's unfilial behavior, gradually eased a bit.

Perhaps,

Huhai was not trying to drug him.

Ying Mo's brows also furrowed.

He had seen with his own eyes that eunuch put medicine in the teapot.

He had seen the private little actions between that eunuch and Huhai.

To say that Huhai did not do anything in this, he really did not believe it.

Ying Mo's gaze shifted back to the pot of tea.

After pouring a cup of tea, he examined it carefully.

The tea fragrance came with the heat, but there was no other strange smell.

The tea soup was clear, without any sediment produced by adding other things.

Everyone slowly quieted down following Ying Mo's movements.

They were waiting for Ying Mo to give the final result.

Just then, the eunuch outside the door suddenly said.

"Your Majesty, Imperial Prince Fusu has come."

Everyone's gaze shifted to the outside.

Ying Zheng's gaze also began to flicker.

You Ling snapped his fingers and then immediately disappeared from where he was.

Seeing You Ling's movement, Ying Zheng immediately understood his meaning.

"Let him in."

Ying Zheng's expression was somewhat unfathomable, and one could not tell his mood at this moment.

Zhang Han stood in front of Ying Zheng again, but his heart was beating like a drum.

First Imperial Prince Huhai, then Imperial Prince Fusu.

Could it be that both Imperial Princes were involved with the people behind the scenes?

If both Imperial Princes participated in the plan behind the scenes, intending to harm His Majesty,

then who should the future of the entire Great Qin be handed to?

……
