Chapter 390

The Emperor forced a smile before he stood up and said, During the Mid-Autumn Festival, all lovers should have fun and only return once you get drunk. I have other important matters, so I will go ahead.

After the Emperor finished speaking, he ignored the Empress and any others who were hesitant to speak. Then, he turned around and left with a flick of his sleeves.

Only the crowd remained, looking at each other.

Whats wrong?

After a while, the servants who went out to inquire about the news came back one after another as the circle of officials and concubines gradually spread the news. Just now, Prince An and Princess An didnt bid farewell before directly leaving the palace.

They also heard that the imperial guards were also alarmed. Its just that they didnt have the details as to what occurred, but they knew that it must have been big to be able to have the guards armed and ready.

After Mu Mingtang returned to the mansion, as soon as she returned to the familiar environment, she immediately ordered the servants, Quickly prepare some water and open the windows to ventilate the air. Someone please call the imperial physician immediately.

When Mu Mingtang said this, she hesitated slightly. She too, knew that it was best to invite the Little Taoist Priest to come over at this moment. However, if they did so, the outsiders would immediately figure out that the key to the detoxification of the Wu Yufei drug was none other than him.

Xie Xuanchen understood Mu Mingtangs concerns at a glance. His face was still pale at the moment, but it looked much better than when he was in the palace. Plus, his lips were starting to regain their colour from their once pale look, It doesnt matter, just call Li Zudong over.

Either way, after today, even if they didnt reveal the fact, the Emperor would definitely find out about the Little Taoist Priest. The truly critical period was the former stage of detoxification. Now that the general situation had been determined, there was no need to hide it anymore.

This time today, Xie Xuanchen and the Emperor undoubtedly had their facades completely torn apart. In the past, the Emperor and Xie Xuanchen were on guard against each other His Majesty wanted Xie Xuanchen to die whereas Xie Xuanchen always thought that the Emperor was the one pulling the strings. However, everything was still at the speculation stages and the two parties have not parted ways, which was why they could still retain their relations.h.i.+p as uncle and nephew on the surface.

But the incident from todays banquet celebration had confirmed all speculations.

The Emperor knew that Xie Xuanchen was no fool and Xie Xuanchen also knew that it was the Emperor who orchestrated the entire scene. After tearing away the appearance of the uncles kindness and the nephews filial piety, the parties on both sides revealed their sinister true colours.

Mu Mingtang thought about it, so she changed her order and said, Theres no need to call the imperial doctor. Have Taoist Li be summoned here.

The Little Taoist was used to visiting at strange times. After he came, he calmly felt Xie Xuanchens pulse, pressed it for a while before he couldnt maintain his expression anymore.

The Little Taoists calmness was swept away and his tone was very dignified, Whats the matter? Why did he suddenly come into contact with such a large dose of Wu Yufei today? Are you trying to die?

Mu Mingtang hesitated to speak, but finally she simply replied, It was an accident.
