"Hey, wait!" Yumian shouted anxiously," Don't do this, do you hear me?"”

However, Yumian's voice did not sound out in the space again.

Therefore, Yumian could only watch helplessly as the original "Yumian" sent Chenke out with the same smile as her.

After Chen Ke walked out of the door, she pondered for a moment and frowned. Although Yumian's actions and words today were the same as usual, she kept feeling that something was wrong.

Jiang Xin, who had been serving him, immediately noticed his strange behavior. He quickly bent down and asked,"Your Majesty, what's wrong?"

After a moment of silence, Chen Ke slowly said,""Did you notice anything different about Lady Jade today?”

Jiang Xin immediately shook his head and smiled as he flattered,"But today, Lady Jade is still so fresh and beautiful.”

Seeing Jiang Xin's expression, Chen Ke relaxed her furrowed brows and thought that perhaps she had really thought too much today.

After 'Yumian' dismissed all the people in the bedchamber, the corners of her mouth curled up into a contemptuous smile. Then, she began to search for something in the bedchamber. After a while, she opened the jewelry box that she had brought into the palace and opened the hidden box inside. She found that the poison that she had brought into the palace was still there.

Instantly, a happy smile appeared on his face.

Emperor, tonight is the day you die.

In fact,"Yumian" had never left her body. Instead, she had been watching everything in the space that Yumian was in. Seeing that the thief who occupied her body was in love with the emperor,"Yumian", who originally wanted to take back her body, wanted to beat him at his own game. He would first learn all of Yumian's actions and words in that space, and wait for Lord Cheng Yin to send a letter for him to take action. Then, he would take back his body and act.

Indeed, the heavens paid off. Everything went according to her expectations.

Chenke, I will definitely kill you to avenge my father's death and repay Lord Cheng Yin for raising me.

In the afternoon,"Yumian" went into the kitchen to prepare dinner for Chenke.

This action was also something that the thief who possessed her body often did, so it did not attract anyone's suspicion.

After "Yumian" finished preparing dinner, she instructed the palace servants to bring the dinner into the side hall of the Hall of Diligent Government and went to see Chenke.

Eccentric, aren't you tired?" " Yumian " imitated that Yumian's words and actions. She went to the Emperor's side and took the memorial from his hand while smiling.

Seeing the Emperor raise his head,'Yumian' smiled and pulled up Chen Ke who was sitting.""I've made a lot of things you like to eat tonight, so let's go for dinner.”

Chen Ke suppressed the strange feeling in her heart and slowly stood up with Yu Mian's strength to follow her to the side hall.

As soon as she entered, Chen Ke saw a table full of delicious dishes.

"Why are you cooking so many dishes today?" Chen Ke asked in confusion.

One had to know that although Yumian could cook normally, she would always nag about being thrifty by his side. The food that the two of them could eat was enough, and there was no need for too much. However, he had done so much today. As expected, there was something wrong with Yumian today.

Seeing the Emperor's expression,'Yumian's' heart thumped. She immediately explained,""Yesterday, didn't you say that you've finally overthrown the Right Prime Minister? Today, they had cooked so many dishes to celebrate.”

Chen Ke didn't reply. She was silent and believed her words.

'Yumian' smiled gently as she prepared the dishes for the Emperor. She looked at him with anticipation and said,""Ke, quickly eat. Tonight is my work of confidence."

After saying that, he turned around and put the food into his bowl with a smile. The hatred in her eyes was almost completely exposed the moment she turned her head, but she immediately suppressed it.

Yu Mian watched all of this anxiously in her space. She watched as Chen Ke slowly put the poisonous dish into her mouth, chewed it, and spat it out. Yumian roared loudly in the space, wanting to transmit her voice outside, but no one could hear her.

Instantly, tears streamed down Yumian's face.

She hated herself for being powerless. She couldn't save the person she loved the most and could only watch helplessly as he was harmed!

The atmosphere in the side hall was as " warm " as usual. Finally, he did not want to hide his true nature. He was excited and happy because he had taken revenge.

Hence, she stood up from her seat and started laughing.

The surrounding palace servants looked at her as if they were looking at a lunatic. Chen Ke, who had been feeling that something was wrong with her, frowned again.

"Emperor, tonight is the day you die.”"Yumian" laughed wildly as she stared at the Emperor and said with hatred.

Chen Ke didn't say anything. She looked at the person in front of her with a deep expression, and a storm gathered in her eyes. He stood up and grabbed her neck, saying coldly,""Tell me, where is Yumian?"

'Yumian' looked at the Emperor mockingly and said with a smile from the corner of her eyes,""I am. Emperor, if you don't fall in love with me, how can I successfully poison you?”

As soon as she finished speaking, Chen Ke felt a fishy smell coming out of her throat. Gradually, Chen Ke felt dizzy and weak. Unknowingly, Chen Ke let go of the hand that was holding onto Yumian and fell back weakly.

"Your Majesty." Jiang Xin was horrified to see Chen Ke fall to the ground. He looked at the blood that kept flowing out of the corner of his mouth in disbelief.

The surrounding palace servants were all afraid when they saw this. They could not believe what was happening in front of them.

The Emperor's favorite concubine actually tried to assassinate the Emperor!

"Quickly call the Imperial Physician." Jiang Xin, who immediately came back to his senses, ran to Chen Ke's side and shouted at the top of his lungs.

At this moment, the palace servants were startled awake. He began to run around in panic to call the imperial physician.

The noisy palace was mixed with the joyful and crazy laughter of "Yumian", making everything sound so chaotic.

Li Hui's face turned pale when she heard the news. The teacup in her hand fell to the ground.

"Empress Dowager." Biyue shouted worriedly.

Li Hui closed her eyes tightly and only opened them slowly after a while. Although her face was still pale, she had regained her composure.

Li Hui's eyes were filled with a bloodthirsty light. She called the guard over and instructed in a deep voice,"Throw that woman into prison.”

Then, he turned to Biyue and said,"Help aijia to the emperor."”

Hearing this, Biyue stepped forward and helped Li Hui up from her seat. The moment they touched, Biyue felt Li Hui's hand tremble slightly. In an instant, Biyue and Shameful Flower felt their hearts ache for this young miss that they had served since young.

Jiang Xin stood anxiously by the window and looked at Chen Ke, whose face had turned pale. "Imperial Physician Wang, how is the Emperor?" Jiang Xin hurriedly asked.”

Imperial Physician Wang's expression was solemn when he heard Jiang Xin's question. He sighed heavily and said weakly,""I've never seen this poison before, so…"

Immediately, the concubines in the palace began to cry. If the emperor passed away, then what awaited them was undoubtedly a tragic fate.

He was banished to the Imperial Mausoleum at his prime and could never come out. He could only spend the rest of his life there.

Li Hui, who had just entered the room, saw the sad atmosphere in the room and took half a step back unsteadily. Fortunately, Biyue and Shameful Flower immediately came forward to support her, stabilizing her.

"What happened?" Li Hui steadied her emotions and walked forward to ask the imperial physician.

When the imperial physician saw the Empress Dowager, he immediately knelt down and greeted her, saying fearfully,""Empress Dowager, please forgive me for being powerless.”

Hearing this, Li Hui's eyes instantly turned red. The concubines in the room cried their hearts out when they heard the imperial doctor's words.

Li Hui was annoyed by those voices and immediately said angrily,"The emperor is not dead yet! Why are you crying so hard?"

In an instant, all the concubines in the room stopped crying.

Li Hui was helped by Biyue and Shameful Flower to sit on a soft couch, waving her hand and ordering,"All of you, return to your own palaces. Don't cause trouble here.”

Seeing the Empress Dowager's gloomy face, the concubines did not dare to make any more noise and could only tactfully retreat.

Seeing that the room had become quiet, Li Hui said with a murderous look,""Bring that woman here.”

Not long after,'Yumian' was brought into the room by the guards.

'Yumian' looked smugly at Li Hui, who was sitting in front of her with a pale face. She chuckled and said,"May I know why the Empress Dowager has called me here?”

"How dare you be so arrogant?”When Shameful Flower saw that this woman did not have the slightest regret and instead had a smug expression, she was so angry that she gritted her teeth. Hence, he went forward and slapped her across the face as he said angrily.

"Yumian" was knocked to the ground by a great force. He was half-lying on the ground, covering his injured left cheek as he looked at Li Hui and the other two with a smile.

"Yumian, the Emperor has poured out his heart and lungs to you. Are you letting him down by doing this?" Li Hui said as she looked at "Yumian" with deep and dangerous eyes.

Unexpectedly,'Yumian' started giggling again. She said with a face full of pride and hatred,"Who told him to fall in love with me? He deserves it."

Li Hui suppressed the urge to cut the person in front of her into a thousand pieces. She closed her eyes and stopped looking at her. She said coldly,"Hand over the antidote."

'Yumian's' eyes flashed when she heard this. Finally, she had achieved her goal.

"Sure." 'Yumian' said," As long as you release Lord Cheng Yin, I'll give you the antidote three days later.”

This woman was actually a spy sent in by that traitor Cheng Yin. To think that her son was so kind to her and had placed his heart on her. If she had known earlier, she would not have let this scheming woman get close to her son.

Li Hui's eyes were bloodshot at this moment, and she wished she could go forward and cut her into pieces. But she couldn't, because her son was still in danger. The emperor of this country still needed treatment.

"Why three days later?" Li Hui looked at her gloomily.

'Yumian' laughed again."Because Lord Cheng Yin needs time to escape and make a comeback.”

"Aijia doesn't believe you. Who knows if the emperor will be able to survive three days after being poisoned by you.”Li Hui narrowed her eyes dangerously as she looked at 'Yumian' and said," If this widow listens to you, wouldn't she fall into the trap of you traitors if the Emperor can't be saved?”
