His Rui

The Emperor, Zhao Wang Lei, ordered the Eunuch Wang coldly as he followed the Empress who had already stepped down from the throne and now was walking towards the first Prince\'s seats.

"Father Emperor…"

Zhao Zhuang Chen whispered as soon as he saw his father who looked at him and patted his shoulder.

"We have ordered Eunuch Wang to bring the best Imperial Physician here."

Zhao Zhuang Chen\'s face relaxed a little as he looked at Zhao Bo Jing\'s unconscious face.

"The Imperial son is grateful to Father Emperor.."

He bowed a little and moved his eyes back to the little Prince.

Zhao Bo Jing…his five-year-old son has been one of the reasons why he was chosen as the Crown Prince of Xin.

No one out if his concubines could ever bore him a son. In the beginning, Zhao Zhang Wei was younger than him so he didn\'t pay much attention to it. However, when Zhao Zhang Wei took his first concubine in Xinhe Palace, since then he had been worried about this matter.

Finally, after three years of his marriage with Yun Weilan, he got a son and hence was relieved. Although Zhao Bo Jing had been ill in the past two years as long as he hid it and got him treated secretly, his position was always safe.? Since he had a son to declare him as his heir but Zhao Zhang Wei didn\'t, that\'s why he never took Zhao Zhang Wei as his competitor.

Now looking at his son\'s unconscious form, Zhao Zhuang Chen suddenly had a very bad premonition inside his heart.

The Imperial Physician came soon.

Zhao Zhuang Chen hurriedly ordered people to make space for the Physician.

Zhao Zhang Wei who had been standing just a few steps away from the whole scene shook his head with a sigh as he saw the black face of Zhao Zhuang Chen while YI Huqing was looking at the young child with worried eyes.

She stepped forward and consoled Yun Weilan while telling her to leave Zhao Bo Jing and lay him down so that the Physician could check his pulse.

The old and experienced Physician rubbed his beard with a frown on his wrinkled forehead as he took Zhao Bo Jing\'s pulse.

Seeing a serious and concentrated expression on his face, Yun Weilan covered her mouth to muffle her sobs so that she wouldn\'t disturb the old Physician.

A moment later, he took the foam on his fingers and looked at it seriously.

After that, he stood up from beside Zhao Bo Jing and bowed in front of the Emperor.

"Your Majesty, the Prince has been poisoned. There is movement in the pulse of the little Prince but very faint. The Prince can …stop breathing at any moment."

Gasps were heard in the banquet hall at the decoration made by Imperial Physician.

Zhao Wang Lei\'s face was cold.

Yun Weilan\'s eyes went wide and Zhao Zhuang Chen\'s face went grimmer.

Empress Qin Wenya looked at her grandson with a frown.

"Does Physician Xu have any cure for the poison?"

She asked the Imperial Physician

The old physician lowered his head more and shook it.

"Your Majesty, this servant is incompetent. This servant couldn\'t recognize the little Prince has been fed. However, I can still try one method. This one has a cure that is used for every other poison but cannot guarantee whether it would be able to save the young Prince\'s life or not."

"Then just do it, at least there is a chance to save him."

Zhao Zhuang Chen\'s answer came without any hesitation.

There was hesitation on the old Physician\'s face as he looked at Zhao Zhuang Chen and continued

"Your Highness, if the method didn\'t work then it would enhance the poison spreading in the Prince\'s body and hence….decreasing the little time he already has. Does Your Highness still want this servant to proceed with that method only?"

This time, hesitation flashed through Zhao Zhuang Chen\'s eyes as he looked at his young son\'s pale face.

"No…wangye, we shall look for some other physician…Wangye, my Bo Jing…please save him."

Yun Weilan staggered to Zhao Zhuang Chen and sobbed non-stop.

Zhao Zhuang Chen didn\'t even glance at her. His lips were pressed in a thin line as he uttered grimly.

"Wang Fei must know that Imperial Physician Xu is the most capable physician in the Imperial Palace. Where shall we find any physician who is more capable than Imperial Physician Xu, that too, when Bo Jung doesn\'t have much time."

With these words, Zhao Zhuang Chen looked at Imperial Physician Xu and said without any expression on his face.

"Proceed with your cure, Physician Xu."

"Your Highness."

Imperial Physician Xu bowed his head and moved to make the arrangements for the cure.

Yun Weilan\'s face paled at these words and she felt her legs softening as she slid down to the floor with her hands covering her mouth.

"Your Highness, please …what if it didn\'t work….this wangfei begs you…"

She cried as she grabbed Zhao Zhuang Chen\'s sleeve.

When Zhao Zhuang Chen didn\'t even look at her she glanced around and crawled in front of the Emperor.

"Your Majesty, a mother is begging you…there must be something else that can be done…but please don\'t allow something like this."

Zhao Wang Lei indifferently glanced at Yun Weilan but didn\'t say anything. Qin Wenya saw this and she admonished Yun Weilanfor her behavior.

"Princess Consort should compose herself. Until now Imperial Physician Xu hadn\'t announced anything bad so there is no reason for crying like this."

Yun Weilan looked at the Empress with an incredulous expression on her face.

She was being asked to compose herself when her child was swinging on the brink of death…when they are just increasing the chances of his death.

How was she supposed to do this?
