Chapter 1055: Could He Not Be Dead?

ain some strength.When she finally woke up, she glared at Mo Yunjing beside her, huffing, "Tell me the truth, did you ask Yunliu to buy yesterday's pastries"For God's sake, if he dares to say that, sh...After being so ruthlessly exposed by Mo Yunjing, An Xuetang blinked her seemingly innocent eyes and said, "I'm hungry."

So is it still too late to change the subject

At this moment, all she wanted was to change the subject and not eat any more spicy noodles.

However, she still had some dissatisfaction with this man's control over her. After all, the spicy noodles she ate weren't made with unclean things, and the oil used in the palace was of good quality. She didn't think that even if she ate them every day, there would be any problems.

She was just incredibly hungry and craved spicy food.

Because she craved spicy food, she remembered her love for spicy noodles from the past and instructed the cook to make them.

After it was made, not only did she love to eat it, but Ning'er and the others, as well as Yunliu and the rest, also loved it very much.

As expected, Mo Yunjing chuckled lightly when he heard her say she was hungry and asked, "Where do you want to eat"

An Xuetang looked thoughtfully at the Phoenix Cry on the bed, her voice carrying a hint of dejection. "Just here, it allows Big Brother to see how delicious our food is. Let's see if he still doesn't want to get up. Anyway, since he won't get out of bed, he can only keep eating bland gruel."

Her older brother had been lying in bed for far too long. She was becoming increasingly anxious. If she could figure out what was wrong with his body, perhaps she could find a way to cure him. But despite reading so many medical books, she couldn't find any answers.

Mò Yúnjǐng knew that Fèngmíng was finding this whole situation difficult, so she simply patted her head and then ordered someone to bring the food.

After the two had finished their meal, Yunliu only then knocked on the door and said, “My lord, the Emperor summons you urgently.”

Mo Yunjing narrowed his eyes slightly, "What happened"

"From what the old man said, it seems the Emperor has been poisoned."

"……" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Mo Yunjing and An Xuetang looked at each other, the emperor was poisoned

All sorts of things that happened in the palace previously had stopped for some time following Yun Rui's incident.

This also happens to explain that all the tortures the emperor suffered before were orchestrated by Yun Rui.

Now that the mastermind, Yun Rui Shi, is gone, how could the Emperor still be poisoned

Is it that the emperor wanted to continue feigning weakness and deliberately fabricated an excuse, or did the emperor really get poisoned

If it is really poisoning, who would have poisoned the emperor this time

Or... could it be that Yunrui Shi never died after all

Mo Yunjing and An Xue Tang both thought of this possibility at the same time, and the two had to take it seriously.

"Ajing, are you going to enter the palace and see for yourself"

Mo Yunjing nodded faintly, "Well, rest well. I'll be back as soon as possible."

"Okay, be careful."

Mo Yun Jing rose to his feet, then suddenly thought of something and bent down again, gently pecking at An Xue Tang's lips.

Yun Li sensed the awkwardness and lowered his head, completely unsure whether he should leave first.

Normally, when the prince wanted him to go out, he would just give a look. But this time there wasn't even an indication, so he didn't dare to move rashly.

The couple beside him had no idea what was going on in his mind. After Mo Yunjing let go, An Xuetang raised the corners of her mouth and smiled. She reached out and touched his handsome face, taking the initiative to alleviate his worries:

"Don't worry, I'll stay home quietly until you get back. I won't go anywhere."

Yun Rui shi's martial arts are truly formidable. If he is really alive and has returned to the capital, then as someone with no inner strength and who is pregnant, she would only become a burden to everyone once found by Yun Rui shi, holding them back.

So, Mo Yun Jing wanted to go into the palace to investigate on one hand, but was afraid that if he left, he would find out that it was a ploy to lure the tiger away from the mountain.

It was precisely because she understood his thoughts that An Xuetang took the initiative to make a promise to him.

Instead of feeling much satisfaction towards her understanding, Mo Yunjing would always find himself remembering the scenes they shared in Ling Shui Village whenever she acted this way.

Back then, she was completely unaware of the danger she was in. Though her life was simple and modest, the joy on her face was genuine.

Now…

Mo Yunjing wasn't sure if he regretted dragging her into this treacherous and competitive world, but he did feel heartbroken for her. He also truly couldn't bear to let her go.

Looking at Mo Yunjing's strange eyes, An Xuetang blinked and smiled curiously, "A-Jing, why are you looking at me like that What's wrong"

Mo Yunjing chuckled and shook his head slightly, "It's nothing, I'll be back soon."

"Hmm."

……

Mo Yunjing left Yunliu and the dark guards at the manor, and even Shiyi, who usually followed him, was not allowed to come.

Yunliu and the others naturally knew that the current King of Beijang was a formidable martial artist, far surpassing ordinary people. It would be difficult for most to even get close to him, let alone defeat him.

Moreover, the two of them also knew about the emperor's poisoning, and it was highly likely that this was a ploy to lure the tiger away from the mountain. Therefore, after a moment's hesitation, they obediently followed the order and stayed in Jingtang Garden.

Mo Yunjing entered the palace alone.

As soon as the eunuch at the palace gate saw Mo Yunjing, he let out a sigh of relief and quickly strode forward two steps, "Slave greets King Beijang."

Mo Yunjing glanced at him indifferently, nodded slightly, and then continued walking inside.

The father-in-law immediately jogged to catch up, slightly out of breath, and said, "King of the Northern Border, Your Majesty is in Empress Hua's palace."

Mo Yunjing, expressionless, obtained the emperor's precise location. He immediately used his light skills to head towards Huaduoer's palace.

When the old man saw that Mo Yunjing vanished in an instant, his face changed drastically. He helplessly patted his thigh, "Oh no, oh no, this is going to be a disaster."

……

Mo Yunjing arrived at Huadao'er’s palace in the blink of an eye. After all, he wasn't a stranger to this place; he had met the emperor here before. So, he went straight to the sleeping chamber without giving the eunuchs and maids at the door a chance to react. With a gentle wave of his hand, the door swung open immediately.

But at this very moment, the emperor was lying in bed playing with flowers, looking full of life and vigor, nowhere like a poisoned man.

Seeing this scene, Mo Yunjing understood everything. His father had pretended to be ill and deceived him.

Mo Yunjing's use of internal force to fling open the door made such a big commotion that both the Emperor and Huaduo were startled.

The little flower took the opportunity to hide under the covers. She knew the emperor wanted to feign illness to deceive Mo Yunjing. Though she had deliberately tempted the emperor, making him unable to control himself, otherwise, given his current condition, he might very well have been able to fool Mo Yunjing.

After all, in order to deceive Mo Yunjing, the emperor even had the imperial physician give him a potion that made him look extremely pale. Therefore, at this moment, if it weren't for his movements just now, no one could tell that he was faking illness.

The Emperor's heart skipped a beat the moment he saw Mo Yun Jing, but being someone who had weathered many storms, he quickly regained his composure.

He feigned a few weak coughs and said to Mo Yunjing, "Jing'er, you're finally here."ly relax.A few hours ago, Ning'er came back to the palace and told me about the situation. She said that Mo Yunchen's people had contacted Xiao Hong and even successfully deceived her. She was worried...
