Chapter 1559: Chapter 1559: Another Two Wronged Spirits
“There is no need for me at that place, I have sent imperial physicians to treat Great-Great-Uncle’s illness. Although the poison was neutralized, his body truly needs to be slowly nursed back to health,”
Eldest Brother Yan said with concern.
This poisoning incident had inflicted fatal damage on Prince You. The imperial physicians even a.s.serted that given Prince You’s condition, not even a Great Immortal could extend his life by more than a few years.
“Younger sister-in-law, could you help big brother to take a look? Great-Great-Uncle he…”
“Big brother, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but a person’s endurance always has its limits. At Prince You’s age, he has already reached these limits. Being able to ensure he lives a few more years is already quite fortunate,”
An Jiuyue clearly knew what he wanted to say and directly interrupted him.
“If you really want to drag him through this, you know what I mean,”
Upon hearing this, Eldest Brother Yan’s eyes darkened.
He had never personally experienced the pain of someone clinging to a thread of life, but he had seen it.
“I will refine some medicine tomorrow, enough to improve Prince You’s health over the next few years,” An Jiuyue added.
“Thank you, younger sister-in-law.”
Eldest Brother Yan immediately sighed in relief and thanked An Jiuyue.
Today the poison might have been neutralized, but as An Jiuyue said, one’s foundation has been utterly shaken.
“How is the Emperor doing?”
Even when referring to him as the Emperor, his complexion still grew darker, a fierceness hidden in his eyes, and a murderous impulse rose in his heart.
“The poison has been administered, let him have a taste of it first,” Qian Jiyun said.
“Very well.”
Eldest Brother Yan nodded.
He liked to use poison, didn’t he? Then let him experience the agony of being poisoned as well.
“Did he confess anything?”
“Such a stubborn old man, but tough. If he doesn’t taste hardship, how could he possibly confess anything?” Qian Jiyun said with a smile.
However, after midnight, they would know. He was actually curious to see if the old emperor’s endurance was so great that he wouldn’t say a word.
“Have there been any other incidents?”
“I have just received news there were two more wrongful spirits added in the capital,” Eldest Brother Yan said.
Upon hearing this, both Qian Jiyun and An Jiuyue’s expressions turned unsightly.
The old emperor had already been imprisoned, yet he was still able to cause so much trouble. Could it be that he really had to end up like An Jiuyue suggested, playing the fool?
“It wasn’t timely, but I managed to save many; there won’t be a complete loss of lineage,” Eldest Brother Yan added.
“Huh!”
An Jiuyue let out a deep sigh.
“Just wait a bit longer. If we can’t get anything out of him, we’ll use the Truth Elixir directly,” she suggested.
“Alright.”
Qian Jiyun complied, raising his hand to lightly pat An Jiuyue on the back of her head.
“Younger sister-in-law, do you have the Truth Elixir?” Eldest Brother Yan’s eyes lit up upon hearing this.
If they had that, they could simply use it on the person directly, right? He had forgotten that they had used the Truth Elixir at the Luoyang-Shao Residence before.
“Is it the same one that was administered to the Luoyang-Shao Residence? Then let’s use it on him,”
“Big brother, you’re thinking too simply. The Truth Elixir can’t be used on just anybody,” An Jiuyue shook her head.
“The Luoyang-Shao family head practices martial arts and is robust. Using the Truth Elixir on him will not cause any side effects. However, having been pampered and cherished for so long, if the Truth Elixir is used on the old emperor, once the medicinal effects pa.s.s, nine times out of ten he will become an idiot,”
“Er…”
Eldest Brother Yan was also choked by this revelation.
Becoming an idiot, he really couldn’t explain that to his ministers. Although he already had the edict in his hands, in the end, the old emperor had to make an appearance.
