Chapter 2051: The Wolf King 46
“Go and inform the emperor that Fourth Prince is dying!”
The entire study room was in chaos, some people rushed to the palace to report, and some people went to see Murong Qing.
Murong Qing gradually closed his eyes and lay on the cold ground…
***
Not far from the study room, Liu Qingqing anxiously walked back and forth, feeling a little uneasy. Her heart beat faster as if something was about to happen.
‘Will Fourth Prince drink the soup?
‘Will he find out that I made the soup for him?’
Just as Liu Qingqing was getting very anxious, a voice outside that was even more anxious than she felt came, bringing earth-shattering news.
“Fourth Prince is in trouble! He has been poisoned! He’s dying”
‘What?’
Liu Qingqing panicked, her legs went weak, and she almost fell to the ground.
‘What do you mean Fourth Prince has been poisoned?’
If someone discovered that she had given the soup to Fourth Prince, she would be doomed.
Fourth Prince was poisoned and needed an antidote.
However, why did everyone say he was dying?
Liu Qingqing held on to a tree to stabilize her body. She did not have time to think about it and hurriedly ran toward the prince’s room.
She saw many servants and guards outside the room from a distance, and all of them looked panicked.
The sense of fear came up her chest again, causing her body to tremble a little.
She stumbled forward and raised her hand to push open the door.
She then saw Murong Qing lying on the bed with a pale face.
An elder sat next to Murong Qing, and he was the physician of Fourth Prince’s manor, who had rushed over after hearing the news that the prince was unconscious. He frowned, and his face was a bit pale.
A moment later, he stood up and closed his eyes in grief and only opened them after a long time.
“Go and tell the emperor and the empress that… The prince has been poisoned and is dying.”
‘Poisoned?’
Liu Qingqing almost collapsed to the ground; her gaze sad and painful as she looked at the silent young man on the bed.
She felt like a sword stabbed her heart fiercely… Painful and regretful.
‘Sister Gu said the medicine would not harm him. But… Has it poisoned him?
‘No! Impossible!
‘I don’t believe it!’
The emperor and the empress hurried over. They went into the room and saw the unconscious Murong Qing; they suddenly became furious. “What is going on with Qing’er?”
The elder knelt on the ground. “Emperor, please forgive me; the prince is poisoned. I can’t help him…”
‘Poisoned…’
This word made the emperor almost collapse to the ground; fortunately, the empress held him up in time.
He stood up straight, his forehead veins jumped, and his face was full of anger. “Investigate who has poisoned Qing’er!”
After hearing these words, Liu Qingqing’s face grew paler. She trembled and panicked.
If the emperor found out that Murong Qing became this way after he drank her soup…
‘No, it has nothing to do with me!
‘That medicine was from Sister Gu… I just want to be his woman.’
The empress looked at Liu Qingqing and frowned.
Liu Qingqing was good at everything but not at pretending. Fortunately, the emperor was too busy with Qing’er now and did not notice her expression. Otherwise, she might have been suspected of her actions.
