You Yi threw the person on his back to the ground in disdain and turned to change.

Shen Yijia, who was ignored, was speechless.

Song Jingchen was satisfied.

Shen Yijia realized something and explained, “I’m just worried that he wouldn’t be able to complete the mission.”

Song Jingchen said, “I know.”

Shen Yijia thought to herself, “Why do you have such an expression when you already know?”

She jumped out of Song Jingchen’s arms and walked to the person lying motionless on the ground.

The person on the ground did not react.

“He’s not dead, is he?” Shen Yijia asked.

MO Yuan went forward to take his pulse. “Not yet. He must have fainted from the shock.”

Shen Yijia pursed her lips in disdain. She noticed something and was shocked. “The useless emperor has a wound on his face!”

Song Jingchen was stunned. Because he was drenched in the rain, the powder on the emperor’s face had been washed away, revealing five bright finger marks.

“It’s over. East Wind won’t be discovered, right? Won’t he be in danger?” They wanted to replace the useless emperor without anyone noticing.

Song Jingchen asked MO Yuan to make the same poison for East Wind to consume.

She made another mask according to the appearance of the useless emperor.

This way, even if the imperial physician went to take the pulse of the emperor disguised as East Wind, he wouldn’t discover any problems.

However, they did not add these five finger marks to the mask!

Even if he had asked East Wind to hide the antidote in his mouth in advance, there were so many guards in the palace. Once he was discovered, he wouldn’t be able to escape with the antidote, right?

Hence, just as You Yi returned after changing into clean clothes, Song Jingchen instructed him to take a trip to the palace.

You Yi thought, “I suspect that Young Master did it on purpose, but I don’t have any evidence.’

He used the same trick to knock out the people from Yangxin Hall and injured East Wind on the dragon bed.

Afterwards, the secret guards guarding Yangxin Hall each drank a bowl of strong tea to refresh themselves.

Eunuch Li and Eunuch Deng began to doubt their lives.

The next day, two major events happened in the imperial court. One was the imperial edict for Prince Xia’s punishment. The old prince would be beheaded in public three days later, and the entire Prince Xia’s residence would be turned into sinful slaves. The second thing was to pray for the emperor.

No one was surprised that the old prince had ended up like this. He had done so many treasonous things. Just as Shangguan Pu had said in the emperor’s ear, he would die sooner or later. He couldn’t escape death.

However, wouldn’t it be a little too ruthless to be beheaded in public? It wasn’t like no royal family member had committed a capital crime in the past.

It could be seen from how many sons the late emperor had, but only one of them survived in the end. However, for the sake of the royal family’s dignity, they would at most be sentenced to death by poison.

The emperor actually wanted to decapitate the old prince in public. It seemed that he really hated him for what he had done.

Everyone thought about this matter and got over it. After all, it had nothing to do with them.

There was something else that was directly related to them.

Empress Dowager Wei wanted to hold a blessing ceremony for the emperor in the Hidden Spirit Temple. They could only pray for the heavens to bless him.

Lord Jing, on the other hand, asked all the intermediate officials in the capital to copy a scripture and attend the ceremony.

It was understandable to pray for the emperor, but it was a little strange to place the old prince’s execution day on the same day as the prayer.

A minister asked if they should postpone the execution date for fear of offending Buddha.

In the end, since it was given by Shangguan Pu as an imperial edict by the emperor, he had no right to change it.

At the Song family residence.

Shen Yijia looked at Song Jingchen, who was sitting in front of the desk and seriously copying sutras. She was a little speechless. “Hubby, are you really copying?”

Song Jingchen glanced at her. “Miss Yuan has left. Are you bored again?”

Why did these words sound a little jealous?

First, it was You Yi, then Yuan Yuwan.

Shen Yijia was speechless. She smiled ingratiatingly and said, “I was afraid that she wouldn’t be used to living here.”

Yuan Yuwan stayed in the Song family’s house for two days. Xiao Qirui came every day, but Yuan Yuwan still didn’t see him.

This morning, she even suggested staying in a manor that her mother had left for her.

Shen Yijia could not stop her. Thinking that the capital might not be peaceful for the next few days, she asked MO Yuan to prepare the medicine and arranged for One Dot to send her and You Bai out of the city.

Song Jingchen lowered his head and continued copying the sutras, ignoring her. The prayer ceremony was tomorrow, and there were still some sutras to be copied.

Shen Yijia pursed her lips and sat down obediently. She waited for him to put down his brush before leaning over again.

“Hubby, what did Sister Yuwan ask You Bai to give you yesterday?”

She had gone to bed early last night and didn’t know about this at first. She had heard it from MO Yuan just now..
