The Miracle Doctor's Two-Faced Toddler

601 The Emperor Visits, Doting on His Grandchildren

In his hurry just now, Nangong Li did not have the time to carefully choose the poison. He only casually took a bottle of poison made of arsenic, but it was enough to scheme against people. The effect of arsenic was strong, and even an expert couldn’t be saved after drinking it, let alone a few little brats who were less than three years old.

Nangong Li smiled smugly. While he was thinking, a man in black jumped down from the roof beam and cupped his hands. “Your Highness!”

He had been in the room just now. The pageboy had entered in a hurry and he had nowhere to hide, so he jumped onto the roof beam.

Nangong Li had already sensed his existence the moment he entered the room. He was not too surprised to see him jump down. The man in black was Nangong Li’s trusted aide. He specially took care of some unpresentable things for Nangong Li. Even the Queen did not know of his existence.

The man in black looked in the direction where the pageboy had left and guessed, “Does Your Highness want to poison those children? They have a divine doctor by their side, and the daughter of the Helian family also knows the Qihuang technique. If they find out…”

Nangong Li smiled casually. “So what if they find out? He was sent by the Queen. The things were asked by the Queen to buy. How can they suspect me? Even if they know that I once came into contact with those things, I’m the Queen’s son. How could the Queen be able to remove herself entirely?”

The man in black said, “Your Highness, you mean… you want them to be suspicious of the Queen?”

Nangong Li mocked, “My mother treated that group of people with all her heart, but in exchange, they were suspicious. Do you think my mother will be disappointed in them?”

The man in black continued, “What if they don’t discover it and really let those children eat it?”

Nangong Li played with the medicine bottle in his hand and said, “If the children die, won’t my mother be even more defenseless? There are three lives between them. They have no choice but to fall out!”

The man in black thought about it and nodded. However, he thought of something and wondered, “What if… it enters someone else’s stomach?”

Nangong Li smiled. “Someone else? Which member of the Ziwei Pavilion isn’t one of theirs? Even the death of that burly maidservant is enough to make their hearts ache for a long time. Wouldn’t they think that this thing was originally supposed to be fed to the children? It was just that someone else ate it by accident. In that case, won’t they still suspect my mother and fall out with her?”

“Therefore, no matter how the situation develops, the Queen is destined to turn against them. Your Highness is really brilliant. I admire you!” The man in black said sincerely.

Nangong Li was not someone who would be confused by a few flattery. He waved his hand indifferently and said, “Alright, there’s no need to say these words. Did something happen in the dungeon when you came to look for me so late at night?”

“Something did happen, but…” At this point, the man in black smiled mysteriously.” It’s not a bad thing.”

“Oh?”

“Your Highness, please follow me.”

Nangong Li and the man in black went to the dungeon of the Queen Manor.

The dungeon of the Queen Manor was originally used to imprison the servants who had committed crimes. As prestige and power were established, the unruly servants were all chased away, leaving behind those who did things honestly, so this dungeon was left idle.

Ever since Nangong Li returned from the Ghost Clan, he had taken this dungeon for himself.

The ones imprisoned were not prisoners, but sacrificial soldiers brought back from the Ghost Clan’s forbidden ground.

Sacrificial soldiers originated from the Ghost Clan. Only the sacrificial soldiers of the Ghost Clan were the strongest sacrificial soldiers in the world. However, Nangong Li was not satisfied with this.

He stole the secret manual of the Ghost Clan to refine Asura and took Asura’s poisonous blood to nurture the new Asura in this dark dungeon.

There were a total of eighty to hundred sacrificial soldiers who had gone crazy. Less than five of them had really survived. Among the five of them, two of them had already lost their martial arts. The remaining three were more of a surprise.

Nangong Li looked at the sacrificial soldiers who were tied to the iron pillar and kept going crazy. He narrowed his eyes and said, “Soon, right?”

The man in black cupped his fists and said, “Yes, Your Highness. They have already entered the half-Asura realm. In ten days to half a month, they will become true Asuras.”

Nangong Li smiled slightly. “As expected, it’s indeed different with Asura blood.”

The thought of the three powerful Asuras made him extremely excited. The current Asura was not bad, but he was too difficult to control. He still had to coax him, but these three had been poisoned by Gu Elder Meng from the beginning.

They would obey him without reservation. If the first Asura was obedient, he would keep him. Otherwise, he would let the three of them kill him!

The man in black said excitedly, “Not only did they use the Asura blood, but they also ate the top medicinal pills of the State Preceptor Hall. They will be even stronger than the first Asura!”

Nangong Li finally revealed a satisfied smile. “Not bad.”

His mother was about to fall out with Ziwei Pavilion, and the new Asuras were about to be obtained. That group of people’s good days were over.

Mother, don’t blame me. I’m doing this for your future.

Just as Nangong Li was feeling smug about his scheme, an unexpected guest arrived at the manor.

The Emperor only decided to visit the little fellows after dinner. He had long wanted to come, but firstly, he was busy with work. Secondly, he was worried that his visit would be a little rude.

After all, it was the Queen Manor. If he said that he was here to see his daughter, he would be making his daughter proud. If he was here to see the little fellows, he was not related to them. If there was any relationship, it would be that his daughter had snatched the little fellows’ “grandfather”.

No matter how he looked at it, it was not suitable for him to visit. However, the Emperor paced around the imperial study, worried sick.

Eunuch Wang was a smart person. He saw through the Emperor’s thoughts and quickly said to him, “Your Majesty, I heard that the Prince Consort has woken up. Do you think… that we should go to the Queen Manor to interrogate the Prince Consort? The Prince Consort is seriously ill and shouldn’t be tired from the journey. I’ll have to trouble you to personally go and interrogate him about the truth back then.”

That’s right, he could interrogate the Prince Consort!

The Emperor agreed readily. That night, the Emperor brought Eunuch Wang into the carriage heading to the Queen Manor. The Emperor still remembered that the little fellows liked to eat the Fuyuanzi from the old shop, so he specially took a long detour to buy three small cups.

The people from the Queen Manor did not dare to stop the Emperor.

The Emperor was here to investigate the case, so he did not let anyone inform the Queen Manor. He was led by Eunuch Wang to the Ziwei Pavilion. When the Emperor arrived at the Ziwei Pavilion with the hot Fuyuanzi, he happened to bump into the pageboy who came to deliver candied hawthorn to the little black eggs.

The pageboy had already handed the candied hawthorn to the three little masters. Just as he was about to report to the Queen, he turned around and met the Emperor in brocade clothes. He knelt down in fear. “Your-your-your Your Majesty!”

The Emperor could not be bothered with him and strode past him. The pageboy broke out in cold sweat. Why was His Majesty here? There was no news at all!

The Emperor could not wait to see the little fellows. He quickened his pace and indeed saw a few little black eggs sitting on the threshold.

The little black eggs grabbed the sparkling candied hawthorn and opened their mouths, revealing their white teeth. They were about to bite down.

“Dabao, Er’bao, Xiaobao!” The Emperor walked over amiably. He still could not tell which was which, but the three of them were all there. It was not wrong to call them all.

The three of them looked up at him in unison, blinking their black eyes.

With his status, the Emperor no longer carried things himself. However, because it was for the little fellows, he personally carried it all the way. He opened the hot food box and took out three small cups of fragrant Fuyuanzi. “Look what I brought for you.”

The taste of Fuyuanzi was secondary. The small cup that contained the Fuyuanzi was really exquisite. There were flying cranes, white tigers, and turtles.

The three little black eggs’ gazes were immediately attracted.

Xiaobao: “Wah!”

Er’bao: “Waah!”

Dabao: Waaah!

The three little black eggs didn’t really want the candied hawthorn anymore, but they couldn’t just throw it away. The three of them thought for a while and handed over the candied hawthorn in their hands.

They were going to use their candied hawthorn to exchange for the Emperor’s Fuyuanzi. Their mother had said that this was called reciprocity.

The Emperor did not want to take what others liked. Moreover, he was old and did not like sweet food. However, the three little black eggs were determined to be good babies who knew etiquette. If the Emperor did not want candied hawthorn, they would not eat Fuyuanzi.

The three of them looked at the Fuyuanzi eagerly.

How could there be such sensible and cute children? The Emperor couldn’t help but laugh and openly accepted their candied hawthorn. Only then did the three of them carry the “different forms” of Fuyuanzi. They scooped with a spoon and ate heartily.

When they ate, the Emperor also ate.

Eunuch Wang hurriedly said, “Your Majesty, let me try it first.”

When the Emperor ate, someone had to test the poison first. That was the rule.

The Emperor glared at him. “Why? Do you suspect that there’s something wrong with this candied hawthorn? I really think you’ve become suspicious after staying in the palace for too long. How can this thing be poisonous?”

The Emperor bit down—

His eyes widened and he fell!

Damn it!

It was really poisonous!
