Chapter 641 The Schemes Of The Mother And Son (Part Two)
"Mother, what is that?" Felix asked, feeling a bit confused.
"Your father's poison!" the empress exclaimed. "He has killed countless people with this poison all hislife, and now I would like to use his own poison to end his life. It would be a decent way to die even forsomeone like him."
Hearing this made the emperor's blood boil. As soon as he woke up, he heard how the empress eggedon Felix to kill him. And as if that wasn't bad enough, Felix actually agreed to it. Now, the empress waseven planning to use his own poison to kill him. If he continued to stay in a coma, he would mostcertainly die. But if they were to find out that he was awake right now, that would also mean death forhim!
At that moment, all the emperor could do was to pray that someone else would come here so that hecould wake up. The empress mentioned that she wouldn't kill him until three days later, which meant hestill had some time. However, his chances of making it out alive would be very slim if the empress wereto begin poisoning him from here on out!
"Your Majesty, it's now time for His Majesty to take his medicine." A maid walked in and brought themedicine to the empress. This made the emperor's heart leap to his throat. After all, taking medicinewas just about the last thing he wanted to do right now.
Without delay, the empress took the bowl, beckoning her maid to leave. Seeing this, the maid left theroom at once. After putting down the bowl, she opened the vial, poured a small amount of poison into itand stirred it. "Felix, help your father up. I will feed him myself."
"Yes, Mother."
Felix immediately helped the emperor up. At that moment, the emperor was so scared at his wit's endthat he didn't dare to move a muscle. He desperately wanted to grit his teeth as the empress fed him
the medicine, but he couldn't risk making the empress suspicious. Feeling so helpless, he had no otherchoice but to drink it. That being said, he tried to spit out as much as he could.
After a while, the empress finally finished feeding him the entire bowl. Although a lot of the medicinehad been spilled, the emperor had still drunk a considerable amount. This had put the empress in agood mood. If she continued mixing in a little poison in the medicine every day, the emperor would bedead in three days. No one would be able to find out that it was her who had poisoned the emperor!novelbin
Watching the emperor lying motionless on the bed, Harper almost couldn't hold back her laughter. Theemperor had a habit of poisoning people. Now, he finally had a taste of his own medicine. To makematters worse, it had been fed to him by his own wife, the empress. Harper was so eager to find outhow the emperor felt.
As he looked at Harper who was trying to hold back her laughter, Matthew couldn't help but smilesilently. Those who had done wrong always got their just deserts. The emperor had just been given adose of his own medicine. However, the empress and Felix would get themselves in trouble this time.
"That should be enough for now. The show is over. It's time for us to leave." Wrapping his arm aroundHarper's waist, Matthew left the Tranquil Hall with her in silence.
The empress had moved into the Tranquil Hall, but she didn't take care of the emperor herself all thetime. Andy was actually the one who looked after the emperor. But for some reason, the empresswould always ask him to leave whenever she was there.
"Andy, please take good care of His Majesty."
"Yes, Your Majesty." After watching the empress and Felix leave, he brought in some hot water to wipethe emperor's body.
"Your Majesty, please wake up. If you don't wake up any time soon, I'm afraid that something really badis going to happen," Andy whispered under his breath as he wiped down the emperor's body. In truth,he was well aware of what the empress and Felix were thinking. If the emperor didn't regainconsciousness as soon as possible, there was a good chance that they'd do something to harm him.
After all, Felix was the heir to the throne. If the emperor died, the crown prince would be the one next inline to inherit the throne. For that reason, Felix would definitely benefit more from a dead emperor thana living one.
The emperor didn't dare to move. He had been in a coma for many days now. He believed that theempress must've replaced the servants of his palace, meaning he was now surrounded by theempress's people. These people would inform her about his every move. On top of that, if the empressand Felix were to find out that he woke up right after they left, they might suspect that he overheard theconversation they had in his bedroom and would try to kill him by any means possible.
Never had the emperor suspected that the one he shared his bed with would actually want to take hislife using his own poison. The thought of this left him fuming with intense anger deep inside. At thatmoment, he wanted to shout, to curse, to kill them, but he couldn't. Without much of a choice, he had tolie there and act as if he were still in a coma.
It was Andy who looked after the emperor in the evening. The emperor didn't move until it was alreadyin the middle of the night. He managed to move his hand, but Andy had already dozed off so he didn'tnotice it.
When the emperor finally opened his eyes, he found out that Andy fell asleep. Gritting his teeth, heclosed his eyes once more and mumbled, "Water, water..."
Although there was no strength in his voice, that was enough to wake Andy up. Hearing the emperorspeaking surprised and excited him. So, Andy quickly poured a cup of water, ran to the emperor's side
and helped him up to let him drink it.
"Your Majesty, you have finally regained consciousness! Your majesty is awake!" Andy yelled out. Theguards of the Tranquil Hall were alarmed when they heard Andy's scream. This made the emperor sofurious that he wanted to slap Andy so badly. The empress was up to no good and Andy knew that fullwell. How careless and foolish could Andy be to create such a commotion? Now, the empress probablyknew that he was awake.
At that time, the empress was sound asleep. But the moment she heard that the emperor woke up, shewas so surprised that her sleepiness had disappeared completely. Felix, on the other hand, hadn'treturned to his own mansion yet. Instead, he decided to sleep in the side hall, which made it moreconvenient for him to read the files and attend the imperial court session. When he heard that theemperor woke up, he headed straight toward the main hall. With every step that he took, he could feelthe butterflies fluttering terribly in his stomach. Now that the emperor had woken up, how was his plansupposed to work?
