The Empress Dowager

Chapter 605
After the third watch, the old emperor woke up from his sleep with a cough. Eunuch Lu lit the candle quickly, opened the curtain and was shocked by the scene in front of him. He saw the old emperor's face was pale and blood was spilling from his mouth.

"Your Majesty..." Eunuch Lu was startled, and quickly wiped the blood from the corner of the old emperor's mouth with a handkerchief.

"Lu... Lu Cheng, I won't be here for long, have you checked what I asked you to check?" said the old emperor.

"Your majesty, the servant has checked, and the one who poisoned you is..." Eunuch Lu hesitated and didn't know what to say. After all, in the heart of the emperor, that person is very important. If he tells the truth to the emperor, the emperor will condition will become more serious.

"Who is it?" The old emperor looked at Eunuch Lu with slack eyes, and the blood kept spilling from his mouth.

Eunuch Lu felt distressed for a while, and wiped away his tears: "Your Majesty, my servant is going to find Wei Yuanpan, and let Wei Yuanpan help you take a look."

As Eunuch Lu said, he was about to walk outside.

"Come back, do you think you can escape like this? I am well aware of my illness, and my time limit has come, so it is useless to find an immortal. Besides, you will never be able to find Wei Yuan to judge, right?" the old emperor said weakly. talking.

When Eunuch Lu heard the words, he knelt on the ground with a 'plop': "Your Majesty, it wasn't the slave who deliberately concealed it from the Emperor. The Emperor is not in good health, and the slave is afraid that you will be angry."

"Okay, get up, I also know that you are doing it for my own good, what happened outside during my illness?"

Eunuch Lu didn't dare to get up, and still knelt on the ground: "Go back to the emperor, the fifth prince led troops to seek usurpation, but was blocked by His Royal Highness from the city gate."

"What?" The old emperor just yelled, then coughed a few more times.

"Your majesty, please calm down." Eunuch Lu helped the old emperor wipe the blood stains from the corners of his mouth with a towel while talking, and helped the old emperor calm down.

"Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing?"

"Your Majesty, you are not feeling well right now, this old servant is afraid of you..."

"Are you afraid that I will die of anger?" After a few words, the old emperor's voice weakened a lot.

"Your Majesty, don't be angry, Tianqi and Qingxiao have sent troops to help us, and soon His Royal Highness will win."

"Are Tianqi and Qingxiao sent troops?"

"Yes, Your Majesty." Eunuch Lu said respectfully.

The old emperor glanced at Eunuch Lu with a serious expression: "Lu Cheng, can you tell me now who poisoned me?"

The old emperor had a bad premonition in his heart. In this palace, Concubine Lin was his favorite woman and the person he trusted the most. He didn't believe that Lin'er would hurt his heart.

"Back to the emperor, it's Concubine Lin." Eunuch Lu looked at the emperor and said cautiously.

The old emperor only felt a 'boom' in his head, as if it was going to explode, it was Concubine Lin, it turned out to be Concubine Lin!The woman he loves most, why did Concubine Lin want to kill him?Is he not good to her?

"Your Majesty, calm down."

The old emperor waved his hand: "I'm fine. Let me tell you that Concubine Lin is the woman I love the most in my life. When I go, Concubine Lin will be buried with me!"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Now I really understand what it means to be alone!" The old emperor said with a heavy sigh.

"Your Majesty, this servant is always by your side." Eunuch Lu comforted.

"That's right, besides you, my slave, there is no one I can trust. Lu Cheng, it's really hard for you to be with me for so many years."
