The imperial doctor who came was the most trusted imperial physician by the emperor. After taking the emperor's pulse, he knelt on the ground in fear.

"Your Majesty, the humble minister is incompetent..."

"F-bastard, what's the use of keeping you? Come on, come on, drag it down, drag it down!"

The emperor became furious instantly, Ning Ze frowned, and then softly comforted him.

"Father, Commander Wei has already gone to find the Rejuvenation Pill. There is still use in keeping him. Mrs. Hui's hand is also injured. It's better to let the imperial doctor take care of it and then go back to refine the elixir for Father."

After hearing this, the emperor calmed down for a moment and let the imperial doctor take Qiao Shi down to treat the wound.

Ning Ze quickly asked people to clean up the Yangxin Hall, and then moved the emperor to the Yangxin Hall, acting very worried and anxious along the way.

The suspicion in the emperor's heart was finally put down, and his expression gradually softened.

"Aze, my father is sorry for you."

In the Hall of Cultivation of the Heart, the emperor was lying on the bed, his face showing a little guilt, and his eyes showing rare kindness, as if he was thinking of Ning Ze's childhood.

Ning Ze's emotions were suddenly aroused.

"Father, don't say that. Commander Wei will definitely bring the elixir back properly."

"I'm afraid that my father won't be able to hold on until that time. Someone comes and invites all the ministers in."

Before the mutiny, the ministers had been arranged in the side hall. Originally, the second prince wanted to solve the emperor's problem before dealing with those people, but now everyone is safe and sound, just frightened.

The ministers were soon taken to the Yangxin Hall, where the emperor was already dying.

In front of all the ministers, the emperor summoned academicians to draft an imperial edict and passed it on to the prince Ningze.

Now among the emperor's sons, the third prince is dead, the second prince is not only rebelling, he is not his, and the other princes are too young to be entrusted with important responsibilities.

After the edict was drafted, Commander Wei also came with people. No matter how he forced a confession, the second prince's answer was always the same, and he was eaten.

Qiao Shi understood clearly.

The elixir she exchanged herself was similar to the elixir the emperor had taken before. It stimulated life potential, and the injuries would recover in a short period of time, and then... she would die faster.

Therefore, the second prince must have not eaten yet, but he just refused to explain.

"Haha, retribution..."

The emperor closed his eyes in pain. Ning Ze was silent for a moment, and suddenly whispered into the emperor's ear: "Father, in fact, the princess that Concubine Chen gave birth to is still alive, and she is the daughter of the former Minister of Household Affairs."

Hearing this, the emperor's eyes opened and he stared straight at Ning Ze.

"you you--"

The emperor died before he could finish his last sentence, his eyes widened and he refused to close his eyes.

The emperor died, probably because of Ning Ze's last words.

What Ning Ze said meant that he was aware of this matter from beginning to end and was just using the emperor to eliminate the second prince.

If you think about it more deeply, Qiao Shi is also the prince's son...

After walking out of the Yangxin Hall, Qiao Shi glanced sideways slightly, and Ning Ze looked over at the same time.

"I thought you would let him go quietly."

Ning Ze just chuckled, left without saying a word and left without looking back.

"The third brother was also quite popular with his father when he was young."

However, the death of the third prince failed to make the emperor feel any sadness.

The family affection in the emperor's heart has long been lost in the ocean of power.

Next came the announcement of the emperor's death and the new emperor's ascension to the throne. Everything was done without delay.

The capital was under martial law, so Qiao Shi had nothing to do. He leisurely talked with Bai Ruo about physiognomy.

Half a month passed and everything was almost settled. Next came the official coronation ceremony of the new emperor and the canonization of the queen.

During this period, the second prince was given wine and died in the cell.

When the matter settled, Qiao Shi and Bai Ruo were summoned into the palace.

"What's wrong?"

In the carriage, Bai Ruo followed Qiao Shi's gaze and saw only a few young eunuchs passing by.

"Seems like an acquaintance."

Qiao Shi didn't say much.

She just didn't expect that Sun Er would go into the palace and become a eunuch after he was crippled, but this had nothing to do with her.

Not to mention whether Sun Er could recognize her, even if he did, Ning Ze didn't know her identity anyway.

Ning Ze summoned her and Bai Ruo to the palace for two things, one of which was to reward them.

Qiao Shi didn't care about rewards or anything like that. She would be leaving soon anyway.

In addition, there is another matter, and that is the matter of the Duke of Ming. The legitimate daughter of the Duke of Ming is the wife of General Zhenguo. This time General Zhenguo rebelled with the second prince.

Ning Ze was kind and did not kill the nine tribes, but he would not let go of the three tribes, and the Duke of Ming Dynasty was also involved.

The change of throne is indeed so cruel.

But after all, they were Qiao Shi's maternal family. In the end, all the family were demoted to common people and exiled thousands of miles away, which was considered to be a life.

As for the Minister of Household Affairs, he had already turned against the second prince, and this time he was also ransacked and beheaded.

Before that, Qiao Shi asked for Ning Ze's grace to let Ming Nianyue divorce her husband and leave the Xiang family.

No matter how much the Xiang family begged and cried for mercy, Qiao Shi didn't even show a trace of emotion.

Xiang Jing's identity was also revealed to the public by Ning Ze. Although he was Concubine Chen's child, Ning Ze did not pursue anything because he had been raised by Ming Nianyue's side since childhood.

And these things have been discussed before.

Xiang Jing was given the Princess Mansion, and Qiao Shi asked Xiang Jing to take Ming Nianyue to the Princess Mansion, so that Ming Nianyue would live in the Princess Mansion in the future.

Although Xiang Jing didn't know why, she and Ming Nianyue had been dependent on each other for more than ten years. They had a deep relationship, and the emperor allowed this, so Xiang Jing happily took her in.

Ning Ze seemed to have guessed something about Qiao Shi's behavior and specially summoned him to the palace to inquire.

"Yes, haven't I told you before? I don't have long life, and this body will die soon after you ascend the throne."

Qiao Shi sat casually on the chair brought by the head eunuch, and treated Ning Ze very casually.

Ning Ze already knows his identity anyway, so why should he be so reserved?

"how about you?"

Ning Ze's eyes were deep and he clearly wanted an answer.

Qiao Shi curled his lips.

"Of course I will go back to where I belong."

"Then...are you coming back?"

Ning Ze pursed his lips, with expectations in his eyes that he didn't even know he knew.

"Aren't you afraid that I will overthrow your throne next time you come back?"

Ning Ze: "..."

"Do you know?"

"Yes, if the client wants to overthrow your throne, I will definitely find a way to accomplish it."

Qiao Shi nodded affirmatively without hesitation.

Ning Ze stopped talking completely, with a wry smile on his lips.

"By the way, I'm here to ask for grace. Firstly, I want to give my mother a royal decree. Secondly, let her make her own decision about a peaceful marriage in the future. The only one she can rely on in the future is you. You can't treat them badly. My mother is being taken care of by Jingjing."

"good."

Ning Jing and Ming Nianyue indeed have no background behind them, so it is nothing to give the two women noble status.

"Okay, I will stay here for another month. If you want to redeem the Rejuvenation Pill, you can find a way on your own. I won't give it to you for free in the future."
