There was no other way. War was fought with money.

In the previous battle, not many days had passed, but almost 20% of the silver in the national treasury had been burned.

After that, there was the negotiation of reparations and preparations for a new war. The silver in the national treasury was decreasing rapidly.

Now that it was winter, if there was a snowstorm, the Ministry of Revenue would not even be able to take out the money for disaster relief.

With the Ministry of Revenues support, many officials immediately stood up to express their support.

However, there were still objections.

Some of the ministers felt that there was no need for the vassal kings to participate in the war since the war had yet to start. Otherwise, once the vassal king had the intention to rebel, it would be easy to cause trouble.

Liu Wuji raised his hand.

Eunuch Dahu immediately spoke up to silence the officials.

We have to guard against the border, Liu Wuji said after the hall quieted down.

But rashly letting the vassal king participate in the battle is indeed inappropriate.bender

After the court is dismissed, 1 will personally see the Emperor. This matter will be left to the Emperor to decide.

As soon as he said this, all the officials nodded and bowed to Liu Wuji.

Only then did Liu Wuji announce his retreat.

After that, he asked Eunuch Da Hu to bring him to Shuanghua Palace.

Your Majesty! Just as he reached the door, he heard a shrill scream from inside.

Liu Wujis expression changed. He ignored the guard and pushed the door open.

The guards followed Liu Wuji and quickly entered the hall.

Emperor Yan, who had not seen him for more than ten days, had turned completely white. There were many blood stains on the corners of his mouth and his body.

There was also a pool of blood on the ground, which looked especially terrifying.

Zhang Shi hugged the old Emperor who seemed to have died, wailing and crying.

As for Lady Yu, she was terrified and didnt dare to step forward.

Summon the Imperial Physician! Liu Wuji quickly ordered.

Then, he quickly walked forward and felt Emperor Yans pulse.

Zhang Shi, who was originally in a panic, saw the arrival of the Imperial

Advisor and quickly cooperated to hold the Emperor.

Liu Wujis expression changed quickly.

His gaze was like a knife as he looked at Zhang Shi.

Zhang Shi was so frightened that she almost fell.

The Emperor has been poisoned. Liu Wuji said.

All Zhang Shi cried out in surprise. Her legs went weak, and she held onto the chair that Emperor Yan was sitting on to prevent herself from falling.

Then, she seemed to have thought of something and quickly turned around to look at Lady Yu.

Her face was pale, but she forcefully suppressed the fear in her heart.

Then, she rushed to Liu Wuji and knelt down.

Sir! It has nothing to do with me, its Zhang Shi! The Emperors daily life had always been Zhang Shis responsibility! She must have poisoned the Emperor!

Zhang Shis face turned pale and she didnt react for a moment.

When Liu Wuji looked at her, she wanted to explain, but she found that her throat was dry and she couldnt speak.

Her appearance made people feel that she was guilty.

Men! Liu Wuji suddenly said.

Ah Zhang shi cried out in alarm again and knelt down towards Liu Wuji.

Just as he was about to give the order, a hand grabbed Liu Wujis wrist.

It was the dying Emperor Yan who had woken up.

Imperial Advisor. Emperor Yan raised his heavy eyelids and called out to Liu Wuji.

Although he had been unconscious for a while, he had heard everything that had happened after the state preceptor had arrived.

Now that he had been poisoned, only Zhang Shi and Lady Yu were the most suspicious.

However, he believed in Zhang Shi and could not watch the Imperial Advisor attack Zhang Shi.

Liu Wuji glanced at Emperor Yan and then at Zhang Shi. He understood Emperor Yans thoughts.

The Emperor has been poisoned. This is a serious matter. We must investigate it thoroughly. He said in a deep voice.

Seeing Emperor Yan raise his head to look at him again, the seriousness on Liu Wujis face lessened a little.

Take the two consorts to the side hall and keep a close watch on them. He then said.

Only then did Emperor Yan nod his head slightly and relax a little.

The guards quickly came in to bring him in.

Your Majesty! Zhang Shi panicked and looked at Emperor Yan.

Your Majesty! Its not me it has nothing to do with me! Please save me! Yu Cairen was even more flustered. She reached out to pull Emperor Yan.

However, she was pulled back by the guards who came forward.

Emperor Yan frowned.

He only gave Zhang Shi a reassuring look, but he didnt even look at Lady Yu.

After a while, the two girls were brought out by the guards.

The hall finally quieted down.

What poison did I get? Emperor Yan asked Liu Wuji in a hoarse voice.

Liu Wujis expression was grave.

A slow-acting poison. Although the poison isnt strong, its very difficult to remove.

In addition, the medicinal effects of the Life Essence Pill that Your Majesty took previously have not disappeared. Im afraid that your body will not be able to withstand the detoxification. At this point, Liu Wuji frowned..
