After marrying the hunter, he became more and more abnormal

Chapter 460…

Therefore, the old emperor was shocked by the fact that the two elders recovered without any treatment.

Because of this incident, although the old emperor remained skeptical, he did not dare to act rashly and use the two elders as experiments. Instead, he summoned Liu Qiuwu to the palace for an audience and urged him to ask for the "immortal dew".

However, Liu Qiuwu and the other two prayed for more than ten days in a row, but not a single drop of the "immortal dew" was obtained. Instead, the mental state of the two elders became better and better, and their faces were full of rosy glow.

When the old emperor heard the report from his subordinates, he could not help but stare and wonder, was this happening on purpose to show him? Was it to condemn him, openly or secretly, for touching those two old guys?

Thinking of this, the old emperor was secretly frightened and a little unhappy, but in order to restore his health, he didn't mind being more generous and making their lives better.

In order to verify what he thought in his mind, the old emperor instantly improved the treatment of the three people of the Liu family. Among them, Liu Qiuwu was promoted and Madam Liu was granted an imperial edict, which caused an uproar in the court.

Liu Qiuwu was also confused about this.

He has always adhered to the principle of "better to have nothing than to have something of inferior quality" and would never let the "immortal dew" become a cheap product, thereby losing the initiative. Therefore, he has been waiting for the old emperor to make things difficult for him, but he didn't expect that after waiting for so long, he got a promotion and a fortune?

After thinking about it, Liu Qiuwu still felt that the old emperor didn't trust them, but because he found that the hard approach didn't work, so he wanted to try the soft approach?

The two elders of the Liu family were also confused. They didn't know what was going on. They just thought that their son won the bet and was really appreciated by the old emperor.

Only Xia Mo knew that the old emperor had mobilized such a large army just to show him. Since he wanted the old emperor to not dare to touch the two elders again, he had to give them a warning and then give them the reward.

Therefore, when Liu Qiuwu and the other two asked for the 'immortal dew' next time, Xia Mo asked Xiao Shu to put a drop of spiritual lake water into the bowl. The old emperor's men were on high alert the whole time, staring at the three people's every move, but they didn't find any suspicious movements. However, they got the 'immortal dew' and made a miraculous tonic pill!

After taking it, the old emperor's mental state improved again. He felt full of energy, as if he had returned to his forties. He was very happy.

"It seems that we can't be harsh on the three people from the Liu family."

For a time, Liu Qiuwu was continuously honored and favored. The old emperor rewarded him again and again and even arranged a marriage for him.

"My dear, you have outstanding looks and are well-educated. At your age, other families would have children all over the place, and it's time for you to start a family and build a career. I will find a good marriage for you."

Liu Qiuwu's heart tightened. He didn't know what the old emperor was up to. He knelt down and said, "I thank the emperor for his kindness, but I only love men and not women. Now I have someone I like. I have a crush on him and we are in love. I swore that I would never abandon him. I also don't want to harm a good girl. I hope the emperor will take back his order."

The old emperor laughed loudly, "Well, well, well, since you are so loyal and righteous, I will never break you up. Why don't we choose a good day for you two to get married?"

As soon as these words were spoken, many people in the court turned their eyes to the Shangshu with a dark face, full of sympathy.

After all, everyone in the capital knew that Lord Liu's lover was none other than Li Jingran, the third son of Lord Shangshu who was kicked out of the family.

Seeing that the old emperor was not trying to arrange a marriage for him, Liu Qiuwu gladly accepted the offer and said, "I thank the Lord for his grace."

When Xia Mo learned that Liu Qiuwu and Li Jingran were going to get married, and that it was the old emperor who granted the marriage, he was stunned and wondered what the old emperor was up to again.

But on second thought, this is also a good thing. The two of them were not able to be together openly in the previous life, and now that the emperor has granted them a golden wedding, it can be considered to make up for the regrets of the previous life.

It's a pity that everything was done in such a hurry. As soon as the two elders were brought to preside over the wedding, the soldiers began to search Lingguang Temple inside and out. I think this was the old emperor's real purpose.

After seeing this, Xia Mo felt it was difficult to come out of the space, so he did not attend the wedding banquet.

Everyone in the Liu Mansion was delighted. Liu Qiuwu was now a popular figure around the old emperor. People with ulterior motives had to consider his own worth before making a move.

They were overjoyed, but some were worried to the point of losing their hair, and some were so angry that they smashed the room.

As soon as Prince Qiao entered the room, he saw debris all over the floor. His son, whom he had always been optimistic about, was standing inside in a disheveled state, seemingly still venting his anger. He could not help but yell, "Jin'er, what are you doing!"

Qiao Wenjin raised his head, the viciousness in his eyes had not yet faded, and he said angrily: "Father, why haven't you taken action over there? Didn't you say you wanted him dead?!"

King Qiao frowned, his tone revealing a hint of anger, and said: "Look at what you are like now! You are so impatient, with this kind of mentality, how can you accomplish anything big!"

Qiao Wenjin was scolded by him, and finally regained some of his rationality that was dominated by anger. He gritted his teeth, lowered his head, and admitted his fault to his father: "The child is insane."

Prince Qiao looked at him coldly, "It's good that you know. A little impatience can ruin a great plan. Do you think Prince Xian can live until now without any capable people around him? Yu Shuche won't live long anyway. If you get involved because of your hatred for Liu Qiuwu and cause trouble again, it will not end well."

Hearing the warning in his words, Qiao Wenjin could only respond obediently, "I understand, father. I won't do anything stupid. Besides, father, is there something you want to discuss with me?"

Prince Qiao glanced at him calmly, stepped over the debris on the ground and sat down on the armchair, narrowed his eyes and asked, "Are you still raising your beautiful concubine and child?"

Qiao Wenjin paused, feeling that his father would not mention this matter for no reason.

As expected, the next moment he heard his father say, "Jin'er, if your plan succeeds, you can have as many beauties and children as you want in the future, but you have to give them up. If they find out that you deliberately concealed your gender, we in the Qiao Palace will be in great trouble."

Qiao Wenjin certainly understood this logic, otherwise he would not have secretly executed the other concubines and children, leaving only the most desired mother and son and secretly settling them elsewhere.

Seeing his entangled expression, Prince Qiao raised his eyebrows, feeling disappointed, and changed the subject and said sternly: "I think you are really bewildered. You are actually hesitating because of your children's love. If so, then the position of the prince..."

"Father!" Qiao Wenjin was really afraid that he would seize his position as the crown prince in a fit of rage. Because of his lack of moral character, if the Qiao Palace really replaced someone as the crown prince, it would not only not harm the Qiao Palace, but would also help save its reputation.

King Qiao remained silent, just staring at him with his dark eyes, waiting for him to make a decision.

Qiao Wenjin clenched his fist, gritted his teeth and said cruelly: "I will take care of it."

Prince Qiao nodded with satisfaction and said in a gentle tone: "This is a good son of your father. He is a man who makes decisions when necessary and does not show mercy to women."

"Father is right," said Qiao Wenjin.

Yingying, who was lurking in Prince Qiao's mansion, couldn't help but sneer when she learned that they were going to kill her own son and grandson.

He is as cold-blooded and heartless as ever. If he doesn't do something, he will be so unfair to himself and his dead father.
