Chapter 409: The Struggle for Imperial Power

So, she held Princess Cang Yue and said softly, "Princess, don't be impulsive. Let's go back and think of a solution."

Princess Cangyue nodded, glared at the guards fiercely, and turned back to her bedroom.

After returning to the palace, Princess Cang Yue angrily slammed the table: "Damn it, this Concubine Rou dared to put me under house arrest!"

Jiang Yimo comforted her, "Princess, don't worry. Concubine Rou must have her own purpose for doing this. We need to calm down and think of a solution."

Princess Cang Yue gnashed her teeth and said, "Humph, I will never let her succeed!"

Jiang Yimo pondered for a moment and said, "Princess, why don't we send a trusted confidant to inquire about the situation in the Yangxin Palace and see if the emperor is well. Then we can make a long-term plan."

Princess Cang Yue nodded in agreement: "Okay, let's do it."

Afterwards, Princess Cang Yue immediately arranged for a trusted confidant to go out of the palace to inquire about the news.

At the same time, Jiang Yimo was also thinking about how to deal with the current situation...

Time passed slowly, and soon, Princess Cangyue's confidant returned.

"Princess, the Yangxin Palace is being guarded by Concubine Rou herself, and there are two more layers of guards than this morning. I am not good at martial arts, so I dare not get close." The confidant said solemnly.

Princess Cang Yue frowned slightly, feeling somewhat worried: "This time Concubine Rou is here to guard the gate herself, it will be even more difficult for them to enter the Yangxin Palace. What should we do..."

After thinking for a moment, she continued to ask: "What about King Kang, where is he now?"

The confidant replied: "Princess, I heard that His Royal Highness Prince Kang has already gone to the palace gate, and he and Prince Sui, Prince Xie, and Prince Li seem to be..."

Princess Cang Yue frowned even more tightly, with a hint of anxiety in her eyes: "King Kang is really going to get serious with King Sui, King Xie and He Li."

After hearing the princess's confidant's words, Jiang Yimo calmed down a lot.

In her heart, she secretly admired the Evil King for his thoughtfulness, and was able to persuade King Sui and King Li to enter the palace together.

She had guessed in her heart that in this kind of court struggle, Prince Li would be easier to invite because Prince Xie had a closer relationship with Prince Li, but Prince Sui would be harder to invite.

It is said that he and the Evil King were not very close since childhood. Although the two brothers had never had any conflicts, their relationship was not very good.

Besides, Prince Sui had a stutter, and he was destined to become emperor. Perhaps in order to ensure his own safety, he would turn a blind eye to whatever his brothers did, and not give his other brothers the opportunity to catch him in the future.

However, Prince Sui and Prince Li both made an appointment with Prince Xie to enter the palace together, which invisibly increased the pressure on Concubine Rou and Prince Kang.

It would not be so easy for mother and son to frame the evil king, force him to abdicate, kill their father and usurp the throne.

After all, they are all the emperor's sons. If Prince Kang can enter the palace to visit his father, why can't others do the same?

This time, Prince Kang and Concubine Rou will probably be in a mess.

Jiang Yimo's eyes flashed with determination, and she said softly: "Princess, I want to go to the Yangxin Palace to take a look."

"No!" Cangyue interrupted anxiously, "Sister Jiang, the conflict between you and Concubine Rou is so deep that she will definitely not give up when she sees you. She will definitely kill you.

Cangyue didn't dare to say the word "death".

Jiang Yimo smiled slightly and said calmly: "Don't worry, I will disguise myself before going in. I won't take risks easily, so you don't have to worry."

Cang Yue knew that he couldn't dissuade her, so he could only sigh helplessly and warned: "Sister Jiang, you must be careful then."

Jiang Yimo nodded and asked the palace servant to bring a set of adult clothes.

He returned to the room he had arranged for himself in the princess's residence and disguised himself as a little eunuch.

The next moment, she left the room and hurried to the Yangxin Palace.

At this time, in the Yangxin Palace, Concubine Rou anxiously called over her trusted imperial physician who was taking the old emperor's pulse.

However, he felt the old emperor's pulse for a long time and could not determine the emperor's condition.

The pulse was sometimes so weak that it was almost imperceptible, sometimes it became extremely rapid as if it was about to burst through the blood vessels, and sometimes it returned to a stable state.

This strange pulse condition left the imperial doctors puzzled and they did not dare to draw conclusions easily.

"Doctor Han, what happened to the emperor?" Concubine Rou asked anxiously.

Doctor Han wiped the sweat from his forehead and replied in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, judging from the emperor's pulse, his breath is very weak, but the pulse is too strange, and I dare not jump to conclusions!"

When Concubine Rou heard this, her face instantly darkened. She stared at Doctor Han fiercely, her eyes flashing with anger, and roared, "What kind of pulse is that? You can't even tell!"

The voice was sharp and piercing, with obvious dissatisfaction and anger.

Doctor Han was frightened by Concubine Rou's roar. His face turned pale as paper and a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

He replied tremblingly: "Old...old minister, my medical knowledge is shallow and it is difficult for me to judge the specific situation of this pulse. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

His tone was filled with fear and anxiety.

After hearing this, Concubine Rou was so angry that she didn't want to talk to Doctor Han anymore.

She stood on the old emperor's bed, her face terribly gloomy.

She took a deep breath and shouted to the door, "Someone come!"

A palace maid came in, bowed her head and asked, "What do you want, Madam?"

Concubine Rou gritted her teeth and said, "Go and call Judge Zhang over."

The maid responded and turned and left.

However, not long after, the maid came back in a hurry and said anxiously, "Your Majesty, Zhang Yuanpan said they are not in the palace."

When Concubine Rou heard this, her eyes widened and she angrily cursed, "How dare he not be in the palace at this time! How abominable!" She slammed the edge of the bed and said angrily, "What about the others? Is there any other imperial physician we can find?"

The maid lowered her head and answered tremblingly: "Your Majesty, the other imperial doctors have also left the palace. Now there are only a few young imperial doctors left in the palace."

After hearing this, Concubine Rou was even more furious. How could these imperial doctors not be on standby in the palace at the critical moment? She gritted her teeth and said, "I don't care. Send someone to find them immediately. No matter what, they must come back to treat the emperor."

The maid nodded in agreement and ran out to arrange for someone to find the imperial physician. Concubine Rou was still standing by the bed, glancing at the old emperor, her heart filled with anger and anxiety.

If all else fails, she will just poison the old emperor, and then find a scapegoat to take his place.

In short, the old emperor cannot die at the hands of her and Prince Kang.

Just as Concubine Rou was thinking of these vicious methods, a young eunuch cautiously walked up to Concubine Rou and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to report."

When Concubine Rou heard what the young eunuch said, she looked so cold that she didn't even want to glance at him.
