Evil Emperor's Wild Consort - chapter-253

What’s going on? Wasn’t there an assassin in the room? Where did the
assassin go?

“Erm…” the General asked in confusion, “Your Imperial Majesty, where is
this assassin?”

“The assassin? Why he’s right… Eh? Pang Ran? What are you doing here?”

Pang Zihuang widened His eyes, shouldn’t the Lin Yu siblings be here?
Why is this kid, Pang Ran here?

Actually, Pang Zihuang cannot be blamed for having mistaken Pang Ran for
somebody else. After all, He had only just woken up and His eyesight had
not returned. He did not even see Pang Ran coming. All He saw was a
figure rushing towards Him, and Pang Ran’s figure was quite similar to
that of Lin Yu’s. So He naturally thought that the former was the
latter. Because He had identified the man as Lin Yu, poor Pang Ran
received the kick in Lin Yu’s place.

“It would seem that You Imperial Majesty’s vigor has returned quite
well.”

Gu Ruoyun smiled gently while stroking her chin, “That one kick has sent
Pang Ran flying towards a distance of about 3.3 meters.”

“Hehe.”

Pang Zihuang felt slightly embarrassed, only understanding what had
happened after Gu Ruoyun’s explanation. The assassin We had seen was
actually Pang Ran by mistake? But then again, it was the kid’s fault
for charging towards Us for no apparent reason. If it weren’t for him,
We would not have embarrassed ourselves in front of so many people.

The more He thought of it, the more the notion made sense to Him. Pang
Zihuang glared sharply at Pang Ran, frightening him into shrinking his
neck, massaging his buttocks in grief.

What did I do this time? Pang Ran wondered.

“Oh right!”

Pang Zihuang smacked his palm on the bed, and bellowed angrily, “General,
take the scoundrels Lin Yu and Imperial Concubine Lin into custody and
bring them before Us, immediately!”

“Your Imperial Majesty.”

The General glanced briefly at Gu Ruoyun, then bowed before Pang Zihuang
and said, “Lin Yu has already been defeated by this young lady. As for
Imperial Concubine Lin, she is now in the Soaring Phoenix Palace. Lady Gu
has already sent her spiritual beast after her.”

Then, the General began relaying the events that had happened after Pang
Zihuang was poisoned in detail. Upon finding out that the siblings had
tried to frame Pang Ran, Pang Zihuang was furious. He raised His sword
and rushed out, forgetting to even put on His dragon robes. Everyone who
saw Pang Zihuang in this state was dumbfounded and still in a daze even
after He had left.

The end for Lin Yu will truly be miserable to an extreme point! You can
imagine how terrifying an enraged Pang Zihuang would be!

As for Imperial Concubine Lin, once she had heard that Gu Ruoyun was
truly the Master of Hundred Herb Hall, she screamed and fainted
immediately, the hatred in her heart nearly swallowing her whole.

The Empress had absolutely no idea over what was going on from the very
beginning. However, once She saw Pang Zihuang and Pang Ran safe and
sound, She sighed in relief, and tears filled Her eyes, unloading Her
poise and grandeur. After all, once you removed the layers of Her
position as the Empress, She was truly a gentle and virtuous loving wife
and mother.

Upon knowing that it was Gu Ruoyun who saved Pang Zihuang, She held her
hand in such gratitude that She could not let go. It was a good thing
that Pang Ran pulled his Imperial Mother away, otherwise, She would have
been holding Gu Ruoyun’s hand the entire day.

However, the powers of the Imperial Palace should never be
underestimated, the ingredients for the antidote to Pang Zihuang’s
trigonotis peduncularis poisoning were gathered within half a day. With
the ingredients, Gu Ruoyun can begin to concoct the antidote for Pang
Zihuang. Nevertheless, Gu Ruoyun found it strange that despite the huge
commotion that had happened in the palace, none of its details leaked
out, as if someone had arranged to confine all information…

…

A fresh breeze could be felt, and a mysterious man in black stayed hidden
behind a tree, his palms pressing against the back of the tree. His cold,
unfeeling eyes glowed with the light of warmth and love upon seeing the
young girl in the courtyard. His thin, water chestnut-shaped lips lightly
curled upwards, and the face concealed beneath his black mask displayed a
kind of tenderness that no one else has ever seen.

It would seem that this cold man who had a powerful aura would only be
enveloped in the luster of such affection in moments like this.
