urrent health condition was indeed a complicated one.


She should have died a couple of times over, after ingesting the poison in the bridal sedan.

She wondered if it was because she had taken a portion of the antidote before she suddenly transcended time and space to arrive here.
To her surprise, the poison was not able to take her life, yet she was unable to completely eradicate it.
It remained in her like a parasite.

The various antidote and pills fed to her by Long Tianyu and Xiaoyu over the past half-year should be able to revive any dying patient, and inject energy and life into him.

However, the poison seemed to have developed antibodies against them, and they had no effect on it.

For this reason, every part of her body was functioning perfectly without any problem.
However, if something triggered the poison in her body, she would die instantly.

Interestingly, the Shen Nung System in her brain still retained the knowledge of poison that her teacher had passed on to her.
Now, any kind of poison in the world would not be too difficult for her to handle.

This was with the exception of the poison in her body.
There was no way she could overcome it.

Apparently, even the most advanced instruments in modern times were not be able to handle this poison.

She would just have to leave it and play it by ear.

“I’m fine.
The most important thing now is to purge out the poison in the emperor’s body.
This is the only way we can keep from remaining passive.
Whoever could have poisoned him? How did he do it? Do you have any clues?”

Lin Mengya put aside her sad emotions and once again, she was back to being the quick-witted Princess Yu.

Long Tianyu pondered for a moment and nodded slightly.

“There were too little details, I’m only at the initial stage of identifying the suspects.
One day, I will be able to confirm that the queen and the Crown Prince are involved.”

Lin Mengya nodded in agreement.
Most certainly, the queen and the Crown Prince were the ones who benefitted most out of the emperor’s illness.

Nevertheless, there was something that did not fit into the picture.

“I have a feeling that the Crown Prince and the queen are merely adding fuel to the flames.
Think about it, the Crown Prince may have been impulsive in the things he did, but he never commits grave mistakes.
In fact, the emperor has never rebuked him.
As for the queen, she has been a just judge in the imperial harem.
If things continue in this manner, there is a high likelihood that the Crown Prince will inherit the throne when the emperor passes away.
Why would they want to take the trouble to resort to poisoning the emperor?”

Lin Mengya’s analysis made sense.
She had made a deduction based on her own perspective.


In fact, Long Tianyu had also thought about it this way.
Nevertheless, he knew the queen and the Crown better, and thought that things would not be as simple as it seemed, on the surface.

“Although you have analyzed it correctly, I have a feeling that the queen and the Crown Prince have a greater purpose.
Father could well live for another 20 to 30 years, if his current health condition persists.
“By then, the Crown Prince would be even more mature and steady, although the queen would have aged.
I have a feeling that they have other ulterior motives.
Usurping the throne of the Jin State is the stepping stone to achieving their goal.”

A greater purpose? So insatiable were their appetites that they would not be satisfied with merely gaining the throne of the Jin State.

Could it be that their motive was to conquer the entire world?

At the instant, Lin Mengya thought it would be ridiculous and laughable, if that was the case.

In the course of history, there were countless people who had wanted to conquer the world, who were much more competent than the grossly inadequate Crown Prince.
They had all failed in one way or another, in the process of doing so.

The Crown Prince was simply a foolish dreamer if he thought he could conquer the whole world!

“He must be daydreaming.
It would not sound as if it was too great an ambition if it were during turbulent times.
At present, however, apart from the Jin State, the other nations are also strong.
Wouldn’t it be good for people to be contented with their lives? Why would he want to conquer the world? All nations should play a part in ruling the world.
What makes he think he can be the ruler of them all?”

Lin Mengya found this matter absolutely laughable.

Given the circumstance, however, this appeared to be the most plausible reason.

What else could be more alluring than the throne?

“The Crown Prince has always overestimated himself.
I am not surprised at his ambition.
However, I’d like to know the reason why the queen is playing along with him.
Does she really think that her son is capable of holding the supreme power?”

This—

Lin Mengya pondered for a moment, and concluded that she had indeed been too naive.

“You’re right.
It seems that the situation in the palace is more complicated than I thought.
I don’t think I will be of much help to you, other than working behind the scenes to develop the antidote for you.”

Lin Mengya shrugged.
She had been too naive.

“In that case, you will be working hard too.
I hope you will take good care of your body.
I will be making a trip in a few days, and perhaps will not be back for another half-month.”

Was he going away again? Lin Mengya was perplexed.
In fact, she could tell from the time she married Long Tianyu that the life of being a prince was not as leisurely and carefree as it seemed.
