The throne room.
The hall was magnificent and grand, but the atmosphere was stagnant. It was as if the air was stagnant.
It was so oppressive that it made people panic and feel uncomfortable.
In the high position, a youth wearing a bright yellow dragon robe was sitting on the dragon throne. Glass beads were hanging down from his crown, covering his beautiful eyes and making him look hazy.
The youth pursed his lips and did not speak. There was a cold expression on his beautiful face.
His eyes were lowered and his long eyelashes covered his dark pupils, leaving a beautiful shadow on his eyelids.
The ministers in the court were all bowing and holding jade slips in their hands. Although they were so tired that their heads were covered in sweat and they could not straighten their waists, no one dared to stand up straight.
They lowered their heads and bent their waists, not daring to look at the emperor. There was only fear and awe in their hearts.
Shen Wanqing slightly frowned. She was about to open her mouth to have them rise, but who knew that she would have a splitting headache in the next second.
That feeling was like there was a tendon in her brain and someone was fiercely pulling on that tendon. It was so painful that her veins popped out and her entire person began to riot.
Shen Wanqing furrowed her brows tightly. She pressed her temples hard, trying to calm herself down, but this only made her head hurt even more.
A ruthless and violent riot rose up in her heart. It was as if she began to crave blood. She wanted to calm down, but she could not calm down.
Eunuch Cao, who was extremely far away from Shen Wanqing, saw her frowning expression and knew that the headache had come back.
Eunuch Cao's heart was very nervous. He looked at the other person's increasingly violent mood and did not care about anything else. He quickly said, "Quick, quick, quick, the emperor's headache is coming back. Quickly bring the medicine!!"
The palace maid on the side quickly turned around to get the medicine. When she ran, her legs were soft and her eyes were filled with fear. She did not dare to delay for a second.
Hearing Eunuch Cao's anxious voice, the hearts of the people in the court sank. The emperor's illness was coming back.
Their foreheads were covered in sweat. They bent their waists and did not dare to move. They were afraid that the tyrant in front of them would be displeased and behead them.
For the ministers, every time they went to court, it was like pacing back and forth in front of the King of Hell's palace because they never knew if they would be the next one to die.
He Ziyu, the Emperor of Qinxian Country, had suffered from migraines since he was a child. As he grew older, the migraines became more and more serious.
Once the headache started, the Emperor would become an incomparably brutal tyrant. Due to his migraines, the number of officials who had died under his hands in the past few years was incalculable.
He was a tyrant whose name struck fear in people's hearts. He was cruel and bloodthirsty, causing people to tremble in fear.
Eunuch Cao was also worried to death. The emperor had not been ill for several days. He thought that the emperor's illness had improved after drinking the medicine. How could it have started to relapse?
He didn't bring any medicine with him. What should he do?
Looking at the increasingly gloomy and forbearing expression on the young man's face, Eunuch Cao felt extremely unbearable. He was worried and afraid.
At this moment, everyone was like ants on a hot pan, completely at a loss for what to do.
They didn't dare to act rashly because the medicine hadn't arrived.
If they accidentally made any noise at this time, they could guarantee that the throne room would be bathed in blood again today.
In the throne room, the atmosphere was extremely oppressive. No one dared to breathe loudly. They were extremely scared.
But at this moment, the anxious and panicked voices of the guards guarding outside the throne room suddenly came. "Empress, Empress, you can't go in. The emperor, the emperor is in court …"
"Empress … Empress …"
