Chapter 643 I Want Felix To Seed To The Throne (Part Two)
At the thought of this, the emperor shivered with anger. However, the empress believed that he was
shivering and couldn''t even pick up a brush pen only due to his ill health. The empress tried to assist
the emperor by dipping the brush in the ink and handing it over to him. The emperor looked at the
empress and nodded, but identally, the scroll was stained by the ink. His hands shook
uncontrobly.
"Somebody, go and fetch another empty scroll immediately," the empress ordered quickly, as she didn''t
want to wait any longer.
The emperor said with great frustration, "I didn''t expect my body to be so useless... I can''t even hold a
brush pen."
"Your Majesty, please don''t worry. You are just sick. Soon, you''ll recover and everything will be fine
then." The empressforted the emperor with a smile. Thetter was willing to write the edict to give
up the throne, and this was something she and her son had been hoping for so long. She was more
than willing to forgive the emperor for behaving so uselessly.
"Gloria, you are so sweet," the emperor said affectionately. "It''s said that when a man falls sick, he can
differentiate his foes from the ones who really care about him. Gloria, only you care about me and treat
me well."
The empress smiled mildly, but she was overjoyed in her heart. The only reason she took care of the
emperor in person was to pave the way for her son to ascend to the throne. Fortunately, the emperor
was very aware of his own health and was willing to hand over the throne to her son. Otherwise, she
would have already ordered people to kill him.
"Haven''t Franklin and other officials arrived yet?" the emperor asked weakly as he lifted his eyelids and
looked around slowly. It seemed he might pass out at any time. The empress was worried about it, so
she tried to distract him by saying, "Almost! Almost! We have sent people to call them all. Franklin andContent rights belong to N?velDrama.Org.
others will be here at any moment. It seems that Matthew and Harper would bete. They went to the
Holy Chant Temple to pray for you, but haven''t returned yet."
The emperor was outraged. He had always wanted Matthew to be out of his sight, but now, when he
needed him the most, he was absent!
A eunuch fetched a new nk scroll, and expecting that the emperor might stain it again, he even got a
few more copies with him. ncing at the eunuch who ced the scroll in his front, the emperor
pretended to beposed, and then he slowly wrote. But just after he finished a few words, the scroll
was stained by ink once again as his hand shook. The emperor seemed to be a little annoyed at his
own carelessness and beat himself hard on the back of his hand.
"Your Majesty, it doesn''t matter. You may change the scroll and rewrite once again." The empress
reced the scroll with another nk one. She held the pen in his hand and said, "Your Majesty, don''t
worry. We have enough time."
The emperor was taken aback. He was worried that his small trick might get exposed, but suddenly he
heard the eunuch''s announcement. "Grand Secretary Franklin, Prince Allen and General Maxwell are
here."
"Let them in," the emperor said coldly without putting down his pen.
As soon as the three of them came in, they immediately knelt down and kowtowed. "Long live, Your
Majesties!"
"Arise," the emperor ordered. He then put down his pen quickly and said, "Maxwell,e here."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Maxwell stood up, walked to the emperor''s side, and looked at the scroll on the
small table. Then he looked at the empress standing beside, feeling a bit surprised. Slowly, his
attention turned to Felix, who looked ted. Maxwell finally looked at the emperor''s face again and
realized that something was wrong.
"Maxwell, I order you to arrest the empress and Felix right now!"
the emperor suddenly roared. It took a while for Maxwell to react before he grabbed the empress. The
empress was quite shocked and didn''t know what was happening. Seeing the events unfolding, Felix
was even more confused.
"Father, what are you doing?"
"Guards, arrest this unfilial son!" The emperor was furious. Then he shouted at Allen, "Allen, arrest
Felix!"
Allen beckoned some guards to arrest Felix, who was paled with shock and fear. "Father, what did I
do? Why are you treating me like this?"
The emperor threw away the pen in his hand and got out of bed. He walked forward and kicked Felix
on his body, who then fell onto the floor. The emperor yelled, "What did you do? Don''t you know what
you and this bitch have done to me?"
The empress and Felix denied resolutely, although both their hearts were pounding fast.
"Your Majesty, I am sorry, but may I ask what wrong did Imit?" the empress asked in a quivering
voice.
"Father, I don''t know what you''re talking about. I have done nothing wrong."
"You don''t know?" The emperorughed so hard that he even choked and couldn''t stop coughing. Andy
hurried forward to support him. The emperor then said, "You two discussed letting me die of illness in
front of me and even poisoned my medicine. Have you both forgotten those things?"
The faces of both the empress and Felix turned deadly pale. They couldn''t believe that the emperor
had overheard their schemes. "You... You were awake then!"
"Of course I was awake. If I was still in aa, I would have already been dead by now!" The emperor
pped the empress hard. "You bitch! How dare you try to murder me! I''ll cut you into pieces and feed
you to my dogs!"
"Father, mercy. I''m sorry. Please forgive me." Felix was frightened and begged for mercy. He and his
mother plotted to murder the emperor, and their plot was overheard by none other than the emperor
himself. It meant that they would be convicted of an attempt to murder. Moments before, Felix was
about to be the emperor, but now he was a prisoner. He couldn''t believe such a cruel turn!
"Take him away and lock him in prison. Also, deprive his title as the crown prince!" the emperor
dered at once.
