Before Tang San could finish speaking, something strange happened behind him.

Emperor Xueye suddenly sat up, spitting out a mouthful of black blood. His aura plummeted, and his pulse disappeared.

The imperial physician was shocked and immediately activated his martial spirit to use a healing soul skill on him.

Xue Qinghe immediately became anxious and hurriedly asked, "What exactly happened? Why did this happen?"

The imperial physicians rushed forward, each employing their unique skills in an attempt to pull Emperor Xueye back from the brink of death.

Unfortunately, the multicolored poison had already entered his body. Even an ordinary Title Douluo would be poisoned, let alone Xue Ye.

Gu Rong shook his head slightly and sighed, "His Majesty's life force has completely disappeared; there's no hope."

Tang San stared blankly at the scene.

Emperor Xueye's condition had clearly improved, so why did he suddenly die?

Could it be that the toxins he failed to detect contained ingredients that conflicted with his prescription?

But that doesn't make sense. The prescription he presented was the product of Tang Sect's research over a thousand years. The herbs in it would not react with any poisons and were a universal antidote.

Suddenly, Tang San thought of something.

The appearance of Bone Douluo was definitely not accidental; he must have been behind it all.

Xue Qinghe is just one step away from ascending the throne, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School must be getting impatient.

But right now, he wants to accuse Gu Rong, but he has no evidence.

After all, more than one imperial physician was present when the medicine was being prepared. None of these physicians testified; how could he possibly raise the issue?
His immediate priority was to check on Emperor Xueye's physical condition and see if there were any remedial measures.

However, before he could get close, the imperial physicians hurled insults at him, "His Majesty was already on his deathbed, and you actually poisoned him! You traitor who murdered his father and killed his emperor, I'll fight you to the death!"

If the Snow Emperor were to die a natural death, the imperial physicians would be able to keep their jobs.

After all, birth, aging, sickness, and death are the natural course of life, and cannot be changed. But Tang San diagnosed him with poisoning, and then poisoned Emperor Xue Ye, which resulted in him truly dying from poisoning.

The imperial physicians were responsible for failing to stop Tang San from poisoning the body.

Afterwards, they no longer hoped to keep their jobs; they were just glad to have survived.

Xue Qinghe's face was contorted with rage: "Tang Yin, I trusted you so much, yet you poisoned my father!"

"Guards, seize him! You had better explain to me who ordered this, or don't blame me for being impolite."

Tang San was speechless and stood frozen in place until he was captured by the guards, at which point he belatedly realized what had happened.

It’s over.

At this moment, he finally understood Xue Qinghe's true intentions.

The imperial physicians remained tight-lipped about Emperor Xueye's poisoning, clearly indicating their unwillingness to take responsibility.

Now, not only has he spoken out, but he has also boasted about prescribing medicine for Emperor Xueye. This has undoubtedly given him ammunition for criticism.

More importantly, the prescription itself contained poison. Combined with the previous statement, this undoubtedly confirmed the charge.

Xue Qinghe wanted to rise to power, but he didn't want to bear the infamy of regicide and patricide, so he became the perfect scapegoat!
Unfortunately, Tang San was blinded by hatred and only thought about supporting Prince Xue Xing to ascend the throne in order to maximize his own interests. He never imagined that he himself had already become a sitting duck.

Not many people knew about this, but when they came to the palace, only Tang Yuehua knew.

If he is imprisoned this time, he will probably never see the light of day again. Xue Qinghe will definitely pin the charge of regicide on him to appease public anger.

No, absolutely not.

Tang San was about to resist when he saw Bone Douluo glaring at him menacingly, and he immediately lost his temper.

Ultimately, he was escorted out of the palace by guards.

Xue Qinghe's face was extremely gloomy, and the entire palace was filled with the weeping of members of the royal family.

Xue Qinghe clenched his fists and said fiercely, "Father, I will definitely get justice for you!"

Beside him, Bone Douluo knelt on one knee and advised, "Your Highness, a country cannot be without a ruler for a day." "His Majesty's departure has caused us, his subjects, immense grief, but we must not allow outsiders to take advantage of the situation. You must take charge of the overall situation."

In addition to members of the royal family, some officials of the empire were also present.

Faced with Bone Douluo's proposal, these people knew that this was an opportunity to show their loyalty to the new emperor.

A new emperor brings a new court, and no one wants to lose their current position after the change of power. So they all work harder than the last.

Some were willing to contribute money and effort to help Emperor Xueye hold his funeral, while others volunteered to maintain order within the empire.

Xue Qinghe hesitated slightly before saying, "I appreciate everyone's kindness, but my father has just been murdered, and I really have no mood to deal with state affairs. We will discuss this matter another day."

The officials quickly exclaimed, "Your Highness, you mustn't!"

"The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family has been wiped out, and the culprit has yet to be found."

"The Empire is surrounded by the Star Luo Empire on the outside and hampered by unknown powerful figures on the inside. If no one is in charge of the government, the future of the Empire will be ruined."

"Your Highness, please consider the bigger picture."

After three attempts to persuade him, Xue Qinghe finally agreed.

However, his decision was to continue to act as the Crown Prince and temporarily manage state affairs until the funeral of Emperor Xueye was completed.

We will consider the matter of ascending the throne after the late emperor is buried.

……

Before Xue Qinghe and the others could discuss the details of the funeral, a powerful fluctuation of soul power emanated from outside the palace.

The person who arrived was none other than Tang Xiao.

Today, he went out to contact Tang Yuehua, intending to inquire about the situation on the mainland.

After learning Tang San's whereabouts from the latter, Tang Xiao knew he was in trouble.

At times like these, anyone who dares to enter the palace to treat Emperor Xueye's illness will become a scapegoat.

If he recovers, everything will be fine. But if he doesn't recover, Tang San will bear at least half the blame for the death of Emperor Xueye.

Father, like son.

Tang Xiao didn't have time to think, so he immediately chased after the palace and bumped into Tang San being escorted out.

He knew things were going badly. If Tang San were imprisoned, it would be difficult to rescue him. So he simply took action and killed the group of guards.

A guard rushed to the palace to report, "Your Highness, something terrible has happened! A Title Douluo with the Clear Sky Hammer has ambushed our team and rescued Tang Yin."

Upon hearing this news, Xue Qinghe was overjoyed.

Originally, since the Haotian Sect had closed its doors to the world, the two sides had been at peace, and even if one wanted to take action against it, there was no suitable reason to do so.

The fact that the people of the Haotian Sect are now colluding with the thieves who attempted to assassinate Emperor Xueye is a clear case of "confessing without being asked."

However, his face still showed a look of grief and indignation.

"Your Majesty Bone Douluo, I implore you to capture the murderer and seek justice for my father."

"We implore Your Majesty Bone Douluo to seek justice for His Majesty." Everyone present knelt down in unison.

Gu Rong sneered, "I'd like to see just what the Haotian Sect is capable of."

After saying that, he disappeared from the spot.

Originally, the plan was to set a trap for Tang San and remove Yuexuan, this thorn in his side.

But unexpectedly, they also managed to expose the Haotian Sect, a big fish.

Gu Rong's purpose in going there was not to actually capture the powerful figures from the Haotian Sect, but rather to confirm their identities and prepare for the next step of the operation. (End of Chapter)
