"It's alright! Father is in good health..."

Before Su Xuandou could finish his sentence, his expression changed, and he suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood.

"Father!"

Princess Chiling hurriedly ran over to help Su Xuandou.

"His Majesty is vomiting blood!"

"Quickly summon the imperial physician!"

"Quickly help His Majesty back to rest!"

The palace maids and eunuchs were all in a flurry of activity.

"Stop!"

However, Su Xuandou stopped the others from making a ruckus.

His face grew even paler, and he sighed, "I know my own body very well; I'm afraid my time is up."

"Father!"

Princess Chiling's tears fell incessantly.

"His Majesty!"

The maids and eunuchs cried out in despair.

At this moment, a dozen or so elegantly dressed middle-aged women, having also heard the news, quickly arrived at the palace.

Their demeanor was elegant and noble; though not quite old and faded, they were close enough to be Su Xuandou's empress and concubines.

"Your Majesty, you can't abandon us!"

"Yes! What will we do if you leave!"

The empress and her concubines all burst into tears.

"Cough cough..."

Su Xuandou coughed as he grasped the Empress's slightly wrinkled hand.

"Life and death are predestined, so the Empress and her beloved concubines need not worry too much about it."

Su Xuandou said weakly.

This scene was truly heartbreaking; it could bring tears to the eyes of anyone who saw it and sadden anyone who heard it.

The palace masters, including Liu Danfeng and Han Mu, were all deeply moved.

Lin Xiao frowned slightly, seemingly lost in thought.

"I have enjoyed all the riches and honors of my life, and with you all by my side, I am already very satisfied."

At this moment, Su Xuandou added, "My only regret is that Lingyin has not yet found a home, and I am still worried about her!"

"This……"

The Empress couldn't help but ask, "Does Your Majesty have any preferred candidates for a consort?"

Su Xuandou looked at Lin Xiao and said, "I think the Holy Son is quite good."

"Father..."

Princess Chiling was both ashamed and anxious.

I don't know how the topic suddenly came up again with my marriage.

The Empress also looked at the Holy Son Yaoguang. After gracefully bowing, she said, "Holy Son, look, His Majesty is about to pass away."

"Why don't you grant him his wish before he left?"

All eyes in the palace turned to Lin Xiao.

The palace masters, including Liu Danfeng, were also at a loss for words.

"Holy Son, you and Lingyin are a perfect match, a match made in heaven!"

"Your Highness, you can at least try to deceive His Majesty!"

“Look at His Majesty, how miserable he is.”

"Do you really want His Majesty to die with his eyes open in disgrace?"

A group of concubines, wiping away tears, looked at Lin Xiao pleadingly.

"What a clever way to force marriage!"

Si Lanqi's heart stirred slightly; she had already discerned some clues.

At this moment, Lin Xiao slowly stood up and said, "Gentlemen, shouldn't we be saving His Majesty first?"

"No... there's no need to save him."

Su Xuandou hurriedly said, "I know my own body best; there's no way to save me."

"Your Majesty, His Majesty has already damaged his very essence; I fear even medicine cannot cure him!" the Empress said, wiping away her tears.

"Not necessarily!"

Lin Xiao shook his head and said, "I think His Majesty can still be saved."

"Is what the Holy Son said true?"

Princess Chiling's eyes brightened slightly.

“If the princess trusts me, why don’t we move outside the palace and wait?” Lin Xiao said.

The following scene may be somewhat gory, so it's best not to let Princess Chiling see it.

"Well... okay!"

Princess Chiling hesitated for a moment, then nodded, choosing to trust Lin Xiao.

"This silly girl..."

Su Xuandou watched Princess Chiling's departing figure, his lips twitching slightly.

At this moment, Lin Xiao had already arrived in front of Su Xuandou.

"Ugh!"

"Poor old man like me, all alone!"

Su Xuandou immediately let out a long sigh.

"..."

Lin Xiao also admired Su Xuandou's shamelessness.

Surrounded by a group of concubines, he still dared to call himself a lonely old man.

Is it illegal to lie through your teeth?

"Empresses and Imperial Concubines, I am absolutely confident that I can cure His Majesty's illness."

Lin Xiao ignored Su Xuandou and instead addressed the Empress and the others.

"Really...really?"

The empress and imperial concubines all looked on with surprise and doubt.

Although cooperating with Su Xuandou in acting is important, it is far less important than healing Su Xuandou's injuries and illnesses.

Chapter 210 Su Xuandou was almost scared to death

“Holy Son, Su Xuandou has not only damaged his source.”

"Within his body, there is a very strange power that is constantly devouring his life force."

"His body is like a bottomless pit now; no matter how many rare and precious treasures are poured into it, it will be useless."

"With injuries like these, it's basically a death sentence..."

Liu Danfeng, Yan Xiangtong, and others have already checked on Su Xuandou's injuries.

Upon realizing that Lin Xiao was about to make a move, they all secretly communicated with each other.

He was advised not to make empty promises.

To avoid being proven wrong if we can't cure Su Xuandou.

"Rest assured, my esteemed palace masters, I have everything under control!"

Lin Xiao remained calm.

He then looked at the Empress and said, "I can cure Your Majesty, but it will require Your Majesty's and everyone's full cooperation."

"Your Majesty, I will do anything as long as His Majesty can be cured."

"Yes, yes, yes!"

"We will definitely cooperate fully."

The empress and imperial concubines nodded hastily.

Nothing is more important than healing Su Xuandou.

Therefore, they no longer cooperated with Su Xuandou in his acting.

Only Su Xuandou looked on with suspicion and uncertainty, and he had a bad feeling about it.

"That's settled then!"

Lin Xiao said with a smile.

The resurrection pills awarded by the system can even bring the dead back to life, so saving Su Xuandou is naturally a piece of cake.

However, simply handing over the Resurrection Pill would be too easy on Su Xuandou.

Especially that old guy, he even set a trap for him tonight.

First, he kept pouring wine into his mouth, then took the opportunity to vomit blood, and even arranged for the empress and imperial concubines to come and make fun of him!

This tactic of playing the victim card is truly impressive.

"Your Majesty, please take off your clothes first!"
