Forensic Imperial Concubine

"Mother, what is that?" Felix asked, feeling a bit confused.
"Your father's poison!" the empress exclaimed. "He has killed countless people with this poison all his life, and now I would like to
use his own poison to end his life. It would be a decent way to die even for someone like him."
Hearing this made the emperor's blood boil. As soon as he woke up, he heard how the empress egged on Felix to kill him. And
as if that wasn't bad enough, Felix actually agreed to it. Now, the empress was even planning to use his own poison to kill him. If
he continued to stay in a coma, he would most certainly die. But if they were to find out that he was awake right now, that would
also mean death for him!
At that moment, all the emperor could do was to pray that someone else would come here so that he could wake up. The
empress mentioned that she wouldn't kill him until three days later, which meant he still had some time. However, his chances of
making it out alive would be very slim if the empress were to begin poisoning him from here on out!
"Your Majesty, it's now time for His Majesty to take his medicine." A maid walked in and brought the medicine to the empress.
This made the emperor's heart leap to his throat. After all, taking medicine was just about the last thing he wanted to do right
now.
Without delay, the empress took the bowl, beckoning her maid to leave. Seeing this, the maid left the room at once. After putting
down the bowl, she opened the vial, poured a small amount of poison into it and stirred it. "Felix, help your father up. I will feed
him myself."
"Yes, Mother."
Felix immediately helped the emperor up. At that moment, the emperor was so scared at his wit's end that he didn't dare to move
a muscle. He desperately wanted to grit his teeth as the empress fed him the medicine, but he couldn't risk making the empress
suspicious. Feeling so helpless, he had no other choice but to drink it. That being said, he tried to spit out as much as he could.
After a while, the empress finally finished feeding him the entire bowl. Although a lot of the medicine had been spilled, the
emperor had still drunk a considerable amount. This had put the empress in a good mood. If she continued mixing in a little
poison in the medicine every day, the emperor would be dead in three days. No one would be able to find out that it was her who
had poisoned the emperor!
Watching the emperor lying motionless on the bed, Harper almost couldn't hold back her laughter. The emperor had a habit of
poisoning people. Now, he finally had a taste of his own medicine. To make matters worse, it had been fed to him by his own

wife, the empress. Harper was so eager to find out how the emperor felt.
As he looked at Harper who was trying to hold back her laughter, Matthew couldn't help but smile silently. Those who had done
wrong always got their just deserts. The emperor had just been given a dose of his own medicine. However, the empress and
Felix would get themselves in trouble this time.
"That should be enough for now. The show is over. It's time for us to leave." Wrapping his arm around Harper's waist, Matthew
left the Tranquil Hall with her in silence.
The empress had moved into the Tranquil Hall, but she didn't take care of the emperor herself all the time. Andy was actually the
one who looked after the emperor. But for some reason, the empress would always ask him to leave whenever she was there.
"Andy, please take good care of His Majesty."
"Yes, Your Majesty." After watching the empress and Felix leave, he brought in some hot water to wipe the emperor's body.
"Your Majesty, please wake up. If you don't wake up any time soon, I'm afraid that something really bad is going to happen,"
Andy whispered under his breath as he wiped down the emperor's body. In truth, he was well aware of what the empress and
Felix were thinking. If the emperor didn't regain consciousness as soon as possible, there was a good chance that they'd do
something to harm him.
After all, Felix was the heir to the throne. If the emperor died, the crown prince would be the one next in line to inherit the throne.
For that reason, Felix would definitely benefit more from a dead emperor than a living one.
The emperor didn't dare to move. He had been in a coma for many days now. He believed that the empress must've replaced
the servants of his palace, meaning he was now surrounded by the empress's people. These people would inform her about his
every move. On top of that, if the empress and Felix were to find out that he woke up right after they left, they might suspect that
he overheard the conversation they had in his bedroom and would try to kill him by any means possible.
Never had the emperor suspected that the one he shared his bed with would actually want to take his life using his own poison.
The thought of this left him fuming with intense anger deep inside. At that moment, he wanted to shout, to curse, to kill them, but
he couldn't. Without much of a choice, he had to lie there and act as if he were still in a coma.
It was Andy who looked after the emperor in the evening. The emperor didn't move until it was already in the middle of the night.
He managed to move his hand, but Andy had already dozed off so he didn't notice it.

When the emperor finally opened his eyes, he found out that Andy fell asleep. Gritting his teeth, he closed his eyes once more
and mumbled, "Water, water..."
Although there was no strength in his voice, that was enough to wake Andy up. Hearing the emperor speaking surprised and
excited him. So, Andy quickly poured a cup of water, ran to the emperor's side and helped him up to let him drink it.
"Your Majesty, you have finally regained consciousness! Your majesty is awake!" Andy yelled out. The guards of the Tranquil Hall
were alarmed when they heard Andy's scream. This made the emperor so furious that he wanted to slap Andy so badly. The
empress was up to no good and Andy knew that full well. How careless and foolish could Andy be to create such a commotion?
Now, the empress probably knew that he was awake.
At that time, the empress was sound asleep. But the moment she heard that the emperor woke up, she was so surprised that her
sleepiness had disappeared completely. Felix, on the other hand, hadn't returned to his own mansion yet. Instead, he decided to
sleep in the side hall, which made it more convenient for him to read the files and attend the imperial court session. When he
heard that the emperor woke up, he headed straight toward the main hall. With every step that he took, he could feel the
butterflies fluttering terribly in his stomach. Now that the emperor had woken up, how was his plan supposed to work?
