Bab 1465: Untitled

Holding Empress Dugu's hand, Emperor Wu said in a solemn voice, "Even you are concerned about my health, but that defiant son of mine… He wants to see me die from frustration, so that he can take the throne!"

That last bit was a very serious accusation!

Empress Dugu secretly rejoiced, but she feigned a terrified voice and said, "Your Majesty, please don't be mad! I'm sure that's not the crown prince's intention!"

The more she tried to appease Emperor Wu, the angrier he became!

"Since he doesn't want to go, then don't!" Emperor Wu waved his hand in vexation.

Seeing that things were getting out of hand, Granny Gong ran to the empress dowager for help.

The old lady was already in her carriage and couldn't be bothered to move around. However, she sat up in astonishment when she heard the news.

"Is the crown prince still not here?" The old lady's face darkened.
