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 accidentally, the scroll was stained by the ink. His hands
shook uncontrollably.
"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 empress
comforted the emperor with a smile. The latter 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 and others will be here at any moment. It seems that Matthew and Harper
would be late. 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
blank scroll, and expecting that the emperor might stain it again, he even got a few more copies with him. Glancing at the eunuch
who placed the scroll in his front, the emperor pretended to be composed, 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 replaced the scroll with another blank 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, come 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 elated. 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 I commit?" 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 emperor laughed 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 a coma, I would have already been dead by now!" The emperor slapped 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 become 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 declared at once.
