Sun Kui walked in and reported, "Your Majesty, Prince Han requests to see you."
The emperor appeared surprised, "Why is that rascal coming here?" It was already the hour of Xu in the evening, and the palace banquet at Zichen Hall had ended. "Let him in."
Soon, Sun Kui escorted Zhao Yao inside, then exited and stood guard at the door.
Upon entering, Zhao Yao asked directly, "Who poisoned you?"
The emperor was momentarily taken aback but then smiled, "What poison?"
Zhao Yao sat directly on the couch, his gaze sharp as he looked at the feigning emperor.
"Was it my eighth brother?"
The emperor's smile froze, and his expression quickly turned serious, "How do you know about my poisoning?"
"Never mind how I know." Zhao Yao said as he pulled a small porcelain bottle from his pocket and tossed it to the emperor, "This is a detoxification pill from Lingnan, capable of cleansing all but the most lethal poisons. Take it now."
