After Mistakenly Binding The Matchmaker System

Tyrants Beloved (30.2)

These days, he had pushed aside all other matters, focusing all his attention on the blood samples taken from Concubine Luo. He went there several times in the process, and finally managed to figure out something.

Since this substance was acting on two people simultaneously, studying only Concubine Luo wouldn't be enough. So, after finding some clues, he immediately brought people to Li mansion.

Li Shu cooperated with the whole process of taking blood and his pulse. Seeing the dark shadows under Doctor Lin's eyes, he advised, "Doctor Lin, don't overexert yourself. If you ruin your health because of this matter, how can I face myself in the future?"

"It's fine, it's fine." Doctor Lin waved his hand. He was devoted to medical arts throughout his life, especially researching difficult and complicated illnesses. This time, he encountered something he had never seen before, and he couldn't help but feel excited, unknowingly spending more time than usual.

"As you know, I'm the kind of person who can't resist when encountering strange illnesses. Even if this matter didn't happen to you, I would still thoroughly study it."

Indeed, Doctor Lin had always been like this. The original owner's illness wasn't caused solely by poor conditions; it resulted from the mother's poisoning during pregnancy. The toxin passed to the fetus, causing abnormalities and forming a new poison that lurked inside the child's body, which was difficult to detect.

If it weren't for Doctor Lin's excellent medical skills and his timely use of medicine every time the original owner fell ill, the original owner would have left the world early as Concubine Luo wished, long before Li Shu arrived.

Prince Yu's Mansion.

"Your Highness, everything has been arranged. We are just waiting for Your Highness's command to start." A trusted confidant and a master of schemes fanned himself with a feathered fan as he calmly reported to the prince.

On the chessboard, the black pieces were surrounded by the white ones, with no way out.

The man in a bright yellow court robe stood with hands behind his back, facing his confidant standing at the window. After a moment of silence, he asked, "Do you think I can succeed?"

This was treason. He had never thought that he would walk down such a path one day.

"Why worry, Your Highness? Both inside and outside the palace, everyone is on our side. Once successful, Your Highness will be the master of Great Zhou!"

"You're right. The court is in such chaos now. Father is seriously ill and is incapable of managing the situation. It's better to hand over power."

He didn't want to come to this point. If his father hadn't stubbornly clung to power, if his elder brother hadn't been relentlessly pursuing him from behind, he wouldn't have to take this step.

At this point, the relationship between him and his elder brother had become irreconcilable. If his elder brother ascended successfully, his future could be easily imagined. Just for this reason, he had to make a desperate attempt.

"Convey my order; take action tonight!"

After days of scorching heat, the capital finally welcomed the first rain.

Low hanging dark clouds covered the sky, strong winds blew, and raindrops pattered on the eaves. Li Shu stood on the porch, and Qi Mingxuan stood beside him holding an umbrella.

Li Shu looked into the distance, and Qi Mingxuan watched him. Neither of them spoke.

As the sky darkened, the rain showed no sign of decreasing. Flashes of light could be seen in the distance, and the sounds of fighting were perfectly masked by this heavy rain. Qi Mingxuan and Li Shu seemed like two unrelated spectators, observing from a distance.
