A few days after Empress Yan stayed at Ju's palace, the condition of Empress Yan's body gradually improved.
Even so, empress Yan was unwilling to say anything to everyone inside Ju's palace. It made Xiao Wei and the others feel extremely worried.
Tonight Empress Yan sat in front of her bedroom window. He stared at the not so round moon in the sky.
Her tears suddenly fell down the handkerchief she was holding. Even though he's been trying to show everyone that he's okay, he's not really okay.
His heart was broken, his body was tired of receiving all the blows and all of his dreams of being able to live happily with his noble emperor were also shattered.
"Should I give up all my love for you, your majesty?"
Empress Yan wiped away the tears that had already drenched her increasingly thin white cheeks.
Xiao Wei could only cry silently as she watched Empress Yan lament her grief.
**
The next day, a servant from the royal palace came with some food.
"Your Majesty Empress Yan. This is the food of the royal palace. His highness emperor Shun asked me to deliver this food to his highness empress Yan as an apology from his highness." Said the waiter who brought the food.
Empress Yan was silent, she stared at some of the food the maid had brought.
"Your Majesty, I better try it first." Xiao Wei.
"no need. Even though there is poison in this food, I will eat it. Your majesty the emperor will be so happy to see me die in his hands after eating this food." Said Empress Yan while still staring at all the food presented on the table.
The waiter who was carrying the food was stunned. He knew what was mixed up in the food, but he remained silent as if he knew nothing.
Empress Yan took the chopsticks and took the food and ate it.
Xiao Wei and the maid from the kingdom saw Empress Yan eating the food on the table.
After eating some of the food, Empress Yan put the chopsticks back down. He realized his body was starting to feel bad, he then looked at the waiter who was carrying the food earlier.
"The food is very good. You can bring the rest back." Said empress Yan.
He said it was because he did not want anyone else to die after eating the food.
"Okay, your highness the empress."
The waiter then put all the leftovers on the table into the box.
Empress Yan entered her room. He picked up a piece of paper and wrote something on it.
"Xiao Wei." Said empress Yan.
"I am here, your majesty."
Empress Yan gave the letter she wrote earlier to Xiao Wei.
"Bring this letter to my sister. Tell him to give it to the emperor's majesty."
Xiao Wei took the letter from empress Yan.
"Go now."
"But your highness.."
"Go, nothing will happen to me as long as you're gone."
Xiao Wei looked at the increasingly pale countenance of Empress Yan, she also saw a lot of sweat coming out of Empress Yan's body.
"I'll deliver the letter later. I'll make tea first for you."
"No, you have to go now. Xiao Wei, no matter what happens you must hand this letter to my sister. Youunderstand?"
Xiao Wei nodded in understanding.
Right now she did not want to leave empress Yan, but she was forced to leave because it was an order from empress Yan.
After Xiao Wei left, empress Yan walked over to the window.
"Xuan Long's. I just want you to be able to say once that you love me. Even if I die after that, I will accept that death happily." Empress Yan said softly.
Empress Yan felt that something was coming out of her nose, she then rubbed it with the handkerchief she always carried.
The fresh blood flowing out of his nose was now clinging to his handkerchief. Empress Yan's tears trickled down, as in the end she could not hear the love speech from emperor Shun's lips.
Empress Yan suddenly felt dizzy, her ears no longer heard anything and slowly her eyes began to shut.
Bruk!
Empress Yan fell on the floor.
A sound like an object falling from within the room of Empress Yan was heard from outside the room. The worried waiter opened the door and found the body of Empress Yan lying under the window.
"Your majesty! Your highness the empress!"
A few servants and bodyguards who heard the screams from within Empress Yan's room immediately rushed into the room.
"Hurry and help me, lift the empress and lie down on the bed." Said the waiter.
Some of the bodyguards who came immediately lifted and laid Empress Yan's body onto the bed.
"You, quickly go to the palace and call the palace physician here!" Said the servant again to a guard.
"Good."
The guard immediately went to summon the healer from the royal palace.
"Your Majesty please wake up. Her majesty the empress."
The servants inside Empress Yan's room were very worried, it was because Empress Yan's face was very pale. The maid also saw there was blood on the handkerchief that Empress Yan held.
30 Minutes later, neither the bodyguards nor the healers came. While Empress Yan's condition grew increasingly unfavorable, her face was pale and her lips began to turn blue.
Braak!
The door of Empress Yan's room was wide open.
"Your highness, your majesty!" Xiao Wei ran anxiously towards Empress Yan.
Seeing the condition of Empress Yan who was already like that, Xiao Wei was sure that the food that Empress Yan ate this morning did indeed contain poison. It was fortunate that she kept one of the dishes used by the palace maids serving food as proof that indeed Empress Yan was poisoned.
"Where is the physician, why is there no physician here?" Xiao Wei asked the servants who were there.
"I've asked the bodyguards to call the healer from the royal palace. But it's been over 30 minutes they haven't come yet."
"They won't come. Your Majesty, please hold on. Your honor."
Shortly after Xiao Wei returned, Qing Hao Min followed Xiao Wei by bringing the healer into the room of Empress Yan.
"Sister."
Min'er immediately knelt down in front of Empress Yan and clasped her brother's hand which was starting to feel cold.
"Prophet Han, please check on empress Yan's situation now." Min'er.
"Good young master."
The healer directly examined the state of Empress Yan, she also observed the changes and body temperature of empress Yan.
"Ampuni the servant of the young master, empress Yan was already exposed to poison. And the poison had already spread to half of Empress Yan's body."
"What's? The poison! How could Empress Yan be poisoned?"
Min'er looked at Xiao Wei as she was a servant who had accompanied Empress Yan since she was 10 years old.
"Puni the servant of the young master, I beg you to forgive the servant who has been negligent." Xiao Wei prostrated himself in front of Min'er while crying.
"Say who made food for Empress Yan this morning?"
"This morning suddenly a servant from the royal palace came carrying food. He said the food was sent on the orders of the emperor's majesty to Empress Yan as an apology."
"Emperor Shun."
Qing Hao Min clenched his hands tightly, he really hated the emperor of that Qin state a lot.
"Spread the news to the people that Empress Yan was poisoned at Ju's palace, after eating the food sent by the palace's servants." Min'er's orders to all the servants in Ju's palace.
"Good young master." Say them simultaneously.
This time Min'er wanted to see how the emperor reacted after the news spread in the society.
"Young master, I still keep the dishes used for that meal. Physician Han might be able to check on her." Xiao Wei.
"Well, bring the plate here."
Xiao Wei bowed then immediately picked up the plate he was referring to.
A little while later Xiao Wei returned with the plate she was holding.
"This is the plate that was put on when the maid put the food for Empress Yan."
Min'er received the plate.
"Tabib Han, please check this plate. Whether there's poison in it or not."
"Good young master. But before that you have to buy some medicinal ingredients to prevent the poison from flowing into the noble heart of Empress Yan first."
"I understand well."
Physician Han wrote some medicinal recipes and gave them to Qing Hao Min.
"These are medicines that can only be obtained at the drugstore that is at the end of the southwest street." Said physician Han.
"I understand well."
Qing Hao Min then called his trusted shadow bodyguard to buy the medicinal ingredients that were in the prescription.
Almost 20 minutes Han healer performed acupuncture on the body of empress Yan. After that he then checked the dishes brought by the servant Xiao Wei.
"There are traces of poison here, but not in large quantities."
"If not in large numbers, why is the state of Empress Yan like that?"
"The poison is a little, but if eaten with duck meat the poison will be a deadly poison." Physician Han explained.
"That means, empress Yan has eaten duck meat mixed with poison?"
"True young master."
Uhuk
Uhuk
Everything in the room was startled by the coughing sound of Empress Yan. They rushed up to the bed and saw Empress Yan spitting out a lot of blood from her mouth.
"Sister! Please hold on, brother. Brother!"
Qing Hao Min continued to call out to her brother and tried to wake up her brother who was no longer moving.
"Sister! Brother!"
"Your Majesty, I beg you, your majesty. Your honor."
The maidservants of Empress Yan cried while kneeling.

In a different world, a famous artist named Qing Lian An was attending the party of one of her best friends who was a fellow artist.
Qing Lian An is a famous artist who started her career from scratch, and she has never done anything that made her rise to an artist through the back lane.
That was what made Qing Lian An extremely liked by her fans. In addition to having good talent, he can also play. So that almost every action film he does not need a replacement role.
"An an, you look so pretty tonight. Looks like you're gonna be hot news again tomorrow." Say one of the artists to her.
"You also look very pretty, very much like that blue dress." Qing Lian An's.
"Ah really, thank you."
Qing Lian An who already understood very well how the nature of the artists, actors and models who came to the party was just ordinary. He did not want to interfere in their affairs as long as they did not make him dizzy.
"Sorry Miss Qing, someone wants to see you." Said a waiter.
"Who?"
"I don't know for sure. But he said he was your close friend."
"My close friend?"
Qing Lian An who felt she had no close friends other than a woman who invited her to a party was curious.
"Well, get me there."
"Please let Miss Qing follow me."
Qing Lian An then walked following the maid. They came out of the party room and rode on the top floor of the hotel in an elevator.
Qing Lian An's curiosity grew bigger, as they had to get out of the party room and head to the top floor of the star-rated hotel.
Ting
The waiter who escorted Qing Lian An walked out and opened the emergency exit where there was a staircase they had to climb to reach the top floor.
After arriving at a door, the waiter opened the door.
"Please Miss Qing. The one who wants to meet you is waiting for you."
Qing Lian An walked out through the door opened by the servant earlier.
There Qing Lian An was looking for people who wanted to meet her. He walked forward until he reached the end of the more than 30-story building.
"Where's the guy? And why meet here?" Qing Lian An's.
"Lian An."
Qing Lian An turned her head as soon as her name was called by someone.
"Liu May?"
"Yes it's me. I'm the one who wants to meet you."
"What do you want to say until we meet here?"
Liu Mei walked past Qing Lian An. He stared at the thousands of lights adorning the city from the top of the building.
"You must know, if I'm not going to quit before getting the number 1 artist nomination in the country."
"Your bridge is so big, and the road you're on is so steep. You know what I mean."
"Yes I know, because of that...."
Liu Mei walked up to Qing Lian An and smiled at him.
"I want to get it. But I can only get all that if...."
Liu Mei stopped saying, she quickly pushed Qing Lian An's body which was on the edge of the building so firmly that the unprepared Qing Lian An and wearing high heels were immediately pushed away.
Qing Lian An's body floated in the air, she saw Liu Mei getting further and further away from her.
"Goodbye Qing Lian An, I will replace you as the number 1 artist here. And you're... Go away quietly."
Qing Lian An who continued to fall down could only close her eyes, even if she was shouting or had martial arts, she realized that falling from such a tall building would definitely die.
"Liu Mei, in another life, I swear I will make people like you die in regret for harassing me."
Qing Lian An's body continued to descend rapidly and finally hit a car parked under the building.

At the Qing prime minister's house, several healers kept watch and gave the Yan empress medicine and acupuncture which were in a very bad condition.
Two days ago the Qing prime minister, who learned of the news of her daughter living in Ju's palace and also being poisoned, asked emperor Shun so that she could take care of Empress Yan in her residence.
Since emperor Shun did not want any more bad news for the kingdom, he decided to allow Empress Yan to be treated at the Qing prime minister's residence.
"How, is there any change to your highness empress?"
"It's not good, his body is weakened. I'm worried...."
"No way your majesty..."
Samar empress Yan who was already conscious heard many sounds echoing in her ears.
Empress Yan's hand moved, her eyes moving right and left.
"How is this, it is impossible that the noble empress...."
"Your Majesty, forgive me. Bring the servant along with the noble."
The sounds continued to be noisy, as if making the hearing of Empress Yan would break.
"Be quiet, why are you all so noisy?" Said empress Yan.
Everyone in Empress Yan's room was surprised to see Empress Yan sitting on the bed, not least the two healers who had taken care of Empress Yan.
"Your highness. His majesty. Thank goodness you're sober, Your Majesty. Long live a glorious life."
Qing Lian An who didn't know if her soul was inside someone else's body stared at everyone who was prostrating on her, she didn't know what they were saying and why they were doing it to her.
He looked at the room in front of him. A chair, pillars, bed and table. It all looks like she's filming a royal drama.
Then Qing Lian An looked at her own hands and the clothes she was wearing.
"Whose hand is this, and why am I wearing this shirt? Shouldn't I be dead from being pushed by Liu Mei from the top of the building?"
Back Qing Lian An looked around, she also looked at the people who were still prostrating while saying a word of gratitude to her.
"Sister."
Qing Lian An turned her head as a man came inside and called out to sister.
Qing Lian An's body was immediately embraced by the man. He who was still confused became even more confused. But as he was hugged a memory flashed through his mind.
All the ill-treatment that emperor Shun had done to Qing Lian (the original body owner), the love that was so deep in him to emperor Shun, how his parents treated him, and how his parents treated him, and what was Qing Lian's life like inside the royal palace. It all goes into his memory.
"Sister, sister. You okay?"
The question that was asked to Qing Lian An resuscitated her. He looked at the man in front of him.
"So right now I'm inside the body of an empress Yan. And our names are very similar. Then this man in front of me was... My brother."
"Sister, tell me something. Physician please check back the noble empress." Qing Hao Min.
"Good young master."
"no need. I'm it's okay. I'm feeling really good right now."
"Sister, you've been unconscious for three days. How can you say okay? Let physician Han check your condition."
Empress Yan held Qing Hao Min's hand "I'm really fine."
Qing Hao Min looked at her brother's face that had been three days unconscious. She really felt very worried that her brother would never wake up again.
"Qing Lian, you rest in peace. I'll avenge the pain you feel for that little fellow named Xuan Long. And I'll also replace you to take care of this good sister."
