The Emperor spent a large amount of time refining medicine and he was also obsessed with women recently. Therefore, he looked quite weak and low-spirited.
However, due to his condition, he thought a lot about it after the Empress told him a few words.
Since the prince had been eyeing on his throne, he had been impatient and disgusted. After hearing from Empress Murong, without any inspection, he went straight to the Retired Emperor's study room.
The Retired Emperor's anger had yet to vanish. He laughed uncontrollably after listening to the Emperor's words, "So, you're saying that Jue Er is plotting treason to seize your throne? Out of all places, Little Seven went outside the village and he is now caught?"
The Emperor was a mediocre man with a timid personality. He would have never got the throne years ago if he never had his good son.
He was aware that the reason the Retired Emperor supported him in getting the throne was because of his son.
