Chapter 247 Soul Exchange Success
"Oh? Then my royal brother should ask my subordinates whether they agree or not."
At Li Siming's command, his men drew their swords one after another. These people were the death squads that the emperor had specially awarded to Xu Yingying.
Today, Xu Yingying heard that Li Siqi was going to enter the palace and was afraid that he would encounter danger, so she specially asked the death warriors to protect him. Unexpectedly, they came in handy now.
It was obvious that Li Siming also realized that the other party was a death warrior.
Li Siming's confidant glanced at Li Siming and then shook his head gently, signaling Li Siming not to act rashly.
The death squad is very powerful, one person can defeat ten.
Although Li Siming's side has the advantage in numbers, he may not be able to get an easy win against Li Siqi if a fight really breaks out.
Obviously, Li Siming also realized it.
After the two of them were in a stalemate for a while, Li Siming slowly gave way and said, "Ninth brother, what are you talking about? I was just joking with you. How could I not let you leave the palace?"
"This joke of yours, my royal brother, is not funny at all." Li Siqi snorted in dissatisfaction.
Then, Li Siqi said to his men behind him: "Let's go."
It wasn't until the carriage left the palace that Su Shengyuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Wangfu.
Li Siqi handed the "Soul-changing Secret Book" that he had finally found to Xu Yingying.
Xu Yingying took it with excitement, "Great, with it we can perform a ritual on the night of the full moon to bring back the emperor's soul."
Li Siqi also smiled with relief after hearing this.
During this period, Li Siming and the Imperial Noble Consort announced to the public that the emperor was ill, and Li Siming temporarily served as regent.
Of course, during the time that Li Siming was regent, he did not forget to target Li Siqi. He found fault with Li Siqi everywhere and made things difficult for Li Siqi at every turn.
No matter how well Li Siqi did, he would be reprimanded by Li Siming. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Li Siming was taking revenge on his own, but no one dared to stand up against Li Siming.
After all, Li Siming is the only powerful person in the court now. It is obviously irrational to go against him and you will not end up well.
Faced with Li Siming's difficulties, Li Siqi still restrained himself. He forced himself to swallow his anger, attract Li Siming's attention, and buy more time for Xu Yingying.
Xu Yingying had already made all the preparations and was just waiting for the full moon. Thinking of what Xu Yingying told him, Li Siqi looked at Li Siming's arrogant and domineering face and didn't feel how hateful he was.
The full moon day soon arrived, and at this time in the prince's mansion, Xu Yingying had already prepared the formation. When the moonlight shone on the center of the formation, Xu Yingying took action.
The secret book recorded it in great detail, and Xu Yingying quickly recalled the emperor's soul.
Looking at the man in the formation, Li Siqi's eyes were heavy, and no one knew what he was thinking, while that soul was staring blankly at Xu Yingying and Li Siqi in front of him.
Xu Yingying didn't notice the emperor's soul and was just concentrating on her own business.
This was her first time trying the art of resurrection, so she had to be extremely careful, otherwise the emperor's soul would really never return.
Fortunately, Xu Yingying had a strong ability to comprehend. Even though it was her first attempt, the emperor's soul returned to her body. But before the soul disappeared in the center of the formation, he opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but it was too late.
The emperor's body was still in the palace, and Li Siqi secretly sent servants to protect it. Perhaps because Li Siming was too arrogant, there was no one guarding the emperor, which gave Li Siqi an opportunity.
Li Siqi's men were guarding the emperor. When they saw that the emperor's eyes seemed to move, he was overjoyed, but he did not dare to make any sound for fear of disturbing the emperor's unstable soul.
Fortunately, the emperor's soul had not been away from his body for a long time, so the fusion of soul and body was relatively smooth.
Not long after, the emperor successfully woke up, but his body was still lying on the bed, so the emperor still needed to rest for a while after returning to life.
Fortunately, Li Siqi's people have been paying attention to and protecting the emperor, so there is no need to worry too much about the emperor's personal safety.
When the emperor woke up, he felt light all over, as if he was possessed by a cat. It was all a dream, and after coming to his senses, he sometimes couldn't help but stare blankly.
The emperor was recuperating in secret, and to the outside world, he was still seriously ill.
Not only the other ministers, but even Li Siming, the culprit who caused all this, didn't know that the emperor's soul had returned.
He was still in the court, abusing his power and doing his best to suppress Li Siqi.
Originally, the morning court was a discussion of national affairs, but now, it has become a one-man show for Li Siming, and he is suppressing Li Siqi.
The censors should have criticized Li Siming's deeds, but now they chose to go along with Li Siming. This was because Li Siming was the crown prince and acting as regent for the emperor. Almost all ministers thought that Li Siming was about to become the new emperor, so they naturally tried to curry favor with him, fearing that they would not even know how they died.
Even though Li Siqi was suppressed and humiliated, he just sat there and watched coldly as he saw Li Siming abusing his power for his own benefit. He was a little curious. If the emperor woke up and saw Li Siming like this, he wondered what he would think.
Seeing that Li Siqi was always tolerant of him, Li Siming thought that Li Siqi was afraid, and his suppression of Li Siqi became more and more excessive.
Li Siqi knew that Li Siming had always been unhappy with him. On the one hand, it was because of the grudge between the late queen and the Imperial Noble Consort, and on the other hand, the Emperor was very optimistic about his son Li Siqi. Li Siming had been taught by the Imperial Noble Consort to be narrow-minded since he was a child, and he regarded Li Siqi as a thorn in his side.
I don't know what gave Li Siming the illusion, but he became more and more unscrupulous in doing things. Previously, he only suppressed Li Siqi with words, but now he is completely planning to take action against Li Siqi.
At the morning court, Li Siqi merely refuted Li Siming's outrageous remarks, but he once again ran into Li Siming's trap.
"Oh? It seems that my brother is dissatisfied with what I said?"
"Your Highness, you are only acting as regent. When the emperor was in good health, I didn't dare to be so presumptuous with you. Now that the emperor is just seriously ill and recuperating, you are acting like this without paying attention to others. I'm afraid it's a bit inappropriate."
Upon hearing this, Li Siming's face turned completely dark.
"Li Siqi!" Li Siming was furious. "You are so bold! Since you don't take me seriously, I will teach you a lesson!"
