"O-okay.....I-I'm okay imperial father it's just that I was not to well after eating the things given to me by chief Xavier yesterday" said Kevin after exiting the hug.
"sniff.... chief Xavier who is he?" asked the emperor to Tiana the personal maid of the fourth imperial child.
(Note: fourth born, and second male so from now on he will be the second imperial prince) .
"Your highness he's the head eneuch under the E-Empress, now...."she stopped her sentence short noticing the murderous aura oozing from the Emperor; we have to remind you that for one to be the emperor one should always be a Grand-knight and achieved some battle merits so you can imagine her state and that of the servant near her they were about to kneel from the pressure but were lucky because he immediately retracted it; however no one noticed an anomaly the second imperial prince was not out of BREATH, just having some sweat dropping from his face and having flinched a little.
"Fuu~u, sorry for the outburst I think by now you appear somewhat fine; what do you think chief of medics?" the emperor apologised after having checked the state of his son send the medic to verify and began to think on his own.
Hearing the emperor request and having come with some tools in his bag Dai Ming, began to do some tests to confirm the state of Kévin. After ten minutes checks he was finally relieved because from what he's recorded in his notes the prince is fine." He's alright your majesty; second prince what were you feeling at the time before your lost of consciousness ?"
" I was feeling suffocated because the right part of my chest ached a lot like if something was eating at it from the inside so that I couldn't breath properly; now that you mention it can you leave me a bit of space becaus- cough...cough....BLURGH!!!" Slowly Kévin began to cough then vomited some litters of black blood from his mouth and also his nose. Tiana took a handkerchief from one of her pockets to wipe Kévin's face before looking at the blood on the floor something that brought dread to the faces of all beside the prince because those present in this room were aware either because of the rumours or because they were there when the second wife was being treated of how she had been having the same symptoms even the blood coughs because in her case they were regulars which brought them to the conclusion that the last case and this one were not sicknesses but blatant attempts at their lives.
"Okay, you all listen to me : I don't want this incident to make rumours outside if not you'll all be severely punished as if for betrayal against the empire" , the emperor's face was stern when talking while in his head he was thinking of investigating all his children and wives particularly the incidents related to them ".
"Yes your Imperial Majesty".
