Yu Yiluo transmigrated into a book. Before she could even be happy about it, she discovered she had transmigrated as the little princess who was labeled a freak by the tyrant and sentenced to death...
Nanny Chang raised her head and glanced at the prince, her thoughts gradually drifting away and she fell into memories.
"Back then, the Empress and Noble Concubine Fang were both pregnant at the same time. The Empress kindly allowed Noble Concubine Fang to live in her palace so that they could look after each other and chat together.
The women in the harem are extremely dangerous, not to mention that they are pregnant. If anything happens to Concubine Fang, the Empress will definitely be responsible.
So I tried to persuade Her Majesty, but she wouldn't listen. So I had no choice but to bring Concubine Fang over. At first, everything was fine, and Her Majesty felt much better because she had a good sister like Concubine Fang around, and I gradually felt relieved.
Having said this, Nanny Chang paused, a look of regret appeared on her face, and she continued her story.
"Until the day of delivery, which was a night of thunder and rain, Concubine Fang suddenly had a severe stomachache. I knew she was about to give birth, so I went to find a midwife to help deliver the baby.
The Empress was worried that something might happen to Concubine Fang, so she asked an old servant to go and help, and she herself was there to comfort Concubine Fang. Concubine Fang's child was born, but it was stillborn, and she kept crying while holding the child.
The queen couldn't bear it and went forward to comfort her. At this time, the queen's stomach began to hurt, and the servant helped her lie down on the bed next to her. Everyone began to rush to help the queen deliver the baby. With the baby's cry, the queen gave birth to a little prince.
She glanced at the little prince, listened to Concubine Fang crying beside her, and asked the old servant to go and invite the emperor over. But the emperor happened to be out of the palace that day, and the old servant did not see the emperor.
When this old servant returned to the Madam's palace, he saw Concubine Fang with a sinister smile on her face, covering the Madam's mouth and nose with a pillow. The Madam struggled constantly, but the more she struggled, the harder Concubine Fang pushed.
The atmosphere in the imperial study became very heavy, and as Nanny Chang spoke, an atmosphere of grief filled the air.
Nanny Chang sniffed, her voice a little hoarse, "I was behind the screen at the time. When I wanted to step forward to stop Concubine Fang, the Queen noticed me, shook her head at me, and told me not to go out.
This old servant could only raise his hand to cover her mouth, fearing that any sound would be discovered by Concubine Fang, and watched as the Empress was suffocated to death.
She knew why the Empress didn't let her go out. If she really went out, she would be killed if discovered by Concubine Fang. Then the life and death of the little prince that the Empress had worked so hard to give birth to would be in danger.
Because at that time, the people around the Empress had been sent away by Concubine Fang and replaced by her own people.
"The Emperor knows what happened afterwards," Nanny Chang collected her thoughts and wiped away her tears. "Noble Concubine Fang switched the two children and told the Emperor that the Empress died of childbirth complications. But by then, two days had passed, and everyone who should have been silenced had been silenced by Noble Concubine Fang."
Yu Yiluo sighed in her heart, looking at the prince standing below her, wanting to raise her hand and pat his shoulder.
"Don't be sad, Crown Prince. Empress Lu loves you. It's precisely because of her love for you that she didn't let Nanny Chang go out and get discovered. She was using the little power she had to protect you."
"Come here, bring over that vicious queen and Nanny Zhu."
......
The guards received the order and went to the queen's bedroom, pushing the door open and entering.
"How dare you break into the Queen's bedroom."
Lanzhi heard the voice, walked over and scolded him harshly.
"The Emperor asked us to take the Empress to the Imperial Study so she doesn't interfere with official business."
The leader pushed Lanzhi aside and went straight inside.
The queen heard the footsteps and looked at the guards who came over indifferently.
"The Emperor asked me to go, what is the reason?"
No one answered her question.
"Your Majesty, please!"
The queen raised her eyebrows slightly and walked out.
The feeling of uneasiness became stronger and stronger, and she couldn't ignore it even if she wanted to.
"Lanzhi," she turned to look at Lanzhi, who was looking anxious behind her, "If I can't come back this time, you can take the silver and leave the palace!"
......
At the entrance of the imperial study.
Nanny Zhu, who was also brought here, was delighted when she saw the queen.
"Your Majesty, has the Emperor released you?"
"Hurry in."
The guard pushed her impatiently.
Nanny Zhu has not yet realized the seriousness of the matter. She has been locked up in the woodshed these days and is only given one meal a day. Now that the Queen Mother has come out, she has to tell the Queen Mother about this and let her give the Prince a good lecture to vent her anger.
"Your Majesty, the person has been brought here."
The queen raised her chin slightly, and her pupils dilated when she saw Nanny Chang, and she was shocked.
Why is this slut here? Didn’t Madam Zhu get dealt with?
"Ahhh, ghost, ghost." Madam Zhu pointed at Madam Chang beside her, and was so frightened that she couldn't speak clearly. "You, you are dead, ghost, you are a ghost."
She wouldn't be wrong. This man was clearly dead at that time, so how could he appear in the palace again? Was he here to seek revenge on her?
"Madam Zhu, open your eyes and see clearly. This is a human. How could a ghost come out in broad daylight?" The queen frowned and said unhappily.
A fool who is more likely to cause trouble than to accomplish anything.
"Your Majesty," she said, bowing gently. "Your Majesty sent for me to come here. Could it be because of this old friend, Nanny Chang?"
The Emperor snorted coldly and said sarcastically, "The Queen actually recognized Nanny Chang. She really has a good memory."
As if she didn't hear the sarcasm in his words, the queen glanced at Nanny Chang with a smile, her tone normal, but the handkerchief in her hand was pulled out of shape by her.
"I had a close relationship with the Queen Sister back then, and I lived in the Queen Sister's palace when I was pregnant with the Crown Prince. Naturally, I will not forget Madam Chang."
[What a shame! He killed someone and still had the nerve to call her "Empress Lu, sister." He's truly shameless and unbeatable.]
"You vicious woman! The Queen kindly took you to her palace, but you killed her and took the prince away. Now you even have the nerve to call the Queen sister."
Nanny Chang glared at the queen fiercely, wishing she could tear her hypocritical face apart.
"Madame Chang, I know you are very sad to know that the Queen has died, but you cannot falsely accuse me without any evidence."
Nanny Chang was almost laughing out of anger, "The Queen shouldn't have let you live in her palace back then, and she shouldn't have been soft-hearted towards a heartless person like you."
A hint of hatred flashed in the queen's eyes, and the knuckles of her hands, which were pinching the handkerchief, turned white.
Then he looked at the prince, who had his eyebrows drooped, exuding grief, and said nothing.
"Prince, do you also think that you are not my child?"
The emperor slammed the teacup in his hand heavily at her feet.
"That's enough. Nanny Chang has already told you what happened back then. It doesn't matter if you're stubborn. I have plenty of ways to make you talk."
The queen laughed softly and looked at the emperor with tears in her eyes.
"Could it be that the love between husband and wife for more than ten years is not as good as a few words from Nanny Chang? The Emperor is always like this. We are both Empresses, but why do you trust your sister wholeheartedly but only doubt me?"
She couldn't defeat him when the queen was alive, and now that the queen is dead, she still can't defeat him.
"At least Queen Lu wouldn't be as vicious as you."
