Chapter 22: Queen Mother and Emperor Luo quarrel

"etc."

The Queen Mother shouted at Emperor Luo. She no longer cared about being angry. After all, she knew her eldest son's temper.

In the past, the emperor might have had some respect for her, but now, the relationship between mother and son has become cold as ice, even more distant and indifferent than that of ordinary people.

She knew very well that she was the cause of all this.

But she also feels wronged!

Which mother in the world is not partial?

Why can't the emperor be more understanding towards her?

Thinking of this, the Queen Mother's tone was inevitably mixed with a bit of anger, "Your Majesty, I heard that your sister called the Imperial Doctor Huang to the mansion to diagnose her pulse. Is there something wrong with her body?"

"Humph, I've said it before, how can the doctors outside be as skilled as the imperial doctors in the palace?"

"But your sister is angry with me. Not only does she not want to enter the palace, but she also refuses to invite the imperial physician to diagnose her pulse. What is she up to?"

"Mother, please be careful with your words!"

Emperor Luo's expression suddenly darkened, his eyes filled with anger and resentment, which made the Queen Mother's eyelids twitch and her heart panic.

"You, Your Majesty, what's that expression on your face? Are you still blaming me for not letting your sister marry An Dongzhang?"

"Yes, I am blaming you." Emperor Luo's eyes were red, and he growled, "If I could go back in time, I would never let that bastard An Dongzhang marry my sister, and I would never be suppressed by filial piety."

"you……"

The Queen Mother was extremely sad, and her eyes could not stop reddening. "Your Majesty, no matter what, I am still your mother! Why can't you learn to be as obedient and sensible as Jin'er? Why can't you learn to be as considerate as him?"

"Jin'er, Jin'er, it's Jin'er again!"

At this moment, Emperor Luo was completely unable to suppress his inner anger. He immediately swung his sleeves and looked at the Queen Mother with burning eyes.

"Mother, besides your Jin'er, do you still have us two siblings in your heart and eyes?"

"You may not know it yet! It is because of your Jin'er that my sister is so disheartened that her life hangs by a thread. If it were ten days or half a month later, she would have died. By then, you will be satisfied, right?"

Nanny Hua, who was standing next to the Queen Mother, was horrified.

The Emperor doesn't even want to use honorifics now, which shows that he is really angry with the Empress Dowager.

Alas, the Queen Mother is the same. The Emperor and Princess Qingyang have such a good child, why doesn’t she like them?

Sometimes, even she, a servant, could not understand the Queen Mother. Whenever it came to matters concerning the Third Prince, the Queen Mother became unreasonable and lost her mind.

I always feel like she's been possessed by a ghost.

It is clear that before the Third Prince was born, the Queen Mother was gentle and virtuous, and was the mother of the country. She was not someone who could not distinguish right from wrong.

The Third Prince had sinister eyes, was ambitious, and bloodthirsty. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that he was not a good person, but the Queen Mother loved him to the core.

Alas, a loving mother often spoils her son. As a servant, she dared not say much.

The Queen Mother's eyes widened suddenly, with a look of disbelief on her face, "Your Majesty, what do you mean by life hanging by a thread, one corpse and two lives? You are talking about your sister, right?"

"Who else could it be other than my royal sister?" Emperor Luo asked with a sarcastic look in his eyes.

After getting the confirmation, the Queen Mother's breathing stagnated, her face turned pale instantly, and her lips trembled uncontrollably.

"Your Majesty, please tell me what is going on. Why is Shihan's life hanging by a thread? How did the Prince Consort take care of her?"

"Oh, Prince Consort!"

Emperor Luo sneered and said sarcastically, "Mother, I have to say that you have a good eye. Your Highness is bold and careful, reliable, courageous and resourceful."

"Not only did he keep a mistress outside, he also had an illegitimate child."

"Oh, by the way, not only did he give birth to an illegitimate child, he also spent a large sum of money to buy the poison from the country of Tianzhu - the Seven-Star Begonia, just to nourish the body of the imperial sister."

"Under his careful care, the imperial sister was almost saved. He has made an invaluable contribution and deserves praise."

"Mother, you must reward the Prince Consort and the Third Imperial Brother. If it weren't for him, my sister wouldn't have such a wise and powerful Prince Consort. Mother, don't you agree?"

Aunt Hua opened her mouth in horror.

Oh my God, the prince consort is such a person, no wonder the emperor is so angry. I wonder what the empress dowager thinks after hearing about this?

Oh no!

The Queen Mother was so angry that she almost choked.

Aunt Hua quickly suppressed the shock in her eyes and patted the empress dowager on the back to calm her down.

Oh, I wonder if the Empress Dowager is angry with the Prince Consort? Or is it the irony of the angry emperor?

But what is certain is that the Queen Mother would never make the Third Prince angry.

She would only make excuses for the Third Prince, saying that he was not good at judging people, which led to him being deceived by the Prince Consort, and that was why she was persuaded to agree to let An Dongzhang become the Prince Consort... and so on.

In short, everything was the Prince Consort's fault, and her Jin'er could not be wrong.

As expected.

The person who knows the Empress Dowager best is Nanny Hua!

After the Queen Mother recovered, the first thing she did was not to worry about Princess Qingyang's health, but to excuse Luo Fangjin.

"Your Majesty, what are you talking about?"

"Your third brother wanted to match your sister with the prince consort for her own good, but the prince consort is not a good person. Can you blame your third brother for this?"

"Needless to say, An Dongzhang must be good at disguising himself and doing superficial work, so he deceived your third brother. He didn't do it on purpose. You must not misunderstand your third brother."

"Mother!" Emperor Luo gritted his teeth and roared, "Until now, you are still protecting your Jin'er. I know exactly what kind of person he is."

Emperor Luo's eyes turned red. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and the more aggrieved he felt.

"Mother, you don't care about the safety of my little sister at all. I really want to ask you, are my little sister and I your children?"

"presumptuous!"

The Queen Mother was so angry that her face turned blue, and she looked at her eldest son with disappointment and pain.

"Your Majesty, you... you are an emperor, but you actually said such a ridiculous thing. Don't you know that the heirs of the royal family will never allow anyone to mess around?"

Emperor Luo smiled bitterly with tears in his eyes.

"Mother, you don't need to be angry. Over the years, my sister and I have enjoyed very little maternal love. Therefore, I have to doubt whether we are your biological children. Please forgive me for my outspokenness."

Ahhhhh, I'm so pissed off.

The Queen Mother was so angry that her body was shaking, and she immediately pointed at Emperor Luo angrily.

"Your Majesty, I am your mother. I carried you for ten months before giving birth to you. You have my blood in you. This is an unchangeable fact. How dare you question me..."

"Empress Dowager, please calm down." Aunt Hua's heart skipped a beat and she quickly stopped the Empress Dowager from speaking any further.

"Queen Mother, the Emperor said these words impulsively because he was worried about Her Royal Highness the Princess. The most urgent thing now is not to argue about this issue, but to care about Her Royal Highness the Princess's safety!"

The Queen Mother stiffened and reached out to pat Aunt Hua's hand, "Yes, Hua'er, you are right."

Aunt Hua let out a long sigh of relief and quietly wiped the cold sweat from her forehead.

Fortunately, she stopped it in time, otherwise she was afraid that the empress dowager would get angry and say some hurtful words, and her relationship with the emperor would only get worse.

Why bother?
