What Yan Cheng and even the ministers in the court already knew, Emperor Jingxi would naturally know as well, and it is very likely that he knew it even earlier.
Just as Emperor Jingxi was about to go to the Palace of Heavenly Purity, he heard the shocking news that the fifth prince had lost his fertility.
In an instant, his face became as gloomy as the sky before a rainstorm, and his originally calm eyes were instantly filled with raging anger.
In a rage, he decisively changed his itinerary, turned a corner, and headed towards the Xian'ya Palace in his court robes in a menacing manner.
"Yun Qiang!"
As he stepped into the main hall of Xian'ya Palace, Emperor Jingxi immediately saw Concubine Yun Shu lying there leisurely and contentedly.
At this moment, his anger had completely taken over his mind, and he called out the name without mercy.
Concubine Yun Shu, who was enjoying the attentive service of her maid, was bewildered by the sudden roar: "???"
Concubine Yun Shu quickly waved away the maid, stood up, and walked forward a few steps. She saluted Emperor Jingxi absentmindedly and perfunctorily: "Your Majesty..."
Before she could finish her words, Emperor Jingxi's broad palm suddenly attacked with a fierce gust of wind.
Concubine Yun Shu's pupils suddenly shrank, and she instantly raised her hand to tightly grasp the man's wrist, twisting it hard.
As the daughter of the Marquis of Zhenbei, she has been practicing martial arts since childhood just like her brothers.
Although women are naturally less powerful than men, she was able to skillfully use her strength to subdue a middle-aged man who lacked exercise.
Concubine Yun Shu was as cold as ice at this moment. She tightly grasped the wrist with her right hand, her eyes filled with coldness. "What does your Majesty mean by this?"
"Yun Qiang! Let go!"
Emperor Jingxi's face, which was already flushed with anger, became even redder at this moment. He opened his eyes wide with an expression of disbelief.
He never expected that he couldn't even beat a woman who had given birth to two children for him.
Is he really that weak?
Concubine Yun Shu glanced at his frustrated and helpless look, her eyes full of mockery. She snorted coldly and ruthlessly shook off the dirty hand that disgusted her.
Emperor Jingxi stumbled backwards, and after finally stabilizing himself, his eyes widened as he roared angrily, "Yun Qiang! How dare you commit treason! Are you planning a rebellion?"
"I dare not."
Concubine Yun Shu still had that perfunctory attitude, and there was no trace of reverence in her voice.
If she didn't want to change the country with a legitimate reason, how could she tolerate this stupid man to be alive and well until now?
"You don't dare? I think you dare very much. Xiaoliu, Xiaoshi, and now Xiaowu, how far will you go before you are satisfied? Do you want my offspring to die?"
Hearing what Emperor Jingxi said, Concubine Yun Shu was confused at first, but after she reacted, she couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"You think I did all this?"
Humph, so this extremely stupid man put all the previous messy accounts on her head?
His sons were either dead, sick, or disabled. What did it have to do with her, Yun Qiang?
If Yun Qiang really wanted to take someone's life, why would she go to so much trouble?
It's a joke!
Concubine Yun Shu had completely lost interest in talking to this fool at this moment, and rolled her eyes fiercely.
He flicked his sleeves and sat back down where he had been just now, unwilling to even maintain that perfunctory attitude any longer.
"I advise you to find out more before you come and talk to me."
She looked impatient and waved her hands casually.
"You should be well aware of how powerful my father's personal guards are. If I really wanted to take action against someone, their death would be complete and their body would be mutilated, with no evidence left at all."
"You really didn't do it?"
Concubine Yun Shu's words seemed to make some sense, and Emperor Jingxi was confused for a long time.
If it wasn't Concubine Yun Shu who killed his son, then who could it be?
He had always thought that the so-called "accidents" before were all the work of Concubine Yun Shufei.
But every time he wanted to punish Concubine Yun Shu, the ferocious appearance of Marquis Zhenbei would involuntarily appear in his mind.
Then, the burning anger will disappear without a trace in an instant like a deflated balloon.
This time, he really couldn't bear it anymore, so he came to confront Concubine Yun Shu in a rage.
However, he never expected that Concubine Yun Shu would flatly deny it and claim that it was not her who did it.
"Are you kidding me?"
He looked up and down with suspicion at the woman in palace dress in front of him, who was still beautiful even with her age, and thought to himself.
This kind of cruel thing seems like something she could do.
idiot!
Concubine Yun Shu cursed again in her heart.
On the surface, he rolled his eyes without disguising himself: "No!"
"If it wasn't you, then who did it?"
"How should I know!"
idiot!
If you really want to know the answer, just look it up yourself! What good will asking her here lead to?
After coming out of Xian'ya Palace, Emperor Jingxi felt increasingly heavy-hearted, as if a huge rock was pressing on his heart, making it hard for him to breathe.
Yun Qiang didn't seem to be lying. If those things were not done by her, then who was the mastermind behind it?
His sons met with misfortune one after another, and the one who benefited from it must be among the remaining sons.
Since entering the palace, Lu Zhaoyuan has always been a non-confrontational person, devoted to worshipping Buddha, never formed cliques, and never interfered in the management of the harem.
