Chapter 232 Confession Bureau
Ying Zheng laughed at himself and said, "Does the Queen Mother really regard me as your own son?"
Zhao Yuanxi's heart seemed to be torn apart. Reason told him not to trust the person in front of him, but his heart seemed to have a secret expectation.
Maybe I can trust him for once. He is not a heartless person. They have been getting along well these days, haven't they?
Zhao Yuanxi had asked herself the same question thousands of times, and she already had the answer.
"What about you? Do you really regard me as your mother?" Zhao Yuanxi asked back.
She also wanted to know the answer to this question. Ying Zheng obviously did not completely believe in herself. He, like herself, only believed in himself.
In this way, they are indeed the same. Ying Zheng is cold on the outside but cold on the inside. He doesn't care about anything except this world, while Zhao Yuanxi has millions of people in her heart. She loves this world, but she can abandon them and leave at any time.
Ying Zheng was stunned for a moment, then lowered his eyes and said, "Since the day I brought the Queen Mother back to Xianyang, you have been my mother."
"No, Zheng'er is avoiding my question. I'm asking you whether you regard me as your mother." Zhao Yuanxi raised her eyes and looked at him, just like Ying Zheng looked at her just now.
"The Queen Mother hasn't told me your answer yet!" Ying Zheng curled his fingers slightly, and his breathing became disordered.
He is uneasy.
Zhao Yuanxi looked him straight in the eye, taking in everything he did, and gave a positive answer, "You are my child, always have been, and always will be."
"Then why don't you want to tell me the reason for your coma?"
"Is this important to you?"
"Important. Everything about the Queen Mother is important."
Zhao Yuanxi suddenly laughed, "But if I say I have reasons I can't tell you, will you keep asking?"
Ying Zheng closed his eyes and said, "Okay, I won't ask. But can the Queen Mother promise me that this won't happen again?"
This is really not guaranteed!
Zhao Yuanxi grumbled in her heart, how could she know why the system suddenly gave her an upgrade without giving her any time to prepare.
"I'll try my best!" She said this a little weakly.
Ying Zheng's eyelids twitched when he heard this. The Queen Mother looked so unconfident, she probably couldn't control this matter.
He frowned slightly and said in a deep voice, "If you don't wake up next time, I will have all the doctors in the Imperial Hospital buried with you."
Where did she learn this bad habit of always asking people to be buried alive with her? She remembered that the Qin State had abolished the practice of burying people alive with their dead, and the First Emperor had never issued an edict to have people buried alive with him! Could it be that the Ying Zheng in her world was a fake?
"Why involve others?"
Seeing Ying Zheng's gloomy eyes, Zhao Yuanxi knew he was not joking. He sighed and explained, "I just fell asleep, not really dead. I know this made you worried, and I apologize, but this has nothing to do with others."
"Your Majesty, you explained it this way to them. Ultimately, it's just that in your eyes, I am no match for them. Perhaps anyone is more important than me in your heart."
That's out of the question! Zhao Yuanxi felt that Ying Zheng was being unreasonable.
But his words were so pitiful that Zhao Yuanxi couldn't help but soften his heart. "That's not true! Of course you are the most important!"
"really?"
"Of course!" Zhao Yuanxi almost raised her finger to swear, but seeing Ying Zheng still had a sour face, she seemed to react and said helplessly, "Okay, after all, you still want to know the truth! I'll tell you!"
Zhao Yuanxi gritted his teeth. It was just a matter of death in the end, sooner or later.
"Have you realized that I am not your mother?"
"Um."
Zhao Yuanxi sighed and asked, "When did you find out?"
“At first sight.”
???
"Is my acting so bad?" Zhao Yuanxi felt his eyes go dark.
"The Queen Mother can't cook."
Zhao Yuanxi didn't expect that he would fail here. He argued, "Then can't I learn it later?"
"My queen mother doesn't know how to farm either." Ying Zheng said slowly.
I think she can be blamed for being too hardworking!
Zhao Yuanxi didn't want to ask any more questions. If he continued asking, he would be giving away his life and just waiting for the opponent's next big move to come down.
She reluctantly admitted, "I am indeed not your queen mother. Your queen mother died on the day of the mutiny at the Prayer Hall. I am from another world."
Ying Zheng's pupils shrank, and his whole body froze in place for an instant, his breathing becoming irregular. Even though he had guessed the answer in his mind, he had never expected it to be this.
He opened his mouth, turned his head away, took a deep breath, and calmed down. "Then how did you get here?"
Zhao Yuanxi shrugged. "I was working all night on a lab report when I suddenly died. Then a force brought me here, and I found myself here the moment I opened my eyes."
She spoke calmly but unsettlingly.
"Don't you want to ask about your mother?" Zhao Yuanxi tilted his head and looked at him curiously.
Normally, he shouldn't be holding his own neck, shouting with bloodshot eyes, "Give my mother back!"
It's really hard to get used to seeing him so calm.
"How did my mother die?"
Zhao Yuanxi lowered his eyes, thinking about how to tell the fact tactfully.
She struggled to organize her words, "Your mother was so shocked at the time that she didn't recover in a short time and passed away."
This condition is medically known as "broken heart syndrome" or "stress cardiomyopathy". When the human body is under extreme emotions, it releases a large amount of stress hormones, causing temporary enlargement of the left ventricle, decreased heart pumping function, and ultimately death.
On the day of the mutiny, the two children died in front of Zhao Ji. Not long after, she heard the news that Lao Ai had been dismembered. She couldn't bear the blow and fainted. She was not discovered in time and died.
"Don't cry!" Zhao Yuanxi was very flustered.
Ying Zheng looked at the dampness on his palm, was stunned for a moment, covered his eyes with one hand, and silently wiped away the tears.
His body trembled slightly. After an unknown amount of time, he spoke in a hoarse voice, "Thank you for telling me the truth."
"Do you believe me?" Zhao Yuanxi widened his eyes.
"Did you lie to me then?"
Zhao Yuanxi shook his head. This really doesn’t exist!
"You said you were from another world, you're not a monster?"
"I'm a human being, a normal person, just like you. In that world, I'm a professor of agriculture! You know what a professor is, right? To put it in your terms, it's a teacher in the classroom, except that I specialize in teaching people how to farm."
"I see."
The Queen Mother is indeed good at farming, so it is not surprising that she is regarded as a teacher.
Ying Zheng asked again: "What is that power you are talking about?"
"I don't know. In fact, I fell into a coma this time because something went wrong with that power."
She still doesn't know what's going on with the system!
