Chapter 211: Substitute Gu, Queen
"Your Majesty, it's great that you woke up." Defei held the hand of Emperor Beirong on A Lingzhu's abdomen and placed his hand on her heart.
A Lingzhu looked at her sarcastically and did not argue with Concubine De. Instead, she stood up and walked aside, watching quietly.
Emperor Beirong glanced at him, raised his other hand and patted Concubine De's hand.
He looked into the hall again and saw that the King of the Southern Court was also there, which made him feel confused.
"Why did Suhe come into the palace? You are not in good health and it is winter, you should go out less." After just a short while, the breathing of Emperor Beirong became more and more stable.
He doesn't look like a seriously ill patient who just woke up.
The King of the Southern Courtyard bowed quickly and said, "It is a great event for the Northern Rong that my father has woken up. My child is doing well these days, so my father does not need to worry."
"That's good. Where did you take him? If Walida is also in Kyoto, then we can be a family reunion."
"Why don't I see Princess Beiyuan and little Tari? Where's Ayali?"
Alingzhu was very angry when she saw that he had just woken up and started muttering about Adoni and her two bastards.
De Fei looked at A Ling Zhu, and seeing her expression change, she said directly: "The Princess of the Northern Courtyard was executed by the Grand Concubine, and the young prince was executed by the Grand Concubine. Princess A Yali escaped from Kyoto. If nothing unexpected happens, she should go to the northern border to find the King of the Northern Courtyard."
"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother has acted too extreme. When the King of the Northern Court returns, I'm afraid there will be bloodshed."
"You!" A Lingzhu was furious and said angrily, "Adonie did something that damaged the reputation of the royal family. I was just cleaning up the mess for the King of the North Courtyard. What did I do wrong?"
Emperor Beirong motioned to Concubine De to help him stand up. He leaned back on the soft pillow and looked at A Lingzhu: "My beloved concubine, what did Concubine De just say?"
"Your Majesty, the Princess of Beiyuan is having an affair with someone, and that young prince is not the Prince of Beiyuan's at all. The bitch and the adulterer were caught by me on the spot, and she tried to resist, so she was killed on the spot by the guards."
"As for the princess, I have no intention of doing anything to her. It was the Western Di who sent an envoy to seek a marriage with the Northern Rong."
"The only woman of marriageable age is Princess Ayali, but she escaped from Kyoto and went to find the King of the North Court."
"I was afraid that something might happen to the princess on the way, so I followed her. Now it's freezing outside, and I don't know how they are doing."
"If I really wanted to do something to the princess, why would I let her go out of the capital in such weather to chase her back?"
When Concubine De saw that Emperor Beirong's expression had eased, she quickly said, "Your Majesty, even if this is the case, Sister Dowager shouldn't be so extreme. Princess Beiyuan and the King of Beiyuan have a deep relationship."
"And only the Queen Mother saw this. In fact, no one believes that the Queen would betray the King of the North Court."
A Lingzhu wanted to speak, but Concubine De said again: "And the Grand Concubine sister went against His Majesty's wishes and asked the witch doctor to treat you again."
"She also said that she had never used witchcraft on you, but your Majesty's health was so serious before."
"As soon as the witch doctor came, you got better immediately. If you say it's not witchcraft, I don't believe it."
"Your Majesty, I am more worried about your health now."
After hearing what Concubine De said, Emperor Beirong noticed the witch doctor standing in the corner.
He frowned and looked at A Lingzhu.
A Lingzhu knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I did use witchcraft on you, but I can assure you that it will not cause any harm to your body."
"Well, A Lingzhu, you still dare to say that you didn't use witchcraft on His Majesty. Chaolu, you are so bold that you dared to conceal it for her!"
However, Defei seemed to have caught A Lingzhu's handle and immediately stood up and said angrily.
"A Lingzhu!" Emperor Beirong looked at A Lingzhu coldly.
A Lingzhu looked aggrieved, and walked forward and took off the hairpin on her head: "Your Majesty, please forgive me for my innocence."
Then, she held the Beirong Emperor's hand and slashed the hairpin hard across his palm.
Everyone was shocked, and then they saw that the palm of Emperor Beirong was intact, but A Lingzhu's palm was bleeding.
The King of the Southern Courtyard's expression changed slightly. He glanced at his mother, and an expression of "I see" flashed in his eyes.
My mother has already lost this time because of her recklessness.
"My beloved concubine!" Emperor Beirong grabbed her hand and shouted loudly.
"Imperial Physician, stop the bleeding of the Queen Mother!"
"Defei, it seems that you have misunderstood and wrongly accused the Queen Concubine!" Emperor Beirong looked at Defei with a complaining look, and Defei's eyes were full of panic and disbelief.
What a great Alingzhu! She has some great tricks.
She lost. This woman was really scheming.
In this way, His Majesty will not only not punish her for using the Gu on him, but will also favor her even more.
She miscalculated.
Chao Lu's eyes were full of surprise. He didn't expect that A Lingzhu was using a substitute Gu.
But in this way, all of His Majesty's illnesses will be transferred to her, right?
Could she sacrifice herself to this extent just to get that position?
"Your Majesty, as long as you are fine, I am willing to sacrifice my life." A Lingzhu looked at Emperor Beirong with admiration.
The Northern Rong Emperor was deeply shocked, and immediately said, "Pass the order down. The Grand Concubine is virtuous, dignified, beautiful, intelligent, courageous and resolute. She has disregarded her own safety and used her weak body to share my worries. I hereby confer the title of Grand Concubine Choros. Alingzhu will be made the Empress. The order will be announced to the whole country and the world, and all historians will know about it."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace." A Lingzhu was overwhelmed with joy and knelt down to express her gratitude.
Defei felt unwilling and was about to say something, but she saw the King of Nanyuan shaking his head slightly at her.
She could only swallow the words that were about to come to her lips and knelt down unwillingly.
"Congratulations, Queen. Congratulations, Queen."
"Stand up." A Lingzhu stood up, her eyes full of pride.
Defei stood up and looked at her. A Lingzhu raised her eyebrows slightly, but did not say anything provocative.
"Congratulations... no, congratulations to the Queen." Defei said gently, but her eyes were full of unwillingness.
Seeing this, A Lingzhu felt better: "I can be where I am today thanks to my sister De Fei who has always been there for me."
"You are too polite, sister. We are all sisters. Only when the harem is at peace can Your Majesty feel at ease." Concubine De responded to her with a fake smile.
Then she attacked Chao Lu: "Although the Queen sister ordered the witch doctor to use Gu for the sake of His Majesty, Chao Lu, you are an old man serving His Majesty."
"I asked you before whether your sister, the queen, had ever used Gu. How did you answer?"
A Lingzhu frowned slightly, and before she could say anything, Chao Lu had already knelt down.
"I know my crime." Seeing Chaolu did not defend himself, Defei glanced at A Lingzhu with a sneer.
She turned around and bowed to the Northern Rong Emperor: "Your Majesty, Chaolu is your personal steward, but he lied to me when I questioned him. How can I keep such a lowly servant by my side with peace of mind?"
"Chao Lu, is what Concubine De said serious?" Emperor Beirong looked at Chao Lu with cold eyes.
He is the emperor, and having been in a coma for so long, he naturally values his life more.
Since Chao Lu deceived Concubine De with the intention of harming him, he would naturally be suspicious.
"Your Majesty, you have wronged Chaolu." A Lingzhu still spoke.
