Chapter 489: Exposed in Public
Concubine Mi glared at her fiercely, but Yan smiled lightly, not taking it seriously at all. Concubine Mi became even more angry and raised her hand to hit her.
Yan Shi was not one to indulge her. She easily grasped her raised arm, her tone slightly cold: "Are you planning to burn your bridges after crossing the river? Your Majesty, don't forget that you are cooperating with this guilty woman. She has the contract with your handprint. I have already ordered someone to secretly send the contract out of the palace. If anything happens to this guilty woman, the contract will be made public. Do you really want to do this? Even if you don't care about yourself, don't you also care about the Crown Prince?"
With a biological mother who killed the king, it would probably not be easy for the eldest prince to sit firmly on the throne even if he is the emperor's only son.
And his life will be stained with this stain and he will never be able to wash it off.
Yan's words made everyone change color, including Concubine Mi.
Concubine Mi stared at Yan with resentment, her heart filled with hatred. Her alliance with Yan had never been secure, but she had never imagined Yan would be so brazen! She actually revealed the truth right in front of her, her parents, and the eldest prince, right here in the Palace of Heavenly Purity!
How could she put her face like that? How dare she!
The eldest prince knelt on the ground and cried bitterly. His eyes were red as he glared at Concubine Mi with resentment: "How dare you! How dare you! You killed my father! I hate you, I hate you so much!"
And he won't let the Mi family go! He won't let any of them go!
He had never hated himself as much as he did at this moment. Why hadn't he seen through her evil ambitions earlier? Why had he been so soft-hearted towards her over and over again?
If he had been more ruthless to her earlier, would things not have turned out like this?
Father, father, he won’t be harmed by her either!
In fact, he knew, everyone knew that his father did not like the Mi family who did not know how to advance or retreat, nor did he like her who did not know the rules and loved to make trouble. It was only for his sake, and he did not want to make him sad and embarrassed, so he was more tolerant and accommodating to her and the Mi family.
But what did I get in exchange for all this? I got my father's life!
It's all his fault.
The eldest prince cried more and more sadly, regretting his past actions and wishing he could take on all the responsibility for his father.
Concubine Mi was upset, extremely angry and disappointed. This was her own son, and he was not close to her at all! If such a son was not still useful, she really didn't want to even look at him again.
What's the use of someone like him?
Concubine Mi coldly withdrew her gaze and glared at her in embarrassment: "Yan, you'd better understand that we are now grasshoppers on the same vine. You, you should stop talking nonsense!"
What good would it do her to embarrass her?
Damn it, she's so cunning! She knew this bitch couldn't be trusted!
Yan Shi ignored her expression and warning. She smiled slightly and said softly, "I'm just worried that Your Majesty might forget things. So it's best to explain it clearly. If Your Majesty remembers everything, that would be even better."
“.”
Concubine Mi angrily withdrew her gaze, glanced at the eldest prince who was crying on the ground, and became even more upset. She shouted twice in a bad mood, "Get up! Get up quickly!" The eldest prince ignored her completely, not even looking at her, just lowered his head and cried, his soul lost. Concubine Mi was so angry that she almost hit him again.
Yan said calmly, "It's understandable that Your Highness may find it difficult to accept this for a while, but once he figures it out, everything will be fine. Your Highness, your mother is truly doing this for your own good! Look, now that you're the Son of Heaven, everyone in the world must listen to you. Whatever you say is what goes, how wonderful! Once you figure it out, you'll naturally be grateful to your mother!"
Concubine Mi: "Hmph!"
The eldest prince clenched his hands tightly, filled with hatred.
Yan continued, "Your Highness, please quickly summon Marquis Mingxin to the palace, and also Lord Zhao Xiang. I can't wait to settle accounts with Lord Zhao!"
She wanted to kill Zhao Xiang, to kill him with her own hands! If he hadn't interfered, she and her son wouldn't have ended up like this.
If she had to hate someone, she hated Zhao Xiang the most! Without him, none of this would have happened. This man must die.
To avoid further complications, the sooner Zhao Xiang dies, the better.
Concubine Mi also loathed Zhao Xiang and wished she could use this opportunity to kill everyone in the Duke of Liguo's mansion as well. However, she knew things had to be handled one at a time. Wouldn't it be better to trick Zhao Xiang into the palace and kill him, then find a way to pin the Emperor's death on him? Both the Duke of Liguo and his son were warriors, especially Zhou Hansheng, who was a master of martial arts. Summoning them all at once might lead to complications.
If something unexpected happens at this time, I will really regret it!
Anyway, it doesn't hurt to defeat them one by one.
It's come to this point, she can still wait.
Concubine Mi nodded and said, "Okay!"
As for Marquis Mingxin, she couldn't help but glance at Yan. She must be Yan's confidant, right? He was quite capable. The emperor had been cleaning up so many times, and she still had someone useful to keep.
This is hidden really deeply!
Aside from the complex feelings of envy and jealousy, Concubine Mi couldn't help but feel a little sour in her heart: they were both imperial concubines, but she was just a superficial concubine, with nothing but a title. How could she compare to the former Concubine Yan in any way? Not only did she plant countless thorns in the palace, she even had people outside the palace and in the court.
The eldest prince suddenly rushed out, "Someone come! Someone come quickly!"
"Oh no!"
"Shut up, my lady!"
"Catch him! Quick!"
No one expected the eldest prince to suddenly use this trick. They were all caught off guard. They were all shocked and rushed forward in panic to catch and chase him.
The eldest prince was still young after all, and among these people, the ones brought by Yan were particularly capable. With so many people rushing forward, they were all in the side hall in the east room. The side hall was quite large, and the eldest prince couldn't even run out of the side hall before he was caught by everyone.
Someone immediately covered his mouth. The eldest prince struggled desperately, "Wuwuwuwu!", but it was in vain.
"Shut up! You shut up right now!" Concubine Mi was shaking with anger. She raised her hands angrily and slapped the eldest prince twice in the face, then shouted in a deep voice, "You bastard, shut up right now!"
The eldest prince's cheeks were burning with pain and tears were streaming down his face. He looked at Concubine Mi with anger and horror, and his heart was cold.
Concubine Mi was even colder than him, gritting her teeth and saying, "How ungrateful! I did all this for you!"
