Chapter 244 The Queen Mother's Warning



The Queen Mother suppressed her grief, but burst into tears again the moment she untied her handkerchief.

On the other hand, Situ Xunxiao, who was standing by, did not love Gong Yunluo, but he had feelings for her! He could not accept her love for him for so many years, but he had to be moved.

He knew very well that he had exploited her over the years, so he always felt guilty about it. But later, because of Gong Yunluo's various actions, he tolerated her and suppressed the guilt.

This is why he did not do anything extreme at first when he saw the mess in the room. He thought that she had fainted because of this. At that time, he was just angry, but he did not lose his composure so much, nor did he want to kill anyone.

However, when he found out that Gong Yunluo had died, the repressed guilt surged into his heart. At that time, he had only one thought in his mind, which was to avenge her. When people are angry, they are most likely to lose their minds.

Situ Xunxiao stared at the broken jade bracelet on the corner of the wall, his lips tightly pursed. After scanning all the broken pieces on the ground, he already had doubts in his heart.

"How can you be so stupid, Yunluo?" The Queen Mother's grief was as if her own children had passed away. In her eyes, one could see the love she had for Gong Yunluo from the bottom of her heart. Looking at the words written in blood on the silk, although they were a little crooked, her handwriting could still be vaguely seen. "Even if you wanted to commit suicide because you suffered a great injustice, the only thing you couldn't let go of in your heart was Xunxiao."

"Xiao'er, look at you." The Queen Mother held back tears. She hadn't called Situ Xunxiao by such a loving name for several years. She became fragile because of the great sadness in her heart at this moment.

Situ Xunxiao was obviously also stunned by the Queen Mother's words. His lips moved slightly, and his cold eyes softened a little.

He took the blood-stained silk from the Queen Mother's hand, his eyes fixed. The words that suddenly appeared in front of his eyes made Situ Xunxiao's mouth curl up with a hint of sarcasm.

Yun Luo has no face to live, but she can't let go of her brother Xun Xiao. The people around him make Yun Luo uneasy. If the queen mother and the emperor see this, please let Yun Fei replace Yun Luo and fulfill his unfulfilled wish.

The remaining unfinished strokes on the silk scarf give the impression that the painting is not fully conveyed.

Situ Xunxiao clenched his hand and clenched his fist. "What does the Queen Mother mean?"

"I will not allow Yunluo's matter to end like this." The Queen Mother looked at Situ Xunxiao with a strong warning. It seemed that she would not tolerate Zongzheng Xiaoting's behavior just now.

"And then?" At this moment, Situ Xunxiao had regained his calmness and indifference, unlike the anger and irrationality he had just shown because of Yun Luo. This change made the Queen Mother feel a little uncertain.

"Xiao'er, I know that you have always been indifferent to Yunluo, but I am afraid you understand Yunluo's feelings for you better than I do. Even if there is no love, at least there is an affection between you from childhood to adulthood! What's more, this matter has nothing to do with Zongzheng Xiaoting, but just one of her friends. Are you going to give up Yunluo?" There was sadness in the Queen Mother's eyes. She looked at Situ Xunxiao with a very sad look. The original high spirits were gone at this moment.

The empress dowager at this moment seemed much older, but this appearance of her also touched Situ Xunxiao's heart.

Over the years, he had gotten used to being in opposition to her and to the gradually fading family affection. He had long forgotten the previous intimacy. But what about the queen mother? He could not be indifferent to his aunt. However, he still had a grudge in his heart, but he could not let go of the blood ties.

"Even if the Queen Mother didn't exist, I would not let Yunluo's matter go." Situ Xunxiao said coldly, "I know better than the Queen Mother who is good to me and who is sincere to me. Yunluo is the only one who has made me feel the warmth of family love over the years, even if this love has changed."

Situ Xunxiao's words stopped the Queen Mother from continuing to criticize him.

Over the years, she really did owe him too much. He was the blood of her sister, but he was gradually drifting away from her. He regarded her as his only close relative, but she really plotted and framed him for the emperor. If he hadn't still cared about family affection despite his indifference, she wouldn't have been able to hold on to his emotions over the years. It was this kind of estrangement without being heartless that made him still hold on to a glimmer of hope.

"But Queen Mother, I have my own considerations. I will not let your bad behavior go. If it goes against my will, don't blame me for not giving you face."

"Empress Dowager, my sister..." Gong Yunfei was also crying and her eyes were red and swollen from crying.

"Yunfei, if Yunluo's last wish before he left was to sacrifice your happiness, are you willing?" The Queen Mother looked at Gong Yunfei with determination in her eyes.

This handkerchief was originally designed by Gong Yunfei. She knew what was written inside! However, she did not expect that the Queen Mother really loved Gong Yunluo. Her original plan was to use the Queen Mother to tell the Emperor about this matter. Therefore, the sorrow she showed was, on the one hand, because she had to show it, and on the other hand, to make the Queen Mother understand why Gong Yunluo said this.

Only if he treated Gong Yunluo sincerely could he gain her trust. It was because of her trust that he made such an arrangement before his death. In this way, the emperor would follow the empress dowager's thinking and fulfill the last wish of his only flesh and blood sister.

Gong Yunfei was naturally very proud at this moment. She felt that everything was going smoothly. The meaning of what the Queen Mother just said was self-evident. If the Queen Mother, who was not related by blood, was like this, then there was no need to think about what the Emperor would do.

Of course, she still has to act well in this play.

Gong Yunfei raised her red, swollen, walnut-like eyes and asked in confusion, "Yunfei doesn't understand, what does the Queen Mother mean?"

"Yun Luo's final wish was that you could carry on her will. You also understand who she is most worried about and who she has been looking for." The Queen Mother spoke clearly, word by word.

"Empress Dowager! What exactly does Sister Yunluo want Yunfei to do?" Gong Yunfei frowned, expressing her ignorance and confusion vividly.

Situ Xunxiao, who was standing by, naturally understood what the Queen Mother meant to do, but he did not think of interrupting what she was about to say next.
