Chapter 379: Mentality Collapse
Xiao Yin stood up, walked to the side of baby Ruoxi, bent down, picked up the little girl, turned around and left the hall.
The Queen Mother stretched out her hand, Xiao Yue hurried forward to support her, and they left together.
At the scene, all the ministers and their families stood up.
"It's getting late, we have to go home too, there are things at home!"
"Yes, we still have old people to serve at home, hurry back."
They seemed to be fleeing in panic. The emperor and the Queen Mother had left, and only the Imperial Master and the Imperial Tutor were left to deal with the scene. They greeted the Imperial Tutor and the Imperial Master one by one, and walked away with their necks shrunk.
They even quietly took the gifts they brought and left.
The scene was cold.
Master Ci Xin and Master Jing En sat on one side, while Hei Yan led a group of soldiers from the Yu Lin Army to surround the entire hall.
They could not keep the news secret that the prince had committed treason and assassinated the emperor on the spot.
The emperor had not issued any order not to let anyone spread the news.
However, this matter was only discussed quietly in the streets and alleys, and no one dared to talk about it casually.
Baby Ruoxi returned to Fushou Palace. The empress dowager was still sad in her heart. When she returned to the palace, she covered her chest, gasped, and could not even stand steadily.
"Grandma!" Baby Ruoxi shouted, and she struggled to throw herself to the side of the empress dowager.
The Queen Mother quickly hugged the little girl in her arms and patted her, saying, "Is Xiao Xi'er scared? Grandmother, hug her. We are not afraid, not afraid!"
No matter how powerful this baby is, in the eyes of the Queen Mother, she is just a child, a child who needs comfort and protection.
Mo Jingyu came up and brought the bottle of milk to the little guy. Xiao
Ruilin also came over. He looked at his sister's appearance, sighed, and said, "Grandmother, you have to be careful. You don't look good."
"Lin'er is so good. Grandmother is fine. I'm fine!" The Queen Mother quickly sat down and hugged Xiao Ruilin in her arms. She looked at Mo Jingyu and said, "Jingyu, don't become that kind of child in the future!"
"I won't!" Mo Jingyu shook his head.
"Well, you are all good children, all very good children, the Empress Dowager is relieved!" The Queen Mother nodded, and she approved of the children very much.
Xiao Yuheng was also dragged back to the palace by his mother. Concubine Xian didn't want him to be too involved in the things on the scene.
"Father doesn't want me anymore? Father won't forgive me?" Xiao Yuting turned his head to look outside, and after a long while, he murmured.
"Put them in jail first and wait for processing!" Ci Xin turned around and said to Hei Yan.
"Amitābha!" Jing'en looked at the queen. After a while, he walked over, bent down, handed over a bottle, and said, "This is what the queen asked me for in the past. It has finally been refined!" "
No, I don't want it. I don't want it now!" Lin Rou looked at the bottle and remembered that she had asked Jing'en for it before. She went to Ganye Temple to burn incense and said that she had a headache and could use cinnabar to treat it, so she asked Jing'en for a lot of cinnabar.
Jing'en gave some at first, enough to cure the disease.
However, the queen asked him for more, enough to kill people, and he didn't give it.
Now, the amount of this pill can directly cause death.
"Then I'll give it to you. If you can't stand it, just eat it. It can be regarded as an acquaintance between me and you. You donated so many incense sticks to Ganye Temple!" Master Jing'en said.
After saying that, he stepped back a few steps and stood beside Ci Xin.
Hei Yan glanced at Master Jing En, and he turned around and walked to stand beside Ci Xin.
"Mother, I was wrong, I don't want it anymore, I don't want this, I'll go tell my father, I don't want it!" Xiao Yuting suddenly stood up and was about to run outside.
Hei Yan took a deep breath, raised his hand and grabbed Xiao Yuting.
"Your Highness, you should wake up!" Hei Yan said.
Xiao Yuting turned his head, his eyes red: "It's not me, it's not, it's them, it's her, my mother, and that Huang Lide..."
"Ting'er!" Following a roar, the next moment, the queen suddenly rushed over, and she stuffed the pill in her hand directly into Xiao Yuting's mouth.
"Queen!" When Hei Yan saw this scene, he exclaimed and immediately stepped forward.
However, the queen held Xiao Yuting's head tightly.
"Eat, eat, eat and everything will be over!" the queen cried.
"Mother, mother!" Xiao Yuting grabbed his mother's sleeve and kept pulling. His face turned red, blood flowed from the corners of his mouth, and his eyes were bloodshot.
However, Lin Rou did not let go. She just shed tears and kept shouting: "You will be fine after you eat it, you will be fine!"
Hei Yan moved, but was still held down by Ci Xin.
"Amitabha!" Master Jing En stepped forward and performed a Buddhist salute. After that, he said: "One thought of Buddha, one thought of devil, Queen, why bother holding on!"
Lin Rou slowly let go of her hand. She did not look at her son who fell to the ground. She got up and slowly walked outside.
"One thought is Buddha, the other is devil? What did I do wrong? My family dislikes me, I am scolded all day long. For the benefit of my family, I want to marry into the royal family. Is life in the royal family so easy? Intrigues and deceptions!" Lin Rou walked slowly and said.
"Empress, you really don't know what's good for you!" On the side, Nanny Qin said coldly: "His Majesty is the most handsome man in our Wei Dynasty, and his talent is also first-class. Such a man can't be found even with a lantern. What's more, His Majesty also favors you and makes you the queen. What are you dissatisfied with? Why do you have to be so competitive!"
"Favor? He has always only favored his sister and been filial to his mother. He has given a lot of his love to them, but what about me? I'm just one of the concubines in his harem. His love has to be shared with those concubines. I can only get a little bit!" Lin Rou turned to look at Nanny Qin and sneered, "Ask the Queen Mother, am I as important as you in her eyes?"
Nanny Qin shook her head, "You have had problems with your mentality since you were a child. Your Majesty, the Queen Mother has always been fair and just. She is also a person who has suffered. So, in all these years you have been in the harem, the Queen Mother has never blamed you harshly, and you don't seem to have done anything to assist His Majesty!"
"I..." Lin Rou wanted to refute, but after thinking about it carefully, she found that she seemed to have no evidence at all.
"In the past few years, whether you were in the palace or became the queen, you didn't handle the affairs of the harem well. The Queen Mother never let us say anything and helped you handle it silently. But, what did you do? Don't you know it?" Nanny Qin continued coldly.
