Chapter 195 The Murderer
After hearing this, Xuanyuan Su calmed down and remembered the song he heard on the street yesterday.
"Yesterday, after dining with my mother, I left the palace. Unexpectedly, I heard children singing a ballad on the long street. The ballad was about how people are born evil, wanting to take things, wanting power, abandoning their biological mothers, acknowledging their noble mothers, having backers, wanting to seize power, wanting a good reputation, and finally their biological mothers' death. This was too suggestive, and I sensed something was amiss, so I returned to the palace."
The queen murmured upon hearing this.
"Your mother is your own, your biological mother is dead, and today your mother's palace caught fire again..."
A face full of anger.
"The person behind this has such a vicious mind."
"If you hadn't reacted in time, your mother would have been..."
"Even we, mother and son, may become enemies."
Xuanyuan Su looked at the queen.
"Mother, someone wants to stop me from being your son."
The queen was so angry that her nails dug into her palms.
"I will definitely get to the bottom of this matter. Let's see who dares to stop me."
Then he looked at Xuanyuan Su.
"Su'er, this fire must have frightened you. You should rest well first. Don't worry, the Queen Mother will not let anyone who hurts you go. The Queen Mother will have people investigate those who hurt you, and the Fire Queen Mother of Jingsi Palace will also investigate."
I have someone to protect me now, I won’t be alone anymore, Xuanyuan Su looked at the queen.
"Mother, I'm afraid the ballad will cause you a lot of trouble, but the fire in Jingsi Palace is not difficult to investigate!"
After hearing this, the queen hurriedly looked at Xuanyuan Su.
"Does Su'er have any clues?"
Xuanyuan Su looked at the queen cautiously again.
"Your son says, mother, please don't be angry."
The queen spoke with some doubt after hearing this.
"If you have any clues, how could the Queen Mother be angry with you when she's so happy?"
Xuanyuan Su looked at the Queen's expression and spoke cautiously.
"There are two young eunuchs who were knocked unconscious in the cold palace. Queen Mother can go get them and then say they were found near Jingsi Palace."
The queen was stunned at first when she heard this, and then looked at Xuanyuan Su with a hint of shock.
"Is it the arsonist?"
Xuanyuan Su looked at the queen's shocked eyes and lowered his head again.
"I'm sorry, mother."
Then he looked up again and looked at the queen with a pleading look.
"Mother, please don't be angry."
The queen stood up suddenly.
"Su'er, tell the truth to your mother. When you knocked out those two eunuchs, wasn't Jingsi Palace on fire yet?"
Xuanyuan Su lowered his head and dared not speak after hearing this.
It was easy to see how much the queen had experienced in the palace.
"So you were the one who set the fire in Jingsi Palace!"
"Xuanyuan Su, do you know what you are doing?"
Xuanyuan Su hurriedly stood up and struggled to kneel in front of the queen.
"Mother, I'm sorry. It's my fault. I made you worry. Mother, I'm willing to take any beatings or scoldings you want. I only ask you, mother, don't abandon me. I finally have a mother..."
As he spoke, tears rolled down his eyes. He reached out and grabbed the queen's skirt, his eyes full of pleading and fear.
"I just... just... Mother, when I rushed to Jingsi Palace, two eunuchs were pouring wine on the palace, so I knocked them unconscious and threw them into the cold palace. The rumors on the street clearly indicate that someone is trying to stop our mother-son relationship. If we take this matter lightly, there will definitely be more calculations later, so my son..."
"I don't regret it. I just feel sorry for my mother and for causing her worry."
The Queen looked down at Xuanyuan Su, feeling a mixture of emotions for a moment. If the Crown Prince had Su'er's ruthlessness, he wouldn't be so...
Xuanyuan Su looked at the queen who remained silent, his heart was in a panic and his face was even more panicked.
"Mother, I'm sorry. Please don't be angry with your son. I will discuss this with you first."
