Chapter 376 What do you want to ask?
"Then let's go together. After we take back Pingyang, we will go to Tianqi." Zhan Beiyuan said. Her intuition has always been accurate. Maybe there really is a piece of broken body in Tianqi.
"Yeah." Jiang Yunxi also thought so. She was very unhappy with Tianqi's behavior. He actually started a war before New Year's Eve.
They took Pingyang easily, and the people should not have suffered much. It is best that Tianqi did not abuse the people, otherwise she would not be lenient.
"By the way, Concubine Li pleaded guilty and admitted that she was the one who harmed Zhan Yanzhi and that she was the one who used the puppet technique." Zhan Beiyuan said to Jiang Yunxi.
Jiang Yunxi thought for a moment and said, "I want to go meet her."
Zhan Beiyuan: "I'll take you there."
…
Changle Palace.
"Mother, how could this happen? Wasn't it the skeleton that possessed you? I will go and ask the emperor for mercy. He will surely show mercy."
Zhan Yuyang was summoned to the palace early in the morning. After learning that his mother had pleaded guilty, he felt like the sky had fallen because he had completely lost the qualifications to compete for the throne.
"Yuyang, give up." Concubine Li had long lost her previous fighting spirit. She was full of confidence, but when she met that man, she no longer dared to fight.
"Mother..." Zhan Yuyang widened his eyes. He didn't expect that it was her who persuaded him to give up.
Concubine Li looked at him. He was her only child in this life, and she fought for him with all her heart.
But after last night, she was completely defeated.
"Yuyang, stop fighting for the crown prince position and be a leisurely prince in the future." Concubine Li said solemnly. If he went to fight with Jiang Yunxi, the only end he would have was death.
"Didn't you tell me not to give up?" Zhan Yuyang looked puzzled. Why did his mother change her mind after just one night?
"Mother has been defeated. You have lost the qualification to compete for the crown prince. Fighting again will be a dead end. Listen to mother and give up. Only by giving up can you ensure a life of wealth and glory." Concubine Li said earnestly.
She knew she would die, but she hoped that her bloodline in this life would remain in the world.
"Mother..." Zhan Yuyang seemed to have lost all his strength in an instant.
Concubine Li thought of something and pulled his hand hard, "Kick Jiang Chenyu out of Prince Yi's Mansion. She is a disaster. You must never be with her again."
"How could she be a disaster?" Zhan Yuyang didn't dislike Jiang Chenyu. Instead, he thought she was well-educated, polite and considerate.
"We want to use her to target Jiang Yunxi, but she also wants to use us to deal with Jiang Yunxi. Listen to your mother and don't go against Jiang Yunxi in the future." Concubine Li warned in an extremely serious tone.
"Is she... is she that powerful?" Zhan Yuyang was still not convinced.
“She’s amazing.”
"Even the Lu family's ancestor couldn't deal with her?"
Concubine Li sneered, "He is nothing in front of Jiang Yunxi. Even if Mother can control skeletons, she is no match for him. Do you understand how strong she is now?"
Zhan Yuyang widened his eyes. The skeleton was controlled by his mother, and she was no match for Jiang Yunxi. Suddenly, he broke out in a cold sweat and his face turned pale.
"Mother is saying all this for your own good. Being a leisurely prince is your best choice." Concubine Li patted his hands. She was afraid that few people in the world could be Jiang Yunxi's match.
Although Zhan Yuyang was unwilling in his heart, but thinking of Jiang Yunxi's strength, he said, "I will listen to my mother."
When Concubine Li heard him say this, a gentle smile appeared on her face, and then she took the dagger and stabbed it into the chest decisively.
"Mother, why are you doing this? I will beg father to spare your life." Zhan Yuyang's eyes were red and his face was full of surprise.
He never expected that his mother would commit suicide.
"I'm used to living a life of luxury, and am used to being praised by others. If I go to the cold palace, I'd rather die than live. Yuyang, you must remember what mother said."
"You must promise your mother now that you will be a leisurely prince and do no evil, and drive Jiang Chenyu away." Concubine Li held his hand tightly. He was the only person she was worried about.
Zhan Yuyang nodded with tears in his eyes, sadness filling his entire chest. A few days ago, he was still full of confidence, thinking that he and his mother could win.
I didn't expect that after New Year's Eve, they and their son would become like this.
"I want you to agree in person."
"I promised my mother that I would be a leisurely prince and do no evil, and drive Jiang Chenyu away." Zhan Yuyang promised in a choked voice.
"Okay, okay, this way I can die without regrets..." Concubine Li laughed as she spoke, then looked towards the palace entrance. She knew Jiang Yunxi was there.
She asked her son to make a promise, and she also said it to Jiang Yunxi, hoping that she would not touch her son.
Fortunately, over the years, she was the one who fought openly and secretly for everything, and Yuyang had no evil hands.
Suddenly, she spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Mother, mother, don't scare me..." Zhan Yuyang held her in his arms, and when he heard footsteps, he turned around quickly.
Seeing that it was Jiang Yunxi, he lowered his posture and said, "Miss Jiang, as long as you save my mother, I will do whatever you ask me to do in the future."
He just wanted his mother to survive.
"There's no hope. This is her fate." Jiang Yunxi said indifferently. If Concubine Li had been a concubine from the beginning without any evil intentions, she would have died of old age.
The current result is her own fault.
"No, you are so powerful, there must be a way, please..." Zhan Yuyang said with tears streaming down his face. At this moment, his hands were covered with his mother's blood.
In his memory, his mother had always been glamorous and beautiful. He had never imagined that one day she would be lying in his arms covered in blood and dying.
Concubine Li held his hand and said calmly, "Life and death are determined by fate. As long as you do what you promised me, I will have no regrets."
She enjoyed her life, even though she didn't make it to the end. Would things have been different if she hadn't been so ambitious from the beginning?
She is the legitimate daughter of the Marquis Wenxin Mansion. Although she is the legitimate daughter of the Marquis Wenxin Mansion, the Marquis Wenxin Mansion has no status in the capital, and every time she goes out, she has to flatter other noble ladies.
At that time, she swore in her heart that she would climb up.
Later, she had the opportunity to enter the palace, but as a daughter of a small marquisate, how could she win favor? She was unwilling to accept this, and some secret techniques appeared in her mind at some point.
She had a beautiful face that no one else had, and a flexible figure. She used some tricks to get Emperor Su Ming's attention.
From then on, she became a favorite concubine.
Later, after giving birth to Zhan Yuyang, she saw more and more princes in the palace, and she wanted more and more.
Once human desires are aroused, they cannot be retracted.
From then on, she embarked on a path of no return.
"I promise mother that I won't fight anymore..." Zhan Yuyang cried in pain. At this moment, he seemed to have lost all his strength and really didn't want to fight anymore.
Concubine Li looked at Jiang Yunxi and said, "I have suffered the consequences of my own actions. I hope you will not harm my son."
"If he doesn't do evil, I won't do anything." Jiang Yunxi said coldly.
"What do you want to ask?" Concubine Li knew that she didn't come here on purpose to see her suffer. They didn't have any deep hatred, and she was not the kind of person who would gloat over other people's misfortunes.
