Chapter 100 The Desireless Emperor x The Beautiful and Frail Empress Dowager (2)



General Li died on the battlefield, and Li Wanwan died of depression due to excessive grief.

The huge general's mansion suddenly lost its leader.

As the son-in-law of the general's mansion, the original owner's father naturally took over the general's mansion.

There was no seventh day celebration after Li Wanwan was buried.

He brought his mistress back to the general's mansion in broad daylight.

A middle-aged woman who looks like a woman of worldly origin but still has charm.

The two of them were holding hands with a five-year-old boy, whose features and eyebrows were somewhat similar to the original owner.

The Phoenix man took the middle-aged woman as his second wife and hypocritically announced to the public that the little boy was their adopted son.

This kind of nonsense is good enough to fool a blind person.

A person with a discerning eye sees things clearly.

He originally wanted to shamelessly change the plaque of the general's mansion to his own surname.

He wanted to completely take over the General's Mansion.

The Li clan members disagreed.

The emperor also took into consideration General Li's life of military service and bestowed a plaque on the Li Mansion, which was hung above the gate of the general's mansion.

The Phoenix Man didn't have the courage to touch the gift from the emperor, so he had to give up.

Perhaps it was because the original owner was her own blood after all, and the original owner's father was neither good nor bad to her.

The attitude is still as lukewarm as usual.

However, the original owner had been used to it since she was a child. She no longer had any expectations of her father, so naturally she would not be disappointed.

The original owner had been brought up in seclusion since childhood, she was frail, naive, and ignorant of the ways of the world.

For her, after losing the protection of her mother and grandfather, it was a blessing to be able to live in a corner of the general's mansion.

But the good times didn’t last long.

Just half a year after Li Wanwan passed away, her stepmother began to dislike the original owner.

She was jealous of the original owner's unparalleled beauty.

So she kept whispering in the Phoenix Man's ear and even deliberately spread the original owner's portrait on the market.

Therefore.

The original owner's stunning beauty was passed on by word of mouth among the people and eventually reached the ears of the old emperor.

The old emperor asked his confidants to collect portraits of the original owner.

As soon as he saw the stunningly beautiful woman in the portrait, who looked like a fairy from heaven, his overindulged face suddenly lit up.

Just at this time, the national teacher came to report that the girl destined to be born with the Phoenix fate was from the general's mansion protecting the country.

And the only one left from the lineage of the National Defense General was the original owner, Li Xia.

The old emperor was overjoyed when he heard this.

He suddenly felt that his empire would finally have a successor.

turn out to be.

The present emperor is nearly fifty years old, yet he has no children.

When the old emperor was young, he was extremely licentious and had sex with both men and women, which destroyed the foundation.

His health deteriorated at a young age.

Every time the joy in the boudoir ended in less than half an hour.

The concubines in the harem didn't get any rain or dew, so naturally no one got pregnant.

It is impossible for the emperor not to be aware of what he has done.

The emperor can't.

None of the concubines had the courage to risk the extermination of their entire clan by secretly conceiving a baby through artificial insemination.

After all, this is something that can be easily exposed.

When the old emperor just turned thirty, he still did not believe in fate and thought that one day he would regain his glory.

It was not until he was over 40 that he had to choose a young child from among his relatives and adopt him as his own.

The national teacher once asserted.

The Eastern royal family will face a crisis of offspring. If they cannot resolve it, the glory of the Eastern royal family will not last long.

The solution is neither difficult nor easy.

It takes a girl with the Phoenix destiny to become the Queen of the East.

The difficulty lies in the fact that a woman with this kind of fate is hard to come by in a century.

But in the whole world, only the girl destined by heaven can give birth to an heir to the throne.

The old emperor waited for almost ten years, but he never got the girl of destiny with the Phoenix fate.

Unexpectedly, God treated him well in the end.

I have been waiting for the phoenix fate that only appears once in a hundred years.

The old emperor immediately issued an imperial decree.

Choose a day to marry the original owner and make her the queen.

The moment the imperial edict reached the general's mansion, the original owner's father was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.

For the first time in more than a decade, he actually showed concern and care for the original owner.

Good things that come unexpectedly are all purposeful.

The original owner had a simple mind, but he was not stupid at all.

What her biological father said completely chilled her heart.

For the latter thing, the original owner was resisting in his heart.

The old emperor is about the same age as her grandfather.

Which young girl would willingly give herself to an old man?

But the emperor has supreme power, how could he allow a mere orphan like her to say no?

Since his maternal grandfather and mother passed away one after another, the original owner thought that his biological father was gone as well.

With a father like this, she is no different from an orphan.

The original owner accepted her fate and entered the palace.

The old emperor didn't even have time to lift her veil. He secretly drank the unspeakable secret medicine with wine.

As a result, he developed a heart attack, his eyes turned black, and he kicked his legs and died.

On the wedding night, the original owner went from being a newlywed to a newly widow.

She hasn't even had time to get comfortable in the throne of Queen, but she's about to be promoted to Queen Mother.

She was also an unprecedented 16-year-old empress dowager.

The memory in Li Xia's mind came to an abrupt end at the wedding.

The name of the green-clad palace maid also appeared in her mind.

The palace maid's name was Yuzhu.

She was the personal maid that the original owner brought into the palace from the general's mansion. She brought two maids into the palace in total, and the other one was called Fuling.

They were all maids selected by Li Wanwan for the original owner, and they grew up with her since childhood.

One of them is calm and capable, the other is quirky, one is the original owner's right-hand man, and the other acts as her happy pill.

"Empress, please accept my condolences. His Majesty's affairs after his death will still depend on you to take charge of the overall situation." The eunuch raised his sleeves and wiped the corners of his tearless eyes.

Li Xia raised her eyes and looked around. She saw a group of palace maids and eunuchs kneeling on the ground, with their heads down and eyes closed, howling dryly, their cries were perfunctory.

The old emperor’s popularity was extremely bad.

None of the people who usually served him closely felt truly sad about his passing.

The emperor had failed miserably in doing this.

Yuzhu echoed the eunuch's words and nodded, "Empress, what Eunuch Fu said is right. Your Majesty, accept my condolences."

Her eyes were slightly red and her brows were full of heartache.

God is so blind.

Why do good people always have to go through so much hardship?

Disasters can easily last for thousands of years.

The national defense general fought for his country and the people all his life, but in the end he died on the battlefield.

The lady was kind-hearted and helped the poor people. She never used her power to oppress others and never beat or scolded the servants in her house at will.

Such a kind lady did not have a good ending.

On the contrary, the master who married into the general's mansion did so many excessive things, but he lived a fulfilling life.

He even took advantage of the young lady and became the king's uncle.

The lady also had a tragic fate.

All the relatives who were good to her are gone.

The stepmother is still a wolf in sheep's clothing, she behaves in one way in front of people and behind their backs.

It’s the same whether you have a biological father or not.

He watched his beautiful daughter marry the aged emperor without any reaction, and instead his face showed a look of secret joy that he could not conceal.

An imperial decree was issued.

No one cares about the lady's wishes.
