Did Empress Yuan replace the Empress Dowager's son?
The ministers felt heavy in their hearts, hoping that the Empress Yuan would not confuse the royal bloodline.
They looked at Emperor Yongxi and slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
Emperor Yongxi is obviously the son of the late emperor. He looks similar in appearance, body shape, and temperament. There is no doubt about it.
However, Emperor Yongxi was not born to the Empress Dowager, so who was his biological mother?
And where is the son born to the Queen Mother?
At that time, apart from the empress dowager, no concubine in the harem was pregnant.
The empress dowager's head was buzzing. She looked at Nanny Leng in disbelief, then at Emperor Yongxi.
"Impossible, the emperor is my biological son."
The thing that the empress dowager was most proud of in her life was not the favor of the late emperor, but the fact that she gave birth to a son, Emperor Yongxi.
She didn't care whether her son looked like her or not, as long as he looked like the late emperor.
If she is not like the late emperor, she will be in trouble.
So when the empress dowager saw that her son looked like the late emperor, she was happier than anyone else.
His son was gifted and outstanding, making all the princes of the previous emperor look mediocre.
She had conflicts with the late emperor many times, and even almost fell out of favor due to the endless tricks of the concubines in the harem.
Fortunately, she had this son, and the late emperor valued him a little more. Even if people like Concubine Li could take away her favor, her position as the queen was stable.
The Queen Mother knew in her heart that if it weren't for this outstanding son, she would have long been overtaken by Concubine Li and others.
She was also afraid of falling out of favor, so she used to focus more on the late emperor and even neglected her son.
However, the Queen Mother did not feel any guilt, as she was doing this for the future of her and her son.
But now she heard that Emperor Yongxi was not her son, but was replaced by Empress Yuan's deceased elder sister.
The Queen Mother couldn't believe it and wanted to go up and tear Nanny Leng apart.
Emperor Yongxi's eyes widened. "How is this possible? Who is my biological mother?"
Everyone looked over, and Nanny Leng said:
"It's Concubine Rong."
"Jieyu Rong is dead, how could it be Jieyu Rong?"
The Queen Mother sneered.
Everyone nodded in agreement. Nanny Gong had just said that the Queen Mother had killed Concubine Rong. How could Concubine Rong still be alive and give birth to Emperor Yongxi?
Nanny Leng said, "Jieyu Rong is not dead. She was saved by Empress Yuan, but her face was disfigured. She didn't want to face the world and was determined to commit suicide. Nanny diagnosed that Jieyu Rong was pregnant, so Empress Yuan comforted her and allowed her to live in Fengyi Palace."
The Empress Dowager's face twisted instantly. She was pregnant when she entered the palace. Her eldest sister arranged for her to live in Fengyi Palace. She used the excuse of taking care of the fetus as she was afraid of getting sick.
The late emperor then rearranged her palace.
But she often went to pay her respects to the sick Empress Yuan with her belly bulging, deliberately provoking her.
He was determined that the Empress would not dare to let anything happen to the fetus in her belly.
Later, Empress Yuan refused to let her come to pay her respects, claiming she was ill.
I didn't expect that Concubine Rong was hiding in Fengyi Palace at that time.
"I don't believe it. Don't you think it's nonsense? Just let me believe this unfounded thing."
The Queen Mother tried her best to calm herself down.
Nanny Leng asked, "Doesn't the Queen Mother want to know where her son has gone?"
The Queen Mother's hands trembled, and she raised her chin, looking as if she was disdainful of Nanny Leng.
Emperor Yongxi asked, "Where did he go?"
Nanny Leng sighed: "He went to the Jiang family."
The Queen Mother stood up suddenly and asked, "Where is it at the Jiang family?"
The ministers thought that the Queen Mother didn't believe it, but they didn't expect that she also cared about it.
The empress dowager was very eager at this time. There were several children in the Jiang family or the Jiang clan who were the same age as Emperor Yongxi, and each of them had many children.
After recognizing her son, she immediately caused Mrs. Bei to have a miscarriage. No, she wanted Mrs. Bei to give birth to an unlucky son.
This destroyed Emperor Yongxi's offspring and throne.
By then, the throne should return to his son.
She was the successor of the previous emperor, and her son was the legitimate prince.
The Queen Mother had beautiful thoughts in her mind, and her eyes showed hope.
But the next moment, Nanny Leng poured a basin of cold water on her.
"The Duke of the Crown Prince had been childless for many years, much to the displeasure of the previous Duke. The Crown Prince's wife was pregnant with a girl, so Empress Yuan sent the Queen Mother's son to the Jiang family to join the Crown Prince's wife's third daughter, making them twins..."
The Queen Mother felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, her heart was chilled to the core, and she was stunned like a wooden chicken!
Bang!
The Queen Mother's eyes went dark and she fainted.
"Empress Dowager"
"Queen Mother"
Emperor Yongxi hurriedly said, "Quickly call the imperial physician."
This incident was a huge blow to the Queen Mother.
Totally unacceptable.
The Queen Mother was already dissatisfied with the legitimate branch of the family. After she became pregnant and entered the palace, she got the help from her father and became even more ambitious. She wanted to squeeze out her legitimate sister and take the throne, and she also wanted her own brother to become the heir to the Duke's Mansion.
The eldest brother has no children and the eldest sister is ill, which is undoubtedly a great opportunity for the empress dowager.
Therefore, my father attached great importance to their branch of the family and placed high expectations on the empress dowager.
When the eldest sister-in-law was pregnant, the imperial physician diagnosed that it was a girl, and the empress dowager was even more relieved.
Unexpectedly, the baby gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl.
The Queen Mother was also happy to hear that the little nephew was a little weak. After her younger brother got married, he had two nephews, both of whom were very healthy and were more loved by their father.
However, as his eldest brother's son grew up day by day, he was no longer as weak as he was when he was young. In addition, they were twins, a boy and a girl, so his father's heart gradually shifted.
The child fell into the water and died when he was five years old. His eldest brother accused his younger brother of murdering his nephew.
The Queen Mother's brother naturally did not admit it, but the Queen Mother knew that it was her brother who took action.
The Empress Dowager died, and she was already the next Empress. Her father was wavering, so her brother had no choice but to take action.
When she found out, she expressed regret for the death of her eldest brother's son, shed a few tears, and spoke for her younger brother in front of the late emperor.
Moreover, there was no evidence to prove that it was her own brother who murdered her. In the end, the late emperor let her eldest brother inherit the title and made her own brother the Duke of Guo, which put an end to the matter.
The Queen Mother was extremely happy at that time. She was secretly delighted and greatly admired her brother for his decisiveness, otherwise he would not have been granted the title of Duke.
My father's heart has always been biased towards his legitimate bloodline.
Since they are illegitimate children, if they want to get something, they have to work harder and use any means necessary.
But now he finds out that the nephew his younger brother killed is his own son.
The Queen Mother suffered from angina pectoris and felt terrible when she woke up. She could not accept this fact.
Bei Lingyao's spiritual sense struck, and the Queen Mother went completely crazy.
Emperor Yongxi did not keep secret what happened in the palace, and the news was now widely spread inside and outside the palace.
The Empress Dowager's younger brother rushed directly to his eldest brother's Duke's Mansion and wanted to fight to the death.
If his eldest brother and eldest sister had not stolen his sister's prince, his nephew would have been on the throne now, and he would not have killed his own nephew.
This time, the Queen Mother's brother did not tolerate his half-brother and beat him severely.
The Queen Mother's brother brought people with him, and the two houses immediately started fighting.
