Looking at the spring rain blocking his way, the emperor took a deep breath and his face was gloomier than ever before. Fortunately, he didn't say much.
He only asked the imperial physician to try his best and then turned around and went to Kunning Palace.
The Queen was listening to Nan Yue's report of the tragic situation in Changchun Palace. She held a tea of scented tea in her hand with a faint smile on her lips. When she heard that the Emperor had arrived, a hint of joy appeared between her eyebrows.
He put down the teacup in his hand and walked quickly forward.
"Your Highness..."
Bang!
Before the queen could finish her words, the emperor slapped her in the face without mercy. This slap stunned the queen.
He covered his face and looked at the person beside him, his eyes full of disbelief.
But the emperor didn't even give the queen a chance to speak. He stepped forward and grabbed her neck, his slightly red eyes filled with unspeakable rage. "Without my approval, who allowed you to attack Concubine Zhengui?"
"Queen, you are so capable!"
It seemed as if he had used up all his strength, and veins bulged on the emperor's arms. In just a short moment, the queen's face had turned purple, she could hardly breathe, and even speaking was a dream.
The queen's body became weaker and weaker, and later she could hardly even support her face when standing.
Nan Yue, standing aside, panicked. He didn't care about hierarchy and frantically tried to pry the emperor's hands open, his mind racing. "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, spare my life!"
"The Empress never laid a hand on the child in Concubine Zhengui's belly. You misunderstood her! Your Majesty!"
Seeing that the queen was breathing out more than breathing in, Nan Yue knew that she could never match the emperor's strength, not to mention that the other party was the Son of Heaven, and her dragon body was really injured.
It doesn't matter to her, but it might end up harming the queen.
Nan Yue was at a loss and could only kneel at the emperor's feet, kowtow one after another. Soon, her forehead was covered with blood, which flowed down her cheeks.
Looking at Nan Yue in front of him, the emperor didn't know what he was thinking, but finally let go of her hand.
The moment she breathed in the fresh air, the queen no longer cared about her dignified image. She fell to the ground, breathing heavily, fighting for every chance to stay alive.
However, the emperor turned a blind eye to her embarrassment. Instead, the color in his eyes became even more scarlet as he let go of her hand. "Ah Huan, the Queen should give me an explanation."
"Explain what?"
After a long while, the queen was able to open her mouth with difficulty. The voice that came out was hoarse and deep, and one could almost smell the smell of blood from her tone.
No longer paying attention to her messy hair and the dusty court dress, the Queen slowly stood up and asked, "Your Majesty, what explanation do you want from me?"
"Don't say that the matter of Concubine Zhengui has nothing to do with me. Even if it does, what does Your Majesty want to do to me? Kill me?"
The queen almost screamed at the last sentence, no longer caring about her face.
The emperor clenched his teeth, and it looked like he was about to take action again, without any of the cold and indifferent demeanor of a Buddhist.
But the Queen stared at him intently, a smile on her face that revealed a bit of madness, a desire to destroy both herself and the enemy. "Your Majesty, have you forgotten that, regardless of whether I took action or not, when the time comes, you will have to take action yourself?"
"The baby of Concubine Zhengui was never meant to be kept!"
"I hereby declare that the Empress has suffered a sudden bout of hysteria, gone mad, and injured others. She is now temporarily confined to Kunning Palace. No one is allowed to visit her without my permission!"
The emperor finally left.
That resolute back seemed to have drained the queen's last bit of strength. The dull pain in her heart was so severe that she could no longer feel the pain on her face and neck.
Nan Yue tried to help the Queen up by rolling and crawling, tears streaming down her face. She clutched her arm tightly, feeling very disappointed. "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you are so confused!"
"If you say that, aren't you admitting that you did it? Now that you're imprisoned in Kunning Palace, what are you going to do in the future?"
The queen sat on the ground in a daze. When she heard Nan Yue's words, she smiled and reached out to touch Nan Yue's cheek. "It doesn't matter."
"I should have seen clearly long ago that this man has never been reliable. It's only now that he's willing to admit this fact... I've wronged you."
"Such a respectable aunt will have to suffer here with me from now on."
Nan Yue quickly shook her head.
Bitter? How could she feel bitter?
She has been with the queen since she was a child. If there was no queen, she would have been sold to a brothel long ago, with her life or death uncertain. How could she still feel bitter now?
Nan Yue sniffed, "This slave is not miserable. As long as I can be with the young lady, I will be very happy!"
The word "Miss" made the Queen's expression suddenly clear. She leaned on Nan Yue and slowly relaxed her body. "It's good now. I can finally be myself. I can finally..."
"Miss, but why did the emperor do this?"
Nan Yue spoke very obscurely, but the Queen understood.
The man's first child came out of her belly and died little by little in her arms.
At this point, the Queen knew the situation was hopeless and relaxed completely. She simply shrunk back into Nan Yue's arms, "Of course it's because he's not the late Emperor's son at all."
"How could a bastard dare to leave himself a handle?"
The queen's breathing gradually slowed down, as if she was about to fall asleep.
The royal family has many secrets, such as the diseases that royal descendants are born with.
This lineage will develop rashes all over the body within a month after birth. The densely packed rashes look scary. Fortunately, although this disease looks scary, it is not fatal and seems to be good for the body.
So no one has ever taken it seriously.
As for the current emperor, he is said to be the child of the late emperor, but in fact the late queen gave birth to a daughter, and the virtuous concubine at that time was about to give birth.
Worried that the title of the eldest son would be taken, the princess became the prince instead of the prince.
Not many people knew about this matter. Even the emperor himself only found out about it before the empress dowager passed away, so he looked at the child born from her belly.
The baby grew up healthily day by day without any rash, which made the emperor panic.
This panic finally reached its peak when an old man in the palace became suspicious. That man strangled his own child to death with his own hands!
As long as he doesn't have children, no one will ever... ever know this secret!
Of course, Lin Chunhuan couldn't keep the child. Seeing Chunyu crying uncontrollably, he reached out and wiped away her tears, "Don't cry, it's those two children who are unlucky."
"It will be fine."
Although he was saying encouraging words, Chunyu couldn't bear to look at that smiling face.
Her master is the saddest one!
