Chapter 719: Strategy for the Blind Villain (15)
Ji Yun hurried to the Dongsheng Hall and saw the Queen laughing crazily. She looked at the silent Emperor beside her. After receiving no response, she walked towards the Queen in the same silence.
"Ji Yun, you are here." The Queen looked at her and greeted her in a good mood. At the same time, she took back the hairpin in her hand. The Emperor did not care about his life in the first place. This move just now was just to confirm his guess.
Ji Yun thought that it was the Emperor who summoned her today, but the Emperor's silence told her that she had misunderstood. Then, it was the Queen in front of her who summoned her... Her eyes paused for a moment, and she made a compassionate gesture, "Queen, I am sorry."
"Queen? When did you and I become so unfamiliar? Why do you have to pretend to be unfamiliar with me? In the past, we had the best relationship, didn't we?" The Queen stretched out her hand to grab her collar, smiled gently, and ripped off the Dongzhu on it.
If I remember correctly, this Dongzhu was once the best one offered to the palace. She had intended to use this batch of oriental pearls to inlay a new phoenix crown, but when she went to ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs for them, they no longer had them. She thought at the time that the emperor had taken these oriental pearls for something. It turned out that they were given to Ji Yun as a reward!
Ji Yun did not expect her to be so out of control. She took a step back, but was restrained by her. As for the oriental pearl on her collar, she did not care much about it. She had a lot of good things, so she did not lack such a pearl.
"If you have done nothing wrong, why are you hiding?" The queen glared at the woman in front of her fiercely. If it were not for her, how could Lu'er die? Lu'er was the best child in the world. He should have sat on the throne of the emperor and honored her all his life.
"Queen, calm down." Ji Yun wanted to push her away, but she tied her hands.
"Ji Yun, have you forgotten? I am the daughter of a military commander." The queen smiled softly, looking at the indifferent emperor beside her, her voice like honey melted in syrup, "Your Majesty, look, the two women who are most important to you are here. Tell me, who is the one in your heart?"
She wanted to hear it.
She wanted to hear him say it himself.
She didn't believe that every bit of their relationship over the years was fake.
The emperor was tired of the competition for favor in the harem, and now there was another competition for favor. He glanced at them with indifferent eyes, and said with a stern voice, "What exactly do you want to do? Do you want to overthrow my government?"
The queen laughed, "Overthrow your government? Your legitimate son can be assassinated under the attention of so many officials, and your government is not far from being overthrown."
"Enough." Ji Yun shook off her hand, "Queen, you are crazy enough."
"Crazy? I'm not crazy." The queen pointed at her with her fingertips, her eyes full of madness.
Did she know about her past? Ji Yun thought to herself that it was not good. The next second, the queen really shouted out regardless, "You are crazy. You are crazy."
The emperor's expression was always so calm, so calm that people could not tell his true joy, anger, sorrow or happiness. "Go back when you have had enough trouble. Lu'er's body should be brought back tonight."
"How can you say it so easily? How can you?" The queen grabbed her hair tightly and pulled off the phoenix crown on her head. "Have you been planning this for a long time? In order for that little blind man to take the throne, you have been planning to get rid of my Lu'er." After she said this, she seemed to have lost all her strength and slid to the ground. There were no tears, as she had cried dry long ago.
Ji Yun looked at the emperor. Although she was eager to recognize her son and even wanted to restore his status as a prince, she was not so crazy as to kill her nephew. She was afraid that the emperor had misunderstood her.
The emperor did not look at her, and he did not have the courage to look at her. At this moment, he could only purse his lips and said nothing.
He thought that the development of all things was in his hands, and he had everything under control, but Lu'er's death was like a cold slap in his face.
But his Lu'er was dead. The successor he had worked so hard to train was dead. Was he going to cry like a woman? He was the king of a country. He could only hide all his sorrow in his heart.
"You and Ji Yun are birds of a feather. You are all bitches, you are all beasts. You are all emotionless animals." The queen half-knelt on the ground and cursed, without any demeanor of the most noble woman in the world. At this moment, she was just a poor mother who had lost her child.
The emperor understood, Ji Yun also understood, and no one blamed her.
The queen yelled even louder, "I will publicize your scandals and let all the subjects of the world see their noble emperor. They think they are noble! My Lu'er is dead, and all the people in your Ji family will have a hard time. I will also make Ji Jingrong, that little blind man, die a miserable death."
Ji Yun admitted her resentment towards herself, but her son was her Achilles' heel, and Ji Yun could not bear it, so she immediately said angrily, "You dare."
"Don't you know whether I dare or not?" The queen looked at her belly viciously, and her smile made people's scalps numb.
She understood everything. No one in the world understood better than herself why Ji Jingrong, the little blind man, was blind.
Ji Yun was just lucky to become a princess. If she were in Ji Yun's position, she would definitely do better than Ji Yun. How could an unpopular princess compare to the dignity of herself, who was about to become the queen. When she decided to marry into the royal family, she had already regarded Ji Yun as a thorn in her side. Therefore, she often invited Ji Yun to drink tea and play with her, and she would prepare generous gifts for Ji Yun every time. She originally planned to kill Ji Yun silently, but halfway through the plan, Ji Yun was actually married to a powerful official by the emperor. She became a widow at a young age and then stayed indoors.
This was the first time that Ji Yun saw her eyes so resentful, and this resentment did not seem to arise suddenly, as if it had been accumulated for a long time. She stepped back a few steps in fear.
"Ji Yun, do you think your blind son can help you become the most honorable woman in the world? Impossible." The queen sighed softly, "Do you know that the heavens have been angered, so they will punish you and make your son born blind. A blind man who has never seen the sun, can you expect him to bring you honor? Don't dream."
Her last sentence was so decisive, like an invisible knife stabbing into Ji Yun's softest chest.
Ji Yun suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
"The Queen is so sad that she has gone mad. Tonight, all the palace maids will have their tongues cut off." The Emperor's expression was calm.
