When the Empress Dowager learned about this, she came to visit Xu Lingyi.
"After all, she has been with the emperor for many years and gave birth to Princess Minghua. Although I know that she wanted to harm you last time, she is about to leave now..."
Xu Lingyi nodded. This was exactly what she wanted, so she naturally didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
Besides, this kind of thing is normal, and she cannot control what the emperor wants to do.
"Don't worry, I don't take this matter to heart, nor do I feel uncomfortable. I think this is reasonable and shows that Your Majesty values friendship and loyalty."
If the emperor was not moved at all, she would be worried about the cold-blooded man beside her.
"You are the most sensible person in this palace. Your mother has raised a good daughter."
After the Queen Mother comforted her and made sure she was fine, she began to praise each other with Madam Xu.
The Queen Mother praised Madam Xu for her good qualities and her daughter, but Madam Xu shook her head and modestly said that she was not good.
Xu Lingyi quickly found an excuse to go out. She didn't like sitting with the two elders.
She thought that Princess Minghua would probably enter the palace at this time.
The coldness shown by the Empress Dowager and the Emperor during this period must have been a heavy blow to the proud princess.
It was enough for her to be reborn and learn her lesson.
At least she will definitely learn to behave well in front of His Majesty and the Queen Mother.
When the emperor and the empress dowager saw the princess whom they hadn't seen for many days, wouldn't they have felt any emotion in their hearts?
Definitely not. I hope Princess Minghua will be smarter this time and not be caught by the Emperor and the Queen Mother in advance. She will also find a way to help her.
————
"What did you say?" Princess Minghua grabbed the maid's hand.
"My mother is seriously ill. How could this happen? My mother is so young, she is only in her thirties?" Princess Minghua couldn't believe it.
During this period of time, she experienced the fickleness of human nature.
Since she had not entered the palace for a long time, many people in the capital had speculated that she had angered the empress dowager and the emperor and had fallen out of favor.
Princess Minghua just thought it was ridiculous. She was the emperor's biological daughter. Could she be worried that her father would dislike her?
She is not one of those playthings in the harem who relies on her father's favor to survive.
Before knowing that Xu was pregnant, Princess Minghua didn't care about these things at all. She was even angry with the Emperor and the Empress Dowager, waiting for them to coax her before she would forgive what happened this time.
As a result, she only received the news that Xu was five months pregnant.
She did not attend the palace banquet that time. Only after it was over did she learn from others that Xu had been pregnant for a long time.
Everything became clear because Xu was pregnant, and she was no longer her father's only daughter.
Even Xu's belly and the unborn child were more important than her.
Because he might be a prince.
If it was a prince, the crisis of his father having no offspring would be resolved.
Therefore, both the Empress Dowager and the Emperor cared more about Xu's belly.
They were probably afraid that she would deal with Xu, but she didn't make any move at all, so they were on guard against her in their hearts.
At this moment, she collapsed on the ground, feeling a surge of crisis in her heart.
She absolutely could not let Xu give birth to this child. Her situation was already precarious before Xu gave birth, and her father and grandmother also treated her so coldly and were wary of her.
If Xu gave birth safely, would there still be a place for her to stay in the palace?
This time it was my mother, and next time I’ll probably deal with her.
She absolutely could not sit still and wait for death.
Princess Minghua hid the suppressed hatred in her heart and prepared to enter the palace.
"Princess, would you like to wear this dress or change into something more plain and elegant?" The maid brought the clothes carefully.
"Bitch." Princess Minghua kicked her away. "My mother is dying, what do you think? Stupid, bitch!"
Princess Minghua forgot that she made this dress yesterday and she said yesterday that she must wear it.
But today, news came from the palace that Princess Minghua's mother was seriously ill.
The princess had always been cruel, and the nanny was undecided for a moment and did not dare to step forward, so she sent this maid.
As a result, the maid was kicked by Princess Minghua until she vomited blood.
This maidservant is just a punching bag for the princess.
"Beat this slave to death with a club."
The emperor sent secret guards to Princess Minghua.
When he and Xu Lingyi learned about this, the emperor just frowned slightly and sighed.
"She is too worried about her mother."
The emperor was the superior and did not cherish this life. He was born high and mighty and did not think human life was important. The emperor himself had killed many people, including his own brothers and sisters, as well as many slaves and ministers.
He could even find reasons for his daughter's behavior.
Xu Lingyi was also born into a noble family.
If it weren't for what happened in her previous life, if her mother and sister-in-law hadn't been poisoned by the princess, she wouldn't have realized the problem.
The environment she was in made her feel that it was normal to execute slaves who were lower in status than herself.
Having power means that you can easily kill a person or a life.
But they didn't know that apart from the emperor, there were people with higher status above them.
Only if one day the butcher's knife falls on you will you know this kind of pain.
They also didn't know that this palace maid also had a family.
If she were the emperor, she would only draw her knife towards those who deserved to be killed, and she would never show mercy to her enemies.
She also agreed with the emperor's ruthless approach to ascending to power.
But she would not be like those who should not have died, those innocent people, innocent civilians.
Her abilities are limited now, and there's no way she can change it, but she might be able to do so in the future...
