Chapter 2: The Angry Emperor with No Heirs x The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Concubine 2
Mo Liyuan frowned, his tone full of annoyance, "What is she doing here?"
The Queen Mother's tone was quite gentle. "Mammy, let her in. After all, she is still the Queen now."
Empress Shen was holding the hand of a five-year-old boy, and her heart was in turmoil.
Nanny Zhang was also filled with worry, feeling that the Empress was going to be cheated again this time.
"I pay my respects to the Queen Mother and the Emperor."
"Come, Chen'er, pay your respects to the Empress Dowager and the Emperor."
The little child was still not very sensible, and his eyes were full of confusion. After hearing the Queen's words, he knelt down obediently and said, "Greetings to the Queen Mother and the Emperor."
Mo Liyuan saw that the empress was not in a good mood at all. The reason was that five years ago, Concubine Yu Gui was pregnant, but she had a miscarriage when she was three months pregnant. The culprit was pointed at the empress. Although the empress was not deposed, Mo Liyuan never went to the empress's Yongning Palace again.
"What the hell is wrong with you?"
Hearing the emperor's ruthless words, the queen felt a little aggrieved. No matter what she had done wrong, she was still the emperor's wife.
However, when she thought about the purpose of her visit, she suppressed her thoughts and said, "Mother, Your Majesty, this is my nephew from my mother's family. I want to adopt him as my adopted son."
Mo Liyuan was so angry when he heard this that he picked up the teacup on the table and threw it in front of the Queen.
"Snap"
"Queen"
"Don't treat others as fools. Do you think others don't know what's going on in your mind? Are you so sure that I won't have children in the future?"
The Queen Mother was also disappointed. "Alas, the Queen is so confused."
The queen bit her lip. Although she was afraid in her heart, she still gritted her teeth and said, "Your Majesty, I adopted Chen'er for no other reason. I just wanted him to enter the palace to accompany me."
Seeing that the queen was still making excuses at this point, Mo Liyuan looked at her with hatred in his eyes.
"Someone come here!"
"Send the Queen's nephew out of the palace, and confine her to the Yongning Palace."
"Your Majesty," the queen quickly knelt down in front of Mo Liyuan, "I know you have many complaints against me, but I was also framed at the time."
"What are you still standing there for? Do you want me to do it myself?" Mo Liyuan couldn't bear it anymore and got angry at Ma De who was still standing there.
Mad was so frightened that his legs were shaking. He didn't care whether the person in front of him was the queen or not. He grabbed her arm and prepared to lift his feet.
"Let go, I will walk on my own"
The queen saw that it would not work today, so she rolled her eyes, stood up, and bowed to the head of the table in a proper manner. "I know that I am rude, and I hope that the queen mother and the emperor can think about what I said."
Mo Liyuan's chest rose and fell violently with anger. He gritted his teeth and said, "Mother, I want to depose you. I hope you will not stop me."
The Queen Mother shook her head, extremely disappointed with the Queen's actions. "Forget it, I don't care anymore, Your Majesty, you can handle it yourself."
When the empress returned to Yongning Palace, she smashed all the porcelain in the room. She was not at all as dignified as she had been in Cining Palace.
"Your Majesty, you are impulsive." Nanny Zhang was the Queen's wet nurse. The Queen would still listen to what she said, but that was all.
"Mammy, you don't understand"
"Now, which civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty are not anxious for the emperor to choose a son of a relative as the crown prince?"
"Rather than choosing someone else, it would be better for me to act earlier and let Chen'er become my adopted son. Even if he competes for the position of crown prince in the future, my chances of winning will be greater."
The queen sat on the chair, holding her forehead with her hand and her brows furrowed.
Aunt Zhang opened her mouth and sighed, "Your Majesty, the emperor is still young after all. If he really has children in the future, how will you deal with it, Your Majesty?"
"Heh" the queen laughed coldly. If she really adopted Chen'er as her adopted son, she would never allow the women in the harem to give birth to a prince.
In any case, she was bound to become the empress dowager.
Qing'er whispered something in Concubine Yu's ear, causing Concubine Yu to raise her eyebrows as she drank her tea. "Oh?"
"My Lady, should we do something?"
Concubine Yu Gui put down her teacup and waved her hands, "No need, the Queen is courting her own death, I will just wait and see what happens."
Even though she had a miscarriage caused by the Empress five years ago, she was not able to be deposed by the Empress. Now it is even more impossible. The Emperor can only depose her because he can no longer tolerate her.
Aunt Qiao was unaware of the turmoil in the palace. Although her life was hard these days, she was free. When she was hungry, she would find some fruits in the mountains. If she had no money, she would catch fish in the river and grill them.
Lying on the grass and looking at the white clouds in the sky, Aunt Qiao smiled, thinking that things must be in chaos on the farm now.
Aunt Qiao was right, her younger sister was killing servants on the farm.
"You bastards, a bunch of bastards, you can't even take care of a bastard, what do you do for a living?"
"Hit me, hit me hard"
"Miss, please spare my life. I know I was wrong."
The sound of sticks hitting flesh echoed throughout the courtyard.
Li Huaijiang frowned, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, "Sister Zhen, why do you have to get angry over a jerk?"
After all, Li Huaijiang was the person Qiao Zhenzhen liked. Hearing this, she pouted and said, "Brother Huaijiang, it's still useful for father to keep her."
Seeing Li Huaijiang's puzzled expression, Qiao Zhenzhen explained in a low voice beside him.
"Really?"
Qiao Zhenzhen nodded affirmatively, "That's absolutely true. Now is the critical time."
Li Huaijiang narrowed his eyes, thought for a moment and said, "Then we really have to find her. We must not ruin the Prime Minister's business."
"Send someone out to look for him immediately. Make sure you find him as soon as possible."
The guards following Li Huaijiang were all from his mansion. They were quite skilled in fighting. When they heard Li Huaijiang's order, they all raised their fists and said "yes".
"Don't worry, Sister Zhen, Brother Huaijiang will definitely help you find that bastard."
Qiao Zhenzhen curled the corners of her lips in mockery. What does it matter if he's good-looking? He's still her defeated opponent.
"Brother Huaijiang is so nice"
Li Huaijiang took advantage of the situation and embraced Qiao Zhenzhen in his arms. "Sister Zhen is my wife from now on. If I don't treat you well, who else should I treat well?"
"Humph." Qiao Zhenzhen got angry when she talked about this. She pouted and said to Li Huaijiang coquettishly, "That bitch is engaged to Brother Huaijiang."
Li Huaijiang's eyes flashed with annoyance, but he quickly hid it. "In my heart, I only have sister Zhen. It's only a matter of time before we cancel the engagement."
The sound of horse hooves echoed on the path. The queue of carriages in the palace was very long. This time, the only masters of the palace who came to Jiuhua Mountain to pray for blessings were the Empress Dowager and the Emperor. No other concubines were brought along.
Although the favored Concubine Yu Guifei had some complaints, she dared not say a word in order to maintain her gentle and submissive personality.
[Ding, alert, alert, the hero Mo Liyuan has arrived at the foot of Mount Jiuhua, please be prepared, please be prepared! ]
