Halfway through the banquet, the emperor's eldest grandson suddenly vomited blood and fell into a coma.
The emperor was furious and ordered a thorough investigation of the matter. How could such a dirty thing happen at his banquet? If the person behind the scenes was caught, he would never let him off easily.
The investigation soon led to the prince's concubine, and Yuan Xixi knelt on the ground and cried out that she was innocent.
"Father, I am innocent! Someone must have deliberately framed me. The eldest grandson is the Crown Prince's only son. How could I possibly hurt him? Please investigate this matter thoroughly."
The Crown Princess looked at her with vicious eyes.
"Of course you have reason to harm my son, because you are already pregnant. If you get rid of my son, the child in your belly will be the crown prince's eldest son. You are also deeply favored by the crown prince. Then, I, the crown princess who has lost favor and lost my son, will be at your mercy."
Yuan Xixi cried pitifully, with big tears streaming down her face.
"Sister, how could you wrong me like this? I've never thought of it that way! I've always respected you, never forgotten my own identity, and never thought of replacing you. Why would you think that?"
Situ Ming also stood up and said:
"Xian'er, stop messing around. Xixi wouldn't do that. She's always been weak and wouldn't even hurt an ant. How could she be so cruel as to hurt Lin'er?"
In the end, Yuan Xixi's personal maid stepped forward and took it all.
"Your Majesty, all of this was done by me. My concubine has nothing to do with it. The eldest grandson of the emperor often bullied us servants in the mansion. He even pushed me into the pond, so I held a grudge against him. I never thought that I would almost cause such a disaster. I deserve death and am willing to die as an apology."
Caught off guard, the maid bit her tongue and committed suicide.
Lin Xiaoyu had been watching everything from the side. He smiled at Yuan Xixi and then looked at her belly.
Yuan Xixi was so scared that she gently stroked her belly.
She knew that all this was done by Princess Yu, but she didn't know how she did it.
The young prince, who should have been poisoned, was safe and sound, but the emperor's eldest grandson fell to the ground and could not get up.
"Host, that woman will definitely not give up. She must be planning a big move."
"What are you afraid of? She has to have a chance too, right?"
"Host, what are you going to do?"
How to do it? Of course, nip the danger in the bud.
I don't want to have a long-term relationship with them, it's a waste of time.
The Jade King was left in the imperial city by the emperor and was now preparing to leave the city to go south to provide disaster relief.
"Host, are you worried about the prince going on a long journey? Aren't you afraid that the crown prince will send someone to assassinate him?"
"I believe he has the ability to protect himself. If that doesn't work out, doesn't he still have a son? I will support Ao Ze to inherit the throne."
The host is really heartless. After such a long time, the prince has not cared about him at all. He is really a weirdo.
Despite such a great contribution to the floods in the south, my father didn't even let me go!
Situ Ming went crazy in the study again and smashed everything in the room to pieces.
At this time, only Yuan Xixi dared to go in and persuade them.
"Your Highness, please stop now and don't make any noise. Be careful not to let someone with ulterior motives tell your father about it."
"Xixi, I'm heartbroken! I'm living in fear as the Crown Prince, afraid that someone will replace me one day."
"Unlike other princes, I don't have the support of powerful families. My mother was just a maid. It's really not easy for her to get to this point. Could it be that I can't even keep the position of Crown Prince that I fought so hard for?"
Seeing him like this, Yuan Xixi's heart ached and her eyes became determined.
"Your Highness, with Xixi here, you can only be the crown prince. In Xixi's heart and eyes, no one is more suitable to be the crown prince than you."
Even if I try so hard, I still can’t change the outcome?
From the moment I entered the book, from the moment I saw him, I fell deeply in love with him.
In order to change his ending in the book, he risked his entire family being beheaded and poisoned Situ Yu. But he was not cruel enough. If he had known earlier, he would have killed him at the beginning, and this situation would not have happened now, right?
That day in the Jade Prince's Palace, Lin Xiaoyu was about to put a piece of cake into his mouth.
"Host, don't eat it. It's poisonous."
I didn't expect that before I even bothered her, she couldn't wait to come to me.
"Host, how do you know it was her who poisoned you?"
"After all, they are from the Prince's Mansion. Apart from them, I can't think of anyone else."
The princes in the palace are still young, and the only adult princes are Situ Yu and Situ Ming. Otherwise, how could he be the crown prince?
In the side courtyard of the Prince's Mansion, Yuan Xixi was listlessly sitting in the courtyard, waiting for news from the Jade Prince's Mansion.
At this time, the maid brought a plate of cakes.
"My Lady, the sweet-scented osmanthus cake you asked the kitchen to make is ready."
Yuan Xixi took a piece of meat and put it into her mouth without thinking.
As soon as I ate it, I felt unbearable abdominal pain and there was a trace of blood at the corner of my mouth.
“Ah! My stomach hurts so much…!”
The imperial physicians came in and out, and finally all knelt in front of the prince with embarrassed expressions.
"I am incompetent. I beg Your Highness the Crown Prince to forgive me."
"Get out! Get out of here!"
Situ Ming looked at the pale person on the bed.
"Xixi, it's okay. We can have more children. When you recover, we can have another hundred or eighty of them, okay?"
"Your Highness, I may not be able to hold on any longer. My body knows what's happening. Oh, oh, oh...! But, I may not be able to accompany you."
I really love him, how can I bear to leave him alone to suffer in this world? When I think of his future, Yuan Xixi's heart aches.
"No, you said you would always be with me, did you forget? You said you would protect me."
The prince held her hand tightly.
Yuan Xixi knew that she didn't have much time left, and she remembered everything. It turned out that this was her second life here. In the first life, she was successful. Situ Yu had no children in his life, and Situ Ming ascended the throne. She was his queen. Although he had three thousand beauties in his harem, his love for her never diminished.
Unfortunately, her memory returned too late. After taking one last deep look at the man she loved, she could only hold on tight and make a long story short.
"I know I love you. Even without me in the future, you must live bravely. Remember to avenge me and kill Princess Yu. Everything is because of her. She is the variable. As long as you kill her and her child, everything will return to the starting point. You will still be a noble emperor in the future."
But I am no longer your queen. I am really unwilling to accept this and I can’t bear to part with him!
The prince's concubine died of illness. She was just a minor concubine and did not cause much of a stir.
On the contrary, because of her death, the position of the prince's concubine became vacant, and many noble ladies who admired the prince started to set their sights on it.
When the prince saw the Jade King and his wife again, he looked at Lin Xiaoyu deeply.
In the past, I only thought that Princess Yu was beautiful, but because she came from the countryside, I never took her seriously.
But the person who could make Xixi mention him before her death must not be a simple person. It seems that I have to pay special attention to her.
