Chapter 847 Young General vs. Rich Lady 150
All the palace servants left, leaving only the Queen Mother and Prince Wei in the room.
The Queen Mother wiped away her tears and said softly, "Yin'er, issue the decree. You can't change their mind in this situation. I am not saying that I will abandon General Huo. Let's get through this first and then make long-term plans."
Wei Yin suddenly jumped off the bed and pulled the Queen Mother's other hand, "Mother! You are injured! How did the people below serve you? A group of people have been cleared out, who else dares to be so presumptuous!"
The Queen Mother couldn't hide it, so she could only open her palm to show Wei Yin, "It's nothing, it's just a cut from the scissors. I was trying to make a dress for you, but I got hurt accidentally."
Wei Yin didn't believe it at all. He already had a guess in his mind that the Regent must have gone to his mother's palace again!
When he was young, the Regent loved him very much. When he was young and ignorant, he even called the Regent "Daddy", and the Regent responded and treated him like his own son.
He thought he was very lucky, as he was born the King of Wei. His father died early, but he had a mother and uncle who loved him, so he lacked nothing.
One day, everything changed! His uncle who loved him disappeared, and only an evil ghost who wanted to kill him was left!
He found out both the true and false sets of Tongshi, and had a vague answer in his mind, but he couldn't say it, he couldn't even mention it. He couldn't let his mother know that he had found it. If any word of this got out, how would his mother deal with it?
The Queen Mother can only die.
Wei Yin took out the medicine box, which was also given to him by Ji Yunhuan. It contained some commonly used medicines. The imperial physician had checked it and had someone else try it, and the medicine was very effective.
Wei Yin took out the medicine powder and sprinkled it on the wound, then clumsily put on a sterile dressing. This thing was much more convenient than gauze and was also waterproof.
The Queen Mother looked at her child, feeling very reluctant. She touched her son's head and advised: "Yin'er, be obedient. Just pretend to be sick. It's all your fault. Give the jade seal to your mother. It was your mother who issued the imperial edict. General Huo will not blame you."
"And Miss Ji, mother can see that she is a kind-hearted child. General Huo likes her very much. With her help in mediating the reconciliation, my son will be safe."
"After General Huo is imprisoned, we can seize his power and his prestige will not be that high. If you show him grace and release him, he will be loyal to you wholeheartedly in the future."
"As for the regent, I will deal with him. Huo Xiao will not let him go. Gou Xun is just a fence-sitter and there is no need to be afraid of him. From now on, my son will be the upright King of Wei, sitting firmly on the throne, with all officials submitting to him and the people of the country at peace. I will be relieved."
Wei Yin had a bad feeling, "How is the Queen Mother going to deal with the Regent?"
The Queen Mother smiled and said, "I will take care of it. Don't worry about it. I was born in a humble family. The late King wanted to adopt you as his queen, and the late Queen agreed. But before we could do it, she passed away and was posthumously named Queen Dowager Xiaoyi."
"My mother will ask the Zongzheng to do it as soon as possible. From now on, you will be the biological son of the Empress Dowager Xiaoyi. The Empress Dowager Xiaoyi's maternal family is powerful, but they have been living in seclusion for many years. They will help you in the future."
Wei Yin's eyes were red, and he coughed several times in grief and anger. His face was unnaturally red. He held the Queen Mother's hand tightly and choked up, "I don't want it! I am the Queen Mother's child, I don't want to recognize anyone else as my mother!"
"Mother, what are you going to do? Don't be stupid! The Regent deserves death. He bullied my mother. Sooner or later, I will tear her into pieces!"
The Queen Mother was struck by lightning and froze in place. She felt that she might be dead, with only a shell left here.
Yin'er knew it! Yin'er must have known it a long time ago!
Wei Yin also knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he threw himself into his mother's arms and hugged her tightly.
"Mother, I know what you want to do, but you can't abandon me! The Regent deserves death, but your life cannot be used to exchange it! There must be other ways."
The Queen Mother was already in tears, and she said word by word: "After the imperial decree is issued, he will definitely come to me, and I will make him hand over the antidote."
"I have arranged for people to guard outside. If I cannot take him with me to die, I will commit suicide and ruin his reputation! The order of a queen mother will always cause a great uproar. You take the opportunity to release Huo Xiao. Huo Xiao will definitely kill the regent!"
"Yin'er, your mother is sorry for you. Please don't blame her. You are the Prince of Wei, the child of the Queen Mother Xiaoyi. You shouldn't have such a terrible mother."
Wei Yin knew that his mother had made up her mind to die. She had planned everything and paved a way for him with her own life. But how could he sit on the throne by stepping on his mother's life? And then turn around and abandon his mother and recognize someone else as his mother.
Wei Yin came out of his mother's arms, his eyes were still red, but he stood straight and stopped crying.
"Mother, you didn't intend to tell me this, did you? You coaxed me into handing over the imperial seal, and you did it anyway. When I 'recover' from my illness, will I only be able to see your corpse? Mother, you are so cruel!"
The Queen Mother was very distressed, but she sat there without moving. It was better for Yin'er to blame her, as it would not make her feel so sad.
"Mother, you are so confused! How do you know that the Regent will give you the antidote? What if the antidote he gives you is fake and you are dead? What can you do?"
"You and I are mother and son. Is General Huo a fool? He only hates the Regent for framing him and you for issuing the decree. Doesn't he hate me? You don't understand General Huo at all. He has great ambitions, which you and I cannot control."
“Don’t even mention whether the Imperial Guards and the Protectorate can capture him. Even if they do, what good will it do? There are hundreds of thousands of Huo’s troops in the north. If they all rebel, who can stop them? You don’t even know how powerful the Huo’s troops are. They really have the help of the gods!”
"Without the Huo family army, the King of Wei would have been divided up long ago. With such a magical army in hand, let alone me being a puppet, even if I have seized power, I still can't stop him!"
The more the Queen Mother listened, the more desperate she became. The solution she had thought of all night long was actually not feasible?
What way out was there for the mother and son? Could they just watch Yin'er die?
The Queen Mother couldn't help crying out loud, "But what about your illness? That's not an illness at all, it's a poison! It's rare that the Regent agreed to give you the antidote. If you miss this chance, I'm afraid there won't be another chance."
Wei Yin breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that his mother should have given up the idea of dying together with him.
He sat behind his mother and whispered, "I have been with Miss Ji for a while. She can always come up with many new things. She must be the goddess in the rumors!"
"Sister Goddess said that she didn't know what poison was in my body, so she couldn't make an antidote. As long as she knew the ingredients, she could get the antidote. Now that we have the antidote, Sister Goddess will definitely be able to replicate it and cure me."
