Chapter 164 The Emperor and the Queen Mother quarreled and cursed
Queen Mother Jiang was so shocked by the hurtful accusations made by her own son that her face turned pale and her vision went dark.
She opened her mouth, but felt too guilty to scold her son.
She didn't expect Shen Yuanwei to bleed profusely...
Shen Yuanwei was safe and sound. She looked pitiful if she was more seriously injured. However, Shen Yuanwei was bleeding heavily. Her injury was her own fault. She couldn't explain it clearly...
Queen Mother Jiang felt very aggrieved. She thought she was really unlucky. Others were fine after taking labor-inducing drugs, but why did she get into trouble?
She also blamed Shen Yuanwei for not living up to her expectations. Why did Shen Yuanwei have to bleed so much?
Queen Mother Jiang bit the tip of her tongue.
Shen Yuanwei has been in trouble, so she can't pretend anymore, because no matter how miserable she pretends, she can't be as miserable as Shen Yuanwei who is bleeding heavily, and her son will never pity her.
She could only look at her son with a unhappy face and play the family card with tears in her eyes.
"Jun Lin, could you please stop talking to my mother like that?"
"You are my biological son. Have you forgotten how I treated you over the years? When have I ever done anything to hurt you? I will not harm you, and I will not harm your children either. Really, I hope more than anyone else that they can be born safely..."
Xie Junlin looked at her indifferently.
"Then explain to me, what is the abortion pill?"
Queen Mother Jiang pursed her lips, lowered her head and did not dare to look Xie Junlin in the eye.
"That's not an abortion pill, it's a labor-inducing pill. I saw other people were fine after taking labor-inducing pills, so I thought Shen Yuanwei would be fine too. I really didn't expect her to bleed profusely..."
Xie Junlin hummed.
He said, "Then please explain to me, Queen Mother, why did you trick her into drinking the labor-inducing drug?"
Queen Mother Jiang is speechless.
Xie Junlin said, "She is due to give birth in half a month. Why can't you wait even half a month? Why do you have to hurt my child to make her give birth early?"
He stared into Queen Mother Jiang's eyes and asked, "What good will it do you if she gives birth to a child early?"
Queen Mother Jiang's eyes flickered slightly.
She still didn't dare to say that she did all this for her youngest son.
If I tell him, my eldest son will be even angrier.
She could only stammer to explain, "I heard that tomorrow is a good day and the baby born tomorrow will have a very good fate, so I wanted to give Shen Yuanwei some labor-inducing medicine tonight..."
Xie Junlin smiled.
His smile was as cold as ice and snow on the mountains.
"Does your mother think I'm a fool? I'm the Son of Heaven. My children will have the same good fortune no matter when they are born. This excuse is not valid."
Queen Mother Jiang clutched the corner of the quilt and tried to hold on.
"But I really just want to do something to add icing on the cake for my child's fate. Why don't you believe me?"
She threw the question back to Xie Junlin.
"If you don't believe me, then what other reasons do I have?"
"You are my biological son, and those two children are my biological grandchildren. I am not crazy, so why would I hurt my own grandchildren?"
She sighed and tried to persuade Xie Junlin.
"Jun Lin, this is really a misunderstanding. I timed Shen Yuanwei's labor so that your child would have a good fate. My original intention was for the good of the child. You can't doubt my motives just because Shen Yuanwei is in serious trouble now. If my motives were really impure, why would I use abortion pills? Wouldn't it be faster to just give her poison?"
Xie Junlin stared at Queen Mother Jiang mockingly.
He stroked the jade ring on his finger, his cold eyes filled with disappointment and chilling heart.
"I gave you a chance to confess, but you insisted on treating me like a fool."
"Do you think I can't guess if you don't tell me?"
He said slowly.
"You have done everything in your life either for yourself or for your two children. But you obviously couldn't have hurt my children for me, so your purpose must be for your little son—"
"You are here to thank God."
Queen Mother Jiang suddenly became panicked.
Xie Junlin continued speaking.
"I thought about it, and you probably did this because of something you mentioned to me a few months ago."
"You discovered that your autistic and phobic little son had understood the love between men and women and actually fell in love with Shen Yuanwei. You were overjoyed. At that time, you ignored the fact that Shen Yuanwei was still my concubine and absurdly proposed to me that Shen Yuanwei marry Ayou."
"Although I refused, you obviously didn't take it seriously. You are still plotting to find a wife for your youngest son."
"You know very well that the woman your youngest son likes is not only my concubine, she is also Xiao Lingzhao's wife. You can use the mother-son relationship to pressure me, but you can't make Xiao Lingzhao compromise. As long as Xiao Lingzhao comes back, you can't steal his wife from under the nose of this great general."
"So, you planned to send Shen Yuanwei away and hide her before Xiao Lingzhao came back."
"So when you heard the news that Xiao Lingzhao was about to return to Beijing, you got anxious. You knew that Shen Yuanwei would have to wait half a month for natural childbirth, and Xiao Lingzhao would have returned to Beijing in half a month. How could you steal her away?"
"You were so anxious that you lost your mind. You took a risk and gave Shen Yuanwei a labor-inducing drug. You wanted her to give birth immediately, and then you stole her away and hid her after she gave birth—"
"Is that so?"
Queen Mother Jiang's face turned pale.
Xie Junlin had already guessed it, and it was useless for her to deny or explain herself.
Seeing that Queen Mother Jiang did not deny it, Xie Junlin's eyes became solemn.
He wanted to control his anger, but he couldn't. He raised his foot and kicked over the table next to him!
Things on the table fell to the ground, and the crackling noise scared Queen Mother Jiang so much that she shrank back into the bed. She looked at the furious Xie Junlin with fear on her face.
Xie Junlin pointed at her, his eyes red.
"You are such a good mother to me!"
"In order to hide Shen Yuanwei and marry her to your youngest son, you didn't care about my feelings at all, and didn't care whether my two children would be killed!"
"You knew that I couldn't have children after being married for 18 years. You knew that the two children in Shen Yuanwei's belly were my only flesh and blood. You knew how much I cared about them. They were my lifeblood, but you still extended your poisonous claws to them!"
"You would rather use the lives of my two children to buy a wife for your youngest son!"
"Why, only your youngest son deserves to be a human being, but me and my two children don't, huh? My two children and I should die so that your youngest son can be happy, right?"
“…”
Queen Mother Jiang looked at the furious Xie Junlin and tears fell down her face.
She felt really wronged to be scolded like this.
She didn't want to lose her eldest son, and she didn't want her son to be separated from her and resent her for the rest of his life.
She shook her head desperately to explain.
"No, Junlin, listen to me, I don't want to harm your two children, really!"
"Since ancient times, there have been many women in the harem who have taken drugs to accelerate labor. Many women who have become pregnant one after another would take the risk of taking drugs to accelerate labor in order to make their children grow up, rushing to have their children born a few days earlier..."
"All of these people took the medicine and their mothers and children were safe, so I thought the medicine would not cause any harm. Who knew Shen Yuanwei would bleed profusely?"
Xie Junlin snorted.
"So this matter is not your fault, but Shen Yuanwei and my two children are also to blame for being so disappointing, is that what you mean? Blame my two children for being useless, unable to even tolerate a little abortion medicine, right?"
