Chapter 630: Peace
After this catastrophe, she almost died.
But she kept smiling.
The smile is sincere and charming.
The emperor sighed, hugged her, and patted her back gently: "Take good care of yourself."
"I want to go back and raise it." Shen Chuliu said.
"Okay, I'll ask a sedan chair to take you back later." Chongzi Palace was indeed inconvenient and too far away.
This place is not as good as her palace and it's not convenient.
When people learned that Concubine Jingxian had woken up, they naturally wanted to come and see her, but the emperor did not allow it.
So in the end, only the queen came.
Shen Chuliu greeted and said hello politely.
The two exchanged a few pleasantries as usual, and then the queen left.
After the queen had left, the sedan chair arrived and took her back to Yufu Palace.
She slowly learned everything from Chi Su and Yuan Xiao.
"It's her." Shen Chuliu sighed, "Finally, she took this step."
"She deserves to die. I heard she died miserably. She deserved it!" Chi Su cursed with red eyes: "I curse her to be born a pig or dog in her next life!"
"Then should I still eat pork?" Shen Chuliu asked.
Chi Su was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "Master!"
"Alright." Shen Chuliu took a deep breath: "Your Majesty, this time, the matter was handled too quickly."
"Yes, we were afraid... The Sixth Prince looked very unhappy at that time. He refused to sleep that night and stayed by your side. He was executed the next day. The Queen Mother fell ill at night. Duke Li knelt for a whole day and night, but the Emperor only said, "Go back." Now Li Guang and Li Shou are still in the prison of the Ministry of Justice, and they are said to be exiled."
"Then Pang Xin and his entire family will be executed."
"Where are the people following Zhen Chongyi?" Shen Chuliu asked a question he knew the answer to.
"They've all been dealt with." Chi Su sighed, "The people around them are really unlucky. They've been replaced several times, and no one has a good ending."
Shen Chuliu nodded.
"I know everything. I'll take a nap."
She is very weak now, so she needs to sleep more.
I can't eat, so I'll just sleep hungry.
When it was dusk, the emperor came again.
After dealing with the memorials in his hand, he went to the Empress Dowager first. The Empress Dowager was also seriously ill this time.
However, when he met Qi Yixiu, he still said that the Li family deserved to die and asked the emperor to punish them severely.
The emperor just held her hand and said, "My mother is ill, so don't worry about it. Duke Li is my uncle, and since he was not involved, I won't do anything. Li Guang and Li Shou deserve their punishment, so I will just spare their lives."
After hearing this, Empress Dowager Li finally felt relieved.
Besides, no matter what, she couldn't just watch her family disappear.
As for Li Xiang, she hadn't tried to save her before, and she didn't want to save her anymore.
Such a careless idiot should just die.
Shen Chuliu opened her eyes and saw the emperor reading a book in the light of dusk.
She curled her lips and called, "Your Majesty."
"Awake." Qi Yixiu dropped the book and came over.
"I'm so hungry." Shen Chuliu sighed, "It hurts so much too."
She had pain throughout her abdominal cavity.
"Just bear with it, it will be fine after a few days." Qi Yixiu helped her up: "Drink some soup later, and I'll make you some boiled rice."
"Oh." Shen Chuliu sighed, what a miserable life.
"How is the Empress Dowager? I just heard that she is ill." Shen Chuliu asked.
"It's okay, don't worry." Qi Yixiu said.
"Well, I'll ask Yan'er to go and take a look tomorrow." Shen Chuliu said.
"Well. Carry you out?" Qi Yixiu asked.
Shen Chuliu nodded and was carried to the couch in the outer room.
You can't eat or drink too much. Just drink half a cup of water from a small cup.
Shen Chuliu leaned against the pillow listlessly, looking as if he had lost all hope in life.
Qi Yixiu curled his lips, thinking that this woman rarely behaved like this.
She asked someone to give her some candies, which she then digested in her mouth.
But not too much.
Shen Chuliu frowned and looked at it, thinking, forget it, just consider it as replenishing your blood sugar.
Alas, the dignified Consort Jingxian has fallen to the point where her only snack is a piece of candy...
The emperor was driven away by Shen Chuliu.
After all, Shen Chuliu couldn't eat properly, but the emperor needed to have a good meal.
"Your Majesty, please come another day. How can you attend court tomorrow if you don't eat or sleep well?" Shen Chuliu said righteously.
Qi Yixiu smiled, knowing that she didn't want to watch him eat.
He did not insist: "Then you take a rest, I will come back another day."
Shen Chuliu nodded.
Since the emperor had left, the Sixth Prince naturally did not dine here.
Shen Chuliu didn't have much strength either, so he drank a small bowl of something that looked like porridge or soup, and then drank some medicine a quarter of an hour later.
Just take a shower and go to bed.
She needs a lot of sleep now, and she herself does not have much energy.
The next day, the Sixth Prince went to Ci'an Palace.
Instead, he greeted Empress Dowager Li politely.
After seeing off the Sixth Prince, Empress Dowager Li leaned on the couch in a daze.
"Master, would you like to lie down for a while?" Nanny Hua asked worriedly.
"I'm fine. As long as Concubine Jingxian is well, that's good." said Empress Dowager Li.
After this incident, Empress Dowager Li seemed to have aged ten years.
"She's fine. You can't stay sick all the time. The Duke is fine too." said Nanny Hua.
"Yes." Empress Dowager Li nodded: "Help me go out and sit for a while."
Nanny Hua agreed and called two maids to help Empress Dowager Li get up. They left Ci'an Palace and sat in the small garden outside.
"How is Old Nine?"
The Ninth Prince was also ill.
How could he not be scared when his own biological mother was sentenced to death?
"The imperial physician said it's nothing serious, just fear and sadness. It will be fine after some rest." said Nanny Hua.
"He shouldn't have been born a prince. It would have been better if he was a princess." Empress Dowager Li said softly.
"Master, this is something that cannot be changed, why bother yourself?" Nanny Hua advised.
If the Ninth Prince was a princess, would Zhen Chongyi give up? "I think I shouldn't have asked her to enter the palace back then." Empress Dowager Li sighed, "But it's too late to say these things. Later, I thought, it doesn't matter if she is not successful, I will just live like this while she is around. Later, I just hoped that nothing would happen to her and the Ninth Prince. Finally, I just hoped that she would not drag the Ninth Prince down. But one wrong step leads to another. Now it's good. She has lost her life. The emperor has also severed his relationship with the Ninth Prince."
"Master, this...how is this possible? The Emperor still favors the Ninth Prince, otherwise he would not have asked him to change to Concubine Yi. Concubine Yi was posthumously conferred the title of Imperial Concubine." Nanny Hua was shocked.
"He is a son, and his biological mother was sentenced to death. Even if he doesn't hate her, how can he be grateful? The emperor didn't care about his feelings at all and still sentenced his mother to death. This means... he doesn't care about his feelings." Empress Dowager Li shook her head.
"This is the victory of the Sixth Prince, and the complete defeat of the Ninth Prince. You saw the look the Emperor gave the Sixth Prince that day. He would not allow the imperial doctors to delay Concubine Jingxian."
"It's for Consort Jingxian, but also for the Sixth Prince. The late emperor favored Prince Hua at that time, so favoritism that he could not see what kind of person Prince Hua was."
Empress Dowager Li's eyes became increasingly calm.
