Chapter 73 Lan Shu is possessed by the devil
After seeing the two people's appearance clearly, not only the queen but also the emperor clenched his fists in shock.
The woman in black is his concubine.
She is really back!
The person with a broken leg who was being carried by her was his wet nurse, Nanny Song.
Many years ago, Nanny Song fell off a cliff and died on her way to the temple to burn incense.
How come you are here?
The Queen blurted out his doubts, "Madam Song? Why are you..."
Not dead?
When Prime Minister Xie saw the Queen's reaction, there was disappointment in his eyes.
Comfort can indeed make people stupid.
After the Queen finished asking, she reacted and put on her queenly airs, glancing at Lan Shu, "It's been many years since we last met, and my sister has become even more unruly. She doesn't show courtesy to His Majesty and me, and even dares to call me by my name."
Lan Shu didn't even look at her, and just said to Nanny Song, "Go ahead."
She was originally going to enter the palace with Prince Rong, but on the way a girl passed on the news that Liu He secretly kept an old nanny who knew the truth about the child swap.
The old nanny was kept in the backyard of the Wu Mansion, so she followed Wei Qingyan to the Wu Mansion.
Prince Rong's guards had already been waiting there. As soon as she arrived, Prince Rong's men led her and the old nanny into the palace.
Nanny Song did not answer the Queen's words. Instead, she bowed to the Emperor with tears in her eyes and said, "I am so grateful that I can see Your Majesty once more. I will die without regrets."
"Madam Song, what on earth is going on?" The emperor shifted his gaze from Lan Shu to Madam Song with difficulty.
Nanny Song raised her head, bowed again, and prostrated herself on the ground, crying, "I am ashamed of your Majesty's trust.
At that time, Your Majesty took pity on Concubine Shu who came into the Eastern Palace alone. When Concubine Shu was pregnant, you transferred this old slave to serve her, showing your trust in me.
But this old slave colluded with outsiders to harm Concubine Shu during her childbirth and even switched her baby. This old slave deserves death."
"What?" The emperor stood up in shock. "The child, the child was really switched?"
He looked at Lan Shu again.
Lan Shu half-closed her eyes and never looked at the emperor.
That year, she woke up from a difficult labor and heard that she had given birth to a pair of monsters.
She didn't believe it. She was a human being, a healthy person. How could she give birth to a monster? She asked to see the two children.
But the prince at that time, now the emperor, her husband told her that the child really did not look like a human. It was really ominous that the royal family gave birth to such a fetus, so it was cremated.
She didn't believe it. She was a mother. Since the first fetal movement, her and her child's hearts seemed to be connected. When she talked to them, they would respond by kicking her belly with their little hands and feet.
Occasionally she could see a large bulge in the belly, and she didn't know whether they were pushing her with their little butts or their little heads.
Her heart melted at the sight, and she acted coquettishly with them, "My dear children, my belly is about to burst. Please spare me. When you come out, I will take you to roll around on the grass and run wild in the mountains and forests."
They actually quieted down.
How could such a child not be a human being?
She wanted to find the people who were present at the time and ask them for clarification, but her husband thought that her giving birth to a monster was a scandal and silenced everyone who knew about it.
Except for Nanny Song.
Nanny Song insisted that the child was a monster, and he believed her.
He had clearly seen her interacting with the children, he had talked to them, and he had played with them through her belly.
But for the sake of his reputation, he believed his wet nurse, but not her or their child.
Nanny Song replied, "Yes, Concubine Shu's pregnancy was very good, and she was in good health, so she could have given birth to twins smoothly. It was the midwife who used massage techniques to turn the fetus, which was originally head-down, so that it was feet-down.
A pair of babies were squeezed in the mother's belly, upside down. It was a difficult birth, so the midwife reached in and pulled the babies out..."
Nanny Song had been in the harem for many years and boasted of having seen many tragic events, but she couldn't help but shudder when she thought of the situation at that time. She continued, "I thought the midwife did this to hurt Concubine Shu's body, but she didn't expect...
Unexpectedly, they pulled out half of the baby and pushed it back into Concubine Shu's belly. They pulled and pushed again, and Concubine Shu was in excruciating pain.
Perhaps she noticed something was wrong with the midwife, so she tried to get up. It was the old slave..."
Nanny Song's face was covered with tears, and she closed her eyes. "It was the old servant who told her that giving birth is like walking through the gates of hell for women, and this is normal. And since she has twins, it is more likely to be a difficult birth. Just bear it a little longer, it will be fine.
Your Majesty, I know that I am not a good person, but I am also a woman and have given birth. How dare I do such a cruel thing?
But I have to do it, because I am also a mother. My daughter has been taken advantage of. If I don’t do this, my only daughter will die.”
Lan Shu shuddered as she listened to Nanny Song's story. The pain was unforgettable, but it was not even one ten-thousandth of the pain of losing her children and loved ones.
She suddenly felt very cold, had a severe headache, and her body also ached severely. A huge grief came over her heart. She clenched her fists, her eyes were red, her whole body was filled with anger, and her hand reached to her lower back.
Wei Qingyan had been keeping an eye on her. Seeing her like this, his pupils shrank slightly and he felt something was wrong.
Without caring about exposing herself, she hurriedly pulled the hairpin on her head, letting her long black hair hang down. She quickly ran into the hall, hugged the almost crazy Lan Shu, and held her hand.
There is a thousand-thread blade wrapped around A-gu's waist. When the thousand threads come out, blood will be drawn. Once A-gu is possessed by the devil, she will definitely massacre the Council Hall in blood. Not only will innocent people be hurt, but A-gu alone will also be unable to fight against four people.
"Auntie, Auntie..." she called out again and again, "Auntie, I'm here, and your child is here too..."
Auntie hadn't been sick for more than two years. I didn't expect that Nanny Song's words would have such a big impact on her.
This sudden change made everyone in the hall change their expressions.
The emperor first saw a man dressed as a man running in and holding Lan Shu with a furious look in his eyes. Then he noticed the man had waist-length hair. When he heard her gently coaxing Lan Shu, he realized it was a woman.
She looked at Shi Yu unhappily. The woman was wearing the clothes of a guard in Prince Rong's mansion. Prince Rong was so bold that he dared to let someone disguise themselves and enter the palace.
Shi Yu didn't care about the emperor's thoughts and stared at Lan Shu. He felt the strong murderous intent emanating from Lan Shu. He also saw that Lan Shu looked like a master who had gone crazy while practicing martial arts.
A person who is possessed by a demon will lose his mind. He was worried that Wei Qingyan would be hurt by Lan Shu, so he stood ready to stop Lan Shu from hurting Wei Qingyan in time.
The queen was frightened by Lan Shu's appearance and took a step back. She had seen her go crazy in the East Palace before. She was an ungrateful woman from the martial arts world who even beat the emperor when she went crazy.
Soon, he felt a little relieved that she was still as crazy as before. The emperor got tired of her because of her madness, and he would get tired of her now.
But under Wei Qingyan's comfort, Lan Shu gradually calmed down, and the bloodshot in her eyes gradually faded.
Lan Shu collected herself, pulled Wei Qingyan along, and bowed to the emperor. "Your Majesty, please forgive me. My child was worried about me and followed me into the palace. He only came into the Council Hall when he saw that I seemed to be ill. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
"Uncle Rong insisted on bringing a madwoman into the palace. What exactly is his intention? Do you care about my father's safety?"
The Crown Prince took the initiative to attack, and then looked at Lan Shu and Wei Qingyan, "One of you disturbed the hall of the Ministry of Justice, and the other trespassed into the Council Hall. If you really want to change your order, come here..."
"Your Majesty has not yet spoken. Is the Crown Prince going to overstep his authority?" Shi Yu said lightly, interrupting the Crown Prince.
Lan Shu sneered, "Prince, you still want to punish us. Have you ever thought about why I went crazy?"
