Chapter 419 Hallucination
Jiang Nanjiao and Zhan Beiheng went to Xian'an City and took those two bastards away. The point is, they already knew about her conspiracy with the Huangfu family.
The Queen's expression twisted slightly, she couldn't accept the news.
She did it so secretly, how did they guess that the two bastards went to Xian'an City?
no!
Jiang Nanjiao and Zhan Beiheng knew what she was going to do, and they would definitely expose her when they came back. She absolutely could not let them come back.
She received the letter at this time.
It has been many days since I arrived in Beijing from Xian'an City. I don't know what the situation is there now.
Hesitate.
The queen decided to write a letter and send it to Xian'an City.
After Nanny Yao released the pigeon, the empress still did not dare to relax at all. If she could no longer rely on the Huangfu family, she could only rely on herself.
So many days have passed.
The condition of the Emperor and the Retired Emperor must be very serious. In the past few days, doctors from the Imperial Hospital have been going in and out of Deshou Palace and Yangxin Palace.
Both were ill, but the imperial physician could find nothing wrong.
But Jiang Nanjiao did discover it at that time.
It's a pity that she left the capital.
It is estimated that the health of the Emperor and the Retired Emperor has been seriously damaged by now.
Perhaps, it's time for the emperor to write an edict of succession.
The queen narrowed her eyes dangerously. She could not hesitate any longer, otherwise she would miss the best opportunity.
…
Yangxin Palace.
Emperor Jingming was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, and Qin Fu was serving him beside him. Suddenly, a young eunuch walked in quietly and stood not far away.
"Master, the Queen is here." The little eunuch lowered his voice and whispered softly, fearing to disturb the Emperor on the bed.
Qin Fu pursed his lips and waved his hand to signal him to go out.
The young eunuch bowed and left quickly.
Qin Fu walked to the bedside and said, "Your Majesty, the Queen is here. Do you want to see her?"
Emperor Jingming opened his eyes, his tense face showing no emotion, "Let her in."
"Yes, I will go and invite her." Qin Fu said and walked out.
Outside the palace.
The Queen was accompanied by Nanny Yao and two maids behind her. They were holding trays with exquisite porcelain bowls on them.
"This old servant has seen the Queen." Qin Fu stepped forward and saluted.
"Is the emperor asleep?" the queen asked with a smile.
"The emperor slept for a while after taking the medicine. He just woke up and is still lying in bed." Qin Fu said slowly.
"I guessed that the emperor had woken up, so I asked the kitchen to stew some soup and nutritious porridge to send to the emperor." The queen said with a gentle smile.
Qin Fu said, "The emperor has learned that you are here and will let you in."
Upon hearing the sound, the Queen led her people to the Yangxin Palace.
Qin Fu hurriedly followed.
Inner temple.
Emperor Jingming was lying on the bed with his eyes closed. His complexion was not very good and he looked much more haggard.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..." The Queen walked to the bedside and called softly.
She called several times.
Emperor Jingming slowly opened his eyes, his vision a little blurry. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he shouted excitedly: "Qinghe, Qinghe, are you back?"
The queen heard these two words.
There is unspeakable hatred in my heart.
Xue Qinghe was the former empress and the only woman the emperor loved. She was doted on when she was alive.
This is the woman she hates to the core!
"Your Majesty, it's you, my concubine." The emperor reached out and held the hand he extended to him. His voice was gentle, without a trace of anger, and there was even a smile on his face.
It seemed that the drug had indeed taken effect, causing him to have such severe hallucinations.
This is a good thing.
She must take advantage of these two days to quickly get the edict of succession.
As long as there is an imperial edict.
Even if Zhan Beiheng and Jiang Nanjiao returned to the capital, she had nothing to fear.
Emperor Jingming was stunned, then he held her hand very tightly, and said with a painful expression: "You are Qinghe, why don't you want to admit it?"
Queen: “…”
At this moment, her hand was completely red from being held, and she wanted to pull it out in pain, but she didn't know where he got so much strength from, and she couldn't pull it out no matter how hard she tried.
"I know you blame me. You blame me for not protecting you and not being with you. It's my fault for leaving you all alone." Emperor Jingming said with red eyes.
"Your Majesty, I...I don't blame you." The Queen echoed his words, her heart filled with jealousy and hatred.
After so many years, he is still thinking about Xue Qinghe. He is hallucinating now, and all he can see is that bitch.
Since he treated her as Xue Qinghe, she might as well admit it.
He loves her so much, and using Xue Qinghe's identity might help him write the edict of succession faster.
"You really don't blame me?"
"How could I blame you? I love you, too."
Emperor Jingming loosened his grip on her hand and smiled, "Yes, you definitely don't blame me, otherwise why would you show up?"
"For so many years, I missed you so much, but you never appeared in my dreams. Now I finally see you."
When he said the latter, his face showed satisfaction and happiness.
The queen was filled with jealousy, for it turned out that she, a living being, was no match for a dead person. He was an emperor and had no right to favor only a woman.
He is the only one in their eyes and hearts.
But he could see nothing.
She hates him.
Hate him so much.
I wish I could kill him right away and make him regret it.
But it must be before obtaining the edict of succession.
"Your Majesty, I know you haven't eaten anything in the evening, so I specially stewed some soup. Can I feed you?" The queen coaxed in a soft voice.
"Okay, Qinghe, you haven't fed me soup for a long time." Emperor Jingming agreed readily, staring at her motionlessly.
The queen smiled and said, "I will feed you."
The words fell.
She stood up and walked towards the maid, picking up the bowl of soup.
At this time, Gu Feng, dressed in white, came in with a medicine box. When he saw the queen, he bowed and said, "I am honored to see the queen."
The queen looked at him and asked, "Why is Doctor Gu here?"
Jiang Nanjiao is gone.
But she arranged for the owner of the Herb Shop to come. I heard that he was from the Shura Sect, and he was probably arranged to keep an eye on the palace on purpose.
But the emperor agreed to let him live in the palace.
"The emperor took medicine in the afternoon. I calculated that he should be awake by now, so I came to check his body." Gu Feng said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"You go out first. I'll feed His Majesty some soup." The Queen's tone was indifferent and stern.
Gu Feng said calmly: "Everything the emperor eats and drinks needs to be inspected, I hope the queen will cooperate."
The Queen said nonchalantly, "Okay, you can check it, or you will accuse me of poisoning the Emperor. I cannot afford this crime."
"Nonsense, how could Qinghe poison me? No need to check." Emperor Jingming said, his tone full of protection.
"Your Majesty, you are not feeling well now. It would be better for you to get checked out." Gu Feng still insisted, but he was puzzled in his heart that the emperor actually believed the queen.
He knew clearly that the queen wanted to harm him.
"Qinghe is the woman I love most, and I trust her. Qinghe, feed me the soup." Emperor Jingming said with a smile while looking at the empress.
"I am very happy that the emperor trusts me." A smile slowly spread across the queen's face.
