Chapter 205 Make You Smile
The Queen sneered, "What do you know!"
"I know the Emperor has never loved you. I also know that you have been in the palace for decades and the Emperor has never loved you. Has he ever picked flowers for you? Has he ever drawn your eyebrows?
Did he go to great lengths to make you smile? He didn't, because if you don't even love yourself, how could he love you?
The queen was trying to say something.
But as soon as he opened his mouth, he remembered that on Concubine Yi's birthday that year, the emperor personally buried a jar of Heju wine for Concubine Yi in the yard, saying that when they were a hundred years old, they would drink it together.
I also remember that when Concubine Yi gave birth that day, the emperor was extremely anxious.
She also understood that the emperor wanted to get rid of her because her trick of replacing the prince with a cat was seen through when Concubine Yi had a difficult childbirth.
The emperor said nothing. He didn't even need to confirm with her. He just casually decided her fate.
Lin Ruyu looked at the queen's stunned expression and laughed, "It's too late to understand now. Is it a prince in your belly?"
The queen looked alert when she heard this.
Lin Ruyu smiled and said, "Give me this child. I will raise him for you and make him the new emperor. This is my promise to you. How about it?"
The queen was horrified.
Lin Ruyu smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will treat him like my own son."
Lin Ruyu took her hands out of the basin, wiped them with a fine cloth, and then turned to look at Yun Zhao who was standing at the door.
She said those words just now to the Queen and also to Yun Zhao.
She and Yun Zhao were both people who came from the bottom of society. So, unlike these wealthy people, they had to risk their lives to survive. Naturally, they were the strongest opponents!
The queen raised her eyes and saw Yun Zhao at the door.
Yun Zhao walked in and put down the medicine in his hand. "There have been a lot of mosquitoes in the palace recently. The Imperial Hospital prescribed this medicine."
Yun Zhao walked a long way.
The Queen caught up from behind and asked, "Did you hear what Lin Ruyu said just now?"
"She wants to use my child to get to the top!"
When Yun Zhao heard this, his eyes paused, and then he slowly took a step forward.
The Queen stared at Yun Zhao's profile. "Yun Zhao, I only trust you. The child in my belly is a prince. You know, if you raise him, he will be your support in the future. Don't you want that?"
"I'm doing this for your own good. I appreciate that you're a kind person. I've left you a way out. Aren't you grateful to me?" The queen stared at Yun Zhao.
Yun Zhao said calmly, "You should give this good thing to Lin Ruyu."
The Queen frowned upon hearing this and said, "She has evil intentions. I don't want her to raise my child."
Yun Zhao sneered when he heard this.
I don’t know. Maybe after hearing this, you might actually think how important the word “kindness” is to the queen.
"What do you mean?" The queen's tone turned cold.
"Don't you understand what I mean? Do you think I'm a fool?" Yun Zhao looked at the queen.
The Queen's eyes were filled with fear, and she took a step back slightly. "I... don't understand."
"Really? Then do I need to clarify this with you?" Yun Zhao said, "Whose is Lin Ruyu? She was yours from the beginning. You were afraid that it would be difficult to control Xie Jingmo after he got married, so you arranged for Lin Ruyu in advance.
It's a pity that the Queen Mother didn't allow it, and the two were forced to separate for seven years. During those seven years, you never gave up. On the surface, Chen Tingting was let go by the Queen Mother.
But behind the scenes, you encouraged it a lot. Those bowls of contraceptive soup that Mammy prepared were your masterpiece, right?
The reason why you feel comfortable giving the child to me is not because you think I am reliable or a good person, but because you know from the bottom of your heart that I will never be able to have children of my own in this life.
But Lin Ruyu is different. She is still young and ambitious. She would like to have her own children. Between the two of you, you don't want your child to be just a stepping stone.
So you chased out to find me, so you chose me among all people. You liked me, and you also liked the Regent behind me, Xie Jingmo, and even the Imperial Hospital, and my medical skills, right?
For you, as long as your child is attached to me, the future will be safe. With a mother who knows medicine, it won't be a problem for him to grow up safely.
If there is any other possibility, it must be that your ancestors have accumulated good karma. I was too lazy to say it before, but I was considerate of the mother planning for the future of her children. Now you think I'm a fool?
What? You still want to use this child to sow discord between me and Lin Ruyu, and then compare and see which one is more suitable and has more ruthless means?
But I miscalculated. I never intended to raise you from the beginning."
She promised Mu Chengyan that she would return to Liziguai in three years.
This time, she couldn't break her promise.
After Yun Zhao finished speaking, he was about to leave, but he didn't expect to see Mu Chengyan when he looked up.
Mu Chengyan curled his smile and said to her, "Let's go, the Imperial Hospital wants to see you."
Yun Zhao nodded and followed.
Inside the city wall, there are red bricks and green tiles.
Yun Zhao turned to look at Mu Chengyan for the fifth time, "What are you laughing at?"
Mu Chengyan walked leisurely, as if he was taking a stroll.
Like every night in Liziguai.
Yun Zhao couldn't help but relax.
"Laughing at you, not stupid."
Yun Zhao also laughed, "It's not hard to guess people's minds. They keep coming back and forth with the same things..."
Everyone has desires in life.
Some people do it for power.
Some people do it for money.
…
You know what that person wants, and all her ideas will have a basis.
There's almost no guessing involved.
Only the city wall extends.
Yun Zhao couldn't see clearly what he wanted from her.
He was too simple and too pure. As for her, every time she faced Mu Chengyan, she felt very complicated.
Mu Chengyan lowered his eyes and glanced at Yun Zhao's fair little face.
The women in the palace all wore heavy makeup, but Yun Zhao was the only one who always had a cold and plain face. She was proud and aloof, and she wore plain clothes. She was bright and could not be ignored when she walked among the women.
"I'll see you wearing women's clothes sometime."
Yun Zhao looked at him, "Huh? This is women's clothing."
Mu Chengyan: "You... the maids around you are all dressed better than you." There is no decoration on the head and no rouge on the face. "Your beautiful face is wasted."
The maid laughed behind her.
Mu Chengyan turned around and asked, "Your master is like this, and you don't pay attention. At least put a few more clothes in order. If someone doesn't know, they would think your master came to this imperial city to pick up rags."
The maidservant previously worked for another nobleman and accidentally contracted leprosy. After being cured by Yun Zhao, she has been loyally following him.
Hearing Mu Chengyan's words, the maid laughed softly, but tactfully took a few steps back to give the two space to talk.
Seeing this, Mu Chengyan said to Yun Zhao, "The people around you are quite smart."
Yun Zhao was about to speak.
The maid suddenly smiled and said, "If my mistress dresses up, I'm afraid the palace will lose its color. Some people will be worried."
Mu Chengyan was not even stunned. He nodded and said to the maid, "Then please help me keep an eye on your master. Please don't dress too pretty."
The maid laughed.
Yun Zhao was helpless, "You met both sides, but now you are on one side."
Mu Chengyan laughed heartily, and his voice could be heard from far away.
No one noticed that not far behind the three people, there was a man standing with a sullen face for a long time.
