After hearing this, the Queen lowered her eyes slightly and pursed her lips, feeling a little unnatural. As if she was aware of her own stiffness, she brushed her hair with her hand.
Emperor Mingxi's gaze was fixed on her hands, with a hint of mockery in his eyes.
The exquisite and expensive armor inlaid with gems and gilded pearls matches her gorgeous hair accessories, highlighting her status as a queen at all times.
The lustrous and huge oriental pearls, the trembling branches of ruby butterflies, and the swaying tassels hanging from the phoenix hairpin.
Her head was piled with priceless things.
Many of them were requested by the little fat boy from the empress dowager and the emperor.
Emperor Mingxi waved his hand, and an attendant presented the paper.
The letter was filled with heart-wrenching words. The emperor's gaze lingered on it for only a moment before he had it taken away.
He couldn't bear to see, couldn't bear to recall how his smart and perceptive child struggled and was anxious when he saw these words, and how he couldn't sleep all night.
At this time, Emperor Mingxi sent these words to the empress to read.
The queen, dressed in her finery, trembled slightly with both hands, then closed her eyes. When she opened them again, her expression was cold and indifferent: "Your Majesty, the concubines in the palace are so vicious that they actually attacked the child. Your Majesty will punish them severely."
Emperor Mingxi sighed slightly.
She didn't even feel any sympathy. Is this the attitude a mother should have?
Instead, he was severely punished.
He ordered the death of Concubine Wen and abolished the three palaces and six courtyards, leaving only the empress in the harem.
No one could pose a threat to her anymore.
Emperor Mingxi felt sorry for his children.
Did that innocent and adorable child really not notice the ever-changing nature of his mother?
I still know it, but I choose to endure it silently.
Even a rabbit will bite when it is angry. When these concubines heard that the queen was going to punish them severely, they panicked instantly.
The queen is kind, how could she turn against you so cruelly?
Some timid concubines burst into tears immediately, while others looked at the queen anxiously.
Emperor Mingxi saw all of this. He stood with his hands behind his back and said, "Then grant him death."
The Queen breathed a sigh of relief as if she had taken a reassurance pill. "Your Majesty is wise and wise. Yu'er will surely be happy to know what Your Majesty has done."
The words "appointment to death" made the concubines dizzy.
One of them looked at the Queen in horror, but the Queen didn't even look at her. A look of determination flashed in her eyes as she shouted, "I am also serving—"
Wu Zhonghe immediately ordered his men to cover her mouth and drag her out.
Some words cannot be spread.
Especially since she was the queen mother, she plotted to harm the prince.
Wu Zhonghe lowered her head, feeling puzzled. She was already the queen, so what could she be dissatisfied with?
No matter how dissatisfied you are, as a mother, how can you harm your only child?
People!
"I just said it casually. My son is young, and I should do good deeds for him." Emperor Mingxi reached out and stroked the golden dragon on the dragon throne.
He didn't care at all about the concubines who were extremely happy or sad, or the queen who was trying to remain calm.
The concubines are nothing but minions. Today he is just testing them.
"Your Majesty is right." The Queen's hand in her sleeve was tightly grasping the handkerchief with astonishing strength.
Emperor Mingxi ignored her and just raised his hand slightly, and everyone retreated and even closed the palace door.
A claustrophobic space, dim light, and a beating heart.
The Queen's body was tense, and the tension made her feel uneasy. "Your Majesty, what is this..."
"Kneel down."
The cold and unchanging tone made the queen's knees slam down on the ground.
Tears fell from her beautiful face, and the queen's delicate makeup was slightly mottled. "Your Majesty, please calm down. I don't know what I have done wrong."
The queen felt as if her heart was in the ice and snow, and she was afraid.
A long-lost fear.
Since she became pregnant, Emperor Mingxi has granted her every request.
She gave birth to a child and rose to fame.
No one dared to look at her with such contempt and superiority again.
"Empress, the decorations of Huaqing Palace are becoming more and more gorgeous, and there are fewer and fewer traces of Yu'er's life. I remember that you opened up a corner for Yu'er, but when I came back this time, it was gone."
The unparalleled handsome emperor slowly turned around, his eyes seemed to fall on her hair, or the wall.
Before he finished speaking, the queen felt extremely frightened and uneasy.
Or maybe he feels guilty.
The Queen's breathing seemed to stop, and her lips trembled unconsciously. "Your Majesty, Yu'er is with you every day. I specially dismantled it and sent it to Zichen Palace."
Her hands were clasped together, and her fingertips were white.
"In my life, all those who have lied to me in person are dead. Queen, do you want to go and accompany them?" Listening to the words of the emperor and the unquestionable tone, the queen choked up.
"Your Majesty wants me to die, and I have no complaints. But as for Yu'er..." Before she could finish her words, a stack of confessions was thrown in her face.
The queen felt a stinging sensation on her face and wanted to reach out and touch it.
But when the golden armor touched his face, it felt only cold.
"Shut up, you are not worthy to mention him." The emperor was extremely angry. Even at this moment, she still wanted to step on Yu'er.
That's her flesh and blood, why doesn't it hurt?
The empress seemed to be hurt and actually laughed. After laughing, she knelt on the ground and looked up at Emperor Mingxi. "That is my child. Why am I not worthy of mentioning him?"
"During the ten months of pregnancy, the time I spent with Yu'er was very few."
The emperor said calmly, "So what?"
"Don't pretend in front of me. I'm tired of it." The queen's methods were really not enough in front of this brilliant emperor.
Because of the child, he has given enough honor and respect.
There is no more.
No matter what the queen did or how much she cried, she could not gain any sympathy from him.
"Yu'er said that you have changed a lot." Seeing that the queen did not speak, Emperor Mingxi said slowly.
A crack appeared on the queen's delicate face, and panic flashed in her eyes.
It seems that such a sentence is even more frightening than Emperor Mingxi.
After a long moment, the Queen said in a hoarse voice, "I cannot compare to Your Majesty's omniscience. I did this only for Yu'er. Now that Your Majesty has recovered from his illness, who knows if he will want to have more children?"
As the master of the harem, how could the queen not know the movements of her concubines?
She was indeed happy when the child returned to the palace, but she was also worried.
If Her Majesty recovers from her illness, will her child still be the only one?
Even if this child has a deep relationship with His Majesty, it cannot overcome the passage of time.
In addition, she indulged in this matter for some unclear reasons, and she also fueled those remarks.
The secret guards are everywhere, but there are always loopholes. What's more, her child is more sensitive than an ordinary person.
As the queen watched the child become increasingly silent, she knew that Emperor Mingxi would not sit idly by.
Yuer can eliminate such a large number of potential threats in just a few days, so why not do it?
