Chapter 303: Suicide, An Meiren is dead
"Don't, don't come over here..."
Beigong Yi's face was pale, as if he had seen a ghost.
This scene had such a huge impact on him that he broke out in a cold sweat and a chill ran down his back.
He subconsciously wanted to run, but his feet seemed to be rooted and he couldn't move at all. He could only watch the human pig running towards him.
"Son..." Lady An was afraid that Beigong Yi would leave, so she tried her best to crawl over. However, she didn't expect Beigong Yi to stay still. She didn't have time to stop herself and bumped into him, knocking him down.
"Aji, Aji, I'm your mother, I'm your mother..." She stared at the birthmark on Beigong Yi's wrist and kept calling the child's nickname.
Beigong Yi slumped on the ground, his clothes held down by Concubine An, and he didn't get up for a long time.
After seeing the woman in front of him clearly, the fear in his heart gradually dissipated.
This person is not a female ghost, but a human pig!
Noticing that she was staring at his wrist, he slowly lowered his eyes and his gaze fell on the birthmark the size of a copper coin.
My wet nurse told me that he had this birthmark on his wrist since he was born.
As if he had thought of something, he calmed down instantly, his eyes fell on An Meiren again, and he asked, "What did you call me just now?"
"Aji, you are my Aji, oh my..."
Hearing the vague name from Lady An's mouth, Beigong Yi had already guessed something. He supported her and with trembling hands brushed away the messy hair on her forehead. Looking at her eyebrows and eyes that were similar to his own and the pair of ears that were exactly the same as his own, he instantly felt cold all over.
Could it be that... the person in front of him is his biological mother?
No.
This is not true.
How could this unidentified crazy woman, who looks like this, be his biological mother?
Besides, if he was not that woman's son, how could he pamper him? How could he pave a bright future for him?
No one knew better than him how much Emperor Ming loved and was obsessed with that woman. He loved her to the core, so how could he mistake her for his own flesh and blood?
While he was stunned, the woman in front of him was already mumbling to herself.
"You are my Aji, then Prince Ning's child is...whose child is he? I am not his mother, so I cannot give him a lung transplant..."
Lady An raised her eyes suddenly, a little anxiously, "We can't save him, he will die..."
Even though she knew that Beigong You was not her biological son, he was still a child she raised with her own hands. Now she couldn't bear to watch him die.
If possible, she would be willing to sacrifice her life to save him.
Beigong Yi listened to what she said to herself and understood everything.
It turns out that she is Concubine An, the mother of the fourth brother!
She is not dead!
Beigong Yi's eyes suddenly shrank, and a deepness that did not belong to him flashed in his clear eyes, "You are Lady An, my... mother!"
Hearing his words, Lady An was shocked.
She suddenly opened her eyes wide, and a hint of nervousness and worry surged in her dull almond-shaped eyes, "No, it's not your mother, you got the wrong person, the wrong person..."
At the same time, hot tears flowed down the corners of her eyes.
Without waiting for Beigong Yi to react, she arched her body and crawled towards the depths of Merlin with all her strength.
Thinking of Emperor Ming's disgust and neglect towards Beigong You over the years, she became more and more frightened and gritted her teeth to speed up her actions.
The emperor hated her and the child she gave birth to.
His Royal Highness Prince An was not favored to begin with. If people knew his background... Lady An didn't dare to think about it anymore.
She couldn't recognize him and couldn't let him have such a terrible mother like her.
She will hurt him!
…
Ever since Lin Miaoyin mentioned Concubine An again, the Queen sent people to search for her secretly in the harem.
After searching for a whole day, they finally found the person in the evening between Yilan Palace and the Cold Palace, but what they found was a cold corpse.
Lady An is dead.
In order not to alarm Emperor Ming and cause unnecessary trouble, the Queen secretly ordered an investigation into Concubine An's virginity, but after a whole night of investigation, it was still unclear whether Concubine An was murdered or committed suicide.
Because all the evidence proved that An Meiren committed suicide, but no one believed it.
This matter finally alarmed Emperor Ming.
When Emperor Ming learned of Lady An's death, disgust flashed in his eyes, and he waved his hand indifferently, "More than 20 years ago, she caused a commotion in the court, and 23 years later, she has caused unrest in the harem. Go tell the queen that she can do whatever she wants, but she is not allowed to bury her in the concubine's tomb."
After he had no intention of favoring Concubine An, many old stubborn people from the previous dynasty kept harping on this point, hinting in their words and deeds that he was a womanizer.
There were even a few censors who were so ignorant that they compared him to the likes of Xia Jie and Shang Zhou. This is simply outrageous.
Because of Concubine An, Wan Qing refused to see him anymore and even hid her pregnancy and childbirth from him.
If he had known earlier, he would never have allowed her to have a difficult labor.
Maybe he wouldn't leave me.
Emperor Ming looked at the gray night outside, unable to hide the sadness in his heart.
Sun Changhai took the order and left.
He knew that the fact that Emperor Ming favored Concubine An after drinking was a stain on his life. Now that Concubine An was dead, this stain had disappeared.
Lady An died silently.
She was originally someone that Emperor Ming disliked, and now she had become such a horrible state. Her death did not cause any stir in the palace.
Lin Miaoyin was not surprised by this, but she found it strange.
Now that Prince Ning is critically ill, and Concubine An is determined to save him, how could she commit suicide at this critical moment?
The Queen also felt that there was something else behind Lady An's death.
After some investigation, she found nothing, so she decided to go to Yilan Palace and the Cold Palace in person.
After all, Concubine An had served her and gave birth to Beigong You, so it was only right and proper for her, her former mistress, to send her off.
Moreover, she also wanted to know how Concubine An had been living all these years, what happened after she took Beigong You out of Yilan Palace, and how did she become like that?
As soon as she entered Yilan Palace, she saw a familiar figure.
The Queen paused, but Aunt Xu froze. She glanced to her side worriedly, "Your Majesty, what's wrong?"
"That person just now... I seem to have seen him somewhere before." The queen murmured.
Madam Xu's expression became even more rigid, and she hurriedly smiled to cover it up, "My lady, please don't scare me, I didn't see anything."
The queen shook her head, thinking she was hallucinating.
Just as she was about to take a step, Aunt Xu said again, "Madam, you have been busy all night. Why don't you go back and take a nap and come back when you wake up?"
"Now that you're here, go take a look."
At this time, it was already daybreak, but the queen was not afraid of anything.
After the coroner finished the examination, he sutured An Meiren's body and there appeared to be nothing abnormal on the surface.
After entering the hall, Jiang He, the steward of the cold palace, took a look at the corpse covered with corpse spots and sighed softly. Maybe this was a good thing for Lady An. From now on, she would be free and would no longer have to suffer in this world as a half-human, half-ghost.
He walked forward, gently pulled the white cloth over the person.
Hearing footsteps behind him, he hurriedly stood up and headed towards the cold palace.
