Chapter 305: Obsession, send her off for the last time
The queen got up after sleeping for a short while.
After a simple breakfast, he went to the side hall to see the little princess.
Beigong Youan has just finished his milk and is now sleeping soundly. He purses his little mouth and blows bubbles from time to time. He is so adorable.
The queen looked at the little guy's sleeping face and her eyes softened.
The oppression and severity that had accumulated between his brows over the years were gradually replaced by kindness.
From Nanny Xu's perspective, she could just see the queen's profile, hidden by her black hair, glowing softly in the sun.
She was suddenly shocked.
The queen can actually be so gentle and beautiful.
Perhaps because she had suffered too much and gone through too much trouble, the empress always frowned and pursed her lips. There was sternness between her eyebrows, and even when she smiled, there was a sense of majesty without anger. Her face was bright and generous, but it always revealed a hint of bitterness.
But deep in her memory, the queen was not like that.
A long time ago, the empress had a gentle look, loved to laugh, and her every move was breathtakingly beautiful.
Looking at that gentle profile, she vaguely saw some of her past shadows.
But it made her feel a little strange.
Realizing this, Aunt Xu felt even more distressed.
The Queen could have had a happy life, but it was the cold-hearted Chen family and the cannibalistic harem that ruined her.
When she gave birth to a stillborn baby and could no longer have children, the Chen family not only did not offer any comfort, but instead rushed the 13-year-old Chen Wanrong into the palace. It was at this time that the Empress realized that she was just a pawn of the Chen family, and that all the love and indulgence she had received in the past were fake.
It was obvious that they were the ones who caused the tragedy of the Queen, but no one was willing to be responsible for her miserable life. That period was the darkest time in the Queen's life. She blamed herself for a long time until later when she undoubtedly saw His Royal Highness Prince Ning in Yilan Palace.
Even though she was abandoned by the Emperor and the Chen family, she still felt compassion when she saw the helpless Prince Ning, and was willing to take him out of Yilan Palace even if it angered the Emperor. She was naturally very happy. With Prince Ning, Ganquan Palace would not be so deserted, which would be beneficial to the Empress's condition.
But I didn't expect that the queen would have a new obsession in her heart.
She wanted to use Prince Ning to ascend to a high position and prove to the Chen family that she was not someone they could abandon just because they wanted to.
Fortunately, His Royal Highness Prince Ning worked hard. Although he was taken out of the cold palace at the age of ten and had a poor foundation, he was very smart and finished the lessons that other princes had to finish in ten years in just three years. I thought there would be light at the end of the tunnel, but the emperor poured a basin of cold water on me. He hated Concubine An and the children she gave birth to.
The queen knew at that time that the Ning Wang would not be able to turn over just by being smart. So she sent the Ning Wang to Wudang Mountain to learn martial arts. The emperor could refuse the daughter of Lady An, but he could not refuse a god of war. The Ning Wang understood the queen's painstaking efforts and did not disappoint her. The queen's wish finally had hope, and even she thought that the queen had finally gotten her wish. Who knew that the Ning Wang would suffer from such an incurable disease? It was really unfair.
Looking at the baby in the cradle, she recalled some past events. When the queen was selecting a princess for Prince Ning, she also spent a lot of effort. As early as when she took Prince Ning out of the cold palace, she began to plan, and finally chose Chen Zhimo, the legitimate daughter of the Chen family, so she often invited her into the palace.
First, Miss Zhimo was gentle and virtuous, and was a capable and good wife. Second, the queen was selfish. She still had some hope for the Chen family. However, the Chen family and Miss Zhimo were not optimistic about Prince Ning and the queen, and chose Prince Shu instead. Facts have proved that they were not good at vision.
Later, Miss Lin came to the Empress and begged her to marry the King of Ning. The Empress was surprised and conflicted, but finally agreed. For Miss Lin and for herself, she had to fight for that position. Especially in recent years, the Empress has even completely fallen into obsession.
It was not until Prince Ning fell ill that she seemed to wake up from her dream.
"What are you thinking about? You're so absent-minded. I called you several times but you didn't respond."
Hearing the Queen's voice, Nanny Xu woke up with a start and her thoughts were suddenly pulled out of her memories.
She followed the Queen's gaze and cast her eyes on the little one in the cradle. "Look, your Majesty, the little princess is so beautiful. She has inherited the best qualities of the prince and the princess. She will definitely be a beauty in the future."
"Yes, she is a beauty." The queen said with a smile.
When he was just born, she thought the little guy looked more like Lin Miaoyin, but now after raising him for a few days, he looks more like Prince Ning.
The little girl only picks the good ones, and she will look the same in the future.
Seeing the queen's gentle smile, Aunt Xu couldn't help but smile too.
It seems that the queen has let go of her obsession.
That's fine.
As the master and servant were watching, Beigong Youan woke up from his sleep.
After waking up, the little girl didn't cry or make a fuss, but nibbled her hands quietly. After being picked up by the queen, she looked at the queen's face and giggled.
"Our An An loves grandma very much." The queen was in a very good mood.
She knew what Aunt Xu was thinking.
She did have some obsessions before, but now, looking at the little guy in her arms, she suddenly felt that those were meaningless.
She didn't want to prove it to the Chen family because she didn't care about the Chen family at all now.
As for Jiang He...she was thinking about the figure tonight.
After so many years, the hatred she had for Jiang He was gone. She even wanted to see him, at least to hear that he was doing well.
After the wet nurse took Beigong Youxuan away to feed her, the queen seemed to remember something and asked, "How has Prince Ning been these past two days?"
"Still the same as always, unconscious."
The smile on the queen's face faded a little. "I hope Miaoyin can save him after she is out of confinement. Even if she can't practice martial arts, it doesn't matter. It's always good to be alive."
Just as she finished sighing, the palace maid came hurriedly to report, "My queen, Prince Ning has woken up!"
Lin Miaoyin received the news that Beigong You had woken up earlier than the Queen, and she wrapped herself in clothes and went to the side hall.
Fearing that his condition would worsen, she wanted to hide the news of Lady An's death. However, as soon as he woke up, he learned about it from Feng Ming. When she rushed to him, he was shrouded in sorrow.
Feng Ming came to apologize with a worried look on his face.
Beigong You looked sad, "I asked me, don't blame him."
He almost fainted when he heard the bad news.
Lin Miaoyin told Feng Ming to go down, walked forward slowly, took out a handkerchief from her sleeve and handed it over, "Cry if you want to."
Beigong You could not hide his grief, his eyes were red, and he tried hard to hold back the tears.
"I haven't been able to attend recently because of the birth. I'm sorry."
"I don't blame you."
After Beigong You calmed down a little, Lin Miaoyin told him the matching results from the medical system.
Beigong You couldn't believe it. "How is this possible? I have lived with my mother in Yilan Palace since I was born. How could I not be her biological child?"
Lin Miaoyin also wanted to comfort him, but reality was so cruel.
Even though it was hard for him to accept it, he and An Meiren had no blood relationship.
When the queen arrived and saw this scene, she left silently again.
Beigong You calmed down after a long time, "Where is my mother's body? I want to see her off for the last time."
Even though An Meiren was not his biological mother, she had raised him for so many years.
In his eyes, Lady An is his mother.
