Chapter 8 Regret, I will beg her sooner or later
"What do you mean by 'the emperor breaks the law and is guilty of the same crime as the common people'? You are clearly seeking revenge for your personal grudge and venting your anger on Song Qingyun, Beigong You, you despicable villain!"
"I only ate two rabbits. How many rabbits have she killed by poison when testing drugs? Don't you think it's too late now that you feel heartache? One is hypocritical and the other is stupid. You two are really a perfect match!" Lin Miaoyin spat fiercely.
Beigong You resisted the urge to take any action.
After a while, perhaps because Lin Miaoyin was tired of scolding or couldn't stand the punishment, the place behind him suddenly became quiet.
Beigong You paused.
When he turned around, he saw a pair of dark and bright eyes staring at him angrily.
The boards fell down one after another, and her back was already covered in blood, but she said nothing, and there was a coldness and stubbornness in her eyes that he had never seen before.
The evening breeze lifted her skirt, like a fire in the dark night, burning in his eyes.
It’s not like he hadn’t punished Lin Miaoyin before.
But every time she either yelled or cried for mercy, and even threatened the executioner with the queen, which made him extremely annoyed.
Now that she stopped crying and making a fuss, he felt at a loss as to what to do.
It was as if he had wronged her.
Beigong You thought it was outrageous and quickly took a step back.
…
In the Qingzhu Courtyard, barely audible sobs could be heard.
Beigong You stepped into the room and saw a slender lotus-colored figure lying on a Xiangfei chair crying with swollen eyes.
Sensing him coming, the woman wiped away her tears and walked towards him gracefully.
Before he could get close, her body went limp and she fell backwards.
He was quick to pull the person into his arms, "Yun'er, are you okay?"
Song Qingyun shook her head, "It's all Yun'er's fault. Yun'er's health is not good enough. She has brought shame to the prince." As she spoke, her eyes turned red and two lines of tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes.
The beauty wept, looking so pitiful.
If he had seen Song Qingyun's tearful face in the past, he would have felt distressed long ago. But today, for some reason, that stubborn face filled with hatred kept appearing in front of his eyes.
"Your Majesty, there is something I know I shouldn't say, but for the sake of my concubine, I have to say it. Although my concubine is in poor health, it is not...to such a bad state. This afternoon, it is clear that someone deliberately wanted to embarrass my concubine."
The little maid bit her lip and said, "Since the princess can poison Ding Xiang, she can definitely..."
"Zizhu, stop talking." Song Qingyun stopped him in time, looking a little embarrassed, "Don't mention what happened in the afternoon anymore."
As she spoke, she looked at Beigong You with tears in her eyes, "Your Highness, I'm fine. I was just a little sad to learn that Xiaohong and Xiaobai were eaten by someone. Zizhu was worried and insisted on asking you for help."
Tonight is their wedding night, but he has been reluctant to come, so she thinks of a way to ask Zizhu to invite him over.
But she was also afraid that what happened this afternoon would leave a shadow in his heart and he would never be willing to get close to her again.
Now that she saw that he still treated her the same as before, she felt relieved.
"Fengming has gone to ask the imperial physician to check on your body later." Beigong You patted the woman's shoulder gently and distanced himself from her.
If he had heard these words before, he would have simply thought she was tolerant and generous.
And now, Zizhu's words clearly have a hidden meaning.
Although he also hated Lin Miaoyin, he couldn't speak without evidence.
So, was this Zizhu's intention or Yun'er's? In his impression, she was not such a person.
Sensing the distance between the man and herself, Song Qingyun forced herself to keep the smile on her face intact. She bowed softly to the man and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
What on earth happened? Why did he seem to be estranged from me?
She originally wanted to outdo Lin Miaoyin at the wedding, but Lin Miaoyin, who always wore white, suddenly put on a red dress and stole her limelight.
Even though today is her wedding with the prince, everyone says that Lin Miaoyin looks more like the bride.
And even though she was wearing a bright red wedding dress, she could not escape the label of a concubine.
She has already lost public opinion and must win the prince's heart.
"Your Highness, the execution is over. The princess asked me to bring you a message." At this time, the voice of the guard was heard from the yard.
Beigong You waved for the guard to come in, "What did she say?"
"She said...you will definitely regret it. She also said..." The guard lowered his head, "She also said that sooner or later...sooner or later you will beg her for mercy."
"I want to see how she regrets to me!" Beigong You snorted coldly.
As he spoke, he walked out of the room with his long legs.
When Song Qingyun saw this scene, her heart tightened and she subconsciously chased forward, "Your Majesty..."
As soon as she called out, she suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Empress Concubine..." Zizhu exclaimed and hurried to help her.
Beigong You was faster than her. He looked at the bloodstains winding around the corners of Song Qingyun's mouth and cried out in distress, "Yun'er!"
"My Lord, my stomach... hurts so much..."
After Song Qingyun said this, her eyes rolled back and she fainted.
Beigong You's eyebrows jumped fiercely, and he asked sternly, "What on earth is going on?"
Zizhu's legs went limp, and she knelt on the ground. "My Lord, the Concubine had an old illness last night, and she has been feeling weak and has no appetite today. She has not had a single drop of water all day except for the cup of tea given by the Princess. I know that it is a serious crime to accuse the Princess without any evidence, but who else in the mansion would attack the Concubine except her? You know, she has always been intolerant of the Concubine, and this is not the first time she has attacked the Concubine. Please save the Concubine, Your Majesty."
Beigong You looked at Song Qingyun, whose face was pale in his arms, and said anxiously, "Go and see if the imperial physician has arrived!"
Not long after, Fengming brought Doctor Wang into Qingzhu Courtyard.
"Doctor Wang, please take a look at Yun'er." Beigong You rushed over impatiently.
Wang Shouyuan hurried to the bedside, and after taking her pulse, his expression became serious, "The concubine has been poisoned! And it is the most sinister poison that can cause fertility problems."
Giving a woman a sterilizing poison shows how cruel the person was.
"Poison for the child?" Beigong You's black pupils shrank suddenly.
Wang Shouyuan nodded, "This poison will not only make women sterile, but it will also threaten their lives if the poison is not detoxified in time!"
"Can Doctor Wang come up with an antidote?"
"I will try my best. It will take about three to five days. I am afraid that the Concubine's body cannot bear it."
"Doctor Wang, just prescribe the medicine. I will find a way to handle the rest."
After Wang Shouyuan left, Beigong You's face instantly darkened, and the oppressive atmosphere made people tremble with fear.
Several guards lowered their heads, not daring to speak. Only Zizhu kowtowed to him bravely, "Please, Your Majesty, please help the concubine. The princess kept saying in front of outsiders that she wanted the concubine to have children for you, but in the end, she poisoned the concubine to kill her child behind your back. She is so cruel!"
No one knew that Song Qingyun was infertile except Beigong You.
That's why Zizhu was so sad.
"Get up and take good care of the concubine!" After giving the order, he left Qingzhu Courtyard with his guards.
So this is what the woman meant when she said he would beg her!
