Chapter 165 The Queen Mother is Sick
An Jiu's hands trembled, not understanding why the emperor suddenly asked this?
"I don't have any."
The emperor frowned slightly.
【I don’t believe it.】
[Why is my mouth so red without applying any makeup? 】
An Jiu "..."
Is it possible that my sister is naturally beautiful? Your Majesty?
For the sake of the box of pearls, An Jiu now thinks that the emperor with his thick eyebrows and big eyes is very handsome and pleasing to the eye.
Occasionally, she gets a little bit angry, but she's also playful and cute.
The emperor pursed his lips and said nothing more.
It was An Jiu who told him what the tyrant said last night.
"Maybe he really wasn't the one who killed the person." An Jiu said.
The emperor frowned slightly and called Lin San, but Lin San was resting during the day, so it was Lin Qi who came.
"Has the body of Xiaohua been dealt with?"
Lin Qi nodded: "I will handle it according to your majesty's instructions."
The emperor asked, "Have you checked how she died?"
Lin Qi had a blank expression on his face, like a robot: "Your Majesty, someone broke his neck."
The emperor waved his hand, signaling Lin Qi to go down.
As soon as he left, the emperor said to An Jiu: "Did you hear that? This is my specialty."
An Jiu thought, there are many ways to kill people, just because you have a unique skill doesn’t mean others can’t use it, right?
This isn't some difficult method of killing.
The emperor stared at her: "Just because of his ambiguous words, you doubt that he is not the murderer?"
An Jiu paused.
What the emperor said makes sense.
Isn't the reason why the tyrant is called the tyrant because he was very cruel before? But since when did the tyrant seem to be just a poor child with a weird temper in her eyes?
but……
An Jiu felt that the tyrant would not lie. What he did was what he did. Even if he was confused at the time, he should have some impression of having killed someone, right?
The emperor frowned slightly and looked at An Jiu deeply.
This really trusts that guy.
The reputation is so bad, and he said it wasn't true, so the fool believed it?
Even the emperor himself didn't believe it.
…
The emperor asked for a box of pearls, and this matter could not be hidden from the people in the harem.
Shufei and Defei all know about it.
At first, they also suspected that the emperor had a woman because he had been a little suspicious recently.
However, the booklet sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs contained many good things suitable for women, such as expensive rouge and powder, expensive silks and satins, and expensive jewelry, but the emperor did not want any of them and showed no interest at all.
Both Concubines Shude breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems not.
That's good.
The emperor wanted pearls, perhaps just to play with them on a whim.
And the Queen Mother...
Sick.
After that incident, she never left the house.
The weather was bad recently, and the Queen Mother's small kitchen caught fire. The Imperial Kitchen considered that the Queen Mother might not have much appetite, so her meals became the same as before, such as steamed buns, dumplings, green vegetables, and porridge...
The meal seemed crude, cheap and unpalatable to the Queen Mother.
Plus I feel depressed.
After all this operation, the Queen Mother fell ill.
She had a high fever and was unconscious. Prince Ruyang was very worried and petitioned the emperor to visit her in the palace.
How could the emperor be wrong?
Then King Ruyang came.
Since he was here, the emperor, as a filial son, had no choice but to go.
The two brothers went all the way to the Cining Palace.
Prince Ruyang looked at the familiar palace and couldn't help but sigh.
"Royal brother, when I was little I really wanted to play with you guys, but you and the other brothers didn't seem to like taking me with you."
An Jiu thought, of course, which eldest child would be willing to play with his younger siblings?
And this younger brother is a nasty kid born to my stepmother.
It’s good enough that I didn’t beat you to death.
However, Prince Ruyang obviously did not realize this.
The emperor's thoughts were in a mess.
[I bring you with me? I get annoyed when I see you. ]
[You fell into the lake by yourself, and I saved you. Then you cried and said, it wasn’t your brother who pushed you, but you fell in by accident…]
[The words are true, but the people who hear them do not think they are true. ]
[You have been a bitch since you were a child. You love to snatch things from me, as if I owe you something. ]
[The throne was passed down to me by my father. You and I are both his sons. How can it be considered as someone trying to steal yours? ]
[Is your name written on the throne? ? ? ]
[If you have the ability, and you are as smart, handsome, and pleasing to my father as I am, he will pass the throne to you.]
[My father has already said that I am his favorite son. ]
[Don't you even look in the mirror? How dare you compare yourself to me? ]
【Pooh! 】
For every word Prince Ruyang said, he would complain ten times in his heart.
When he arrived at the gate of Cining Palace, Prince Ruyang's voice was choked with sobs.
"Brother, can't you let me stay in the capital? I want to be with my mother more often, so she won't be lonely..."
People who don’t understand him would definitely think that Prince Ruyang’s crying was pitiful and out of filial piety.
But the emperor seemed to be completely immune to this Prince of Ruyang.
He sighed and said, "The Queen Mother's loneliness has nothing to do with you. If you are truly filial, pick a few good-looking eunuchs and send them to her. But be careful this time, and don't let anything go wrong again."
Prince Ruyang: "..."
An Jiu clearly saw that King Ruyang's face was distorted for a moment, and he completely lost control of his expression. When he noticed that An Jiu was looking at him, his expression changed in a second, he wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and showed An Jiu a helpless and bitter smile.
An Jiu "..."
Oh my god, I finally understand why men like Green Tea. An Jiu already knows that he is a Green Tea, but when he smiled like that, I still couldn't help but sympathize with him for a second.
But it was only for a second.
Poor workers don't deserve to sympathize with the chairman's son.
"Royal brother, why do you say that? Aren't we brothers? Father asked us to love each other." Prince Ruyang was filled with the fragrance of tea again.
The emperor smiled and said, "Did I say anything excessive? Am I not afraid that the Queen Mother will be lonely?"
Prince Ruyang stopped talking.
The Queen Mother was in a fever-stricken state and kept muttering nonsense.
The palace maid guarding the gate was so frightened when she saw the emperor and Prince Ruyang that she almost dropped the plate in her hand.
The emperor looked at her and said, "Open the door."
The maid lowered her head and opened the door, and then the word "Decai" was heard by everyone.
An Jiu "..."
She felt the atmosphere froze at that moment.
Except for the Queen Mother, everyone stopped breathing.
【Ha ha ha ha! 】
【I am dying of laughter. 】
Only the sound of screaming chickens echoed in the courtyard, accompanied by the Queen Mother's repeated words of "virtue and talent".
Prince Ruyang's face turned green.
He suddenly leaned against the door frame and laughed. Everyone was looking at him, but he just kept laughing like a madman.
After a while, he wiped the tears from laughing at the corners of his eyes.
"Brother, life is really hard sometimes."
The emperor looked at him without any expression and said, "I don't think so. If people like us have a hard time, then others should not live."
An Jiu nodded wildly.
I really don’t know why these rulers are being so pretentious?
Did the King of Ruyang feel miserable because he was not in the capital? How many people in this world were not in the capital, how many people were hungry and clothed, did he feel that his mother had abandoned him, and that he felt that it was difficult not to be as good as his brothers?
But look at the people in this yard, except the emperor, who is not more miserable than him?
These people may not be able to see their families in this lifetime...
