The emperor always wants to promise himself

Chapter 287 Are You Afraid of Me?

With a sound of "bang", the old concubine slapped the small table on the soft couch viciously, causing the tea cups and snacks on it to tremble violently.

Her well-maintained finger in the armor pointed to Xiao Yu, and the gems embedded in it shone with a cold luster under the light.

"Xiao Yu—who gave you the guts to talk to me like that? Do you still know what filial piety is? You are the regent now, and you forget who you are when you are held up by the emperor and courtiers. Do you still remember you? Is--"

"What is it?" Xiao Yu intercepted her words and asked back with a half-smile: "It's a woman, right?"

The old concubine's pupils shrank, her eyes trembled slightly, her chest heaved up and down, "It's good that you know."

"I know, I've always known, this is my own body, how could I not know? But you—the old princess, do you still remember that I am your daughter? How have you treated me these years? And what kind of belief can support you to sit in front of me with the cheek to speak boldly and accuse me?"

"you--"

The old concubine shook her hands angrily, her eyes became fierce, "I raised you a white-eyed wolf just because you bite me back now? If I had known this, I might as well have strangled you to death!"

Xiao Yu suddenly smiled, "Hahahaha——you've kept those words in your heart for 16 years, right? Maybe you just gave birth to me, and when you saw that I'm not a son, you wanted to do something to me, right?"

The old princess pursed her lips and did not deny it.

Xiao Yu stood up while applauding, and paced the room with his hands behind his back: "16 years ago, you had no children for a long time, and your father took a concubine. Seeing that Concubine Luo had a child not long after she arrived, you were very anxious. Seeing the child fell to the ground, it was a son, and he looked very similar to the prince, you felt even more flustered, seeing the prince brought Xiao Quan by your side, you couldn't sit still."

The old concubine's heart tightened: "What nonsense are you talking about? Can you lose your head?"

"You prayed to immortals, burned incense and prayed to Buddha, took a lot of beggar medicine, but your stomach didn't move, until your father and king went out again, you were finally pregnant, you couldn't be happier, be careful about food and clothing, He also specially sent a letter to his father."

"Father is also very happy, and promised that as long as you give birth to a son, you will be the son of the world."

Xiao Yu didn't care what the old concubine looked like, and didn't look at her, and just talked about the grievances and hatreds 16 years ago on his own.

"At that time, your younger sister has already been favored in the palace, and the scenery is boundless. Everyone said that Duke Ding gave birth to a good daughter. You want to dominate your sister in everything. How can you tolerate her climbing on your head?"

Speaking of this, Xiao Yu paused, turned around to look at the pale old concubine, and smiled maliciously: "You drink the anti-fetal medicine on time every day, and everything has to be checked and checked before you agree to it." Use it, I'm afraid that there may be some problems with your own baby's stomach, if you have any real affection for me, it will only be in the ten months before I was born."

"Unfortunately, it's probably because you ate too well during pregnancy. You suffered from dystocia and gave birth to a daughter after a narrow escape. When Wen Po said it was a daughter, you immediately panicked. You wanted to strangle me, but the doctor at the time said It will be very difficult for you to get pregnant again in the future, you think about it, and put me in your arms as if nothing happened."

"Stop talking!" The old concubine held Xiaoji tightly with her hands, her knuckles were white, and the armor was pinched into her palm. Seeing that she was about to pierce her skin, she woke up suddenly, let go of her hand, and gasped for breath.

Those past events that cannot be seen have been pressed in her heart for 16 years, and they have already become a rotten disease in her heart, which cannot be healed, and she is most afraid of being touched.

Now being torn apart bloody by Xiao Yu, her body felt chills.

Xiao Yu saw the panic in her eyes, and asked in amazement: "So you are also afraid?"

"But when you ordered the guards to silence all the people who delivered the baby that day, were you afraid? When you warned the maids around you that you would call me son in the future, were you afraid? The father went out for almost a year, and when he came back, you Are you afraid that I can’t see people because I’m sick?”

"Those lies one after another. When you told them, did you ever think about what if they were exposed?"

Xiao Yu sneered again and again, "You never thought about it, you only thought about your own glory and wealth."

"In order to confuse the fake with the real one, you specially asked someone to buy a baby boy back. You covered your face and gave the father a look. You said that I had acne and couldn't see the wind, so I took a look at my body."

The old concubine's face became paler: "How do you know...how do you know these things?"

"If you want people not to know, unless you do nothing, do you think that the people around you are loyal to you? People are doing what the sky is watching, and you have done all the bad things, so they may not want to be with you."

Xiao Yu sneered, "Don't worry, I haven't finished yet."

"After the father believed my identity, he was busy with his own affairs, and I was 'ill', so he had little time to visit me. Later, the baby boy was sent away by you, and I became a son logically. You taught me how to imitate a man's walking, imitating his speaking manner, walking, sitting and lying down, and you asked me not to show any flaws. Look, didn't I do all of this? Why are you not happy?"

Xiao Yu approached slowly, the old concubine looked at her half-smile face, she felt a little scared in her heart, she stepped back a bit, and at this moment, her aura suddenly weakened.

Xiao Yu bent his eyes and smiled more gently: "Mother? Are you afraid of me?"

The old concubine felt cold immediately, she couldn't help shivering, and asked harshly, "You...are you a human or a ghost? What do you want to do?!"

Her face was about to be tense, and her eyes were flooded with fear.

"Of course it's a human being."

Xiao Yu said lightly, as soon as he grabbed the hand of the old princess and pressed it to his heart, the old princess trembled again, her hands and feet began to feel cold.

"Did you feel it? My heart is still beating. It's a pity, right? I fell into the frozen lake that day. I survived a catastrophe and survived. Your plan has failed, and you hate it?"

The old concubine struggled, "Xiao Yu, are you suffering from hysteria? What nonsense are you talking about? How could I harm you?"

Xiao Yu's eyes were dark and bottomless, he threw away the old princess's hand, and looked down at the slightly embarrassed old princess, "You know what I say, and I know what you think. I will firmly remember everything I did, one piece at a time, and I will never forget it.”

She glanced at the dark sky outside the window, and said coldly: "So don't play tricks anymore, and don't expect me to abdicate obediently. If you have the ability, the throne is here, and I'll wait for you to take it."

After finishing speaking, she took a deep look at the old concubine, turned and left with a smile.

The old concubine stared at her back with resentment, and when someone came out, she waved her arm, and all the things on the small table were swept to the ground, and the sound of "crackling" broken porcelain followed one after another.

"Xiao, Yu—"
