After the rebirth, the concubine, she went crazy

Chapter 73 The Empress Breaks the Ice
In the palace of Ye Ting.

The room was dim and dark, and the cold wind blew through the dilapidated palace making creaking noises, making it even more eerie.

The queen has been crouching down and embracing herself, never lifting but trembling uncontrollably.

There were hurried footsteps outside the hall, the outside door was locked, and the key could not be found in a short time.

"Why are you standing there in a daze? Break the door open, hurry up!" the emperor ordered to a group of guards around him.

The guards did not dare to hesitate after receiving the emperor's order, and used brute force to force the palace gate open.

With a bang, the palace gate fell to the ground.

At this time, the sun was about to set outside the hall, and the Yeting Hall was originally facing north, so the sun did not shine all the year round, even if the door was opened, it did not get a ray of light.

The emperor walked in quickly, with a panic that he didn't know, but the moment he entered, he froze in place.

I saw that the queen was no longer as calm and calm as before, and she didn't lift her head from her knees when she heard the sound of the door falling down. She huddled into a ball and trembled even more.

"Ah, I'm here." The emperor walked towards the queen in the corner, knelt down and embraced her.

Nian Xi is the queen's boudoir name, and the emperor has not called her that for more than ten years.

The queen was originally immersed in the darkness, suffocating and helpless, but now she was immersed in warmth, and she couldn't help but want to get closer.

The emperor felt the person in his arms approaching actively, and rubbed his head against his shoulder. This was the first time he felt the queen's approach to him in more than ten years. He was a little overwhelmed and a little excited.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here." The emperor continued to comfort the queen, his voice was gentler than ever before.

The queen gradually recovered from her fear, realized that she was in the arms of the emperor, and pushed him away, trying to get out of this embrace.

The emperor felt the queen's resistance, and the words he was trying to appease froze, no longer the gentleness just now, but he didn't intend to let go.

The queen pushed it lightly for a couple of times, but did not push it away, before she spoke, with a tear still in her tone: "What are you planning to do?"

Even after hearing this sentence, the emperor didn't let go, but he didn't speak either.

Because the Queen calmed down in the hall, only the breathing of the two remained.

"Don't tell your concubine that the emperor still wants to go back to the past." The queen's voice was calm and indifferent.

Hearing these words, the emperor let her go.

Seeing that the queen was no longer the same as when he just entered the palace just now, he felt relieved and said, "It's just that I saw the queen was afraid and remembered the past."

After listening, the queen didn't answer, she just stood up and planned to leave.

"Is it true that we can't go back to the past?" The emperor stood up, watched the queen's movements, and finally held her back.

The queen closed her eyes and took a slow breath, as if to calm down the fear just now, and also as if the emperor's words had caused her heart to fluctuate.

The queen turned around slowly, looking at the familiar but unfamiliar face in front of her: "Before?"

After finishing speaking, she smiled, as if she didn't care: "The concubine is stupid, I don't know which one the emperor said before? Is the concubine bereaved and the emperor only favors the concubine, or the emperor insists on marrying Yuning despite the concubine's obstruction?" When would you like to thank the Prime Minister?"

If Xie Chen had been present, once the Queen's words came out, she would definitely have asked about what happened when she got married.

But the emperor knew what the queen was talking about as soon as he heard it. These things were the knot between him and the queen, and it was also the reason why the queen had let him try to please her all these years, but she was no longer willing to be close to him.

The emperor saw that the queen in front of him didn't care about him, and he didn't let go of her hand, but he still asked: "Wouldn't it be better to go back to the time when you married me?"

Unlike the usual high-ranking appearance, this time he seemed a little humble.

"Back then?" The queen seemed to recall it after hearing it, and then said: "The concubine forgot."

The emperor knew her answer in his heart, but he still wanted to give it a try, but after hearing it, his heart still hurt sharply, and he gradually let go of the queen's hand.

"It would be fine if you really forgot, and you won't stop looking at me for so many years."

When the emperor and the empress met for the first time, he was still a prince who seldom appeared in court, and he never thought of becoming an emperor.

Although the first emperor was not as weak as he was, all of them were useless, but he became the best among them, the most suitable person to succeed to the throne.

He met Nian Yu because of his younger sister, Princess Yuning, and he liked her because of her kindness, so he immediately asked the first emperor to marry her. After marriage, he was happy and sweet, and he never took concubines.

But before the emperor died, he left a decree for him to ascend the throne. Naturally, he was more surprised than anything else, and he didn't think about what happened next.

After ascending to the throne, the courtiers wrote to him to make the current concubine Xiao Gui the empress, because Concubine Xiao had a noble family and her father was a very famous Taifu.

Nian Yu also told him that he was willing not to be a queen, as long as his heart was still in him, he was willing to be a concubine.

But he didn't want to, so the first thing he did after he ascended the throne was to disregard the wishes of the ministers in the court and set up Nian Yu as the empress, saying that the year before he became the throne, she was the official wife, and if he made the Xiao family's daughter the empress, it would be humiliating her.

Under the fierce reaction of the ministers in the court, he still made Nian Huan as the empress regardless, but in the end he also took a step back and gave the Xiao family the position of noble concubine.

Concubine Xiao was born in a noble family, and there were countless people who wanted to marry her before she entered the palace, and the queen was only the daughter of a third-rank official, not even a legitimate daughter, so how could she be subservient to others, so she opposed the queen everywhere.

The queen didn't want the emperor to worry about herself after dealing with the affairs of the previous court with all her heart every day, so she endured the troubles and grievances silently.

More and more people were sent to the harem from the previous dynasty, and many of them were of higher status than the empress, and like Concubine Xiao, they did not take the empress seriously.

It's fine if the emperor doesn't know at first, but as time goes on, will the emperor not know?
He just pretended not to know it, and the queen knew it too.

Half a year after ascending the throne, the queen became pregnant, and the emperor was naturally happy, so the father who was promoted to the queen became a second-rank official.

Because of all kinds of actions, all the courts and harem guessed that the emperor wanted to make the fetus in the empress's womb the crown prince, and they couldn't help panicking.

Concubine Xiao Gui had a bad temper, but she was not someone who would murder others behind the scenes, so the other concubines in the palace had to do it themselves.

With a bowl of miscarriage medicine in the dark, the queen's child is gone.

The queen was sad and seriously ill for half a year. Even when the emperor came to her palace, she thought of a way to drive him out, and the concubine who killed her unborn baby was only demoted to a nobleman because of her good family background.

Of course, because of this matter, the emperor also attacked the concubine's father in the previous court, and only after half a year did he uproot them and endow the concubine to death.

The queen was sad but still gave the emperor a chance. Not long after the concubine died, they had another child, the current prince.
