The prince wanted to divorce his wife during pregnancy, and the reborn princess burst into laughter

Chapter 123: Nanny Xia tells again

After Nanny Xia helped the empress dowager to the bed, she felt uneasy and asked the palace servants guarding outside what was going on with the empress dowager.

The Queen Mother was fine when she left, but became like this when she came back. Something must have happened.

Those palace maids were locked outside the palace and had no idea what had happened. They only knew that the Queen Mother and Nanny Xia talked for a long time inside.

The palace maids had no choice but to tell the truth.

"What about Aunt Xia?"

A palace servant replied, "We saw Nanny Xia go out alone. She was not in a good mood."

Nanny Song frowned. She knew what kind of person Nanny Xia was in front of the Queen Mother. Nanny Xia must have said something that made the Queen Mother collapse, which led to the two of them being like this.

So Nanny Song immediately sent someone to find Nanny Xia, but found her in the cold palace, and she said nothing.

Nanny Song was so anxious that she had no choice but to go find Ling Xiao.

It doesn’t matter if Nanny Xia died. If anything happens to the Empress Dowager, they will have to pay for her funeral.

After receiving the report, Ling Xiao hurried over immediately. Seeing that the empress dowager looked lifeless, he became anxious and quickly called someone to examine her.

The imperial physician bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is just feeling depressed, but there is nothing serious wrong with her body. Talk to her more and she will be happy, and everything will be fine."

"Well, then go get some medicine for the Queen Mother. Thank you for your hard work."

Such a thing happened on the first day of the new year. Ling Xiao was exhausted both physically and mentally, so he sent the imperial physician away.

Only after the imperial physician left did Ling Xiao call her "Madam Xia".

"Your Majesty, Nanny Xia is in the cold palace. The Empress Dowager's behavior is probably related to her."

Nanny Song immediately stepped forward and responded.

Ling Xiao pressed his brows. Nanny Xia had followed the Queen Mother for decades and he had never seen any conflicts between the master and servant. What on earth happened today?

Ling Xiao asked Nanny Song: "Madam, do you know what happened?"

Nanny Song told Ling Xiao everything that happened today.

Ling Xiao had no choice but to ask everyone to withdraw. Since no one knew, he could only ask the Queen Mother.

"Mother, mother, what's wrong with you? Tell your son, don't do this and make him worry."

When the Queen Mother heard Ling Xiao's voice, she slowly turned around. Her eyes were red and swollen from crying, like two walnuts.

Ling Xiao was startled and quickly wiped her tears: "Mother, what's wrong with you? Who made you like this? I will kill her entire clan."

Ling Xiao had grown up, and even when they were in the most difficult times, the Queen Mother had never cried like this.

"Son, I'm sorry for you."

The Queen Mother held Ling Xiao's hand and burst into tears again. She hated herself for being blind and stupid. She didn't know such simple tricks in the harem.

Ling Xiao held the Queen Mother's hand with his backhand and shook his head: "What are you saying, Queen Mother? There is no overnight hatred between mother and son. It was because my son was too impulsive that he said those words. Queen Mother, please don't take it to heart."

Ling Xiao thought that it was what he said in the afternoon that hurt the Queen Mother's heart.

The Queen Mother is still his biological mother after all, Ling Xiao cannot blame her for coming.

They, mother and son, had been through many ups and downs along the way without ever having any conflicts. It was only after he became emperor that conflicts began to arise between them.

"No, no, mother is really wrong." The Queen Mother shook her head and said anxiously, "Xiao'er, you don't know that the reason why mother is like this is because of Nanny Xia who has been instigating and exaggerating beside her.

She was sent by my mother's step-grandmother to help her sow discord between her and the people around her, so that everyone around her would hate her and despise her, and eventually cause her to die of depression."

Ling Xiao frowned after hearing this: "Then the Queen Mother knows what her purpose is, is that all, nothing else?"

Ling Xiao is not as naive as the Queen Mother. There is no hatred or love without reason in this world. Since Old Madam Ji treats the Queen Mother in such a way, there must be a reason.

After Empress Dowager Ling Xiao asked this, her mind slowly came back to normal, and she was thinking carefully about what she had said to Nanny Xia.

Only then did she realize that there were some things she had not asked clearly, so she called Nanny Song.

"Go and bring Nanny Xia to me."

"Yes, Queen Mother."

Nanny Song took the palace maids to the cold palace again. Nanny Xia thought that Nanny Song was here to send her to death. She was so scared that she huddled in the corner and cried.

"Why are you crying? If you had known this would happen, why did you do it in the first place?"

Nanny Song was extremely contemptuous of him. He thought this man was a brainless person. He just kept talking nonsense in front of the empress dowager all day long. He didn't know what would become of him after his secret was exposed.

Look, the Queen Mother has woken up now.

She didn't care whether Nanny Xia was afraid or not. She waved her hand and several Nannies pulled Nanny Xia out of the cold palace. They covered her mouth for fear that she would scream like a ghost, and dragged her all the way to the Empress Dowager's palace and threw her directly in front of the Empress Dowager and Ling Xiao.

When Nanny Xia arrived at Lingxiao, she was trembling with fear. She felt as if the Black and White Impermanence appeared in front of her, and she was about to kneel down and beg for mercy.

Ling Xiao said coldly: "You don't have to beg for mercy. It's useless to beg for mercy. I want to ask you, since Old Lady Ji sent you to the Queen Mother, there must be a reason. I want to know."

Nanny Xia stammered a few times and groaned inwardly, but she could no longer hide it.

She closed her eyes and said, "Your Majesty, if I tell you, can you spare my family?"

Nanny Xia knew that once the truth was revealed, her family would be implicated. Ling Xiao was not a soft-hearted person. She had watched him grow up, and she knew how cruel and ruthless he was, so she tried her best to protect her family before she told the truth.

"Do you still have family?"

The Queen Mother was surprised, because she had always thought that Nanny Xia was bought from the dental shop, and she had never asked about Nanny Xia's background.

There is no one who is sold into the pawnbroker's shop without a miserable life story, and it was Ji who gave it to her, so she believed it completely.

Ling Xiao suddenly realized: "Your family is in the Huang Mansion?"

Mrs. Ji’s mother’s surname is Huang, and her family is the Huang family of the current Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Mr. Huang.

The Ministry of Revenue had a Shangshu and four Shilang under him, and Shilang Huang was one of them.

Just because he is related to the Ji family by marriage, he thinks highly of him.

"Yes, please, Queen Mother, spare my family."

"Hmph, you old troublemaker, you have done so many evil things to me in the past few decades, and you still dare to beg for mercy for your family at this time. You'd better give me a clear explanation today, otherwise, I will definitely kill all your clans."

The Queen Mother was furious. She had never thought about it in this way. It turned out that this old slave had been living at ease under her nose for decades.

And she even spared her family? Don't even think about it. Isn't she the most noble woman in the Great Yan Kingdom and the biological mother of the emperor? She should be arrogant.

Nanny Xia's heart choked, and she was so frightened that she confessed everything about Old Madam Ji and Old Mistress Ji.
