The Second Marriage of a Passionate Monarch: Princess Chongxi

Chapter 243

"It's only natural for a daughter-in-law to serve her mother-in-law. Why should the queen mother be so emotional?"

"This is not the only thing that Aijia is emotional about, Aijia." The Empress Dowager hesitated to speak, but she didn't want to bring some words into the coffin, "Except for grabbing the back seat, you have never been sorry to Aijia, On the contrary, everything is respectful, even when the Ai family asked Qingning to marry Hao'er, although you didn't like Qingning, you agreed. You didn't do anything wrong. The concubines that the Su family is fighting for include you, as well as Concubine Li and Concubine Hui."

"Mother, why did you ask me to supervise the sentence? Do you know that because of this, how many years have passed, and many people in the palace still think that Lan Luo was betrayed by me, I..." The queen mother couldn't argue.

The Empress Dowager smiled bitterly, "This is the effect I want. To divide your sisterhood, whoever gets the son first gets the throne. There is no woman in the harem who doesn't want to be a queen, but Lan Luo is a fool. He wanted to protect her, but she didn't appreciate it, so don't blame Aijia for being rude to her. But fortunately, he didn't put the bail on her, and gave birth to a daughter in spite of himself."

"Empress Mother!" Both the Empress Dowager and Concubine Li were shocked. They didn't expect that the Empress Dowager knew about this, and even knew that Concubine De didn't kill Concubine Hui and gave birth to a child, but obviously she didn't know the truth. The child has already been swapped, and it is only assumed that Concubine Hui has indeed given birth to a daughter.

The Empress Dowager looked at the Empress Dowager, "Do you think you can hide things from the Ai family? At the beginning, Concubine Hui did not have an affair with outsiders, and it was all arranged for her by the Ai family. Otherwise, how could the emperor be willing to give her death. And How could the three of you with a solid wall of iron go your separate ways and have constant internal strife? The Ai family will clean up all of you with one move, ha ha."

The Empress Dowager was still a little proud, but she was smiling, but her heart was full of bitterness.Concubine Li was shocked, "You said that you provoked everything? It has nothing to do with the Queen Mother?"

"Zhao Xun is just my scapegoat. Otherwise, how can you hate Lan Luo for her death? Lin Yuexia, you have been fighting for most of your life, have you never tried to talk about it? Actually, the Ai family back then The matter is full of loopholes. It is just relying on the emperor's anger to issue the killing order. Who knows that Zhao Xun dared to hide Lan Luo privately. This was only found out later by the Ai family. When he went, Lan Luo had already given birth to a daughter and said he was going Gong, let me let her and the child go. How could the Aijia let her go, this goblin who confuses the emperor, if he doesn't listen to Aijia's words, it will only be a disaster for his beauty if he keeps her."

"So." Concubine Li's heart tightened fiercely, "You killed her? Did you kill Lan Luo?"

"Yes, it was done by Aijia. Aijia ordered the baby girl to be smothered to death. Lan Luo resisted so fiercely that he crashed into a pillar and died."

What the Empress Dowager said made the Empress Dowager and Concubine Li speechless in fright.Wei Young hugged Chengxi, her first reaction was to stay away from the Empress Dowager, it was too scary, she was simply insane.If it is false to say that Lan Luo's affair with outsiders is false, then that child, in the eyes of the Empress Dowager, is the emperor's flesh and blood, and she, unexpectedly, managed to do it!
"What about the baby girl, are you sure she was dead at that time?" The Queen Mother suddenly asked, and Concubine Li was in a state of confusion. If the Queen Mother did everything, then what was she doing all these years?Revenge?

The Empress Dowager said calmly, "Yes, I'm suffocated to death, and there is no possibility of being alive. The emperor has issued a killing order, even adults and children. Why would the Ai family make trouble for themselves and leave that evil seed behind. After that, you Just came back, you thought that Lan Luo committed suicide, and you took her to the back mountain to bury her, so the Ai family ordered someone to inform Li Fei to watch. I have to say, this is the most elaborate scene designed by the Ai family. You have hated each other for decades, and you, Zhao Xun, you got the second position, you are a thorn in the side of the Ai family, but what did you get? The emperor thought it was you who sent the report letter, and he has completely given up on you Aijia once felt that watching them fight was very happy and fulfilling. Then when I think about it at this moment, I feel that everything is so bloody, ahem. Aijia. Aijia shouldn’t have killed Lan Luo, no The originally harmonious family should have become like this."

The queen mother fell down on the edge of the bed, she never thought that the truth was like this.Lan Luo didn't commit suicide, but the Empress Dowager? !All her life, she lived under the designs of the Queen Mother, including Concubine Li.It's just a child, isn't the child dead, why did it come back?

She looked at Wei Young uneasily, and Wei Young also looked dazed and terrified.

"You said you killed Lan Luo? You were responsible for everything?" Concubine Li suddenly became agitated.

The Empress Dowager said flatly, "Yes, Aijia."

"I'll strangle you to death. If you kill Lan Luo, you deserve to die!" Concubine Li strangled the Empress Dowager's neck in a frenzy. Concubine Li pulled away, but the Empress Dowager twitched a few times, but she didn't raise her breath, she died out of breath.

There was a dead silence in the room, the three of them looked at the dead empress dowager on the bed with her eyes closed, staring at me and I at you in a daze.

"Bang" Concubine Li knelt down in front of the Queen Mother crying bitterly, unable to say anything.Although Zhao Xun changed Lan Luo's child, it is undeniable that Zhao Xun did not kill Lan Luo, and even saved Lan Luo when Bai Lingci died.And Lan Luo also wanted to accept her fate and leave the palace with Concubine De's daughter, she didn't care about all of this.It was her, it was she who thought that Lan Luo had died tragically, and took pains to take revenge on Zhao Xun.

"I'm sorry, Sister Xun, I'm sorry, I'm sorry" Concubine Li fell on the ground, it was the first time Wei Young saw her so humble, kneeling in front of the queen mother with tears streaming down her face, she didn't look like she used to be so glorious.

The Queen Mother also knelt on the ground, holding Concubine Li tightly in her arms, "I don't blame you, it's me who shouldn't be greedy for the Queen's position, it's me who hurt others and eventually hurts myself. You are not wrong, everything you do is for Lan Luo, and I'm not worthy to be her sister. Under the moon, my heart hurts so much"

Decades of love and resentment, they hated each other for decades because of that unnecessary hatred.He spent his best youth on hatred, and neglected the growth and education of his children.She didn't even know what they were doing in this life?Wanting to keep the sisterhood, the result is the same fighting for favor.He wanted to defend the emperor, but in the end he fell in love with the dead woman.What did they get?Rights, favors, kinship, friendship?No, nothing!

The two hugged each other and wept bitterly. Concubine Li lost her voice, "I lied to you, even now I am still lying to you, the child is dead long ago, your daughter is dead long ago..."

"Then who am I? Who am I?" Wei Young asked unwillingly, although she had already begun to suspect from the Queen Mother's mouth that she was not Zhao Xun's daughter, but who was she? into it?
"You..." Concubine Li didn't even have the courage to look at Wei Young, she covered her face and cried, crying all the tears she hadn't shed for decades.Too many grievances and hatred have to be washed away with these tears, how many 20 years can there be in life?They are all used for hatred!
"Who am I? I'm not the Empress Dowager's daughter, so who am I?" Wei Young asked sharply, Cheng Xi was startled awake and cried loudly.

"You are an orphan I brought back from outside the palace. You have no parents, and they are all dead!"

Wei Young's heart suddenly sank to the bottom. At that moment, she only had herself in her world, only her broken heart, and she couldn't even hear Cheng Xi's cry, "Are... all dead?"

The queen mother wiped her tears and said, "Impossible, Wei Young has a birthmark, she..."

Wei Young remembered, "That's not a birthmark, it's a stab."

She suddenly understood everything, "I'm just the revenge item you carried into the palace, right? Because the queen mother's daughter died, you brought me into the palace, let me be her, and help you complete the revenge plan, and An Yunhao Isn't it? All of this is fake, but you have succeeded in making us all suffer. Concubine Li, you are simply a devil. I manipulated my life, and you ruined my life. I hate you , I will never forgive you in this life."

Concubine Li was in a hurry, "Xue Ying!"

"Don't call me that, the name that only my mother would call in the past, the name that made me warm, but now I find it extremely hateful and harsh, don't call me that, even this name doesn't belong to me, I'm not Xue Ying, I'm not the Queen Mother's daughter, let alone yours!"

"Wei Young, Wei Young, I had no choice at the time, I wanted to avenge Lan Luo, I..."

"Then why did you choose me, why was it me?"

"Because among so many orphans, only you are allergic to sweet-scented osmanthus, only you, I can only choose you. This is God's will, Weiyang, this is your fate, you can't believe it. I'm sorry for you, but you should be thankful for you You and the emperor are not brothers and sisters, you..."

"Yeah, I should be glad. I'm glad you chose me. I'm glad you brought me into the palace. I'm glad you gave me the glory and wealth I have now. You gave me the honor of Concubine Jing. I'm glad you gave me everything, yes. Yes, I should thank you, thank you..."

"Weiyang, don't do this, you will scare the child!" The queen mother hugged Weiyang, who was a little broken, and said in tears, "It's over, Weiyang, we are sorry for you, it is all our fault, we dare not ask for your forgiveness , just please don’t hurt yourself, and don’t scare the child. You are not alone, you have Chengxi, you see the child is crying. Weiyang, mother will never stop you from being together again, it’s all the mother’s fault , Queen Mother"

The queen mother choked up and said that she wanted to hold the child in Weiyang's arms, but she refused.She wiped away the tears on her face, stood up without saying a word, and walked out of the bedroom.The Queen Mother shouted anxiously, "Wei Young, Wei Young."

Kneeling outside the palace, the maids who didn't know what to do inside, saw Wei Young coming out, and seemed to have cried, the imperial doctor asked anxiously, "Ms. Jing, is the Empress Dowager?"

However, without answering, she just walked out of the hall with the child in her arms, walking away silently.
