An Lingrong's Rebirth: Red

"Yi Xiu is vicious and unfit to be the queen. The Sixth and Seventh Princes were both born from the queen's prescription.

The imperial physician tried everything, but was unable to ensure that the two of them would live to adulthood in good health.

Empress Dowager, what Yixiu did was far more than just harming Rouze and the Second Prince."

The Queen Mother is very clear about what the Queen has done. What the Emperor said is just the tip of the iceberg. There are even more crimes hidden beneath the water, but the Emperor just doesn't know it yet.

“Your Majesty, if it was something else, it would be fine, but the Sixth and Seventh Princes’ health must have been framed by Concubine Jing and Concubine Chun.

Your Majesty, please think carefully. If it was done by the Queen, what good will it do her?

A few years later, the two children died one after another, and the rumors among the people that the Empress was immoral and that the Queen only ate children began to spread.

The Queen is not a fool. Doing such a thing will only do her harm and no good, so why would she do it?"

The Queen Mother's words certainly made some sense from the perspective of protecting the Queen, but the Emperor had already determined that the Queen was responsible for what happened to the Seventh Prince and would not listen to the Queen Mother's explanation at all.

"The prescription for Concubine Chun was personally sent by the Queen. Zhang Mi was a former court judge. He diagnosed Concubine Chun's pulse but never found any problems. Doesn't the Queen Mother think this is too strange?

Later, when I was investigating rumors about Shen, I discovered the relationship between Zhang Mi and the Queen.

All the evidence points to the Queen, there is no way she can deny it."

Once the emperor started investigating, he found out everything so clearly that the empress dowager could not come up with any other excuse except to say that someone must have framed her maliciously and wanted to seize the position of empress.

"That matter of Rouze..."

The emperor didn't want to recall Rouze's death, but in order to convince the empress dowager, he had to bring up those painful memories.

From Yixiu using prescriptions to induce Rouze to have a child, to using her medical background to help Rouze take care of her body to prevent the emperor and the sisters in other courtyards from noticing anything unusual.

And from time to time, she would ask the sisters to act together, making the emperor really believe that Rouze was in good health, and that she only asked Yixiu to take care of herself in order to ease Yixiu's pain of losing her child.

Finally, under the influence of peach kernel tea and hawthorn tea, which were harmful to the fetus, Rouze gave birth to the second prince with great difficulty. However, due to Rouze's weak body and the overbearing nature of the prescription, both mother and son died.

Yixiu hides her deep love for her sister, and even receives Rouze's care again before her death.

"She also told me to take good care of Yixiu and protect Yixiu, Empress Dowager, but Yixiu was the one who killed her. Such a result is ridiculous.

What Yixiu did was so despicable and vicious! "

"What does the emperor think?"

Completely different from the Emperor's excitement, the Empress Dowager's emotions did not even fluctuate much. She had only one purpose in this matter, which was to keep Yixiu's position as Queen, no matter what the cost.

"I think that Yixiu is no longer suitable to be the queen. If the Empress Dowager agrees, the imperial decree can be issued."

"Your Majesty, how could this be asking for my opinion? The imperial edict has already been written. This is clearly to inform me.

In the eyes of the emperor, my words are actually not important at all."

The Queen Mother looked displeased and turned her head away, unwilling to look at the Emperor any more.

The emperor was also holding back his anger, and the mother and son were in a stalemate, with the atmosphere becoming increasingly cold and stiff.

Just when the emperor could not bear it any longer and was about to leave, he suddenly discovered that the empress dowager was wiping her cheek with her hand, and seemed to be shedding tears.

No matter how hard your heart is, it will soften when faced with your mother's tears.

The anger that had been stuck in his chest just dissipated, and the emperor even began to reflect on whether what he had just said was too harsh.

"…Empress Dowager."

"Your Majesty, please do whatever you want. I am old and my mind is not clear anymore. No matter what I say, it will only make Your Majesty resentful.

For the sake of our relationship, I'd better keep silent."

The Queen Mother wiped her tears again, called Zhu Xi in, and asked her to send the Emperor out.

Zhuxi only listened to the Queen Mother's words and immediately bowed and requested when he received the order.

The emperor naturally didn't want to leave. He sat beside the bed and asked after a long time what the Empress Dowager wanted her to do.

"Do whatever you want. I won't stop you. Right now in the palace, you and Yixiu are the only ones I can talk to.

If Yixiu were no longer around, I could only pray day and night that the emperor would come to visit more often.

If the emperor is busy with government affairs..."

The Queen Mother gave a bitter smile, she looked at Zhu Xi and signaled him to ask the Emperor to leave.

Zhuxi had no choice but to salute the emperor again. She whispered to the emperor not to make the empress dowager sad again, and finally persuaded the emperor to take a step forward.

The empress dowager had turned her back, leaving only her back to the emperor. The emperor walked forward, looking back every few steps, but in the end, he didn't even get a glance from her.

The door slammed shut behind him and the emperor let out a long sigh. In the end, he couldn't make up his mind and immediately deposed the queen.

The matter dragged on like this, but the emperor did not release all the witnesses. He just detained them in the sky prison and had people watch over them every day.

Concubine Tian was very anxious and sent people to inquire around the Yangxin Palace from time to time. Unfortunately, the people around the emperor were very tight-lipped and Concubine Tian didn't get any news.

As the days passed, the emperor still did not make any move. Not only Concubine Tian, ​​but even Lingrong felt a rare sense of anxiety in their hearts.

After all, the emperor's attitude seems to be one of keeping things quiet. Could it be that even the death of Queen Chunyuan cannot shake the Queen's position?

In this case, the position of queen will really last a lifetime.

The trees outside the window had turned slightly green. Ling Rong cast her eyes towards You Ning who was running and playing outside, and her anxious heart gradually calmed down.

Because she thought of the huge mountain behind the Queen. As long as the Queen Mother was alive, the Queen would never fall.

After all, the emperor can indeed be called a filial son. If the empress dowager does not give in, he will not give forceful orders and make the empress dowager unhappy.

After all, the empress dowager was a "sickly person" and died in a fit of anger, so the emperor, as a son, was unfilial.

But things have come to this point, and it would be a shame not to give it a push.

At Fanghua's signal, Youning finally saw Lingrong outside the window. She happily called out "mother" and anxiously called out to Lingrong to go out and play with her.

Lingrong also responded with a brilliant smile. She did not continue to think about these annoying things. She responded and ran to play with Youning in chasing hydrangeas.

After all, the Queen's issue cannot be resolved overnight. The only solutions Ling Rong can think of now are to put pressure on the previous dynasty and to find a way to send the Queen Mother to the underworld to meet the late emperor.

But no matter which one, he needed to call Concubine Tian to make a good plan. The most important thing at the moment was to accompany his daughter well.

After all, children grow up quickly, and such carefree time may not last long.

Lingrong and Youning were playing when they heard their companions report that Concubine Cao was coming with Wen Yi.

Cao Qinmo's coming to Chengqian Palace was actually a bit of a surprise to Lingrong. After all, Cao Qinmo had long sided with the Queen and was busy bringing the Queen out of Jingren Palace. How could she be so "free"?

"Empress Sheng, long time no see."

"It's been a long time since we last met." Ling Rong responded to Cao Qinmo with a smile, but the next moment she looked at Wen Yi and asked gently how Wen Yi was.

Wen Yisheng was lovely and adorable. Judging from her looks alone, she was definitely the most superior one in the palace. In addition, she had a gentle and pleasant personality. Anyone who saw her would have to soften their voice when speaking to her.

Wen Yi obediently called out "Empress Sheng", and then You Ning threw her into his arms and gave her a big kiss on her pink little face.

As if frightened, Wen Yi blinked for a long time before calling out "Sister Youning".

"Wen Yi, go play with You Ning. Mother will ask Aunt Yinxiu to follow you, okay?"

Wen Yi shouted "OK" happily, holding You Ning's hand tightly, and the two little kids ran together to chase the hydrangea.

Ling Rong looked at the two little guys from behind for a long time, feeling very emotional, "It felt like You Ning was still in swaddling clothes yesterday, but I didn't expect that he could run, jump and play with Wen Yi today."

"Time flies, and soon the two sisters will have to choose their prince consorts.

Sister, please look after the good family and don’t let Youning suffer any injustice.”

"As a princess of the royal family, you have almost no say in your marriage. Isn't this what you are worried about, sister?"

Ling Rong felt worried when she thought about You Ning's future. Although the emperor promised not to let You Ning leave him too far, the emperor's words often only exist in history books and are not trustworthy at all.

"Yes, Wen Yi is growing up little by little, and my worries are also increasing little by little.

My position is not high enough, so I cannot guarantee the best future for Wen Yi."

"Sister, you've already taken the position of a concubine, but you still think it's not high enough?"

Ling Rong said jokingly, "Now that the mountain of Concubine Hua is gone, the heavy stone in your heart should have finally fallen to the ground.

Sometimes, even my younger sister wonders if my elder sister is just following the trend in Concubine Hua's affairs. "

"So my sister also suspected me before," Cao Qinmo was not as she was in Xianfu Palace, her tone was quite relaxed, "In fact, sometimes I even doubted that it was my own fault. After all, I spent countless nights wondering when this life of relying on others would end.

When she took my Wen Yi away, I wanted to attack her countless times, and it would be best if I could kill her directly. "

When Cao Qinmo talked about Concubine Hua, the resentment in her heart came to the fore, and she gritted her teeth as she spoke of the fantasies in her mind about killing Concubine Hua.

But when Wen Yi called her, she would show that gentle smile again, looking very fragmented.

"Sometimes I even feel it's a pity that I wasn't the one who killed Concubine Hua.

He was also angry that she could be buried as a concubine, causing the emperor to work day and night to find out the truth behind her death. "

Lingrong understood Cao Qinmo's state of mind very well. After all, she was like this in her previous life. She didn't want to be bullied, nor did she want to see those who bullied her stepping on her head and living happily from a high position.

"Sister, you actually told me so many heartfelt words today. I am a little flattered."

"Because even if these words are spoken, it will not have any effect on me. After all, my sister has probably seen clearly what kind of person I am."

Cao Qinmo and Ling Rong sat together, their eyes still looking in the direction of Wen Yi. The two children were having a lot of fun, it was a rare happy scene.

"I don't want to beat around the bush with you today," Cao Qinmo finally told her purpose. "How much do you know about the Queen's house arrest? Is it really because of Concubine Hua?"

"Sister, do you want to help the Queen solve the current troubles, so as to gain the Queen's apology and pave the way for Wen Yi in the future?"

Ling Rong answered irrelevantly and threw the question back to Cao Qinmo, "Sister, do you really think that the Queen is a more reliable person than Concubine Hua?"

"...I don't think so, but besides the Queen, who else in the palace can be relied on? Is it you, my sister? Or that foolish Concubine Tian who has an excellent family background."

Ling Rong fell silent. She couldn't answer Cao Qinmo's question, but Cao Qinmo keenly realized that she was related to Concubine Tian and this incident. She was indeed very smart.

"Sister, my position as assistant manager of the six palaces may sound powerful, but the things I manage are just trivial matters.

I want to hold the power of the palace tightly in my hands and don't want the queen to take power again.

But now it’s not me or anyone else who is making things difficult for the Queen, but the Emperor refuses to be the Queen and wants to get to the bottom of this matter.”

Ling Rong carefully observed every expression of Cao Qinmo, thinking about how to express herself so that this person would trust her more, "If you insist on going against the Emperor and rescuing the Empress, then I might as well show you a way out.

Go ask the Empress Dowager for help. If anyone in the harem has the most powerful words, she is the only one who can judge them.

If my sister can win the favor of the Queen Mother, there will be no need to worry about Wen Yi's future."

After Lingrong finished speaking, she also cast her gaze on the two children who were playing. Youning felt her gaze and immediately dropped the hydrangea, ran happily over and threw herself into Lingrong's arms.

"Mother, sister, ok!"

You Ning pointed at Wen Yi who was walking towards her slowly, with a sincere smile on her face, "I want to sleep with my sister!"

Before Lingrong smiled, Cao Qinmo laughed out loud. Her tone became very gentle again, and she gently touched Youning's face with her fingers.

"Does Youning like Sister Wen Yi very much?"

"I like sister, um..." Youning wanted to call someone, but she couldn't remember what to call Cao Qinmo. She hurriedly burrowed into Lingrong's arms, calling her mother over and over again.

At this time, Wen Yi also came over and was held by Cao Qinmo and sat on his lap. Her cheeks were also red, and she was obviously a little tired from running.

"Okay, Youning." Lingrong hurriedly took Youning out of her arms. She leaned forward and kissed Youning's cheek, then told her softly that this was Empress Cao and she must not forget her again.

"Sister, Youning likes Wenyi, can you take Youning to stay with us today?

Anyway, the Emperor is going to Concubine Chun's palace today, so he won't come to see you and me."
