Chapter 16 Kill the Emperor and Become the Queen Mother (16)

Nan Yue frowned, and when Xiao Jinnian saw the person coming, his expression changed as well, and he murmured, "Mother?"

Banxia followed in and hurriedly tried to pull Lady Zhao out, but the mad Lady Zhao was so strong that she couldn't pull her out at all. She was pushed away and fell to the ground, hitting her lower back on the door sill...

She gasped in pain and was unable to get up for a long time. Having followed the empress into the palace for such a long time, and as the head maid of Fengyi Palace and the empress's personal servant, this was the first time that Banxia had met such an unreasonable shrew.

In just a short period of time, the palace servants who heard the noise had already quietly gathered around...

Lady Zhao’s hair was disheveled because of the argument with Banxia. When she saw the two people in the palace, she was different from her arrogance when facing Banxia. She rolled her eyes, knelt down with a plop, crawled in front of Nanyue, and begged with tears in her eyes: “Empress, please don’t take my son! You can ask for anything! Even my life, but please don’t take my son!”

Seeing his mother in such an embarrassed and pitiful state, Xiao Jinnian felt distressed and puzzled. He tugged at her sleeve and asked, "Mother, what are you talking about?"

What do you mean by snatching? It was obviously his will. Besides, it's not like he can't see her in the future. The Queen even allowed him to continue calling her mother.

He didn't know how his mother knew about this...

Lady Zhao asked him in a trembling voice: "Jinnian, does the Queen want to keep you as her own?"

Xiao Jinnian nodded and answered with difficulty: "...Yes."

Lady Zhao burst into tears. She hugged her son and asked with a sob, "Are you going to leave your mother?"

Xiao Jinnian shook his head without even thinking, "Of course not."

His mother gave birth to him and raised him. No matter how bad she treated him, she was still his mother. Moreover...

His mother was so gentle yesterday, making him feel the rare maternal love.

How could he want to leave his mother?

"Mother, the Queen is a very good person, she..."

Before Xiao Jinnian could finish her words, Concubine Zhao interrupted her excitedly: "Jinnian, mother only has you. How can you bear to abandon mother and go to find the queen, just because mother can't give you fine clothes and delicious food..."

She stroked Xiao Jinnian's cheek, "I remember how wrinkled you were when you were born. I remember the first time you called me mother. I was so happy at that time, but I didn't expect that in just five years..."

His mother's tears made Xiao Jinnian feel uncomfortable. He had never disliked his mother, but...

"We have been dependent on each other for five years. I risked my life to give birth to my son. I raised him bit by bit until he was five years old. Why would someone be so cruel as to take him away from me..."

Concubine Zhao was crying, as if she was questioning the heavens, but her words were clearly accusing the Queen.

Banxia stood up shakily, shocked. According to what Concubine Zhao said, Her Majesty... wanted to raise a fifth prince?

No wonder!

Thinking about it this way, what the Queen has done recently makes sense.

Concubine Zhao looked up at the young queen who was sitting at the top and showed no emotion, and cried even louder, "Queen, you are still young and can give birth to your own child! Please don't take my son away! Please! Queen!"

Seeing that Nan Yue was still unmoved, she gritted her teeth and said, "I am not favored, and I only have Jinnian as my son. Without Jinnian, I can't live anymore. If you insist on taking my son away, then I will, then..."

Nan Yue raised her eyebrows. After watching the show for such a long time, she finally said, "What do you think?"

Lady Zhao looked around, as if she had made up her mind, and let go of Xiao Jinnian in her arms, saying loudly: "Then I will die here!"

As she said that, she stood up and rushed over to hit the shelf with vases next to her...

"Wait a minute." Nan Yue said.

Concubine Zhao stopped and she knew that the Queen would not let her die.

If she forced her concubines to death, then this queen would be a vicious woman despised by everyone!

"A shelf won't kill anyone. I quite like that vase, so don't break it." Nan Yue said lightly.

She raised her hand and pointed her white finger at the wall on one side. "Go over there and hit it quickly. If it doesn't kill him, hit it again. It should be dead in two hits."

Lady Zhao, who was waiting for her to speak out to stop him, said:?

She staggered, her face looking even uglier. She pressed her chest and said in pain, "Your Majesty, must you have Jinnian? You took Jinnian away, just like you took away a piece of my flesh! Your Majesty!"

Nan Yue: "Stop talking nonsense, just hit it."

Lady Zhao: “…”

Things have developed to this point, she can only bite the bullet and continue acting...

Fortunately, when she was halfway through, Xiao Jinnian finally reacted, rushed over and hugged her legs tightly, crying in panic, "Mother, mother, please don't commit suicide! I don't want to follow the queen! I want mother! I only want mother! Mother, please don't commit suicide!"

Concubine Zhao was already sweating from fear. She stopped and fell to the ground. She hugged Xiao Jinnian and cried loudly, with some sincerity and sincerity, "My son! It's not me who wants to die, it's the Queen who forced me to do it!"

Both mother and son burst into tears.

Emotions are contagious. Seeing this scene, I believe that anyone with sentimental feelings would be unable to help but shed tears for the love between mother and child.

Outside the palace, some palace maids couldn't help but wipe their tears. They thought of their mothers and felt that the queen was an evil person for stealing someone else's son.

Banxia supported her bruised waist and walked to Nanyue's side, her eyes full of guilt. It was all her fault for not stopping Lady Zhao and ruining the Empress's plan...

Nan·Evil·No Emotion·Yue supported her head with one hand, quietly watching the deep love between mother and son in front of her. When their crying gradually subsided, she called out, "Xiao Jinnian."

Xiao Jinnian's body trembled. He didn't know if it was his illusion, but he found that his mother's voice was particularly cold.

He looked over with his eyes swollen from crying, "...Mother?"

Nan Yue exhaled lightly, her tone was a little slow, and every word was heard clearly by him, "Do you want to come under my name?"

The same question, he agreed before, but now...

Xiao Jinnian hesitated.

He looked at his mother who was still sobbing and in a state of embarrassment, and then at the queen who was wearing a calm expression and gorgeous clothes...

On one side is the mother who gave birth to him and raised him, and on the other side is the queen who taught him skills.

Xiao Jinnian, who was only five years old, had never faced such a difficult choice. He was so confused that he didn't know what to do. He felt that no matter what he chose, it was wrong.

"Xiao Jinnian, answer me!" Nan Yue's voice became a little heavier.

Concubine Zhao was so frightened that she sobbed again and called him softly, "Jinnian..."

Xiao Jinnian stood there, his face turned pale, his mind was in a mess, "I, I..."

He had never been so eager to have his second brother by his side. He would definitely analyze the best way for him...

Nan Yue has lost her patience. It is okay for him to choose his mother. People have feelings and it is normal for them not to give up their mothers. She will think of another way, just like the previous arrangement. People like Concubine Zhao are not difficult to deal with. She will be very happy if she is given some wealth and glory.

But he shouldn't be so hesitant and couldn't even come up with a definite answer!
