[Crossing the Book] The Villain Regent's Substitute Princess

"You asked me why I killed your mother and concubine?" The queen mother in death row stared at Chen Chonglin with a sneer, "Because your father loves her! Isn't this reason enough?"

"You said that the father loves my mother and concubine?" Chen Chonglin was very surprised when he heard the words, "Why did I never see it? He obviously has very little time to see our mother and child!"

"If he didn't love Concubine Lan, why would he give birth to his first son with her, which is you!"

"..." Chen Chonglin still had an unbelievable expression on his face, "Could it be that because the concubine mother is the mother of the eldest son of the father, do you have to kill her?!"

"Of course it's not just because of this! Do you know that your father has the habit of recording his mood. Now his manuscripts should still be in his bedroom."

Luo Qiuyi knew that some ancients also had the habit of keeping diaries.Unexpectedly, Chen Chonglin's father is one of them.

"manuscript?"

The late emperor's relics were sorted out by the Empress Dowager, and some were sealed up in his bedroom as they were.Therefore, Chen Chonglin really didn't know about it.

"Then you take me to look for it now." Anyway, she is a dying woman, and Chen Chonglin is not afraid that she will be able to play tricks after leaving the death row.

"Go and go."

The queen mother was escorted to the late emperor's bedroom, and she took out a large stack of yellowed paper from a cabinet and handed it to Chen Chonglin.

Chen Chonglin casually opened a page, only to see that it said: "Today Lin'er will call me Emperor Father. In fact, I would rather hear him call me 'Daddy', but in the royal family, there is nothing I can do about it. Lin'er It’s so cute, I can’t get enough of it every day, and I can’t get enough of it. But those old guys always tell me that it’s raining, don’t stay at Laner’s place every day, especially don’t neglect the queen...It’s really annoying.”

Chen Chonglin could not help but stay where he was.

He had never felt that his father had such a strong love for him!

"I don't know..." He turned his head to look at Luo Qiuyi, his voice choked with sobs, "I never knew about this!"

Luo Qiuyi's eyes were also red, and all he could do was hold Chen Chonglin's other hand that was not holding the diary.

In fact, according to common sense, when a person has children for the first time, of course he will love them very much.

However, Chen Chonglin's father insisted on covering up this love tightly.

"You don't know? Then I don't know! I don't know why when I gave birth to his second son, he didn't have such a loving father! Could it be that I, Cui Chuchu, don't deserve it?!" At this moment , Even the empress dowager's eye circles were a little red.

"..." Chen Chonglin ignored him, and continued to turn backwards with trembling hands.

"I seldom go to Lan'er's place recently. I really can't help it. That jealous woman has been staring at their mother and son all day long, and she doesn't know what to do. I hope these women in the harem will forget about their mother and son. I have already Now that the crown prince has been established, what are they going to do?"

Only then did Chen Chonglin realize that his father's deliberate alienation was to protect their mother and child!

"Am I jealous??" The queen mother said again, "All I want is my son to be a prince?? I also want my husband's love!! Am I wrong?! Tell me Where is the mistake!! Do you know how I felt like a bolt from the blue when I accidentally saw these things?!"

"..." For the first time, Luo Qiu felt a little sympathy for the Queen Mother.

Maybe she was not wrong, the first emperor was not wrong, and Concubine Lan was not wrong.What was wrong was only the royal family that could not tolerate the existence of true feelings.

"I just want Concubine Lan to die!!" The queen mother continued to shout frantically.

"Shut up!!" Chen Chonglin slapped the Queen Mother heavily on the face.Anyway, he is going to do such things as "killing his mother", so is he still afraid of doing something to the Queen Mother? "Don't you think that if you kill my mother and concubine, father will like you?!"

"Hahahaha, of course he won't!" The Queen Mother laughed wildly, "He has hated me ever since! But so what? What can he do to me? I'm not happy, and he can't even think about it! Haha Haha, do you think he really loves your mother that much?! Then read what he wrote...Come on, I'll help you read it!"

As she spoke, the queen mother took the paper in Chen Chonglin's hand, turned to a certain page at the back, and threw it in front of Chen Chonglin.

"I really hate that woman! But I can't do anything about her! What kind of Ninth Five-Year Lord am I, the Lord of the World?! I don't even have the ability to avenge the woman I love!"

Chen Chonglin knew that since his father's time, the phenomenon of foreign relatives' dictatorship has been very serious, and almost all Chao Gang has been controlled by Cui Chuchu and his father and brother.This is also one of the reasons why he must reverse the situation and seize power.

"Yesterday Sui'er came to question me why I ignored his mother's concubine's unjust death... In order to make him stop asking about this matter, I could only slap him and told him that his mother's concubine died of illness Yes, don't think about it all day long... how did he know, my heart was bleeding when I hit him! What I really want to kill is myself! This useless self!"

"...Ah, you're right..." Chen Chonglin looked up at the Queen Mother, with a sneer of despair on his face, "He really doesn't love my mother much. He probably loves my mother more. Otherwise, he can cut you down with a knife regardless of everything!"

"Yeah, your father is such a cowardly and useless man. Just like the prince I gave birth to him. But do you know? I still, really love that man...but the most ironic thing in the world The thing is, no matter how useless a man is, he will not like a woman who is stronger than him. He will only like a woman who is weak and looks up to him like your mother.

I know, you won't let me go.So can you promise me one thing?Just kill me right here.Let me die in the bed of the man I've loved and hated all my life. "

"..." Chen Chonglin was silent for a while.

"..." Luo Qiuyi felt that Chen Chonglin was holding his hand so hard that it hurt a little.But what hurt more was his heart.He couldn't tell whether his heart was hurting for Chen Chonglin, for Concubine Lan and the late emperor, or if part of his heart was also hurting for the Queen Mother.

"Okay, I'll help you." Finally, Chen Chonglin nodded, "Come here, serve the poisoned wine."

Immediately, someone brought poisoned wine.

The queen mother picked up the wine glass without hesitation and drank it down.

Soon, her internal organs began to burst into severe pain like tearing.

"Cui Chuchu, I specially prepared this for you. Don't worry, you won't die so soon, you will spend at least three hours in torment.

Three hours... I still think it's too fast.Do you know that my mother and concubine have been suffering from illness for three whole months?I saw her getting more and more haggard but helpless, so it was a kind of suffering! "

"..." The queen mother at this moment has no energy to answer his words.

She just felt that all the organs in her body were crushed one by one, and the pain was beyond words, so she couldn't help but let out a scream.

And her hand tightly clutched a sachet on her body.

Chen Chonglin suddenly knew why she was obsessed with the sachet—it was also a gift from the late emperor.

Chen Chonglin originally thought that watching the Queen Mother dying slowly would be the greatest enjoyment in the world.

But he suddenly didn't want to read it that much.

Holding Luo Qiuyi's hand, he turned and left his father's palace, and returned to his palace.

Then, Chen Chonglin was in a daze in his room.Luo Qiuyi also accompanied him in a daze.

Three hours later, they heard the news: the queen mother was dead.

Chen Chonglin originally wanted to order her body to be abandoned in the wilderness, and go to the mass grave to accompany Caiping who was killed by her.

However, in the end, Chen Chonglin still let the queen mother enter the royal ancestral hall, and was buried with the late emperor according to the rules.

"That man, he is not worthy of the love of my mother and concubine. He is just right for Cui Chuchu." This is what Chen Chonglin told Luo Qiuyi.

Luo Qiuyi didn't answer, but threw herself into his arms and sobbed.

"...Qiu Yi, what's wrong with you?" Chen Chonglin was stunned.

"I'm so sad! I'm so sad about what's happening now!"

The cold father in Chen Chonglin's memory turned out to be deeply in love with him and his mother and concubine.It's just that he doesn't have the ability to love.Now that he knew all this at first glance, the ups and downs in Chen Chonglin's heart, how can there be only three words "he is not worthy"?

Whether it's love or hate, he has no chance to express it to his father.

"Chonglin, I know you want to cry too, but you won't allow yourself to cry...Then let me cry for you" "...fool." Chen Chonglin revealed With a warm smile, "Qiu Yi, I don't want to cry. Thinking of having you by my side, I just want to smile happily."

Hearing this, Luo Qiu burst into a tearful smile in Chen Chonglin's arms.

"Qiu Yi, do you know? Ever since my mother and concubine left, my father and I have had a falling out, and no one treats me tenderly. There are only so-called relatives around me who are plotting to put me to death... ..so at that time, when I saw Jun Miao taking care of me so tenderly, I just wanted to indulge in that long-lost warmth

But later, in fact, deep down in my heart, I already knew that Jun Miao would only do that to all injured people.

But you are different.When I was infected with the plague and you took care of me non-stop, I opened my eyes and saw you smiling gently at me, and I remembered Jun Miao at that time..."

"Oh." Luo Qiuyi immediately left Chen Chonglin's arms.Sure enough, is he just a perfect stand-in?

"Qiu Yi, don't be angry, just listen to me... I didn't realize until that moment what the so-called love I have for Jun Miao is. And that kind of tenderness has already existed in my heart Beside one by one, and it is really gentle only for me. After I recovered from my illness, didn’t I see you take care of other plague patients like that?”

"Oh, at that time, because Imperial Physician He didn't allow Jun Miao to contact patients? I saw that he was bored every day, so I simply bored him with him."

"I don't mean to blame you." Chen Chonglin smiled, "Do you understand what I want to say?"

"...It seems that...you are confessing your love to me?"

"Yeah. Look at you, you are usually smart, but you are so slow when it comes to emotions." Chen Chonglin hugged Luo Qiuyi again, "So what do you think of me?"

"I……"

Luo Qiuyi had to think about the question that Lin Junmiao had mentioned to him before.

"Should also... like you... right?"

"How can you be so uncertain?" Chen Chonglin frowned.
