Chapter 584: 3 feet of ice, new hatred and old grudges
Qin Yumo was so frightened at the Queen's almost crazy expression that she couldn't utter a word. Finally, she couldn't bear it anymore and fainted!
"Empress, Concubine Qin has fainted and her condition looks very bad. We should let the imperial physician take a look immediately. If there is any accident, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you and Prime Minister Qin to explain." The nanny advised in a low voice.
The queen finally regained some composure and looked at Qin Yumo with great disgust. "Drag her away to let the imperial physician take a look. Tell the imperial physician that all that matters is saving her life."
"Yes."
The nanny ordered people to carry Qin Yumo away.
The queen paced back and forth in the palace, anxiously waiting for news from the third prince.
"Gods, I pray that you can protect my son from this disaster. All the evil things were done by me alone. My son has nothing to do with it! I am willing to let all the misfortunes fall on me and I will bear it alone. My son is innocent!"
After praying to the gods, the queen weakly held on to the armrest of the chair.
"Your Majesty, please sit down and rest for a while. The Third Prince will be fine." The maid carefully supported the queen.
The queen sat on the chair, staring at one direction without focus, muttering: "Who on earth wants to do this to my son? How dare they do it outside the imperial city? How deep is the hatred between them and me?"
"Is it the Queen Mother? The only person who can be so rampant in the imperial capital, besides the ***, is the Queen Mother."
"It must be because of Concubine Cao's death. The Queen Mother's hatred has not been eliminated. Once she decided to support the Fourth Prince, she was eager to get rid of the Third Prince to clear the obstacles for the Fourth Prince. It must be like this, it must be!"
The Queen has identified the murderer.
A strong hatred suddenly burst out from his eyes.
At the beginning, the emperor was still an unpopular prince. He was made a king and sent to his fiefdom at an early stage. The empress dowager, who was the concubine of the previous emperor, also followed him to the fiefdom.
After she married into the palace, she was extremely respectful to the Queen Mother. However, the Queen Mother never looked at her well.
No matter it was windy or rainy, cold in winter or hot in summer, no matter whether she was unwell or not, even if she was pregnant, he would always visit her morning and evening, and it was a rule that he would stand every day.
He kept talking about the palace rules all day long and looked down on her in all kinds of ways.
At that time, life was so difficult. When a married woman came to her fiefdom to visit the empress dowager, the empress dowager would stuff several carts of gifts for her to take away.
***Every time he came, she had the illusion that her house had been ransacked.
Later, the emperor ascended the throne and made her the queen.
What is a queen?
The mother of a country and the master of the six palaces.
The Phoenix Seal was in her hands, but the Queen Mother oppressed her everywhere, scolded her in front of all the concubines, and did not give her any dignity.
***'s husband died, and her husband's family had military merits, so she returned to the imperial capital with honor. The empress dowager loved her daughter and wanted the best of everything.
She became the one who cleaned up the mess for the gang.
She couldn't count how much injustice she had suffered.
Later, Concubine Luo entered the palace.
Her life became even more difficult, as the Empress Dowager actually helped Concubine Luo to disperse her power and turned her into a hollow shell.
There was no affection between her and the Queen Mother, only hatred!
And the hatred is growing deeper and deeper!
If anything happened to her Third Prince, she would definitely drag the Fourth Prince and the Queen Mother to be buried with him!
……
The emperor is also waiting for news from the third prince.
"Your Majesty, there is news about the third prince!" Chao Sihai ran in quickly, gasping for breath.
"Speak!" The emperor stood up anxiously.
"The third prince was chased by an assassin to the top of a cliff, hit by an arrow, and fell off the cliff!" Chao Sihai reported truthfully.
The emperor's heart sank, "Did they find the body?"
"We haven't found him yet. Considering there is still snow in the mountains, there is a chance that the Third Prince is still alive."
"If he's alive, I want to see him in person. If he's dead, I want to see his body." The emperor ordered in a deep voice.
"Yes!" Chao Sihai immediately retreated.
At this time, the night was already deep.
The emperor walked towards the empress dowager's bedroom alone.
Compared to the dead silence in the Queen's Palace, the Queen Mother was still holding a banquet here.
Luo's accommodation has been arranged, and she will move to the palace tonight. The Queen Mother was in a good mood and invited Luo to have dinner with the Fourth Prince.
The emperor came alone, and no one announced the arrival.
When the eunuchs on duty in the Empress Dowager's palace saw the Emperor, they were so frightened that their legs went weak and they quickly bowed.
"Meet the Emperor!"
"The Emperor has arrived!"
As this announcement sounded, the noise in the house suddenly stopped.
The Queen Mother sat in her seat with no change in emotion.
Luo quickly stood up and stepped aside to prepare to salute.
Now, facing the emperor again, her mood was very complicated.
There was a trace of panic in the fourth prince's eyes, and he stood beside Luo with his head lowered.
"Greetings, Your Majesty." Luo and the Fourth Prince bowed at the same time.
The emperor walked in, his eyes swept from Luo and the fourth prince, and finally looked at the empress dowager.
"My son has met his mother."
"Your Majesty, there is no need to be so polite. Have you had your meal? If not, please have your meal with me." After the empress dowager said this, the palace maid beside her immediately rearranged the dishes and chopsticks.
The Emperor sat next to the Queen Mother.
Luo and the Fourth Prince were still kneeling on the ground, not daring to stand up without the Emperor's words.
"Your Majesty, is there any news about the third prince?" the Queen Mother asked casually.
"Just now, news came that the third prince was shot by an arrow and fell off a cliff. However, the snow in the mountains is very deep, so he should be able to survive."
"May God bless you." The Queen Mother clasped her hands together and prayed.
"Mother, did the assassination of the third prince have anything to do with you?" the emperor asked directly.
The Queen Mother's face suddenly darkened. "What does the Emperor mean? Do you suspect that I want to kill the Third Prince?"
"I just want to ask you in advance, and I hope you can tell me the truth. No matter who did it, even if they used assassins, we can find out the truth."
The emperor's words made the Fourth Prince tremble uncontrollably.
Mrs. Luo was shocked when she found out that her son was not normal.
Could it be that this matter is related to my son?
"Your Majesty, since we have spoken frankly between mother and son, there is no need to hide anything. If I wanted to kill the third prince, I would not do it at this time." The Queen Mother said directly.
"Okay, with what you said, mother, I feel relieved." The emperor stood up and left.
Before the queen had even walked far, the queen mother was so angry that she overturned the table.
The dishes scattered around, making a thrilling sound.
The emperor heard the noise and stopped for a moment.
"An unborn prince is not the emperor's son! It doesn't matter if he dies! The third prince was assassinated, and there is no evidence to point to me as the culprit, but the emperor is here to call me to task first!"
"Next time, His Majesty doesn't have to come here in person, just let Lu Hongru come directly! I'll also take a look at what the prisons in Daxia look like! The Queen Mother has never been imprisoned before, and there will never be another like her!"
