Chapter 438: The Great Prince Dies
Wei Jingyao hadn't spoken since just now, he stepped forward and probed the pulse of the eldest prince, which had stopped beating.
"Shen'er...... He's gone. Wei Jingyao withdrew his hand like an electric shock and took two steps back.
For a while, he couldn't tell what he was feeling now, although this child was not born to Xie Fuyao.
However, in the past three years, I have watched him grow up little by little, and my feelings for him have long been inseparable.
Looking at the child assassin who called his father and emperor lying there lifelessly, Wei Jingyao couldn't say what he felt in his heart.
"No! no way, he was still calling me the queen mother just now, how could it be, how could he die, no, no......"
The entire pool of Taiye echoed with the heart-rending cry of Jinxi.
Xie Fuyao collapsed in place, letting the cold water drip down his body, forming a puddle around him.
"Your Majesty, please ask the emperor to be the master of the concubines, and ask the emperor to avenge the dead children of the concubines. ”
Na Jinxi suddenly calmed down, knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily.
"I beg the emperor to pull Concubine Ying into the Criminal Division on the charge of murdering the emperor's heir, interrogate her carefully, and give her justice. ”
"The emperor's mother, I didn't harm the prince......"
Xie Fuyao knew that his words were so pale and powerless at the moment, and no one would believe what he could do if he said it.
"Concubine Ying, this palace will let you do everything, except for the queen's position, no matter what you do, this palace has not intervened, just because the emperor likes you, but why do you want to take away my child, take away my only flesh and blood, why do you ......"
Na Jinxi walked towards Xie Fuyao step by step and slapped her in the face.
Xie Fuyao took this slap stiffly, she knew that she was not qualified to hide, if she wasn't so close to the eldest prince, he probably wouldn't be affected by herself.
"Enough!" Wei Jingyao said coldly, "Come on, the queen is tired, send her back to Qingning Palace and have a good rest." ”
"Your Majesty, do you really want to protect Xie Fuyao here, even if your child dies, can you not care?"
That Jin Xi broke away from the palace maid beside her, changed her gentle image on weekdays, and looked directly at Wei Jingyao.
"The death of the eldest prince, I will find out, as for the queen, let's go back to the palace first. ”
Wei Jingyao beckoned, and Jin Xi was taken down, and finally, he fell on Xie Fuyao and spoke slowly.
"Send Concubine Ying to Mingcui Palace to change her clothes, and then take her to Yong'an Palace, I will interrogate carefully. ”
Xie Fu's hands and feet were cold and she had no intuition, letting the palace people drag her away, she didn't dare to look up at Wei Jingyao's eyes, she was afraid that if she looked at it, she would be uncomfortable in her heart.
The Queen Mother's eyes narrowed slightly, and she looked at Zhu'er not far behind her, this matter is not so simple, if it is really Concubine Shu, she will definitely not spare her life this time.
The originally grand flower-viewing banquet ended in the drowning of the eldest prince, and the atmosphere in the palace suddenly fell silent, and everyone became cautious.
It wasn't until she soaked in the hot water that Xie Fuyao's body temperature gradually returned, and she hugged her arms tightly, unwilling to remember what had just happened.
But Wei Jingyao is still waiting for him in Yong'an Palace, and the real murderer has not yet been caught.
I can't forget what happened just now, not only can't I forget, but I also have to think about every detail and think clearly about the real murderer.
Although he was reluctant in his heart, Xie Fuyao still stepped into Yong'an Palace, unlike the original bright lights, only one candle was lit in Yong'an Palace today.
As the door opened, the candle flame danced wildly, illuminating the entire room in a flickering light.
Wei Jingyao was sitting on the steps under the dragon chair at the moment, half-leaning on the table, not knowing what he was thinking.
Xie Fuyao walked to the front of the hall step by step, and with each step she felt as if she was walking barefoot on the tip of a knife.
"The concubine has seen the emperor. Xie Fuyao lifted his dress and knelt on the ground straight, never looking up.
After a long time, she heard Wei Jingyao's slightly heavy tone, "Come here!"
For a while, Xie Fuyao didn't know whether he should stand up and walk over, or walk over on his knees, at this time, Wei Jingyao should hate himself very much.
At the moment when Xie Fuyao hesitated, he suddenly looked up and found that the assassin Wei Jingyao was standing in front of him, looking at him condescendingly.
Because he was facing the candle flame, his whole face was half bright and half dark, and he looked a little cloudy.
He raised his right hand and touched the palm print on Xie Fuyao's cheek, "Does it still hurt?"
Xie Fu shook his head and didn't speak, just looked at Wei Jingyao quietly, looking at the sadness and pain in his eyes.
"Don't kneel, beware of hurting yourself. Wei Jingyao squatted down and was level with Xie Fuyao, "Sit with me for a while, I'm so tired now." ”
"Don't you doubt me?" Xie Fuyao was a little overwhelmed by Wei Jingyao's sudden concern.
"Ah Shao, you are my wife, how can I doubt you, the queen is just angry and confused, don't mind. ”
Wei Jingyao sighed silently, and stretched out his hand to pull Xie Fuyao up.
Since Xie Fuyao was injured by the sword, he was fundamentally injured, and Cui Chen once told Xie Fuyao to avoid being injured and cold.
Wei Jingyao hugged Xie Fuyao to the soft couch, covered her whole body with a thin blanket, and then lay in her arms.
Xie Fuyao watched Wei Jingyao take care of himself in every detail, and his heart trembled slightly.
Thank you for your unconditional trust, just because I am your wife.
Xie Fuyao asked himself, if he and Wei Jingyao changed their positions today, in the face of such a scene, he might not have this trust in him.
"Ah Shao, in fact, I am so sad, but in front of them, I can only be cold-hearted, and I can't even have sadness. ”
Xie Fuyao didn't know how to comfort Wei Jingyao, so he could only gently stroke his back.
"Ah, do you know? This is the child in the palace, like this when I was a child, in order to prevent me from being poisoned before I grow up. Wei Jingyao muttered.
"My mother would add trace amounts of toxins to my diet from a young age to make me resist, but I didn't want my children to do the same. ”
Xie Fuyao's heart was shocked, she never thought that Wei Jingyao's childhood was like this, but even so, he always had that kindness in his heart.
It is precisely because he is used to seeing these intrigues that he hates those scheming women, and perhaps this is why he chose to help himself in the first place.
"I don't want the whole palace to be so eerie and terrifying, and I don't want my children to grow up and kill each other because of the throne. ”
Wei Jingyao shook his head self-deprecatingly as he spoke, "Ah Shao, do you think I'm ridiculous." ”
