Chapter 266: The Truth About Frailty

The Queen Mother listened to Xie Rongjing's words, and a strange smile appeared on her face, "The first emperor did favor your mother, this favor is unmatched in the harem, the world thinks that the first emperor fell in love with your mother at first sight, but only the mourning family knows that the reason why your mother can get this favor is just because her eyes are very similar to that woman." ”

"So my mother has always been just a stand-in?"

"It is said that it is a stand-in, it is better to say that your mother is actually a tool used by the emperor to stimulate that woman, for a few years, the emperor did not know why he had a big conflict with that woman, the woman locked herself in the courtyard all day long and refused to see the emperor, the first emperor went to the door every day to guard, and then the woman did not know what means she used to escape from the palace guards, the first emperor has not been able to find that woman, and your mother was not long after the emperor lost that woman, and the whole person was about to go crazy when she took a fancy to favor and was named a concubine."

Xie Rongjing was shocked, and he asked, "What about my mother'......s ordination?"

When the Queen Mother heard him ask, she looked at him with pity, and replied: "Until now, the mourning family will no longer deceive you, your mother is not a monk, she loved the emperor very much, and always thought that the emperor also loved her deeply, so when the emperor brought the woman back to the palace, and was cold to her, she couldn't stand it for a while and ran to question the emperor, but she learned that she was just a joke from beginning to end, and she was stimulated, once in the imperial garden, while no one was paying attention, she pushed the woman into the water, and the woman did not die, She herself was beaten into the cold palace by the angry emperor, and it didn't take long for her to go crazy and commit suicide. ”

Xie Rongjing's face became very ugly, although he didn't have deep feelings for his mother, but when he suddenly heard that she had ended up like this, he couldn't help but feel sad in his heart.

"So my father was lying to me back then, he told me that my mother was a monk, I was young at the time, and I always believed what he said, but I didn't expect ......"

"The reason why the first emperor wants to lie to you is that he doesn't want you to know the truth, you are his only remaining prince, and he must inherit the throne, he is afraid that you hate that woman, and he will retaliate against her in the future, your father is dying, and he is also working hard to find a way to live for that woman."

"That woman ......" Xie Rongjing paused here before continuing: "After my father died, where did she go?" ”

"The mourners don't know." The Queen Mother replied: "On the day the emperor died, the entire palace was in chaos, no one paid attention to what she did, and by the time everyone came back to their senses, she had completely disappeared from the palace. ”

"What is the Queen Mother looking for her to do?" Xie Rongjing couldn't help asking.

"What for?" The Queen Mother's expression became a little hideous, and she replied in a heavy tone: "The mourning family hates this woman very much, and I can't wait to cut her with a thousand knives." ”

Xie Rongjing was a little surprised by the queen mother's reaction, although that woman occupied her father's heart back then, it would indeed make the queen mother jealous, but his father had died for many years, and the queen mother had become the most noble woman in the harem, and she should have let go of her past grievances, why did she still have such a bitter hatred after so many years.

"Why does the concubine hate her so much?"

"Because this woman killed my emperor!" The Queen Mother spoke hoarsely.

Xie Rongjing didn't expect such a past, he asked: "Didn't the little prince choke to death by eating pastry and getting stuck in his throat?" ”

"The emperor is the little baby of the mourning family, the mourning family holds it in his hand for fear of falling, and he is afraid of melting in his mouth, and the mourning family orders his palace maids to keep an eye on him at all times, how can he be choked by pastries?"

"That little prince ......"

Before Xie Rongjing's words were finished, the Queen Mother directly interrupted his words, her chest rose and fell violently, and she said word by word: "The mourning family will always remember how the emperor died, that day the emperor took the little prince to the Qianqing Palace to play, the mourning family thought that the emperor missed the emperor, and immediately sent someone to send the emperor over, but the mourning family didn't expect him to let the woman take the emperor away, and fed him poisonous pastries, the emperor of the mourning family was poisoned by that woman......"

The Queen Mother cried when she said this, she was trembling all over, Xie Rongjing was afraid that she would stand unsteadily and fall down, so he quickly reached out and helped her sit down, Xie Rongjing took out a handkerchief to wipe the tears of the Queen Mother, he asked: "That woman killed the little prince, and the father didn't deal with her?" ”

The Queen Mother sneered, "Your father and the emperor are confused, that woman just cried and said that the poison was not given by her, he believed it, and forgave the woman, he announced to the outside world that the emperor of the mourning family was choked to death by the pastry, and the mourning family could not disobey the holy order, so the true cause of the emperor's death could only be covered up in this way." ”

The Queen Mother clenched her fists angrily, her long nails sank directly into the flesh, and because she used too much force, the long nails of her index finger were directly broken, and the thin blood was left along Zhifeng.

"The last time the mourning family saw the emperor, his body had completely stiffened and became extremely cold, his whole face was pitch black because of poisoning, his eyes were left with dark red blood, his face was very hideous, and his entire facial features were distorted together. The emperor died very painfully, but the mourning family could not avenge him, the mourning family really hated, if they could, the mourning family would like to cut that woman with a thousand knives. ”

Xie Rongjing listened to the Queen Mother's tearful story, and he finally understood why there were rumors in the palace that the little prince was poisoned by her mother, and the little prince was indeed poisoned to death, but only the person concerned knew who the poisoner was.

"Queen Mother, the deceased is gone, the living are like this, you mourn!"

Xie Rongjing comforted, "Although the little prince failed to grow up under your knees and give you filial piety, but thanks to the queen mother's grace for many years of nurturing, and single-handedly helped me to the throne, I am grateful for the queen mother's kindness, and in the future, I will also treat the queen mother as my own mother, in order to comfort the queen mother's regrets for many years." ”

The Queen Mother listened to Xie Rongjing's words, her heart was a little moved, she calmed down for a while, and then spoke: "To be honest, the mourning family doesn't like your mother, although she is the younger sister of the mourning family, but from childhood to adulthood, whether it is appearance, personality or talent, the mourning family can't compare to her, obviously the mourning family is the eldest daughter of the family, but she oppresses the mourning family in everything, she committed suicide in the cold palace back then, and the mourning family has no turmoil in her heart."

The Queen Mother said and glanced at Xie Rongjing again, before continuing: "The reason why the mourning family will take you under their knees is that on the one hand, the mourning family wants to have a support, and on the other hand, the mourning family went to her dormitory on the night after your mother's death. ”
