Chapter 600 The Emperor dies
Qin Zhao's voice faded.
Concubine Shu in her previous life did not live long, so she did not take Concubine Shu seriously.
She didn't know how Concubine Shu died. If she had the chance to go back to her previous life, she might be able to ask Xiao Ce about it.
As for Baozhu's worry, she knew it was justified, but she didn't want to change the status quo.
"It's good that Liang Di has a good idea. I don't want to see Liang Di look at Concubine Shu. Besides, Liang Di doesn't live with Concubine Shu. As long as His Highness likes Liang Di, that's all." Baozhu was easily persuaded by Qin Zhao.
She felt that a woman like Liangdi should not bow to anyone, otherwise she would not be Qin Liangdi.
Even though Concubine Shu is the biological mother of His Highness the Crown Prince, she still feels that Qin Liangdi should not be wronged by Concubine Shu.
"Let's talk about the future in the future. Who knows what the future will be like. Thinking about it so much is just mediocre." Qin Zhao didn't want to bring up this annoying topic again.
She felt that she was drunk now, but everyone seemed to be thinking more deeply than she was, and they were all thinking about what would happen after Xiao Ce ascended the throne.
Isn’t it that the emperor is not dead yet?
At this moment, she just felt that the emperor's popularity was really not very good. It seemed that everyone was longing for his early death.
I don't know if it was because of public expectations, but early the next morning I heard that the emperor's condition was getting worse.
After that, Concubine Shu rushed to the Yangxin Hall and stayed there for a long time. During this period, Concubine Wu also wanted to go to the Yangxin Hall, but was blocked by the guards of the Yangxin Hall.
Baoyu told Qin Zhao all this news. After learning the news, Qin Zhao asked: "Is it the emperor's intention or the concubine Shu's intention?"
"What do you mean?" Baoyu didn't understand for a moment.
"Is it Concubine Shu's intention or the Emperor's intention to block Concubine Wu from the Yangxin Hall?" Qin Zhao asked again.
Only then did Baoyu come to his senses and hurriedly replied: "Of course it is Concubine Shu's wish. How can the emperor have the energy to control such trivial matters right now?"
"Really?" Qin Zhao's eyes flashed slightly.
I say this is normal, but it's not normal either.
Before the emperor died, Concubine Shu took the guards of the Yangxin Hall for her own use, and even exceeded the rules by blocking Concubine Wu from the Yangxin Hall. You must know that Concubine Wu has a higher status than Concubine Shu, so what qualifications does Concubine Shu have?
Blocking Concubine Wu from entering the Yangxin Palace?
Concubine Shu didn't look like such a domineering person before, but her behavior seemed like that of Concubine Wu.
This time, the two of them happened to fall apart.
"Concubine Wu has been arrogant for half her life. The emperor was seriously ill, so Concubine Shu rode on Concubine Wu's head. It was so happy." Baoyu's thoughts were not as profound as Qin Zhao's, and he only expressed his own feelings.
"I'm more curious about why Concubine Shu blocked Concubine Wu. If the emperor is critically ill, Concubine Wu is qualified to see the emperor, right?" Qin Zhao frowned.
Baoyu was speechless for a moment, but Liangdi's words seemed to make sense.
If the emperor didn't have much time, he would definitely meet Concubine Wu, whom he cared about most in his life, but Concubine Shu blocked Concubine Wu, which meant that Concubine Wu might not see the emperor for the last time.
"Go and inquire about the situation of Yangxin Hall. By the way, where is His Highness?" Qin Zhao asked again.
"His Royal Highness was attending the morning court earlier. After hearing the news, he must have rushed to Yangxin Hall." Baoyu responded and continued to inquire about the news.
Qin Zhao told Baoyu to be careful and asked Baoyu to accompany Baoyu. The two of them should not be separated. After the two Baoyu agreed, they left Wangyueju.
The two of them had just walked away when Luo Fengyi suddenly ran over and asked: "Is the emperor in bad condition?"
Qin Zhao shook his head: "I don't know either."
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard messy footsteps getting closer and closer. She listened carefully and realized that these were the footsteps of guards, and there were many people.
If she was still thinking about whether the emperor could survive this test before, seeing this battle, she also understood one thing, the emperor was really in trouble.
After a while, Qiu Shui hurried over, and Wu Xirou also arrived at Wangyue Residence, walking in a hurry.
"Liang Di, don't panic. The guards outside are all sent by His Highness to protect Liang Di. They don't have any malicious intentions." Qiu Shui explained his intention.
"I know. Your Highness is still in the Yangxin Hall, right?" Qin Zhao asked.
"Exactly, Your Highness can't leave at the Yangxin Palace. Prince An rushed into the palace earlier. His Royal Highness the Third Prince is also rushing to the Yangxin Palace. There are also other princesses..." Qiu Shui didn't finish what he said.
Everyone understands it.
The emperor is dying and may be giving his last words.
But what Qin Zhao is concerned about is why Concubine Shu blocked Concubine Wu from the Yangxin Hall. During that time, what was Concubine Shu doing in the Yangxin Hall?
Concubine Shu was the only one in front of the emperor at that time. Concubine Shu must have done something.
She didn't know why, but she always felt that Concubine Shu had some purpose in staying alone in front of the emperor.
It's a pity that she knew it too late, otherwise she could have gone to Yangxin Hall to hear what Concubine Shu had done.
When Wu Xirou saw Qin Zhao pacing back and forth, she thought she was nervous, so she comforted Qin Zhao and said, "Sister, don't worry, everything will be fine."
Although everyone knows that the emperor does not have much time, they are all waiting for this shoe to fall.
She was somewhat excited in her heart, because the man she admired would soon become the master of the world. As long as no other accidents happened, Xiao Ce would ascend the throne and become the emperor of Daqi.
Only a man like Xiao Ce can be worthy of the throne.
"I'm not worried, His Highness can handle everything." Qin Zhao replied slowly.
She just felt that she had made a mistake.
Because Concubine Shu died early in her previous life and she was Xiao Ce's biological mother, she never took Concubine Shu seriously. To be precise, she never thought that Concubine Shu would be her enemy.
Even Wu Xirou discovered something. In the future, when Xiao Ce ascends the throne, Concubine Shu will become the Queen Mother. In addition, Concubine Shu hates her very much. If she enters the harem in the future, her life will be difficult.
Perhaps her life in the East Palace was so comfortable that her vigilance became lower.
While Qin Zhao was thinking wildly, time was passing by bit by bit.
I don't know how long it took, but everyone knelt down on the ground, and Qin Zhao followed suit in a daze.
She suddenly realized that the emperor had passed away and the capital was under martial law!
What happened later had no sense of reality for her, and it had little to do with her.
I only heard that Xiao Ce ascended the throne in front of the late emperor's spiritual throne, but it would still take some time before he officially ascended the throne. After the late emperor passed away, the next thing to do was of course the funeral of the late emperor.
Later, Wangyueju was guarded by many more guards. Wu Xirou and Luo Fengyi were with her. Later, Zuo Liangyuan also came. Wangyueju had never been so lively.
Everyone took off their fancy clothes, put on plain clothes, and faced the sky with bare faces.
Later, Zhang Jixiang came to Wangyueju and asked everyone to go back to their own residences.
Because the late emperor passed away, Xiao Ce, the acting emperor who had not yet formally ascended the throne, was busy and could not see her at this time.
Several days passed and Qin Zhao did not see Xiao Ce.
