Emperor Ming Yuan continued: "Furthermore, with your intelligence, how could you not know why I betrothed the princess to Leng Si? But you blocked it, opposed the marriage, prevented me from implementing national policies, and finally even took the princess hostage in Qingyu Palace.
, it hurts the princess’s appearance, and even more hurts the crown princess. You said you want to negotiate terms with me, does this terms also have something to do with the Su family? Every bit of your plan is not for your children. You are thinking in your mouth and heart.
It is always the name of the Su family, a virtuous concubine, and as a mother, you should be ashamed of it until you die."
"How could I harm the princess?" Concubine Xian shook her head and cried bitterly, tears falling like rain. Her face was crisscrossed with snot and tears, and she was indescribably pitiful. "Although I held the princess captive, I had no intention of hurting her.
, I admit that I do think of the Su family in my heart, but when Your Majesty promotes benevolence and filial piety, doesn’t it mean that you should put filial piety first? I, I, am filial, what is wrong with that?"
"Xian Fei," Emperor Ming Yuan looked at her, his face was not only sulky, but also had some complicated emotions. The young couple have been together for more than 20 years, and they have feelings for each other. Otherwise, he would not have come to see her today.
When she cried like this, he shook his head, "You are filial, but you have ended up where you are today. Who in the Su family feels sorry for you? Who is heartbroken for you? Ever since the news of your murder of the Queen Mother spread out of the palace, the Su family has
You've been gone for eighty-nine years. Don't you know why they left? You're afraid that the liquidation of you, the virtuous concubine, will fall on them. How many shady things did you do together in the past? I'm afraid that you will be punished today.
As long as your filial piety is useful, then your tribe will intercede for you and will not leave. On the contrary, the two children you planned to sacrifice are now grieving for you in the Qiankun Palace. Listen.
Is she crying anymore? She almost died in your hands today, but all you can see is the Su family, can you see them?"
Concubine Xian closed her eyes, tears rolled down her face, and she finally let out a heart-breaking cry, "I am the one who made the mistake."
Emperor Ming Yuan shook his head sadly, "But you will never go back from your mistake!"
"No!" Concubine Xian stamped her feet excitedly, "Your Majesty, I know I made a mistake, and I will never ignore the interests of the prince for the sake of the Su family again. I will no longer care about the Su family. I beg the emperor to forgive me. The prince's biological mother will not be spared."
Death for sin, Your Majesty, please give me a chance."
Emperor Ming Yuan said: "I have given you several opportunities to ground you and declare to the public that you are seriously ill. I have been waiting for you to correct yourself. I don't want to make the prince sad except in case of emergency, but you don't cherish it.
You have made many mistakes again and again, even killing the Queen Mother and kidnapping the princess. You have committed an unforgivable crime. Before I came, I had promoted Concubine De as the Imperial Concubine in the Hede Palace. The prince and the princess recognized the Concubine as their mother. You, the birth mother, have no power in the palace.
It won’t be recorded in history books.”
After Emperor Ming Yuan finished speaking, he stood up and left without even looking at her.
"No!" Concubine Xian roared heartbreakingly, furious as thunder, "The prince has a biological mother, why should he recognize Concubine De as his mother? Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please come back and make it clear that I am not unpardonable.
, I was framed by someone, Concubine De must have bribed Eunuch Zhang to come and talk nonsense to me, Concubine De, you must die a good death!"
"Your Majesty, it's a mother-child scene. Let me meet the prince. Let me meet the prince. Let me say goodbye to him and apologize..."
Emperor Ming Yuan's footsteps stopped outside, and Eunuch Mu Ru said softly: "Your Majesty, if the prince sees the virtuous concubine, he is afraid that he will become emotional. But if he is not allowed to see her, there will be a conflict between mother and son. He should also explain a few words before his death."
Emperor Ming Yuan was silent for a while. In the palace, Concubine Xian called Yu Wenhao's name heartbreakingly, which made her feel sad.
Emperor Ming Yuan raised his head and looked at the dark sky. The stars were completely gone. He remembered that when Concubine Xian was welcomed into the palace, her innocent face was like that of a young child. He said quietly: "Please come here, Concubine Xian."
Well, presumably, if she really repented, she would have no resentment towards the Crown Princess at all, so just listen outside and report back to me."
Eunuch Mu Ru responded, "Yes!"
Emperor Ming Yuan strode away.
Eunuch Mu Ru personally went to the Qiankun Palace. When Yu Wenhao heard that the emperor wanted Yuan Qing to pass, he subconsciously objected.
Eunuch Mu Ru said softly: "Prince, let the princess go. This is the last chance the emperor gives to the wise concubine."
Yu Wenhao was stunned at first. Looking at Eunuch Mu Ru's penetrating eyes, he suddenly understood. He sighed deeply, looked at Yuan Qing and said, "Be careful."
"Prince, don't worry, I will be by your side!" Eunuch Mu Ru said.
Yu Wenhao glanced at Eunuch Mu Ru with complicated eyes. He naturally knew what Eunuch Mu Ru meant. Even if Lao Yuan wanted to give his mother and concubine a hint, he couldn't do it because Eunuch Mu Ru was present.
