Chapter 415 The Tragic Queen 3
Chapter 415 The Tragic Queen 3
As soon as Jiang Chunxi finished speaking, the emperor immediately looked at Concubine Li with suspicion.
Could it be that Concubine Li was lying to him again? The reason she swore such a poisonous oath just now was just to deceive him.
It's no wonder that the Emperor has such low trust in Concubine Li. After all, in his heart he has firmly believed that the child in the Queen's belly was caused by Concubine Li.
Imperial Concubine Li received the emperor's suspicious gaze, and she gnashed her teeth in her heart: "Does the queen believe in fairness? If she didn't do it, then she didn't do it. If the queen insists on suspecting me, then I have nothing to say. I will do as the queen says and send all the servants in my palace to the Ministry of Punishment."
The reason why Concubine Li dared to say this was because she knew that the Emperor would definitely stop her.
"Nonsense," the emperor said immediately, "It's fine if the queen is being naughty, but why are you doing the same?"
Regardless of whether the child between Concubine Yi and Concubine Su was conceived by Concubine Li, the Emperor must protect her.
"Your Majesty, what do you want me to do?" Imperial Concubine Li cried aggrievedly, "The Queen insists on suspecting me, and I have no evidence to prove my innocence, so I can only do as the Queen says and send all the servants who serve me to the Ministry of Punishment."
"Empress," Concubine Li then looked at Jiang Chunxi, "Are you satisfied with this?"
"What am I satisfied with?" Jiang Chunxi showed a bitter smile. "Didn't you see that the emperor insisted on saving you? Without the emperor's consent, how could I dare to send your Imperial Concubine Li's servant to the Ministry of Punishment? After all, your Imperial Concubine Li is more like a queen than I am. The power of this palace has always been in your hands, not in mine."
"Empress," the emperor looked at Jiang Chunxi helplessly, "I don't let you take charge of the palace because I'm afraid you'll be exhausted, so I gave the palace power to Concubine Li..."
"Stop talking," Jiang Chunxi broke down and cried, "It was because I, the queen, was greedy for pleasure and handed over the power of the palace to a vicious woman that my child was killed."
"Your Majesty, our child is already more than six months old. Your Majesty also felt the baby's fetal movement in my belly. You were so happy at that time. But now you choose to protect the murderer who killed our child. This makes me doubt that the person your Majesty loves in his heart is really me, not Concubine Li?"
"Your Majesty, you really disappoint me," Jiang Chunxi stood up and wiped her tears. "You are so protective of Imperial Concubine Li, so expect Imperial Concubine Li to attack the heir again and again. How could a woman as vicious as her allow others to give birth to a child?"
"First it was the Empress, I, then Concubine Yi and Concubine Su," Jiang Chunxi sneered bitterly, "Who will be next? I can guarantee that if anyone gets pregnant again, they will have an abortion immediately. Your Majesty must protect Concubine Li, aren't you afraid of ending up without children or grandchildren? After all, Concubine Li is such a vicious woman, I don't believe that God would be so blind as to let her give birth to a son."
"How dare you," the emperor said angrily, "Queen, it seems that I dote on you too much, which is why you are so lawless. You dare to curse me to have no children or grandchildren. Are you sure that I will not abolish you?"
"Then Your Majesty, please depose me!" Jiang Chunxi also looked at the emperor angrily, "Your Majesty has disappointed me so much. It is meaningless for me to be the queen. If Your Majesty wants to depose me, then do so! I am waiting for your decree to depose you."
As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Chunxi turned and left.
As for the abandoned...
Haha! She was not worried. The original owner was the Crown Princess appointed by the previous emperor, and her father died for the country. Even if the emperor really wanted to depose her, he would have to see if the civil and military officials in the court agreed. After all, deposing the queen involved state affairs, and it was not something the emperor could do just because he wanted to. Especially since the emperor had only been on the throne for more than two years, he could not depose her as the queen.
"Your Majesty, has the Queen already suspected something?" As soon as Concubine Li saw Jiang Chunxi leave, she immediately came to sit next to the Emperor. "If the Queen suspects that the person the Emperor truly favors is me, I'm afraid there will be endless troubles!"
"Especially since the Queen is convinced that I have killed her child," Imperial Concubine Li took the Emperor's hand and placed it on her belly. "Your Majesty, I am really worried right now. Didn't you say before that you wanted the Queen to bleed to death? If that's the case, why not..."
"Alright," the emperor took his hand away from Concubine Li's belly, "It's already this time, and you still only want the queen to die. You hate the queen so much, and it's not enough that you killed the queen's child. Now you want to kill the queen again. Can't you do some good deeds for the sake of the child in your belly and calm down?"
From these words, it can be heard that the emperor took Jiang Chunxi's words to heart. Concubine Li simply could not tolerate anyone else giving birth to an heir to the throne. It would be fine if she could give birth to a prince, but what if she couldn't?
What's more, no matter how much he loves Concubine Li, he does value the children born by Concubine Li more, but that doesn't mean he doesn't want other concubines to give birth to children. After all, which man doesn't want many children, especially when he is the emperor.
"Your Majesty, in the end, simply doesn't believe me," Imperial Concubine Li said angrily, "Even though I just swore such a poisonous oath, Your Majesty still doesn't believe me. If that's the case, Your Majesty should just sentence me to death right now to avenge the Queen and Concubine Yi and Concubine Su's child. Why would you spare the life of a vicious woman like me?"
"That's enough," the emperor's expression turned cold, "Imperial Concubine Li, I dote on you too much, that's why you don't take me seriously. Go back to your palace, get out of here right now."
"Go away if you want to," Imperial Concubine Li stood up. After all, she also had a temper. "I will go back right now and will never bother the Emperor again."
Then, Concubine Li walked out angrily.
"Rebellion, rebellion," the emperor was naturally very angry, "They all don't take me, the emperor, seriously. It seems that I really spoiled them too much."
Of course, the emperor's words also included Jiang Chunxi.
At the same time, in Concubine Yi's palace.
Regardless of her recent miscarriage, Concubine Su went to Concubine Yi's palace and told her her doubts.
Concubine Su knew very well that it was impossible for her to overthrow Concubine Li on her own, and she had to cooperate with others to avenge her child.
After hearing what Concubine Su said, Concubine Yi looked indescribably solemn: "If Concubine Li is really the woman that the emperor holds in his heart, then it will be even more difficult for us to deal with Concubine Li."
"Sister Yifei, are you just going to give up like this?" Supin said, "If you don't avenge your child, are you going to watch Imperial Concubine Li give birth to the child and then watch Imperial Concubine Li become the queen?"
