Chapter 252 The belated truth
Chapter 252 The belated truth
"What do you mean?" Xiao Yinmo asked with a frown.
Yun Yue, who was standing at the side, raised her lips slightly, revealing a gloating smile: "He is about to die."
If her son hadn't been watching, she would have beaten the gong and drum.
Hearing this, Xiao Yinchen was silent for a moment, then laughed at himself: "Yes, I'm dying."
Xiao Yinmo couldn't help but ask doubtfully, "Huh? Didn't you escape from Queen Liu's clutches?"
Xiao Yinchen slowly raised his head and looked straight at Xiao Yinmo, as if he wanted to see through his eyes to see his true thoughts and expressions. He replied calmly: "It is true that I escaped the assassination of Queen Liu, but I still couldn't escape the murderous hands of our 'good father'."
"Shut up! Stop talking nonsense here! Why do you keep bringing up our father?" Xiao Yinmo shouted angrily.
However, Xiao Yinchen did not stop talking because of his brother's rebuke. Instead, he laughed even louder and crazier: "Hahahahahahahahaha... Big brother, big brother, you and I have been kept in the dark for too long! Have you always thought that he is the kind father who dotes on you? Are you still foolishly believing that he loves your mother deeply? Wrong! Very wrong! He doesn't love anyone at all. He only loves himself!"
Faced with his emotionally agitated brother, Xiao Yinmo was speechless for a moment. He just stared quietly at this somewhat unfamiliar relative in front of him.
In fact, in his previous life, he had questioned Xiao Yinchen in the same way, asking him why he brutally killed his mother and imprisoned him. At that time, Xiao Yinchen's reason was simply to fight for the throne and to avenge his mother. But now thinking back, things are probably far from that simple...
"Brother, it was not me who killed the late queen, but your beloved father!" Xiao Yinchen's eyes were filled with the pleasure of revenge.
Xiao Yinmo's eyes widened in disbelief: "You are talking nonsense!"
"Nonsense? I'm almost dead, what nonsense am I talking about? It's my father who thinks the former queen threatens his throne. After all, she should have just been a queen in the harem. But she got involved in things she shouldn't have."
"What did the Queen Mother get involved in?"
"Of course it's father's royal power. Did you know that the late queen built a girls' school, an orphanage, and helped poor children... all of these made her name and reputation higher than father's. When father went on a secret visit, all he heard were words of praise for the queen from the people and ministers. How do you think he felt?"
"My father thought that the queen wanted to be the empress. So he wanted her to disappear. But because he liked you as the successor, he was afraid that if he did it himself, it would be exposed and affect the relationship between father and son, so he asked me to poison the queen."
"No...impossible!" Xiao Yinmo thought of the loving look on his parents' faces and refused to believe it.
"How ridiculous. Father-son relationship? Haha ...
Xiao Yinmo stepped forward and grabbed Xiao Yinchen's neck tightly, his eyes red and he gritted his teeth and said, "Impossible!! Father, it's impossible..."
Heartwarming scenes flashed through Xiao Yinmo's memory.
"What more can a husband ask for when he has such a wife?"
"Yu An, look what I brought you?"
"Mo'er, your mother is an amazing woman. She is the best woman in the world!"
"Yu An, I only love you in this life..."
"..."
When my father had free time, he would chat and draw with my mother, and often gave her new and interesting toys. The two of them would often sneak out of the palace to play. After my mother died, my father was so sad that he fell ill. How could he be the culprit who killed my mother?
"Of course it's true, otherwise where do you think I got the poison? Brother, are you heartbroken? Are you sad?" Xiao Yin asked happily, not afraid of the hand pinching his neck.
Xiao Yinmo's grip tightened little by little, as if he wanted him to swallow all the words.
It was not until Yunyue put her hand on his that Xiao Yinmo came to his senses and threw Xiao Yinchen, who was about to be strangled to death, to the ground.
Yun Yue held Xiao Yinmo's hand, looked at Xiao Yinchen who was sitting on the ground and asked, "What evidence do you have?"
"I am the best evidence. Aren't you a doctor? Look, I am infertile. He poisoned me because he was afraid I would seize my elder brother's throne."
Then he looked up at Xiao Yinmo and said, "There is another kind of poison in my body. On the day you got into trouble, I told him what I had done to you and that I poisoned him. Who knew that before he died, he actually had someone poison my tea. Hahahahaha... our good father! Really..."
Xiao Yinchen didn't know what to say for a moment, and his heart was filled with mixed emotions. He suddenly realized that among so many brothers and sisters, he was the only one who was most similar to that person.
The similarity was not in appearance, but in the personality traits that were deeply rooted in their bones—cruel, vicious! These words seemed to be engraved deep in their souls.
He actually became the person he hated the most...
Yunyue stepped forward to check Xiao Yinchen's pulse. She stood up and looked at the extremely uncomfortable Xiao Yinmo and nodded helplessly.
"He... is indeed poisoned by two kinds of poison..."
Xiao Yinmo staggered back two steps, and lost his mind. His face was full of disbelief, and he stared blankly ahead, as if he had lost the ability to perceive everything around him. His originally handsome and resolute face instantly turned as pale as paper, and his lips trembled slightly but he could not make a sound.
Fubao felt his father's pain and stretched out his little hands to hug his legs.
Yunyue also felt very uncomfortable.
Yun Yue hugged Xiao Yinmo and whispered, "It's all over... We are here."
Xiao Yinmo looked at Yunyue and his son who were worried about him, and his beautiful and determined eyes finally slowly focused again.
Yes, he has his own family...
Xiao Yinchen looked at the happy family of three, jealousy, envy, and all kinds of emotions surged up in his heart.
Want to break this dazzling scene.
"Yunyue, do you also want to be the queen?"
"So what?" Yun Yue did not deny her ambition.
Xiao Yinchen chuckled, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone: "There is no family affection or love under imperial power... Even biological fathers and sons, loving couples may harm each other. In the future, who knows what the relationship between you will become. My eldest brother and I are both descendants of our father. We have the same blood flowing in our bodies, and we are equally fickle. As for you... Maybe one day, you will end up with the same tragic end as the late queen..." His words were like a sharp blade, piercing people's hearts.
Fubao, who had been standing aside and listening quietly, could no longer suppress his anger. He jumped up angrily and shouted, "My daddy would never be like you guys!!!!" The childish voice was full of anger and dissatisfaction.
Do you really think he can't see that the bad uncle is trying to sow discord between father and mother?
Upon seeing this, Xiao Yinmo hurriedly explained to Yunyue: "Yue'er, don't listen to his nonsense, I would never do such a thing..." However, before he could finish his words, he was decisively interrupted by Yunyue.
Yun Yue shook her head slightly and said with a smile: "It's okay. How could I easily believe his provocative words. You are completely different from them. Besides..." At this point, she paused slightly, then looked straight at Xiao Yinchen, and continued confidently:
"Even if that day really comes and he becomes the kind of person you described, I have nothing to fear. Just because... I am Yun Yue! My ambition is not in the back house or the harem. What I want is this world!!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she smiled, and that smile was as bright and dazzling as the summer sun, and it was impossible to ignore it.
Xiao Yinchen turned his head and looked at Xiao Yinchen. He found that there was no guard or contempt in his elder brother's eyes, nor was there the complicated and defensive expression like his father's.
There is only appreciation and... pride?
Xiao Yinchen knew in his heart that his elder brother was not the same as his father. He was still the same elder brother who was bright, clean, and kind.
At this moment he knew that he had really lost...completely.
