243. Conditions
Seeing Qiucao's determined expression, the Queen Mother's face froze. Do you know? Could it be that... the Queen already knew about the prisoner's execution?
The Queen Mother thought in horror, unable to speak fluently, "You, what do you know?"
Qiucao smiled weakly, and her voice seemed to come from the misty void, "My son is already dead."
Although she had already guessed that Qiucao might know everything about the matter, the Queen Mother couldn't help being shocked when she heard it directly.
No wonder the couple have been at odds recently, and it is indeed because of the death row prisoner.[
But how did the queen know? She remembered that she handled it very cleanly. Even the executioner gave him a sum of money and ordered him to go far away and not to set foot in Huamo City again.
Could it be that... the executioner didn't leave? No, according to the spies she sent, the executioner left Huamo City immediately after the execution without answering.
The Queen Mother pondered seriously for a long time and guessed, "Your Majesty, did your Majesty tell you?"
"No." Qiucao shook his head gently.
The Queen Mother breathed a sigh of relief, but her heart immediately started to rise again, and she secretly screamed.
No! The Queen must have misunderstood the Emperor if she knew about the death row prisoner's execution.
The Queen Mother looked at Qiucao in embarrassment, and almost impulsively told the truth. Fortunately, Mu Zhaozhu's words from that day rang in her mind in time, and she suppressed the words that came to her.
The Queen Mother wanted to refuse Qiucao's request to see Muzi, because what was buried in the tomb was not Muzi at all, but Mu Zhaozhu's clothes. However, looking at Qiucao's dazed expression, the Queen Mother couldn't bear it anymore and thought
He said that it might not be possible to meet him. So the Queen Mother nodded and said: "Okay, the Queen Mother will take you to see him."
"Thank you, Queen Mother."
The Queen Mother looked at Qiucao seriously and said word by word, "You can see my son if you want, but the Queen Mother has a condition."
"Mother, please speak."
"You have to promise your mother that after you take care of your child, you will forget about him. You are not allowed to lock yourself up like this these past few days. You have to give birth to the child in peace, and then live a good life with Your Majesty." The Queen Mother paused.
After pausing, he continued, "If you can't do this, the queen mother will not agree to take you to see him."
