Chapter One Hundred and Twenty-Four(1/2)

The emperor was told that a look of embarrassment and guilt appeared on his face. He said as if he wanted to explain, "Ye'er, did I really think of someone using such a vicious method to harm the queen. You believe me. I go to see her every day, and the imperial doctor goes to consult every day, but I can't find out what kind of disease the queen has contracted.

Xiao Linye didn't want to listen to the emperor's explanation, "What's the use of feeling guilty now? The Queen Mother was almost killed by the woman in your harem again and again, and you couldn't protect her at all. Since that's the case, you might as well let the Queen Mother guard the imperial tomb. Even if she lived her life in a hard way, it would be good, at least she could save her life."

The prince stared at him with a sharp and sharp look, not hiding his resentment or disappointment at all.

Because she was too excited, Xiao Linye coughed violently, her face turned red, and in the end, dark red blood flowed out from the corners of her lips.

He took the white veil and wiped the blood as if nothing had happened. He said coldly and disappointedly, "If the father cannot protect his mother, then let his sons protect him from now on. Anyway, there are so many women in the father and queen's harem, and it's no big deal to lack a mother and queen alone."

Xiao Linye seemed to endure the violent aura and said ruthlessly, "But I must find out the person who killed my mother's life and will never spare her easily, even if she fought for the position of Erchen's crown prince, even if she fought for Erchen's life!"

He stared at Xiao Lie, thinking that he was extremely angry, and a strange smile appeared on his face, "I will leave my ruthless words here first. Father, don't blame me for being ruthless in the way!"

"Ye'er, I feel very sad and guilty about your mother's affairs. Even if you don't tell me about this, I will find a way to find out the real murderer and give your mother a fair."

Xiao Lie didn't want to see the terrifying leeches, so he said to the eunuch next to him, "Take this quilt down and burn it, don't leave these terrifying bugs here anymore."

The eunuch quickly dealt with these terrifying things, and in a blink of an eye it took them down and burned them cleanly.

"How is your mother like? What does the imperial doctor say?"

Xiao Linye's eyebrows were full of anger, "Does the father think that those quack doctors can find something? The son-in-law went to the genius doctor's house to ask the ancestor to diagnose his mother. The ancestor didn't want to step into the harem, so he let his female apprentice, which was Xu Muqing who came to examine and diagnose his mother's mother."

"So many leeches suck blood from their mother ten days and half a month later, so don't want the life of their mother."

The emperor's majestic face showed strong heartache, and there were still waves of fear, "That girl Xu Muqing is really good at medical skills. It is much more convenient for her to diagnose the queen than those imperial doctors. It's good that your mother is fine. I will ask the imperial doctor to take care of her body every day, and must recuperate her body back."

He thought of those outrageous methods and was so angry that he was like, "Who is so vicious that he actually used such vicious methods to harm the queen? I must find out that person and cut him into pieces!"

No matter what the queen is, she is his most beloved woman. He will never allow others to plot against the queen's life.

But Xiao Linye sneered sarcastically in his heart, not believing in the words the emperor said at all.

Even if there is no conclusive evidence, he could guess that the Queen Mother would definitely not be able to escape from this matter. He didn't believe that if the Emperor found out, he could really cut the Queen Mother into pieces?

Xiao Lie was so guilty of Xiao Linye's eyes that he coughed awkwardly, "What I said is true. Let's go, I will accompany you to see the queen, I hope she can get better soon."

Xiao Linye really wanted to punch the man in front of him in the face, and he still had the face to ask.

"The queen of mother has fallen into a coma and will not wake up for a while. Even if the father goes to Fengluan Palace to see her, he will not be able to change anything. Let's wait until she wakes up. Since the father will severely punish the murderer, I hope that the father can keep his word and stop hurting the queen's heart."

Xiao Lie said firmly, "The queen is so sick, of course I have to go see her. I also want to ask Xu Muqing how to take care of the queen's body."

The father and son walked out of the imperial study together and went to Fengluan Palace accompanied by the eunuch.

"Ye'er, I've neglected this matter. I'm sorry for your mother, don't hate me."

He said as he looked at Xiao Linye's face and saw that his face was pale, which looked like he was terminally ill. He felt relieved even after walking for a few steps.

Xiao Linye seems to be living a long life, and it would be even better if he dies faster and faster.

This is also the reason why he can tolerate Xiao Linye being rude to talk to him. After all, there is no need to worry too much about him, right?

When he arrived at Fengluan Palace, the emperor waved his hand and asked Xu Muqing to stand in front of him, "How is the Queen's body? Is her life still in danger?"

"When I go back to the emperor, the empress loses too much blood and has damaged her vitality. She must take care of herself in the next days and must not make any mistakes, otherwise even the ministers and daughters will be unable to make up for the truth."

"You can say whatever medicinal materials you need. As long as it is beneficial to the queen's body, you will be given the queen's replenishment. I want to see the queen return to her former appearance."

If Xu Muqing hadn't known Xiao Lie's true face in advance, she would have been really moved by his infatuated look. She deserved to have eliminated many princes who laughed to the end. Her acting skills were simply first-class and she believed it too much.

"You can't replenish it immediately, you can only take it slowly in a gentle way. The queen's body is now extremely deficient, and she can't bear it even if she replenishes her body at once. It's better to use a gentle way to regulate her meals every day and make more blood-replenishing foods. Pig liver soup, red date soup, pig blood and duck blood, boil some nutritious porridge, and proceed step by step."

The emperor said without hesitation, "Xu Muqing, you have prescriptions for medicinal food and blood replenishment. I have someone to cook dishes and make medicine every day."

Xu Muqing responded respectfully and immediately asked the palace maid to prepare a pen, ink, paper and inkstone. She quickly wrote the prescription and recipes on the paper, and wrote many precautions.

The emperor sat down on the edge of the bed, holding the queen's cold and sallow hands, and the pain and sadness in her eyes were so strong that they could not be dissolved.

"Empress, I'm sorry for you. I'm sorry for you. I'm too careless about you and those imperial doctors are too useless, which makes you suffer so much. Wake up quickly. Didn't you say you wanted to see the peony flowers? Is it good to take you to the Peony Villa to see the endless peony flowers?"

Xiao Lie looked at his wife's sick face. Even though there was no blood on her face and it was sallow yellow, he still felt that her sleeping appearance exuded a thrilling beauty, which made him unable to love and hurt his heart tightly.

He loved her so much, but it also put her in danger again and again.

A trace of bitterness surged in the supreme emperor's heart. The reason why she refused to open her heart for so many years was that she hated him for causing her to suffer too much grievance?

However, after waiting for a long time, the queen did not wake up. The emperor had piled up many memorials, and he could not have stayed here all the time.

"Pearl, send someone to tell me immediately when the queen wakes up."

The emperor looked at his beloved woman affectionately and nostalgically, and took the man out of Fengluan Palace.

When he walked to the door, he said to Xiao Linye, "Ye'er, I will ask Concubine De to send someone to find out this matter, don't worry."

Xiao Linye's voice was cold and enduring his anger sounded, "There is a hope that my father will find the murderer soon."

After the emperor left, Xu Muqing also stood up and said goodbye to Xiao Linye, "Your Highness, it's getting late, so my daughter will take her leave first."

"I'll send you my best." The noble and handsome man stood beside her and said in an unquestionable tone.

Xu Muqing wanted to refuse and asked him to stay with the queen, but when she met the man's worried look, she couldn't say anything she refused.

When she arrived at the place where the carriage stopped, she looked up at him and said softly, "Your Highness, just send it here. My daughter is protected by her maid, and nothing will happen."

Xiao Linye actually couldn't bear to leave her. He wanted her to be by his side, but he also knew that it was not the time.

"Be careful on the road and protect yourself." He heard himself say in a gentle voice.

It was not until Xu Muqing got into the carriage and left the palace that Xiao Linye took back his sight and walked towards Fengluan Palace.

In the magnificent and beautiful palace, the queen was lying quietly on the bed, still asleep, her face still weak and lifeless.

Xiao Linye moved a chair and sat in front of the bed, staring at his mother who loved him the most, and said silently in his heart, "Mom, I will never let you bear the suffering you have suffered now."

One day, I will definitely get back those injuries with the benefit of the people who have hurt you, push them into the eighteen levels of hell, and never be reborn!

Concubine De received the order from the emperor to start investigating someone's murder of the queen. Xiao Linye was not willing to be outdone and sent someone to investigate the matter secretly.

His efficiency was naturally very fast. In less than two days, his men found the palace maid who hid the leech in the brocade quilt in the washing machine, and followed the clues to find the person who instructed her to do so.

After a severe torture, all the cases involving the murder of the queen came to light.

The person behind the scenes who wanted to kill the queen's life was Madam Sun next to the queen mother, and the leeches were secretly brought back from the hot and humid places where the border with the South Vietnamese Kingdom was sent by King Rui Xiao Lince.

These leeches are not poisonous and will not take their lives immediately. However, there are so many blood sucking for a long time that even strong men can't bear it, let alone a weak woman like the queen.

Xiao Linye, with anger, killed to Ningshou Palace regardless of the slightest. When he saw Madam Sun, he said angrily, "Catch Madam Sun, the old poisonous woman, to the orphan!"

The maid who followed him rushed to Ningshou Palace, and directly overturned all the palace maids and eunuchs who stopped them from arresting people on the ground, and grabbed Madam Sun without hesitation.

Seeing that his visitor was not kind, the Empress Dowager turned gloomy and said loudly, "Prince, what are you doing? Who told you to force yourself to enter Ningshou Palace? What do you want to do?"

Madam Sun was twisted and her hands were buckled on her back. She turned pale with fear, her face shook, and her body shook like a sieve, and she let out a sharp and shrill scream, "The Queen Mother, save me."

Xiao Linye was too lazy to do face with the empress dowager anymore. He said coldly, "The lonely man found out that this old poisonous woman ordered someone to put more than a dozen lees in the empress's quilt, and tortured the empress for more than a month, almost taking the empress's life."

"Empress Dowager, this kind of evil slave who dares to murder your master is by your side. Aren't you afraid of being poisoned by her one day and being pierced by her scissors and completely killing you?"

The young and noble man had a strong murderous aura in his eyes, and he asked aggressively.

The Empress Dowager scolded with a gloomy face, "It's all nonsense! Madam Sun has been working in Ningshou Palace and is loyal to the Ai family. How can she have time to murder the queen? The Ai family thinks you are in a bad mood and deliberately come to find fault."

"Prince, you need to pay attention to evidence in everything. Do you have any evidence?"

Xiao Linye was too lazy to get involved with the Empress Dowager here, "Whether she is committing a crime, it's not that you have the final say about whether she is guilty, nor is it that she says she is harming anyone, it's really harmless. There are all evidence and witnesses. If you have any objections, then go and tell your father and take it away!"

The maid with a cold face twisted Madam Sun and took her away from Ningshou Palace, regardless of Madam Sun's pain.

Seeing that Xiao Linye didn't take her seriously at all, the empress dowager was so angry that she smoked her orifices and kept shouting loudly behind her, "Xiao Linye, stop for the Ai family! Madam Sun, you must not take her away, you cannot take her away!"

Xiao Linye hated her so much at this time, so how could he listen to her? His steps became faster?

The empress dowager was angry and anxious, and ordered the palace maid beside her, "What are you still standing there? Prepare for a phoenix chassis and follow them up!"

Even the empress dowager, she felt a strong fear in her heart at this time. If the emperor knew that she was instructing her behind her back, the emperor would definitely hate her even more. She couldn't even imagine whether the mother and son would turn against each other?

Xiao Linye not only took Madam Sun, but also the palace maids involved in the case of the Clothes Washing Bureau, as well as the palace maids and eunuchs who secretly brought leeches into the palace to take charge of the emperor.

"Father, the person who murdered the mother's life has been found. What are you going to do?"

Xiao Linye was young and energetic, staring at the emperor straight, "The emperor's grandmother wants the life of the queen. Father, what are you going to do with the emperor's grandmother?"

When the Empress Dowager stepped into the imperial study, she heard the last sentence Xiao Linye said, and she was so angry that she almost turned her back.

"Xiao Linye, you are slandering people. When did the Ai family murder the queen's life? Are you jealous of Xiong Xin and Leopard now? Even the Ai family dares to slander?"

As the most noble woman in the harem, the empress dowager really wants to tear Xiao Linye's mouth apart. How dare he treat her like this?

Xiao Linye said coldly, "My son only believes in conclusive evidence and never slanders others. Queen Mother, you want your mother's life not once or twice. Last time, you wanted to kill the mother directly, but this time you used this despicable and vicious method to harm the mother."

"I just don't understand. How could the Queen Mother offend you? You even want her life again and again? Although she is the queen, the Feng Yin is in your hand. She has no real power at all. She can't cause any storm in the harem. You can't tolerate the Queen Mother?"

"Where is the evidence? Prince, how dare you talk to the Ai family with such an attitude. You are offending and disrespectful. Are you not afraid of being drowned by the spits of the ministers?"

The Empress Dowager directly put an unfilial hat on Xiao Linye's head, "Emperor, the Ai family has never had the heart to harm the queen. Don't be deceived by his clever words."

Xiao Linye directly placed all the testimony, the exchange of silver, and other physical evidence in front of the emperor.

"This is the testimony of the palace maids and eunuchs of the Washing Clothes Bureau. The bottle was brought in by King Rui. It was also sent to Ningshou Palace for the Empress Dowager to see it before it was hidden in the brocade quilt in Fengluan Palace."

"Madam Sun never set foot in the washing clothes before. She has been there every three days for just one month. When she ordered people to hide the leech in the brocade quilt, she was seen. She was all the testimony in front of her. She dared to argue?"

The emperor looked at the evidence, as deep as Gutan's eyes flashed with dark light. After he finished reading the testimony, his anger spread uncontrollably, and he did not want to listen to those people's defenses anymore.
