Chapter 318: The Steal
"Rui'er, is your leg healed?" The emperor looked at his tall and strong son standing in front of her and said happily, "Go and show it to your mother."
A trace of difficulty flashed across Prince Ning's face, but he still took a step forward as the Queen instructed.
"Ah?! How could this happen...my Rui'er..." Looking at her son who was walking with uneven steps, the queen almost fell down.
Although Prince Ning looked worried, he was better than the Queen. He comforted the tearful Queen and said, "Don't worry, Mother. He can walk on his own now. I may be able to recover completely after I find a famous doctor."
Having said that, a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
Chu Nanyue could obviously cure his leg, but she deliberately didn't. Not only that, she also secretly flattered the Empress Dowager, so that even the Emperor was reluctant to ask her to cure his leg openly!
The Queen was even more furious: "It's all the fault of that bitch Chu Nanyue. I must kill the evil couple in her belly and let her have a taste of despair!"
Thinking of her overly pregnant belly, she wanted to stab that piece of flesh with a knife. Separation was a bad omen, but it was twisted into a good omen!
After Rui'er broke her leg, she had been using all her strength to look for famous doctors, so she didn't even calm down and investigate. Humph! Even without investigation, it was obvious that who else in the world could hurt Rui'er?
Among these forces, Xiao Junan and Xiao Hanye are obviously the most likely!
Apart from her Rui'er, the two of them are the most likely to succeed to the throne. No matter who of them succeeds to the throne in the end, neither of them will want a queen mother or empress dowager.
Xiao Hanye has always been arrogant and domineering. Due to their recent proactive attack, he is the most likely candidate, but this does not mean that Xiao Junan has no possibility.
Don't think that he always looks gentle and kind. If that were true, how could he survive in this treacherous palace? Even if he had the emperor's favoritism, what would it matter? The emperor couldn't do everything. Didn't he still fail to keep Ouyang when he favored her so much?
No one would believe it if you said that Xiao Jun'an didn't have his own methods. Besides, his biological mother Ouyang had such a paranoid first love!
Chu Zhaoyu!
I'm afraid I've already become his arm!
Thinking of this, her eyes released a strong fire.
That paranoid man was so obsessed and presumptuous that he made excessive demands on her for the entire night just because the emperor had taken his white moonlight!
And she even half-heartedly cooperated with him even though she was heartbroken about the emperor...
Thinking of that night of shame and anger, her body suddenly felt like it was on fire for no apparent reason, a mixture of rage and burning desire!
Prince Ning noticed the Queen's abnormality, narrowed his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Mother, now that Prince Yan is not in the capital, we have many opportunities to kill that woman, but the most urgent task now is to heal her leg first!"
The queen came back to her senses instantly and nodded, "Yes, curing your leg is the most important thing. Since we can't touch that bitch, then we can touch the people around her. I will make her beg to come and treat your leg!"
Suddenly, she said again: "Rui'er, mother will tell you a secret..."
Little did she know that her so-called secret was sent to Rong Fei's palace intact that same night.
Concubine Rong held tightly onto the corner of the table, her face pale. The Queen actually thought that Xiao Jun'an was the child of Ouyang and Chu Zhaoyu?
Although it was a wild idea, she felt very uneasy!
What would he do if one day the emperor really found out that the son he had loved for many years was not his biological son?
She dared not think about such a heinous crime...
Looking at the cinnabar embedded in her fingers, a hint of murderous intent flashed across her eyes...
She is no longer the little concubine who was bullied by everyone when she first entered the palace. She will kill anyone who dares to block her son's path!
Of course, her transformation was caused by the intrigues in the palace, and also by the heart of an old mother who was devoted to finding a way for her son...
Thinking back to the past, when she first entered the palace, she had thought that she would live a life of mediocrity and die in the palace. However, fate played tricks on her, and the old emperor favored her only once. At the palace banquet the next day, she fell in love with Ouyang who came from the Western Regions at first sight...
But who would have thought that by coincidence, a month later, she and Ouyang were both found to be pregnant with a dragon heir...
What a coincidence! They both gave birth to a prince on the same day...
In fact, she had no power at all back then. Not to mention switching their children, she couldn't even give birth to her own child safely...
Back then, not long after she became pregnant, the queen secretly poisoned her. When the poison took effect that night, she could even clearly feel the fetus slipping away from her belly. At that time, she cried out to the heavens and the earth, but no one responded. Just when she was desperately trying to pick up a pair of scissors to cut open her belly to save her child, that man came...
Not only did he save her, he also saved her child...
At that time, she didn't know whose child this was?
After all, a few months ago, he and the old emperor had been in and out...
But he said to her: "Linglong, you are the woman I love most in my life. Your child is my child. I will protect you and your child..."
She had originally wanted to sever this relationship, but when she heard this, she collapsed. Screw the treason, the moral principles, and ethics. The most important thing was to stay alive!
The old emperor treats her like a piece of trash, so she has to find a way out for herself and her child!
With the help of Chu Zhaoyu, she not only stole the dragon and replaced the phoenix, but also successfully instigated the rebellion of the empress's spy beside her...
But what she didn't expect was that Ouyang died of heavy bleeding shortly after giving birth. The emperor was extremely angry and could not accept this fact. He sent the imperial guards to investigate the matter. At that time, everyone in the palace was in a panic...
After all, if you have love in one person, you have resentment in one person. Which woman in the harem doesn't envy Ouyang and wish she would die? Therefore, not only does everyone have a motive, but everyone is more or less involved... For a while, the entire palace was shrouded in darkness...
Therefore, Chu Zhaoyu had to leave the palace at that time, and her life fell into darkness again, but she didn't feel bitter when she saw her biological son being raised by the old emperor in the Yangxin Palace...
Even in that lonely life, she found a kind of evil interest, humiliating Ouyang's son...
It was not until she became pregnant with Xiao Yihang again that her condition gradually improved, the old emperor came out of the grief of losing Ouyang, and the harem returned to normal...
Xing Er looked at the stunned Concubine Rong, pursed her lips, and continued in a low voice: "Don't worry, your majesty. The Queen is just suspicious now. She doesn't have any definite evidence. What's more, her top priority now is to start with you to force the Princess of Yan to treat Prince Ning's leg..."
Xing Er was the spy that the Queen had arranged to be with Concubine Rong, but she had already been turned against by Chu Zhaoyu using inhumane means...
Rong Fei's eyes flashed, and she grabbed a handful of golden melon seeds and gave them to Xing Er, saying quietly: "After three days, you will report back to the Queen..."
In that case, she would just take advantage of the situation. After all, no one could hinder her son's path to becoming the emperor!
The old emperor, the queen, Xiao Hanye... forget it!
