Chapter 350: The Heavenly Family is Ruthless
Chapter 350: The Heavenly Family is Ruthless
As Lu Xinran spoke, he was about to take action, and the queen not far away also fell into deep thought.
She had forgotten when it started, but the emperor always looked at her with disgust and impatience.
In the inner room, the imperial doctors were still busy treating the emperor.
He had just woken up and his pulse was stable, so how could he suddenly vomit blood and faint again?
All the imperial doctors felt dizziness before their eyes, fearing that they would not see the rising sun again.
Lu Xinran was flipping through the emperor's booklet vigorously. Loading the emperor's booklet consumed life points, and it could only be saved for one day a year. The cost-effectiveness was really not high.
Therefore, every time she entered the palace, she would only look at the emperor. If she could see him more, she would earn herself an extra year of life!
She was flipping through the booklet excitedly when Song Junyan, who had walked up to her side without her knowing, suddenly pulled her sleeve.
He leaned over and whispered in her ear, "It's probably related to her background."
Lu Xinran: “?!!”
Background? Did the emperor discover that he was actually the son of the previous Empress Zhang, and was brainwashed by the previous emperor for many years, so he subconsciously developed disgust and resistance to the Zhang family, so he transferred this complex emotion directly to the Empress?
If that's the case, then it's really not appropriate to dig it up now.
After all, when she read the booklet, her inner thoughts could not be concealed and would be heard by everyone.
Now is not the time to reveal the true identities of the emperor and Yunsong.
She gave him a look, silently asking what to do. Song Junyan pondered for a moment and whispered, "Let's wait for Father's condition first."
If the emperor is not seriously ill, he can at least last half a year to a year, and his life experience can be considered in detail.
If the emperor's vomiting of blood this time has damaged his foundation and they won't have too much time to prepare, it would be better to cut the Gordian knot.
After all, if they didn't take this opportunity to expose the emperor and Yunsong's life stories, Yunsong would have been planning for this moment for so many years, and he would definitely find a way to make it known to the world.
Lu Xinran understood what he meant, and his consciousness sank into the emperor's booklet again.
If we can’t look at the past first, then let’s help the imperial doctors find out what’s wrong with the emperor.
[Tsk, this medicine is really overbearing. ]
[The emperor took three pills in a row yesterday, and the medicine that had not completely dissipated was running rampant in his body. Just now it rushed directly to his heart and lungs. Coupled with the fact that the emperor was a little turbulent, he spat out a mouthful of blood.]
[Well, this can be considered a blessing in disguise? After spitting out this mouthful of blood, the medicinal power of the serious illness in his body was completely released.]
【If you take good care of yourself after this, you should be able to live for a few more years. 】
[Of course, if he can't control himself and still thinks about sex and drinking, then he won't be able to eat the New Year's Eve dinner.]
Everyone: "..."
This last sentence actually doesn’t need to be said!
But what is the meaning of this statement?
Is there really something wrong with the emperor's health?
How many years can I live? How did it come to this?
The court officials who had not yet taken sides had already begun to make calculations in their minds.
In the past, people did not take sides because the emperor seemed to be in his prime. If they rashly took sides, there would be so many years ahead and who knows what accidents might happen.
But it’s different now, it’s just a few years at most... If I don’t choose a master, I’m afraid I’ll have no chance.
People outside the palace were in unrest, and the Queen Mother inside the palace swayed slightly as she listened to Lu Xinran's voice.
How could this happen? Her son was fine, so how could he become so serious after taking an aphrodisiac pill?
Could that system have gotten it wrong?
She wanted to walk out of the inner room quickly, grab Lu Xinran's arm and interrogate him.
But the solemnity of the imperial doctors and the emperor's gloomy face silently reminded her that everything Lu Xinran said in his heart was true.
The Queen was still waiting to know why the Emperor suddenly became so cold towards her, and since then she has become even more wary of the Duke's Mansion.
She waited for a long time but didn't hear any voice from her heart, which made her very surprised.
With this girl's curiosity, how could she miss such a great opportunity?
The doubt in her eyes made Lu Xinran instantly remember Yunsong's words before. If she didn't want to arouse suspicion, she couldn't let herself stop.
[I don't know the exact time, it's too troublesome to find, forget it, let's start from the wedding of the emperor and the empress. ]
[The empress returned to Beijing at the age of 18 and married the emperor, who was not yet the crown prince. In the third year after their marriage, the emperor was canonized as the crown prince, and she followed the emperor into the palace and lived in the East Palace.]
[In the second year after the wedding of the Emperor and Empress, the late Emperor appointed two concubines to the Emperor. When he entered the East Palace, he would grant the Crown Prince all the concubines he was entitled to.]
[As a father, I stuff women into my son's room... The late emperor is quite interesting. Is he stealing the empress dowager's job, or does he think that his son should not be wronged in terms of women? ]
[It took only a year for the Queen to go from initially finding it difficult to understand and accept the situation to finally watching in a numbed state as all the rooms in the Eastern Palace were filled up.]
[At this time, the emperor has not yet shown any weird or hot-and-cold behavior, but the queen has already begun to give up. ]
Lu Xinran's words made the queen a little dazed. She thought she had forgotten what happened back then, but her memory had its own ideas. Following these words, it automatically jumped out and presented every scene of that year before her eyes.
She leaned against the big red pillar, her expression still calm.
Now that things have come to this, what else does she need to care about?
After all, so many years have passed, and she has long lost the dignity of a queen, so there is nothing she needs to care about.
Zhang Yongping, who was outside the hall, listened to the mumbling in his heart, and his old heart still felt a pang of pain.
He was more anxious than anyone else to know why his daughter had suffered such injustice.
[The late emperor was very good to the emperor. Ever since he took the throne of the crown prince, he had done many things to help him gain the trust of the court officials.]
[As for other princes who wanted the throne, the former emperor would also design for the emperor to eliminate all opponents. ]
[As expected, the royal family is ruthless. The late emperor was so cold-blooded. The princes who were framed by the emperor were all his own flesh and blood.]
[The late emperor actually thought that there was nothing wrong with doing this and that he should remove all obstacles in order to ascend the throne.]
When Lu Xinran saw this, his scalp began to tingle.
The previous emperor had a total of eleven princes. The emperor eliminated six of them while he was alive, and four after his death.
The youngest prince was only ten years old when he died; he was still just a child.
She could not imagine that they would eradicate the problem to such an extent.
Under her sleeves, she pinched the back of Song Junyan's hand with her slightly cold fingertips and silently mouthed to him: Do you want to continue?
If we dig deeper, we will get to the emperor's life story.
