Chapter 140 Wouldn’t it be nice to create a new account and start over?
Chapter 140 Wouldn’t it be nice to create a new account and start over?
The scenes finally ended with Song Yunxi settling accounts with her son.
[If Concubine Tong had married an ordinary family of equal status, or even a noble from the capital, the Tong family's financial resources would have been enough to protect her life. But she entered the palace and became the emperor's woman. This life... is simply a foreseeable tragedy.]
It would have been fine if she hadn't heard these words, but upon hearing them, Tong Fei's eyes instantly turned red.
Regret?
Although she never mentioned it to anyone, she actually regretted it a long time ago.
I shouldn't have fallen for that one glance, and I shouldn't have entered the palace regardless of everything, and even dragged the entire Tong family in.
For more than 20 years, she had lived in fear for not a single day. Moreover, because of her merchant family background and her lack of favor, even her own son was ignored by the emperor, who did not care about his marriage or future.
Seeing her sinking into grief, Song Yunxi could only sigh helplessly in her heart: "I heard that the queen has been unwell recently. I know a little about medicine. The queen is worried about the queen, so she asked me to come and see her."
At this time, the only way to justify her actions is to bring up the Queen.
It was actually the Queen who asked her to come, and Concubine Tong's gratitude to the Queen reached a new level.
She knew clearly the Queen's situation, but even so, the Queen had taken good care of these neglected concubines in the palace over the years so that their lives would not become more difficult.
Song Yunxi handed the supplements to the maid: "These are also what the Queen ordered me to bring."
"Thank you, Queen, for your concern."
Song Yunxi got straight to the point: "Your Majesty, please take a seat. I will diagnose your pulse."
Concubine Tong wanted to refuse, but faced with Song Yunxi's powerful aura, she instantly wilted. She sat down obediently and stretched out her hand like a bullied wife.
As he expected, Concubine Tong was suffering from depression.
[But judging from her pulse, Concubine Tong's symptoms of depression and stagnation are only in the early stages. Why does her body behave as if she is terminally ill? ]
"Have you taken any medicine recently?"
As her own life was at stake, Concubine Tong immediately ordered someone to bring the prescription written by Imperial Physician Lu.
Concubine Tong's eyes were filled with clear stupidity: "Miss, what's the problem?"
Looking at her still ignorant of the world, Song Yunxi didn't know whether to say that she had kept her original intention or that she had not made any progress.
[I want to tell her that Doctor Lu's medicine will accelerate her condition and cause her to commit suicide out of despair. Will she be scared to tears as she is so weak?]
Concubine Tong: “…”
She wanted to cry now.
But she also had some doubts about Song Yunxi's intentions. Doctor Lu was such a gentle man and had no grudges against her, so why would he want to harm her?
She was a concubine without family background and not favored by the emperor. She was useless in the harem. What good would it be for Doctor Lu if she really committed suicide?
As if seeing through her inner doubts, Song Yunxi's fatal voice sounded again -
[Doctor Lu is Concubine Shen's man. You are indeed useless to Concubine Shen and her son, but your son is useful to the Tong family. Her son is the heir, and your son is the money bag.]
[And if you die, they can also frame the Queen and Ye Xuanqi to attack their competitors, making your son hate them to the core, which is simply killing two birds with one stone.]
The more Tong Fei listened, the paler her face became, and cold sweat soaked her entire back.
[I can guarantee that this plan to kill the mother and keep the son must be Song Muxue's idea. If she continues to instigate, Ye Xuanling, a useless man with a brain clouded by shit, will definitely help Ye Xuanrong target Ye Xuanqi everywhere, under the pretext of revenge for his mother.]
Concubine Tong has completely believed it.
After all, she knew her son well. As long as he was involved with Song Muxue, how could he be completely brainless? He was completely brainless!
He asked Song Yunxi fearfully: "Miss, am I... am I going to die?"
"That won't kill you."
[With me here, it's hard for you to die even if you want to. ]
Concubine Tong was just about to let out a sigh of relief when she heard Song Yunxi bluntly say, "But the queen has a son as brainless as Prince Kang. I think she will be mad to death soon."
Tong Fei: Although it is indeed true, but...but can't you say it more tactfully?
Seeing that Concubine Tong’s eyes were red again, Song Yunxi wanted to cry too.
[All crows are black, all men are unfaithful. The man she chose is unreliable, so why do she think her son can be reliable? ]
[If I were her, I would have kicked out a son who didn't care about his own mother's life and death for a scheming woman and severed the mother-son relationship.]
[In this palace with a strict hierarchy, being a concubine is not a problem for anyone. I don’t have to serve my parents-in-law and husband, and I can leave my conscienceless son behind without worrying about him. In this palace, I am a transparent existence that no one cares about. Moreover, my family has no power but money...]
[With such a good life, if it were me, I would definitely hide in Yuqiong Palace every day and live a luxurious life of spending money like water. I would also secretly spend money to get a few good-looking and young eunuchs and guards, and tease them whenever I want. ]
[She had all the conditions for such a wonderful life, but she missed them all without realizing it, and even made herself depressed! ]
[No, what on earth is she depressed about? ]
The more Song Yunxi thought about it, the more she wanted to cry. Her sympathy for Concubine Tong, who was sad and self-pitying, disappeared completely.
For some reason, after hearing Song Yunxi's voice, Tong Fei seemed to feel less uncomfortable and her breathlessness seemed to be smoother.
Yes, no one has ever bothered her for so many years. She doesn't have to worry about her mother's family and deal with the emperor like the queen, nor does she have to work hard to consolidate her favor like Concubine Shen. Her family regularly sends her large sums of money because they feel guilty about her...
What on earth is she worried about every day?
Is it because your son is in love with Song Muxue?
Anyway, no matter how she persuaded him, he couldn't turn back from his wrong path. Didn't she know this from the beginning?
Her son was destined to have no chance of becoming emperor since birth, and he had never thought of competing for the throne. Even if the fact that he loved Song Muxue was known to others, it would only damage his reputation. Would anyone want to take the life of a prince because of this?
Of course not!
So, what is she depressed about?
The more Tong Fei thought about it, the more she couldn't understand her past self.
[A dog like Ye Xuanling should just consider the birth of him as the discharge of the garbage in his body. If he really wants a child, then while he is still young and beautiful, wouldn't it be nice to have another small account and train it again? ]
Although some of Song Yunxi's words were very novel and she had never heard them before, she still understood them when she put them all together.
Have another child? But the emperor hasn't come to her palace for many years. How can there be a child without favor?
