Chapter 262: The Imperial Concubine is Pure and Elegant (XI)
Concubine Xu couldn't control her anger. She didn't think she was cruel, but she felt that everyone in the harem was several times more cruel than her! Especially the one who attacked the fetus in her belly!
Concubine Xu: "No matter how cruel I am, I will never kill my own child. Do you think I don't want to save him? But I can't save him!"
Concubine Xu: "In three or four days, he will really die in my belly! Now that he is dead, shouldn't I avenge him? I can only set up a trap to send him away so that his life in this world will not be in vain! Your Majesty, if you want to blame someone, you should blame our prince for blocking the way of certain people and annoying them!"
Liang Sheng clenched his right hand, unable to believe that Concubine Xu's usually kind face could be so ferocious.
Liang Sheng: "I will not let go of anyone who attacked my son, but how can I allow you to use my son? Can't you let him reincarnate peacefully? You are unfit to be a mother!"
Concubine Xu: "Yes, I am sorry for the prince and failed to protect him! But Your Majesty, do you know how much I look forward to the birth of my son? Do you know how vicious the women in the harem are? If it weren't for them, how could the prince die? How can they be worthy of being his mother?"
Liang Sheng: "Princess Xu, please don't speak nonsense, otherwise..."
Seeing that Emperor Liang was suppressing his anger, Gu Chongyi was afraid that he would believe Concubine Xu's words and think that they had killed the little prince. She quickly refuted Concubine Xu, "I, Gu Xiaoyu, swear to heaven that I have never harmed the little prince! Nor have I secretly harmed Concubine Xu! Sister Cui has always been indifferent to the affairs of the harem and rarely moves around. She would never harm you!"
Concubine Xu sneered. In her opinion, there were no innocent people in the harem. However, she also understood that it was impossible for everyone in the harem to harm her. Even if they really had bad intentions towards her, not everyone dared or had the ability to do so.
Since she couldn't find out who killed her child, she had to find the woman who posed the greatest threat to her. Concubine Xu never took seriously people like Gu Chongyi, who were not favored and lived by currying favor with the imperial concubine. As long as she got rid of Cui Li, people like Gu Chongyi would not dare to jump in front of her.
Ji Zhaoyi and Ming Xiurong are just princesses of other countries. Concubine Xu doesn't think that Emperor Liang will treat them sincerely. He favors Ji Zhaoyi just to show the people of Ji and make them feel at ease.
As for the Empress, Concubine Xu was the most suspicious of her, but she knew her own limitations. Ji Shilan came from a very good family, having fought for Emperor Liang on the battlefield. Her brothers were too capable. It was impossible for Emperor Liang to depose her for Xu Yadan, but she… was still unwilling to accept it! Ji Shilan, Ji Shilan, is it you who has put me in this situation?
Cui Li is half dead and she will not have a good ending. Isn’t Ji Shilan the biggest winner?
Concubine Xu knelt on the ground, tears streaming down her face. She bowed deeply to Liang Sheng and banged her forehead against the ground with a loud bang.
Concubine Xu: "Your Majesty, I plead guilty. I was unwilling to see my son killed and lost my mind for a moment. The incident in the Imperial Garden was caused by me. I wrongly harmed the Imperial Concubine. I am filled with remorse. I do not ask Your Majesty to forgive me, but only ask Your Majesty to look after the deceased little prince and not vent your anger on the Xu family. The Xu family knows nothing!"
Concubine Xu: "I can commit suicide to apologize. With me by his side on the road to the underworld, the little prince will not be alone. But I beg the emperor to thoroughly investigate the truth behind the prince's murder. My son was healthy when he was four months old, but he has become increasingly weak this month. I searched the entire bedroom and found that my dress was stained with medicine, and the incense in the incense burner was also problematic, but it's too late!"
Concubine Xu: "I originally wanted to report this to the Empress, but Doctor Xu said that the fertility-sending Guanyin that the Empress sent was also soaked in drugs. I was frightened and how could I dare to tell anyone? I was afraid that I would lose my life!"
Concubine Xu knelt on the ground, crying heart-wrenchingly.
Empress Ji could no longer hold back and murmured "ridiculous". She glanced at the corner of her eye and found that the sisters Ji Zhaoyi and Ming Xiurong were standing not far behind her.
