The Royal Highness - C43

Actually, you’re in love with the Queen.

The kind-hearted empress dowager was angered to the point of tears by these words. Who wouldn’t help their son? But even if her son forced her to such an extent, what else could she say?

But there were tears in the Empress Dowager’s eyes, and no tears in her eyes. She did not wish to win the Empress Dowager’s sympathy with her own pity; she hoped that the Empress Dowager would be able to truly help her, and that her grandmother and mother would still be able to rely on her when she left this world one day.

Shen Zhe looked at his brother calmly. “This matter was wrong from the very beginning, your good intentions and arrangements were all wrong. As for whether Qiu Miner and I are alright, the fact that she was able to return means that there is no need to explain anything. Brother, she shouldn’t exist between us. Qiu Miner is your empress, your wife, and she’s just my sister-in-law. If she exists between us, then from now on, the monarch will not be the monarch, and the brother will not be the brother. Today, I will send my sister-in-law back, and we will have nothing to do with each other from now on.

After the jade bone fan that the emperor took advantage of was gone, he could not use these tiny movements to vent the anger in his heart, nor could he calm himself down easily. His entire body was filled with an impetuous aura, and the reason why he was so agitated was because he knew in his heart that he was wrong!

When he made the decision before the wedding, the emperor was simply annoyed by this matter. However, ever since he had seen the empress, Shen Zhe had seen an appearance that he had never seen before on the emperor.

“Bro, actually, you fell for the empress, right? But she ignored you time and time again.” After Shen Zhe asked this question, he lowered his face and waited for the Emperor’s fury.

The Emperor, who could not find a fan, could only put his hands behind his back, as if he did not want his younger brother to see the expression on his face. He would never fall out with his beloved younger brother because of a woman, so he said coldly, “You can leave now. The mother’s illness is most likely an act, so you don’t have to worry.”

As Shen Zhe left, the tense and anxious atmosphere in the palace eased. Zhou Huai had met the emperor a few times, and the emperor had suddenly calmed down a lot, he did not dare to study the saint’s intent. He only dutifully reported on the empress dowager’s health and what the empress was doing right now. He had secretly gone to see Qing Ya, and only then did he understand what had happened. He did not know what Qing Ya would do next, whether she was alive or dead, whether she stayed or not. At the moment, she shouldn’t be pleading with the emperor. The only ones who could do so were the empress or empress dowager.

As the night deepened, because the Qinzhou Palace was located in a remote area, after nightfall, the surroundings became completely pitch-black. The lights in the palace gradually extinguished, leaving behind only the hazy and hazy image of a bright moon. In the middle of the night, the palace maids rushed to close the windows of the empress’s room. Seeing that the empress was sitting up, they all blamed themselves for disturbing the empress, only to realize that she had not slept at all. She took a lantern from the palace maid and walked down the hall on her soft shoes, the rain pouring down from the eaves like a waterfall, splashing on her body and feeling the coolness through her clothes.

“You may leave.” The people of the Life Palace kept their distance from these orders.

The rain was thick and dense, blocking people’s line of sight. Only by relying on the lantern in her hand could they vaguely see her figure.

“Grandmother … “I miss you, I want to go home …”

The sound of the rain overshadowed her words. It also overshadowed the sound of her crying after she finished her sentence.

When Xiang Ye walked over from the other side of the corridor, he saw Qiu Miner with a single glance. The lantern was currently falling from her hands, and her delicate body was curled up into a ball on the ground.
