Virtuous Ugly Empress - C181
What she wanted was to be single-minded.
How could she be so single-minded?
In the annals of history, which one of the empress asked to be single-minded? Empress Ma and Empress Xu both had a reputation for being wise, but they had asked to be single-minded before. Even if it was Empress Zhang from the filial school, she had also thought of giving the filial school the concubine, but she did not want the filial school, because when she was young, she had to suffer through hardships that no one else had ever endured.
The Xiao Sect only had Empress Zhang, and had only one son who was raised in the end. The righteous emperor was ridiculed for his absurdity, and it wasn’t that no one blamed the Xiao Sect for spoiling Empress Zhang.
Not to mention the three palaces and six courtyards.
Even if you were a commoner, who wouldn’t have three wives and four concubines? Even in the Duke Yongnian, there was still one or two concubines waiting on his, and her brothers all had concubines waiting on them as well. Why did she want to single-mindedly?
Only then did Zhu Yijun hear what Wang Rong said, and he was extremely shocked, to the point that he panicked and allowed her to leave. He was lying because he hadn’t thought that Wang Rong would actually tell him something that he couldn’t afford to give.
However, it was not easy for people to admit that they could not afford it, especially when it was the son of the Emperor. It was not that he could not afford it, it was just that he should not have it.
But so what? Wang Ronghe’s thoughts did not change. Now that he knew, he could act as if he didn’t know. Knowing that she was pretending to be sick in order to deceive herself, she got angry. After she finished, she was still better off. There was always something good about her that wasn’t sick, and Wang Rong was kind to her, so they could always return to the past.
But the queen, who had been lying to him, confessed where she should have lied.
Zhu Yijun was stifled in his heart, unable to be dispelled. He allowed others to pour wine, and drank a lot, becoming unconscious.
When Imperial Consort Zheng heard that his majesty had come out from the Kunning Palace, and seemed to have quarreled with the Empress, she had already calculated the time it would take to arrive at the Qianqing Palace s entrance. She estimated that Zhu Yijun was already drunk when the time came, and Zhang Cheng could not see clearly whether his majesty wished to see the Imperial Consort Zheng or not.
Zhang Cheng stomped his feet, allowing Imperial Consort Zheng to enter. It would be good if he could advise his majesty to drink less.
Imperial Consort Zheng was also shocked when she saw the emperor drinking, “Your Majesty.”
“Who are you?” Zhu Yijun squinted his eyes and asked.
“Your Majesty, I am Imperial Noble Consort Zheng, I am Yun’er.” Imperial Consort Zheng raised her wine cup, “Your majesty is drunk, don’t drink anymore, I will wait for your highness to settle down.”
“No, I want to drink. Bring the wine.” Zhu Yijun said.
“Your Majesty.” Imperial Consort Zheng saw the Emperor snatching the jug of wine, directly pouring it into his mouth, and said anxiously, “Your Majesty, if you’re unhappy, just send it at me, your majesty. Your majesty is trampling on my body, your concubine looks to be in pain.”
“Do you feel heartache for me?” Zhu Yijun seemed to have heard something funny as he ridiculed, “You like us?”
“This concubine naturally likes your majesty. If you like your majesty, you will feel heartache for him.” Imperial Consort Zheng grabbed Zhu Yijun’s hand and said sincerely.
Zhu Yijun waved her away, “Liar. I will not believe you. ”
“The empress has never loved me, so how can you love me?”
“They are only here to deal with us for the sake of your own prosperity.”
Imperial Consort Zheng didn’t hear his Majesty’s mutterings, but since her feelings for his Majesty had been doubted, he had to refute it. Imperial Consort Zheng crawled back and said to Zhu Yijun, “I don’t know if other people love your Majesty or not, but your feelings for his Majesty can be seen by the heavens.”
“Is that so?” Zhu Yijun looked at her drunkenly.
The Imperial Consort Zheng cuddled him, “If Your Majesty doesn’t believe me, then I will dig out my heart for Your Majesty to see.”
Zhu Yijun hugged Imperial Consort Zheng and looked at her, “You love us, really?”
Imperial Consort Zheng nodded firmly.
Zhu Yijun laughed and then hugged Imperial Consort Zheng tightly, “Alright, I am not completely ignored either.”
“I will grant you the title of Emperor Imperial Noble Consort, and I will also make the third son of the Emperor Crown Prince.” After Zhu Yijun finished speaking, he fell asleep drunk.
Imperial Consort Zheng’s eyes lit up as she looked at His Majesty. She even forgot to move the drunk emperor onto her bed at that moment. When she thought of what His Majesty had just said, she became so excited that she couldn’t control herself.
When Zhu Yijun woke up, he couldn’t really remember what he had said when he was drunk, so he handed it over to Zhang Cheng. Imperial Consort Zheng was given to him as Emperor Imperial Noble Consort, while the third son, Zhu Chang Xun, prepared a draft for the crown prince.
“The empress is still fine, what kind of Emperor Imperial Noble Consort is this?”
Zhang Cheng could not say that the emperor said that after he got drunk yesterday.
When Imperial Consort Zheng heard this, she was somewhat regretful. palace maid advised her as she looked towards the sky and said, “Since Your Majesty has said that, it means that Your Majesty has never thought about it before.”
“Then no matter what happens, I will make it happen.”
His Majesty suddenly stopped summoning the Beauty Wang, and Wang Zhixi sent people to investigate. She came to live with the Imperial Consort Lan, and after receiving her Holy Pet, she used silver to feed the Qianqing Palace to the servants. When the young eunuch with Qianqing Palace saw that the empress and his majesty were making a huge ruckus, he thought about selling it off to Wang Zhixi and said that his majesty had not summoned the Beauty Wang since the day the Kunning Palace came out. It was the servants who had been talking about the Beauty Wang in front of his majesty that caused him to move out of the way, but still, he did not call the Beauty Wang over.
His Majesty has always taken the empress’s thoughts very seriously.
After Wang Zhixi heard this, her entire body trembled. Indeed, from the first time she went to sleep, it was the Empress’s idea. Wang Rong and the Bodhisattva Queen, did all of their evil thoughts go to your little sister?
You can tolerate all the women in the palace giving birth to your majesty’s child, so why did you cut off my thoughts?
As if the string in Wang Zhixi’s mind had been broken, her mind went blank. She went straight to the Kunning Palace, wanting to seek justice from Wang Rong.
“Empress, where are you going so late at night?” The palace maid said anxiously.
Wang Zhixi had barged into the Kunning Palace, so the palace maid did not expect her to go straight in, and could only follow behind her. Wang Rong and the others had not thought of eating since yesterday, so at this time, when they were persuaded to eat, they lost their appetite, and seeing Wang Zhixi coming straight in, the people behind him kneeled down and begged for forgiveness.
“All of you, go out.” Wang Rong said to the palace maid, then said to Wang Zhixi, “Do you have anything to tell me?”
“Wang Rong He, you have such a malicious heart.” Wang Zhixi pointed to Wang Rong and said, “I’m your sister, but for father’s sake, do you have to kill me?”
Without reason, he looked at her. “Beauty Wang, you have gone overboard.”
“F * ck off.” Wang Zhixi said, “Is it even your turn to wipe my mouth when I talk to you? Do you really think of yourself as a loyal servant?
“You’re not rational today. Go back.” Wang Rong He said. Even if others were to hear your words, they would not be able to protect you. ”
“You want to protect me?” Wang Zhixi laughed coldly, “You wish for nothing more than for me to die.”
“I don’t want to hear your crazy talk here.” Wang Rong He said, “Send Beauty Wang back.”
shook off her hand, “Aren’t you a saint? Bodhisattva Queen, you are good to everyone, why are you being so cruel to me? I am your little sister, not your enemy. You can tolerate so many women, but not me. ”
“How can I not accept you? Haven’t I treated you well enough?” Wang Rong He said, “Just based on what you’ve done to me, I believe that I’ve already given father a lot of face by paying him back with good.”
“You’re giving Dad face?” Wang Zhixi asked sternly, “Are you giving father face so that I can’t become a mother? I told Your Majesty not to favor me, and to let me, as a beauty, live in this palace until I die of loneliness. ”
“It was the emperor’s idea, not mine, not to be a mother.” Wang Rong said with a cold face, “No matter what you think, I have a clear conscience.”
“If it wasn’t for you, how could His Majesty have let me take the evasive medicine from the first time I went to sleep? Can you say that you don’t know anything about it?” Wang Zhixi criticized.
“I read about it every day. Do you think I know anything about it?” Wang Rong He said, “Although I’m surprised, but His Majesty has his own reasons for doing so.”
“Are you just going to watch His Majesty treat me like this?” Wang Zhixi’s tears fell down in streams, “You know that if you drink too much of the medicine, your body will be in a bad condition. Every time I come to Yue Yang’s side, I’ll be in so much pain that I’d rather die.”
“You’re the empress, and you’re too high up. With just a wave of your hand, you raise your hand to your sister.”
“Your Majesty will listen to you. As long as you say it, your Majesty will not let me drink that bitter and deadly soup. I might even have a child of my own.”
Wang Zhixi cried, “I don’t mind being your consort. I know you are the empress and if you don’t die, His Majesty won’t bring me to a higher level. I only want a child, a child, so that I won’t have to suffer so much in the palace. Why is it that you can’t fulfill my little wish? ”
“If you can’t give birth to your own, can’t you watch me give birth?”
“You can tell His Majesty about these matters. There’s no need to complain to me. ” Wang Rong He said, “I know if I can tell His Majesty not to let you drink the antidote after this. Will His Majesty listen to me? Maybe he will.”
“Are you very happy to know that I can’t have children?” Wang Rong He said, “If you can be happy that I can’t have children, then why can’t I act as if I don’t know that His Majesty has given you medicine to avoid having children?”
Wang Zhixi’s breath tightened, “You have always been very kind.”
“I’m kind, I’m not a good person either.” Wang Rong He said, “I won’t hurt you, but since the king has made his own decision, why should I say anything about being a good person?”
“So this is what you’re thinking.” Wang Zhixi shook his head, “You are so scary. Other people thought that you were a good person, but you aren’t. You lied to everyone.”
“Are you a kind person?” Wang Rong said angrily. Right now, she was very sensitive to the word ‘cheating’. You are not a kind person, what stance do you have to blame me? ”
“But what’s on my mind, I’m showing it in the open.” Wang Zhixi said.
“That’s because you’re stupid.” Wang Rong He said.
“You think that I can’t give birth to a child? I can’t just watch as Imperial Noble Consort Zheng gives birth to a child that will ascend to the top. Do you think that I would want to borrow your stomach to give birth to a child?” Wang Rong asked, “That’s why you told His Majesty that you wanted to have children to ease my worries.”
“Yes, His Majesty won’t allow you to have children. This time, he asked for my opinion.” Wang Rong said as she looked at Wang Zhixi, “My answer is, I am the empress, the direct mother of a prince. Compared to me, your child, is no different from any other child that you conceive as an concubine.”
“How much sister love can you and I have left? You actually thought that I would rely on your belly just because of your blood relationship with me? ” “Wang Rong’s tone was harsh.” Mother is not even in the same heart as me, so how can I expect her child to be in the same heart as me? ”
“So His Majesty no longer dotes on me.” Wang Zhixi said. Just because of a single word you said. ”
“If you feel that you can’t accept this, then go and sue His Majesty for your grievances.” Wang Rong He said.
“Aren’t your luck just a bit better than mine?” Wang Zhixi felt wronged, she didn’t even need her to say anything, the emperor would already think for her, what right do I have to not give birth to children?
“I’m not as good as you in any way. In fact, I admire His Majesty wholeheartedly. As for you, you didn’t even want to enter the palace from the beginning, and even had Father use money to find a relationship with him and cut your name. ”
“Why did you enter the palace?”
“If you didn’t enter the palace, you wouldn’t have been an empress. Even if I didn’t become an empress, with my character and looks, I could still hold a high position now. His Majesty wouldn’t have let me drink the medicine to torture myself.”
“We are both direct wives, and my appearance is much gentler than yours. Why do Grandmother and Father like you more, and why does His Majesty like you more too?” Wang Zhixi roared. Everyone in the room said that I was better than you, and I should marry better than you. The situation between you and I should not be like this, we should be the ones transferred over. ”
“If you want to transfer with me, then you should transfer from the womb.” Wang Rong He said, “If you can’t figure it out, then just treat it as your mother’s sin. You have to pay it back.”
“What do you mean?” Wang Zhixi looked at her. Mother marries Father, but Father is always thinking about your mother. I’ve watched Mother’s life since I was a child, and the more I love Mother, the more I hate you, hate your mother, hate you, die in a restless manner, and also want to occupy Father’s heart. ”
“If it wasn’t for your mother, my mother wouldn’t have died. If you and I must say that we hate each other, it is I who hates you. It is not up to you to hate me. ” Wang Rong He looked at her and said.
“What nonsense are you talking about? Your mother died because of her. What does that have to do with my mother?” Wang Zhixi lost control and shouted.
“If you don’t believe it, you can just wait until the next time Lady Cui enters the palace. You can ask her and she will know. “You’re asking her, how did she marry into the estate?”
Back then, she was unmarried and took a fancy to his father because she thought that she was from a noble family. She was a little proud and she was not willing to be a concubine because she thought that she was from a noble family, so she caught sight of his father hiding in the dark and refused to let him go. She told her father and brother to put pressure on him, and also went to find my mother, saying that she was pregnant with her father’s flesh and blood and forced my mother to give up the throne and my mother to die.
“Impossible.” Wang Zhixi shook her head and said. If it wasn’t for his father’s progress, her mother would never have married his father. It’s because of you, that you look more and more like your mother. When my father saw you, he would think of your mother and he would just treat her coldly. ”
“Don’t be moved by your mother’s self-pity. You have been hostile towards me since you were young. Our sisterhood did not exist from the very beginning. Her current life is her own fault. Just like your current situation, it’s also yours. ”
“Back then, at the Chuxiu Palace, your situation was great, and it was you who misunderstood the words of others, taking in the loathing of the empress dowager and the empress dowager. After that, you were unsatisfied and used my name to privately meet with the empress dowager.”
If you hadn’t sent yourself into the palace first, if I hadn’t insisted on staying in the palace, I wouldn’t have let you stay in the palace and let you out. With your status as the direct daughter of the mansion, you could have married a good family.
It was also because of His Majesty’s restlessness that she had the leisure to argue with him. Otherwise, she would have been dragged out with her mouth covered by hands. When people were angry, many of them would rush him with words. When he calmed down, he would know what to say and what not to say. He would not bring trouble upon himself.
“And then you’ll kneel in front of me for the rest of your life, forever unable to stand up straight. My mother won’t be able to beat your mother, and her daughter won’t be able to defeat her daughter either?” Wang Zhixi muttered. She had truly suffered a terrible blow. She did not believe that her mother’s past was so terrible, but she also knew that Wang Rong was not one to speak nonsense.
“Aren’t you kneeling in front of me now?” Wang Rong He found it funny.
“Leave. If you don’t leave, I will truly punish you for your disrespect.” Wang Rong He said. Even though you are only a beauty in the palace, no one has ever dared to look at you as if you were a beauty. Because of me. If I were to punish you, you would know that you are now living an immortal life. ”
Wang Zhixi felt disheartened, she had always stubbornly wanted to fight for her mother, and had never given up. In the royal family, as long as they could have children, it was not too late. But now, she was truly a little tired and wanted to give up. Her mother, who was fighting for her, originally didn’t have any grounds to complain at all.
It was too difficult for her to cover his face. Furthermore, since Wang Rong had said this, his majesty wouldn’t allow her to have children. Now that she no longer had any favors, how could she possibly have any more in the future? After she had said those words to Wang Rong He, even sisters would not have a cloth to cover their face with. Like she said, perhaps she was going to live the life of a true beauty.
So what if she was beautiful? In her battle against Wang Rong, she had completely lost. Wang Zhixi looked at Wang Rong He, and only had the last bit of unwillingness to let her stab him, “I did not live a good life, I asked for it. As for the empress, the most respected woman in the world, the Empress who everyone praised, was born with no children, did you ask for it yourself? ”
“When did I say I couldn’t have a baby?” Wang Rong said coldly, “I can give birth whenever I want, do I need your permission?”
Wang Zhixi was greatly shaken, “Are you not sick?”
“I’m not sick. I’m very healthy.” Wang Rong He said, “If I want to, I can give birth to seven or eight of them.”
After a long string of words, Wang Rong pressed her hand on her chest and felt weak. Ever since yesterday’s arrival, she had not even been able to sleep soundly, so her body was only barely holding up.
Pathless had long gone out right after Wang Zhixi had said those words, herself guarding the door, so people would stay far away and not hear what she was saying inside.
Wang Rong looked at Wang Zhixi who seemed to be at a loss, “You’re still not leaving, do you really want me to get someone to ask you out?”
Wang Zhixi suddenly laughed, her laughter was extremely terrifying, Wang Rong looked at her, “What are you doing?”
“I can’t compare to you in this life.” Wang Zhixi walked to the lampstand, and waved her hand to remove the lamps. The lamp oil was poured on the curtains, and in a moment the flames were all over the lampstand.
Wang Zhixi held on tightly to Wang Rong and her. I don’t want to live anymore, and my sister will die with me. If we were to be reborn together, we will have a chance to fight again in our next lives. ”
Wang Rong wanted to struggle free, but Wang Zhixi suddenly unleashed her divine power, causing her body to become displeased, so she could only watch as the fire spread indoors.
When Wang Yunhe saw the fire, he suddenly didn’t want to struggle anymore.
Die.
It seemed to be able to resolve the stalemate between her and His Majesty.
Yesterday, she went to coax His Majesty, but instead of coaxing him, she became even more stiff. Of course, she would continue to coax His Majesty. Perhaps she would coax him well, perhaps she would not be able to coax him well.
As for herself, she still did not like being together with others, but in the future, she would have to put her mind at ease. If the Emperor were to find out, no matter how lenient he was, he would not be able to tolerate her.
The days that followed were clearly going to be bitter. It would be better to just die and get it over with.
Pathless looked back from time to time to check on the situation. When he realized something was wrong, he shouted, “We’re out of water. Someone, quickly come and save the fire.”
She pushed the door open and went inside. Because the fire was ignited from the curtain in the compartment, her first glance revealed that it was actually a sea of fire.
“Empress —” With her heart in her throat, she rushed in without a care.
