Chapter 338 Arranging a Funeral Part 2
Changyang stared at the queen mother in a daze, saying that the emperor's sister-in-law was like a thorn in her throat, she knew that this disaster could not be escaped.
Just because she knew that the royal family had so much secrets, she was enough to die if she had hidden Emperor Deyuan.
"For the sake of years of companionship, I would like to give the eldest princess a way out."
Changyang didn't want to die so humiliatedly. She was born as a glorious eldest princess, so she must be decent until she dies.
The Empress Dowager seemed to have been drained of all her strength, and she no longer had the energy to argue with Changyang anymore.
"Aunt Zhi!"
Aunt Zhi understood and handed it over to the poisonous wine that had been prepared long ago. When she saw the poisonous wine, she was a little unwilling to give up and tried to save it: "Sister-in-law, do you really have to reach this point?"
The Empress Dowager squinted his eyes and Changyang; "When you ask Prince Mo to go to the border town to win over those old subordinates, you should have thought that sooner or later this day."
She had already turned a blind eye to the relationship between the past, but the other party dared to openly hide the late emperor.
The crime should be punished!
Changyang said chokingly, the empress dowager could even kill her own son, so what ability could she persuade her?
She was desperate and gave up on her struggle.
So she tried her best to pick up the wine glass as smoothly as possible, unable to explain what it felt, and drank the poisonous wine in tears.
When the poison broke out, she kowtowed to the Queen Mother. For the sake of the future of the Princess' Mansion, she explained some secret stakes left by the late emperor and the deployment of the late emperor.
"Sister-in-law, for my mother, I just beg you to spare the Princess's Mansion." Changyang kowtowed desperately, even picked up the confession letter beside him, and began to write down his sins, and stated that he had voluntarily died. He also wrote down the plot of how to conspiracy between the late emperor and Yongyi Bo.
Seeing this, the empress dowager's expression calmed down a little, and she asked someone to send these crimes to Dali Temple.
Changyang did not wait until his death for a word of guarantee from the Queen Mother, and she closed her eyes unwillingly.
Although the blood in Cihe Palace has been wiped clean, the air is still filled with a fishy smell and it floats in the sky for a long time.
She couldn't smell the fishy smell, and stood up staggeringly, with Aunt Zhi's support, left the inner hall and came to the small pool next to the side hall, breathing in fresh air.
Aunt Zhi advised: "Empress Dowager, you..."
"Do you think the Ai family is cruel and ruthless and don't even let go of their own son?" the empress dowager sneered.
"I dare not."
"How could Ai's family be willing to give up?" Who knows the pain in her heart? It's really unreasonable. She has given her many opportunities openly and secretly, but it's a pity that Xiao Wang is soft and has repeatedly broken through her bottom line.
"The Ai family is already ashamed of their two grandsons, and they don't want the emperor to be criticized. It's too hard for them to reach this point today." The Empress Dowager smiled bitterly: "King Xiao has enjoyed the glory and wealth of twenty-five years, which is worth it. I just hope that he will not join the imperial family in the next life."
The empress dowager could not see the emperor all day long and gave almost all her favor to King Xiao. Her youngest son had never suffered any grievances.
Isn't it good to be a confused and idle prince?
"Mother!" Xiao Jingheng rushed over quickly, panting heavily. He was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe and was a little thinner. He stood on the wind gust and looked at the Queen Mother with worried eyes.
When Xiao Jingheng learned about what happened in Cihegong, he was extremely shocked and immediately put down what he had and came to the empress dowager.
He thought the Empress Dowager just gave King Xiao a profound lesson and asked the two children to separate themselves from each other.
But I didn't expect the method to be so decisive.
"The Emperor is here." The Empress Dowager smiled at Xiao Jingheng, her voice as gentle as a gust of wind: "Some things don't need to be taken to heart. The Ai family has never experienced it at this age?"
It is not the first time that my close relatives have separated.
Xiao Jingheng's eyes were slightly red. He sat beside the empress dowager, holding the empress dowager's hand, and his voice was hoarse: "Mother, wait for my son to stabilize his country, and take you out for a walk."
The Empress Dowager did not refuse and said in a deep voice, "I have been trapped in this life, and it has not been a few months. The Ai family will guard the southern end for you and wait for you to come back."
She had experienced too many right and wrong, and had long been tired of palace life. The Empress Dowager promised: "If you leave with confidence, the Ai family will definitely eliminate dissidents for Beibei and let him sit firmly on the throne."
Speaking of this, Xiao Jingheng suddenly felt a little sorry for Beibei, but this matter had been arranged long ago.
"Thank you, Mother."
The Empress Dowager in turn comforted Xiao Jingheng and tried to persuade him: "Your emperor's brother is weak. If he doesn't die, his country will be unstable, so you don't have to take it to heart."
As for Xi'er, the empress dowager was a little embarrassed. She didn't want Xi'er to live as Prince Xiao again.
"I will find a suitable family for Xi'er to hide his identity and not let him know his identity."
The Queen Mother nodded: "The Ai family means the same thing, so just do what you said."
"yes."
After chatting with the queen mother for a few more words, he felt relieved when he saw that her expression was not so sad: "The mother is resting well these days, and the son is in charge of the funeral as soon as possible."
"Thank you again, the emperor." The empress dowager said helplessly.
