"Emperor... Your Majesty," the Queen Mother's lips trembled violently, but the voice she made was like a gnat. Zhong Zhiheng was so busy that he put his ears to it, and then he heard too many intermittent words, "Ming Wei... Where is Ming Wei?" Ai Jia wants to... want to see Ming Wei... "
"Mother, you are confused. Ming Wei is now in Ninggu Pagoda, not in the capital." Zhong Zhiheng looked at the empress dowager's cloudy eyes with complicated eyes. At this moment, his mood is also very complicated. He must be thinking about Xu's family, and even asked him to promise to revive Xu's family before he died. After all, the Queen Mother has been bothering about Xu's family all her life. On the way here just now, he He had already thought about how to deal with the queen mother, but he never expected that at this moment, Zhong Mingwei was the queen mother's biggest concern.
"Heng'er...you have to protect Ming Wei well, he...he is so pitiful," the queen mother suddenly held her hand tightly, so hard that Zhong Zhiheng felt pain, she panted, While pushing himself up vigorously, he looked at Zhong Zhiheng anxiously, "Heng'er, no matter how many crimes the Xu family has committed, none of it has anything to do with Ming Wei. Now Xu family... the Xu family has collapsed. You are about to die, you... you should feel relieved about Ming Wei, right? Don't... don't let him suffer in Ninggu Tower, let... let him go back to Beijing, okay?"
"Queen, it was never because of Xu's family that I lost my hair." Zhong Zhiheng felt as if his throat was about to burn, he swallowed hard, and opened his mouth with some difficulty.
"Then... that's why? Why do you... you hate... Ming Wei so much? I... I don't understand," the queen mother stared at Zhong Zhiheng, panting more and more, "Aren't you the last one?" Do you like Si... Siyao's? Siyao just... just leave Ming Wei as his son, you... how can you bear to treat him like this? You are not afraid that after a hundred years, under the nine springs, seeing Siyao, you... what will you do? Explain, explain to Siyao? It is said that the poison of a tiger does not eat its offspring, but Ming, Mingwei is your own flesh and blood after all!"
"No, it's not..." Zhong Zhiheng shook his head slowly, holding his lips bitterly and said, "If he is, that would be great, I will hand over the whole world to him."
"Heng'er, promise mother, treat Ming Wei well," the queen mother seemed not to hear Zhong Zhiheng's words, and was still rambling on, "When Siyao was pregnant with him, she suffered a lot. In the first few months, she ate...whatever she ate and vomited. , I almost didn’t spit out the gall, and then... I didn’t vomit anymore, but the heat was too heavy, she, she couldn’t eat anymore, such a thin girl, her arms and legs were as thin as a stick, she just The belly keeps getting bigger and bigger, and Aijia feels distressed when she sees it. It's not easy to be able to last for eight months... You can see that Siyao worked so hard to give birth to Ming Wei for you, and... also You can't do that to him..."
Zhong Zhiheng froze all over suddenly, he stared at the lifelike peony flowers embroidered on the quilt, suddenly, he held the empress dowager's shoulders with both hands, and asked in a low voice urgently: "Mother, did you just say that Siyao She... is she Ming Wei who was born less than a month ago?"
The Queen Mother was already speechless, not only did she speak, her pupils began to dilate.
"Mother! Tell me! Tell me!" Zhong Zhiheng kept asking, shaking the empress dowager's shoulders vigorously with both hands, until the empress dowager's chest stopped rising and falling, and he finally stopped.
