The damn son sneezed.
That’s right, although he successfully climbed over the wall and entered Yonghe Palace and met Concubine Yu, the emperor was not able to stay overnight in Yonghe Palace. It was not because the pregnant woman was not as gentle as before, nor because Concubine Yu was hypocritical and did not let him stay overnight, but because... Concubine Yu, who pointed out that there was no need for them to argue, also blamed the emperor for another thing.
"The emperor said such outrageous words and left the prince in Qingning Palace. He even wandered around the palace and even stayed in the palace of the imperial concubine. So for the queen mother, doesn't it mean that she has raised her son for nothing for decades? If I had gone through ten months of pregnancy and worked hard to give birth to a son like this, then I would only hate myself for not strangling him to death when I gave birth to him!"
Scolded! The emperor touched his nose and thought of the past. When the couple was loving and harmonious at first, the queen's face would show her joy, sadness or anger, so she was particularly lively and attractive. But when she became irritable and suspicious, she often said something sarcastic and didn't say it in a nice way, but had to ridicule her in a roundabout way, so he became more and more distant from her.
The other concubines were either cautious or fearful in front of him, but Concubine Yu... She dared to scold him! Compared to the harsh rebuke today, when people pointed at him and scolded him, it was much more intense than this time. At that time, people seemed to scold him... A lustful and cowardly tyrant
It was at that time that he learned that the queen had beaten to death a palace maid who had answered him in the West Garden for no reason. God knows he had never had any lustful thoughts, and he didn't even remember what the palace maid looked like, but he ended up killing a person. Even though he was the emperor, many people fell to the ground because of his red pen, but that time was different.
That was something he could never tolerate! It was after that incident that he and the queen had a big fight and truly broke up.
Hua Qi, who was not far behind the emperor, put his hands in his sleeves, wrapped in a black cloak that covered him tightly, as if to hide him in the night. However, he hoped that the emperor would forget about him blending into the night, but he didn't expect that the emperor didn't forget at all, and instead asked without turning his head: "Do you think I should go to Qingning Palace to apologize to the Queen Mother?"
I can't live like this. You're asking me about such a life-threatening matter. I might as well stay in the Duke of Zhao's mansion and be an idler! Hua Qi exhaled angrily, but said indifferently, "If the emperor wants to go, he can go. If he doesn't want to go, he doesn't have to go."
This was the same as saying nothing. However, the emperor did not get angry after hearing this, because it was the truth. But he did not want to go... but he knew he should go. He heard the sound of night watchmen and bells ringing in the distance, but these people seemed to have clairvoyance and super hearing, and tacitly avoided his route.
At least, he didn't see a single person on his way from the Qianqing Palace to the Yonghe Palace, and then from the Yonghe Palace to the Qingning Palace. If the guards in the palace were really so lax... then the grand palace would become an ordinary house where thieves could run rampant. So, he couldn't help but tilt his head slightly and asked, "How did you do it?"
