The emperor didn't have time to eat dinner, so he hurriedly drove away from Yunxiu Palace.
By the time the emperor's car arrived at the Taimiao Temple, it was already midnight.
However, the temple was still brightly lit.
When the imperial guard and the palace people saw the emperor coming, they all knelt down and saluted.
Luo Qinghan walked over without looking sideways, and went straight into the bedroom where the Empress Dowager lived.
The imperial doctor was staring at someone feeding the empress dowager with medicine, and when they saw the emperor coming, everyone hurriedly greeted him.
Luo Qinghan called the imperial doctor up and asked about the condition of the empress dowager.
The imperial doctor said everything one by one.
Since the incident that Luo Yanzhi and the Empress Dowager murdered the emperor, the Empress Dowager has been severely beaten.
The imperial doctor has always tried to find a way to treat her, but unfortunately it has little effect.
Seeing that her body is getting worse and worse, now she is running out of oil, and there is not much time left.
The Imperial Physician spoke more obscurely.
To put it bluntly, it means that the empress dowager may kick her legs and close her eyes at any time. I hope the emperor will come to see her as soon as possible, so that she will not even see her old man for the last time.
Luo Qinghan quietly listened to the description of the imperial doctor, and finally waved his hand to signal everyone to step back.
After everyone was gone, only Luo Qinghan and the Empress Dowager were left in the huge room.
The Empress Dowager had been ill for too long, her whole body was thin and out of shape, her cheeks and eye sockets were deeply sunken, her skin was sallow and gray, her lips were bloodless, and her hair was gray and dry.
She seemed to have been drained of energy, leaving only a shriveled and weak body.
Luo Qinghan stared at her for a moment, then whispered.
"Grandmother."
The Empress Dowager raised her eyelids with great effort, revealing a pair of gray-brown turbid pupils.
She looked at the person standing next to her, her lips moved as if she wanted to say something, but she was too weak to speak clearly.
Luo Qinghan knelt down on one knee and leaned over.
He heard the Empress Dowager speak slowly in a hoarse and weak voice.
"Your Majesty, I'm sorry."
Luo Qinghan was slightly startled.
He looked at the Empress Dowager who was close at hand. Could it be that she suddenly thought about it before she died, and planned to repair the relationship with him
But he quickly rejected this speculation.
Because the Empress Dowager never addressed him as Her Majesty.
When outsiders are present, she usually calls him the emperor, and when there is no one in private, she calls him by his first name.
Luo Qinghan asked, "Are you talking to me?"
The Empress Dowager turned a deaf ear to his inquiry, her pale lips opened and closed, and said weakly.
"Your Majesty, I'm sorry, I killed you."
Luo Qinghan froze all over.
He reacted quickly, and the Empress Dowager mistook him for Emperor Sheng Chang!
She was apologizing to the late Sheng Changdi.
The empress dowager's eyes gradually filled with tears: "I'm sorry, don't blame me, I'm all for my son, I'm all to protect him."
Luo Qinghan didn't speak any more, just looked at her so quietly.
The Empress Dowager choked: "I actually don't want to hurt you, after all... After all, we have loved each other, but I can't help it. If you don't die, my son will never be able to become emperor."
She is not without affection for Emperor Sheng Chang, but the affection between them is completely incomparable to the mother-son affection between her and Emperor Sheng Yong.
The sanity of the Empress Dowager is becoming more and more blurred.
As if she really saw Emperor Sheng Chang, her body trembled slightly, and her emotions became more excited.
"Don't look at me like that. I don't want to. If you didn't insist on appointing King Ping An as the heir, I wouldn't have poisoned your medicine."
"And those Taoists, you would rather listen to their rhetoric than believe me, and let those Taoists almost kill my son."
"It's you who's sorry for us first! It's you who's inhumane first, and then we're injustice!"
…
Luo Qinghan quietly listened to her finish.
When she stopped talking, he slowly asked.
"So, what Tianyan Zhenren said is the truth, and the emperor's grandfather was indeed killed by you and the emperor?"
The Empress Dowager suddenly regained consciousness as if returning to the light.
Her complexion even revealed a somewhat abnormal blushing.
She finally saw who the person in front of her was, and her expression suddenly became ugly.
"Why are you here?"
Luo Qinghan said calmly: "The imperial doctor said that you are dying, I will come to see you."
The Empress Dowager sneered: "Are you here to see Ai's family for the last time?"
Luo Qinghan admitted frankly: "Yes."
The Empress Dowager was stunned, and the hatred in her eyes was even greater.
She didn't know what she thought, and suddenly pulled the corner of her mouth, revealing a malicious smile.
"Do you think that when Ai's family is dead, no one will be able to threaten you in the future
Haha, you are too naive, even if there is no Aijia, there will be other people coming to crusade you.
God will not allow a beast like you to be the emperor.
The sky will reward you, sooner or later, you will pay the price for your evil deeds! "
Luo Qing asked coldly: "When you poisoned the emperor's grandfather, did you ever think that there will be a reward in the sky?"
The Queen Mother's expression stiffened.
Her eyes widened in disbelief: "How do you know..."
Before she could finish her sentence, she suddenly closed her mouth.
Luo Qinghan: "You were confused just now, and you told me everything. The grandfather did not die of illness, but was killed by you and the emperor. It is you who really killed the king."
The Empress Dowager hissed and retorted: "You are talking nonsense! Ai's family has never done such a thing!"
Luo Qinghan didn't express her opinion on her rebuttal, just asked lightly.
"Will you feel guilty when you go underground and see your grandfather?"
The Great Empress Dowager was like a rooster strangled by her neck, and her voice instantly became hoarse.
She already knew that her time was short, and what she was most afraid of now was how to face Sheng Changdi after death
The more the empress dowager thinks, the more scared she becomes.
She seemed to have been greatly stimulated, her breathing became rapid, her face became more and more red, her eyes widened, and finally she rolled her eyes and fainted.
Luo Qinghan stood up, opened the door, and said to the imperial doctor waiting outside.
"The Empress Dowager passed out, you go have a look."
The imperial doctor hurriedly entered the house and began to treat the empress dowager.
The palace maids and eunuchs were instructed to turn around.
The house was filled with a strong medicinal smell, and the atmosphere was dull and depressing.
Luo Qinghan stood under the porch with his hands behind his back, quietly looking at the flowers and trees in the courtyard, his heart was full of ridicule.
Their royal family seems to be rich and noble, and it is a place that everyone in the world yearns for. Countless people hope that they can be reincarnated into the royal family in the next life and become a member of this rich and prosperous scene.
As everyone knows, hidden under the bustling scene is a rotting skeleton.
Father and son kill each other, siblings kill each other, husband and wife turn against each other.
The piles and piles are filled with the rotten smell, which is disgusting.
