She couldn't help but suspect that the Queen had ulterior motives. Murong Kai was her son, and her mother hadn't done anything yet, but the Queen was so anxious to plead for him. Was she saying that she was an unqualified mother
Noble Consort Jin had a pretty good relationship with the Queen, but when it came to Murong Kai, she lost all her rationality. She even thought that the reason why Murong Kai was so obsessed with wanting Ah Man was closely related to the Queen.
"Your Majesty, I am Akai's mother. No one else should interfere in how I teach my child."
"Empress Jin, I am Akai's biological mother. I have been taking care of him all these years. I am more qualified than anyone else to decide how to punish him in this matter."
The Queen didn't expect that Imperial Noble Concubine Jin would not protect her own child and even looked like she was going to punish her severely.
"You took care of him until he was repeatedly assassinated by the Dong family and almost lost his life. I haven't found any fault with him yet, but you come to me and act like a legitimate mother? My child does not need anyone else to take care of him."
Imperial Noble Consort Jin was extremely annoyed, and she also felt sorry for the grievances Murong Kai had suffered, but she was trying to make up for it. She wanted to give him the best, and in her eyes, the Queen's protection at this time was her deliberate indulgence of A Kai.
"Your Majesty, you said that the title of Imperial Noble Consort is equal to that of the Vice Empress. If someone with this rank is not qualified to raise her own children, please take back the title. I cannot bear it."
Although Imperial Noble Consort Jin had already become cold towards Murong Zheng, she knew that he gave her this position to make up for it, so she brought up the position of Imperial Noble Consort. As long as Murong Zheng did not take it back, she would be the final winner.
It has to be said that Imperial Noble Consort Jin calculated Murong Zheng's thoughts so accurately that Murong Zheng expressed his opinion right after she finished speaking.
"Empress, Imperial Concubine Jin is Akai's biological mother after all, so just follow her wishes. As the saying goes, parents who love their children will plan for them in the long run. This punishment is also to let him know what to do and what not to do."
After hearing Murong Zheng's words, the Queen's face turned pale. She looked at Imperial Noble Consort Jin pleadingly, but she was indifferent.
"Your Majesty, since you have decided on the punishment, I will leave first." Imperial Noble Concubine Jin got what she wanted, so naturally she didn't want to stay with Murong Zheng for long, and she didn't want to see the Queen's disappointed expression.
"Empress Jin, you will regret this." The Queen suddenly spoke as she looked at Imperial Concubine Jin's back. Imperial Concubine Jin paused for a moment but eventually walked away.
The queen looked at Murong Zheng and suddenly laughed.
"The matter has been settled. If the Queen has anything to do, just go and do it." After Imperial Noble Concubine Jin left, Murong Zheng felt guilty for no reason as he stared into the Queen's eyes.
"Your Majesty, you only thought about making up to Concubine Jin, but forgot that you also owed Akai. In order to make up to Concubine Jin, you hurt Akai so wantonly. You are really..."
"Akai has never been loved by his parents. Now, his mother has finally come out, but his parents teamed up to bully him. If he had known this would happen, he shouldn't have advised me to let you know the truth."
The queen really regretted it. Compared with the children, the grievances and joys of their generation were insignificant.
But the fact is done and she can't change it.
"Queen, I'm tired. You go down first." Murong Zheng calmed down at this moment. He knew what the Queen said, but he really couldn't refuse Concubine Jin's request.
The queen looked at Murong Zheng, hesitated for a long time, and finally couldn't help but sigh, then turned and left.
After leaving the imperial study, the Queen remembered Murong Kai's instructions. Murong Kai even refused to accept the imperial edict for the sake of the little girl A'man, so he should indeed let her know.
But the Queen didn't know that while she was thinking about sending a letter to A'man, people in Concubine Jin's palace had already told A'man the news of Murong Zheng's marriage.
