Chapter 252 Demoting Wife to Concubine 29
At the same time, the empress dowager also fainted. Even after a few days, Jiang Chunxi and the empress dowager were still bedridden. Both of them were deeply shocked and looked sick. It seemed that they could prepare for their funeral.
Of course, Jiang Chunxi was just pretending, but the Queen Mother's health was truly broken and she probably wouldn't live long!
But it was true. It was she who forced the emperor to see Shen Jingyao, causing the emperor to lose six children at once. Not to mention that the empress dowager could not forgive herself, even the emperor hated the empress dowager to death.
"My lady, please take this as a request from your servant. Please drink the medicine." Chenxia held the medicine bowl in her hand and begged her master to drink the medicine. "How can you get better if you don't drink the medicine?"
"I don't want to drink it. Take the medicine away." Jiang Chunxi turned her back and said:
"Your Majesty," At this time, the emperor also walked in from outside. Chenxia saw the emperor as if she saw a savior, "Your Majesty, please quickly persuade the queen! The queen has been refusing to take the medicine. If she continues like this, I'm afraid her health will really collapse and she will never get better."
"Give me the medicine, you go down first!" The emperor sat down on the bed and took the medicine from Chenxia's hand.
After Chenxia gave the medicine to the emperor, she and Chenxi walked away wiping their tears.
"Chunxi, get up and drink the medicine!" The emperor said in a tired voice, "Are you deliberately punishing me by refusing to take the medicine?"
"Chun Xi, I can't hold on any longer," the emperor's voice choked with sobs, "If anything happens to you, what will I do?"
"Wuwu!" Jiang Chunxi started to cry, but still refused to turn around, "Why, why is God so cruel? Since he gave me hope, why did he let me suffer such a blow?"
Jiang Chunxi then turned around and sat up, looking at the emperor angrily: "It's all your fault. I told you not to see Shen Jing, but you ignored my words. God must have seen that you are stubborn and stubborn, so he withdrew his mercy on you and let Concubine Shen kill your offspring again."
"Woo woo! I won't live anymore. What's the point of living? I have no hope for the future anyway. Rather than walking behind you and suffering from others' suffering, it's better to walk ahead of you. At least I can be honored after my death."
"Chun Xi, please don't be like this," the emperor cried, "You don't know how much I regret and how much I hate myself. Why, why didn't I listen to you? Why that night when my mother forced me, I..."
"What a bullshit queen mother," Jiang Chunxi angrily interrupted the emperor's voice, "Concubine Shen is a vicious woman, and the queen mother is an old vicious woman. She and Concubine Shen are the real mother and daughter. They don't treat you as a son, but you are so good. You have lost six children because of the queen mother, but you still respect her as your mother. How much do you want the queen mother to harm you so that you will have no children or grandchildren before you are willing to do so?"
Since there was an opportunity, Jiang Chunxi would naturally curse to her heart's content.
The emperor's eyes turned cold, "Yes! I am nothing in the Queen Mother's heart. Concubine Shen is the one the Queen Mother cares about the most. How can a biological son like me compare to her precious niece?"
"Wow! How could you be so unlucky to have such a biological mother?" Jiang Chunxi started crying again. "I heard that the Queen Mother was ill. Could it be that because Concubine Shen died, the Queen Mother wanted to follow Concubine Shen!"
"Who knows?" The emperor sneered, "Maybe it's true. After all, in the Queen Mother's heart, Shenpin's niece is her lifeblood."
"The medicine is getting cold," the emperor scooped a spoonful of the medicine and handed it to Jiang Chunxi's mouth, "Now the harem is in chaos. If you don't get better soon, there will probably be a big mess in the harem."
"Chun Xi, please don't leave me alone. It's lonely up there. You're the only one by my side. What should I do if you don't stay with me?"
The emperor was not lying. After experiencing the blow of losing six children at once, he realized the importance of Jiang Chunxi. He could not bear the blow of possibly losing Chunxi.
Jiang Chunxi pretended to be soft-hearted and opened her mouth to drink the medicine: "I don't know how long my body can last. If this happened to me..."
"Okay, stop saying bad things," the emperor interrupted Jiang Chunxi, "I believe you can always stay with me."
"Alas!" Jiang Chunxi sighed and said nothing more, allowing the emperor to feed her the whole bowl of medicine one mouthful at a time.
Two days passed quickly. Jiang Chunxi pretended that she was not well yet and could not wait to deal with the palace affairs.
At the same time, the Yun family and the Chang family attacked the Shen family at the same time in the court. In addition, the emperor had been holding a grudge for a long time, so the Shen family naturally became the target of his anger. So, wasn't the Shen family in trouble?
Don’t say that the emperor is angry with the Shen family. After all, Shen Jingyao is the daughter of the Shen family, and they can only blame the Shen family for their bad luck.
In short, within a few days, all the officials of the Shen family in the court were killed, and many of them were directly stripped of their official hats. Even the title of Duke of Shen Jingyao's father was stripped by the emperor. The Shen family, which was once in its heyday in the court, suddenly fell into decline.
The Queen Mother was already seriously ill, and after learning about the Shen family's affairs, she was naturally extremely anxious. She insisted on seeing the Emperor despite her frail body.
The Emperor now hated the Empress Dowager to death and naturally did not want to see her. However, the Empress Dowager was clamoring to see the Emperor and he could not ignore her, so Jiang Chunxi came to the Empress Dowager's palace.
"Why is it you? Where is the emperor? I want to see the emperor. Let the emperor come to see me quickly." The Queen Mother said weakly to Jiang Chunxi:
"How can the Queen Mother still have the nerve to ask to see the Emperor?" Jiang Chunxi slowly sat down on the stool. "You caused the Emperor to lose six children at once, so I can't understand why the Queen Mother still has the nerve to ask to see the Emperor."
"Royal Concubine, please be careful with your words," Aunt Cui glared at Jiang Chunxi and said, "How can you speak to the Empress Dowager like this? Do you want to piss her off to death?"
"Madame Cui is so bold," Jiang Chunxi looked at Madame Cui sternly, "Does it have the turn of a servant like you to interrupt when the master is speaking?"
"Someone, come here! Drag this treacherous slave out and beat him to death with sticks."
"How dare you," the Queen Mother glared, "Royal Consort, who gave you the guts to touch my people?"
"Of course it was given by the Emperor," Jiang Chunxi looked at the Empress Dowager with contempt, "Without the Emperor's permission, how dare I show off in front of the Empress Dowager?"
"What's the matter? Doesn't what I said work? Why don't you drag Madam Cui out and beat her to death with sticks?"
The cup of poisoned wine that the original owner was forced to drink in his previous life was given by the Queen Mother and was made by Matron Cui, so Jiang Chunxi would naturally not let Matron Cui go no matter what.
As for the Queen Mother...
Haha! With the Queen Mother in such a terrible state, she didn't even need to do anything. She wouldn't live long. If she was quick, she would only have a few days left.
