Chapter 99 The Prince’s Substitute 47

Chu Yuan paused in his movements, and said expressionlessly: "If you die, you will die. There is no need to tell me specifically."

"Yes." The person behind him left quietly.

The memorial in Chu Yuan's hand did not turn over for a long time.

He got up and walked out, and unknowingly came to Leng Palace.

Looking at the familiar place in front of him, he was silent for a long time before stepping into this hellish palace.

The cold palace was dilapidated, with ruins everywhere.

The woman was lying in the corner, with the hairpin inserted diagonally into her chest. There was sticky blood all over the floor, and her body was already stiff.

Chu Yuan seemed to see the thin boy being thrown on the dirty ground in front of him by a beautiful woman.

"Ning'er, mother and concubine don't want to abandon you, but they all think that you are a bastard and not your father's biological child."

"The mother-in-law has nothing to do. Who told you to stay in the mother-in-law's belly for thirteen months before you were born?"

"The mother-in-law is weak. If you didn't have your father's favor, your grandfather and the others would blame the mother-in-law. Please forgive the mother-in-law. Once the mother-in-law gains your father's favor, will she take you out of the cold palace?"

"Then the concubine must come to pick me up early."

The boy's childish voice was filled with hope.

In this way, the woman left a boy who was not yet four years old here.

The boy initially expected her to come back early and take him away.

But after waiting year after year, he was bullied by the prince and the people in the cold palace for countless years, and she never appeared again.

Even if she has already returned to favor.

She lived a prosperous life, rising from a beauty to a noble concubine.

She seemed to have completely forgotten that she had a child in the cold palace.

Yes, after all, she has her own child again.

But maybe she did too many evil things, and her children died one after another.

She was also unable to get pregnant again because of her health loss.

Even so, she didn't even think of coming over to see him.

It wasn't until he stayed here until he was ten years old. When the old emperor was passing by and was attacked by a mad woman, he rushed out and took a stab for him, and he was finally released from the cold palace by the old emperor.

At the age of ten, his appearance had grown somewhat, and he looked three-thirds like the old emperor when he was young. Only then did the old emperor dispel his doubts and gradually became better towards him.

And what about her?

Seeing that he was favored by the old emperor, he actually began to be attentive to him.

"Ning'er, my concubine was planning to pick you up, but I didn't expect you to come out on your own. It's great."

She hugged him, naively thinking that he was still as easy to deceive as when he was four years old.

But she didn't know that her Ning'er had died long ago, at the age of four, in the cold palace...

Only Chu Yuan survived.

At that time, he was still in his infancy, and he temporarily developed a deep love between mother and son with her.

But later, when he became the emperor, he actually gave her the illusion that she could enjoy the blessings of becoming the queen mother.

How ridiculous.

For those who betray him, he will make them suffer ten times a hundred times the torture he suffered.

He will let them see with their own eyes how what they want is destroyed in front of their eyes!

"Concubine, rest in peace."

Chu Yuan's expression never changed. He looked at the corpse in the corner quietly, his eyes were indifferent to the point of indifference, and there was a slight smile at the corner of his mouth, as if he was in a place with pleasant scenery, not this cold palace full of despair. .

The chamberlain looked at his back from a distance and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

He is from Chu Yuan and has been placed in front of the old emperor for many years.

He knew what kind of person Chu Yuan was.

He may seem heartless, but behind his cold-blooded appearance lies unbearable pain for ordinary people.

He seemed to be very satisfied with the death of the imperial concubine, but that lonely figure had long betrayed his emotions.

After all, he is just a poor man.
