Chu Yunfei was not surprised that she would deny it.
After all, such harmful things as witchcraft are prohibited by the royal family. Once she admits it, it means that both she and King Chen will be severely punished.
No matter how domineering Concubine Gu was, she was still not stupid enough to risk her son's life.
"It's okay if the imperial concubine doesn't admit it. Anyway, the queen mother and I are not here today to force you to admit these things." Chu Yunfei helped the queen sit down aside, "We are just here to tell you today, there are some things you don't even want to admit. Know the truth.”
Concubine Gu stood up holding the edge of the bed, closed her eyes gently, and waited until the dizziness subsided, then smiled coldly: "Wouldn't it be better if you just said you were here to add insult to injury?"
Chu Yunfei ignored her sarcasm and said directly: "Your favorite son, King Chen, has been imprisoned in the palace. He is not free like you. No matter how many evil thoughts he has, he cannot carry them out."
Concubine Gu was shocked. King Chen was imprisoned?
Chu Yunfei continued: "Prime Minister Jiang has been suspended from his duties at home. Even if he is the only one in the court, he cannot save King Chen from the fire at the moment."
"Nonsense! You are talking nonsense!" Concubine Gu glared at her, her voice cold and biting, "Chu Yunfei, you don't have to lie to me here. Do you think I am a three-year-old child who can be fooled by you so easily?"
"It's true." The queen said calmly, "Everything Yun Fei said is true. It is true that King Chen was imprisoned, but the emperor did not use the reason for the confinement, but to let him recover well, just like the concubine's angina pectoris. It’s like you need to rest well after an attack.”
Concubine Gu looked grim: "Impossible!"
"I came here today because I have something to inform you." The Queen sat on the chair and looked coldly at Concubine Gu losing control, "Rong Cang is your son, but you are not nice to him, so I I plan to adopt him as his legitimate son, and the emperor will most likely make him his heir in the future."
"What did you say?" Concubine Gu's face froze, and she turned livid with anger, "I'm not dead yet, why do you adopt my son? Don't even think about it! Don't even think about it!"
"The noble concubine also knows that Rong Cang is your son?" The queen sneered, "Since he is your son, why are you so partial to them? It is obvious that both King Chen and King Zhan are your sons, why can't you make a bowl of water? Duanping? If you treated Rong Cang the same as you treated King Chen, how could you have so many troubles now? King Chen is dead, and there is still a war king who can provide you with a rich and luxurious life, but it’s a pity that you don’t know how to cherish-"
"Cherish this shit! Who is he?" Gu Guifei interrupted her coldly, the disgust in her tone could not be concealed at all, "Why should I hold a bowl of water flat? What qualifications does he have to be compared with King Chen? "
The queen's face darkened: "He is your and the emperor's son, the prince of the Chu royal family. Since you gave birth to him, why do you hate him so much? What on earth has he done to regret you?"
"He is not my son at all, he is just a scoundrel!" After Gu Guifei yelled angrily, her heart suddenly became cold, a look of panic appeared on her face, and she explained incoherently, "I...I didn't mean that, I meant It's him...he came at the wrong time. One month after he was born, the emperor has never set foot in Zhaochen Palace. It can be seen that the emperor doesn't like him either. Yes, the emperor doesn't like him either..."
The Queen sat on the chair, her face calm as usual, but her heart was already in turmoil.
Rong Cang was not Gu Guifei's son, she admitted.
What people blurt out in a hurry is the truth.
The queen raised her hands to cover her eyes. The hatred in her heart deepened, but she didn't show it at all at this time. She just said calmly: "The emperor didn't come to Zhaochen Palace in the first place just because I lost my child and lost control of my emotions. In grief, Not eating or drinking, the emperor was worried that I would commit suicide, so he stayed in Shuhuang Palace to appease me. Rong Cang is his biological son, how could the emperor not like it?"
Biological son?
Concubine Gu had a sarcastic smile on her face, but said nothing. She was even worried that she would talk nonsense impulsively, so she simply closed her eyes and pretended that the queen did not exist.
"It is not only my intention to adopt Rong Cang, but also the emperor's intention." The queen looked at her with pity, "You should know that your status is second only to me. Without the emperor's consent, , I cannot adopt the son of a noble concubine."
Concubine Gu looked gloomy: "The emperor is confused, is the queen confused as well? Rong Cang is not qualified to be a legitimate son at all. If the queen insists on going her own way, she will definitely regret it in the future. Don't blame me for not reminding you."
"I will never regret it." The queen looked at Concubine Gu expressionlessly with cold eyes, "You know what you have done to Rong Cang before, and the emperor also knows it. You are a selfish and vicious woman, and you are not worthy at all. Be a mother.”
Concubine Gu became emotional: "All my plans are for my son. Who dares to say that I am not a good mother?"
"Whose good mother are you? King Chen?" The queen looked at her coldly, "You mother and son have done so many bad things and have no conscience. Do you think you can die in peace? If King Chen is punished, you will be the culprit!"
"Nonsense!" Gu Guifei's face turned livid, "Nonsense! Nonsense!"
"Prince Chen will never have another chance to turn around in this life." The queen stood up and watched her hysterics indifferently. Her extreme calmness was in sharp contrast to her rage, "But you should be glad that you are Rong Cang's mother. The emperor sees For his sake, you are not relegated to the cold palace. You can pray that Rong Cang will one day sit on the throne of God. In this way, for the sake of mother and son, you may be allowed to be the queen mother in name only—— "
"I don't care." Gu Guifei said coldly, "Rong Cang can't sit in that position, he will definitely not be able to sit in that position! Even if King Chen can't do it, King Yu can't do it, all the princes will not satisfy the emperor, and the throne will never be the same. If you don’t see Rong Cang, if you don’t believe me, just wait and see, you will definitely regret it!”
"Why do I regret it?" The Queen sneered, "Rong Cang is so outstanding and the Emperor is very satisfied with him. He is also a prince who values love and justice. How can I regret it?"
Concubine Gu stopped talking.
The queen turned and left. At the critical moment, Concubine Gu stood up like crazy and rushed towards Chu Yunfei: "You little bitch! It's all your bad deeds that ruined my good deeds. If it weren't for you, all my plans would have succeeded - ah! "
Before Shengxia could take action, Mo Xue knocked her away with a palm.
Concubine Gu fell heavily to the ground, screamed, and almost fainted.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" Nanny Ji quickly stood up and walked to Concubine Gu. She knelt on the ground and exclaimed, "Your Majesty!"
The queen turned to look at Mo Xue.
Mo Xue lowered her head and said, "She just wanted to hurt the princess, so I had no choice but to take action."
The queen asked: "Will you die?"
"Won't."
"Then there is no need to ask for an imperial doctor." The queen held Chu Yunfei's hand, turned and walked out, "The more she prevents me from adopting Rong Cang, the more I will let Rong Cang be my legitimate son."
