Everyone gasped when they heard what Dr. Wu said, and looked at the Queen Mother with fear in their eyes.
The Queen Mother is simply very vicious.
Risking his own life to plot against Princess Xiangning.
If Xiao Yan hadn't arrived in time, if Tang Ning had been locked up and imprisoned, Doctor Wu would have been silenced again.
After the Queen Mother died, it became a certainty that Tang Ning would kill the Queen Mother. No matter how many conflicts there were between the royal family and the Duke of Dingguo in the past, how many wrong things Emperor An had done, and how much he owed the He family, only Tang Ning's murder of the Queen Mother was enough to wipe out everything, and no one could save her.
But for Princess Xiangning, even if she is the daughter of the Rong family and holds Rongsheng Academy in her hands, she is still not worthy of having the Queen Mother risk her life in exchange for her guilt.
unless……
What happened today was not directed at Tang Ning at all.
A few sharp-minded people in the palace suddenly realized the reason behind the Queen Mother's move, and subconsciously looked at the stern-faced man beside Tang Ning.
Concubine Zhaogui looked at Emperor An.
Your Majesty, does he know that the Queen Mother is like this?
Even though no one answered, Zhaogui Concubine was certain that Emperor An must have known about this matter.
Otherwise, Liu Tongen would not have come, and Emperor An would not have happened to come to Shoukang Palace when the Queen Mother was vomiting blood and was in a coma. As soon as he arrived, he would have taken Tang Ning to "take the life" of the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother collapsed on the ground and could feel the sudden silence in the palace, as well as the various eyes on her.
She knew that after Dr. Wu confessed, all her plans could no longer be concealed, and she, the Queen Mother, had become a joke, but she had no time to care about what others thought of her at this time.
The pain in her internal organs made her twitch incessantly, and the suffocating feeling when her heart pulse tightened made her face turn pale.
If she had died "suddenly", the Queen Mother might not have regretted it, but now she could clearly feel the life flowing out of her body, and she was still alive, but it was as if she had stepped into the underworld with one foot, and was being scratched and scratched by hundreds of ghosts. Drag into hell.
The pain of watching her own death and feeling the loss of life frightened her.
She doesn't want to die...
She can't die! !
The Queen Mother's face was full of pain, and she opened her mouth wide and hissed.
"Aijia... is wrong, save...save Aijia..."
She was breathing hard, her throat making a wheezing sound like a broken bellows, and it was extremely difficult to speak every word.
"emperor……"
"Aran."
The Queen Mother wanted to survive and wanted to grab anyone who could save her. She desperately grabbed Nanny Ran's arm.
"Aran, save me..."
Aunt Ran listened to her extremely weak pleading, and after placing the person on the ground, she knelt down and said to Emperor An, regardless of the blood dripping from the injured area on her face.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, save the Queen Mother, I beg you to save the Queen Mother!"
Emperor An looked at Nanny Ran with a tangled expression. He wanted to save the Queen Mother.
But……
He glanced at the resentful Imperial Physician Wu and the imperial guards who had been taken down outside Shoukang Palace.
Today's events are obviously not going to go as expected. After Dr. Wu's confession, the Queen Mother's frame-up of Song Tangning cannot be covered up. Maybe even the Crown Prince's story will be reversed, and then someone will have to be blamed.
If he saves the Queen Mother, he will be implicated.
Aunt Ran kept kowtowing, but there was no response from Emperor An. When she looked up and saw Emperor An shut up and said nothing, she suddenly stiffened as if a basin of cold water had been poured down her head, and her whole body felt as if she was in an ice cellar.
Yes, how could he save the Queen Mother?
The Queen Mother behind her was breathing heavier and heavier, and the huge gasping sound made people feel as if they were about to suffocate.
Aunt Ran knelt on the ground and almost crawled in front of Tang Ning, kowtowing "bang" and "bang" with her face covered in blood:
"Princess Xiangning, please save the Queen Mother. None of this was the Queen Mother's idea. This slave is deep-minded and cunning. I am willing to sacrifice my life to compensate you. I beg you to find an imperial doctor to save the Queen Mother. , please..."
She was crying and kowtowing, her tears mixed with the blood on her face and flowed to the ground, and her forehead was bleeding.
Qian Qiyue, who was next to her who was still angry before, couldn't help turning her head away, and many people in the hall couldn't bear to look anymore.
"Aran..."
The Queen Mother's voice became weaker.
Seeing that Tang Ning was unmoved, Aunt Ran cried even harder. She stretched out her hand to grab the hem of Tang Ning's skirt, but Xiao Yan kicked her away.
"Don't be soft-hearted." Xiao Yan looked at Tang Ning.
Tang Ning felt him holding her hand tightly, thinking about the people who were eager to put her and Qian Qiyue to death when she was besieged before, and thinking about Xiao Yan's seemingly calm but panicked eyes when he came in.
She never thought that she would be someone who would retaliate with kindness, let alone that she almost died due to the Queen Mother's plan.
Although Emperor An did not dare to kill her directly, if she fell into Emperor An's hands and was charged with murdering the Queen Mother, Xiao Yan would have no choice but to retreat again and again if he wanted to save her, and Emperor An would manipulate her at will.
And Qian Qiyue.
Zhou Yuchang.
In order to plan today's events, the Empress Dowager involved so many people in order to eliminate Emperor An's personal troubles. She never thought about what would happen to these people if it happened. She wanted to destroy everyone just for her own selfishness.
Now that it was the Queen Mother's turn, how could An Ning be soft-hearted.
"I will not relent."
Tang Ning spoke one word at a time, and she let Xiao Yan support her, turning around to look at Nanny Ran who was crying and begging, with the same indifference on her face as Xiao Yan.
"Since the Queen Mother has worked so hard to get all this, how can I let her go through this in vain? Even Your Majesty is not willing to save the Queen Mother, so how can I dare to overstep her authority?"
Nanny Ran looked in great grief and was about to continue begging for mercy when she saw the Queen Mother over there suddenly vomited blood again. She knelt on the ground and crawled over, holding the Queen Mother's head and trying to stop the steady flow of blood in her mouth, but The blood flowed out more and more as if the trachea had been punctured.
Every time the Queen Mother took a breath, her whole body convulsed with pain, and her mouth opened wide in an attempt to snatch life away, but the pain became more and more painful.
The hall was filled with the sound of her heavy breathing, which seemed to tighten everyone's necks and make them feel the same.
The Queen Mother leaned in Nanny Ran's arms, leaned forward and pointed in the direction of Emperor An, as if she wanted to speak, but in the end nothing came out. The breath in her throat was suddenly cut off, and the Queen Mother's eyes widened in the next moment. His eyes fell to the ground, and the hand pointing at An Di also fell to the ground.
"The Queen Mother!!!"
Aunt Ran cried bitterly while holding the Queen Mother's warm body.
She knelt on the ground and wailed, her cry sounding like blood.
The palace attendants outside Shoukang Palace also knelt on the ground.
Xiao Yan reached out and covered Tang Ning's eyes: "Don't look."
Tangning felt the warmth in front of her eyes and listened to the hoarse crying in her ears. She stretched out her hand to pull down Xiao Yan's hand and said softly:
"I'm not afraid."
She is no longer the little girl who only cried when something happened, nor is she the Song Tangning who only panics and has never seen life or death.
