Chapter 126: One for one, one for one
Chapter 126: One for one, one for one
Empress Fucha had not had a good night's sleep for a long time. Now that the overall situation had been decided, everything was settled, and Zhang Yun's medical skills were indeed good, so she was able to have a good night's sleep.
But even when she fell asleep, there were always too many things in her dreams that concerned her.
But tonight, it's especially different.
It was obvious that over the past month, she had accompanied the emperor in worshipping the ancestral temple, traveling around the mountains and rivers, and summoning officials and ladies, and her mind had become much more open.
But at this moment, a surge of resentment surged in her chest.
This resentment was like sticky pus that wrapped around her entire body. She couldn't breathe properly and her thoughts were blocked. She only remembered that she should be angry, but she didn't know what she should be angry about.
Until she heard Ruyi's voice and Meipin's voice.
She ridiculed Ruyi for her declining family status and lack of family members. Ruyi, in turn, ridiculed her for not being able to protect any of her children. She said that her mother's family had many members, but it was a pity that they were unwilling to help her with Jingjue's marriage and instead went against her.
Ruyi's words were much more vicious and cruel than what they had said when they were face to face that day.
Ruyi and Concubine Chun went together to persuade Jingjue to get married, forcing Jingjue to cry in despair. She came to her, and she had a lot of words to comfort her, but what she said was that she was forced by the situation and had no choice but to talk about the Fucha family.
Empress Fucha was shocked and angry until she heard Concubine Mei say that it was a tit for tat. She said that Yonglian and Yongcong were such good children, and they were in good health, so how could they suddenly die?
"...That's because the mother did something evil, and the retribution fell on the child! This is what goes around comes around!"
Tit for tat?
Tit for tat?
No one who becomes a mother and then loses children one after another can endure such accusations and curses!
Empress Fucha was in a trance and wanted to turn around and look for someone. She wanted to ask her, is this true? Was it because she did something wrong that the retribution fell on the child?
She wants to meet...
Meet Wanwan.
She wanted to ask her if it was really her who did something wrong that implicated the three children!
However, the moment she turned around, she fell into the icy water.
She kept falling down, the sticky and cold river water engulfed her and dragged her directly into hell.
"Langya!"
"Miss!"
"Empress Huang's mother!"
Three urgent voices kept calling her. She opened her eyes in a daze and saw that Jingjue and Yanwan had red eyes from crying. Even Hongli had red eyes.
Empress Fucha stared at the three people in a daze. In a trance, a man popped up from the side and said, "Your Majesty, you are in a nightmare. It's okay. Fortunately, you woke up so quickly. You have survived another great disaster."
She recognized the face; it was Zhang Yun.
Wanwan and Jinzhong spent a huge amount of money to buy this person from a black mine, just to treat her illness.
She finally felt grounded.
The life here now, with Yan Wan, Jing Jue, and the Emperor, is her real life, not the situation in the dream where she was full of resentment, but no one cared about her, no one understood her, and she ended up trapped in her own web.
Empress Fucha took a moment to calm down, and gently said to Jingjue and Yanwan, "Good children, you all heard what Imperial Doctor Zhang said. I am fine now, don't be afraid."
How could Yanwan and Jingjue not be afraid?
Just now, Empress Fucha was muttering "tit for tat", and there was a deathly look on her face.
Zhang Yun was so frightened that he was shaking.
Yanwan was really scared.
These last few days are the days when the Empress was away in my previous life!
Yan Wan had just experienced the devastating fall from grace after losing Yong Cong. What she feared most was that even though everything was fine, the Empress would suddenly leave.
Yan Wan looked at Empress Fucha and said, "Your Majesty, I was too reckless and asked each of the imperial physicians who examined you to give a diagnosis."
Empress Fucha gently held Hongli's hand and said, "Your Majesty, Wanwan is just frightened. Don't blame her for being reckless."
Hongli said in a deep voice: "You are my wife, and you have been repeatedly murdered. Lingpin is a cautious person. It is an emergency. I know she is just concerned about you, and I agree."
Empress Fucha felt relieved. The resentment that had gripped her heart in her dreams and seemed to be trying to take over her body again still made her feel scared when she thought about it now.
It was these three most important people in her life who gave her the strength and confidence to resist.
Empress Fucha gently held Hongli's hand and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to say to you."
Hongli thought of what she had just said in her nightmare, paused for a moment, and said to Yanwan and Jingjue, "You two go out and have something to eat first. I will take good care of the queen."
Although Yanwan and Jingjue were worried, they obeyed obediently and walked away looking back every few steps.
Zhang Yun, who was completely forgotten, had to speak up: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I have to check your pulse every quarter of an hour to ensure that you are always in good condition..."
Seeing the most noble couple in the world looking at him, Zhang Yun felt a huge pressure, but he still said, "Madam Lingpin has given me a death order. If I cannot diagnose my pulse once every quarter of an hour in the next two days, she will help me find my nine clansmen who have been separated since I was a child."
Empress Fucha: “…”
Hongli: “…”
Hongli rubbed his brows and said, "Go out and wait. Knock on the door when the time comes."
Zhang Yunru was pardoned, so he left quickly and closed the door carefully when he reached it.
In the room, Empress Fucha struggled to get up from the bed and knelt down: "Your Majesty, I am guilty. I have done several wrong things. I have to confess to you, so as not to be buried with these guilt. I am fine, but I always feel sorry for Your Majesty."
She was so thin that she seemed like she could be blown down by a gust of wind. Her calm eyes were filled with gentle apology and tears.
Hongli held her hand and said, "Langya, lie down. We don't need to do this between husband and wife."
Empress Fucha's tears fell on the back of his hand: "Your Majesty, you and I were young couples, supporting each other all the way. When the Empress of the Ulanara family was still alive, I was very scared every day. I was afraid that you would let Qingying step on my head like Concubine Hua did back then, making me a laughing stock in the world."
Hongli held her shoulders tightly: "Langya, lie down and talk."
Empress Fucha looked into his eyes guiltily, and seeing that there was no indifference and cruelty in his eyes as she had in her dream before her death, she finally softened and lay down under his force. However, she could not help but hold his big hand tightly.
"Back then, Qingying was loved by you, and Xiyue's father was your capable and beloved general. I was ignorant and timid, so I gave them each a bracelet..."
She laid out her mistakes one by one.
That pair of bracelets.
She punished Hailan for flying a kite when Yonglian was seriously ill.
She looked at Hongli and said, "I have failed Xiyue's trust and reliance on me, but to Ruyi, I never regret it. I can't forget that you took my jade ruyi away and gave it to her. She can't forget that you almost gave it to her. She is still dissatisfied with me."
She asked, "But Your Majesty, I did not poison her with arsenic in the cold palace to kill her. Can you believe me? Even if you don't believe me, can you take care of Jingjue and Yanwan after I die, considering that I have been working diligently for so many years?"
