Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Just by listening, Shen Miao could already feel the heart-wrenching pain. In her previous life, in Ming Qi’s harem, the consorts fought with each other for the favor of the emperor. The harem was a battlefield for women, and when women were ruthless, they were sometimes even more terrifying than men.
Many consorts’ children were sacrificed under such circumstances. No matter how vicious the consorts were, at the moment they lost their children, they were all crying in despair. Had this calm and gentle Empress Xiande also experienced that kind of despair? The scar would take a long time to heal, and only Shen Miao knew the pain of the scar.
The most intolerable thing was that she could not even take revenge for her child. Why?
!!
“Don’t blame His Majesty, and don’t think I’m very pitiful. Although I’m indeed very pitiful, I’m also an evil person.” Empress Xiande said, “After that miscarriage, I can’t give birth anymore and can’t have children of my own in this life. Therefore, His Majesty made all the women in the harem unable to give birth to his children.”
Shen Miao was stunned.
Because Empress Xiande could not give birth, Emperor Yong Le made all the women in the palace unable to give birth?
Emperor Yong Le should like Empress Xiande very much, but if he really liked her, why would he let her suffer so much? Why would he favor Consort Jing?
Shen Miao felt that the royal family of the Daliang Dynasty had as many secrets as Ming Qi’s.
“But you’re right. I naturally have to plan for the future. Lu Jing’s pregnancy came at the right time and saved her life for the time being, but the Lu family is not so lucky.” Empress Xiande smiled, and her smile suddenly became sharp..
“This child can’t be kept.” In the imperial study, Xie Jingxing’s eyes were cold as he spoke to the emperor.
“I know that I can’t let her live. If possible, I want to force a bowl of abortion medicine down her throat,” Emperor Yong Le said coldly, as if it was not his child who was going to die, but someone else.
“Why didn’t you make her drink just now?” Xie Jingxing asked sharply.
“Xiande won’t let me,” Emperor Yong Le said.
After a while, Xie Jingxing smiled mockingly. “She has always been soft-hearted. Perhaps it’s because the child in Lu Jing’s stomach reminds her of her dead child.”
“Xie Jingxing!” These words seemed to have touched Emperor Yong Le’s sore spot. He glared at him.
However, what he got in return was a casual smile from Xie Jingxing. He said, “So what should we do now? I don’t care about Lu Jing, and I don’t want to care about that child either. The Lu family must think that the child in Lu Jing’s stomach is a protective talisman.”
Whether Emperor Yong Le liked it or not, the future crown prince would be given to Lu Jing’s child. Therefore, when the Lu family came today and saw that Consort Jing was pregnant, they did not kick up a fuss and left very quickly. Perhaps in their eyes, Empress Xiande’s position as the empress was about to be gone.
However, was this really the case?
Life was unpredictable.
“The Lu family always forgets one thing. You and I have the blood of the Xie family flowing in us.” Emperor Yong Le said indifferently, “And the Xie family is heartless..”
