Chapter 292 Concubine Shu
"Obviously, the empress has invited her concubine sister into the palace. In just a few months, she has conferred the title of Concubine Shu. Now the crown prince has also been sent to the Changchun Palace of Concubine Shu... You say, Could it be that the empress will adopt the crown prince to concubine Shu?"

"I don't know... I can't!"

"After all, he is a prince, how can he be adopted by Concubine Shu?"

Sima really lowered his head, thinking of that gentle female voice: "Zhen'er, from now on, will you follow your aunt?"

Not wanting to hear the conversations of these young girls anymore, Sima Zhen took a few steps back and walked in front of his personal eunuch.

Several eunuchs bowed deeply.

Sima Zhen raised his finger and pointed in the direction where the girls were speaking, and said coldly, "I will give you thirty boards for each one."

"Yes! His Royal Highness." Several eunuchs bowed.

"Don't follow me." Sima Zhen strode towards Kunning Palace with his hands behind his back and his head held high.

Walking faster and faster, Sima Zhen finally reached the gate of Kunning Palace.

The door of Kunning Palace was closed tightly. Two guards at the door of the palace saluted Sima Zhen: "See His Highness the Crown Prince."

Sima Zhen breathed slowly, raised his hand and said: "There is no need to be too polite."

Looking at the red palace door, Sima Zhen hesitated for a moment, then spoke slowly: "Zhen'er wants to see his mother, please go in and report."

The two guards at the door looked at each other, and one opened the palace door and walked in.

Not long after, a guard and a maid in a light green palace dress came out.

A trace of disappointment flashed in Sima Zhen's eyes. He approached the palace maid and said, "Aunt Hu, is the queen mother still unwilling to see Zhen'er today?"

Aunt Hu bowed to Sima Zhen and said, "His Royal Highness." Then, Aunt Hu stood up and shook her head.

Sima Zhen sighed, and said softly: "Aunt Hu, Zhen'er doesn't know why the queen mother refuses to see Zhen'er. If it's because the queen mother is ill, we invite all the imperial doctors to come. If the imperial doctor is incompetent, we can also spread the word." Recruiting a genius doctor from all over the world, why does the queen mother bother to see me?"

Aunt Hu showed a kind smile on her face: "His Royal Highness is so sensible, the empress is very relieved."

"Then—is the Empress Dowager willing to see her real son today?" Sima Zhen took a step forward, with a hint of expectation in his eyes.

Aunt Hu still shook her head.

Sima really opened his mouth.

He wanted to say, Queen Mother, it doesn't matter even if you use me as a stand-in for several dead brothers, I don't mind.

He wanted to say that the queen mother, witch doctors and Taoists must be deceiving people.If you really believe it, then it would be good to only allow Erchen to look at you from a distance.

He wanted to say, Queen Mother, if Erchen knelt at the gate of the palace for several days and nights, would you meet Erchen?

Sima Zhen didn't say anything in the end.His father told him that he was a prince, how could he act like a child?

Sima Zhen raised his head and said, "Aunt Hu, please tell my mother that Zhen'er will be waiting for her."

Aunt Hu nodded: "The Empress said, please get along well with Your Highness, Concubine Shu."

Sima Zhen's expression darkened, he turned around and walked slowly towards Changchun Palace.

In Changchun Palace lived the new Concubine Shu.

Concubine Shu looks two or three points similar to Empress Empress.Whether it is the emperor or the empress, Sima Zhen called her "aunt".

Sima Zhen had not seen the Queen for a month. He once asked his aunt: "Why doesn't the Queen want to see me?"

The aunt just looked at him gently, with pity in her eyes, as if he was an abandoned puppy.

Sima really didn't like the look in his aunt's eyes, but his aunt looked like the queen mother, and the queen mother told him to trust his aunt and get along well with her, so Sima Zhen gradually began to trust and accept this aunt.

Yesterday, Sima Zhen couldn't help but ask his aunt: "Aunt, does the queen really never see me again? Does the queen really want to adopt me to you? Why? Just because of the rumors in the palace, does the queen really want to adopt me? abandon me?"

The aunt shook her head, her eyes were pitiful, she looked at Sima Zhen, and said, "No, no, don't misunderstand sister queen..."

But her eyes clearly told Sima Zhen.Yes!That's it!The queen has abandoned you!
Sima Zhen tried his best to keep calm, and asked to see him at the gate of Kunning Palace again today, but he still failed...

Sima's heart turned cold.

No matter what the reason is, it doesn't matter, the important thing is - the mother really doesn't want him anymore...

Inside the vermilion high wall, there was a tinge of cold in the spring breeze, which made Sima really chill, and he hurried back to Changchun Palace.

In the Changchun Palace, Concubine Shu had a gentle face. She was making tea. When she saw him coming back, she stood up hurriedly and said, "There is still a bit of coldness in the spring. My aunt has made tea for you. Come and take a sip. It will save you the cold wind." Get ill."

Once upon a time, his mother treated him so tenderly, but now...

Since the queen mother doesn't want him, he doesn't want the queen mother either!In this world, there are people who treat him sincerely.

Sima Zhen bowed to Concubine Shu and said with a smile, "Okay, Auntie treats Zhen'er the best..."

From that day on, Sima Zhen never went to Kunning Palace to seek an audience with the queen, but his friendship with Concubine Shu deepened day by day.

Until—two months later, Sima Zhen obeyed his aunt's orders, went out of the palace in person, and sent a letter from his family to his grandfather's family.

At the moment of returning to the palace, everyone in the whole palace was silent.

Sima Zhen was confused and frightened.

The queen is dead.

Before the queen died, she always wanted to see her only living son, but he was not there.

Sima Zhen rushed into Kunning Palace.

The once most familiar face was lying pale on the bed, motionless.

Sima Zhen tremblingly walked to the bed, plopped his knees on the ground, he grabbed her hand and said coldly, "Mother's queen! Mother's queen! Mother's queen! It's my son——"

Her body was already cold, but her eyes were always open, looking straight at the gate of the palace.

"Mother's empress-mother's empress-mother's empress, my son is back. My son is back. My son is not filial..."

Sima Zhen trembled all over, and pressed his cold hands to his face, his eyes were dry, unable to cry.

"Mother, mother, mother, you don't want to die! My son has been waiting for you, waiting for you to see me—— My son is wrong, my son is wrong..."

In the empty Kunning Palace, it seemed that he was the only one with that familiar body, and everything was cold.

Sima Zhen murmured: "Mother, I'm wrong. I'm wrong. Mother, can you wake up? When you wake up, I will obey you. From now on, even if you beat me, I will always Come to Kunning Palace..."

A familiar voice rang in my ears: "Really? Zhen'er?"

Sima Zhen raised his head and saw that his cold body had somehow warmed up, and that familiar face was looking up at him with a smile.

Sima was really not afraid of rejoicing: "Mother?"

The queen who was lying on the bed slowly sat up with one hand, she smiled and looked at Sima Zhen: "Zhen'er, tell the queen, where is the living body time travel technology?"
