After killing four concubines, the queen was sentenced to death and reborn
Chapter 231 Whatever you want, I will spend my whole life to help you get it
Jingyang stood in front of him and took a deep breath, as if trying to calm himself down. He stepped forward respectfully and bowed, "Your Highness, Duke Zheng has agreed to meet you tomorrow."
When the prince heard this, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes. He nodded slightly, and said in a firm and powerful voice: "Okay!"
However, a trace of worry appeared on Jingyang's face. He hesitated for a moment, and finally plucked up the courage and said, "Prince, have you really decided?"
The prince turned around, his eyes were sharp, as if he could see through people's hearts. He sighed softly and said, "I have made my decision."
Jing Yang was puzzled. He frowned and continued to ask, "I don't understand. Your Majesty really wants to put aside your ambitions as the princess said, and really just wants to help the queen get what she wants?"
The prince was silent for a moment, as if he was lost in deep memories. He spoke slowly, with a hint of emotion in his voice: "If it weren't for the queen this time, I don't know if I could come back alive. I will always remember her kindness. I do love her, but I should repay a drop of kindness with a spring, let alone a life-saving favor. She saved my life."
After hearing this, although Jing Yang was still puzzled, he knew that the prince's decision was the result of careful consideration. He could only bow his head and said respectfully: "I understand."
The prince nodded slightly and said, "After the morning court tomorrow, I will go to Shou'an Palace to pay my respects to my mother. You tell Duke Zheng, and then I will come to see you again with him."
Upon hearing this, Jing Yang immediately bowed and said, "I obey your command."
In the study, the candlelight flickered, and the prince's figure cast a long shadow on the wall. His eyes were deep and firm, as if he had made up his mind.
In front of the Shou'an Palace, the sun shone through the clouds, adding a bit of solemnity and mystery to this ancient palace. Xi Muyao, dressed in a luxurious palace dress, walked slowly towards Shou'an Palace. Her eyes inadvertently swept across the palace gate and saw Concubine Yi standing there, looking into the distance, as if she was thinking about something.
Xi Muyao's heart moved, and she nodded slightly and said, "Is that Concubine Yi?"
The maid beside her replied softly: "Your Highness is right, it is Concubine Yi."
Xi Muyao sighed softly and said with emotion: "This Concubine Yi is really unlucky. Princess Rong Le married far away in Southern Xinjiang, and Prince Xiang almost lost his life."
The maid nodded in agreement: "Yes, what a pitiful man."
Xi Muyao changed the subject and asked curiously, "I heard that Concubine Yi was very favored back then."
The maid thought for a moment and replied, "I heard from the maids in the palace that the late emperor doted on Concubine Yi, and that the candidate for crown prince that the late emperor had always had his eye on was Prince Xiang. If it weren't for Prince Xiang's illegitimate status, I'm afraid..." She shook her head slightly here and didn't say anything else.
Xi Muyao's eyes flashed with a gleam of light, and she said lightly: "No wonder your majesty and the queen mother are repeatedly afraid of Prince Xiang. This Concubine Yi is really capable."
As they talked, they walked to the outside of Shou'an Palace. Xi Muyao stopped and bowed respectfully: "Greetings to Concubine Yi."
Concubine Yi withdrew her distant gaze, turned around, and replied solemnly: "Concubine Chen, there is no need to be so polite."
Seeing that Concubine Yi looked unhappy, Xi Muyao was moved and asked, "What is Concubine Yi doing here? Is she waiting for someone?"
Concubine Yi smiled faintly and said, "Nothing, I just wanted to come out for some fresh air. Concubine Chen is here to see the Second Princess, right?"
Xi Muyao nodded: "Yes! Speaking of which, I should also thank Concubine Yi for taking care of the princess, and Princess Rong Le. It's a pity that Princess Rong Le married to Southern Xinjiang, and I didn't have the chance to thank her in person."
After hearing this, Concubine Yi's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness. She looked at Xi Muyao with a bit of disdain in her tone: "If Concubine Chen really wanted to, she should have come to thank Rong Le before she surrendered. Now that Rong Le has arrived in Southern Xinjiang, why are you still saying this?"
Xi Muyao was choked by Concubine Yi's words. She didn't expect Concubine Yi to refute her so directly. She smiled awkwardly and said nothing more. She just bowed silently and walked into Shou'an Palace.
After Xi Muyao left, the atmosphere seemed a little heavy. Seeing this, the nanny beside Concubine Yi whispered to comfort her: "Don't bother with her, Concubine. How can she be worthy of your anger?"
Concubine Yi sighed softly and shook her head, "Of course I won't argue with her. She has fallen into such a situation, and she is still so stupid?" She looked in the direction where Xi Muyao left, and a complex emotion flashed in her eyes.
When the nanny saw Concubine Yi's sad face, she knew that she was worried about Prince Xiang Xuanqi again. So, she whispered to comfort her: "Don't worry, Concubine, the prince is fine. Maybe he will come to the palace to see you in a few days."
Concubine Yi sighed softly and shook her head, saying, "Princes and dukes cannot enter the palace at will. How can it be easy for us mother and son to see each other?" There was a hint of helplessness and sadness in her voice.
"I am such a useless mother that I can't even protect my own children." Tears welled up in Concubine Yi's eyes. She looked up at the sky, as if looking for something.
Seeing this, the nanny hurriedly comforted her: "Don't say that, Concubine. You have done your best. The prince has never resented his birth. He has always been filial to you."
Concubine Yi looked at the sky, tears glistening in her eyes. She murmured to herself, "Look at the sky, it seems the same, but it has actually changed. If Xuanqi was born to the queen, he would have been crowned the crown prince. What a pity! He was born into the wrong family and became my son."
The nanny gently held Concubine Yi's hand and said softly, "How can you think like that? The prince has never resented his birth. He has always been your proud son. You gave him life and love. This is the best."
Upon hearing this, Concubine Yi felt a little relieved. She nodded gently, but tears were still flashing in her eyes.
The next morning, the morning glow appeared and the golden sunlight shone on the palace walls. After finishing the busy morning court, King Xiang hurriedly walked towards Shou'an Palace.
When passing through the Imperial Garden, the fragrance of flowers filled the air, and the spring scenery in the garden made people feel relaxed and happy. However, the King of Xiang was inadvertently attracted by a beautiful figure. It was a dignified and beautiful woman, dressed in gorgeous clothes, with a light gait. It was Zheng Xiyan who was going to Shoukang Palace to pay respects.
King Xiang was filled with excitement. He walked forward quickly, bowed his head slightly, and saluted respectfully, saying, "Your Highness, I pay my respects to you, the Queen."
Zheng Xiyan nodded slightly, her voice soft and dignified: "Your Majesty, there is no need to be so polite."
Prince Xiang raised his head, a trace of gratitude flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure and replied respectfully, "Thank you, Queen."
Zheng Xiyan smiled and asked, "Is Prince Xiang going to Shou'an Palace to pay his respects to Concubine Yi?"
King Xiang nodded in agreement, his tone full of longing and respect for his mother.
Zheng Xiyan smiled gently and was about to turn around and leave when Prince Xiang suddenly spoke up, his voice filled with gratitude and admiration: "Thank you, Queen. Take care, Queen."
Zheng Xiyan stopped and looked back at King Xiang. She saw deep gratitude and a little bit of subtle admiration in his eyes. However, she did not say much, but just nodded slightly, indicating that he did not need to be polite. Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, she chose to remain silent to maintain the dignity and dignity of the queen.
King Xiang looked at Zheng Xiyan's back as she walked away, feeling deeply moved. "Whatever you want, I will use my whole life to help you achieve it."
King Xiang withdrew his thoughts and continued to walk towards Shou'an Palace. On the way, he met Lu Ran again. Lu Ran's injuries had healed, his face was ruddy and he was full of energy. When he saw King Xiang, he immediately stepped forward and saluted: "I greet King Xiang, King Xiang, may you be well."
King Xiang smiled and waved his hand, indicating that he didn't need to be polite. Lu Ran stood up and said to the people behind him: "You go first."
Everyone retreated in response, leaving only Prince Xiang and Lu Ran.
