Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

Chapter 385: Plan to murder Longkodo

The emperor tossed and turned all night long, and finally went to see the empress dowager early the next morning.

"My son, please pay your respects to the Queen Mother."

The emperor then asked, "How is the Queen Mother's condition?"

When Zhuxi saw the emperor coming, he bowed and then sighed.

"The Queen Mother's condition has not improved. The imperial physician has come to see her, but she has been kept alive by taking ginseng soup every day."

How is the empress dowager's health? Zhuxi has been serving her every day, and I'm afraid she doesn't have much time left.

"I know my own health, so you don't have to worry about it."

The Queen Mother said weakly: "Why is the Emperor here at this time?"

The emperor has been very busy with government affairs recently, and now that there is a new person entering the palace, the emperor is afraid he will have even less time.

I just don’t know how I can find time to see myself now.

Perhaps it is because of my old age that the emperor is willing to come and see me.

But it doesn't matter. My body is already like this. Death will be a relief. This life can finally end.

The emperor did not immediately respond to the queen mother's words, but instead sent everyone out of the room.

"My Queen Mother, there is something on my mind that I am always worried about."

The emperor spoke only after the door was closed.

"Speak frankly, Emperor."

The Queen Mother is already in very weak health, so naturally she cannot bear to hear the Emperor beating around the bush here.

"It's Uncle Longkodo's business."

Knowing that he couldn't avoid this matter, the emperor simply said: "My son knows that the Empress Dowager may be reluctant to let go, but as long as Longkodo is alive, I will never be at ease. My son thinks that the Empress Dowager can understand, right?"

After hearing this, the Queen Mother understood. She couldn’t say anything for a moment, but her heart felt as if it was pierced by thousands of arrows.

Now Nian Gengyao has been dealt with by the emperor, but the empress dowager knows that the emperor mentioned Longkodo at this time because he wanted to learn from Nian Gengyao's fate and deal with it.

Moreover, you still have to solve it yourself.

Seeing that the empress dowager didn't say anything, the emperor understood, but he had already made the decision on the matter, so how could he give the empress dowager room to consider it?

"Emperor, Longkodo would not dare to have any other thoughts. Why do you insist on killing him?"

The Queen Mother was also a little anxious, but seeing the Emperor's condition, she was determined to kill Longkodo. However, she also hoped to give Longkodo a glimmer of hope.

"How does the Empress know that Longkodo has no ulterior motives? Could it be that Longkodo told the Empress privately?"

No matter what the empress dowager said, the emperor had already thought about how to refute it.

I am the emperor now, and I can only say that if the emperor wants his subjects to die, they have to die!

"Okay, I have already made the arrangements. I will summon him to the side hall to wait in the evening. Then, I will have to trouble the Empress Dowager."

After saying this, the emperor left without waiting for the empress dowager to say anything.

But how could the Queen Mother not understand? Today was probably the day Longkodo would die.

After all, it has been so many years, and I don’t know why the emperor can’t tolerate him.

As soon as the emperor left, the empress dowager coughed violently. It was not a serious cough, but a mouthful of blood came out.

Fortunately, Zhuxi arrived in time.

"Pass the imperial doctor, pass the imperial physician quickly!"

The emperor didn't walk far, so he could naturally hear it, but he didn't go back.

"how's it going?"

Zhu Xi looked at the Queen Mother lying unconscious on the bed and asked Doctor Jiang nervously.

"Alas, the Queen Mother, her health is not good to begin with, we must not make her angry again."

Doctor Jiang sighed and didn't dare to say anything more.

But when I took the Queen Mother's pulse just now, I knew that she didn't have much time left.

But I definitely can't tell this, otherwise my head will be in trouble.

Zhu Xi felt sorry for the Queen Mother, so naturally he wouldn't make her angry.

In the entire palace, who else dares to make the Queen Mother angry but the Emperor?

But this matter concerns Longkodo after all. Since it is for the emperor to consolidate the throne, the empress dowager would certainly not say anything, and she could not just plead for Longkodo.

Now that the emperor has said this, Longkodo is doomed to die. At least the empress dowager did it, which can leave him some dignity.

In the afternoon, the Queen Mother gradually woke up, but she was still talking nonsense in a daze.

"You said, you said that after the audition, you would take me away..."

The Queen Mother spoke in a daze, her eyes still not open, but Zhu Xi heard it.

Everyone in the room was quickly dispersed.

What would happen if other people heard this?

Zhuxi knew something about the past affairs between the Empress Dowager and Longkodo, but later the Empress Dowager was chosen to enter the palace, so there was nothing he could do.

After all, it's a pity for this pair of lovers.

"Queen Mother, Queen Mother, Queen Mother, wake up."

Zhuxi hurriedly called out from the side.

But it’s good that the Queen Mother woke up.

"Bamboo Breath."

When the Queen Mother opened her eyes, she saw Zhu Xi accompanying her: "What time is it now?"

"It's already afternoon, Your Majesty, look, it's almost dark."

Zhuxi thought it was just like usual, but in the blink of an eye, he saw the Queen Mother's eyes become moist and filled with tears.

Even if the Queen Mother was unwilling, she still had to go on this trip.

"Zhu Xi, go to the kitchen and prepare some dishes for me. Then follow me out for a while."

The Queen Mother said this while trying hard to hold back her tears.

Although there are many ways to kill Longkodo, he should be given a full meal before he dies.

"Yes."

Seeing that the empress dowager's face was not very good, Zhu Xi did not ask too many questions.

By the time Zhuxi was ready, it was almost evening.

"Is there any wine?"

Looking at the vegetables in the basket, the Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction.

"Queen, I have prepared it."

As he spoke, Zhuxi took out a pot of wine in his hand.

But this pot of wine did not satisfy the Queen Mother.

"This wine is not good."

As she spoke, the Queen Mother took it and changed it to a bottle. This bottle had a secret compartment, which was divided into poisonous and non-toxic.

"Queen Mother, you..."

Zhuxi didn't understand the Queen Mother's behavior, and couldn't help wondering who the Queen Mother was going to meet. It seemed that that person was in great danger tonight.

"Let's go." The Queen Mother packed up and went out with Zhu Xi.

Today, the Queen Mother was dressed very solemnly, wearing a black cloak when she went out, just to hide from others.

"Is Longkodo here?"

The emperor asked Su Peisheng in a leisurely tone.

"I'm here, waiting in the side hall."
