The Empress of Zhen Huan Reborn

Chapter 138: Rebellion Failed

The Queen still looked at the Emperor in shock, but Prince Guo smiled in relief, "The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. I am not as ruthless as you, nor do I have your foresight. I accept my defeat. But I only ask that the Emperor treat the Empress Dowager well for the sake of our past friendship."

Prince Guo had just fallen out with the Emperor, and now he brought up the Queen Mother. Prince Guo knew the Emperor's suspicions very well, and was afraid that the Queen Mother would be thoroughly investigated to see if she had anything to do with the matter. When the Emperor was busy, he would use his last trump card to move his biological mother to a place unknown to the Emperor without anyone noticing.

It’s a pity that the plan is so perfect, but the reality is so cruel...all of this is just a daydream for Prince Guo.

The emperor smiled and looked at Old Seventeen, "I know you have always been concerned about your biological mother, so I sent someone to bring your biological mother into the palace early on, so that you can better serve your biological mother and fulfill your filial duty."

When Prince Guo heard the emperor's words, he was horrified. He then saw the servants forcing Concubine Shu into the palace. A handkerchief was stuffed in her mouth. Her hair was in a mess, and a few strands of hair fell casually on both sides of her cheeks, making her look a little embarrassed. Her clothes had lost their former neatness and were wrinkled, as if they had not been carefully taken care of for several days. The originally simple colors became even more dull because of the dust and dirt, giving people a sense of decadence.

Prince Guo could no longer bear it and shouted, "Your Majesty, aren't you afraid of being criticized by the world for doing this? You stepped on the corpses of your brothers to ascend to the throne, and now even Concubine Shu who has been in Ganlu Temple is threatened. Are you still worthy of being a wise ruler?"

At this time, Nian Shilan said, "How dare you! If you and your mother had not conspired together to rebel, how could the emperor punish you and your son?"

At this moment, a woman dressed in a concubine's palace dress stumbled into the hall. The moment she saw Prince Guo, she rushed towards him hurriedly.

"Yunli, are you okay? Are you hurt?" The woman looked around at Yunli anxiously, worried that he was injured.

When Nian Shilan saw her, she was a little surprised. She didn't know why she was here. Then she guessed that it was probably Zhen Huan and the others who did it. Nian Shilan didn't sympathize with what would happen to Concubine Chun next. After all, if they were not removed, after Prince Guo died, they would probably be retaliated by Concubine Chun. Never underestimate the viciousness of a woman. Isn't Zhen Huan in the previous life the most typical example?

The emperor looked at Concubine Chun and asked in a low voice, "Is he the person you've been thinking about?"

Concubine Chun looked at the emperor with tears in her eyes, "I beg you, Your Majesty, please spare Prince Guo's life. He was just confused for a moment."

The emperor sneered at the situation, "A moment of confusion? If I were defeated by him today, he would spare my life!"

Nian Shilan then scolded in a cold voice: "Princess Chun, you must remember whose concubine you are. Now, in front of the emperor, you are hugging and kissing other men, and you have ignored the emperor!"

The emperor was too lazy to talk nonsense with Prince Guo and directly ordered his men to shoot arrows. Concubine Chun stood in front of Prince Guo without hesitation. With a "puff", the arrow pierced into the skin on Concubine Chun's chest and hit her heart. A burst of blood gushed out. Concubine Chun fell pale in the arms of Prince Guo, her arms drooping weakly.

Prince Guo was in a trance for a moment, as if he had seen Chun Yuan's death. He was filled with grief and anger. He turned around, snatched the sword from the guard behind him, and stabbed the emperor with all his strength.

The emperor did not expect that he would dare to resist. When he was about to kick him aside, Nian Shilan moved and stood in front of the emperor.

The emperor was shocked to see a trace of blood oozing from the corner of Nian Shilan's lips. At this time, the guards behind him also woke up and shot arrows at Prince Guo. In the end, Prince Guo was shot to death by arrows.

The emperor didn't even look at Prince Guo. He immediately hugged Nian Shilan and shouted to Su Peisheng, "Go and call the imperial physician!"

When Concubine Shu saw her and the late emperor's only son die tragically in front of her, she was so devastated that she fainted.

The waiting process is always particularly difficult, especially now that the emperor dares not move Nian Shilan at will, for fear that she will lose too much blood.

The emperor's face was filled with fear. He held Nian Shilan's soft and boneless little hand tightly with both hands. His voice was trembling so much that he was even a little incoherent: "Shilan! You must hold on... You must not fall asleep! I can't leave you!"

The emperor's eyes were filled with worry and fear, as if the whole world was collapsing at this moment. Looking at Nian Shilan, who was dying and as pale as paper, the emperor felt as if his heart was being tightly grasped and torn apart, and it was sore and painful.

At this moment, the emperor realized how much he relied on and cherished her. It turned out that Nian Shilan had already lived in his heart without him realizing it, deep into his bones. When Chunyuan passed away, he was not so flustered and heartbroken.

Su Peisheng and Wen Shichu jogged all the way to Jingren Palace. When they passed by Suiyuxuan, Zhen Huan saw the two hurried figures as soon as she went out. Zhen Huan thought to herself that something was not good, fearing that someone was injured. She hurried into the hall to get something and headed towards Jingren Palace.

After Wen Shichu entered the palace, he hurried to Nian Shilan's side to check her wound. Then he said with some embarrassment: "Fortunately, the Imperial Noble Consort did not injure a vital part, so it was just bleeding, not life-threatening. But I'm afraid she will be left with a scar in the future..."

The emperor didn't care about anything else at this moment, as long as Shilan's life was safe. "Quick, treat the imperial concubine. I don't care whether she has scars or not!"

At this time, Zhen Huan arrived. As soon as she entered the palace, she saw corpses all over the floor, as well as the two concubines, Concubine Chun and Prince Guo, who would be together in the future. Zhen Huan was not at all upset. She just took a few quick steps, looked at Nian Shilan in the emperor's arms, and asked with concern, "Is the Imperial Concubine injured?"

The emperor was a little surprised when he heard Zhen Huan's voice. He looked up at her and asked, "Why did you come out when you were not staying in the palace?"

Zhen Huan bowed and explained in a gentle voice, "I accidentally saw Eunuch Su and Doctor Wen rushing to Jingren Palace. I was a little worried about the emperor's health, so I came here without permission. I hope the emperor will forgive me."

The emperor was in no mood to care about whether to punish or not, so he said, "The Imperial Concubine was shot by an arrow in order to save me."

After hearing this, Zhen Huan asked Doctor Wen with great concern, "Is there any way to treat it? Will it leave scars?"

Wen Shichu nodded, without stopping his work, "It can be treated, but I am worried that it will leave scars."

Seeing this, Zhen Huan asked hurriedly, "I have some scar-removing gel here. Can you see if it can remove the scar later?"
