PNB Chapter 786: The Princess Wants to Marry?
Chapter 786: The Princess Wants to Marry?
Ever since she accidentally killed the third prince, the queen has never again moved to inflict hatred on the next generation. All she wants is for Concubine Qing to suffer.
So after the second prince died, she went to find Concubine Qing and told her the cruel truth.
Her beloved son was killed by the man she loved deeply!
Isn't this the most satisfying revenge in the world?
"I visit her every year, watching her go crazy and endure endless pain. The peace I feel in my heart at that moment is something that no amount of sutras or chanting can compare to."
"Unfortunately, after just a few years of this, you appeared and cured her..."
The queen looked at Shu He, and a murderous look flashed across her eyes; but it was only for a moment, it was the anger that came from excitement.
"But never mind. Now that I think about it, it's actually a good thing that she's sober. When she was crazy, she could still escape everything, but now, she can only endure this!"
At this moment, Shu He saw a sinister smile on her face that was completely inconsistent with her temperament.
She knew that she was a little possessed.
"My Lady, you have been blinded by hatred. If you continue like this, you will regret it sooner or later."
Shu He's eyes flashed with anxiety. He took two steps forward and asked, "My Lady, have you ever thought about what would happen if you were wrong again this time?"
"If the person who killed the eldest prince wasn't Concubine Qing, then what's the point of everything you've done over the years?"
The Queen walked past Shu He with a cold face, a hint of stubbornness in her eyes, "If it wasn't her, she would have had a chance to defend herself!"
She gave her several chances, but she never denied it.
"Empress, you come from another world and have received an education that surpasses everyone in this era. You shouldn't be so arbitrary!"
"You, what did you say?" The queen looked at her in shock, as if a long-lost memory was awakening in her eyes.
Another time, another world...
How could she know?
"Could it be that you are also..."
Shu He shook his head. "I'm not from that world, but I've been there."
Shu He told the Queen all his experiences over the years.
The queen looked at her, as if she saw her long-lost hometown through her.
"Empress, since you came to this world, I believe you must have had your own adventures. You should have been a woman who blossomed with brilliance, but why have you become as short-sighted as the women of this world in this deep palace?"
"They have never seen the vast world, nor have they ever developed free thoughts. That's why they are trapped in this backyard, deceiving each other and scheming against each other. This is the shackles that this era has placed on women, and they can't break free. But you are different!"
"I know you want revenge, but even if you want revenge, shouldn't you find your enemy and get solid evidence?"
"If you only live in your own speculations and act based on your own likes and dislikes, then what is the difference between you and those selfish and narrow-minded women in the boudoir?"
Queen, you shouldn't be such a woman!
The queen stared at her in a daze. Not long ago, she had advised a woman in this way. Not long ago, she was just like the woman in front of her, independent and distinctive... But when did she become the one being advised?
Is it time that makes her forget her true self?
Or is it this deep palace that has locked her up for life?
"Your Majesty, please give me a few days to find out the truth about what happened to the eldest prince! If it was really done by Concubine Qing, then I will not interfere with your revenge!"
"However, if what happened back then wasn't done by Concubine Qing, then Your Majesty, please stop harming Concubine Qing and apologize for what you did to her!"
The queen looked at her with soft and nostalgic eyes.
She seemed to see her former self.
In the past, she was so determined to protect Concubine Qing. She also thought that in this deep palace, she could have a sister to take care of each other. Unfortunately, she forgot that in the palace, there is no such thing as friendship in the battle for the throne.
"Do you really believe that Concubine Qing didn't do those things?" She looked at her with a faint smile, a hint of interest in her eyes. "Have you ever thought about how you would deal with it if the truth was found out as I said?"
"Then don't worry about it, Your Majesty." Shu He said calmly, "Shu He only does the right thing."
No matter what the final truth is, the person who made the mistake should apologize and pay the price for his or her behavior, no matter if that person is the Queen or Concubine Qing.
After leaving the palace, Shu He went straight back to Prince Li's Mansion. At that time, Baili Moqing also returned from the Grand Tutor's Mansion.
In addition to Baili Moqing, Shu He also saw someone who surprised her.
"What? The Emperor wants you to marry?"
Shu He had just sat down and hadn't even had time to drink a sip of tea when she heard this unbelievable news.
Baili Rushu sat aside, crying so hard that she was out of breath and couldn't even speak complete sentences.
Baili Moqing next to him had a cold face. Even though he didn't say anything, it was obvious that he was in a bad mood.
"Yunlai is a small country. How dare they send our Princess Tianqi to marry into their country? Who gave them the courage?"
Ever since Nan Qi heard this, he has been emitting a chill just like Baili Moqing.
"And the Emperor, what was he thinking? Why didn't he just refuse? Instead, he agreed straight away?"
"We, Tianqi, are now the strongest among the five great nations. Why do we have to endure such humiliation?"
Baili Rushu stood up and threw herself into Nanqi's arms, "Nanqi, please take me away! I don't want to marry a foreign prince. I would rather die than marry a foreign prince!"
Nanqi stood there in a daze, and the coldness in his body unconsciously subsided.
"Why are you leaving? Where are you going? You're a princess, are you really going to elope with someone?!"
Baili Moqing rebuked harshly, his expression as cold as frost.
Nanqi's expression changed slightly and he pushed Baili Rushu away.
"Princess, Nanqi is of humble status and unworthy of your favor. But don't worry, the master will never let you marry!"
Even though Baili Moqing looked down on Nanqi's identity and felt that he was not worthy of the Eleventh Princess, there was one thing he was sure of.
That is, the master would never allow the Eleventh Princess to marry!
Marrying a foreign princess is the thing that the master cannot accept the most, let alone to such a small country like Yunlai!
Shu He glanced at Baili Moqing, then at Nanqi and Baili Rushu. She knew that they all misunderstood Baili Moqing.
But before she could open her mouth to explain for Baili Moqing, she heard him speak again in a cold voice, "Eleven, go back to the palace and prepare to get married!"
Baili Rushu looked at him in shock, her eyes filled with disbelief, "Seventh Brother, you, you want me to go and marry?"
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Baili Rushu's emotions became a little unbearable. "Seventh Brother, I trust you so much, and you treat me like this?"
