"Did you see that woman?"
The Empress Dowager's tone was extremely cold. This was the first time that Wei Ziyao had seen the Empress Dowager like this.
"Yes, I saw her." Wei Ziyao nodded and admitted.
"She is still alive. I said that the Emperor can't bear to let her die. He can't let her die. Heh … After all, he hid it from me for more than 20 years."
Wei Ziyao didn't know about the history of the harem. She didn't want to get involved in other people's love and hatred. So when the Empress Dowager was sighing, Wei Ziyao didn't interrupt.
But the Empress Dowager looked at her and said something that made her hair stand on end.
"If you really love Che 'er, then don't hesitate to kill her!"
"Ah?" Wei Ziyao couldn't react for a while.
Kill her?
"That woman will only bring endless pain to Che 'er. She is not a good person. While she is still a nameless woman in the harem, quickly get rid of her and prevent future trouble …"
"Mother!"
Before Wei Ziyao could answer, or to be more precise, before she could figure out what was going on, the Northern Wen Emperor came.
He glanced at Wei Ziyao: "There is nothing for you to do here. Leave first. Don't take the Empress Dowager's words to heart."
Wei Ziyao nodded and left. Before she went far, she heard the Empress Dowager's sad tone.
"What? Now the Emperor doesn't even listen to me? You know what that woman's existence means. You know that I can't tolerate her. Now the Emperor means that you want that woman and don't want me? "
"Mother, your son didn't mean that." The Emperor's tone was very helpless: "Now she has been trapped in the harem for more than 20 years. She is no longer who she used to be. She has changed, so I want to … give her a status."
"Changed?" The Empress Dowager seemed to have heard a joke: "If she really changed, she wouldn't have made such a big move to let the whole harem know her existence. Son! You have been smart all your life. Why do you keep making mistakes about this woman? "
"Mother, is it wrong to love a person?"
Hearing the Emperor's question, the Empress Dowager closed her eyes as if she had accepted her fate.
"Sigh … At that time, I already said that this woman is a disaster. Sooner or later, she will destroy your country and you! Now that you've said this, Aijia will not care anymore. How many days can Aijia live? The world is yours. If you don't want it, then don't! "
This was the second time that Northern Wen Emperor had seen his mother lose her temper. Both times, it was because of the same woman.
Northern Wen Emperor looked at the Empress Dowager, knelt in front of her, and kowtowed deeply.
When he came out, he saw Wei Ziyao sitting at the stone table in the courtyard with her hands on her cheeks.
He lowered his status and walked over to sit beside Wei Ziyao.
"You heard everything?"
"Yes, I heard you." Wei Ziyao nodded listlessly.
These two people were not like a father-in-law and daughter-in-law at all. Instead, they were like the only confidants who could talk to each other.
"Do you also think that I'm wrong?"
"There's no right or wrong in love." Wei Ziyao still said the same thing.
"It's right for you to love the country and let the beauty down. That's a wise ruler. It's also right for you to love the beauty and not the country. After all, you're also a human. However, as the Emperor, you're destined to be different from ordinary people. You have the world on your shoulders. If you love the beauty and not the country, you'll inevitably be labeled as a fatuous ruler. If you really cause the world to fall into chaos and plunge the people into misery and suffering, then it'll be a sin."
She pushed her cheeks and spoke of plunging the people into misery and suffering as if she was telling a story.
However, Northern Wen Emperor was not so relaxed.
"You told me that there's no right or wrong, but you've already explained it in detail. What about you? Sixth Brother loves you so much now. If one day he becomes a fatuous ruler because of you, you …"
Before the Emperor finished speaking, Wei Ziyao held her cheeks with her hands and smiled sweetly at him.
"What nonsense are you talking about, Your Majesty? I love Ki Chien-chul so much. How can I bear to see him become a fatuous ruler? "
