"What's wrong with me? He's my husband. What right do you have to snatch him away from me? "
Yao Lu was very agitated. She waved her skinny arms like a devil who was about to devour someone.
"Even now, you're still so stubborn. You and His Majesty were a young couple. How could His Majesty be so heartless to you? Do you know that His Majesty didn't come to Gu Village for sightseeing or to gain the power of the Xin family? He came for you! "
Lady Jingrou's voice trembled a little, as if she had exhausted all her strength. Her tears flowed down uncontrollably.
His Majesty's expression didn't change at all when she mentioned the past.
Instead, he offered his sleeve to carry his beloved wife's tears.
"No … no way! His Majesty has never loved me. The only reason I was able to marry him was because of my father. If he cared a little about me, I wouldn't have ended up like this. "
In fact, Lin Mengya had long noticed that according to His Majesty's temper, it was unlikely that he would allow the Queen to mistreat his lover.
Unless, there was a reason that he had to do so.
Everyone in the palace thought that His Majesty was afraid of the Yao family's power. However, according to Lin Mengya's observation, His Majesty didn't seem to be so afraid of the Yao family.
Now she finally got the answer. Some things couldn't be summed up by simple grudges.
"Sister Yao Lu, actually, when you first married His Majesty, you were very affectionate to him. You were gentle and considerate, always thinking about him. Even though His Majesty didn't have the romantic feelings you expected, he still treated you like a husband and wife. You almost died in order to give birth to Jing 'er. His Majesty once told me that even though the Yao family had been eyeing the throne covetously, you just wanted to give birth to His Majesty's child, didn't you? Later, your health deteriorated. His Majesty was so worried that he went to my Gu Village to ask for a magical insect that could strengthen your body. Don't you remember these things? "
Lin Mengya had guessed the solution from the very beginning.
In fact, the most terrible thing in this world wasn't that the person you loved didn't love you back, but that you could have kept his heart, but missed it.
When Yao Lu married His Majesty, even other people wanted to use her to win over His Majesty.
But as long as she wholeheartedly treated the king well, the king who had been besieged and isolated from all sides would never abandon her.
However, Yao Lu didn't understand.
Lady Jingrou, on the other hand, was like a pool of spring water.
Gentle and silent, it warms the king's heart.
In the entire palace, Madam was probably the only one who had such skills.
Therefore, His Majesty was only devoted to her alone.
Sometimes, there was no room for scheming in love, but fate, because of each other's perseverance, could make it last forever.
The King and Madam were like this, and so were she and Long Tianhao.
"No … you're lying! It's all your fault! You seduced him! If you hadn't appeared, the king and I wouldn't have ended up like this. "
The truth of the past was revealed. Although it wasn't bloody, it was enough to make one's heart ache.
Lin Mengya knew that once these things were exposed, Yao Lu's psychological defense would be completely destroyed.
And once she collapsed, it would be the moment of her death.
"You always say that I seduced His Majesty. Why don't you think about it? Before His Majesty went to the Poisonous Insect Village, there were so many women in the palace. Why did His Majesty only favor you and let you manage the palace? But what did you do? You were blinded by jealousy and took advantage of His Majesty's trust to plant a poisonous insect on him. Do you know that the insect is the most cunning? Once it enters the human body, it will devour the human brain. In the end, the victim will become a walking dead. His Majesty has a splitting headache. Only my blood can barely suppress the insect. His Majesty knows that you were also bewitched by someone, so he didn't blame you. That's why he let me follow him day and night, in order to suppress the poison of the insect! "
Things were actually like this?
Even though Lin Mengya learned part of the truth from Wanyan Lie, she still didn't expect that the drama between a gifted scholar and a beautiful woman was mixed with so many grudges.
No wonder Madam had been enduring. No wonder His Majesty never easily showed his true feelings.
These people were more affectionate and loyal than she had imagined.
"That day, when you barged into the palace, I was suppressing the insect with my blood for His Majesty. You didn't distinguish right from wrong and wanted to kill me with a sword. After I escaped, I thought that you would take care of His Majesty. Unexpectedly, you cut His Majesty's face with your own hands. Do you know how deeply you hurt him? Do you know … do you know how much I regret it! "
Madam Jingrou was very agitated. Her beautiful eyes were already surging with monstrous anger.
Lin Mengya looked at Madam Jingrou, but in her heart, she couldn't help but click her tongue at this bizarre love story.
What Empress Jingrou had for His Majesty might not be love, but possessiveness.
Poor His Majesty at that time. He must have put in a lot of effort for this first wife, but he didn't expect that she would be harmed by Empress Jingrou. His heart must have been badly hurt.
Fortunately, Madam Jingrou was by his side. Otherwise, His Majesty would be really pitiful.
Lin Mengya felt that it was meaningless to pursue what had happened in the past.
After hearing the whole truth, Yao Lu was already like a fool. She stood there in a daze.
Tears hung on her pale and lifeless face. Lin Mengya also knew that Yao Lu's heart had been cut into pieces by a thousand knives.
"Rou 'er, don't cry. It's been so hard on you all these years. "
From the beginning to the end, His Majesty's eyes only stayed on Madam Jingrou.
Perhaps, at that time, he was completely hurt by Yao Lu.
But all these years, with Rou 'er by his side, she was always careful and proper, taking care of everything for him and fixing his heart.
Just like in the past, she suppressed the insect with her blood for him.
Since they got married, everything Rou 'er did was for him.
Perhaps, the relationship between them was not as earth-shattering as others thought.
But such a gentle and meticulous love was enough to entangle him for a lifetime.
"Ziyang, I'm sorry … I'm sorry …"
Madam Jingrou was already sobbing. She threw herself into His Majesty's arms and burst into tears.
In the palace, Madam Jingrou didn't know how many times she had suppressed her crying, which made people feel a little sad.
Yao Lu lowered her head, and no one knew what she was thinking.
"Helan, accompany Madam Jingrou back first. Don't let her cry anymore. Her health is not good, and she can't stand crying like this. "
After a long time, His Majesty said softly.
Lin Mengya immediately accepted the order. After bowing, she supported Madam Jingrou, who was already in a coma from crying, out of the East Palace.
She didn't need to participate in what happened next. She knew how it would go.
The Queen suffered a big blow, and with His Majesty personally handling the case, there wouldn't be any accidents.
She accompanied Madam Jingrou back to Fengyu Garden, whose eyes were swollen from crying. Lin Mengya immediately ordered someone to bring a cloth soaked in cold water and put it on Madam Jingrou's face.
"I've let you see a joke. You're already so old, but you're still such a good-for-nothing crying."
Madam Jingrou cried to her heart's content, and seemed to be in a better mood.
Some of the knots in her heart were untied, and she felt much more relaxed.
But in front of the younger generation, Madam Jingrou still felt a little embarrassed.
"Don't say that. If you don't even let people cry, won't you be suffocating? I admire Madam Jingrou's magnanimity. It's really His Majesty's fortune to have a good wife like you. "
In the bedroom, Ning Qiu didn't know what had happened.
But when she saw that Madam Jingrou's eyes were swollen from crying, but her smile was still there, she felt relieved.
She took a bottle of ointment that could disperse redness and swelling, and carefully rubbed it around Madam Jingrou's eyes.
"It's not a fortune, it's just that His Majesty doesn't despise me. Actually, who can explain what happened back then? I'm just glad that I didn't make the wrong choice back then, and insisted on staying by his side. Even if I had to give up my identity as the Gu Poison Witch, and give up my illustrious family, as long as he's by my side, it's enough. "
At this moment, Madam Jingrou was so beautiful that she didn't look like someone of her age. Instead, she looked like a shy and charming young girl.
Lin Mengya was stunned for a moment, and then nodded.
She didn't seem to be unfamiliar with these things.
"I heard from His Majesty that you used your blood to suppress the Gu Poison Witch. I wonder if Madam Jingrou would allow me to take your pulse? "
When she first came, she felt that Madam Jingrou was a little too sick and weak.
She thought that it was because of her natural temperament, but now it seemed that it was because she used her blood to suppress the Gu Poison Witch in His Majesty's body, which left her with a deficit.
Madam Jingrou's eyes changed, and she seemed to be a little unwilling.
But then she thought of something, and hesitantly stretched out her arm.
"Alright, then I'll have to trouble you."
Lin Mengya nodded and took Madam Jingrou's pulse.
According to the pulse, although Madam Jingrou was a little weak, it wouldn't affect her health.
But …
Lin Mengya suddenly grabbed a part of Madam Jingrou's white wrist. Madam Jingrou screamed, and her face became even paler.
"Ah …"
Ning Qiu immediately stepped forward and looked at He Lan in confusion.
Fortunately, He Lan immediately released her fingers, and frowned as she looked at Madam Jingrou in front of her.
"Ning Qiu, leave first. Guard the palace gate, and don't let anyone come near. "
Madam Jingrou was secretly shocked, and immediately sent Ning Qiu away.
Under Lin Mengya's questioning gaze, Madam Jingrou gently shook her head, signaling her not to make a sound.
She didn't expect that the secret she had painstakingly covered up for so many years would actually be seen through by this girl.
Only Lin Mengya and Madam Jingrou were left in the room.
Madam Jingrou looked solemn, and Madam Jingrou looked nervous.
"Madam, why didn't you tell me about this? Do you know that the Gu Poison Witch is not an ordinary Gu Poison Witch? Your pulse may seem normal now, but once it explodes, you will die without a doubt! I don't know what method you used to suppress the Gu Poison Witch. But I know that the Madam who has been practicing outside all year round is your substitute, right? "
Her eyes flickered, and finally, it changed from sharp to gentle.
Madam Jingrou rubbed her eyebrows, and the corners of her mouth curled up into a bitter smile.
