Chapter 586: 586

586 Assassinating the Emperor (1)

In any case, they would both be his women, so a secondary consort was fine.

Unexpectedly, those women looked respectful to him on the surface, but behind his back, they all mocked him for being an illiterate bumpkin. After bumping into him a few times, he temporarily gave up on this thought.

“If you look down on me, why should I give you wealth?” he thought.

This was what he had thought back then, so the matter of the secondary consort was left unsettled.

It was unknown when it started, but the people began to spread rumors about him and the princess consort being deeply in love. Everyone praised him.

The overwhelming praise made him proud on one hand, but at the same time, it forced him to completely give up on the idea of taking a concubine.

He could not compare to his noble brother in other aspects. At least he was stronger than him in this aspect, right?

He had been living with the princess consort for a few years, but there had been no movement in the princess consort’s stomach. He couldn’t possibly have no descendants, right?

In fact, the princess consort was the one who arranged the women for him in the beginning. After tasting the sweetness, he couldn’t stop himself. So what if those women looked down on him? Wouldn’t they have to wag their tails and beg for mercy under him?

However, no matter how many women he doted on, none of them could get pregnant.

It was not until the late emperor was seriously ill that he was worried and moved into the palace.

At that time, he was still in his prime. How could he tolerate being there for so long? When he was drunk, he thought that he had slept with a palace maid, but he actually violated Concubine Liu, who was delivering soup to the crown prince, who was busy supervising the country.

If it was just a palace maid, he would have secretly killed her. However, she was the crown prince’s concubine, the future emperor’s woman. He did not have the guts.

The other party begged him not to spread this matter and pretend that it had never happened. This was exactly what he wanted, so he naturally agreed.

He originally thought that he would keep this matter to himself forever. Unexpectedly, not long after, the news of Madam Liu’s pregnancy spread. At that time, the emperor, who had just ascended the throne, had an unstable position.

Madam Liu’s child, regardless of gender, came at the right time. This was how she got the position of Noble Consort.

When everyone was happy for the emperor, he didn’t think so anymore. It had been exactly three months since that time. He couldn’t care less. He tried his best to enter the palace to seek confirmation from Imperial Concubine Liu, but she denied it.

He couldn’t tell if he was glad or disappointed. In short, he didn’t look for Imperial Concubine Liu again.

In order to have a son who could continue the family line, he had been debauched for half his life. When he no longer had any hope, he received a letter from Imperial Concubine Liu, so these things happened.

In the end, he was told that he had long been drugged by the late emperor. That was not his son at all.

If not for this, he would at most have played with women in his residence. How could he have gotten involved in such a dangerous matter? The more the old prince thought about it, the angrier he became.

Shen Yijia rubbed her eyes and glanced at him disdainfully. “No wonder he wanted you to take the blame. Firstly, no matter if news of you and Imperial Concubine Liu spread, it would be a stain on her reputation. Imperial Concubine Liu definitely wants you dead.”

“Secondly, Lord Jing isn’t your son. Even if he is, he’s the product of your incest. He’ll try his best to kill you, even if it’s for himself. Coincidentally, he has a use for you. He’ll make use of your last bit of value before letting you die. Wouldn’t that be the best of both worlds?”

“In any case, no matter which one it is, the ones who want you to die the most are the mother and son. You’re actually stupid enough to have such a beautiful dream. You’ve lived most of your life in vain.” After analyzing the situation, Shen Yijia looked at Song Jingchen proudly. “Hubby, am I right?”

Song Jingchen smiled. “Yes, you’ve become smarter.”

She made the old prince feel embarrassed and angry. He was even told that he was wasting his life. Song Jingchen even agreed. The old prince was so angry that his eyes rolled back and he fainted.

Shen Yijia thought to herself, “I can finally sleep.”

The Fragrant Teahouse was on fire. Thick smoke soared into the sky, visible to most of the capital.

When Shen Yijia heard this news, she was still stunned.

After confirming that Mo Yuan was not joking with her, her heart sank bit by bit.

Could it be because she had alerted the enemy last night?

She thought about how there were so many women below, including Pinellia’s sister. She promised that she would save her.

Shen Yijia quickly got out of bed, put on her clothes, and walked out. “By the way, where’s my husband?”

“Young Master brought that old prince into the palace an hour ago. Miss slept late last night, so Young Master didn’t wake you up,” Mo Yuan said as she followed her.
