Chapter 784 - Three imperial edicts
The Empress Dowager quickly pushed Xiao Jiuyuan out of the hall.
After the two of them left, in the Great Hall behind them, the Emperor could no longer bear such a stimulation and fainted.
Outside the hall, the Empress Dowager heard the eunuch’s scream and couldn’t help but feel distressed. She looked up at Xiao Jiuyuan in front of her and said helplessly.
“Yuan ‘er, don’t make things difficult for your Royal brother in the future. You’ve finally gotten what you wanted. Don’t go against him in the future.”
“Mother, I’m only afraid that Imperial brother will bear a grudge against me. In the future, it won’t be me who’s always against him, but him who’s always against me. You also know that if he schemes against me, I won’t let it go.”
Xiao Jiuyuan said it casually, but the Empress Dowager was shocked and quickly said,”
“Alright, mother will talk to your Royal brother so that he won’t hate you. You should quickly leave the palace.”
After saying goodbye to the Empress Dowager, Xiao Jiuyuan left the palace, too lazy to pay attention to the Emperor who had fainted from anger.
In fact, he had wanted to use a gentle method to ask his Royal brother to bestow a marriage, but he did not expect that he would actually work with the Crown Prince of Nanzhao, Zhuge Jin, to poison Yu ‘er.
He could not be blamed for this.
Xiao Jiuyuan took his men all the way out of the palace. Originally, he wanted to go to the an Prince’s residence to talk to Yun Qianyu about the marriage, but thinking that Yu ‘er was asleep now, he finally resisted the urge to go to the an Prince’s residence.
In the emperor’s palace.
After the imperial physician’s treatment, the Emperor finally woke up.
In the palace, the Empress Dowager waved her hand to dismiss everyone as she sat in front of the emperor’s bed.
When the Emperor saw the Empress Dowager, he didn’t want to say a word. He closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.
“Is the Emperor still angry with me?” the Empress Dowager sighed heavily.
The Emperor remained silent.
“I’ve done so much for the Emperor,” the Empress Dowager said.”For the sake of Dongli’s vast territory.”
The Empress Dowager’s words made the Emperor angry. He quickly opened his eyes and glared at the Empress Dowager with anger.
“You pamper him so much that he doesn’t even listen to me. Everyone in Dongli knows that I can’t do anything to him.”
“This one is asking you, is there any meaning to this Emperor?”
“I’m afraid the people of Dongli will laugh at me in private. Do you still say that you are doing it for me, for the territory of Dongli?”
The Empress Dowager opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end, she gritted her teeth and held back. She slowly took a deep breath and said,”
“My son, this widow only wants to say one thing to you. In the future, don’t go against Yuan ‘er, okay? believe me, Yuan’ er doesn’t want your Kingdom or throne. Believe this widow once. Soon, soon, everything will be better.”
Unfortunately, the Emperor did not listen to the Empress Dowager’s words. He closed his eyes and said,””Imperial mother, go back to the palace. In the future, don’t come to Zhen’s place if there’s nothing.”
When she said this, it meant that the mother and son relationship had come to an end. The Empress Dowager’s body trembled and she felt a chill all over her body.
The Emperor actually said this.
“My son, how could you …”
Before the Empress Dowager could finish her words, the Emperor had already called out to the outside,””Someone, send the Empress Dowager back to her Palace.”
The eunuch hurriedly rushed in and said respectfully and carefully,””Empress Dowager, please.”
The Empress Dowager still wanted to speak, but the Emperor flipped over and fell asleep face first, no longer paying attention to the Empress Dowager.
The Empress Dowager could only stand up and leave, her heart filled with unspeakable sadness.
At dawn the next day, the palace issued three edicts.
The first decree was that the Emperor had betrothed su Feiyan from the Duke SU’s estate to Prince Huai, Xiao tianyao, as a concubine.
The second decree was that Yan Qingfeng of the Yanbei royal family was given to Xiao Tianyi, the Xuan Prince, as a concubine.
The third decree was that Princess Lingyi of the an Prince’s residence was to be married to li Prince Xiao Jiuyuan.
