"Mother, don't say that. If the father doesn't come to see you, it's also your fault first.
If you are willing to relieve the love gu for Ji Lingxi and me, and make up for it, I think the father will forgive you.
Moreover, now that the envoy of country E hurt you, it is a loss for country E. If you are willing to seize this opportunity, country E will not embarrass you too much. "
These words reminded the queen.
She was injured by the envoy of country E, and country E has to take full responsibility.
At this time, if she had solved Ji Lingxi's Gu, Country E would not ask the king to punish her severely.
Maybe this queen's position can still be kept.
The queen was hesitating, and Richard walked in from outside.
"Queen, are you all right?"
The queen wrinkled her brows when she saw him.
Richard and her are married, and he needs to avoid suspicion in the palace on weekdays. He is definitely not as simple as coming to see her when he comes to her.
"What's up?"
"Queen, the princess asked me just now and asked me to show her the list of maids who had served her mother before. After that, she went out of the palace."
Richard is the housekeeper of the palace, and all the information about the maids who have served in the palace are in his hands.
The maid’s profile contains not only the name, but also various identification information.
The maids of the palace are all age-restricted, and the group of maids who have served Feng Suying have long since retired from the palace.
Obviously, Huangfu Liyue must have gone to them to find out what happened back then.
"What? Did she go to the maid who served Feng Suying back then?"
When the queen heard this, she got up excitedly.
Even if it affected the wound, he didn't care.
Huangfu Yuncheng hurriedly stepped forward to help, and questioned: "Mother, she went to find the maid before Feng Suying, what are you doing so nervously?"
The queen gave him a complicated look.
"You don't understand. Feng Suying was in the palace back then. I never gave her a good face. If those maids talk nonsense in front of Huangfu Liyue, then it will be passed to your father's ears..."
Huangfu Yuncheng felt that she was a little unreasonably worried.
"So what? Queen mother, you were the first to marry your father, that Feng Suying ruined the relationship between you and your father, you should not give her a good face, that should be!
Besides, she committed suicide back then, and the father saw it with his own eyes, no matter what happened to you, what are you afraid of? "
Only then did the queen's look calm down a lot.
A gloomy smile appeared on her face.
"Yes, Feng Suying committed suicide back then. What is it to me? I want to see what Huangfu Liyue can find out!"
…
Outside the palace.
In a secluded guest house, Huangfu Liyue found one of the maids who had served her mother.
This maid is no longer young, and runs this small homestay on her own.
Huangfu Liyue came here, and after reporting her identity, the maid guessed her intention.
The maid invited her to sit down and began to tell her about her mother back then.
"Queen Suying is the most unassuming and gentle woman I have ever seen in the palace.
She never treated us maids as servants, so at that time, the maids in the palace liked her. "
Listening to her description of her mother, Huangfu Liyue seemed to be able to feel her mother's tenderness and kindness, and the corner of her mouth unconsciously showed a quiet smile.
"However, there is a person in the bedroom who can't understand her, this person, I don't think I can tell, the princess can guess."
Huangfu Liyue bluntly said: "Are you talking about the queen?"
She nodded unscrupulously.
Now that she has been away from the palace for many years, she naturally no longer fears the queen, nor has she concealed anything from Huangfu Liyue.
"Yes, but it is understandable that no woman wants to share her husband with other women."
Huangfu Liyue continued to ask: "So, the queen treated my mother very badly at that time, right?"
The maid nodded her head.
"Yes, but the queen is very clever. She treats Queen Suying as his sister in front of the king. As soon as the king left, he immediately changed his face.
She often belittles Queen Suying in front of Queen Suying, and even calls Queen Suying as a servant when the king is away.
Once, I secretly saw her tantrum against Queen Suying. She pulled Queen Suying's long hair and ravaged her wantonly.
Even when she abused Queen Suying, she used extremely fine needles to penetrate her skin, which was very cruel.
In this way, Queen Suying would not leave any scars on her body, which caused Queen Suying to tell the king without any evidence.
When the queen did all this, she would send away all the maids. If it hadn't been for that time, I would secretly see it in the crack of the door, I would not believe it. "
Thinking back to this, the maid still had lingering fears, with a sense of fear on her face.
Listening to what the maid described, Huangfu Liyue clenched her hands on her thighs tightly.
Her eyes flushed, looking at the maid, she sternly reprimanded: "Since you see this, why don't you tell my father!"
Seeing her look hostile, the maid got up quickly, knelt down and pleaded guilty.
"Princess forgive me, I was just a humble maid at the time, I didn't dare to offend the queen at all!"
People who have been in the palace for a long time have developed the habit of "deaf and blind".
This is the law of survival in the palace.
Even if they see these, they can only pretend to be deaf and dumb.
Huangfu Liyue's breathing was getting heavier, listening to her mother's suffering, she was anxious to immediately thrash the queen's bones and ashes!
Looking at the maid kneeling in front of her, she endured her anger and continued to ask: "So, my mother's death is also related to the queen, right?"
The maid lay on the ground, not daring to look up.
"Princess, I don't dare to guess at will, but Queen Suying was indeed a little strange before committing suicide. She had always been gentle and became very irritable, as if she had changed a person.
Moreover, I have seen her secretly crying in the room several times. Before committing suicide, she had actually acted in self-decision many times.
However, fortunately, every time the maid found out in time, she rescued her until she learned that she was pregnant with the second prince, and her mental state was slightly better.
As for why she chose to commit suicide on the day the second prince was born, I am not sure. "
Huangfu Liyue could no longer listen to these stories calmly.
She got up angrily, grabbed the handmaid by the arm, and pulled her up from the ground.
"Let's go! I'll take you to see the father, you tell him this personally!"
She finally understood why her aunt was so angry and even resented her father and king.
It turned out that the father did not know the suffering of his mother at all.
His mother married him desperately, but lived a life that was not as good as a pig and a dog.
At this moment, her heart was also full of resentment.
She can't wait to make the queen pay for what she has done!
But the maid did not cooperate with her.
The maid broke free of her hand and backed away several steps.
"Princess, please forgive me, I am far away from the palace, I just want to live a good life.
I told you this today because I saw that Queen Suying was kind to me in the past.
Forgive me for not being able to follow you to the palace. I have old and young and I can't die now! "
