Chapter 325 - Necessity (2)
"Why are you running?" When Zuo Chenfeng saw Ah Mu sweeping past like the wind, he was extremely shocked, as if someone was after him.
"Uncle Zuo, let's go!" Let's go to snake garden and wait! "
"What?" ~ Isn't the safest place State Duke of Jin's Mansion?
"snake garden is safe!"
Inside the Great Qin Imperial Palace, there was a strange atmosphere.
In the Imperial Consort Yu's chambers, Imperial Consort Yu was sitting in front of a dressing table. In the water chestnut mirror was a beautiful face, with the support of a forty year old Imperial Consort Yu, she looked to be in her early thirties, light in stature.
It could be seen how attractive she was in her early twenties, in her prime. She radiated brilliance in all directions, and was extremely attractive. Chunyu Hong had pampered her for twenty years, allowing her to rise above the rest of the Imperial Palace, to the point that she didn't even put the Queen in his eyes!
Her hair was long and supple, and the maidservant behind her had used a wooden comb carved from the tree's golden silk to comb it. Her jet-black hair flowed back and forth in her yellow-brown wooden brush. This scene was serene and beautiful.
However, all of a sudden, the maid's hands trembled, and accidentally pulled on Imperial Consort Yu's scalp until it hurt. She turned to look, only to discover that the maid had a strand of hair in her hand. Seeing that she had discovered it, she still wanted to hide it.
Imperial Consort Yu said indifferently: "Hand it over!"
The maid's expression changed to one of extreme terror as she plopped to her knees. "Empress …"
"Hand it over!" Her voice was harsh.
The servant girl held the thing in her hands nervously. It was a strand of hair, but it was no longer black. Instead, it was white. Empress, spare me! " Servant girl kowtowed and begged for mercy.
Imperial Consort Yu took the white hair and studied it. She raised her head to look at herself in the mirror. No matter how well she was maintained, age still left a mark on her body.
She suddenly stood up, grabbed the powder from the dressing table and ruthlessly smashed it on the bronze mirror. The image in the bronze mirror instantly became distorted. She looked at the sinister expression on her face, as if she was burning with anger.
Just six hours ago, she found out the whereabouts of her son!
Then, she fell silent!
After a long time, she was speechless. After bathing and changing her clothes, she even put on makeup and went to Chunyu Hong's royal study to pay respects. A smile blossomed on her face, but there was still a trace of worry in her eyes.
She concealed her feelings well.
While accompanying Chunyu Hong to eat, she even asked Chunyu Hong for a favor, saying that Chunyu Hao had gone crazy somewhere and had disappeared for many days, and hoped that His Majesty would send someone to search for him.
Chunyu Hong's eyes froze. He looked over at her. "You have no news?"
"Previously, he mentioned Yanran's death, and he's going out for a while. chenqie thought that since his son has grown up, he should handle some matters by himself, but, these past three months, there has been no news at all. As a mother, chenqie is naturally a bit worried. No matter what Your Majesty says, Hao Er is our son after all, you … "
Chunyu Hong understood her meaning. She hoped that he would be able to mobilize the power of the dark guard, but a long time ago, he received news that Chunyu Hao had died, killed in that great fire three months ago.
Looking at the person nestled by her side, she had accompanied him for more than twenty years and had always served him to her heart's content.
However, he knew the cause and effect of this matter. Jin Yulie had killed Chunyu Hao, and in the end, he had brought this upon himself. Facing Jin Yulie, it was hard for him to say anything, but he had neglected the fact that he was mother Haoyu.
He originally wanted to tell her that Chunyu Hao was no longer here and that the fire had burned everything and left behind a lot of bones, but he couldn't tell which one was Chunyu Hao's.
This result was somewhat cruel to the Imperial Consort Yu.
Chunyu Hong could only temporarily agree to send more people to search for Chunyu Hao for her.
Imperial Consort Yu got up and knelt down to thank him.
After leaving the royal study, she returned to her own bedroom. Along the way, all the smiles had frozen into nothing, replaced by an incomparable solemnity.
There was a resentful look in his eyes.
Back in her bedroom, she sat in front of the bronze mirror.
It was only until she saw the white hair in the palace maid's hands that all her emotions were let loose at that instant. She was very strong in her life, but the heavens had only given her one son, the only son. Even if he wasn't intelligent and acted extremely rashly, this was still her only hope.
As long as she was here, she believed that as long as her Yu Clan bloodline was strong backing, she would still be able to live an extremely comfortable life after her son ascended to the throne.
But now, Chunyu Hao was gone, her hope was gone!
This was all done by Jin Yulie and Mu Wanjun!
Her fist slammed into the table, her nails digging into the flesh of the table. Blood trickled out, but she did not feel anything.
She was old, and it was impossible for her to have children again. As a result, she had lost everything …
"Esteemed Empress, your hand …" The maid was so frightened that her face paled when she saw blood trickling out of her palm.
Imperial Consort Yu did not care at all. The only thought in her mind was to repay the debt of blood with blood!
She wanted to make Jin Yulie and Mu Wanjun have to bear the pain that she had endured!
Everything she had suffered must be repaid a thousand times over!
Imperial Consort Yu took a long time to calm down. She asked the maid to clean up the room for her again and abandoned the place on her shoulder. She only brought her own trusted servant girl to accompany her out of the palace.
She was wearing a hooded cloak and it was currently the end of summer. The weather was slightly cold, but it was very comfortable. To Imperial Consort Yu, however, she felt a chill all over her body, as if she had fallen into winter!
"Empress, where are you going?" Su Jie pulled Imperial Consort Yu along and whispered.
Imperial Consort Yu looked up and surveyed her surroundings. Under the night sky, Imperial Palace was actually exceptionally quiet. However, she was no longer in the mood to admire such a beautiful scenery.
After a moment, she said coldly: "To the Queen's Middle Palace!"
