After I traveled through the book, I made the plot of the vicious female supporting role overturn

Chapter 185

In an instant, the people knelt down in unison, and the moment Sikong Lie finished speaking, they congratulated the Third Prince on his return in unison!

The sound was so deafening that even those who had not come out to watch the excitement were attracted by the noise and came out to watch.

"I... am the third prince?" Zhenya looked at Sikong Lie in pretended confusion, portraying an expression of being at a loss to the fullest.

"There is absolutely no mistake! The dragon energy of the Son of Heaven in you has already proved your true identity!"

Luo Yingtian, kneeling on the ground, could only watch Baili Shun being untied by Sikong Lie himself, and then watch him and the real Third Prince standing side by side, looking very warm.

Maybe he was distracted for a moment when he stood up and saw it wrong.

The look in Baili Shun's eyes just now contained sarcasm, helplessness, and a bit of pity.

"So you are the real Third Prince. I am exempted from punishment thanks to your kindness. I, Baili Shun, am extremely grateful!"

After saying this, he bowed gracefully and pretended to kneel down.

Zhenya quickly helped the man up, "Master Baili, that's not true. I still want to thank you for saving my life! I don't have to kneel down now!"

"When I return to the palace to meet my father, I will definitely clear your name!"

Luo Yingtian, who witnessed everything, hung his head dejectedly. At this moment, he finally realized that he would never have another chance to kill Baili Shun.

It was a happy scene, some were happy and some were sad.

In the teahouse, looking at Baili Shun who was released, Murong siblings gathered around the window, leaning their heads out, and hugged each other excitedly.

He danced with excitement, without any of the calmness and composure of a great man.

Lin Ruo stood beside them and also stuck her head out of the window, but her eyes were not towards Baili Shun, who was praised highly by Zhen Ya and cleared of charges on the execution ground.

Instead, it fell on the crowd that was crowding towards the execution ground to watch the excitement.

Soon, she found her target.

Ji Yun was so excited to see his master being executed for no reason that he wanted to go with Bai Yi to welcome his master back to Tianshui Tower.

The next second, the paper crane on his waist that was connected to Lin Ruojin began to ring.

"Ji Yun, turn back."

Ji Yun paused and looked back immediately.

"Did you see those men in black preparing to leave? Take your men and stop them quietly. If you can, stop them. If you can't, just kill them!"

On the second floor, Lin Ruojin put down the paper crane, patted Lingshuang on the shoulder and said, "We should go."

"Where to go?"

"Go back to your house. I still have to do the final finishing touches."

Inside the palace, Emperor Ji Mingze finally finished reviewing the last memorial in the imperial study.

He looked even more haggard after not sleeping all night, and the eunuch who served him hurriedly took the spittoon away from under his table.

I walked outside and opened the lid, and saw that the filth was full of blood.

Eunuch Wang, who was guarding outside the door, heard the eunuch's report, forced a smile on his worried face, and entered the imperial study.

"Your Majesty, it's noon, it's time to order the imperial meal!" After saying that, Eunuch Wang paused and asked casually.

"The Empress has been feeling unwell lately, and it just so happens that it is time for the Imperial Physician to consult her on her pulse. Your Majesty, please ask the Imperial Physician to prescribe some dietary supplements!"

Ji Mingze was already worried about the trivialities of state affairs, and upon hearing these words, he immediately perked up.

"Queen, what's wrong?"

"I heard from the maids in Fengkang Palace..."

"The Queen has been unable to get out of bed these days!"

Ji Mingze: "......"

A strong smell of medicine lingers in Fengkang Palace all year round. Even the layers of bed curtains and the incense burning all day long cannot cover up the sickening stench emanating from the bed.

The palace maids seemed to be dedicated, but in fact they were so disdainful that they were too lazy to even clean the dust in the medicine bowl.

After pouring the medicine soup, shake it to mix the dust in it, and then another unlucky person will take turns to feed the soup to the queen.

At this moment, Ji Mingze hurried over with a large group of eunuchs.

He was in poor health. When he smelled the foul and bitter heat in the bedroom, he suddenly arched his back and started coughing violently.

Eunuch Wang immediately supported Ji Mingze and angrily scolded the palace maids, "What are you doing? Why don't you open the window and get some fresh air?"

The senior palace maid kneeling on the ground looked embarrassed.

"Your Majesty, Eunuch, the Queen Mother won't let us open it, saying that..."

"You are not doing your job well, you deserve to be beaten!" Eunuch Wang immediately raised his voice, "The queen is afraid of the cold, so add charcoal fire! The disease is gathering, how can the queen's body get better?"

"Go quickly!"

Helplessly, the palace maids had to open a few windows in the hall that allowed ventilation but did not reach the beds.

The cold winter wind flowed into the hall through the cracks and blew away the heat wave.

But soon, the woman who was sleeping on the bed was awakened by the cold.

"Cold! So cold..." The queen shrank into the quilt, her face pale. Now she would shiver uncontrollably even if she felt a slight breeze.

The bed curtain was opened, Ji Mingze stepped on the footstool beside the bed and sat down on the edge of the bed with his sleeves brushed.

Another gust of cold wind blew straight at the queen's haggard face. She was so cold that she struggled to open one eye.

"Queen, how are you?"

"emperor......"

The queen seemed to have just seen Ji Mingze's haggard face. Her eyes moved along his cheek and upwards, finally landing on his seemingly affectionate eyes.

Such affectionate eyes, filled with exploitation and calculation, malice and hypocrisy.

"Your Majesty, I am almost dying..."

This was the first time in so many years that she called herself "I" in front of her. She felt unprecedented relief, as if she had found herself.

In the fragmented dream just now, she returned to the last carefree night before entering the palace.

She missed it terribly and was ready to 'go back'.

"Queen, don't talk nonsense! You will be fine." Ji Mingze said, patting the quilt on her gently.

It feels thick. On such a warm winter day, with enough charcoal fire, two quilts were even used to cover the room.

It seems that the poison was severe enough in the past few days, and she is indeed terminally ill.

"Your Majesty, I have one final word to say. Please let them all go!"

"......it is good."

After Eunuch Wang led everyone out of the bedroom, the queen finally stopped caring about others and decided to lay everything out in the open and bid him a final farewell.

"Your Majesty, you have such a cruel heart." She slowly stood up, took off the gorgeous and thick phoenix robe from under the quilt. She was thin and swollen.

"Hasn't what I've done for you over the years been enough to reassure you?"

"So far, only you and I know about what happened. Are you doing this to silence me?"

After saying this, she suppressed the trembling in her body and rolled up her sleeves.

On the snow-white arms, two round red bumps were slowly wriggling under the skin.

"Now, I am about to follow your wishes and take the last secret away, but I don't understand one thing. Please let me go in peace."

Ji Mingze looked at the woman in front of him who was with him day and night, thinking that she would not be able to cause any trouble, he finally nodded.

Tears welled up in the queen's eyes, and she asked in a hoarse voice, "I... have been childless for many years, and my stomach is injured. I am completely...completely unable to have children... Is this also what you did?"

Ji Mingze: "Yeah."

Lies are hurtful, but the sharp knife of truth is the most deadly.

"Why? Why...don't you let me have a child?"

The maternal family behind her has always been loyal to the emperor, without any rebellious intentions. Be careful in words and deeds, without any mistakes?

She was also virtuous and generous. She managed the harem diligently, lived in peace with her sisters in the harem, and fulfilled her responsibilities as the mother of a country.

Why.

This person is so cruel to her!

Seeing the woman, who was about to die, still so persistently pursuing the answer, Ji Mingze sighed and gently placed his hands on the back of her hands with clear joints.

Just like an old couple who have known each other for many years, they patted each other without any barriers.

"Since you took the Third Prince out of the palace and killed him for me back then, don't you know why now? You and I must kill him, and the child..."

"If you really give birth to a child, how can I guarantee that your child will not hear something from you that he shouldn't hear?"

Speaking of this, Ji Mingze suddenly laughed.

"By then, I may have to kill another one, which is very troublesome. It is better to solve the root cause directly. In this way, after you and I die, this secret will be buried in the imperial mausoleum with us and will never be known to outsiders! You and I will be the most perfect emperor and queen in history books!"

"Besides, you have been under too much pressure for what happened back then. All the officials jointly submitted a petition to depose the queen because you lost the third prince..."

Ji Mingze ignored the Queen's increasingly grief-stricken expression and continued, "I will go against all odds and let you continue to sit on the Queen's throne, allowing your mother's family to enjoy unlimited glory and wealth."

"You shouldn't have any regrets anymore!"

The queen had never seen such a disgusting expression on his face. His confession was as calm as water, without causing any ripples, as if he was narrating an insignificant matter!

Tears suddenly burst out from the corners of the queen's eyes. She shook off Ji Mingze's hand and cried out that she was wrong.

After she finished crying, she collapsed on the soft mattress, her chest heaving violently with her emotions.

"Your Majesty, the only thing you care about is yourself and your status as a wise ruler!"

"That day, we all made a mistake... made a mistake..."

Becoming his queen was wrong, planning for him was wrong, and colluding with that man out of necessity was still wrong!

Ji Mingze started coughing, his mouth full of blood, but he still looked into the queen's desperate and lifeless eyes and corrected her word by word.

"No! You are wrong."

At this moment, Eunuch Wang entered the hall with a look of joy on his face and knelt on the ground excitedly.

"Your Majesty! Great joy, great joy!"

Ji Mingze stopped coughing.

"What happy event?"

"The Third Prince is not dead, the Third Prince is back!"

what?

He stood up suddenly and almost fell off the stepping stool at his feet.

"Your Majesty, look..."

The queen, who had heard everything, pulled the corners of her lips weakly, and a smile appeared on her face again.

"Finally, it's time to correct my mistakes..."
