Amazing Pastoral World: Unparalleled Medical Queen

Shi Hanyu was stunned.

Her eyes gradually became blurred and empty.

"Ye Xiuyuan, why have you never looked back at me in all these years? Is Yu Ruyan so good? You will never forget her until you die!"

Shi Hanyu no longer called Emperor Zheng'an "Your Majesty" but just called him by his name, and Emperor Zheng'an did not take it as an offense.

That's right. Shi Hanyu thought angrily that he had never cared about her.

"Yan'er is naturally very good. We once said that we would grow old together. If not..."

The deep expression of nostalgia and longing on Emperor Zheng'an's face deeply hurt Shi Hanyu's heart.

"Ye Xiuyuan, who gave you your current high and mighty status? You ungrateful, ungrateful bastard!"

Ye Xiuyuan's face suddenly turned ashen: "Shi Hanyu, everything that happened today, is it what I wanted in the first place? If it weren't for you, Yan'er and I would have lived a life of envy for other people. It was you who intervened and dragged me into the struggle for imperial power. I told you a long time ago that I don't want to sit on that seat! I don't want to be a lonely man either! But you insisted on having your own way and didn't care about my wishes at all. In the end, everyone thought that I coveted that seat, and no one believed that I had no ambitions. If I don't fight for it, I will die! Shi Hanyu, you forced me to do this!" In his excitement, Ye Xiuyuan even called himself "I" and forgot to call himself "I".

"I don't believe you don't have ambitions! You hypocritical man! Now that you have taken all the benefits, you want to get rid of the donkey? It's a pity that all the people in my Zhenguo Mansion have become your stepping stones!"

"Shi Hanyu, you really can't tell right from wrong, and you're confusing black and white!" Ye Xiuyuan took a deep breath and calmed himself down. "I believe I haven't treated the Zhenguo Mansion unfairly. I gave them honor and a distinguished position, wealth and splendor, and even the military power of the capital! If they could abide by their duties and be loyal to me, they could have stayed in the Zhenguo position safely for several generations! But what about them? They have two minds, formed cliques for personal gain, coveted the imperial power and throne, and pretended to obey me but actually disobeyed me! Not only that, they also went against the grain, making the people of the world hate them! They even want to rebel now! Do you really think I'm made of dough?"

Shi Hanyu glared at him angrily, "You forced all this! Since ancient times, the throne has been passed down to the legitimate heir, not the illegitimate child. But you violated the rules of our ancestors and risked the world's disapproval to make Yu Hanyan's son Ye Wenhan the crown prince! Where do you put me? Where do you put the reputation of the Zhenguo Mansion? You still want me and my family to stand on your side? Dream on!"

"I am the emperor, I can make whomever I want the crown prince! The rules of our ancestors are rules, are the rules I set not rules? Since ancient times, the throne has been occupied by the wisest among the princes. It's not that I didn't give Wen Yan a chance. But you can see that Wen Yan has evil intentions, is narrow-minded, and will take revenge for any slight! How can such a person be the king of a country?"

"Haha! Ye Xiuyuan, you finally spoke your mind! Aren't you just afraid that after Yan'er becomes the emperor, your and Yu Ruyan's precious son Ye Wenhan will have no chance to survive? In your heart, the son born by Yu Ruyan is your son, and the one born by me is nothing, right?"

"Nonsense! You are not allowed to insult Yan'er!" Ye Xiuyuan pointed at her, his voice shaking with anger. "Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs, so how could I embarrass my own son? But Wen Yan has long been taught the wrong way by you! Do you remember what happened when Wen Yan was five years old? A little eunuch accidentally touched him and soiled his clothes a little bit, so he ordered people to beat the little eunuch to death. A child who is only five years old has such a cruel heart. How dare I hand over the throne to such a cruel person? If he becomes the emperor, will he treat his people well? Even if I don't do it for myself, I have to think about the world and the country!"

Shi Hanyu remembered.

That time, Ye Xiuyuan was very angry and wanted to scold Ye Wenyan, but she stopped him and even brought up the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion to pressure Ye Xiuyuan. At that time, Ye Xiuyuan was still immature and was restrained by the Duke of Zhenguo in the court. In the end, Ye Xiuyuan was unable to do anything to Ye Wenyan.

"Just for this?" Shi Hanyu sneered, "The life of a lowly servant is gone, so what's the point of caring? But you, you are making a fuss over nothing by blaming Yan'er for such a small matter. Don't forget, Wen Yan is a prince! He has noble blood! It is an honor for those ants to die in his hands!"

Ye Xiuyuan looked at her incredulously and shook his head repeatedly: "As the mother of a country, you can say such words that treat human life as worthless? It is true that the upper beam is crooked and the lower beam is crooked. You are cruel and have no compassion. How can Wen Yan grow compassion under your teaching? Shi Hanyu, you have always looked down on Yan'er, thinking that her status and position are not as good as yours, and that she is not as scheming and courageous as you. However, Yan'er is affectionate and righteous, and has a heart of tolerance and love. She will feel sad for a long time when she sees a small animal injured, and will lend a hand when she sees a beggar on the roadside. She respects her elders, is friendly to relatives and friends, has a simple mind, and is gentle and kind. She is a thousand times better than you. The children she teaches also have a heart of flesh and blood like her."

"Shut up! Shut up!" Shi Hanyu screamed frantically, "She is so good in your heart, but what's the use? Isn't she a short-lived ghost? Believe it or not, in this cannibalistic harem, if she doesn't have your protection, she can't survive a day! Haha! Ye Xiuyuan, what does it matter if you become the emperor? Isn't she your beloved woman? But you can't protect her! Won't she die anyway?"

"What do you mean?" Ye Xiuyuan's face turned pale, and his chest ached. Although the imperial physician diagnosed that Yu Ruyan died of illness, he still had doubts. Although Yan'er was weak, she had no hidden illness. Although her body was weaker than before after giving birth to Wen Han, it was impossible for her to die.

He always knew that there must be something hidden. But Wen Han was young at the time, and the Queen and the Duke of Zhenguo obstructed his investigation in every way. Wen Han even encountered danger several times. In desperation, he had to put the matter aside. As a result, he had a rift with the Yu family.

Now, after listening to Shi Hanyu's words, a certain conjecture in his mind was confirmed. He tightly grasped Shi Hanyu's shoulders and pressed her: "How did Yan'er die? You must know, tell me!"

"Haha! How did he die?" Shi Hanyu laughed happily, "Let me out and I'll tell you!"

"Let you go?" Ye Xiuyuan seemed to have heard a joke. "You and your brother colluded with each other and conspired to rebel. How dare you ask me to pardon you? Shi Hanyu, do you think I'm a fool?"

"You want to kill me?" Shi Hanyu sneered. "If you kill me, how will you explain to the world? As your legal wife, the queen is going to rebel against you. How badly you have failed as an emperor! You will become a laughing stock of the whole world! Haha!"
