Quick Wear: The Female Supporting Character's Counterattack

Chapter 54: The Sign of Running Out of Oil

Min Ning had a deathly look on his face as he lay in his coma, and the atmosphere in the entire room seemed particularly dead silent.

Min Yucheng calmly drank his tea and spoke in a cold voice, "When the Queen Mother learned that His Majesty was ill, she fainted in the Buddhist temple. The Emperor's uncle who was far away at the border was killed in an ambush. Things have been really uneasy recently."

Looking at her proud son, Concubine Quan's hands trembled slightly.

He never thought that his son could be so decisive in poisoning An Yixue.

This is fratricide.

But she couldn't blame Min Yucheng because he did it all for her.

Just then the imperial doctors came out, and they knelt in front of Concubine Quan and Min Yucheng.

Concubine Quan came back to her senses and asked, "How is your majesty?"

The leading imperial physician kowtowed and replied, "Your Majesty has been seriously depleted of energy. Since the passing of the Imperial Noble Consort, your health has been getting worse day by day. Now your Majesty is showing signs of running out of energy."

Some things were not explained, for example, if Min Ning had abstained from sex and taken good care of his health, he might have lived another ten years.

But ever since Concubine Yi came into the palace, Min Ning had been partying every night.

His five internal organs already showed signs of weakness, and coupled with the fact that he was constantly taking advantage of Concubine Yi, it was natural that his life span would not be long.

The imperial physician was shocked when he took Min Ning's pulse just now. According to Min Ning's current physical condition, he might have had sexual intercourse day and night.

After listening to the doctor's story, Concubine Quan asked again, "Just tell me, how long do you have left?"

"It may be half a year at most, or more than a month at least. Your Majesty can no longer get up."

It has reached the point where he is unable to get up. It seems that Min Ning will not live for many days.

Concubine Quan nodded and waved her hand, "Forget it, go down, and leave the two imperial doctors to take turns to take care of him."

"Yes."

After the imperial physicians left, Concubine Quan finally couldn't help it. She looked at Min Yucheng with a slightly sad look in her eyes.

"You have been refusing to enter the palace these days, so you are hiding from me, right?"

Ever since An Yixue was killed by Min Yucheng, Concubine Quan was successfully released from house arrest. Even if the palace power did not fall into her hands again, at least the crisis was resolved.

However, Min Yucheng, who had always been filial, never went to the palace to pay his respects since then.

Min Yucheng looked at Concubine Quan, "Mother, do you think your son is cruel?"

"No matter how bad An Yixue is, she is still your brother. How dare you harm your brother..."

"Mother concubine!"

Min Yucheng's eyes were slightly cold and his voice was indifferent. "My son is a descendant of the royal family and his last name is Min. How could he be a brother of An Yixue?"

"The only brothers who can be my son's brothers are my third and fourth brothers. My son's father is lying in there."

Faced with Min Yucheng's warning tone, Concubine Quan was slightly stunned and looked straight at his face that was similar to her own.

I have been a well-behaved child since childhood, and I never thought that one day I would be spoken to like this.

Concubine Quan opened her mouth slightly and moved her lips, wanting to blame the other party, but the words came out of her mouth.

At this time, Min Yucheng softened his tone, "Mother, I am also your son, the son you have raised for nearly twenty years. An Yixue never grew up by your side. I will not watch you die for him."

"From your son's perspective, he is just a mistake you made in the past."

"Mother, more than a decade has passed. Since you have chosen to enter the palace to fight for power, why can't you cut off the past that cannot be looked back on?"

Concubine Quan lowered her eyes and looked at her hands. Those hands had been used to kill people countless times and were stained with countless blood.

She had originally been unwilling to enter the palace for selection, but she had never expected that the late emperor would marry Min Ning as a concubine.

Being a concubine is really lowly. Concubine Quan was born in a prominent family and she had a strong personality.

Before participating in the talent show, she already had a lover, who was An Yixue's father, An Changqing.

When she helped Min Ning to lure away the assassin, she jumped off a cliff and narrowly escaped death. She finally met her young lover again.

But she was the prince's concubine, and her whereabouts have been unknown for so many years, so she must not show up in public.

Things are unpredictable. An Changqing was forced by his parents to marry. No matter how angry she was, she eventually became a concubine.

Concubine Quan was unwilling to accept this. She thought that the emperor's concubine was greedy for power, and that the mistress was not even as good as the concubine. She actually pursued love, but in the end she didn't even have a legitimate status.

At that time, An Yixue had just learned to walk. Before she passed away, she drugged An Changqing. He would only have An Yixue as his son in his life, so it was impossible for him to treat An Yixue badly.

Yes, I have cut off my past, so why am I still soft-hearted when I see An Yixue?

Min Yucheng saw that Concubine Quan was lost in her memories and was afraid that she would become soft-hearted again.

"Mother, you not only have him as your son, but also me. Moreover, I did not kill my brothers. I had someone secretly tamper with An Yixue's poisoned wine."

"His body was dragged to a mass grave, but there was still a glimmer of hope."

Just when the mother and son were sitting in silence, Min Ning's voice was heard from inside the house.

"Come... ahem, someone come..."

Min Yucheng got up first and walked into the palace. Min Ning lying on the bed seemed to have aged a lot overnight.

The crying Concubine Yi just now fainted and has been sent back to her palace.

Seeing that it was Min Yucheng who came in, Min Ning coughed and waved, "Cheng'er, come forward and let me take a good look at you."

Min Yucheng became even more handsome as an adult, and his noble demeanor made Min Ning feel both proud and jealous.

It's not that Min Ning didn't feel anything. This time when he woke up he felt exhausted, as if all his energy had been drained away.

He knew he might not be able to make it.

But when the old me faced Min Yucheng who was in his prime, I felt unspeakable bitterness in my heart.

Min Yucheng stepped forward and squatted in front of Min Ning, "Father, I am here."

"Good boy."

Min Ning nodded and raised his hand, and Min Yucheng shook his hand tactfully.

"Father, if you have anything to say, you can tell me now."

"Did the imperial physician say that I am dying? I should be going to see your royal grandfather soon. The kingdom I have guarded for so long will now be handed over to you."

Looking at the white hair on Min Ning's head, Min Yucheng felt indescribably complicated.

If Min Ning had not murdered Concubine Quan, he would never have let Concubine Yi take action.

Compared to Min Ning, Concubine Quan, who grew up with him, is naturally more important.

"Father, don't say stupid things..."

"Do not."

Min Ning interrupted, "I know everything. In the future, all of this will be yours."

"Go ahead. I can't get up now, so the entire burden will fall on your shoulders. Let Concubine Yi serve me, and I won't bother Concubine Quan."

After saying that, Min Ning closed his eyes, obviously not wanting to say anything more.

I don’t know if it was because I said too much, but Min Ning’s breathing became much heavier, as if he was having difficulty breathing.

Concubine Quan was standing outside and naturally heard what Min Ning said.
