Dressed as a concubine instead of a concubine

Chapter 128 The Concubine's Conspiracy

"It's not that Wang didn't want to tell Father, but she didn't dare to, and she had no way to tell you."

Xie Junyi said coldly, "One month after my father left Jiangnan, she found out that she was pregnant. She was very scared and sent a message to my father right away."

"A message? I have never received one."

After leaving Jiangnan, he never received any letters from Wang Rou.

"Father naturally didn't receive it, because the letter was intercepted by someone, and the Wang family also suffered a devastating disaster because of this letter."

Wang Rou originally thought that she would be waiting for the emperor to take her back to the palace. The emperor had also promised her that he would send someone to pick her up after he returned to the capital.

But what she waited for was not an order to bring her into the palace, but the massacre of her entire family.

Overnight, all her family members fell one by one in front of her.

The mansion that was full of laughter and joy during the day turned into a purgatory at night.

If Wang had not been hidden by her mother, she would not have survived.

She hid in the dark room of the house and heard the killer say that he must find her body.

Only then did she realize that these people were coming for her.

But how could she, a weak woman, be hunted down by so many killers, except for the child in her belly.

She knew the emperor's identity and understood that it must have been done by someone around him.

She was terribly scared, but luckily, the killers didn't recognize her.

Her personal maid happened to be wearing the gorgeous clothes that she had just given her, and the maid was also good-looking, so the killer mistakenly thought that the target had been eliminated.

Wang Rou, who escaped, destroyed her own appearance, changed her real name and introduced herself only as Madam Wang. No one knew her true identity except Wang Ruixuan and the old housekeeper who had been taking care of them.

The extermination of the Wang family was simply defined by the government as a murder by bandits, and the case was hastily closed.

She wanted to redress her grievances and seek revenge, but she also understood that her power was weak and she was afraid that she would be dealt with before she even reached the capital.

In order to protect her child, she had to suppress her hatred and raise the child.

No one can avenge the blood feud of the Wang family except the emperor.

The only person who could go before the emperor to appeal for justice was Wang Ruixuan.

Therefore, even though life was tight, she still tried her best to support Wang Ruixuan's education and learning to read and write.

I just hope he can pass the imperial examination and become the top scorer, so he can stand before the emperor with dignity.

But she never got to see that day. Years of overwork and depression led to her death a year ago with resentment.

In order to protect Wang Ruixuan, she did not tell him her true identity.

He only told the butler and asked him to bring Wang Ruixuan to Beijing.

The housekeeper lived up to her trust and sent Wang Ruixuan to the capital at the cost of his own life.

The emperor was not a fool. When he heard that the letter was blocked, he knew who did it.

The only one who went to the south of the Yangtze River with him was the imperial concubine.

As the imperial concubine was unwell, she stayed in the villa to recuperate. The emperor went out to play by himself, and that's when he met Wang Rou and fell in love with her at first sight.

The emperor did not hide this matter from the imperial concubine.

He is the emperor. Even if he likes the imperial concubine, it is impossible for him to have no other concubines.

The imperial concubine also showed magnanimity, saying that although Wang's daughter was of humble origin, she was well-educated, talented and beautiful, and that once she entered the palace, she would be conferred the title of concubine.

The emperor was very happy after hearing this, and promised her that he would not neglect the imperial concubine because of any other woman.

Next, the imperial concubine was very sensible and did not disturb the two people's interaction. Instead, she gave the emperor plenty of space.

This made the emperor even more satisfied with her.

After spending more than a month in Jiangnan, there was an urgent matter in the capital, so the emperor was asked to return.

The emperor originally wanted to take Wang back with him, but was stopped by the imperial concubine.

She said that the purpose of this tour was to understand the people's sentiments. If she brought back a woman with great fanfare, people would inevitably misunderstand the emperor's purpose of coming to Jiangnan.

Let him wait a little longer, and they will return to the capital first. When they get there, they will issue an imperial decree to make her a concubine.

This is the correct procedure and can also preserve the Wang family's reputation.

What the imperial concubine said made sense, so the emperor agreed without much hesitation.

But as soon as he returned to the capital, he received news that the Wang family had met with an unexpected disaster.

He was heartbroken and ordered the bandits to be torn into pieces, but even so, she could not come back.

The emperor always thought that everything was just an accident and that they were not destined to be together.

But he didn't expect that everything was man-made, and it was the people closest to him.

He shook his head in disbelief. "The Imperial Concubine would never do this. She has no reason to do this. She is kind-hearted and would not even kill an ant. How could she possibly harm Rou'er?"

Hearing these words, Xie Junyi sneered. He was kind-hearted. The emperor probably didn't know that the reason he had so few children was all thanks to this kind-hearted concubine.

"The reason why the imperial concubine did this is because she knew that Wang was different from other concubines. She had really entered the heart of the emperor and was a threat to her position."

Even though she hated her own mother, the imperial concubine had nothing to fear because the emperor didn't care about her as the queen.

But Wang Rou was different. In just one month, the emperor held her in the palm of his hand and even neglected himself for her.

How could the imperial concubine bear it, especially since she knew she was pregnant.

Xie Junyi presented all the results of his investigation in Jiangnan to the emperor.

"Father, these are all evidence of the Wang family being exterminated. It was not done by bandits at all. They were all killed by the secret guards around the imperial concubine, and the governor of Jiangnan was also an accomplice."

What the imperial concubine did back then was not a clean matter. If you want to investigate, you can easily find clues.

Perhaps the imperial concubine herself has already forgotten about this matter.

The emperor couldn't help but tremble when he held these ironclad evidences. The woman he loved most was killed by the imperial concubine he had always doted on.

He closed his eyes and said angrily, "Go and call the imperial concubine, go quickly."

The imperial concubine has already learned that Xie Junyi brought a child into the palace to meet the emperor.

But she didn't know the child's identity, so she ignored it.

When she learned that she was suddenly summoned, she was a little confused, but at the same time she had a bad feeling in her heart. She quickly asked the palace maid beside her to go out and inform King Liang.

She dressed up and then walked slowly to the imperial study. When she walked outside the door, she saw the queen coming.

She frowned slightly. The news she received was that the emperor only summoned her. What was the Queen trying to do by coming here in such a hurry?

Or what conspiracy this mother and son have.

She raised her head and forced a smile.

"Greetings to the Queen."

"Your Highness, there is no need to be so polite."

The Queen replied calmly, "Should we go in and see what happened?"
