Yixiu is reborn, fights against her elder sister, and becomes the queen mother

"The Queen is here!"

Yixiu knelt on the ground and greeted the Empress Dowager, saying, "Your son greets the Empress Dowager. May the Empress Dowager be blessed with good health."

The Queen Mother coughed twice and smiled, "Get up! The Emperor is seriously ill now, and you have to deal with all the affairs of the harem. Why are you here with me?"

Yixiu raised her head and looked at the Empress Dowager, and said slowly, "I have something to say to the Empress Dowager. Please excuse me, Empress Dowager."

The Queen Mother smiled and said, "You all should go down first. Ai Jia and the Queen have something to discuss."

After everyone left, Yixiu asked directly, "Why did the Empress Dowager cooperate with Longkodo? Did the Empress Dowager want Tong Jia to be the Empress?"

The Empress Dowager looked Yixiu up and down with a half-smile on her face. Who would have thought that the concubine who was looked down upon by everyone back then would become the Empress of the Qing Dynasty today?

She said meaningfully, "Yixiu, do you still remember why you married the emperor?"

Yixiu sat on the couch and said in a deep voice, "Does the Queen Mother insist that a woman from the Ulanara family always be the Queen? Are the men of the Ulanara family so unreliable?"

The Queen Mother sneered, "I can only take care of the present, not the future."

The Queen Mother's voice was somewhat cold. "Queen, are you planning to accuse me of being cruel and hard-hearted? Haven't you done anything dirty yourself?"

"I turned a blind eye to Rouze's affairs back then. They are all women of the Ulanara family, and anyone can be the queen. I don't mind that. But if the queen position is not from the Ulanara family, then I will not agree."

Seeing that Yixiu didn't say anything, the Queen Mother smiled to herself and said, "Long Keduo thought he had deceived me again, but in fact, I deceived him this time. After this incident, a chasm has been created between Tong Jia and the Crown Prince. That is the Crown Prince's first child. Tong Jia will never be able to become the Queen in this lifetime."

Yixiu frowned and asked, "Aren't you, Queen Mother, worried that if Fucha finds out about this, it will be detrimental to Prince Xun?"

The Fucha family is not someone to be trifled with, and the Empress Dowager is naturally aware of this.

The Queen Mother smiled and said to Yixiu, "Yixiu, one can't have everything. Since you've chosen power and status, you can't expect true love. You're luckier than I am. Your son is loyal to you, your daughter is caring and reliable, and you have good sisters who can support each other. This life is worth it."

After saying this, the Queen Mother drank the tea in the cup resolutely.

Yixiu was startled by her, and when she came to her senses, the Queen Mother had already coughed up blood.

Yixiu was horrified. She really couldn't understand what the empress dowager was doing. Just this one incident was not enough to force the empress dowager to commit suicide!

The Queen Mother quietly took Yixiu's hand and said with a deep look in her eyes, "I will not allow anyone to destroy the glory of the Ulanara family."

After saying this, the Queen Mother breathed her last.

Zhuxi looked at the sun outside, and then went to call the imperial physician as instructed by the empress dowager.

In less than a day, three major events occurred in the palace. The Crown Prince's concubine, Fucha, suffered a miscarriage. Ru Yan went crazy and hit Fucha, suffering retribution herself, with two lives lost. The Empress Dowager, already seriously ill, was overcome with grief and anger upon hearing the news and passed away.

The Queen Mother's death is a major event.

The nobles and relatives in the court, princes and ministers, concubines in the palace, ladies of high rank, and several of the emperor's sons were summoned in.

Among them, Prince Xun was the one who could least accept the death of the Empress Dowager.

If the prince had not stopped him, he would have almost caused a scene in the Imperial Hospital.

Prince Xun said in a state of despair, "How could the Empress Dowager be gone? A few days ago, I went to the palace to pay my respects to the Empress Dowager. At that time, the Empress Dowager was fine. The Empress Dowager was fine."

The prince advised, "The Empress Dowager's health is not very good right now. She must be having trouble accepting the news that Concubine and Ruxu had miscarriages one after another, so..."

Of course, I don't believe this reason, but I have to keep my Fourteenth Uncle calm. I can't let him destroy the Imperial Hospital, right?

Prince Xun still didn't believe it. He clamored to see the Empress Dowager's medical records. Yixiu was having a headache now. She winked at the Crown Prince, indicating that he should knock Prince Xun unconscious.

After being struck by the Crown Prince's knife, Prince Xun finally collapsed on the ground and stopped making a fuss.

After dealing with these matters, Yixiu and the prince took a short rest in the side hall.

The mother and son took this opportunity to analyze the situation.

"The Queen Mother must have some unspeakable truth, otherwise she wouldn't have committed suicide like this. You have to be careful. There are many things going on in the imperial court and the harem right now, and the Emperor is seriously ill. I'm afraid there will be chaos."

The prince nodded and exploded a big thunder at Yixiu again.

"The Queen Mother agreed to Longkodo's request because he and the Queen Mother had a secret affair. Longkodo knows too much. For the sake of the royal family's dignity and the stability of the court, he must not be allowed to stay."

Yixiu's eyes widened in shock, but she still nodded in agreement, "Just do as you say. You've got to appease the Fucha family."

The Crown Prince rubbed his brows wearily. "After hearing the news, Fu Cha didn't say anything. She just hoped that I could treat her better in the future. If Ru Yi agreed, two lives would have been lost. This can be considered her retribution."

At the same time, Zhu Xi had quietly come to Prince Xun while everyone was busy.

She took out a silver needle from her sleeve and inserted it into Prince Xun's acupuncture point, and Prince Xun opened his eyes.

Prince Xun thought he had just had a dream, and when he woke up, his mother was still alive. He grabbed her and asked:

"Where is the Empress Dowager? Where is the Empress Dowager?"

Zhuxi pulled his hand away and said in a sorrowful tone, "Prince Xun, the Empress Dowager has passed away."

Prince Xun's eyes were filled with tears. It is said that men do not shed tears easily, but at this moment he could not control his emotions at all. This was his mother who loved him and raised him since he was a child!

"Empress Mother! Why did you leave? Why did you leave your son alone? You haven't even seen him get married and have children!"

At this moment, Prince Xun finally accepted the fact that the Queen Mother was dead.

Zhuxi looked around and finally took out a letter from the empress dowager from his sleeve and handed it to Prince Xun.

"Your Highness, the Queen Mother asked you to take good care of yourself. She also told me to tell you that love can mean both love and harm. From now on, no one will protect you. Think carefully before you do anything."

Prince Xun tremblingly opened the Queen Mother's suicide note. Xun, no one knows a son better than his mother. The Queen Mother had already noticed Prince Xun's thoughts. In addition, she was already seriously ill and had only a few days to live. Due to some unavoidable circumstances, she had no choice but to resort to this last resort and intervene personally.
