The day her husband welcomed the time-traveling girl into the house, she woke up
Chapter 242 He won’t believe anyone except himself!
"How did the Emperor know of the existence of that edict?"
Yin Wanyu did not answer Li Shu's question for a long time.
After a long while, he sighed deeply and said, "Perhaps when my father handed the imperial edict to me, someone had already informed the current emperor, so my husband died."
"Didn't your consort die while shielding the Emperor from an arrow? Could it be that the people who attacked the Emperor were his own men? And did the Emperor even anticipate that your consort would shield him from an arrow?"
"Well, it was only after I lost my twin babies that I learned that the attack was a test from the current emperor for my consort.
If my husband had hesitated even a little, the emperor would have put him on the list of assassins and exterminated his entire family.
But my husband showed his loyalty by his death, but the emperor still did not let go of his clansmen and me who was holding my father's will.
First, they had people repeatedly accuse my husband of being among those who plotted the assassination in the court. Later, they forged various letters implicating my husband in the plot and put my entire family in jail.
After many fruitless attempts, I was forced to voluntarily hand over the imperial edict in exchange for the safety of my husband and his family..."
Hearing this, Li Shu couldn't help but interrupt Yin Wanyu, "Grandmother, had already given the imperial edict to the emperor at that time?"
Yin Wanyu nodded slowly.
Li Shu then immediately asked, "Why has the Emperor sent so many people to Grandmother over the years to look for that imperial edict?"
"Alas! This is why my father despises the current emperor! Although most rulers are suspicious by nature, his suspicion is so severe that he will not trust anyone except himself!
When I handed the imperial edict to him, he confirmed its authenticity in front of me and burned it in front of me. He also promised not to cause trouble for my eldest brother's family. But a few years later, I heard from a friend that my eldest brother and his wife were killed by their enemies, and their only bloodline fell into the Yellow River during the pursuit, and their life and death are unknown.
Before that, I had never met them, and I didn't even know what they looked like, because I was worried about bringing disaster to my eldest brother's family. When I learned that their family was in trouble, I immediately guessed that it was the work of the current emperor. I immediately decided to find the child that my father favored at all costs.
But before I could take action, someone in the capital started saying that they had seen my prince consort. The rumor was so detailed that I lost interest in looking for the child. But no matter how hard I looked, I couldn't find any clues. Finally, I fell seriously ill. After I recovered, the emperor sent two men who looked exactly like my prince consort to my princess's mansion, saying that with them by my side, if my prince consort was not dead, he would definitely come to see me.
It was then that I realized that the rumor that someone had seen my prince consort was the emperor's handiwork, just to prevent me from looking for the child. But I never expected that the emperor would even use a poison on me to make me favor the male favorites he sent me, as if the rumor was not his handiwork but the truth. At that time, I was so tired that I almost gave up on myself, so I simply followed his wish and favored all the men he sent me.
Later, I unexpectedly learned of a rumor in the palace known only to a few people. It said that my father had given me two imperial edicts. During that time, I happened to meet your mother. From her clever and cunning mother, I learned some mechanical tricks. I set up a few in the palace to trick the current emperor. I didn't expect that to this day, no one has cracked those tricks, and the emperor hasn't given up the search! "
So what the emperor spent so many years trying to find is something that doesn't exist?
Li Shu was speechless.
Yin Wanyu continued, "When the first male favorite climbed into my bed, I asked someone to prepare a sterilization drug the next day. But the doctor who prepared the sterilization drug for me took my pulse out of caution before I took the drug. Then he told me that even if I didn't take the sterilization drug, I would not be able to have children again because I was poisoned by a chronic poison.
Although the poison did not kill me, it made it impossible for me to bear children. Even my previous miscarriage was caused by the chronic poison. I knew that the person who poisoned me was the current emperor, but I could do nothing about him. I could not avenge the murder of my husband and son, and I could not even end my life because I had to protect the entire family of my husband. For several years, I lived in a daze, like a walking corpse, until I read the letter your mother gave me before she passed away.
But at that time, I only believed about 60% of what your mother wrote in the letter. When you sent someone to find me, I believed it completely and finally came back to life..."
At this point, Yin Wanyu took Li Shu's hand and said, "I've been dreaming about my husband quite often lately. Perhaps that means the day when I can avenge my great vengeance is not far away."
Li Shu pursed her lips tightly and subconsciously held Yin Wanyu's hand tightly.
For some reason, she had a bad feeling.
But Yin Wanyu didn't give her time to savor her premonition. She quickly added, "I know you killed Jiang Zhiyu. Logically, Jiang Zhiyi couldn't be spared to eliminate future troubles. But that child looked too much like my husband. Even the way he danced with the sword had some of my husband's shadow, so I couldn't bring myself to kill him. I was secretly relieved when he suddenly disappeared before. Who would have thought that he would fall into your hands by mistake? So, it's up to you to decide whether to kill him or let him go."
"Ah."
Li Shu nodded, but her mind was still in a mess until she left the Grand Princess's Mansion.
When she returned to her own residence, Lin'an, who had been waiting in her courtyard, came to her and reported: "Miss, there is news from the palace that the queen has woken up."
Li Shu hurried out of the house and went to the palace again.
So much so that he completely forgot about Jiang Zhiyi.
But when she entered the palace, she did not see the queen.
As soon as she entered Fengyi Palace, she was intercepted by the people in front of Yin Feier.
When she entered Yin Fei'er's bedroom, Yin Fei'er saw Lin Yuan following closely behind her. Her eyes suddenly widened. She pulled her into the inner hall and asked in a low voice, "Sister Ali, you actually brought Lin Yuan into the palace so blatantly! Didn't you say that the emperor already knew that Lin Yuan was the one who had repeatedly sneaked into Fengyi Palace to cause trouble?"
"Well, I want to confirm one thing."
"What is it?"
"I'll tell you later."
"How long will it take? It won't be long before I get married!"
"I will definitely tell you before you get married."
"OK then."
Yin Feier curled her lips, turned her head and glanced outside, then whispered, "Sister Ali, you came to the palace to confirm whether it was the queen mother who woke up, right? I already went to confirm it, and it's not her!"
