Cold-faced Empress

Fu Siying demanded in a hoarse voice, "Rong Chen fought for you for six whole years! He was hardworking, loyal, and devoted. Why did you treat him like this!"

They even put Rong Chen's head into this broken box and brought it in front of her to humiliate her!

Faced with Fu Siying's questioning, He Changyi showed an expression of unwillingness to pay attention.

This gave Wei Lanling an opportunity to curry favor with him, and she immediately defended him, saying, "Sister, it's heartbreaking, but don't throw mud at us. The man was killed by the Prince of Beixia; what does it have to do with the Emperor?"

Fu Siying glared at her angrily: "Shameless!"

Wei Lanling sneered: "In the end, isn't it you, sister, who killed Rong Chen? The King of Northern Xia took a liking to you, so why didn't you just go with him? Why did you have to force Rong Chen to go to the King of Northern Xia? Look at you now, Rong Chen's recklessness has angered the King of Northern Xia. I don't think even if you send me there now, it will not quell the King of Northern Xia's anger."

After saying that, he revealed a contemptuous attitude towards Fu Siying, implying that she "lacked common sense".

Not wanting to speak to this bitch any longer, Fu Siying took two big steps forward and stood in front of He Changyi: "When you proposed to me, you said you would protect me, respect me, and love me for life, but now you want to give me to another man? He Changyi, have you fed your conscience to the dogs? If it weren't for my Fu family, how could you have conquered the world!"

Out of consideration for He Changyi's reputation and dignity, Fu Siying never mentioned the Fu family's contributions to the rise of the dynasty in front of him, and also because she believed he wasn't an ungrateful wretch. She never imagined that only now would she see his true colors!

He Changyi, who was only two steps away from her, didn't even glance at her, turning his face away with a cold expression.

Fu Siying continued, "You intend to give your empress away. How will you explain this to the court officials and the world? Don't you have any shame? On a smaller scale, how will you explain this to my father? He is your prime minister, working diligently in his duties, and yet you treat his daughter like this?!"

Upon hearing this, Wei Lanling, who had been silent for a moment, suddenly burst into a series of laughs.

"Hehehe, oh, right, there's something I forgot to tell you, sister," she looked at Fu Siying with endless smugness, "You've always treated me like a cousin, but you don't know that we are actually... half-sisters."

"You!" Instantly, Fu Siying felt as if she had been struck by lightning. She stared at Wei Lanling's smiling face as if she were looking at a ghost with a painted skin.

Half-siblings?!

Her mother and Wei Lanling's mother were biological sisters, known as "Big Sister Li and Little Sister Li". After her mother passed away, she always treated her aunt, Little Sister Li, as her own mother.

But now, Wei Lanling claims to be her biological sister?

Fu Siying never expected this... never expected this!

No wonder her father took such good care of Xiao Li and Wei Lanling, even after her mother's death, he didn't shy away from looking after the two of them. She was truly blinded by greed, actually believing that her father's deep affection for her mother was why he didn't remarry, and that's why he extended his affection for Xiao Li to her.

Wei Lanling was only one year younger than her, which was enough to prove that her father and Xiao Li had been having an affair for a long time.

Suddenly, Fu Siying remembered that her mother had always been depressed in the year before her death. She thought her mother was tormented by illness and had lost her spirit, but now she thought that perhaps her mother already knew the truth.

Wei Lanling was extremely pleased with Fu Siying's heartbroken and battered appearance.

She playfully raised her hand and gently tapped He Changyi's chest: "Your Majesty, my father, the Prime Minister, is quite adept at enjoying the blessings of having two wives, just like you, Your Majesty, hmm?"

How delightful it is to serve sisters together!

Upon hearing this, He Changyi snorted softly, grabbed Wei Lanling's hand, and scolded her with a tone of indulgence: "You're talking nonsense and have no restraint."

"I'm not talking nonsense. Oh, no, my sister is about to go to Northern Xia. Your Majesty is not fortunate enough to have that."

Looking at these two shameless scumbags, Fu Siying was about to start cursing when suddenly, anger surged through her, and she collapsed to her knees, vomiting a mouthful of thick, black blood.

"puff!"

After spitting out a mouthful of black blood, Fu Siying felt even more dizzy and weak. Her internal organs felt displaced, and she experienced excruciating abdominal pain.

Instantly, she was in so much pain that she broke out in a cold sweat.

After carefully placing her younger brother's head aside, Fu Siying couldn't help but curl up on the ground.

No, she can't be hurt. She still needs to avenge Rong Chen, and she still needs to kill that bitch Wei Lanling! She also needs to ask her father if he is indeed a complete scoundrel and hypocrite like He Changyi!

Lying on the ground and enduring the pain for a while, Fu Siying prepared to show weakness and planned to ask He Changyi to summon the imperial physician to treat her. However, when she looked up, she saw Wei Lanling, who was leaning against He Changyi, looking at her with an extremely glaring sneer.

In a flash, a thought she'd never considered before arose. Fu Siying screamed, "You poisoned me?!"

She had been pampered since childhood and was physically strong, but over the past year, she has gradually weakened. Now, she has even reached the point of vomiting blood.

If there is no illness or disaster, and it wasn't poisoned, then what could it be?

Upon hearing this, Wei Lanling reacted quickly, shaking her head repeatedly and saying righteously, "What poisoning? How could you slander me like that, sister?"

Thinking that this bitch was still putting on an act in front of He Changyi, Fu Siying turned to look at He Changyi with a faint hope in her eyes, thinking that he could see through this bitch's vicious face.

Who knows.

With a furrowed brow, He Changyi put his arm around Wei Lanling and said impatiently to Fu Siying, "It has nothing to do with Lanling. It's because your body is too weak and can't withstand the effects of the medicine."

"Medicinal effects?" Fu Siying's mind went blank. "What medicinal effects?"

In all this time, she has only taken one type of medicine.

Because she and He Changyi had been married for many years without having children, they were both under great pressure from the court. So, a year ago, Fu Siying started taking fertility-enhancing drugs that He Changyi had found.

But if it's supposed to be a restorative medicine, why is her health deteriorating, and why is she even vomiting black blood now?

Fu Siying's stunned expression amused Wei Lanling. Wei Lanling chuckled twice, about to speak, when she suddenly lowered her head and covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief, making a vomiting motion.

Seeing this, He Changyi patted Wei Lanling's back gently with concern, asking, "What's wrong?"

"I'm fine," Wei Lanling gagged a few times, put away her handkerchief, smiled, and raised an eyebrow at Fu Siying, saying sarcastically, "Could it be that the Emperor mixed up my and my sister's medicine? My sister wants a child, but I dare not have one because of my awkward status."

Fu Siying stared at Wei Lanling's disgusting pretentious act, unwilling to ponder the hidden meaning in the despicable woman's words.

I got confused...

Did you mix up the medications?

Ah!

Hahahaha!

brazen!

How callous!
