Chapter 153 Important Officials
Xu Qingyin accepted everything she said, without even a ripple in her heart.
Losing is losing. Now she just wants to save her mother's life and make plans for the future.
But now, if I can save my mother's life, I will let her do anything.
The imperial concubine glanced lightly at Xu Qingyin, and seeing that her expression didn't change at all, she felt a little angry for some reason.
"You are just as troubled as your mother. I never thought your mother would discover my secret so early, and even gave the Queen Mother Ruyi Powder!
"If it weren't for her, how could I have fallen to the point where I have no support in the court? Anyone who dared to fight me has already suffered a good fate. If you can't even endure this little bit of hardship, why did you provoke me in the first place?"
Xu Qingyin didn't hear a word of the Royal Concubine's venting words. She just knelt on the ground blankly, trying to think clearly about what she wanted and how to get the Royal Concubine's forgiveness.
"If the Imperial Concubine can release my mother, I can work for you in the future."
The imperial concubine laughed again:
"Working for me? Who do you think you are? Even though you've been trying your best for so long, attacking the emperor is your last resort, right? But has this shaken my position in the slightest?"
Although what she said was true, Xu Qingyin still had one last trump card.
The bracelet on her hand is her final trump card.
Although I don’t know how my mother forged it, if the imperial concubine knew about this bracelet, all the current difficulties would be solved.
Isn't her goal to control the entire Yunjin? This bracelet is really too useful to him.
The supplies and support available, even with modern medical technology, were a devastating blow.
Moreover, Xu Qingyin doesn't have to worry about being controlled by the imperial concubine, as the bracelet might be broken or destroyed by her.
Because she had tried this bracelet herself before, although it looked like very high-quality jade on the surface, it actually seemed to be harder than diamond.
Normally it cannot be damaged at all, and she doesn't have to worry that the imperial concubine will take it away and do something evil.
Because this bracelet can only be used by Xu Qingyin and Lu Yan, even Xu Luohan has no way to return to the modern era through this bracelet.
But if things came to this point, Xu Qingyin knew that if the secret of the bracelet was revealed, she might be controlled and used by the imperial concubine because her mother was always controlled and used by the imperial concubine, and she might even be controlled by others forever.
Just as Xu Qingyin was hesitating whether to reveal her final trump card, she heard a loud commotion outside:
"The Imperial Concubine is dying, Your Majesty...it seems she is dying..."
The imperial physician from the palace shook his head when he came over, not even daring to look into the imperial concubine's eyes. When he knelt, he lowered his head very low and his voice trembled.
The imperial concubine dropped the teacup in her hand to the ground.
"You are such a bunch of useless people. The emperor is usually in such good health, how could he die after spitting out a mouthful of blood in the court? What's the point of keeping a bunch of useless people like you?
"Call the imperial physicians, and keep calling me imperial physicians! Even those talented ordinary traveling doctors in the city will do. If His Majesty can't cure me now, I want your entire Imperial Hospital buried with him!"
Feeling the imperial concubine's anger, the man nodded hurriedly and crawled out of the courtyard where the imperial concubine was.
When she heard this, Xu Qingyin tightly grasped her blue and gold satin skirt and did not continue to say those words.
If the emperor passed away, she could now breathe a sigh of relief regarding the system's tasks.
The only thing I'm worried about now is my mother...
Even if Lu Zhou becomes the emperor now, at least the system's mission has been completed.
Moreover, if Lu Zhou had just come to power, in order to consolidate his position, he would not have been able to send his brothers to guard the border so quickly.
The Imperial Concubine paced back and forth, looking at Xu Qingyin lying on the ground. She was about to win over Xu Qingyin and make her work for her, when she suddenly heard someone shouting in the distance:
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something terrible has happened!"
The imperial concubine pushed everything on the table to the ground so violently that even the fresh goat milk was overturned.
The goat milk flowed through the gaps between the golden tiles on the floor and landed beside Xu Qingyin's skirt.
"Every day, nothing but terrible things happen! Terrible things happen! Why are you all so unlucky? What use do I have for you?"
The words have come to this point, but the little fourth below can't help but speak out. His voice is slightly cautious and he is ready to die.
"Your Highness, please calm down. I... I don't want to do this either... It's just that the prison outside was broken into!
"Master Xu has gone there and no trace of him has been found. The Dali Temple is investigating, but they did it in a very covert way... We don't know who the prison breakers are..."
When she said this, the imperial concubine in front of her kicked the eunuch fiercely like a madman, then pointed at Xu Qingyin angrily, as if mocking her:
"I thought you came here today to surrender, but I didn't expect you to make secondary preparations. Your mother was even kidnapped!
"But have you ever considered that the emperor is about to pass away? If my son ascends the throne and becomes the emperor, and I become the empress dowager, what way will you have left? By then, it won't just be your mother who will die. You must think carefully."
Xu Qingyin's skirt was stained with goat milk, and her back felt cold.
But I really don’t know about this.
She didn't even know when the prison break was carried out.
But since they wanted to kidnap her mother, they must not be the Imperial Concubine's men, and they would definitely not do any harm to her mother. At least she was relieved now, and now she would have more courage to face the Imperial Concubine.
Now that her mother was safe and the system's task had been successfully completed, she had nothing to worry about and stood up from the ground.
"My mother has never committed any sin. If it's Ruyi Powder, it's just a very common tonic. Who could have predicted it? It's just that right and wrong are in the hearts of the people."
Looking at Xu Qingyin in front of her, the imperial concubine almost wanted to slap her, but she grabbed her fiercely:
"Your Highness, please consider this carefully. Your son is about to ascend the throne, and his position is unstable. If you personally assault an important official here, do you want your son to bear the consequences?"
