Chapter 510 He Has Soft Spots Too

ht of the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, was the Empress Dowager truly called to Yanghua Palace"The eunuch nodded, "It is true, it was the Emperor himself who came to call her. At that time...Yungang Palace experienced another sleepless night

For Empress Li, since the second day of the first lunar month, sleepless nights followed one after another, almost without interruption. 。This sleepless night is brought by the warmth of words, by the machinations of the Regent King, by the presence of the esteemed Emperor, and now, it is also brought by her other son—the power-wrought Power Qingyin raised from childhood. 。When the Sixth Prince entered the palace, it was already dark and the palace gates were locked. 。He said it was about the Princess's case, and he had urgent business to see the Emperor. 。When the Imperial Guards heard it was about the Princess, they immediately let her through. 。Yet, unknown to all, Quan Qing had secretly entered the palace through Deyang Gate and instead of going to the Immortal Palace to see the Emperor, he went straight to Yong'an Palace. 。When Empress Li saw him, she was troubled over the betrothal of Yanhuagong to the General's Mansion. 。Before this matter came to light, she could still pretend and hold onto a sliver of hope, thinking that the Emperor simply found Ye Wenyan interesting and amusing, that it would pass in time. 。As the imperial decree has been issued, and after the grand betrothal ceremony, the news has spread throughout the land. Now, Ye Wenyan is known to all as the future empress. 。From now on, if she ever sees Ye Wenyan again, she'll have to show him respect, her status instantly dropping several notches. 。The arrival of Quan Qingyin made things even more upsetting for her! This son had never been raised beside her, and he wasn't close to her at all. She simply couldn't bring herself to like this son. 。She was preoccupied with her son, Lu'er's whereabouts and didn't care about the fate of this son at all. 。But this very son came to her for an accounting, and when the blood-stained whip was taken out of his sleeve, Li Xiaohan subconsciously cried out in alarm, pointing at Quan Qingyin and saying: "Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning"Quan Qingyin laughed, "You're not afraid of it, so what am I afraid of If heaven really could strike down anyone with lightning, it should have struck you and Quan Ji dead twenty years ago. We wouldn't even be born! It's clear that heaven is blind, it can't see the filth and grime in the world, so naturally it can't see me whipping my own mother. " 。But don't worry, I won't hit you. I brought this whip just to show you, look at the blood and flesh on it This is the blood and flesh of Ye Hongzhuang's family, and even Mrs. Ye... 。All those who conspired with you at first, all those who plotted with you to switch the bride, none of them escaped. 。He stepped closer to Li Xiaohan, step by step. The maidservant from Wen Shi tried to stop him, but he pushed her away with all his might. 。"But drawing out the night family wasn't enough to vent my anger. I don't really hate them; what I truly hate is the person who pointed at Quan Qinglu and told Yan’er that he was a benefactor..." 。"Mother, can you tell me who that person is" Li Xiaohan suddenly became excited, not because of Quan Qingyin's question, but because she heard her Lu'er's name from Quan Qingyin's mouth. 。She rushed forward, grabbed Quan Qingyin's collar, and shouted at him, "Where is Lu'er Where have you taken Lu'er You two are devils, you don't even spare your own son and brother, give my Lu'er back to me!" From Wen was frightened and quickly reminded loudly, "Your Majesty, what are you saying Your Majesty, are you confused by the Sixth Prince's anger Sixth Prince, you can't stimulate Your Majesty anymore. Your Majesty hasn't slept well these past few days and has been talking nonsense. Don't upset her anymore." 。“While she spoke, she hurried back to check that the palace gate was securely shut. She longed to stand outside and guard it, but feared that this Sixth Palace Lord, if he lost control, might strike down the Empress. If that happened, it would be disastrous.” 。

From Wen dared not go out, he could only stay by Li Xiao Han's side.

Li Xiaohan completely ignored her reminder, relentlessly asking about Qu Qinglu's whereabouts. 。en sighed and stood up, gently blocking the sixth prince's whip as it swung again. "Stop beating him," she said, "His life has to be kept, we still have some family matters to clarify." 。Even if he de...
