The Miracle Doctor’s Two-Faced Toddler

ng?

The person who should have suffered was Worthy Consort Xu, but Worthy Consort Xu pulled Noble Lady Liu as her scapegoat.

Is she so vicious? If someone wants to harm her, she can just expose them.
Why did she harm the innocent Noble Lady Liu?

Noble Lady Liu is close to the Empress.
Back then, we all suspected that the Empress was pretending to treat Noble Lady Liu well, but in fact, she was looking for an opportunity to secretly harm Noble Lady Lius child.
It seems that we were all wrong.

Thats right, they had no chance to verify it.
When these rumors reached the Emperors ears, he got someone to drag a few palace maids out and beat them to death.
From then on, no one in the palace dared to gossip about this matter.
However, although the rumors were suppressed, the seed in the Emperors heart quietly sprouted.

Yes, I was the one who poisoned her, but I didnt want to harm Noble Lady Lius child! Im the Empress, and Your Majestys children are also my children.
Why would I harm my own children? So what if I snatched her son to raise him? Shes just a noble lady.
Who can say anything? Noble Lady Lius fetus is no threat to me.
I have no reason to harm him!

These were the Empresss words back then.
The Emperor could not accept that the gentle and virtuous wife had become an evil woman.
He was also angry at the arrogance in her words.
No matter who the person she really wanted to harm was, he did not want to forgive her.

It was not that the Empress had not accused Worthy Consort Xu, but the personal palace maid of Noble Lady Liu had testified that Noble Lady Liu had gone to the imperial garden by herself and had nothing to do with anyone.
Therefore, the Emperor thought that the Empress had poisoned Noble Lady Liu first and framed Worthy Consort Xu later.

When did the rumors about Worthy Consort Xu and Noble Lady Liu spread? The Emperor asked.

Two days before the fire, Eunuch Wang said.

Was the arsonist?

Yes, its a secret guard.
He He didnt have time to say.
He committed suicide by taking poison.

If the secret guard accused Worthy Consort Xu, it would arouse the Emperors suspicion, but he died without a word.

The Emperor looked thoughtful.
What do you think?

I dont dare to say anything, Eunuch Wang whispered.

Just say it! The Emperor said coldly.

Yes.
Eunuch Wang broke out in cold sweat.
I feel that if the rumors are true, and the Empress did want to scheme against Worthy Consort Xu back then, but Worthy Consort Xu saw through it first and pulled Noble Lady Liu as a scapegoat, then Worthy Consort Xus schemes are a little terrifying.

The Emperor narrowed his eyes.
So you mean that this time, its not the Empresss ruse, but Worthy Consorts? When Worthy Consort heard the rumors, she thought that she couldnt hide the matter of Noble Lady Liu anymore and was worried that I would favor the Empress again, so she decided to burn the Empress to death?

Eunuch Wang did not say yes or no.
He only sighed slowly and said, The Empress has lost favor for ten years.
She cant set off such a fire.

But what if someone set it for her? The Emperor said coldly.

Eunuch Wangs eyebrows twitched.

The Emperor slammed the table and said, Call that brat over!

Eunuch Wang went to the Young Master Manor with a headache and invited this little ancestor to the imperial study.

Young Master, cant you not cause trouble for a day?

Eunuch Wang almost knelt down in front of Yan Jiuchao.
One who could not settle down for a day, this would be referring to him!

His Majesty is inside.
You-you can go in.
Eunuch Wang sent him to the door of the imperial study and sighed before leaving.

Yan Jiuchao sat in his wheelchair, looking arrogant.

The Emperor was furious when he saw him.
When he thought of what he had done, he became even angrier.
He glanced at his wheelchair and said, Are you done pretending?!

No, Yan Jiuchao said.

The Emperor picked up an inkstone and was about to hit Yan Jiuchaos head when Eunuch Wang ran in in shock.
You cant smash him! Your Majesty, calm down!

The Emperor was trembling with anger.
He threw away the inkstone and sat down.
Speak! Did you set off the fire in the Fengshai Palace?!

Yes.
He admitted it without hesitation.

The Emperor, who had thought of a hundred ways to force a confession:

Eunuch Wang couldnt bear to look at him anymore.
Was he stupid? He admitted it without being punished?

The Emperor suppressed his anger and said in a cold voice, Why did you do that?

Yan Jiuchao remained silent.

The Emperor said angrily, Yan Jiuchao, I can give you a Princess Consort now!

For the golden seal, Yan Jiuchao said with a compromising expression.

The Emperors anger paused, and he frowned with a complicated expression.
You mean the Empress threatened you with the golden seal?

Yan Jiuchao sighed.
Its not a threat.
Its just a deal.

The Emperor gritted his teeth.
Youre making a deal with my woman in my harem.
Yan Jiuchao, you really have the guts to admit it!

Yan Jiuchao did not say anything.

The Emperor snorted coldly.
But theres nothing you can do if you dont admit it.
You set such a big fire in my palace.
Do you really think I cant find out? I dont understand.
For a woman, you actually Do you really care so much about her?

Has His Majesty never cared so much about someone? Yan Jiuchao asked.

The Emperor was stumped.
This might be the madness in their family.
Back then, for Prince Yan

The Emperor closed his eyes and forced himself not to remember what happened with the late Emperor.
He changed the topic and his voice became much more haggard.
Why is the Empress such a person?

A moment ago, he was still moved by her snatching their wedding gift in the fire.
Now that he knew that everything was a scheme, he felt an indescribable disgust.
He originally thought that even if she did something wrong, she was at least sincere to him.
From the looks of it, he had been stupid.

How are you going to punish me, Uncle?

Of course I have to punish you!

However, he had not thought of how to punish him.
He was in a terrible mood.
He told Yan Jiuchao to get lost and return to the Young Master Manor first.
Without his decree, he was not allowed to take half a step out of the manor.

On the way out of the palace, Eunuch Wang said earnestly, Young Master, why did you confess? His Majesty actually cant find out about you.
I Ill try my best to put in a good word for you.

Yan Jiuchao did not answer him.
Instead, he asked, Eunuch Wang, do you know why His Majesty hasnt dealt with the Empress all these years and has only imprisoned her in the Fengshai Palace?

Eunuch Wang thought for a while.
His Majesty was concerned about their marital relationship back then.

Yan Jiuchao nodded.
Thats right.
Thats why His Majesty cant be ruthless to the Empress, nor can he bear to use her.
However, from today onwards, His Majesty will have the heart to do so.

His Majesty would still let the Empress regain her favor, but it was not because he wanted to reconcile with her, but to keep Worthy Consort Xu in check.
To Yan Jiuchao, compared to a favored Empress, a chess piece Empress was naturally easier to control.

Eunuch Wang, who had come to his senses, sighed.
Young Master, youre really hard-hearted.
