C830 That Child will Blame Me

Jian Xiuheng shook his head and even raised his head to smile at the old mama, "mama is too old to run and still need to work. I should go and play with elder sister. I have already told elder sister that I will go and play with her next time."

The old mama's movements were firm as she looked at Jian Xiuheng with a pair of blurry eyes, "Princess is willing to play with His Highness?"

Jian Xiuheng did not answer and only said, "I have said that I will go and play with elder sister next time. I cannot go back on my word."

The old mama understood and held Jian Xiuheng's hand, "Follow mama back to the Palace, and later go and pay a visit to the Empress."

When Jian Xiuheng heard that he could pay a visit to the Empress, his little face immediately flushed red with excitement. He grabbed mama's hand and jumped. "I haven't spoken to mother for a long time. Mother is finally done with her work?"

When the old mama heard Jian Xiuheng's words, her heart felt bitter. The Emperor did not dote on him and the Empress always ignored him. If one day she was gone, how could he survive in this deep palace?

The old mama's turbid eyes revealed a helpless and desolate look. "Does little highness like the empress?"

Jian Xiuheng's reply was clear and quick, "Of course! Every time I go back to find my mother, I will be fragrant, and I can even eat delicious pastries."

"Then what if I let little prince stay in Phoenix Perching Palace?"

"That's great!" Jian Xiuheng smiled happily and narrowed his eyes. "Will mama accompany me?"

The old mama lovingly stroked Jian Xiuheng's thin and weak back and smiled. "I will."

The old mama brought Jian Xiuheng back to the Cold Palace, served him dinner, took a shower, changed into the cleanest and most decent clothes, and then led him to greet the Empress.

Ever since the Empress gave birth to these two children, they had been lingering on the sickbed. After a few years, the entire Phoenix Perching Palace was bitter as if it was soaked in medicine.

When the Empress saw the two people kneeling on the ground, her expression was indifferent. She called for someone to get up and give them a seat, then continued to cough softly.

The old mama begged for a memorial, and the Empress let the palace maid bring Jian Xiuheng away.

The old mama knelt down and solidly kowtowed, "Has the Empress abandoned the Little Highness?"

The Empress only coughed intermittently but did not speak. The old mama bowed her body and said in a low voice, "Since the Empress has already chosen this path, why should she give up again?"

Because she coughed all year round, her throat was also extremely hoarse, "That child will blame me."

"Her Highness is still young, as long as Her Ladyship is willing to teach him."

"One day, he will find out."

"To ascend to the throne, or to silently die in the Cold Palace. Your Highness has no choice, it all depends on your Ladyship."

The Empress looked at the burning red candles outside the curtains and calmly said, "Then I have to watch them kill each other for the throne."

"This is the choice of Your Majesty and your Ladyship. That child is so innocent." The mama raised her head to look at the Empress behind the curtains and said in a deep voice, "His Majesty has made the opposite choice from back then. Could it be that the Empress also wants it? If that is the case, it would be better to finish him off earlier. It also saves you from harboring hopes and suffering for nothing. "

"Are you blaming me?"

" This old servant wouldn't dare. " The old mama pressed on again, but her tone was incomparably firm, "This old servant only ask that Your Ladyship give Little Highness a way out."

The Empress's voice was distant and distant, "Imperial bloodline, even if you die, you must die in the Palace."

"The Empress has already given up on Little Highness?" The old mama's eyes turned red, "Then I hope that the Empress will grant His Highness and this old servant to go together! Little Highness was watched by this old servant as he grew up, I truly cannot bear to see Your Highness being muddleheaded and humiliated."

The Empress frowned and her voice also sank, "Preposterous."

" The Imperial Family's bloodline cannot be lost among the people, but it can be bullied and insulted by this lowly servant. What kind of logic is this!" The old mama suddenly shed tears, "Every time I see Little Highness picking up balls for the palace maids, this old servant's heart... It's as if I've been gouged out by a knife! "

"Your Highness is the flesh that fell off your Ladyship's body. Other people don't feel heartache, but could it be that your Ladyship doesn't feel heartache as well?!"

These words were like a sharp blade that pierced through her chest. The coldness on the Empress's face finally broke and her eyes reddened." He's still so young. How could I bear to drag him into such a man-eating vortex? "

The mama was sad and tearful. "The man-eating vortex will not become man-eating just because Her Highness doesn't participate. If Her Highness is weaker, then he will be stronger. Your Ladyship, you are harming him! The mama was sad and tearful, The man-eating vortex will not become man-eating because Her Highness doesn't participate. If Her Highness is weaker, then he will be stronger. Your Ladyship, you are harming him!"

-

The old mama died.

Jian Xiuheng was taken to the Phoenix Perching Palace, and not long after that, he became the Crown Prince of the Dayong.

However, the Emperor still didn't like him, and the Emperor only liked that domineering elder sister.

He cried and asked the Empress, Why don't they like me?

Then, he heard the words that changed his life.

"If you want to be the Emperor, you can't be afraid of loneliness. Because in this world, the most lonely is the Emperor" The Empress said: "You are the only person in this country who truly knows what it feels like to be the Emperor And everyone else who knows what it feels like is an enemy "

"In this world, there are only two people you can trust. One is yourself, the other is your Shadow Guard "
