Chapter 802 Emperor Dowager (3)
“Bullsh*t! I don’t even know about the rotting bone powder!” The Emperor Dowager scoffed .
“How dare you to frame my mother, rabble! Mother only loves and cares for father . She brings food here every day . How dare you frame her!” The little Emperor shouted in
anger .
Ye Qingtang did not bother with her quibble . She asked the Blood Moon Elder to bring a plant over .
Ye Qingtang then poured the porridge slowly onto the plant .
However, nothing happened to that charming flower .
A trace of sarcasm flashed across the Emperor Dowager’s eyes .
“What else do you have to say?” She sneered .
“Wait . ” Ye Qingtang put down the empty bowl and then took a glass of sake .
A panic look flashed across the Emperor Dowager’s eyes suddenly .
“I heard that the Grand Emperor likes to drink alcohol, especially the Qingyu sake from the Northern part’s tribute, and that he takes a glass every day after his meal… Do you still have this habit in recent years?” Ye Qingtang looked towards the Grand Emperor and asked .
The Grand Emperor nodded .
The Qingyu sake was not what he loved but what she loved .
Now, the beauty was long gone…
He could only recall some moments when he took the Qingyu sake .
“It’s always been like that . ” He responded .
Ye Qingtang lifted her hand and poured the Qingyu sake onto the plant .
The moment when sake landed on the petals, the bright flower suddenly lost its color and wilted in front of everyone .
“This…” A trace of astonishment flashed across the Grand Emperor’s eyes, Though the Emperor Dowager was not his true love, he did not mistreat her after marrying her for more than a decade . He did not expect that…
She would be the one who poisoned him!
The Emperor Dowager closed her eyes slowly and sighed when she saw that the flower wilted .
“The rotting bone powder is a strong poison, but it hides in the body . It can only be triggered when you take the guiding drug along . Thus… even if someone suspects something, as long as one did not mix these two, one would never find out about the poison inside . ” Ye Qingtang held the empty glass and looked at the Emperor Dowager, whose face was pure .
“Emperor Dowager… why do you want to poison me . ” Pain filled the Grand Emperor’s eyes . Though he did not love her, he treated her like his little sister all the time .
The Emperor Dowager opened her eyes and scoffed .
“Poison you? Are you the victim or I am the one!”
“Mother…” The little Emperor was shocked . He could never imagine that his most respected father would be poisoned by his own mother .
The Emperor Dowager did not hide anything since the truth was revealed .
“When you were enthroned and married with me back then, I thought that you would treat me with your true love . However… after you met that woman, you lost your soul, and your eyes could not contain anyone else . My most beautiful years were wasted in your hands… I am the victim! You confined me in this cold palace for my entire life . ”
The Grand Emperor stared at the Emperor Dowager with grievances .
“I asked about your opinion previously . If you were not willing to be my wife, I would send you out of the palace till you found a suitable one… It was you… who was not willing to leave…”
“Leave? Why? I am the mother of the country! The Empress of the Nine Nights Dynasty! Why would I leave the palace!” The Emperor Dowager scoffed .
“You…” The Grand Emperor stared at the Emperor Dowager in front of her . He remembered that when she just entered the palace, he treated her as his little sister as she was still young . However…
The little sister had such ambitions all the time .
