Chapter 729
The old eunuch looked at the emperor and didn't dare to speak. He was silent for a while, and the emperor suddenly said, "I'm going to see Wan'er."

The emperor stood up and walked outside.

The old eunuch hurriedly followed and followed the emperor towards the palace.

Everyone thought that the emperor was going to bed and had to wait for the emperor to change clothes, but was driven away by the old eunuch. No one knew why, but the experienced old man was very sensible. At this time of the year, the emperor does not need anyone to wait on him. Let the old eunuch serve alone.

After entering the bedroom, the old eunuch closed the door, and when he walked in, he saw the emperor standing in a daze in front of a landscape painting.

The old eunuch stood behind him, not daring to vent his breath.

On the roof, two people were lying on their stomachs, lifted half of the tiles, and looked inside.

The emperor was silent for a while, approaching the landscape painting, he didn't know what mechanism was touched, and saw a crack in the landscape painting, revealing a passage that could allow a person to pass through.

The emperor went in, followed by the old eunuch, and the door was closed behind him.

After walking a dark road, after a quarter of an hour, it finally became bright.

It was an empty place with an ice coffin in the middle, and a person was lying in it.

The emperor walked over and looked at the person lying in the ice coffin. She closed her eyes tightly, as if she was in a deep sleep.

Looking at the sleeping face, the emperor sighed. He reached out and touched the ice coffin, and said with a smile, "Wan'er, I'm here to see you."

The sleeping person in the ice coffin closed his eyes tightly and said nothing.

The emperor leaned down slightly, looked at the face, was silent for a while, and said again: "Wan'er, before you know it, more than 20 years have passed. I am old, but you are still so young."

He was talking to himself, with a smile on his mouth, and said: "Your son has grown up too, and he is different now, but he is just as stupid as you. If you were here, I'm afraid You're going to be pissed off."

The emperor laughed twice, touched the ice coffin with his hands, with infinite love in his eyes, he sighed, and said: "Wan'er, it's been more than 20 years, have you ever regretted it? Didn't choose me?"

After a pause, the emperor smiled again: "You will never regret it. When I asked you if you would like to come to my side, you refused. You would rather die than follow me."

The emperor's face was a little ugly, he gritted his teeth, stared at the person in the ice coffin, his eyes became a little colder, and said: "You are so cruel, I have done so much for you, and you didn't even notice it. What's so good about big brother, it's just that he knows a little more rhetoric than me, but you fell into it headlong, I'm so unwilling."

His fists tightened slightly, looking at Wan'er's face, she still had her eyes closed, as if she couldn't hear.

The emperor sighed, looked at the sleeping man, laughed, and said: "But it's okay, you owe me what I owe, and I asked your son to return it to me. Your son looks so much like you. It was carved out of the same mold, no matter how you hurt me back then, I will repay you five times and ten times from him."

The people in the ice coffin couldn't speak, the emperor was talking to himself, and the emperor laughed twice, with the sternness in his eyes showing.

There was a knocking sound in the hall, and people could not help but feel a little empty after hearing it.

The queen knelt in front of the Buddha statue, knocked on the wooden fish, and after reading the Buddhist scriptures, she asked the woman standing beside her, "Isn't today the [-]th of June?"

The mother-in-law nodded and said, "Yes, empress."

The queen put down the wooden fish in her hand, sighed, and said, "The emperor went to see her again."

The mother-in-law looked at the queen, she closed her eyes slightly, she seemed to be unhappy, but she tried her best to suppress it, the mother-in-law was very unhappy, and said: "This emperor is really, they are all dead for so many years. I've been remembering it all the time, for such a good person as the Empress, it's really irritating for him to act as if he can't see her."

The Empress only laughed lightly when she heard this, and said: "Even without her, the Emperor would not have looked at me more."

"How could it be, the empress's empress has a heart of blue, and the emperor doesn't cherish it. It's because the emperor doesn't have that kind of blessing." Seeing the empress' self-denial, the mother-in-law hurriedly persuaded her.

The queen was still smiling, she looked up at the mother-in-law, and said: "You have said this for more than 20 years, even so, the emperor has never looked at me again."

The mother-in-law was speechless, looking at the queen, she could only sigh, and said: "Your Majesty has really suffered all these years, but the emperor doesn't take you seriously at all, it's really infuriating."

The queen gave a wry smile, she looked up at the Buddha statue in front of her, and said: "There is no bodhi tree, where can the dust be gathered? Back then, it was my wishful thinking and insisting on marrying him, which led to today's bitter fruit."

She sighed, closed her eyes, and said no more, as if she had resigned herself to her fate.

The mother-in-law saw this, frowned, and said: "Mother, this old slave knows that you have accepted your fate, but even if you don't think about yourself, you still have to think about the prince and the thirteen princes. The emperor doesn't want to see them at all. You Regardless, once the emperor dies, the life of the crown prince and the thirteen princes will not be easy."

The queen opened her eyes, and the warmth in her eyes dissipated a bit. She frowned and said, "The crown prince is the crown prince. If the emperor dies, the crown prince will be able to ascend the throne. How can you say that life is not easy?"

The mother-in-law said this, looked at the queen and sighed and said: "Your Majesty, although the crown prince was the crown prince, the emperor was not the crown prince back then, so he sat on the throne anyway. I heard that the queen mother seems to be very close to the tenth prince. I am worried that the Empress Dowager will join forces with the Tenth Prince."

Hearing this, the queen's eyes turned cold, she frowned and said, "Really?"

The mother-in-law thanked her and said: "The queen mother has always had a problem with you, the queen mother, and this old slave is worried that the queen mother will stab you behind the scenes."

The Buddhist beads in the queen's hand were clenched instantly, she frowned, and said: "The emperor is not the queen mother's own, the two of them have a rift, if the queen mother joins hands with the ten princes, it would not be surprising, but the emperor doesn't seem to have any reaction, could it be default."

The mother-in-law said this and looked at the queen. She frowned and was thinking about something. The mother-in-law said again: "Although the prince is honest, he can't say a word in front of the emperor. Madam, if you don't work hard, the old slave is worried that the throne will not be passed on." Go to the prince."

Such outrageous things were said, but the queen was not angry. In her heart, she seemed to have acquiesced in what the mother-in-law said.
