Twin Brocade

Chapter 25 Two Hearts

but!

Empress Dowager Cao never expected that it was because of her entrustment that Fang Shuyu was sent to death!
She dared to swear to God that after marrying into the royal family, she cut off her past love.Asking Fang Shuyu to do things for King Qi was entirely out of her mother's selfishness, and she asked him to do things for her because of old feelings.

That's why she felt so guilty.

When Fang's family was convicted, she also argued with Emperor Yanping to prove that Fang Shuyu was not such a powerful person.Between mother and son, the most intense quarrel ever broke out.

Unexpectedly, half a year later, she learned that the Fang family had died tragically.The murderer behind this is his own emperor's son!
After some questioning, Empress Dowager Cao found out with great pain that she turned out to be such an unbearable woman in her son's mind.

Faced with her anger, Emperor Yanping remained unmoved, and said: "The son never thought it was the mother's fault. That's why he disposed of the Fang family for the mother."

"Don't worry, Empress Dowager, the son has already taken care of everything from the beginning to the end. It is absolutely impossible for people to suspect that Dao's mother came from behind."

Emperor Yanping looked calm, ever since he found out that his mother had an affair with Fang Shuyu, the image of his mother had collapsed in his heart.To the Empress Dowager Cao, it became even more difficult to be submissive.

Although he told himself countless times, the queen mother is definitely not that kind of person.But once the seeds of doubt are sown, they can't help but take root.

As long as he thinks that his mother might be unfaithful to his father, he can't wait to crush Fang Shuyu immediately.

Empress Dowager Cao vomited a mouthful of heartache, and endless regret flooded her like a tidal wave.Panting heavily, she looked at Emperor Yanping and said, "I really regret it, I shouldn't have used my old relationship to let him help you."

Emperor Yanping laughed twice, his gaze was full of coldness, and said indifferently: "The queen mother finally admitted it? But I want to ask the queen mother one thing, how do you know that I ordered someone to do it about the Fang family?"

"You put eyeliner by your son's side?"

"Are you complaining about Fang's family because you don't want to part with your old lover, or because you don't want to part with the power you hold in your hands?"

"Queen! You are already the most honorable woman in the world, why do you still want to exercise power?!"

Emperor Yanping forced each other step by step, and uttered a sentence of heart-breaking words, which shocked the empress dowager Cao's internal organs.

She held on to a corner of the high table, and her whole body was precarious.

She has survived so many difficult times since marrying into the royal family, and now looking back at the way she came, she is startled every step of the way.If you take one wrong step, you will end up in a state of eternal doom.

She was bestowed by the first emperor to marry the prince who later became Emperor Qinglong.

The purpose of this marriage is very simple, to consolidate the crown prince's power and position, because she is the most outstanding eldest daughter of the Cao family among the Dukes of the Four Kingdoms.

And the Cao family also needs a queen to consolidate the status of the Duke's Mansion and extend the blessings.

What a marriage!
It's a pity, but she never considered the feelings of her and the prince.

In order to marry her, the first emperor deposed the prince's first wife, Jiang Shi, and sent her to the Taimiao Temple to become a monk.

The prince had a very close relationship with Jiang, so he had no choice but to marry her.She clearly knew that all of this was not her fault, but should this be blamed on the late Emperor?

So, all the anger was vented on her head.

And why is Cao Huaying willing?
That handsome young man, when we get along with him, there is no pressure from the family, no need to follow the rules.She buried this secret in her heart, waiting for the day when he was in high school, when he was riding a white horse, she was wearing a red dress, and they were married.

The Cao family had already reached a consensus with the late emperor on this marriage.She was the last to know.

Cao Huaying fought, got angry, and went on a hunger strike.

But when her father found out about Fang Shuyu's existence and threatened her that if she didn't obey the arrangement, Fang Shuyu's family's career would be hindered, she finally gave in.

From then on, she swung her sword to cut off the thread of love, and buried all the past feelings.

After the two got married, the prince only had proper respect for her, but absolutely no affection for women.He even prefers to go to the side concubine's courtyard instead of her main courtyard.

If the two of them didn't need a son-in-law to strengthen this political marriage, he would definitely not have slept in her bed.

And all of this was exactly what she wanted.

The prince didn't want to get close to her, so she closed the door and licked her wounds alone in the dark.

However, when the crown prince ascended the throne and became Emperor Qinglong, she suddenly discovered that the imperial palace and the prince's mansion were two completely different places.

She had already missed the best time to develop a relationship with Emperor Qinglong. Even if she gave birth to a son and daughter, a queen with no name would still be walking on eggshells in the palace.

In order for her own eldest son, Wei Mingsheng, to ascend to the high position, she had to think hard, try every means, use all means to win over the power and grasp the power bit by bit.

This road is full of thorns and thorns, and she can only move forward.

In order to eradicate dissidents, her hands were also stained with the blood of innocent people.She couldn't count the number of times she woke up from a midnight nightmare.After waking up, she held on to her power even more firmly. Only power can give her a sense of security.

During these difficult days, the handsome young man in white was the only light in her heart.

but!

King Qi and the prince left behind by the Jiang family were fighting like a raging fire. When it was difficult to distinguish between the two, she personally destroyed the old love and dragged the young man in white into the vortex of fighting for the heir.

She has paid so much, and now she only gets a word of power? !

The past flashed through her mind, but she never had the chance to ask this question.

With a "poof", blood gushed out of her mouth, and she fell backwards, her eyes gradually turning black.

She was numb and unable to move, as if she had fallen into a bottomless abyss and kept falling towards that cold and deep place, with nowhere to focus.

In this darkness, only her heart beat, but two obsessions were constantly entangled.

One is saying:
I regret so much, I regret that I dragged him into this vortex, causing his family to be ruined!

This kindness, if there is an afterlife, I must repay it.

Another said:
I regret so much, I hate so much!Hate yourself for not giving up the power in your hands.It was because he was too naive, thinking that he was his own son, so he would not betray.

If I can do it all over again, I will definitely taste the taste of the pinnacle of power, and I will never live for my family, husband, or son!

All those who fail me, no matter who they are, will have to pay the price in blood.

The voice of the latter obsession became louder and louder, gradually overpowering the former one.But the previous voice always existed, even if it was surrounded by thick darkness, it always existed and never went out.

Slowly, in this darkness, a person's heartbeat gradually changed!The sound is getting louder and louder!
"Pump! Pump!"

Listen carefully to distinguish, these are two hearts, beating at exactly the same frequency.
