Chapter 1990
Not a Noble Consort 11
The Emperor and the future Empress did not attend Princess Huaining's wedding, but Liu Tong, Liu Qingya, and Nangong Yi went.
The three of them went to see a play.
Liu Dong taught the two of them makeup techniques.
Nangong Yi painted his face differently, and when he stood in front of Nangong Fan, Nangong Fan couldn't recognize him.
The day before the wedding, Nangong Yi secretly went to see the King of Southeast.
Nangong Yi still had some fatherly affection for his father, although that didn't stop him from scheming against the King of the Southeast.
How did Nangong Fan discover true love and her son?
It was Nangong Yi who had his subordinates leak it to Nangong Fan.
The fact that these three individuals were able to be found was thanks to the remnants of the previous dynasty.
The three kings of different surnames were actually secretly colluding with the remnants of the previous dynasty.
Nangong Yi felt deeply saddened by the current state of the Southeast King.
Nangong Yi revealed his true face without makeup, and the King of the Southeast exclaimed in surprise, "You're not dead!"
Nangong Yi: "I met a kind person and was rescued."
The King of Southeast was silent for a moment before speaking: "There is a hidden compartment under the cabinet in my study, where there is a token, which is the token of the Hidden Dragon Guard."
Nangong Yi: "Father..."
King of the Southeast: "You may leave."
Nangong Fan knelt down and kowtowed three times to the King of the Southeast, then quietly left, just as quietly as he had appeared, without alerting a third person.
The King of the Southeast chuckled softly as he listened to the commotion coming from the front yard, then closed his eyes and never woke up again.
Inside the bridal chamber, Nangong Fan lifted the bridal veil from Princess Huaining's head.
Princess Huaining's meticulously painted face was revealed, with exquisite features and a captivating beauty.
Nangong Fan couldn't help but be attracted by the beauty before him, but thinking of his beloved, he suppressed his desires.
Nangong Fan: "You should get some rest..."
He did not want to consummate his marriage with Princess Huaining.
Even if he wanted a woman, he wouldn't choose Princess Huaining.
"stop!"
Princess Huaining asked angrily, "Where are you going?"
Nangong Fan: "I need to go and take care of my father..."
Princess Huaining: "Excuses. You just don't want to consummate your marriage with me! Nangong Fan, do you even consider me your wife?"
Nangong Fan: "You are my wife."
But in his heart, Duanmu Ying was his wife.
Princess Huaining picked up the wine pot, poured two cups of wine, and handed one of them to Nangong Fan.
"You can leave, but you must drink the nuptial wine first."
Nangong Fan took the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
He put down his wine glass and was about to leave when suddenly a surge of heat rose from his lower abdomen and swept over his entire body at an extremely fast speed.
His mind became hazy, and when he looked at the person in front of him, he realized it was Duanmu Ying.
“Ah Ying…”
Nangong Fan hugged the bride.
Princess Huaining gritted her teeth in hatred, but still opened her arms to embrace the groom and led him to the bed...
The next day, Nangong Fan woke up and was furious to see the woman beside him.
He got up, put on his clothes, and left the bridal chamber.
Princess Huaining opened her eyes, her gaze dark and unfathomable.
She touched her stomach; she must be pregnant.
Her child, her child, she failed to protect him, causing him to leave this world at such a young age.
It's all her good brother's and Duanmu Ying's fault. If it weren't for their involvement, how could her child have been kidnapped by the remnants of the previous dynasty?
The most hateful thing is Nangong Fan!
This was his child, yet he abandoned the child to save Duanmu Ying, resulting in Yu'er's death. To avenge her child, she poisoned Duanmu Ying.
In order to save Duanmu Ying, the two men donated her blood to her.
She still remembers the feeling of blood leaving her body.
Fortunately, God gave her a second chance.
This time, she will protect her child well.
As for the child's father...
If you're not fit to be a father, then don't be one.
Once the child is born, she will send her to hell.
However, she will help him send his beloved down with him, so that they can die together in the same grave.
As soon as Nangong Fan left the bridal chamber, he received a report from a servant: the King of Southeast had passed away last night.
Nangong Fan was filled with complex emotions. He sighed and said, "Prepare for the worst!"
After the grand funeral, Nangong Fan succeeded to the throne as the new King of the Southeast.
Princess Huaining was diagnosed with a pregnancy of more than one month.
Nangong Fan frowned. He didn't want a child with royal blood, but the existence of such a child could lull the emperor and his court officials into a false sense of security...
Nangong Fan sent Princess Huaining a lot of tonics so that she could rest assured and focus on her pregnancy.
Princess Huaining looked at the tonics and sneered.
In her past life, she knew nothing and thought that Nangong Fan valued the child very much, so she happily ate all the tonics.
This resulted in the fetus being too large, making childbirth extremely difficult and nearly causing the death of both mother and child.
Thanks to the skilled female physician Liu Qingya sent her, who used scissors to cut open the passage, the child was safely born.
Although Liu Qingya gave her the female healer to please Dongfang Zeng, it still saved the lives of the mother and son!
Liu Qingya truly loved her emperor brother, but unfortunately, her fate was tragic.
Her emperor brother, like Nangong Fan, only loved Duanmu Ying, treating her like a treasure and other women like trash.
Liu Qingya went mad as a result and took action against Duanmu Ying while she was pregnant, causing Duanmu Ying to miscarry.
Dongfang Zeng showed no respect to the Liu family and banished Liu Qingya to the cold palace.
Later, Liu Qingya hanged herself in the cold palace, only to receive the evaluation of "serves her right" from Dongfang Zeng and Duanmu Ying.
How sad!
Princess Huaining felt great sympathy for Liu Qingya, realizing that they were in the same boat.
But she wouldn't help Liu Qingya. She and Liu Qingya weren't close friends, and there was no need for her to expose herself for Liu Qingya's sake.
In the capital, Duanmu Ying and Dongfang Zeng's wedding was held.
Dongfang Zeng married Duanmu Ying as his empress in a grand wedding. During the ceremony, he promised Duanmu Ying that he would be with her for life.
Duanmu Ying was deeply moved, but the Empress Dowager was extremely displeased.
The Empress Dowager has not given up on the idea of bringing her niece into the palace.
Although my niece can't be empress, she can learn from her and become empress dowager!
As a result, the emperor made a promise in front of so many people that he would only have the empress, thus blocking Liu Qingya's way into the palace.
How could the Empress Dowager not be furious?
Other ministers who sent their daughters to the palace to gain wealth and status were also unhappy.
They dared not be angry with the emperor, and directed their anger towards Duanmu Ying and the Duanmu family.
Duanmu Zhuo found himself in a very difficult position in the court, as those who originally belonged to his side also sided with Liu Huai.
Duanmu Zhuo knew why, but he couldn't stop it.
The emperor had a good relationship with his daughter, so he couldn't very well ruin it by having his daughter find a concubine for her husband, could he?
Duanmu Zhuo could only do his best to maintain his power in the court, and he became exhausted and his health began to deteriorate.
But he's too busy, too busy to pay attention to his health.
By the time he noticed, it was too late.
Duanmu Zhuo fainted during court, and the emperor immediately dispatched the imperial physician to treat him. (End of Chapter)
