Chapter 259 Buried With the Child
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
The emperor and Zhao Panpan, who had been tricked by the empress, were still in a state of madness.
“You’re my father, you’re my father…” Zhao Panpan lowered her voice and cried. This melodramatic reality was like a folk story!
When the Emperor heard the word ‘father’, he had goosebumps all over his body.
“Crack…” A bolt of lightning flashed outside, and it began to rain heavily. The Emperor was so frightened that he shivered and found a pillar to lean against. If his legs went soft, there was still a place to lean on.
“What should I do? Are you my husband or my father? Is my son your son or your grandson?” Zhao Panpan’s face was pale and she seemed to be extremely afraid. She trembled as she shrank back into the bed. This pair of fake father and daughter, the real couple, kept feeling like they were going to be struck to death by lightning.
The emperor’s face was ashen. At this moment, he even wanted to die.
“Zhao Panpan!” The emperor’s face darkened as he looked at Zhao Panpan. He felt extremely guilty towards her. Zhao Panpan looked at the child and lowered her eyes, “It was Xiao Meili who harmed me. It was her and the Zhao family’s fault, it was her and the Zhao family’s fault! They’re the ones who let me down, I want them to die with me! I want them to be buried with my prince! They ruined my life, they ruined my life! Emperor, you must seek justice for us! Seek justice for us!”
Zhao Panpan cried and shouted. She knelt on the ground with the child in her arms, “It doesn’t matter if you’re my father or my husband. Xiao Meili is the cause of all this. Everything she has done is enough to exterminate nine generations of her family. Only by doing so can I calm the anger of my son and I!” She knelt on the ground and kowtowed. She was determined to make the Zhao family pay the price and kill all their relatives! She did not even care about Zhao Hongwei, who had been worried about her before.
“So what if Zhao Ruifeng is guarding the border? This matter has already shamed the imperial family. If it gets out…” Zhao Panpan’s face was pale as she looked at the emperor, “Then you can’t be the emperor anymore!”
The emperor’s expression changed when he heard this.
The entire Zhao family had been locked up in prison. In the middle of the night, the imperial guards suddenly surrounded the entire Zhao Manor, and all the maids and servants were captured and imprisoned.
That night, countless officials knelt outside the palace, begging the emperor to take back the order, but the emperor refused to see them.
“Your Majesty, General Zhao has been guarding the border for many years and is Your Majesty’s most trusted and favored official. Now that the war in the North is imminent, I beg Your Majesty to reconsider!” Grand Tutor Xue kneeled outside the hall in the rain, his white hair all over his head, a group of officials following behind him.
“Your Majesty, what crime has the Zhao family committed that implicated their entire family?” The officials were very confused. If they locked up the Zhao family at this time, that would make General Zhao, who was far away at the border, uneasy. Moreover, Zhao Ruifeng had a large number of troops in his hands. What if he could not think things through and rebelled?
The emperor remained silent. Even though all the officials had seen that the crown prince and the emperor’s bloodline did not match, they had only guessed that the empress had made the emperor a cuckold. They all thought that Zhao Hongwei was extremely daring to seduce the empress. The emperor would never dare to say that the empress was not having an affair with Zhao Hongwei. Instead, she had swapped the child of the Zhao family with the child of the royal family. After that, his little princess had become his concubine.
“Your Majesty, please let everyone go back. It’s not worth it to get drenched and catch a cold. The Zhao family has committed a great crime of rebellion, and they deserve to be killed.” The young eunuch walked out and sighed as he looked at the courtiers kneeling outside the hall.
Grand Tutor Xue’s body swayed, and the ministers behind him hurriedly supported him. “Your Majesty, I’ve never asked you for anything in my life. I only have one grandson in my life, and my daughter is not blessed enough, so she meet a scumbag. I only hope that Your Majesty can spare my granddaughter-in-law and granddaughter!” Grand Tutor Xue’s old tears streaked down his face. After so many years, his granddaughter Zhao Yingying had finally opened her mouth to plead with him!
All of the officials knew that Grand Tutor Xue’s first daughter, Xue Cen, had been let down by Zhao Hongwei and had been angered to death by Xiao Meili. They could not bear to see him crying in the rain at such an old age.
“Grand Tutor Xue, you should return first. His Majesty does not want to see anyone today. The entire Zhao family will be executed in three days. Grand Tutor Xue, please do not make things difficult for His Majesty.” The eunuch understood the emperor’s meaning and stopped Grand Tutor Xue from entering. Many people knelt outside the palace. From time to time, two people would join in, but the emperor had no intention of being soft-hearted.
