Chapter 129 Obsession in Ancient City 8
The Queen, who entered the Imperial Palace five years ago, was declared a concubine together with 28 new lucky beauties who just entered the Palace. Because the Queen's father was only a merchant, the Queen was only the lowest concubine when she entered the Palace. If it were not for what happened later, it was estimated that even the Queen got old and dead, she couldn’t be able to see the Emperor, let alone become a Queen.

After the Queen entered the Palace for two years, the former Queen became pregnant and gave birth to a son, but what was unexpected was that her son died within one month. At this time, the Emperor felt very upset and often was absorbed in drinking. And just after he got drunken one time, he went to the Queen's Sleeping Palace, and then something that should happen happened.

The queen was the daughter of a merchant, unlike any other concubine. Although she also accepted the education of female precepts and other instruction, she actually had a kind of indomitable pride, so the Queen didn’t like the other maids who would only comfort, but to inspire the Emperor to rise up, even do some abominable things that she said if the Emperor ignored the imperial business, she wouldn’t let the Emperor go into her Sleeping Palace.

But after all, the emperor was very wise, and gradually cheered up, so the Queen was also favored by the Emperor.

One day, the Queen accidentally found some drugs that could lead to infertility sent by the former Queen. You know, the Queen's family was the largest drug-maker in the capital.

The Queen was not the kind of person who would swallow insult and humiliation silently, so she told the Emperor directly and asked the Emperor to find out who was framing the former Queen, because she did not believe that the former Queen would do it.

The Emperor's secret investigation found that there was the same effect of medicine in the soup of not not only the concubines, but also even the Emperor, so it didn’t just aim at Imperial Harem. Then, it was found that the former Queen's child, who would be appointed prince, was also killed by others. Things were completely out of control, and even the Emperor could no longer control it.

However, during the investigation, the former Queen suddenly confessed, and gave a reason that made the Emperor very angry, and that was that she looked down up the Emperor and she also didn’t want the Emperor to have offspring. The Emperor was very angry and immediately abolished the Queen. Then the former Queen was imprisoned in Yongshou Palace by the Emperor. However, she went crazy and died of illness in Yongshou Palace in less than a month.

When the former Queen died, both the Emperor and the Queen knew that someone was trying to frame the former Queen, but there was no clue. The heir died and the wife was wrongly killed, the Emperor basically went crazy. In the case of finding no clue, unexpectedly, the Emperor went to ask God to ask divination.

At this time, strange things happened. The results of asking God's questions and the occasional clues pointed to one concubine after another, then the mad Emperor made massacre in the Imperial Harem.

Whether it was old people in the Prince House, or the 28 new concubines, in the end, there were only six people left, including both the Queen and Rani Xian.

After making a massacre, the Emperor was persuaded by the Queen to wake up gradually, but the feeling of being fooled made this thing become a thorn, inserting in the emperor's mind.

So the Emperor and the Queen had been looking for clues, but, unfortunately, nothing had been found as if there was nothing happened.

In this way, after another year, the queen suddenly contracted a strange illness. Under the check of the imperial doctor, the Queen was found to be poisoned by a someone. At this time, the Queen was also pregnant. The imperial doctor informed the risk that although the poison would not affect the child, once the Queen’s body became weak after give a birth to the child, the poison would take advantage of his weak point and enter her body, then the Queen was in danger.

Though the Emperor wanted to have a child, he could not bear that the only lover, who walked side by side in the whole Palace, would die. However, the Queen defied persuasion to give birth to the child.

Thanks to her son, The Emperor intended to appoint her Queen, but the emperor's decision was firmly opposed by all the officials and had to be shelved because the Queen was born in merchant family and the Rani Xian was also pregnant.

Shortly after the birth of the first prince and the second prince, rumors suddenly appeared in the palace that the concubine had an affair with Rani Xian, and that the second prince was not born of the emperor. The Emperor did not believe it either, but one of masters said that the emperor was destined to have only one son, so the emperor gradually became doubtful.

Rumors spread very quickly, not only in the palace, even in the market. Therefore, in order to verify, the Emperor made the blood dripping recognition. However, the blood of the second prince proved that he was born by the Emperor.

Then the question arose that where did the rumor come from? The rumor was bad for Rani Xian, and once the gossip was proved to be false, the biggest beneficiary, Queen, became the biggest suspect.

But no one knows that although the Emperor didn’t spend much time with the Queen every time, he even seldom went to her, all these are smoke bombs released by the Emperor in order to protect the Queen. Besides, That the emperor always came to other concubines was also the Queen's idea. One was to paralyze the murderer, and the other was for the Emperor to have more children.

So naturally, the Emperor believed in the Queen, and because of the rumors, the murderer behind the scenes gradually was revealed, and all the evidence pointed to Rani Xian. Only at that time, either the Emperor or the Queen dared not take any other actions, after all, the Emperor had killed many concubines.

There was no evidence to prove that the rumors were made by the empress, and the emperor could not leave the palace without a master for a day. Therefore, he let the Queen exercise the duty of acting as the Queen, on the one hand, she just replaced the Queen momentarily and the Queen was not really certain of the Queen. Second, the Emperor's son died of infancy, so even though the many ministers were against it, but after all, the Queen still became the acting Queen.

As the years passed, the two princes grew up. Just when the Emperor and the Queen thought nothing would happen, the second prince drowned in the Imperial Garden, and the night when the second son drowned, Rani Xian claimed she had dreamed of the second prince crying, saying that it was the Queen who pushed him down the pool of the Imperial Garden.

But Rani Xian didn’t know one point that since the rumor incident, although the emperor was not sure that Rani Xian the murderer, he still sent people to spy on her, and that was how to know a shocking thing that the second prince was killed by Rani Xian.

These things happened, and the Emperor naturally wanted to kill Rani Xian directly. However, her older brother was the orthodox general, so the Emperor couldn’t, in any case, plainly sentence the punishment to Rani Xian at this time.

The Queen also knew this. Therefore, when Rani Xian broke into the Queen's Sleeping Palace and cried, she was imprisoned in the name of purging the Queen's Palace. Then later, without Rani Xian’s knowing, the Queen searched her Sleeping Palace.

And then the Queen directly killed Rani Xian by a stick. As for that Rani Xian came to the emperor and cried for grievance, this was just the end of the first half of the whole thing.

Yes, the end of the first half of the whole thing. It was just the end of the first half, but this only showed a part of the evil intention of Rani Xian, and the other part was...
