Chapter 320 Do You Know - Xiao Qinshi 47

Interesting! But unfortunately it was not enough. Qin Wanrong did not like deception. She always liked "fair trade". Liang Duzhi wanted too much and she could not give it to him.

"Demons have no love."

I'm sorry, Liang Duzhi, although your "love" surprises me, it still can't impress me. It's too unequal.

Liang Duzhi understood. He was sad but not as sad as Qin Wanrong thought. "Then can I always stay by your side in the future? Just me, no one else."

Qin Wanrong nodded and gave a clear answer, and Liang Duzhi left with satisfaction.

Qin Wanrong didn't understand, so she yawned and thought, feeling sleepy, so she decided to go to sleep. These things were not worth worrying about.

Liang Duzhi, who left Ronghua Palace, suddenly became open-minded. Even though Qin Wanrong said that she was a monster, Liang Duzhi thought she was a fairy. After confirming Qin Wanrong's identity, he truly realized that no one in this world could get the love of a fairy, but he could stay with the fairy forever.

Liang Duzhi has untied the knot in his heart and is no longer worried about gains and losses. Qin Wanrong's life has become more relaxed because Zhao Qi went to Zhaoren Hall. Qin Wanrong handed over the palace affairs to the clerk to help take care of them. With surveillance, there is nothing in the harem that Qin Wanrong doesn't know, and naturally there will be no major issues that cannot be handled.

Another three years passed, and in Zhaoren Hall, the relationship between Zhao Qi and the emperor grew deeper and deeper. The emperor began to intentionally or unintentionally instill in Zhao Qi some ideas like "he is the heir of the Zhao family, and the future emperor must be on guard against foreign relatives."

Liang Duzhi saw this several times and couldn't help but worry about Qin Wanrong. He told Qin Wanrong about this. Qin Wanrong's eyes sank. Although she had thought about it a long time ago, she still felt a little unhappy when this day really came.

Qin Wanrong planned to give Zhao Qi a chance to see if this man was worthy of her. Zhao Qi was now eight years old. In ancient times, he would have understood what he should have understood long ago.

On this day, Zhao Qi came to pay his respects to Qin Wanrong. Qin Wanrong specially invited him to have dinner with her. During the meal, she tentatively asked about the emperor's teachings to Zhao Qi. During the conversation, Qin Wanrong corrected some of Zhao Qi's remarks. Zhao Qi was brainwashed by the emperor and believed that Qin Wanrong was able to hold a high position because of him. He also said that Qin Wanrong, her biological mother, should not interfere in his affairs.

"You only became the imperial concubine because you gave birth to this prince. Without this prince, you are nothing. What qualifications do you have to point fingers at this prince?"

Qin Wanrong admitted that she had expectations, but now that her expectations were shattered, she was completely relieved. Gu Tingwei, who was born to Xiao Qin in her previous life, was like this, and so was Zhao Qi, who was born in this life. It turned out that Xiao Qin's genes were not very good.

Now that this is confirmed, there is no need to worry about it. The power of a queen dowager is still not enough. How can being a queen dowager be as enjoyable as being an empress?

From that day on, Qin Wanrong completely lost her feelings for Zhao Qi, and all the protection she had given Zhao Qi was taken back. Not only that, Qin Wanrong no longer cared about Zhao Qi at all, and refused to care about her and would not see her if she could.

At first Zhao Qi didn't feel anything, but gradually he began to feel that some things were not as comfortable as before. What he ate, drank and used were no longer what he liked. Everything was based on the official's preferences, and he was no longer taken into consideration.

The imperial concubine was too busy to accompany him all the time. All the people who were familiar with Zhao Qi were removed by Qin Wanrong. He had to adapt to everything by himself. He was not stupid. He understood that it was because he hurt his mother's heart and his mother didn't care about him. He felt a little regretful, but he couldn't bring himself to apologize to Qin Wanrong. Zhao Qi thought about going to the imperial concubine to explain the situation.

But he happened to see the deep love between the emperor and the second princess. At this time, Zhao Qi suddenly realized that his father was not his father alone, but his mother was his mother alone.

He regretted it and wanted to apologize to Qin Wanrong, but Qin Wanrong had closed the palace on the pretext of illness, so Zhao Qi could not enter. He went to the emperor to explain the situation, but the emperor became furious and accused him of being unfilial!

Zhao Qi was dumbfounded. Didn't the government teach him all this? Why were they saying he was wrong now?

Because of what Zhao Qi said to Qin Wanrong, the emperor was afraid that one day Zhao Qi would do the same to him, so he began to be wary of Zhao Qi. Not only did he no longer care for him as before, he also made him live alone in the prince's residence on the grounds that he had grown up.

This gave the unwilling royal family an opportunity, and Zhao Qi fell ill not long after. The emperor was anxious, but thought that Zhao Qi was depressed because of his reprimand. He felt that Zhao Qi had a bad character even more. If he was not the only son, the emperor would have wanted to give up on him.

Zhao Qi gradually became seriously ill under the disappointed eyes of the emperor. Finally, Qin Wanrong was afraid that he was really killed, so she stepped in and exposed the royal family's tricks. Zhao Qi was detoxified and finally recovered, but his body was still damaged by the poison and was no longer as healthy as before.

Zhao Qi learned the truth and waited for the emperor to help him punish those members of the royal family. However, the emperor cared more and more about his reputation as he grew older, and in the end he only gave them a light punishment or a severe warning.

Zhao Qi was very disappointed with the Emperor. After this incident, he finally realized that the reason why he could live so freely in the past was not because of the Emperor, but because of his biological mother Qin Wanrong who carefully protected him behind the scenes. Even when he almost died this time, the Emperor still didn't notice anything. If it weren't for his mother's intervention, he would have been killed long ago.

Zhao Qi went to ask to see Qin Wanrong, but Qin Wanrong refused to see him and only said: "From now on, the relationship between mother and son is severed!"

Later, as Zhao Qi grew older, his cognition became more and more complete. He finally realized that he had completely lost his mother. He suppressed his desire for maternal love in his heart, fantasizing that he would compensate his mother after he ascended the throne.

The emperor's health had always been poor. As time passed, he finally fell ill when Zhao Qi was sixteen years old. This time, the imperial doctors were helpless. Perhaps realizing that he was going to die, in order to make Zhao Qi more legitimate, the emperor issued an edict to enthrone Qin Wanrong as queen, and died half a month later.

Zhao Qi officially ascended the throne and Qin Wanrong was named empress dowager. Without waiting for Zhao Qi to compensate her, Qin Wanrong directly stated that she wanted to go to Hanshan Temple to worship Buddha, and took Liang Duzhi, the clerk, Nanny Xing and others with her.

Zhao Qi always thought that he would be able to reconcile with his mother after he succeeded to the throne, but he didn't expect Qin Wanrong to have such a hot temper that she would just throw away a broken thing.

He began to think of ways to keep Qin Wanrong, and wrote imperial edicts to reward the Dongchang Marquis Mansion and came to Ronghua Palace to please Qin Wanrong. Qin Wanrong carefully looked at the sixteen-year-old young official in front of her, glanced at the contents of the imperial edict, and sneered.

"Your Majesty, please do whatever you want. As long as you don't target me, I am not worthy of you."

"Clerk, send His Majesty off!"

After saying this, Qin Wanrong got up and left. The clerk had long since become a nanny. She always followed her young lady's wishes, so she was not afraid even if the person in front of her was an official.

In the end, Nanny Xing couldn't bear it anymore and offered to send Zhao Qi off on behalf of the clerk. Zhao Qi was raised by Nanny Xing when he was a child and he still had feelings for her.

He couldn't help but ask Aunt Xing what Qin Wanrong meant. Aunt Xing sighed and looked at Zhao Qi seriously. His face looked very much like the official's, and his personality was just as selfish and cold as the official's. He only cared about himself and never thought about getting to know his young lady's biological mother.

But after all, she was the one who raised her since she was a child, so Nanny Xing finally explained to Zhao Qi the matter of Qin Wanrong and the Dongchang Marquis Mansion.
