Chapter 254 Unexpected Merit
Situ Yuan complained in his heart, but unfortunately Xie Ying couldn't hear him.
Otherwise she would definitely roll her eyes at him and then try to defend herself.
What happened to her lighting the gunpowder?
Those gunpowder were all made by Situ Yuan himself.
Moreover, she burned the warehouse and no living people, and saved many people.
When the fire broke out in Duke Cheng'en's mansion, many people were poisoned. If she hadn't asked Xiangxiang to wake them up, how could these people have escaped and only suffered injuries?
Most likely you will be trapped in the fire and burned to death!
Xie Ying didn't know what Situ Yuan was thinking, so she was still happily watching the lively atmosphere of the emperor's family.
Unexpectedly, Yang Tao cried for a while, then suddenly ran to the next room, picked her up and rushed out!
Xie Ying was startled by him and quickly reached out to grab his clothes, fearing that the boy would suddenly lose his grip and throw her to the ground.
Situ Yuan was also quite surprised. Seeing Yang Tao rushing out with Xie Ying in his arms, tears in his eyes, he quickly chased after him and carefully protected him.
The palace servants also hurriedly chased after him.
Yang Tao carried Xie Ying to the bedroom of Concubine Jiang next door, which scared Emperor Taihe.
Seeing him suddenly bring Xie Ying with him, Emperor Taihe asked in surprise: "Tao'er, why did you bring Yingying here? Be careful not to fall!"
Yang Tao, tearful, carried Xie Ying to Concubine Jiang's bedside and laid her on the bed. He then said, "Yingying is your lucky star. With her here, Mother will definitely wake up."
Xie Ying's eyes widened in surprise: [So I'm just sitting in the room, and the power comes from the sky? You have a bright future!]
She looked at Yang Tao with tears in his eyes, then looked at Emperor Taihe, and felt secretly happy.
Yang Tao's brilliant move clearly gave her some credit!
After the medicine doctor "detoxified" Concubine Jiang, he left a message saying that if Concubine Jiang could not wake up before dark, she would never wake up again.
Now that Yang Tao has brought her here, when Concubine Jiang "wakes up", won't it all be the credit of this "little lucky star"?
After all, Concubine Jiang and Emperor Taihe deliberately staged such a self-torture trick to capture Yang Tao's heart, so Concubine Jiang's "poisoning" this time must have been extremely dangerous.
In the end, thanks to the medicine doctor and her "little lucky star", she was able to wake up and survive.
If this isn’t a free gift, what is?
When Concubine Jiang wakes up, she will become a small hero, and Emperor Taihe will definitely reward her handsomely and complete this drama.
How could Xie Ying not be excited?
She was so happy that she couldn't suppress the smile on her face and laughed so happily.
As expected, when Emperor Taihe saw her smile, he comforted Yang Tao: "Tao'er is right. Yingying is a lucky star. With her around, she will definitely make your mother better. Look how happy she is smiling."
When Xie Ying heard this, she smiled even more happily.
Situ Yuan who followed: "..."
But Xie Ying was not just foolishly laughing. She took advantage of the time when she was close to Concubine Jiang to quietly check Concubine Jiang's body.
When she sensed the aura of Concubine Jiang and Yang Tao earlier, she discovered that there was something wrong with her body, but at that time she was so busy confirming their mother-son relationship that she didn't have time to check anything else.
After careful investigation, she discovered the problem with Concubine Jiang.
Not only was Concubine Jiang poisoned, she also suffered injuries during childbirth. If the damage to her body could not be repaired, even if the Godly Medicine Doctor detoxified her, she would not be able to get pregnant again.
However, it would be useless even if she recovered alone, as Emperor Taihe was also unable to have children.
This should be Empress Chen's plan. This woman probably went crazy when she learned about her true life experience, so she hated everyone.
When Concubine Jiang gave birth to the prince, Emperor Taihe was very pleased and took the opportunity to promote her to Concubine.
If the child had not died and was named the crown prince, Concubine Jiang would have gained status as a mother because of her son, and Empress Chen might not have been able to hold on to the throne of empress.
It just so happened that she was also full of hatred for the Chen family, so she got rid of the child and poisoned Emperor Taihe, making him infertile.
In this way, no matter how many plans the Chen family has, they dare not use the same trick again and produce a new bastard.
Yang Tao became the only prince in the palace, but he was labeled as a relative of the dead since he was a child, and was not liked by Queen Mother Zhao, Emperor Taihe and Concubine Jiang.
After Emperor Taihe and Concubine Jiang died, Yang Tao succeeded to the throne and Empress Chen was promoted to Empress Dowager.
She is the only winner in this calculation.
In the original book, although Yang Tao's throne was robbed and the stud who traveled through time became the new emperor, he still respected the Queen Mother Chen at the time, and this woman's status was still respected.
However, Li Jieyushi, the tool, was killed early by Concubine Jiang, and became a thorn deeply in Yang Tao's heart, making him hate Concubine Jiang and Emperor Taihe to the core.
The original book did not write much about Concubine Li. When Xie Ying read the book, she just thought that she was a poor woman who was not favored in the harem.
Looking back now, Concubine Li’s death in the book was probably the work of Empress Chen.
At present, Yang Tao is still young, and in order not to attract the attention of Concubine Jiang, Empress Chen naturally cannot get rid of Concubine Li.
Otherwise, once Concubine Li died, Yang Tao, as the only little prince in the palace, would have to find a foster mother for him.
In the harem, only Empress Chen and Concubine Jiang were qualified to raise him.
If Empress Chen wants to continue to maintain her image, she cannot compete with Concubine Jiang for the custody of Yang Tao. However, if Concubine Jiang really adopts Yang Tao, over time, Yang Tao will inevitably be won over by Concubine Jiang, which will be disadvantageous to Empress Chen.
Therefore, Concubine Li had to stay alive, raise Yang Tao, and constantly speak well of Empress Chen in front of him so that he would be on Empress Chen's side.
Wait until Yang Tao grows up enough, then get rid of Concubine Li, frame Concubine Jiang, and completely squeeze out her last bit of usefulness.
In this way, Empress Chen did not have to raise the children herself, but she could still sit firmly on the throne of empress, be promoted to empress dowager, and become the biggest winner.
She appeared to be noncompetitive, virtuous and generous, yet even Concubine Jiang robbed her of all her love and glory, causing countless people to feel unfair for her.
In fact, she had planned everything and sat on the queen's throne with a smile, watching coldly as Concubine Jiang and Yang Tao, mother and son, became enemies.
Thinking of this, Xie Ying couldn't help but glance at Situ Yuan, muttering inwardly, "You still call me the Sixth Child? Queen Chen is far more vicious than me! Compared to her methods, I'm simply a kind and honest little cutie!"
Situ Yuan was speechless: Empress Chen is vicious, what does it have to do with you being the sixth prince?
But thinking of Empress Chen's methods, he frowned in disdain: That woman is indeed too cruel. But now that her deeds have been exposed, she will not have a good end.
Situ Yuan had no sympathy for Queen Chen. No matter how much resentment and hatred that woman had, she should not hurt innocent people.
Yang Tao and the child back then are the most innocent.
He glanced at Yang Tao silently, and seeing that he was looking at the "sleeping" Concubine Jiang with a worried look on his face, he suddenly felt that the child was even more pitiful.
Fortunately, when the sun set, Concubine Jiang finally woke up.
