Chapter 407: Treason

Yufu cried, her voice laced with desperation. She could feel something was terribly wrong."Princess, please calm down. This Palace would rather die than harm you!" Qian Yi'an said as he tore off a str...“As for Empress Dowager’s words, my name is Xiao Yuge. They all call me Ge’er.” She had been here for over a month, and only now did the Empress Dowager remember her name. Ah, she truly is a person of high status who forgets things easily. Oh, no, it’s not that serious yet, it’s just a name after all.

"This Empress has heard many things about you and Prince Xuan, Song'er. This Empress wants to ask you, are your feelings for Prince Xuan genuine" The Empress Dowager stared straight at Xiao Yuge, the previous generation's palace intrigue queen, was about to observe her words and expressions.

"Of course." Xiao Yu Ge didn't want to cause any trouble, nor did she want to anger the Empress Dowager. After all, the Empress Dowager's health couldn't withstand any excitement.

“In your position, you are not worthy of Xu'er at all. However, Xu'er loves you deeply. This empress doesn't want to say much, but you are a smart girl, you should know that in your position, if you become Xu'er's main wife, he will likely be ridiculed by others. But since both of you have feelings for each other, this empress doesn't want to stand in your way. If you are willing to enter as a concubine, this empress can help you.”

"A concubine" Xiao Yuge was speechless. This old woman actually wanted her to be a concubine as soon as she opened her mouth. She wouldn't even agree to be the main wife, and now she wanted her to be a concubine What on earth was she thinking

The Empress Dowager simply ignored her reaction and continued, "You should have heard, Princess Minrou is betrothed to Xuan since childhood. She is the daughter of the Duke of Gao Yang, noble and well-suited for Xuan. If you are willing, I will make the arrangements and marry the three of you. Princess Minrou as the main wife, and you as a concubine. Wouldn't that be a win-win situation"

Xiao Yu Ge finally understood this time, it seems that Fang Min Rou couldn't persuade Qian Ting Xuan, so she asked the Empress Dowager to come forward Unfortunately, let alone would she do concubine for someone else, even if she was willing, Qian Ting Xuan wouldn't agree!

"Well, don't you want to" The Empress Dowager saw her lower her head and remain silent, mistaking it for unwillingness. Her face darkened slightly: "I allowed you to be Xu'er's concubine, but did I wrong you" In her eyes, Xiao Yuge's status was lowly, and being a concubine was already a favor.

"Your Majesty, I would never become someone's concubine. Princess Minrou likes the Wangye, that is her business. If Wangye wishes to marry her, I will have no objections and willingly step aside to let them be together!" To make me a concubine Not in a million years!

“You! You're so clueless!”

The Empress Dowager was so angry that she clutched her chest. Qin Mama rushed forward to support her and scolded Xiao Yuge, "You dare! You actually dare to disobey the Empress Dowager, don't you want to live"

Xiao Yu sang's lips curled into a slight smile, raising the corner of her mouth in a light chuckle: "Empress Dowager, there is no need to be angry. If you truly care about the Prince so much, then please take good care of your own health. Otherwise, it's uncertain whether the Prince will even last until the day he marries his bride!"

"You dare! To curse the prince!" Mama Qin was so angry she almost moved her hands.

Xiao Yu Ge looked at the empress dowager's uneasy eyes and sneered, "Does the maidservant speak nonsense Empress Dowager knows best in her heart, doesn't she"

The Empress Dowager's body trembled like withered leaves in the wind.

"Xiao Yu Ge! How dare you! To defy me like this! Come here, take her out!" Qin Mama was furious, ordering someone to drag Xiao Yu Ge away.

"All of you, get out!" At last, the Empress Dowager spoke, but her body still trembled like a sieve.

"The Empress Dowager..." Qin Mama didn't understand why the Empress Dowager would still protect Xiao Yuge.

The Empress Dowager gasped for breath, as if she could stop breathing at any moment. She stared fixedly at Xiao Yuge, then sat back down, trembling as she drank the tea offered by Qin Mamā.

"Aunt Qin, you all retreat first!" After calming down, the Empress Dowager allowed Aunt Qin and the maids to withdraw.

"The Empress Dowager..." Qin Mama looked at Xiao Yuge with some concern.

"Get out!" Finally, the Empress asserted her authority.

"Yes!" Grandma Qin glanced at Xiao Yuge with some concern, then waved her hand, signaling everyone to back out.

"Little Song'er, sit down." The Empress Dowager trembled as she gestured for Xiao Yuge to sit down. Her appearance seemed to suggest that she had something important to tell her.

Though Xiao Yu Ge was puzzled, she still sat down as instructed.

"Do you know something" The Empress Dowager asked directly, without beating around the bush.

Xiao Yu Ge nodded. "As a physician, I naturally understand that the empress dowager's life is intertwined with the prince's. If you are well, the prince will naturally be well." Anyway, there were no outsiders here, so she might as well speak up and take this opportunity to ask why she had given Qian Ting Xuan a blood curse back then.

"It seems I haven't been able to hide it from your sharp eyes." The Empress Dowager wore a wry smile. "I underestimated you. I didn't expect a young girl like you to know so much."

“I just want to know why you did that back then The king is your son, too.” Xiao Yuge lied. Revealing Qian Tingxuan's identity at this moment might really anger the Empress Dowager, which wasn't the outcome she desired. She would endure for now and speak later.

"Girl, knowing too much won't benefit you." Jiang was still as sharp as ever, shutting down Xiao Yuge's analysis with a single sentence.

"The Empress Dowager is right, it's just that this humble servant doesn't understand. Why is the Prince's life so miserable His face is ruined, he only has the title of Prince but no power or influence. Now his life is about to come to an end. How can there be such a pitiful person in the world..." Xiao Yuge sighed softly. Saying it this way, it seemed that Qian Tingxuan and her past self were quite sympathetic to each other. They were both abandoned and betrayed by others.

The Empress Dowager's hands trembled even more violently, the teacup she held rattling ominously: "You, your medical skills are so brilliant, could it be that you can't save him"

Xiao Yu Ge shook her head: “Even the most skilled female doctor has her limits. He was poisoned with a special type of toxin, and there is only one way to cure it in this world.” She knew the solution, and so did the Empress Dowager.

But... The Empress couldn't help but weep. The imperial womb had already merged with her, even if it was taken out now, it would be too late.

"Your Majesty, you also love the young master very much, don't you"

"I owe him too much, so very much!" Tears streamed uncontrollably from the Empress Dowager's dull eyes. Her gaunt hands, skeletal and thin, trembled incessantly. She seemed to be extremely agitated.

Xiao Yu's song stared at her with cold eyes, such belated regret was really not worthy of forgiveness, these tears that came too late were not worthy of pity. How could she not know that even if she removed the mother's womb now, it might not be able to save Qian Tingxuan. But she wanted to gamble, that man who was so unparalleled in style and talent, such a good man to her, shouldn't just disappear like this.

After leaving Shoukang Palace, Xiao Yuge kept thinking about what the Empress Dowager had just said. It seemed like the Empress Dowager regretted it. Would she sacrifice herself to save Qian Tingxuan She shook her head. She didn't think the Empress Dowager would. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been so cruel as to poison Qian Tingxuan in the first place.

"Sing!"is she!""Of course, how could I possibly lie to you" Xiao Yuge took two small candy people and handed one to him: "Here, you take one, I take one. Yours is a rabbit, mine is a tiger, roar!">Her playfu...
