The concubine escaped and cried when she met the prince again

Chapter 506 I'll Beat You to Death, You Vicious Woman

After the Queen finished speaking, she was afraid that the Emperor would not believe her, so she continued to say to the Emperor: "Your Majesty, Qing'er also likes Shen Ruolan. He would rather hurt himself than touch her. It is because I cannot bear to see this that I want to kill Shen Ruolan."

The queen is now feeling very regretful. If she had known earlier, she would have listened to her son and should not have touched Shen Ruolan, otherwise she would not have brought him so much trouble.

The emperor was a little surprised to hear that the prince also liked Shen Ruolan, but when he thought about the fact that he had been with Shen Ruolan in Fuzhai for more than a year, and Shen Ruolan's stunning appearance, it was normal for him to like her.

The emperor was silent for a moment. He looked at the queen expressionlessly and said, "Queen, I never thought that you would kill innocent people for a woman. You are narrow-minded and cannot be worthy of the position of the mother of the country."

The queen lowered her head and said with a guilty look on her face: "Your Majesty, I am willing to accept any punishment, but I only ask you not to let this matter affect Qing'er."

The emperor snorted at the queen and asked, "Do you think it's possible?"

The queen knew that Jiang Dichen would not let her off easily this time, but she still shamelessly pleaded with the emperor: "Your Majesty, I know that my sins are grave and unforgivable. I am willing to die in exchange for Qing'er's safety."

As soon as the queen finished speaking, she suddenly stood up and slammed her head against the pillar in the study. There was a loud "bang" and the queen fell to the ground instantly, with blood gushing out of her head.

When Eunuch Li saw this, he exclaimed loudly: "The Queen..."

Jiang Qing, who had been guarding outside the door, heard the voice inside. He ignored the guards' obstruction and hurried in, shouting, "Mother..."

Jiang Qing quickly ran to his mother, picked her up and shouted anxiously, "Mother, what's wrong with you? Mother..."

When Empress Wu heard her son's voice, she opened her eyes with great effort, looked at him, and said to him, "Qing'er, mother, mother, never again..."

Before Empress Wu could finish her words, she died.

"Mother..." Jiang Qing hugged his mother's body and cried out in grief.

The emperor looked at the queen who committed suicide, and while he felt relieved, his expression became complicated.

He couldn't understand, wouldn't it be nice for her to just sit in her queen's seat? Why did she do something that hurt herself and others?

As long as she did her best, no matter who inherited her position in the future, she would still be the high and mighty empress dowager. Why would she end up dying so tragically?

The emperor couldn't figure it out, so he simply gave up thinking about it and temporarily revoked the crown prince's status on the grounds that he had to observe mourning. After the queen was buried, he sent him to the bitter and cold northern border to observe mourning, and he was not allowed to return to the capital without an imperial decree.

As for the person who poisoned the people, all the responsibility was borne by Lan Shurong.

Although Jiang Dichen was not very satisfied with his father's arrangement, fortunately the two annoying people were no longer in the capital, so he was too lazy to care about it.

That afternoon, Jiang Dichen brought Lan Shurong and her servant to the Caishikou, and shouted to the many family members of the poisoned people: "My fellow villagers, the culprit who poisoned you has been caught. Now I hand him over to you. You can kill him or chop him up as you wish."

After hearing what Jiang Dichen said, the relatives of the deceased pointed at Lan Shurong and her servant and shouted, "Kill her, kill her..."

In the crowd, Lan Mao felt very sad when he saw his daughter being tied up and being killed by everyone. He looked around and saw Shen Ruolan was next to Jiang Dichen. He quickly squeezed into the crowd and came to Shen Ruolan, saying with tears in his eyes: "Wanxi, Shurong is your biological sister, please be magnanimous and spare her this time."

After Shen Ruolan heard what Lan Mao said, she turned to look at him and asked coldly, "Sister? When she was doing evil and blaming me, did she ever think of me, her sister?"

Lan Mao pleaded pitifully to Shen Ruolan, "Wanxi, your sister was just bewildered for a moment. She really knows she was wrong. Please forgive her this time."

As Lan Mao finished speaking, Lan Shurong also begged for mercy: "Wanxi, I was wrong. I am sorry for you. Please forgive me once, okay? I really won't dare to do it again in the future."

Shen Ruolan looked at her coldly and said, "Lan Shurong, four years ago, when you caused my miscarriage, I warned you not to mess with me in the future, or I would beat you up every time I saw you..."

Shen Ruolan paused when she said this, and suddenly said to Lan Shurong in a stern voice: "But not only did you not listen to my warning, but you also wanted to drag me down to hell. I'm sorry, but I, Shen Ruolan, am not a saint. Anyone who hurts me will be repaid double!"

After Shen Ruolan finished speaking, she looked at the families of the deceased and said loudly: "Fellow villagers, I am really sorry for what happened yesterday. I didn't know there were such cruel people in the world who would do anything to get revenge..."

Many of the deceased's family members had already understood the truth of the matter. They interrupted Shen Ruolan and said, "Doctor Shen, this is not your fault. If you want to blame someone, blame the many monsters and demons in this world."

Shen Ruolan responded to everyone: "Thank you for your understanding, and please accept my condolences."

After Shen Ruolan finished speaking, she thought for a moment and continued, "Although I did not cause everyone's death, it was at least partly due to me. To show my respect and concern for the deceased, I, Shen Ruolan, hereby promise to compensate each deceased person with 100 taels of silver. You can bring my prescription and evidence of the deceased to my other courtyard to collect it."

"Thank you, Doctor Shen." After Shen Ruolan finished speaking, many relatives of the deceased looked at her with excited expressions and thanked her.

Jiang Dichen whispered beside Shen Ruolan: "Ruolan, I have already compensated them with the silver, you don't actually have to give it to them."

One hundred taels of silver per person seemed a bit too much to Jiang Dichen.

Shen Ruolan said to Jiang Dichen: "What you give is yours, and what I give is mine."

What Shen Ruolan didn't say was that although the deaths of these people were not caused by her, they were also related to her. If she didn't do something for their families, she would feel guilty.

Seeing Shen Ruolan's firm attitude, Jiang Dichen stopped trying to persuade her and just told her, "If you have any trouble with money, you can tell me."

The reason why Jiang Dichen said this was because Shen Ruolan bought a lot of things on the way here and she didn't have much cash left.

Shen Ruolan smiled at Jiang Dichen and said, "Okay."

As soon as Shen Ruolan finished speaking, she heard Lan Shurong scream "Ah!". She looked in the direction of the voice and saw a group of people suddenly rushing forward and beating and kicking her.

"You vicious woman, give me back my family."

"I will beat you to death, you vicious woman, to avenge my dead child."
