The emperor sat down and said, "The prince is sick, don't you know?"

Rongpin stopped and then went to the palace servant: "Your Highness is sick, you don't come to report me!"

The palace people knelt down, and after speaking, Rongpin said to the emperor, "I'll go and have a look."

"No need." The emperor took the tea in his hand.

Rongpin paused and asked someone to go to get the cloak: "I'd better go. This child can't live without me, and I can't let it go after hearing this."

"Do you feel sorry for him so much?" The emperor looked at her and turned to say, "That's right. Without him, you can't reach today."

Rongpin's expression changed slightly: "What does brother-in-law mean?"

The emperor said, "My harem is empty, and the Ministry of Rites advised me to accept the concubine one by one, and I can't stand it. Besides, I only got the crown prince and the emperor's heir, and it's not in accordance with the rules no matter how I say it.

"However, if I accept the concubines in, I am afraid that they will be bad to the prince. If you have followed me for so many years, have you not thought of a complete plan for me?"

Rongpin never expected that the emperor would say something like this. Her expression slowed down, but then she became stagnant: "This is my brother-in-law's business, I dare not speak nonsense."

"Why don't you dare? Look at me that I believe you so much. I believe whatever you say. The prince will also give you the care. Apart from your sister, the woman I trust the most is you."

The emperor glanced at her sideways: "Your sister was so outstanding back then, I couldn't help but be happy with me. Do you just take me seriously and have no idea at all?"

Rongpin felt that her heart was hard to suppress, so she lowered her head: "I don't dare. How could my appearance be like a sister?"

"You mean your sister's vision is not as good as you?"

"I dare not die!"

The emperor stared at her for a while and put the cup down: "Since you don't mean that, then forget it. I won't force it."

"Emperor!" Rongpin suddenly raised his head and curled his fingers with his hands on the armrest.

"What's wrong?"

"As long as I do anything for the sake of the prince's good, I will do it."

The emperor stared for a while and looked ahead: "How did she die? Tell me again."

"explain."

Just one word, it is irresistible.

Rongpin looked at the emperor's calm expression and calmed down, saying, "Sister has been depressed since her brother-in-law left. After searching for a while, the war broke out frequently and he gave up.

"When she was pregnant, she was very hard and often distracted. Especially after experiencing the pain of giving birth, she often shed tears secretly and revealed her thoughts of disgusting the child. I was afraid that she would not be able to do anything to attack the child, so I told my sister-in-law that we took the child out and took turns to take care of it.

"I didn't expect that she took the baby back to the room on the excuse that night, and lit it in the fire late at night."

"You've seen this with your own eyes?"

"Of course I saw it with my own eyes. At that time, my brother-in-law often looked at my sister in secret. Don't you know that I often accompany her all night?"

"Do you know it?" The emperor took out a golden circle and placed it on the table.

When Rongpin saw the golden circle, he couldn't help but straighten his back and looked up at the emperor.

"There is the nickname of the prince on it. If your sister doesn't love children, why should she wear this for safety?"

Rongpin said: "Where did this come from?"

"Your sister gave it."

Rongpin stood up, her face suddenly turned white. Her fingers were tightly tucked together, and she couldn't make a smooth expression for a while.

“…How did my sister give it?”

"Guess."

Concubine Rong swallowed quickly, and her face turned from snow-white to blue-white as if she had seen a ghost.

"Impossible!... With such a big fire, can she escape?"

"I don't think it's possible," said the emperor, "After all, I saw the burning room with my own eyes, and you explained the whole story without any mistake.

"Whether it is her motive for self-immolation or her hatred for me, even if I ask you again every one or two years, your narrative sounds perfect.

"So why do you think she can escape?"

Concubine Rong was speechless.

The emperor patted the golden circle on the table.

The sudden loud noise made people's hearts jump up!

"You can think of her escaping because you are not sure whether she is dead or not. But since you have been able to hold this statement to the end for more than ten years, you must be very sure of your plan." The emperor walked up to her, with his half-drooping eyes showing his ice edge. "Who helped you set the fire? What are you trying to do?"

Rongpin was forced to retreat under the curtain and spoke with difficulty: "How come the emperor thinks so? Why did I set fire? That is my sister who depends on each other. How could I set fire?"

The emperor's eyes became a little colder again, and he looked at her without saying a word.

Rong swallowed the liquid violently and said, "So, is my sister still alive?...If so, that would be great!

"I miss her day and night for years, and I only regretted that I was full of my heart on Xu'er at that time, and even failed to protect her. If she was still there... that would be great!"

She clenched her fists: "But sister is really, since she is not dead, why haven't she heard from me for so many years? Even the elder brother and the others have no whereabouts...

"She also made the emperor misunderstand me. Did she not really seek death back then, but knew her brother-in-law's identity, so she pretended to die and avoid it?

"...Why is she so cruel? Even if she hates you, she shouldn't leave her child... Since she is going to commit suicide, why is she coming now?

"It's impossible that she saw the prince grow up safely, and the emperor was so successful that he unified the world, so he wanted to come back? How can this be done?

"Your Majesty, you want to take her back to the palace and don't dare to say anything, but please don't listen to the slander and distract me from my relationship with Xu'er!

"I risked my life to save him from the fire, and I followed the emperor to take good care of him over the years, and even ignored my own future. Even if I had never given him, I would have treated him as my own child!

"You can't let your sister slander me like this. You can't just listen to her words! I have always regarded her as my own sister!"

"If you really care about her so much, would you say it was impossible when you first heard her alive?"

The emperor gritted his teeth: "If you really feel sorry for her, you will only seize every possible fantasy that she is still alive. You would rather wake up and find that it was a dream than hope she is alive!

"Because you can't be sure whether they die or not, so on the other hand, while accusing me from the standpoint of the Yuan family, defrauding me of guilt and care for you, and while leaving a way out for yourself, you are ready to confront you in person one day, and you can still use the above words to argue for yourself!

"I have to say that you have a very thoughtful plan. If the prince was not smart, you would probably hide this secret until the end!"
