Empress Xiao did not say anything else after calling out to him, crying her

heart out.

There was only one palace maid, Xi Chun, left by his side. Seeing this scene, she did not dare to go forward to persuade him. She wiped her tears and went down, closing the door tightly.

“Empress…”

Xiao Baoxin’s hand was held tightly by Empress Xiao. Her hand was so strong that it hurt a little.

However, this was still nothing. What she really couldn’t bear was Empress Xiao’s resentment, bitterness, and sourness. All kinds of emotions were intertwined, intense and conflicting. She didn’t experience all of it personally, but she could empathize with it.

Her tears flowed down uncontrollably, and she had a splitting headache.

Xiao Baoxin subconsciously pushed Empress Xiao away, covering his mouth

tightly, almost unable to vomit his heart out.

Empress Xiao was crying halfway when she was interrupted by Xiao Baoxin.

She looked at her in a daze,”You-again?”

Xiao Baoxin hurriedly shook his head, his face pale and ugly. No, I have been busy with the matters in the residence these few days. My appetite is not good.

Perhaps I ate greasy food in the morning…”

“You can’t be careless about this kind of thing. If I hadn’t been too careless back then and trusted someone, the child wouldn’t have died just like that’As Empress Xiao spoke, she began to cry again. No matter how she pulled out her handkerchief, she felt that she could not wipe it off, just like a pearl with a

loose thread.

“The child is gone?”

Although he had long heard Empress Xiao’s inner thoughts, hearing her say it with his own ears, Xiao Baoxin still couldn’t help but sigh,-Have you found out who did it?”

He pointed to the main point.

Empress Xiao sneered.” Chu Jiuniang!”

He spoke with certainty.

Xiao Baoxin was stunned for a moment. There was no such news outside the palace. Moreover, Imperial Concubine Chu had always been very peaceful and did not seem to be affected by this storm.

However, the news outside the palace had always been delayed compared to the news inside the palace. At least the news of Empress Xiao losing her son had not spread. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be so shocked.

“Your Majesty, you know?”

This question went to the heart of the matter. Xiao Baoxin’s heart trembled when he heard it, and his face turned ferocious.

She had worked hard to stabilize her pregnancy and was on tenterhooks all day long. Emperor Yong Ping still cared about her and was like a butterfly in the harem. Today, this concubine, tomorrow, that concubine. Even if there was evidence, Emperor Yong Ping would casually flip it over and say that there was no conclusive evidence as if nothing had happened.

Chu Jiuniang was still a noble consort!

“How could I not know? The news I received came from the emperor.-Empress Xiao laughed coldly.” Nianxia didn’t leave any words behind. She didn’t even say who had instructed her. But these days, someone had clearly seen her frequently meeting with a eunuch in Chu Jiuniang’s palace. Isn’t this evidence?” Isn’t this enough?”

How could the Emperor be sure? Three feet deep?

Xiao Baoxin wasn’t like Empress Xiao, who was agitated and had extreme

thoughts.”

“Where is that little eunuch?”

“Nianxia drowned in the imperial garden the night he died.””

Wasn’t this without evidence?

Xiao Baoxin asked softly,””How is the emperor going to deal with this matter?” This was the reason why Empress Xiao was unable to forgive him. She had lost her child without any evidence, but there was no explanation at all.

■■ of course, the Emperor won’t let it go like this.” Xiao Ning’s slightly pale lips curled into a mocking smile.”I grounded Chu Jiuniang because…He is not strict with his subordinates.”

“A single sentence of not being strict with your subordinates cost my child’s life!”

Empress Xiao stepped forward and held Xiao Baoxin’s hand tightly.””Sister-in-law, big lady, you must help me. I will not let my child die in vain. There are two cases of this kind of thing. If I don’t pursue this matter like the Emperor, everyone will think that I’m easy to bully and dare to ride on my head.”

Her family was all in Yizhou, and there were not many people in Jiankang that she could command, let alone the palace.

You can say that except for Xie Jia, she has no one to rely on.

Empress Xiao had actually thought it through during her pregnancy. Regardless of whether this child could be saved or not, the Xie family would definitely pull her to her side. Cishi Xiao was still in Yizhou, which was not peaceful. There were always small groups of foreign forces harassing the border. It would be difficult for Emperor Yongping to transfer him back to Jiankang within a year and a half.

Moreover, even if Provincial Governor Xiao returned, his roots were not in Jiankang, and he could not be compared to the Xie family’s power in Jiankang.

The Xie family was a hurdle that she could not bypass.

“Sister-in-law!”

Empress Xiao was agitated. Although her emotions weren’t as complicated and intense as before, she was still filled with hatred.

Xiao Baoxin experienced this heart-wrenching pain in real time.

Ever since the first time he ’empathized’ with the feelings of the person who was touched by Xiao Baoshu, who had suffered a strong blow, he could not only feel the other party’s inner thoughts, but even the slightest fluctuation of emotions, not to mention Empress Xiao’s current monstrous hatred.

This feeling was really sour and refreshing, torturing Xiao Baoxin to the point of wanting to die.

Actually, there was no need to feel it. No one would be able to stand this. If anyone dared to touch her son-although her old son was in his forties, he was old and scheming, and he hid his thoughts from her, he had crawled out of her womb. She could skin that person alive!

He wanted her to suffer in silence and beg for forgiveness.

Such a person had not been born yet!

However, although he was resentful, Xiao Baoxin had not lost his rationality.

“Niangniang, is it possible that the trouble is diverted to the east?”

Xiao Ning was stunned.” You’re the same as the emperor.””His tone was rather cold, clearly disagreeing with this statement.

The Emperor said this probably because he was protecting his favorite concubine and was unwilling to blame her for a child that had yet to take shape. Then what about Xiao Baoxin? Could it be that he did not want to help her and got involved in the harem’s grudges, offending the other aristocratic families?

After all, the Xie family was the most powerful family in Daliang. They had eliminated several other families and had been influential in the previous dynasty.

She needed the Xie family’s support, but on the other hand, the Xie family might not need her.

Although she was the empress of the mother of a country, she was not valued by the emperor. It was not easy for her to have an imperial heir, but she could still let someone do something to her without anyone knowing.

Empress Xiao found it hard to imagine that if Xiao Baoxin hadn’t insisted on inviting the imperial physician that day, she would probably have died without even knowing how. She still treated the head palace maid as her confidant. Just thinking about it made her afraid.

Chu Jiuniang, on the other hand, was punished by the Emperor. Before she was grounded, she ran to the Jiaofang Palace crying and apologizing to her. She was like a pear blossom covered in rain. She spoke like a lotus flower in a golden age, as if she was even more sorrowful than she was after losing her child.

In fact, including the Emperor, who could be in more pain than her?

Other than the pain of losing her child, she also felt guilty for her carelessness. She always thought that if she had been more careful, more suspicious, and no longer trusted Nianxia, the child would not have died.

Even though the culprit was guilty, how could she not be in the wrong?
