Her Highness Doesn’t Want to Work Hard Anymore

Chapter 708 Accepting the Reality

There are only Concubine Zhen and Li Qiong in the room.

Li Qiong tearfully told about the humiliation she had suffered during this period, which made Concubine Zhen feel more distressed for him.

He pulled Concubine Zhen and begged her to help him escape.

"As long as I can escape, I can make a comeback."

Concubine Zhen shook her head: "Impossible."

Li Qiong thought that what she said was impossible, meaning that it was impossible to help him escape, and his face immediately darkened, his childish face was shrouded in haze.

"You are my concubine mother, don't you even want to help me?"

Concubine Zhen was slightly taken aback.

She didn't expect Li Qiong to change his face so quickly, and she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

But as a mother, she explained patiently.

"Even if you can escape, it is impossible for you to make a comeback. Not to mention that you are still young, no one will be willing to follow you. With the military power in the hands of the regent, no one in the world can compete with it."

Why doesn't Li Qiong know this truth?

He is just not reconciled.

He said bitterly: "If I knew this, I should have killed Li Ji and Li Xun!"

Concubine Zhen frowned: "Xun'er is your cousin."

Li Qiong was obviously tired of hearing this sentence.

He said impatiently: "Yes, yes, Li Xun is my cousin, but does he treat me as a cousin? If he really regards me as a relative, why would he rebel with his father?"

Having said that, Li Qiong sneered.

"What relatives are you talking about? In the end, they are not worth the power and interests!"

Concubine Zhen reminded: "Don't you first listen to the slander of the people around you and suspect that he has evil intentions?"

Li Qiong subconsciously turned up the volume: "He has evil intentions in the first place!"

Concubine Zhen: "Without evidence and no certificate, you shouldn't make wild guesses about your brother."

Li Qiong is plausible.

"Who says I have no documents? Mr. Zhu told me that Li Xun and his father are my nemesis. As long as they exist for a day, I will not be able to sit on the throne. Facts have proved that Mr. Zhu is right. Their father and son I lost everything!"

Concubine Zhen closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

I would rather listen to the slander of outsiders than my own brother.

Really stupid!

If this wasn't her son, she wouldn't bother to care about him anymore.

After a while, Concubine Zhen opened her eyes and let out a breath of foul air slowly.

"Have you ever thought that maybe you are preconceived and think that Li Ji and Li Xun will harm you, so you have a rift with them, which further promotes the hostility between them, and finally led to today's result."

Li Qiong was taken aback for a moment, but immediately denied it.

"No! Consort Mu, you don't understand, Mr. Zhu is a fairy!

He not only knows astronomy and geography, but also can count.

He has helped me calculate several times, and every time the result is exactly the same as what he said, he is really amazing!

Mr. Zhu once told me that the world we live in is actually a book.

My concubine and I are the protagonists of this world.

If Li Ji and Hua Manman hadn't been in the way, the concubine mother would have ascended to the position of empress dowager and become the most honorable woman in the world, and I would also inherit the throne and become the wisest emperor in the history of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

It was Li Ji and Hua Manman who ruined everything for us!

I hate them! "

Concubine Zhen was stunned.

It took her a long time to come back to her senses, and she stretched out her hand to touch Li Qiong's forehead.

"You don't have a fever, why are you talking nonsense?"

Li Qiong grabbed her hand and said eagerly: "I'm telling the truth, I can swear to the sky, if I tell a lie, I will be struck by lightning..."

Concubine Zhen hurriedly interrupted him.

"Okay, you won't be allowed to say such things in the future."

Li Qiong looked at her sadly, as if looking at the last straw: "Mother Concubine, you must believe me, I will never lie to you."

Hearing this, Concubine Zhen's gaze became complicated.

"You really never lied to me?"

Li Qiong didn't know what she thought of, and swallowed the words again.

He avoided the concubine's sight and lowered his head guiltily.

Concubine Zhen: "You promised me that you would release Manman back after I left the palace, but what did you do in the end? Instead of releasing Manman back, you put her under house arrest and almost killed her. "

Every time she said a word, the disappointment in her eyes deepened.

Li Qiong was so speechless that she couldn't hold her head up.

Concubine Zhen slowly withdrew her hand: "Qioner, why did you become like this?"

She has tried her best to train him and take care of him, why did he become like this in the end?

Li Qiong covered her face with her hands and choked up.

"I'm sorry, Concubine Mu, I was wrong. I shouldn't have lied to you. I will never lie to you again. Can you forgive me one last time?"

Concubine Zhen gently touched his head and said softly.

"You are my son, no matter what mistakes you have made, I will forgive you."

Li Qiong was overjoyed, and immediately raised her head: "Mother Concubine."

But then he heard Concubine Zhen add another sentence.

"But Manman is not your mother. She has no obligation to tolerate your selfishness. You have to take responsibility for your actions."

Li Qiong seemed to have been poured a basin of cold water over her head, and she felt her heart go cold.

Concubine Zhen: "I will find a way to intercede for you and try to give you a chance to live. As for other things, don't think about it anymore."

After speaking, she slowly stood up.

Li Qiong stretched out her hand anxiously, trying to grab her sleeve.

"Mother Concubine, don't leave, now only you can help me get everything back, please..."

Concubine Zhen avoided his hand.

She looked at her son who was kneeling on the ground begging for her son, and felt extremely regretful in her heart.

But in the end reason still overwhelmed emotion.

She didn't want her son to continue living in an unrealistic fantasy.

She said every word.

"Qione, accept the reality."

These words were like a knife, mercilessly cutting off Li Qiong's last hope.

His hands dropped, and his whole body froze.

"You have a good rest, I will come to see you some other day."

After saying this, Concubine Zhen became ruthless, looked away, turned and walked out.

When she was about to walk to the door, she suddenly heard Li Qiong's voice behind her.

"Obviously it was you who told me that I am the crown prince, the heir to the Great Zhou Dynasty, and everything in this world will belong to me.

I have been the prince for more than eight years, and I have lived every day according to the rules you set.

I tried my best to learn and make myself more mature than my peers.

I'm desperately trying to get your approval.

I want to be a good prince.

But now, mother concubine, you tell me, let me accept the reality...

Hahahaha, don't you think this is too ridiculous? "

Concubine Zhen stopped.

She turned around slowly and looked at Li Qiong who was kneeling on the ground and laughing out loud.

Li Qiong laughed and burst into tears.

Tears flowed down his cheeks.

"You make me a prince, I will be a prince, you make me accept failure, I will accept failure.

Why? Why do you say what you say? ! "
