Chapter 553 The Legend of Zhen Huan An Lingrong 10

An Lingrong was even more frightened when she heard this, and her body couldn't help but tremble slightly. Musk is a forbidden item for women, and wearing it for a long time will cause infertility.

What was the Queen's intention in giving her this carnelian necklace?

Yinzhen's fingers holding the pearl necklace turned pale due to excessive force. He took a deep breath, tried to suppress the anger in his heart, and asked coldly: "Are you sure it's musk?"

"Your Majesty, I would never dare to speak nonsense. Although the amount of musk used is very small and the smell is very faint, I have been immersed in medicine for many years and I would not be wrong." The imperial physician kowtowed, his tone firm and unquestionable.

"Good, very good!" Yinzhen laughed in anger and smashed the string of red chalcedony beads to the ground, making a crisp cracking sound.

"Musk..." An Lingrong murmured to herself, her body swayed and she almost fell. Yinzhen quickly supported her, held her in his arms, gently stroked her back, and comforted her softly: "Rong'er, don't be afraid, I'm here."

He raised his head, and his eyes swept across the people in the hall like an icy blade, finally landing on the imperial physician kneeling on the ground, and said in a deep voice: "If you dare to reveal even a word of this matter..."

"I dare not! I absolutely dare not!" The imperial physician was so frightened by Yinzhen's eyes that he kowtowed rapidly.

Only Yinzhen and An Lingrong were left in the palace, and the atmosphere was so oppressive that it was suffocating. An Lingrong snuggled in Yinzhen's arms, feeling his warm embrace, but her heart was still restless.

Why did the Queen want to harm her? Was it just out of jealousy?

Yinzhen gently patted An Lingrong's back and asked softly, "Rong'er, are you afraid?"

An Lingrong raised her head and looked into Yinzhen's deep eyes. A warm current surged in her heart. She shook her head and said softly, "As long as the emperor is here, I am not afraid."

"Okay, I promise you, I will find out the truth and give you an explanation." Yinzhen's tone was firm and unquestionable. He lowered his head and kissed An Lingrong lightly on the forehead, his eyes full of pity and love.

Yinzhen's face was terribly gloomy, like the sea before a storm. He waved his hand, signaling the palace servants to leave.

"Rong'er, I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter. You should have a good rest, and I will come to have dinner with you in the evening." His voice was low, but it had the power to soothe people's hearts.

An Lingrong nodded gently, with tears in her eyes. Her pitiful appearance aroused Yinzhen's desire to protect her. He gently helped her to the bed, tucked in the corners of the quilt carefully, and then turned and left.

The moment he stepped out of the palace, the gentleness on Yinzhen's face disappeared instantly, replaced by a chilling coldness.

He called the secret guards and ordered in a cold tone: "Go and investigate! Investigate the queen thoroughly for me! Find out what else she has done behind my back!"

The secret guard took the order and left, disappearing into the night. Yinzhen stood alone in the shadow of the palace, with a raging rage in his heart.

The Queen, whom he had always respected, actually dared to treat his beloved woman so viciously!

Over the years, he boasted that he had treated the queen well, giving her honor and dignity, but what about her?

Instead of being grateful, she challenged his bottom line again and again.

In the past, he could turn a blind eye to those things because she was the mother of the country, but now, she actually dared to lay a hand on his Rong'er!

Yinzhen's fists were clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white.

A few days later, the secret guard returned to the Yangxin Palace to report.

“Your Majesty, the Empress has indeed done a lot of things secretly over the years.” The secret guard knelt on one knee, speaking in a respectful tone, but could not hide the horror in his words.

In the Yangxin Palace, the candlelight flickered, illuminating the mess on the ground. Yinzhen sat on the dragon throne, his face terribly gloomy. The secret guard's report was like thunder, exploding in his ears, making him dizzy.

The Queen, Yixiu, the Queen whom he had always respected, actually did so many shameful things behind his back!

"Your Majesty..." The kneeling secret guard spoke tremblingly: "Over the years, the Queen has used her status as the head of the six palaces to secretly suppress many concubines, and even..."

He paused, as if weighing his words.

"Even what? Say it!" Yinzhen slammed the table and roared angrily.

The secret guard was so frightened that his whole body trembled. He lowered his head quickly and said in a trembling voice: "He even...secretly murdered the heirs of several young masters..."

"What?!" Yinzhen was struck by lightning. He stood up suddenly and looked at the secret guard in disbelief.

"What did you say? Say it again!"

The secret guard was so frightened that he lowered his head even lower and repeated with a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, you have murdered several heirs of the throne..."

Yinzhen felt a black screen before his eyes and nearly fainted. He held onto the dragon chair and took a few deep breaths before he managed to steady himself.

He closed his eyes, and Yixiu's gentle and virtuous face appeared in his mind, but his heart was cold.

It turns out that all this is an illusion!

She hid it so deeply that he didn't even notice it!

"I always thought that she was the most sensible woman in the harem, but I didn't expect..." There was a hint of fatigue in Yinzhen's voice.

"I gave her honor and dignity, but she took my tolerance for her as a pretext for her to act recklessly!"

The secret guard did not dare to answer, but knelt quietly on the ground, waiting for Yinzhen's next instruction. He knew that the emperor needed not comfort but venting at this moment.

"Your Majesty... Empress Chunyuan had difficulty giving birth, and she was also the Empress..." The secret guard's voice became lower and lower, almost inaudible, but he knew that Yinzhen must have heard it clearly.

There was a dead silence in the Yangxin Palace, and one could hear a pin drop. Yinzhen seemed to be frozen in place, motionless, only his chest rose and fell violently, showing the turbulent waves in his heart at the moment.

Yinzhen raised his head abruptly and squeezed out a few words through gritted teeth: "Keep talking!"

The secret guard's head almost touched the ground, his clothes soaked with cold sweat, and he said in a trembling voice: "The Queen Mother tampered with Queen Chunyuan's diet back then, which led to... led to..."

"What led to it?!" Yinzhen stood up suddenly, grabbed the guard by the collar, and shouted angrily: "Speak!"

"It caused Empress Chunyuan to suffer from difficult labor and hemorrhage during childbirth..." The secret guard's voice became smaller and smaller, almost inaudible.

"Chun Yuan..." Yinzhen murmured to himself, but An Lingrong's pretty face appeared in his mind.

Chunyuan, his legal wife, the one he once thought was his lover.

But now thinking about it, his attitude towards Chun Yuan is more of a responsibility, an explanation to the family, and a remembrance of his lost youth.

Thinking back on it now, these memories seemed so pale and powerless, as if covered with a thick layer of dust, no longer able to stir up a ripple in his heart.

"Your Majesty..." Seeing that Yinzhen looked a little dazed, the secret guard called out cautiously.
