Chapter 253 "Regret"
In preparation for the crown prince's enthronement ceremony, there was a rare festive atmosphere in Taiji Palace.
The palace maids in the cold palace also received red seals as rewards.
Qi was no longer surprised.
The cold palace was a dead place, without hope.
Only when they get silver will these palace ladies be happy for two days.
She had been in the cold palace for ten years, but the emperor had never thought of her once.
She heard that the little girl she gave birth to was being doted on.
First he was given a fiefdom, then he was given real power, and his intelligence was unparalleled, known throughout the world.
Only then did Qi begin to feel a little regretful.
If she had not exchanged the baby and had kept this daughter, although she could not become the queen, she would still have enjoyed great glory.
A mother's status depends on her daughter.
Of course, it would be better if the child exchange was successful, as she could train her "son" to be a tool to seize the throne.
Being a daughter is inferior after all, but it is better than waiting to die in the cold palace.
Her numb mood continued until she heard the familiar name.
"What Princess Tianwu? What happened to her? Did she get any new reward?"
The little maid looked at her and said, "Princess Tianwu, oh, that's the princess you gave birth to. She was named the crown prince and entered the East Palace."
"Oh my god, this is the first princess in history to become a crown prince."
"It's amazing. I never thought that a princess could become a prince!"
She didn't think...
"impossible!"
"You lied! You lied to me!"
She grabbed the little maid's collar like crazy and said viciously, "Have you been idle in the cold palace and have nothing to do but tease others?"
"You use this lie to stimulate me."
"It's fun to watch me break down isn't it, bitch!"
Other palace maids came forward to pull them apart. Qi seemed full of energy from nowhere, and she didn't look like someone who had been living on coarse food for ten years at all.
Three or five people couldn't hold her down, but she still fluttered forward and tried to attack the palace maid.
He kept yelling, "Impossible! How can a daughter be the crown prince? How can she be worthy!"
The people around her scolded her: "You are such a bold and shrewish woman, how dare you speak disrespectfully to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? Do you have the final say on whether you are worthy or not?"
Everyone told her that the daughter whom she thought was useless, whom she wanted to replace and abandon, had become the crown prince of the Yue Dynasty.
He will become the king of Dai Viet in the future.
And she, her biological mother, should have been promoted to the throne of empress with her promotion, in order to give the prince the title of eldest daughter.
In the future, she will become the Queen Mother and realize the most glorious life of a woman.
Her name is recorded in history books, praising her legend.
He was buried in the imperial mausoleum and worshipped by the descendants of the Bei family for all eternity.
But because of her stupidity, now she is just a useless person in the cold palace.
Even the whole family was implicated and killed.
Qi suddenly burst into laughter, and his laughter was extremely strange and sharp, as if he was possessed by some demon.
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha......"
Her laughter gradually became lighter from the crazy beginning.
"If I had known, if I had known..."
What would have happened if I had known earlier?
Knowing that this daughter is as useful as her son, and can even become the crown prince on her own, she will definitely be the most loving mother.
But how could she have imagined that a princess could become a prince?
"Oh my God! Why are you playing such a joke on me!"
She questioned God there, but God did not give her any response.
Qi vomited a mouthful of scarlet blood.
The palace maids nearby stayed as far away from the crazy woman as possible, fearing that they would be affected.
They looked at each other, but still reported the news.
After all, she is the crown prince's biological mother. What if their new crown prince is a foolishly filial person?
So Bei Jingchu was told by Haoyue: "Your Highness, Qi in the cold palace has gone crazy."
Bei Jingchu was stunned for a moment before she remembered this person.
She is her biological mother.
Qi was swapped at birth and was punished.
Thinking about the trajectory in the original book, she would have a miserable life later on, and she never got to see her biological mother.
Now that I heard that she was crazy, I had the idea of meeting her.
Just meeting.
When she arrived at the cold palace, Qi was holding a baby in her arms and coaxing him.
The swaddling clothes were much better than the clothes she was wearing. Although they were not embroidered, they were at least clean and soft.
However, what was wrapped in the swaddle was not a baby, but a ball of cloth.
"Be good~ Be good~"
"My daughter is so good."
"You and A Niang are the closest, right? A Niang loves our daughter the most."
"So, when you grow up, you will be the most filial to your mother and treat her as the most important person, right?"
"Baby, you are the prince, you are the most promising girl!"
"Good~"
She held the baby in her arms with excessive affection, as if it were her whole world.
But Bei Jingchu did not feel the mother's love, but was full of desire.
The desire to see your daughter become a successful person.
This thick desire wrapped a lifeless swaddling cloth, and she felt suffocated.
She raised her head and saw Bei Jingchu at the door. She smiled foolishly and said, "Let me tell you, little girl, my daughter is the crown prince!"
"I am the prince's mother. Do you know how noble I am? I am the prince's mother!"
Bei Jingchu just stared at the woman who was driven crazy by the stimulation.
"Do you regret replacing me?"
The crazy woman was stunned for a moment and then fell silent.
"Do you know what will happen to me after I am swapped out of the palace and thrown away?"
"The first is death. If there is no kind-hearted person to take a baby in, it will not survive the next day in the ice and snow."
She looked at me blankly, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Even if I'm lucky enough to be adopted, it's hard for me to find a good family. I'll either be a child bride or a slave."
"Perhaps, he will enter a place like the Jiaofangsi. There are too many possibilities that I dare not think of."
"If I live a life of wandering, will you feel the least bit sorry for it?"
She didn't answer, so Bei Jingchu answered for her.
"you will not."
She remembered that in the original novel, she was poisoned to death by Qi.
"You only regret it because I entered the East Palace and you missed the glory that was within your grasp."
"Not because you feel sorry for me."
After the meeting, Bei Jingchu left as if he had understood something that had been bothering him.
She stood there blankly, tears streaming down her face.
But no one knew whether she was crying because of the hatred with her child or because of the lost wealth.
From that day on, there was a madman in the cold palace. She held a tattered baby in her arms all day long and said it was her daughter.
After leaving the cold palace, Haoyue stammered and tried to comfort her: "Your Highness... don't be sad."
"Qi is not worthy of being your mother. It's not worth being sad for her."
"If you are really sad, I can...I can also give you motherly love!"
She made it sound like she was volunteering and dying a heroic death.
Bei Jingchu: [...so brave!]
Haoyue didn't understand what it meant to compete in courage, but she felt that the princess, oh no, the prince was speechless.
The little girl felt very wronged. Why was she speechless?
She clearly cares about His Highness!
The one who was truly happy was Concubine Fang.
After receiving the news, he and Concubine Xian held a banquet in Xunfeng Palace and could not hide his joy at all.
Concubine De couldn't help but mutter, "She's neither my biological mother, nor my adoptive mother, nor my legal mother."
"She obviously has nothing to do with the princess, so why are you acting like she's her mother?"
Xian Fei corrected her: "You are addressing me as De Fei incorrectly. You should address me as Crown Prince now."
Defei agreed reluctantly.
Concubine Fang was unhappy with what she said, but she still managed her expression and explained officially: "The establishment of a crown prince for Dai Viet is beneficial to the stability of the country and is a happy event."
"How can you say it has nothing to do with the harem?"
"We are happy for His Majesty."
The concubines did not spoil the fun and said auspicious words one after another.
The Sixth Prince's biological mother did not show any displeasure either, but the Third Prince's biological mother, Concubine De, was obviously displeased.
Concubine Fang rolled her eyes silently.
Humph, she gave birth to a eldest son. Does this mean she feels that Chuchu is blocking her son's way?
