Chapter 510
Although forced by the situation, Ye Junran had no choice but to commit suicide by taking poison to save his son, but when Empress Dowager Li returned to Fengyi Palace accompanied by Wang Xian, things changed again.

"Retire all of you!" She ordered sternly, "Nurse Long, Ouyang, you stay! I have something to explain!"

Although the maids in the Fengyi Palace didn't know what happened, but seeing the Empress Dowager Li going out angrily, and when she came back, there was Wang Xian beside her, and a group of guards locked the exits of the Fengyi Palace, so they knew that it must be someone who came out. When something important happened, they didn't dare to be negligent, and all retreated carefully.

However, Wang Xian didn't leave. He stood there with his waist bowed, as if he didn't hear anything.

"Eunuch Wang, I want everyone to step down, don't you hear me!" Empress Dowager Li yelled, "Could it be that I have lost power, so Eunuch Wang doesn't care about me as the Queen Mother anymore? !"

"The miscellaneous don't dare!" Wang Xian said eccentrically, "Your Majesty has specially ordered that as long as you fulfill your promise before the sun goes down, he will never abolish your title as Queen Mother."

"In that case, why don't you back down?"

Wang Xian said with a smile: "The miscellaneous family is worried that you won't be able to think about the Queen Mother for a while? Your Majesty said that the Queen Mother is the Queen Mother after all, and she must die with dignity. She can't see blood, and she can't endure too much pain!"

"I know! That's why I summoned Ouyang!" Empress Dowager Li scolded angrily, "I can't trust the medicines prescribed by other imperial physicians!"

"Since the Queen Mother understands, the servant will step down for now." Wang Xian bowed his waist and said, and walked out of Fengyi Palace in small steps.

The palace door was slowly closed, and the Empress Dowager Li, who was able to sit upright on the phoenix chair only because of her majesty, suddenly collapsed and paralyzed.

With the support of Nanny Long, she walked up to Ouyang Wuyu and knelt down with a plop!

Ouyang was shocked, and hurriedly knelt down, saying: "Queen Mother, you are—"

"I'm about to die, so there's no queen mother!" Queen Li said bitterly, "Ouyang, I want you to prepare a bottle of fake death medicine for me immediately. The fake death effect must last for seven days, and I will wake up naturally after seven days!"

"Queen Mother, what do you want this for?" Ouyang didn't understand.

Empress Dowager Li sighed: "You heard the conversation just now. Ye Junran wants to kill me, in order to make his woman happy! This palace has been cornered! Wang Xian is the executioner who was ordered to send this palace on the road!"

"Queen, you are..."

"So what about the mother of the country, I am not his biological mother after all! When a man commits a crime, he can even beat his own mother, let alone I am just a foster mother!" Empress Dowager Li scolded viciously, "Can I escape this time?" One calamity, it’s all up to you! Before the sun goes down, it must be dispatched!”

"Queen..." Ouyang hesitated to speak.

Empress Dowager Li seemed a little unwilling to see him, and hurriedly said: "What? Is there any difficulty? I also want you to be prosperous and prosperous forever. It's a pity that I can't protect myself now. I'm afraid the promise that day..."

"The queen mother is worrying too much. I just want to ask the queen mother, have you planned what will happen after taking the fake death medicine?" Ouyang said softly.

Empress Dowager Li breathed a sigh of relief that Ouyang could still be so considerate in a desperate situation.

"For things after the suspended animation, I have already made a comprehensive plan! You don't have to worry!" She said, "Not only that, I have even thought about your escape route! Don't look at Bengong's embarrassment now, after all, he used to be Empress Dowager! Stand at the top of the empire! Your loyalty to this palace will always be remembered by this palace! I will never treat you badly!"

"Thank you, Empress Dowager." Ouyang Wuyu said flatly, because of the mask, Empress Dowager Li couldn't know his true expression.

……

In the evening, Wang Xian, who was sure that the Empress Dowager Li had passed away, returned to the Li Palace under the background of a burst of crying.

"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager has passed away." He said while wiping away his tears, as if this incident was beyond everyone's expectations.

Ye Junran, who was enjoying a sumptuous dinner with Su Yun, stopped his chopsticks when he heard the words, "Are you sure you have passed away?"

"It's absolutely true, the servant personally confirmed it!" Wang Xian said "with great grief", eunuchs are born actors, let alone a chief eunuch like Wang Xian who has been tempered to steel.

Ye Junran then sighed, and said: "Since this is the case, let's write off all the past! Wang Xian, the Queen Mother's funeral cannot be neglected! Immediately issue an edict to the whole country!"

"Yes!" Wang Xian bent down and exited the room.

Seeing how fluent their questions and answers were, Su Yun couldn't help feeling weird, and said, "Why do you look sad but not hurt, as if you knew she would die?"

Ye Jun laughed and said, "You saw through."

"Could it be that there was something hidden behind her death?" Su Yun asked in surprise.

Ye Junran smiled slightly: "The rumors in the palace have been rampant recently, and most of them came from Fengyi Palace. So I gave her a little warning, but I didn't expect her to be so scared!"

"That must be because you spoke too harshly!" Su Yun felt that Ye Junran was making a fuss out of a molehill.

Ye Junran said: "I didn't ask her to die, I just had a good talk with her, and showed her the guilt! Of course, she refused to admit it from the beginning to the end! I didn't expect to turn around After a while, she committed suicide in fear of crime! I really can't see that she is a woman in the palace, and she has such courage!"

"Suicide in fear of crime?" Su Yun felt that the matter was more and more weird. Based on her understanding of the Empress Dowager Li, this woman had exhausted everything to get the status of the Empress Dowager. How could she just let it go!
Ye Junran was more determined than ever: "Yes, she committed suicide in fear of crime!"

"What if she cheated her death?" Su Yun asked.

Ye Junran said coldly: "Then I can only say that she committed her own crimes and cannot live! I have summoned the whole country and announced her death. To the people of the world, she is already a dead person! Even if she is still alive, she must die!" Already dead! In other words, the living queen mother is 100% fake! It must be tied to the queen mother's spirit and executed!"

Although what he said was a bit cruel, Su Yun didn't sympathize with Empress Dowager Li at all.Time and time again, this woman thought she was smart and played tricks, but she only pushed herself into a more deadly position.

"Then... what do you plan to do with those people who serve the Empress Dowager Li?" Su Yun asked.

Ye Jun said: "Although many of them have been in collusion with Empress Dowager Li, most of them are still innocent. According to the usual practice, they are all assigned to work in the palaces of other concubines, and the most favored ones are sent to serve The Empress Dowager guards the tomb. I believe that the Empress Dowager also hopes that the most trusted person will guard her tomb!"

"You...you are so cunning!" Su Yun laughed, he just made the most appropriate arrangements for Queen Mother Li's confidants with just a few words, and completely blocked the possibility of Empress Dowager Li's golden cicada coming back from her shell!No wonder the first emperor wanted to give him the throne, this man's methods are really too powerful.

Ye Junran didn't take it seriously, and said: "No matter how good I am, I can't compare to you. You don't need to do anything, and you can make me exhausted to death."
