599 It hurts me badly

Xiaoming gradually opened his eyes and heard Jin Yu’s voice. His brows furrowed as he felt his body weak, but he could hear the voice of his wife Peng Yuxian.

After a while, the voices stopped and he felt Jin Yu’s hand above his. “Your Majesty,” she whispered and placed her other hand on his cheek, “please open your eyes.”

It took time for Xiaoming to open his eyes when she helped him in sitting in a half-lying position. She took the water glass from the tray and brought it to his mouth.

Xiaoming sipped water and moved his head away. The servant took the glass from Jin Yu and stepped behind. Jin Yu wiped his lips using her thumb.

“Your Majesty, a healthy soup is prepared for you,” Jin Yu said.

“I don’t want to eat,” Xiaoming said and kept his gaze away.

“Why?” Jin Yu’s eyes filled with tears. “You didn’t even take your meals in the morning,” she said.

Xiaoming didn’t speak. Jin Yu looked at the court lady and gestured to her to keep the tray on the table. The servant did what she was told and left the chamber.

“I want to be alone,” Xiaoming said.

.....

Jin Yu clenched her fist. “Drink this soup,” she picked up the bowl and handed it to him. Xiaoming gazed at her in confusion and saw she had risen to her feet.

“Drink it before I return,” Jin Yu said with a stern tone.

“Where are you leaving?” Xiaoming asked her.

“You don’t need me, so I must go out,” Jin Yu said and turned around. She lifted her heavy long skirt and walked out of the chamber. She locked it from outside and told the maidservants not to open it.

Xiaoming shouted her name, but she didn’t listen to him. He realized that he had angered Jin Yu. He looked at the soup and picked up the ladle.

Xiaoming didn’t want to infuriate Jin Yu more when she would return. He had to finish the soup before her return. His eyes had turned misty as he reminisced how his mother brought the poison for him.

Outside, Jin Yu marched to Queen Dowager’s manor. All this time, she didn’t speak against Zhu Liling, but she would not spare her today.

Zhu Liling heard about Jin Yu’s visit. Before she could refuse to see the Queen, Jin Yu entered.

“Are you really my husband’s mother? Are you really the one who gave him birth?!” Jin Yu questioned her. The court lady in service of Queen Dowager shouted at Jin Yu for disrespecting Zhu Liling.

“Don’t intervene if you want to live,” Jin Yu’s voice intimidated the court lady, which angered her.

The Court Lady stepped up to slap Jin Yu on the behalf of the Queen Dowager when Jin Yu grabbed her hand and twisted it. She cried in pain and Jin Yu pushed her away.

The court lady fell to the floor and shouted for the servants.

“A mother cannot order to bring poison for her child,” Jin Yu said. “I never saw him this broken. Since the morning, he could not take a single morsel of food. It was unbelievable and unbearable for him to find his mother did something sinful for him.”

Jin Yu wanted to punish Zhu Liling on Xiaoming’s behalf, but at the same time, she was hesitant. Zhu Liling was Xiaoming’s mother after all. Jin Yu didn’t want him to carry the guilt of seeing her punished.

“Blame Lóng Wei for this,” Zhu Liling. “He snatched my son, my husband from me. The son I gave birth to was not the Xiaoming I know today,” she muttered.

“Xiaoming knows the difference between right and wrong, unlike his mother. He got fainted because of you,” Jin Yu pronounced and tears rolled down her cheeks. She fisted her palm and covered the distance between them.

Jin Yu didn’t care if she was in from of Queen Dowager, who held more power than her. She grabbed Zhu Liling by her collar and glared into her eyes.

The servants got stunned to see that. No one could ever dare to do this.

“Queen Dowager, your husband was not a human. Don’t become ruthless because of your late husband. Don’t make me take the decision to get you killed,” Jin Yu said with a stern tone.

“His Majesty is my life and if anyone tries to harm him, I will not hesitate to kill that person. Be remorseful for your acts.” Jin Yu pushed Zhu Liling away, who faltered.

“Throw this woman to the prison,” Jin Yu ordered the soldier, who was standing behind her. The court lady was dragged out from the Queen Dowager’s chamber.

Jin Yu turned around and walked out. Zhu Liling started to laugh and then after a while, she started weeping. Jin Yu heard her insane cries, but she didn’t pay heed to them.

When she returned to the King’s chamber, she saw Xiaoming had the soup bowl near his mouth.

“I finished it. Forgive me for earlier,” Xiaoming said and licked his lips. He placed the bowl on the bedside table.

“I didn’t want you to leave,” Xiaoming said.

Jin Yu approached him and sat on the bed before hugging him. “I was scared when you fainted. It took you an hour to wake up,” she complained to him.

Xiaoming circled his arms around her waist and apologized to her to make her worried.

“I was tensed after finding the truth. I love her, Jin Yu. She is my mother no matter what. This feeling is clenching my heart more. I have decided to send her away because if she would stay here, I would hate myself for letting her go unpunished.”

Jin Yu caressed his back. “It’s alright, Xiaoming. You have been a great son to her and still are. I wanted to punish her and throw her into prison, but then she is your mother,” she informed him.

“I truly wished my mother to understand me. It hurts me badly,” Xiaoming said.
