My Wife is a Psychic

197 Your Daughter Is Long Dead

The empress’s heart was numb from the pain and her lips were trembling. The child she had taken care of and raised for more than ten years was not even her child! She had personally sent an imposter into the palace to sleep with her husband!

The empress was so angry that she vomited blood! She felt as if the sky had collapsed. In the past, she had taken the position of the empress with her hands stained with blood. For this supreme position, her hands were even stained with the blood of unborn or already-born children. The emperor only had one son as an heir and none of the children he had could be kept. The emperor thought that it was his own fault, but he did not know that this was all man-made.

She did not know if it was because she had done too many shameful things, but the empress had miscarried several times when she was pregnant. She could not keep a single child, and her body became weaker and weaker each time, making it harder and harder for her to conceive. When she got pregnant again, it seemed that all the discomfort in her body was gone. Every night, she would have different sweet dreams. Every time she woke up, the corners of her mouth would be raised. Even the imperial doctors could not do anything about her weak body, but it actually got better day by day after she got pregnant. The empress regarded the child in her stomach as her lucky star, as her life’s support. She even felt that this child was sent by heaven to save her.

It was only when the imperial preceptor divined that the child in the empress’ stomach would be the opportunity for their country to move towards glory and prosperity that the empress’ thoughts reached a peak. She called out to the emperor and crown prince every day, waiting for the child to be born to become their country’s crown prince, the future king.

She hoped and hoped that everyone in Jing City would know that the child in the empress’ stomach was the crown prince who was destined to be born. This also caused tragedy in the future. When the child was born, it was a girl. The empress almost went crazy. At that time, the Northern Border happened to be invading, so she took the opportunity to have her child kidnapped. Who knew that when the child was found, it became a boy, the current crown prince?

The empress knew that the child’s gender was wrong, but she did not make it public. After that, she secretly contacted Xiao Meili. She had something on Xiao Meili and decided to just make the best of it. She thought that Zhao Panpan was her daughter, her little princess. As long as Zhao Panpan married the crown prince when she was of age, the royal bloodline would still be pure and the throne would still belong to them. However, she never thought that Xiao Meili would be so bold. After her little princess died of illness, she found a girl to replace her dead child and lied to her for so many years. Now, she even let the child enter the palace to fight for her husband! This made the empress feel as disgusted as if she had eaten a fly!

“You’re so bold. Aren’t you afraid that I’ll announce that matter and have your entire Xiao family executed?” The empress’ heart ached so much that she almost could not sit still, and her face was as white as a ghost.

Xiao Meili put on a fake smile and said, “Do you know who helped you change your child? Don’t you think his face looks very familiar? You can draw that person’s portrait for His Majesty to see and see if His Majesty recognizes him. Do you think you can escape if you publicize the past?” Xiao Meili laughed coldly. Once the events of that year were made public, no one would be able to live.

The empress’ expression changed drastically, “You’ve been scheming against me since a long time ago?” From the moment I gave birth to the child, you began to scheme against me?” The empress felt the world spinning around her. She thought that she had been smart her whole life, but she had been fooled by Xiao Meili!

Xiao Meili did not say anything. She was not plotting against the empress, but the rich and beautiful country! This empire should not have been theirs!

...

“Empress, you can go and tell His Majesty. When the time comes, it’s fine if the empress dies alone, but what about the family behind her? That’s a whole family. With the things the empress has done, I’m afraid it’s enough to implicate nine generations of the family, right?” Xiao Meili laughed out loud. This was really like giving a pillow when one was drowsy. ‘Your Majesty, you’re the one who shot your own foot.’

“Then, you cruelly harmed my child and killed my little princess!” The empress screamed madly, but there were eyes and ears everywhere in the palace. She did not even dare to vent her anger completely, so she could only suppress her voice like a trapped beast.

Xiao Meili did not expect this to be such a big blow to the empress. She cursed in her heart, and then she saw the empress throw a jade ornament at her face.
