Chapter 1532: So Regretful
Yet who would've expected…
The king and the queen dowager originally did not plan to haggle over this with them.
"Wuwuwu." Consort Cheng started crying bitterly while covering her face.
What did she mean by 'didn't expect!' Shouldn't she long have realized it? The queen dowager and the king had always been kind-hearted. If it wasn't the huge crime of treason, it was simply impossible for them to execute her and her son!
It was no use at all to be regretful now.
Her foolishness had harmed herself, her son, and even everyone inside the Eldest Prince's Estate.
If she had listened to Shu Quan's exhortations back then and helped persuade the eldest prince to give up his claims to fame and gain, then would everything today have been different?
"Consort Cheng is at even greater fault for not reporting knowledge of this rebellion! Detain Consort Cheng with the others in the Highest Judiciary to await a final decision." After saying all this, Queen Zhao left while supporting the king.
The twelfth prince instantly turned a bit dumbstruck.
They had all left. It couldn't be that they had tossed all this stuff left to do here… to him?
Why was his life just so miserable? He had to pick up after these people's messes all day long.
"My granddaughter-in-law, is Grandmother old?" After the young crown prince consort supported the queen dowager for some time, the latter suddenly made such a remark.
The young crown prince consort shook her head. "You're not old."
The queen dowager involuntarily smiled at her. "You silly child, who won't turn old?"
"Grandmother is someone who will break through to the spiritual realm and even higher. Your lifespan is still long, so you naturally are not old," the young crown prince consort counseled with a wink.
On the side, Feng Gu couldn't resist chuckling. "That is correct. Your Majesty, the crown prince consort speaks wise words."
However, the old queen dowager couldn't help chortling. "You just know how to cheer up Grandmother. With Grandmother's aptitude, reaching level-14 phenomenal success of the mystic realm in this lifetime is already the limit…"
After saying this, the queen dowager saw the young crown prince consort stuffing a talisman into her hands.
"Grandmother, there are ten sets of mystic-guiding talisman matrices inside this storage talisman. It's my gift to Grandmother. There are also lots of pills that I labeled with their effects and usage directions. Grandmother can take a look before consuming them. After Grandmother's cultivation state stabilizes, you can use the level-14 mystic breakthrough pill. Who knows, you might break through."
"Oh, didn't you say that Ziyu Manor's mystic energy was thick and concentrated. Then you can go into closed-door cultivation there."
The queen dowager gazed flabbergasted at her young granddaughter-in-law. She subconsciously followed the crown prince consort's guidance and activated the talisman with a drop of blood. Then she turned dazedly to the young crown prince consort.
"Granddaughter-in-Law, you?" The talisman matrices and pill selections inside were simply an eye-opener.
Could it be that her young granddaughter-in-law had given her all the pills she refined in her spare time?
"There's too much, my child. You have to keep some for yourself too." It was very time-consuming to refine pills. How could she have this much time to refine so many pills when she had to both cultivate and refine pills.
Her granddaughter-in-law had probably given her all her assets!
"It's not much. I still have a lot for myself."
"Grandmother, I probably have to leave for a period of time." The young crown prince consort supported the queen dowager while walking to Longevity Palace. "You have to take good care of your body. If I see Grandmother with an extra piece of white hair when I get back, I'll help you pull it out!"
Feng Gu chortled in amusement and assured with a nod, "Do not worry, Crown Prince Consort. This servant will definitely watch over Her Majesty the Queen Dowager and prohibit her from growing another white hair."
"You child." The queen dowager gave Qiao Mu a gratified look.
Even though this child wore a stoic expression all day long and seemed to treat others coldly, she was quite softhearted.
