[✓] Transmigrated As Cannon Fodder To Marry (MTL)

Chapter 48

The sixth prince, Yue Heng, is the big villain in the original book, but he is also a veritable little pitiful one.

He acts as an invisible man for half of the novel, until the second half of the original novel, when Emperor Changde is seriously ill and the crown prince is in sight, he frequently comes out to disrupt the situation.

It can also be said to be revenge.

Everyone knew that the sixth prince was weak and sick, and the empress took good care of him and loved him. When the sixth prince became an adult, he begged Emperor Changde to let him live in the palace so that she, a mother, could take care of him. The love between mother and child was deeply touching.

But who knew that the empress was just on guard against the sixth prince knowing the truth, for fear of his revenge.

At that time, the queen and the first concubine were pregnant successively, but the queen's child was not so righteous, she used some methods, and was overly frightened during pregnancy, resulting in stillbirth.

Even though the imperial doctor told her that there was something wrong with the child, the queen still had a chance to give birth to the child, but the result was naturally a stillborn baby, which was not even fully developed. Such a fetus has always been regarded as an ominous existence, not to mention that it was born by the empress. Once the news is leaked, not only her own succession will be lost, but even the Cao family will be implicated.

The empress would never allow this to happen. Fortunately, she was well prepared. The empress pretended to have a dystocia, and then sent someone to drug the other pregnant concubine Li, who was the birth mother of the sixth prince, Yueheng, to cause her to give birth prematurely.

Of course, the prematurely born child was replaced by the queen with a dead baby. Lipin gave birth to an unlucky baby, which aroused Emperor Changde's anger, abolished her concubine's position and put her in the cold palace. Lipin's family was also implicated, and has since declined.

Emperor Changde never heard a word of Concubine Li's explanation from the beginning to the end.

Concubine Li had heard the cry of the child, and she believed that she would never give birth to a stillbirth. In the cold palace, Concubine Li was also trying to find ways to see Emperor Changde to prove her innocence, and to bring the child back.

The queen had a difficult labor, but she suddenly gave birth prematurely. At that time, Concubine Li realized that the queen must have tampered with it. However, the empress is in charge of the six palaces, so it is very easy to deal with a disused concubine locked in the cold palace, not to mention that she wanted Concubine Li to die, after all only the dead can keep secrets.

The blood bone worm was used on Li Pin, and it didn't take long for Li Pin to bleed to death. Even because of the late discovery, the blood bone worm was already gnawing at Li Pin's flesh when she was buried.

After getting rid of Concubine Li, the empress silenced all the insiders back then, and used dystocia to cover up the fact that the sixth prince was born prematurely and weak, and detained the sixth prince in Changning Palace, rarely letting him go out.

The sixth prince is like an invisible person, but the rumors outside are all about how the empress dotes on this son.

It's just that there will never be an impenetrable wall in this world, and there will never be a secret that can be hidden. It is not only Concubine Li who is locked in the cold palace, but also another concubine who was demoted to the cold palace when the former emperor was in power. She was old enough to pose no threat to anyone, and no one had noticed her since.
