If someone called the imperial doctor, wouldn't that prove that she treated the princess harshly?
Although she was a concubine, she was still the emperor's daughter.
Concubine Zhang's eyes suddenly turned to Li Chuchu. Li Chuchu quickly lowered her head and opened her mouth at a loss: "Concubine, I..."
Before Li Chuchu could finish speaking, Li Huang went out of his way and stepped forward to hold her hand, deliberately exposing the red mark on her hand.
She sighed: "Chu Chu, if you are really in a hurry and want to leave the palace, just send someone to the eldest princess's mansion to deliver a letter to me. Why should you wrong yourself like this for a non-blood related great-grandmother?"
The words "grandmother" directly hurt Mrs. Zhang.
She looked at Li Chuchu with a stern look: "What's the matter with the injury on your hand?"
After fighting in the palace for most of her life, could she see Li Chuchu's little tricks?
Li Chuchu knew that Concubine Zhang had seen through her. If she could not stabilize her in time, then she and Concubine Luo would have no support.
Thinking of this, she rolled her eyes and knelt down beside the bed.
"Taifei, when I was bringing the medicine just now, I accidentally knocked it over and got burned. It was Brother Sanhuang who misunderstood."
"The concubine has always loved Chu Chu very much. Now that the concubine is ill, Chu Chu wishes she could stay by her side day and night."
As she spoke, she wiped away her tears with a sincere look on her face, and there was no trace of the stabbing she had just done secretly.
Li Huang admired her a little, otherwise, some people are not good at everything. At least in terms of pretending to be pitiful, she would never be as good as others.
Concubine Zhang did not really want to teach Li Chuchu a lesson at this time. Seeing this, she sighed and raised her hand to help her: "Get up, I know your filial piety."
Li Huang raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Yuxiao, who was completely stunned.
"Chu Chu, it was clear just now..."
Li Huang interrupted him: "Chu Chu didn't say anything just now. It was clearly the Third Emperor Brother himself who was guessing."
There was a bit of sarcasm in this tone.
Li Yuxiao glared at her angrily, and Li Huang raised his lips: "Did I say something wrong? This is not the first time that the Third Emperor has had such a misunderstanding since he was a child."
Li Yuxiao was stunned again and thought about it carefully. Every time Li Chuchu was half hidden and half exposed in front of him and hesitated to speak, he thought that Li Huang had bullied her.
Then he ignored everything and rushed forward to seek justice for her.
But now, being exposed by Li Huang in person, the look in his eyes towards Li Chuchu became uncertain.
Li Chuchu's hands hidden in her sleeves clenched tightly into fists!
What happened to this bitch? Why has he become so difficult to deal with since he fell into the water?
"Sister, eldest princess, Chu Chu knows that she is just a concubine and is not worthy of being called the third brother of King Lin'an, but I really don't want to steal my brother from you."
"Whether it is the crown prince brother or the King of Lin'an, they are all brothers from the same mother as you. No matter how they treat Chu Chu, they are still your brothers, right?"
She kept saying that she was a concubine, which made Li Yuxiao feel distressed.
"When did I treat you like a concubine?" He stretched out his hand to pull her up, "We are all the children of our father, how can we be close to each other? I will protect whoever is well-behaved and sensible."
In one sentence, it directly points to Li Huang's domineering and unlovable character.
Li Chuchu lowered her head, covering the flash of pride in her eyes.
Li Huang was not annoyed, and just added lightly: "I heard that many shops on the street are selling good things brought back by the Third Emperor Brother from the fiefdom. Didn't the Third Emperor Brother say that he was robbed before?"
She deliberately mentioned the batch of robbed goods, and Li Yuxiao's heart, which had softened a bit, suddenly felt like a basin of cold water had been poured on it, and it instantly became ice-cold to the bone.
That’s a lot of money!
Coupled with the news that those people came back to report, Li Yuxiao's eyes suddenly turned cold when looking at Li Chuchu.
He took two steps back, bowed his hands to Concubine Zhang and said, "If Concubine Zhang is fine, I will take my leave."
After saying that, he turned around and left without waiting for Concubine Zhang to nod.
It was so fast that even Li Chuchu didn't react.
"Third brother, why don't you wait for the doctor to reply?"
But where is Li Yuxiao's shadow outside Ci'an Palace?
Even if Li Chuchu died, she would never have thought that the batch of goods that Li Yuxiao lost had anything to do with her. Why did Li Yuxiao's face change when Li Huang mentioned that batch of goods?
She reluctantly returned to Concubine Zhang's bed and prepared to feed her soup.
Just when the spoon was about to be brought to Concubine Zhang's mouth, Li Huang suddenly reminded her with a kind-hearted look: "There are so many palace people here, so let them come, lest you get your hands filled with soup later and ask someone else later."
If you see it, you have to let others guess whether the concubine is treating you harshly."
After saying that, she didn't stay for a long time, bowed and left.
Concubine Zhang was originally in a much calmer mood, but when she was reminded like this, she suddenly remembered what Li Chuchu had done to her behind her back just now, and her face looked a little unsightly.
"The eldest princess is right. An old woman in this palace cannot afford the labor of the second princess."
"Taifei, I really didn't have it just now. It was the third brother..."
"Okay, I don't need you here anymore. You can go back first and let them come."
Concubine Zhang didn't want to listen to what she said anymore, so she interrupted her directly and called her personal maid over.
Li Chuchu stepped aside and called out again aggrievedly: "Toffee~"
Concubine Zhang took a sip of soup and her voice became a little softer: "I have been in the palace for most of my life. Don't treat me as a fool."
"It's not that I can't tolerate your tricks, but in front of me, you'd better be more content."
"Otherwise, wherever you mother and daughter come from, I can let you go back wherever you are."
Li Chuchu bit her lip and responded in a low voice: "Yes, Chu Chu has remembered it, then Chu Chu will go back first and see the concubine tomorrow."
As soon as he turned around, Li Chuchu's expression dropped, and his eyes were filled with sinisterness.
Li Huang, this bitch, really gives her a hard time!
She didn't believe it, she really let go of Gu Chenzhou so quickly!
Li Huang left the palace feeling refreshed. Unexpectedly, he saw Li Yuxiao at the entrance of the palace.
She raised her eyebrows: "Did Brother Sanhuang wait for me here specially?"
Li Yuxiao originally had a lot to say, but when they met, she didn't know what to say.
He opened his mouth and finally managed to say: "Did you do it on purpose just now?"
Li Huang sneered: "What did I do on purpose? Is it possible that you still want to say that if I hadn't caused her to be grounded in the palace, she wouldn't have done so many things, right?"
"I..." Li Yuxiao was speechless, "I didn't say that. Don't judge a gentleman with a villain's heart."
Li Huang sneered: "My villain's heart? Isn't this the usual logic of the three emperor brothers?"
Li Yuxiao choked up. Has he ever gone so far before?
But thinking back carefully, just now, when Li Chuchu showed the red mark of burns on the back of his hand, he did blame Li Huangsheng a bit.
"If Brother Three Emperors is fine, Li Huang will go back home first." Li Huang knew very well that things must turn against each other, so he didn't want to say anything more and got on his carriage.
Li Yuxiao took two steps forward and then stopped.
Because he really didn't know what else to say if he caught up.
It wasn't until the carriage of the eldest princess's master gradually disappeared that Xiao Haizi reminded him softly: "Your Highness, aren't we going back to the mansion?"
Li Yuxiao's face turned cold: "What house are you going back to? I heard that people have been fleeing to the capital one after another in the past few days."
"In order to restore their reputation, the Gu family built a porridge shed at the north city gate and gave porridge to the people who were fleeing every day?"
Xiao Haizi nodded: "Yes, it does happen."
Li Yuxiao sneered: "With my king's money, they spend it generously!"
