Chapter 16 Killing the mother and keeping the child
Chapter 16 Killing Mother to Protect Son
He Yanyan dragged her body covered with injuries, picked some herbs in the forest and applied them to her face, then bandaged them with rags before arriving at the gate of the palace.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw people from all over the palace gathered around——
Except for Bian Xiao, wet nurse and Ye Siying, everyone else is waiting to see a good show.
Everyone knows that it was the nanny who bullied the princess when Bian Xiao was away. But now that the prince is back, will he turn against the nanny or the princess?
Bian Xiao quietly looked at the cheek with half of his face facing the red cloth, feeling an indescribable guilt in his heart. He turned his head away from looking at He Yanyan's colorful pupils:
"Why does the princess look like this? Where did you go when the king was not at home!"
He Yanyan glanced at the wet nurse, who ducked aside in a panic, and then looked at Ye Siying, who did not dare to look at He Yanyan.
After taking a deep breath, He Yanyan just said lightly: "I... heard that the prince was injured, and wanted to go to the front line in a hurry, but when he was taking a rest in a wooden house in the forest on the road, he was set on fire by the gangsters, and his face was burned."
Bian Xiao, the "bad guy", naturally knew that He Yanyan was lying——
After all, he had come to the palace before, masked, to visit his pregnant wife.
But why is He Yanyan unwilling to tell the truth to herself?
It's like this palace obviously belongs to you, but no one dares to tell the truth to you!
Bian Xiao nodded and asked Zhi Xin to serve: "Take good care of the princess. Today is a day worth remembering. In the evening, the palace will hold a banquet to congratulate her."
"yes!"
Bian Xiao and He Yanyan walked in two directions and returned to their respective rooms.
The nanny grabbed Ye Siying and felt very panicked: "Yingying, if the princess tells the truth to the king, then we..."
Ye Siying frowned, but there was still a trace of luck in her heart: "The king has never been interested in the princess, and what she said... I don't think he would believe it."
The wet nurse still felt unreliable: "But now that the princess is pregnant, the king will definitely take good care of the princess."
Ye Siying nodded——
Indeed, children are a big problem.
When the king comes back, he and his mother will not be able to take over the entire palace to themselves.
And if He Yanyan really gave birth to the child, then she would no longer be the mistress of the palace.
After taking a deep breath, Ye Siying asked tentatively, "The king probably doesn't know that the princess is pregnant yet, right?"
The wet nurse nodded.
"Then why don't we..." Ye Yingying swallowed her saliva and said with a guilty conscience, "Let her not give birth!"
The wet nurse felt that something was wrong: "It's okay to kill the mother to protect the child. After all, it is the king's child. But if you kill the child too..."
"Mother!" Ye Siying was already dazzled by power and wealth, "I will have this child in the future. Maybe I can be pregnant with the prince's child! It's unknown whose child a woman like He Yanyan is pregnant with.
It’s better to remove it as soon as possible!”
The wet nurse was a little moved, but a little afraid.
Ye Siying looked at the nanny's shrinking look and stamped her feet: "If mother doesn't want to, then Yingying will do it herself!"
Zhixin served He Yanyan while she bathed and changed clothes. She looked at the scars on the woman's legs and the shocking scars on her face, and felt a burst of sadness in her heart:
"Princess...now that the king has returned, it would be better to tell the king directly what the nanny did to you."
He Yanyan was a little undecided——
Who am I in the heart of the king?
She shook her head: "Help me get these medicines."
Seeing the princess's reticent look, Zhi Xin felt guilty and hurriedly went to the pharmacy to get medicine.
When she came out of the bathtub, the water originally filled with rose petals had been dyed red by the blood on her body.
Sitting in front of the bronze mirror, she looked at the pitted scars on her face, and took out the secret Qianglan medicine from the drawer——
This medicine can make rotten meat grow new meat in less than three days, and rotten corpses can also have new skins. It is a forbidden medicine.
With her hands trembling a little, He Yanyan held a knife in one hand, preparing to cut out the rotten flesh on her face and then apply medicine.
He Yanyan has already been put into a coffin once, so what is there to be afraid of?
At this moment, He Yanyan's door was suddenly pushed open.
She quickly put the medicine in the drawer and hid the knife she just held in her sleeve: "Miss Ye?"
After Ye Siying came in, she closed the door and smiled with a smile on her face: "I really want to congratulate the princess for surviving the catastrophe. I didn't expect your life to be so tough!"
He Yanyan's lips raised: "It seems that Miss Ye is not as happy as she said."
After taking the medicinal bath, her whole body felt much more relaxed. He Yanyan stood up holding on to the table and channeled her internal energy to her legs to stop the waves of pain.
Ye Siying said as she approached: "Princess, do you think the king will support you when he comes back? Stop daydreaming!"
"..."
"Not to mention that Wang and I have known each other for a longer time, but your current face alone makes people sick. I'm afraid Wang won't even look at you now!"
After Ye Siying walked in, He Yanyan suddenly showed a strange smile, and then took out the sharp blade in her hand.
"What are you going to do!"
Ye Siying was frightened and took a step back, but He Yanyan pressed forward step by step, took out a knife and slashed her face, and cut out the rotten people on it:
"Miss Ye made a good plan, but it's a pity that the title of a princess seems to have made you forget. The reason why this princess was once appointed as the crown prince was because of her cruel heart and cruel hands."
"..."
"The tiger showed weakness, but the monkey thought he was really strong?"
When the meat was cut off and thrown to the ground, He Yanyan took Ye Siying's hand that was about to escape, put the dagger into her hand, then opened the door herself, and suddenly cried:
"Wang! Help! Miss Ye...Miss Ye is going to kill someone!"
Ye Siying was startled, took a few steps back and dropped the knife in her hand: "No...I don't..."
At this time, Bian Xiao, who was adding a few more medicines to Zhi Xin's hand in the pharmacy, looked sad, and there were obvious signs of crying in the corners of Zhi Xin's eyes.
When the two heard the shouts coming from outside the door, they hurried over.
Bian Xiao saw He Yanyan falling to the ground at a glance, and hurried over to help her up, glaring at Ye Siying with hawk eyes:
"Yingying! What are you doing!"
He Yanyan lay weakly in Bian Xiao's arms. She looked in the direction of Ye Siying, raised the corners of her lips, and then pulled the man's collar: "Wang... I feel so much pain..."
She was already blaming herself for setting fire to He Yanyan's face, but now that she saw her face being slashed to pieces by Ye Siying with a knife, she was even more angry:
"Come here, take Ye Siying to the woodshed and take her to the woodshed. She will be taken care of according to the family law!"
"Wang! Wang, I don't have it, Wang!" Ye Siying called from behind, but Bian Xiao ignored her at all.
He carried He Yanyan to the dormitory with a worried look on his face: "I will go and invite the doctor, the princess will wait a moment."
He Yanyan didn't expect that Bian Xiao would choose herself between Ye Siying and herself. Watching Bian Xiao leave, she stood up and took out the powder. When she was about to apply it on her face, a hand appeared on her cheek.
