Concubine De stepped forward slowly, and Empress Chu said worriedly: "Concubine De, be careful."
Concubine De remained silent, only looking at the hairpin on Yu Wenling's neck, fearing that Concubine Xian would be irritated and she would prick it out regardless.
She was a bit arrogant, thinking that if the princess came out later, she could quickly counterattack the virtuous concubine, so she slowly moved over, stretched out her hands and pressed down, "I'm here, let go of the princess.
"
"Climb over here!"
How come Concubine Xian doesn’t know what she’s thinking?
Concubine De was very agile with her hands and feet. If she wasn't kneeling on the ground, wouldn't it be easy for her to restrain her?
Concubine De was so angry that her eyes were red. No one could humiliate people better than Concubine Xian.
But I couldn't irritate her right now, so I could only slowly lie down with my legs bent and move over.
The imperial guard wanted to take a step closer, but Concubine Xian rebuked him angrily.
Empress Chu and the concubines watched with fear. Concubine De was still very popular, and since she had no children, no one expected anything to happen to her.
When did something like this happen in the palace?
I can't even imagine that a concubine could kidnap a princess in the palace, and her own daughter could be kidnapped.
Concubine De crawled over and said softly: "Okay, you can let go of the princess."
Concubine Xian smiled sinisterly, and slowly raised her hand to take away the hairpin that was pierced on Yu Wenling's neck. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Empress Chu was about to ask the princess to come back quickly, but Concubine Xian suddenly scratched her head with the hairpin.
On the concubine’s forehead.
It was a fierce force. He held the hairpin in his hand and slashed hard across De Concubine's forehead. Blood spattered and then he kicked De Concubine on the top of her head, knocking De Concubine down the stone steps.
And she could quickly grab Yu Wenling's hair back and continue to press him to the ground.
Everyone exclaimed, and someone rushed over to help Concubine De, who was bleeding all over her face and almost fainted.
Empress Chu was so angry that she trembled all over, "Concubine Xian, are you really crazy?"
Concubine Xian was not crazy. She called Concubine De over just to vent her anger.
Just because she is not crazy, she is not willing to let Concubine De exchange with Yu Wenling. The emperor may not issue a decree to favor the Su family because of Concubine De. Concubine De has no children in the harem and is not an important person. How could the emperor suffer for her?
What about grievances?
But Ling'er is different. Now he is eager to promote the economy, win over businessmen, and has settled his marriage with the Leng family, so he will not lose big because of small things.
For the sake of national affairs and the world, he can endure any grievance.
Yu Wenling cried hysterically, "Concubine Mother, don't do this. Do you want to kill Concubine De?"
She only saw the blood on Concubine De's face and thought that Concubine De was going to die, so she cried until she became hoarse.
"Call your Majesty and Yuan Qing to come, otherwise, I would rather break the jade into pieces today than make a complete mess."
Concubine Xian said harshly.
Empress Chu and the imperial concubine looked solemn. If something like this happened today, the two of them, one in charge of the Sixth Palace and the other as an assistant, would have to be punished severely.
But if the emperor and the princess don't come now, I'm afraid it won't be over.
Empress Chu had no choice but to send someone to invite Emperor Ming Yuan again.
When Eunuch Mu Ru heard what had happened, he was frightened. He thought about going in to report the matter, but as soon as he knocked on the door, Emperor Ming Yuan angrily told him to get out.
Emperor Ming Yuan summoned the most important ministers in the court and the royal family's elders today to discuss whether to depose the crown prince. Fortunately for the ministers, almost all of the royal family, except Prince Rui, suggested deposing the crown prince.
When he was irritable, Eunuch Mu Ru came to disturb him, so he naturally had to spread his anger.
Eunuch Mu Ru was so frightened that he hurriedly retreated. For the emperor, today's big things are not as important as the prince's affairs. Tomorrow is the morning of the court. If there is no consensus with the emperor and ministers today, there will be no one in the court tomorrow.
Great dispute.
Over at the Prince of Chu's Mansion, Man'er came to report to Yuan Qing Ling that the Concubine Xian was causing trouble in the palace and had kidnapped the princess.
Yuan Qingling immediately went out to meet the people in the palace. After asking about the situation, he told Man'er, "Don't tell the prince in advance. Ah Si and I will go to the palace."
Ah Si had just returned from the Yuan family's New Year celebrations today, and she was very nervous when she encountered this incident.
However, Ah Si felt that the matter was serious and should be informed to the prince. Yuan Qingling shook her head and said, "No need. He is talking to Fourth Master in the study, so just let him be quiet."
If Lao Wu knew about this, I'm afraid it would be even more chaotic if he entered the palace.
She knew what Concubine Xian wanted to do.
She quickly changed her clothes and went out, telling Man'er that if the prince asked her where she was going, she would say she was back at Jinghou Mansion to visit her grandmother.
While she was in the car, she opened the medicine box and prepared the anesthetic.
This is a short-acting intravenous anesthetic, which is mostly used for abortion. It takes five seconds to anesthetize, and five to eight minutes to wake up, which is enough time.
Put the needle in the plastic cover and hide it in the sleeve pocket. She probably knows what Concubine Xian is going to do.
Concubine Xian knew that her death was imminent, and with her temperament of protecting the Su family, she would fight to the death to seek grace for the Su family. At the same time, Concubine Xian hated her very much, and she hated her so much. How could she not deal with her before she died?
That's why Yu Wenling was held hostage and asked to enter the palace.
A person who is not afraid of death is very scary.
After the carriage entered the palace, it went straight to Qingyu Palace. When it reached the Second Palace Gate, the carriage was not allowed to enter, so she got off the carriage and ran quickly.
Before arriving at Qingyu Palace, she asked Ah Si to climb over the wall from behind and wait for an opportunity. If necessary, she let her fall in front of Concubine Xian.
Before she entered the palace, she straightened her clothes and took a deep breath. Yu Wenling's hoarse cry sounded in her ears, and her voice was already very weak.
When they entered the courtyard, Empress Chu and the imperial concubine breathed a sigh of relief when they saw her coming, and said in unison: "The Crown Princess is here!"
Yuan Qingling didn't care about the courtesy. Seeing that Concubine De was injured, she looked up the stone steps. When she saw this, she couldn't help but gasp.
Concubine Xian was sitting on the upper level of the stone steps with her hair disheveled. Yu Wenling was lying on the stone steps with her head down. Concubine Xian grabbed her bun with one hand and put a hairpin against her neck with the other. This posture seemed to be
It lasted for a long time, so both of them looked like stone sculptures.
The weather was very cold, and the stone steps were covered with white frost. Yuan Qingling looked at the formation. The two of them had been like this for at least an hour.
When Concubine Xian saw her coming, her cold face finally slowly came to life, and her eyes showed hatred.
"Mother concubine!"
Yuan Qingling saw that her only weapon was the hairpin, she pressed her sleeve pocket to make sure that the needle could be taken out smoothly, then she took a step forward and said, "You want to see me, now I'm here, you can let go of Ling'er.
"
Concubine Xian looked at her, and the hatred swept over her entire face, which looked twisted and ferocious. She gritted her teeth and said, "Well done, well done!"
Yuan Qing Ling said: "Yes, I'm here."
Concubine De called out, "Prince Princess, be careful."
"Get over here!"
Concubine Xian roared angrily, as if the strength she had just lost had returned, and she looked full of fighting spirit.
Yuan Qing Ling said: "The person you hate is me, why bother your own daughter?"
"Why are you pretending to be a good person?"
Concubine Xian sneered, "If you really want to save her, then commit suicide in front of me, and I will take you to hell with me."
Yuan Qingling walked slowly, not letting herself stop, but kept staring at the hairpin in Concubine Xian's hand. The hairpin sank into her skin due to her arrival. This hairpin was very sharp, and ordinary hairpins were not so sharp.
, it seems that Concubine Xian was already prepared to cause another big fuss.
"I'm not a good person. Although I feel sorry for the princess, I won't trade my own life for the princess's. You, the mother, are going to hurt her. What else can I, the sister-in-law, do?"
