The Beloved Imperial Consort - Chapter 431

[431. Chapter 431 Chen Qing]

“Since you said that you need to meet me, why did you stand in front of this palace without making a sound when you entered the room?” Mu Xiyao secretly delighted with the eight-treasure jade bracelet newly rewarded by the emperor in her hand.

No, the big fish bit the hook.

Seeing that your mistress didn’t panic, didn’t care, didn’t inquire, Madam Gao made up her mind and slowly told the story of the emperor’s assassination.

“At that time, the emperor was only the sixth His Royal Highness. The Weiyang County Lord was bullied many times by the palace staff. Once he was caught by His Highness, he took action and punished the black-hearted servant. Perhaps too few people cared about it, and the old ancestor was very majestic. If I can, the county master is only a girl, so naturally he is closer to His Highness. After that, even if His Highness has a cold face, the county master sneaks into the prince’s place every day to practice martial arts and swordsmanship.”

“Everyone in the palace said it was three The princess kindly protects the county lord, but she does not know that your highness and the county lord got acquainted earlier. The three princesses actually have the heart to befriend the county lord, and they took care of the county lord in the study just now.”

“Later, His Highness went to school, not only was he outstanding in literature and history, but also He is also very talented in rhythm chess shooting. The county master knows that there is a unique chess book in His Royal Highness’s study, so he will go to the prince’s office from time to time and borrow it back to Weiyang Palace to look it up. He also plays two games with His Highness every month. I will definitely take a piece of paper and write it down. Your Highness sees her sincerity, so she is patient, and occasionally gives some pointers.”

Mu Xiyao’s beautiful eyes blinked twice, holding her chin, when she wondered if Zong Zhenglin was patient too? Why does the big boss play against her, always disgusting and disliking her?

“After nearly a year, His Highness ignored him from the beginning, and gradually became accustomed to following people behind him. When the sun is good and the time is free, the county master will pull the third princess, and the two will go to the prince’s place to play together. Take the time to observe His Highness’s riding and shooting.”

There is still such a paragraph. Mu Yaonu kept it in her mind, and decided to use this as an excuse in the future to ask for more benefits for herself.

“On that day, the emperor and noble concubine held a banquet, and the late emperor came in person, and the concubines and concubines of the harem tried their best to compete for favor with the imperial court. After the study, His Royal Highness brought his valet back to the prince’s writing as usual. The county master who was at the door early in the morning followed the study room with a smile.”

As if sighing, Mammy Gao shook her head. “At that time, the county master used His Royal Highness’s manuscripts for his writing. If he hadn’t been able to handle his wrists later, the county master should have been able to write well. It’s a pity.”

What a pity? Mu Yaonu scoffed at this. Although Zong Zhenglin’s calligraphy is good, he is not as good as the famous masters of all dynasties. It was the man who forced her to practice mad grass before, and she also picked Yu Zhenqing’s post to copy. Emperor Jian’an’s handwriting is too powerful and aggressive. Mu Xiyao disliked it.

Fortunately, although Lord Boss saw the meaning in her eyes, the man had a good mind and did not trouble her.

Aware that she was distracted, Mammy Gao coughed twice, and when Mu Xiyao stiffened her back in embarrassment, she just opened her face and spoke down.

“The emperor didn’t stay for a long time at the flower viewing banquet, and asked the concubine Shangshu to go to the prince’s place to visit his highness. After entering the room, he saw that his highness and the county master were sitting on the book table. Since I won the emperor’s award.”

“I asked the two to rest for a while, and they did their homework. The emperor was satisfied to take them away. In addition, the concubine Shu was allowed to stay and have lunch with His Royal Highness.” The

prince in the palace rules . Mu Xiyao heard something. Without the emperor’s consent, the concubine was not allowed to visit the prince privately, and she was not allowed to stay for a long time to delay the prince’s studies.

However, when this rule met the obsession of the demon girl, it was obviously relaxed by Emperor Jian’an. Chengqing Chengyou, who was the prince, had never lived for a day at all, but the two of them went to the study and went to school without hindrance, and they never slacked off.

“The person who carried out the assassination on that day was originally the maid of the guard who was bought. The two disguised themselves as the eunuch and the maid of the prince’s house and entered the residence of His Highness. Unexpectedly, Concubine Shu was also present. It was knocked over. There was such a commotion all of a sudden, Concubine Shu felt that this person was jealous, so she asked her to come forward and ask questions. Who knows that this way, she made the person who had evil intentions thought she had been seen. When there was a flaw, the guard suddenly burst into flames and rushed towards His Highness.” With her

eyes wide open, Mu Xiyao knew only today that Concubine Shu was also present in the assassination.

“Master Wei was only a little older than His Royal Highness at that time, but he was loyal and took a few steps forward to protect His Highness behind him. Unfortunately, he was not as big and tall as that bodyguard, and was backhanded by the other party. The palm stunned me.”

“Seeing that the knife was about to fall on His Highness’s head, at the critical moment, it was the Weiyang County Lord who panicked and slapped the blade hard. But a five-year-old girl, where did you get your head. Although I blocked the knife for His Highness, my right hand slammed into the edge of the knife.”

“The knife was fast and ruthless, even if it saw blood. Fortunately, it was only sent by the county master himself, but it was wiped from the side. Otherwise, the whole right hand will not be able to be kept.”

Mu Xiyao frowned for the first time since Mammy Gao started to talk about the old incident. It was Wei Yang who actually blocked the knife for him, no wonder Zong Zhenglin treated her differently.

“If this palace remembers correctly, His Highness was already practicing martial arts at that time. Since Concubine Shu is still there, why is there no one to help me?”

Mammy Gao looked solemn and hesitated for a while, but finally she didn’t hide it. “There aren’t many people serving in the palace. Concubine Shu was left with only Mother Chen. Mother Chen was helping her to dodge backwards in a hurry. The maids and eunuchs who served the dishes before were so frightened that they lost their souls and panicked. Get out.” The

room suddenly became quiet. Mu Xiyao was dumbfounded, staring at Mammy Gao for a long time without saying a word.

“Although His Royal Highness is skilled in martial arts, he is too young. While drawing his sword to resist, he has to be distracted and worried about the fallen Princess Weiyang and the concubine Shu who is being supported behind him. No matter how talented he is, he can’t support it. He was forced to step back by the thieves, and when he was dodging, he had no intention of guarding against the people around him.”

“The palace maid who came in earlier shouted like a madman, raised a knife and rushed towards His Highness. It was the knife that hurt His Highness extremely. If the guards hadn’t arrived at that time, His Highness is afraid…”

Mammy Gao bowed her head slightly, and there was still fear in her eyes.

Was Zong Zhenglin injured by that palace maid? Under the shock of Mu Xiyao, she gradually felt that something was wrong.

Concubine Shu and Wei Yang sat next to Zong Zhenglin. Wei Yang was injured and fell to the ground, and there should be Concubine Shu behind her. Even the two masters and servants stopped him a little at that time, but she was a palace maid who looked fierce and did not know martial arts at all, so she would not be able to make a sneak attack.

Seeing Grandma Gao hesitate to speak, Mu Xiyao’s heart sank.

Concubine Shu, at the juncture of life and death, she only cared about herself?

Both of them in the room understood that this matter, how could the Sixth Highness, who had already remembered it in his heart, not mind it at all.

“His Royal Highness, in addition to recuperating and visiting the county master, kept himself locked in the bedroom for half a month and never saw anyone again. Even if Concubine Shu knelt down and begged for the imperial decree and visited the prince twice a day, it was not possible for His Highness to come out to see her. In the end, the emperor came and took His Highness to the study room and talked for a whole afternoon. After that day, His Highness went to study in the study room again. It’s just that people are a bit colder than before.”

Mu Xiyao lowered her eyes and pondered for a long time. When he raised his eyes again, he went straight in, tightly locking the face of Mammy Gao. “The Weiyang County Lord sacrificed himself to block a knife for His Highness. This is a great achievement. Why was the emperor sent to Yangzhou by the emperor?”
