Chapter 266 Staying in Chengning Palace

Qin Baolin was anxious to take her back to the palace, and his hands became stronger.

The third prince's hand was in great pain, so he followed him into the hall. After his hand was released, the torture finally ended.

The third prince blew air into his palm while looking around the hall.

I felt increasingly uneasy.

If the Empress Dowager knew how bad he was, she would probably let him out.

The third prince was lost in thought.

After Qin Baolin released him, he walked to the couch, tugged at Queen Mother Qin's skirt and said, "I picked up a child, he looks like Zhou Zhou."

Queen Mother Qin was taking a nap and woke up when she pulled her.

She thought Qin Baolin wanted to play with Xiao Si, so she laughed and said, "What Zhou Zhou? He's in school right now. Another day..."

As she spoke, she followed Qin Baolin's gaze and suddenly stopped talking, "Yu Shi?"

Only then did she realize what Qin Baolin meant by those words just now. It turned out that he was not looking for Zhou Zhou, but was like Zhou Zhou.

After she understood, she couldn't help but laugh. How could they not look alike? They are brothers.

The Third Prince followed his memory and kowtowed to her, "Grandmother."

Queen Mother Qin asked with a smile, "Aren't you going to school today? Why are you here, Grandmother?"

The third prince pursed his lips and didn't dare to answer.

The panic on his face could not be hidden from Queen Mother Qin. She immediately gave a look to Nanny Meng and asked her to go out and inquire.

Qin Baolin remembered what he had promised, took a piece of milk cake, walked to the third prince, and placed the cake in his palm, "Eat cake, eat sweet, be happy~"

The Third Prince said softly: "Thank you... Thank you..."

Queen Mother Qin was watching this scene with a smile, but when her eyes fell on the Third Prince's hand, she suddenly stopped smiling, "Yushi, what's wrong with your palm?"

The Third Prince suddenly retracted his hand, shook his head and said, "It's okay... It's okay..."

Queen Mother Qin frowned and beckoned, "Come here, let the Empress Dowager take a look."

The third prince stepped forward as instructed.

Queen Mother Qin held his hand and only then realized how serious the situation was. "How did it get like this? Does it hurt?"

This was the first person who showed concern for him since he was beaten. The Third Prince burst into tears and sobbed, "Yushi...blow...blow...it will...it won't hurt anymore."

Queen Mother Qin quickly asked the palace maid to bring ointment.

While I was applying medicine to him, I suddenly noticed bruises on his wrist.

Queen Mother Qin's pupils shrank. She lifted up his sleeve and found that there was also a wound on his arm.

Queen Mother Qin's face darkened completely. She took him into the bedroom and undressed him.

When she saw the dense wounds on his fair skin, she was really angry.

She asked the palace servants to apply medicine to the third prince. She couldn't bear to watch any longer, so she went to the outer hall to wait for Nanny Meng to come.

What happened today spread throughout the palace and was easy to find out. Nanny Meng came back soon and told Queen Dowager Qin everything in detail.

After listening, Queen Mother Qin frowned and asked, "How is Ah Xun? Where is Yu Zhou?"

Nanny Meng reported back, "His Royal Highness is unconscious and hasn't regained consciousness yet, but the Imperial Physician says he's fine. I heard the Prince and Princess have arrived at the palace. As for the Fourth Prince, I heard he's injured and has bruises all over his body."

When Queen Mother Qin heard about this, she was almost heartbroken.

She had raised Xiao Si for a period of time since he was young. He was obedient and well-behaved. Even now, he would often pay his respects to her. Among these imperial grandchildren, she loved Xiao Si the most. Now, hearing that he was injured, she felt uncomfortable.

But the one causing the trouble was the young master of Duke Li's mansion. Thinking of the old relationship with Queen Li, Queen Dowager Qin could not help but suppress her anger even though she was angry.

She was just angry and said, "This child is too spoiled. He hit me without restraint. He even dared to hit the prince. How brave he is."

Nanny Meng echoed, "Fortunately, the Emperor has revoked their status as study companions."

Queen Mother Qin nodded: "It can be considered a severe lesson."

After being expelled from the palace, I am afraid that in the future, except for the Li family, other noble families will avoid him.

At least when he grows up, he will not be able to inherit the title, and it will be difficult for him to get married.

But thinking of what Nanny Meng said about the emperor's punishment, Queen Mother Qin frowned again and said, "The emperor is also injured. Yu Shi is also injured. He has been in poor health since he was a child. Just teach him a lesson and let him correct his mistakes. How can he withstand two hundred strokes of the ruler at once when he is so young!"

Nanny Meng laughed and said, "The Empress Dowager is being soft-hearted. The Emperor is a strict father, so he can teach the prince well. And the Emperor knew what he was doing. He only punished him with a ruler. The pain in his hand will only last for a few days and it won't be considered a serious injury."

Queen Mother Qin sighed, "Alas, I know. But this child is so pitiful. His father doesn't care much for him, and his biological mother doesn't love him. He was beaten so many times, and there was not even a place to apply medicine. Yan'er brought him back, and he is no different from a stray puppy."

Nanny Meng also sighed, "Speaking of which, Concubine Li is under house arrest. The Third Prince is so young, and if he is suddenly moved to the prince's residence, I'm afraid he will suffer some injustice again."

No one can bear to be suddenly separated from their biological mother.

You know, the first two princes were accustomed to sleeping after their mothers coaxed them to sleep for many days.

What's more, the third prince is so young, it's really pitiful.

Queen Mother Qin looked worried. "Forget it, forget it. I am his grandmother, how can I ignore him? Go and tell the emperor that I will keep Yu Shi for a few days. When his injuries are healed, I will move him to the prince's residence."

Madam Meng responded in a gentle voice, "I understand."

After the master and servant had discussed it, the third prince applied the medicine, changed his clothes and came out.

Queen Mother Qin smiled and hugged him in her arms, "Yushi, I'm feeling lonely. Would you like to stay with me for a few days?"

The third prince could hardly believe his ears.

Queen Mother Qin asked again, "Is it good?"

The third prince's dark eyes turned red and he nodded heavily.

Someone wants him.

The royal grandmother wants him.

at the same time.

A side hall of Chengning Palace.

As Xie Chen was discussing the outcome with Pei Tingyue, a palace attendant suddenly announced, "Prince Xuan is here! The princess is here!"

The emperor and his concubine looked at each other and looked towards the door of the bedroom.

There was a sound of hurried footsteps, and then King Xuan and his wife came in.

The two were about to greet each other, but Xie Chen stopped them, "Go see Ah Xun."

Prince Xuan and his wife gathered around the couch with anxious expressions. Princess Xuan's eyes were red, obviously having just cried. She held Xie Xun's small hand, "Ah Xun? Ah Xun?"

Xie Xun had woken up once earlier. He opened his eyes again, and it took him a long time to clearly see the figures in front of him. "Father, Mother."

I really wanted to beat him when he was naughty, but now he looks so weak, it really hurts to see him.

Princess Xuan's heart was about to break. She asked with trembling lips, "Mother is here, are you afraid?"

Xie Xun blinked, remembering what happened before.

The next moment, he was struggling to get up.

Princess Xuan hurried over to help him up: "What are you doing?

Xie Xun clenched his fists and said angrily, "What about Li Che? He's so pissed off that he actually threw an inkstone at me. I'm going to throw it back!"

Seeing him like this, Princess Xuan forced herself to hold back her tears, and then she pushed him down again, saying unhappily, "Since you're injured, just behave yourself!"

Xie Xun bared his teeth and claws: "I don't accept it!"

Pei Tingyue said at the right moment, "Ah Xun, your uncle the emperor took revenge on your behalf. He gave him two hundred lashes of the ruler and expelled him from the palace."

Xie Xun was now satisfied, but he still wanted to confirm it again, "Really?"

He was in a good mood and looked around before realizing where he was.

He was secretly delighted in his heart, thinking that getting injured was not a bad thing, as he would fulfill his wish tonight!

He shamelessly wants to stay here and shamelessly wants Empress Chen to hold him while he sleeps!
