Consort Chen was expressing her longing for the Second Prince.
The second prince, however, was distracted.
He asked impatiently, "Where did you tie that woman up?"
Consort Chen was a little jealous and pouted, saying, "Does Your Highness care that much about that woman?"
Second Prince: "You risked everything to bring me here because of her? Do you know how dangerous this is?"
Consort Chen fiddled with the handkerchief in her hand and said, "What can I do? I just want to see the man I love. Are you going to take that woman as a concubine?"
Second Prince: "Sigh! That woman was one I intended to give to Father Emperor. Now that you've interfered, let's see how this ends up?"
Consort Chen's expression suddenly changed from sorrowful to joyful. She hugged the Second Prince and pressed her face against his.
Consort Chen: "I knew it, Your Highness, you only have me in your heart. You won't look for another woman. But, are you putting another pawn in the old man's game?"
Suddenly, a rustling sound of footsteps came from the nearby woods.
The second prince turned around warily: "Who?"
Consort Chen quickly loosened her grip on the Second Prince.
The second prince rushed nervously to the source of the sound.
The sixth prince was hiding behind a rock not far away, trembling with fear.
He had only intended to come out for some fresh air, and his personal eunuch was not allowed to come along.
The sixth prince, at such a young age, unexpectedly encountered such a situation, and he was at a loss.
The only solution he could think of was to run away.
But how could he, at such a young age, outrun his second brother, who was skilled in martial arts?
The second prince caught up with the sixth prince in just a few steps.
He grabbed the sixth prince.
Second Prince: "Sixth Brother, it's you!"
The sixth prince quickly covered his ears and said, "I didn't hear anything, I didn't see anything."
Second Prince: "Is that so?"
Consort Chen rushed over anxiously and asked, "What should we do? What should we do?"
The second prince looked at Consort Chen with a face full of anger.
Second Prince: "If it weren't for you, this wouldn't have happened. Now, I'll leave him to you to handle!"
Consort Chen's voice trembled: "But this is the Sixth Prince! I dare not kill him, and I cannot bring myself to do it."
The second prince glanced at the pond not far away and said, "Who said they wanted to kill him? Maybe he just accidentally fell into the water?"
Consort Chen nodded vigorously and said, "I understand!"
Consort Chen summoned two capable eunuchs and signaled them to drag the Sixth Prince into the pond.
The eunuch glanced at Consort Chen, then at the Second Prince, and then began to act.
The sixth prince was about to shout for help, but he was knocked unconscious by a stick from behind.
Then, two eunuchs dragged him to the edge of the pond and threw him into the water.
Qi Junxian carried his younger sister as they ran.
Where did the Sixth Prince go? I'm so worried! Oh, right, I remember now, he seems to be in the pond behind here.
Chirp pointed in the direction of the back garden.
Chirp: "Erguo, go over there! Quickly!"
Qi Junxian ran in the direction that Qiuqiu pointed out.
After dealing with the matter, the Second Prince and Consort Chen quickly left the scene.
Before leaving, the second prince didn't forget to drug the two eunuchs.
The two eunuchs died as soon as they left that place.
If we're talking about ruthlessness, the Second Prince is the most ruthless.
Consort Chen quickly went back to her room and released the woman who had just been tied up.
The second prince then sent someone to find a carriage and secretly took her out of the palace.
What was originally a perfectly good chess piece has been ruined by Consort Chen.
The second prince harbored resentment towards Consort Chen in his heart.
Afterwards, the two returned to the palace banquet one after the other, pretending that nothing had happened.
The sixth prince gradually sank into the pond. He couldn't swim and had already been knocked unconscious. If this continued, he would definitely lose his life.
Fortunately, Qi Junlin heard the news from Qiuqiu and immediately came out with the Sixth Prince.
However, he couldn't openly stop the Second Prince and Consort Chen from their actions.
After all, one was a prince and the other was the emperor's concubine. It would be very difficult for him to fight against both of them on his own.
After Qi Junlin saw them walk away, he immediately jumped into the water and pulled the sixth prince out of the water.
The sixth prince was already pale and barely breathing.
Chiu Chiu urged her second brother, "Second brother, hurry up, hurry up!"
Seeing that no one was around, Qi Junxian, in a hurry, used his lightness skill and flew to the side of the small pond in a few moments.
Chiu Chiu saw the Sixth Prince lying on the ground.
The older brother is giving him first aid.
Qi Junxian exclaimed in surprise, "Sixth Prince! Can he... can he still be saved?"
Chirp was also so anxious that it kept spinning around.
[The Sixth Prince looks very unwell. Could he really die? What should we do?]
[What should I do? I'm so worried! Right, my Divine Pavilion! There's a Resurrection Pill inside! But the second door to the Divine Pavilion is locked. What good is it even if I have it?]
Qi Junxian looked anxiously at the Sixth Prince: "Brother, what should we do? Should I go and call the imperial physician?"
Qi Junlin: "It's too late. Look how weak the Sixth Prince is, he's barely clinging to life. Even if the imperial physicians arrive, it will be too late."
Qi Junxian was on the verge of tears: "Big brother, please think of something! The Sixth Prince is so adorable, he can't be gone at such a young age!"
Qiuqiu was also sweating profusely with anxiety. She took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and entered the Divine Pavilion.
[My dear Divine Pavilion! You must help me! Saving lives is urgent, the Sixth Prince desperately needs my Resurrection Pill! Please open the door, I'll give you lots of delicious food later!]
Chirp walked straight into the main hall and then to the second door.
She murmured a prayer in her heart, then gently pushed the door open.
With a creak, the door was opened!
Chuchu was thrilled. She ran quickly to the second shelf, picked up a black pill from the box, and then ran out again.
Actually, there are quite a few good things on the second floor of the Divine Pavilion.
But once Qiuqiu got what she cared about most, she stopped paying attention to anything else.
Qi Junlin was still helping the Sixth Prince expel the water from his stomach.
But the sixth prince's face remained pale, and his hands gradually grew cold.
Qi Junlin sat on the ground in despair.
Qi Junxian looked anxiously at his elder brother and asked, "Brother, how is it?"
Qi Junlin: "I'm afraid... alas!"
Chuchu hurriedly brought a pill and stuffed it into the Sixth Prince's mouth.
[Sixth Prince, don't be afraid, Qiuqiu is here to save you!]
After taking the pill, the sixth prince coughed twice and spat out some water.
The eldest and second eldest brothers rushed over and said, "Sixth Prince, Sixth Prince, don't sleep, wake up!"
After coughing and spitting out a few more mouthfuls of water, the Sixth Prince slowly opened his eyes. He looked at Qiuqiu and said, "Did you save me?"
Chirp: "The big pot fished you out, the second pot carried me here."
The sixth prince looked at Qiuqiu's brother again and said, "Thank you, thank you all!"
Qi Junlin helped the Sixth Prince up and raised his body slightly to make him more comfortable.
Qi Junlin: "How are you feeling now?"
