Mammy picked up Chu Xiaoxiao and put her on the bed, patting her back and comforting her: "Child! You can sleep peacefully with Mammy here. No matter what happens, it has nothing to do with us. Go to sleep! Ah! Go to sleep!"
Chu Xiaoxiao: “…”
What if I say it's my business? Will you be scared, Mammy?
Prince Duan, who was lying next to his concubine, was suddenly awakened by a huge explosion. He didn't even have time to put on his shoes and ran out with his clothes on.
He was very familiar with this sound; he had heard it often after experimenting many times.
Could it be that something in the backyard suddenly exploded?
No way?
Don’t do that!
He had spent so much effort to create it. If it exploded, how would he carry out his next plan?
Li Sirui was very cunning. She alone prepared the core formula of the explosives, and no one could snoop on it. I used to think that she was my daughter, so she was in control of it.
Just now he knew that she was not his daughter, and he instantly understood her selfish intentions. No wonder she refused to reveal the core formula for making explosives. Was she on guard against him?
But she went to the palace to take care of the sick in his place. If she knew that her biological parents were dead, would she still help him come up with these things?
When we arrived at the place where the explosives were placed in the backyard, the original yard was gone and a huge deep pit was exposed on the ground.
Seeing this scene, Prince Duan collapsed to the ground helplessly, and the guards around him hurriedly lifted him up.
His personal followers followed the impostor, as did his other trusted followers, and few of them came back with him first, so the people who supported him were the guards who had stayed in the mansion before.
"Why is this happening? Why?"
Prince Duan burst into tears, more sad than when his own mother died. He had clearly followed Li Sirui's method for transportation and storage, so why did it spontaneously combust and explode?
If the emperor were to investigate what happened tonight, how would he explain it?
Fortunately, he came back without showing up. If the emperor knew that he had arrived in the capital early and brought something with such powerful lethality, he would definitely not let him go easily.
As soon as the dragon guard who followed Chu Xiaoxiao left the yard that she had set on fire, he heard a loud noise. If he hadn't held on to a tree tightly, he might have been shaken off the roof.
Seeing the baby being carried into the house by the nanny and sleeping, he quickly rushed towards the palace.
The emperor was also awakened by the terrible sound. He didn't know where the sound came from. He turned over and sat up from his dragon bed and called Eunuch Yuanbao: "Send someone to check what's going on?"
Eunuch Yuanbao left in response. A moment later, the dragon guard who followed Chu Xiaoxiao suddenly appeared and came to report, explaining the whole cause and effect of the matter.
Including Li Sirui's background and abilities.
The emperor almost dropped his jaw in shock. It turned out that the little ancestor's words had all come true. Prince Duan really made a bomb, a very powerful bomb. He also secretly brought it to the capital and hid it in Prince Duan's mansion.
The sound of the explosion was enough to split a mountain, and its power was immense.
If it is used to force abdication, no one can resist it.
Li Sirui cannot be kept, no matter if she is Prince Duan’s biological child or not, she must be killed.
This female demon will definitely be Dongsheng's strongest enemy in the future.
"Is Chu Xiaoxiao okay?" the emperor asked worriedly, "Is she okay?"
Dragon Guard responded: "Miss Chu is very good and brave. If it weren't for her, the weapons in Prince Duan's Mansion would never have been destroyed."
"I know that she was sent by God to protect me and Dongsheng. She is my lucky star. I hope she is fine. Don't mention anything about her to anyone."
"Yes, I understand." Long Wei knelt on one knee. "Miss Chu has a magical item, which is very magical. It can create flames out of thin air. I am really amazed."
The emperor smiled and said, "She was sent by God, so she has many extraordinary qualities. From now on, you should stay by her side and protect her. No matter what you see, don't be surprised. Go! Follow her well."
"Yes!" Long Wei turned around and disappeared.
The emperor walked around the room with his hands behind his back, feeling extremely happy.
Great! The little ancestor was really awesome and crushed the great conspiracy of Prince Duan. Without this batch of weapons, he would not have been so anxious to force the emperor to abdicate.
And that Li Sirui, she must die tonight. If Prince Duan comes back to ask him for her, will he give her to him or not?
It would be unacceptable not to give it, and giving it would be like letting a tiger return to the mountains.
"Someone come!"
Eunuch Yuanbao came in quickly and bowed to ask, "Your Majesty! I am here, what can I do for you?"
"Go to the Queen Mother's Palace and get rid of Li Sirui. Move quickly and find a suitable excuse so that no one can see any flaws."
"I obey your command! I will do it immediately."
Eunuch Yuanbao never neglected the emperor's order. He immediately bent down and stepped back to supervise the work personally.
Arriving at the door of the Queen Mother's bedroom, Eunuch Yuanbao called the nanny who had been stationed here for a long time and whispered a few words to her. The nanny understood, nodded, and walked into the bedroom.
Li Sirui has been "fulfilling his filial duties" and is exhausted.
Suddenly, a huge explosion was heard outside the palace. She was awakened, opened the palace door, went out to take a look, and also to get some fresh air.
The smell in the bedroom was so bad that she stayed here all day and felt dizzy from the suffocation.
She knew that Prince Duan's mansion had brought a batch of things and had kept them in the mansion. Prince Duan was personally guarding them, so how could they have been detonated?
These ancient people were so stupid. The storage method was explained to them over and over again, so why didn’t they learn it?
Was it half-exploded or all-exploded? When will that damn substitute arrive? Hurry up and get her out of the palace! She can’t stay here any longer.
I don’t know what the Queen Mother ate. She has to defecate several times a day, and it’s always watery. It’s so disgusting.
She eats a lot, and despite all the diarrhea, she doesn't seem to lose weight.
If it were her, she would definitely not feed her so much, eat less, and poop less. But she knew the rules of the palace and did not dare to speak out her thoughts.
If she dared to speak out, she would be punished and maybe even beheaded.
After standing at the palace gate and watching for a while, she saw the nanny coming in. She didn't dare to look anymore and stepped aside to go into the bedroom.
The nanny went to check under the empress dowager's body and found another pool of foul-smelling, thin, yellow liquid. Her face immediately became gloomy.
When she saw several pinch marks on the queen mother's legs, she sneered. She didn't even need to make an excuse, the evidence was already in her hands.
"How dare you abuse the Queen Mother? She is your royal grandmother."
There was a flash of panic in Li Sirui's eyes. He pinched the empress dowager's thigh to test whether she had any feeling in her leg, but he didn't expect to be discovered.
She immediately said, "Mammy! I just wanted to test whether the Empress Dowager has any feeling in her legs. I have no intention of abusing her."
"Hmph!" The nanny grabbed her hand and pointed at the purple pinch marks on the empress dowager's leg. "Whether you feel it or not is not something you, a mere concubine of Prince Duan's mansion, can do casually. That is the business of the imperial physician.
Since you dared to do that, it was abuse and it was insubordination. People like you who have no respect for elders must be severely punished."
