Chapter 667: Concubine Yu is careful with her words
“It’s said that Prince Jin treats Song Yanxi like the apple of his eye, and treasures her immensely.
At first I thought it was just some ignorant people talking nonsense, but I never thought it was true."
Concubine Yu covered her lips with a handkerchief and laughed so hard that her body shook.
Facing Mo Jinchuan's cold eyes, she sneered and said, "Look at you, kid, you look so cold the moment you see me.
If you don't know, you might think I owe you a lot of money, and you can hardly even smile."
After she finished speaking, the nanny behind her laughed and said, "Your Majesty, please don't make fun of His Royal Highness Prince Jin. His Royal Highness has always had this kind of temper. You are no stranger to it."
Imperial Concubine Yu glared at her and snorted coldly, "Old bastards like you are everywhere. Prince Jin hasn't even spoken yet, so how can a servant like you be so presumptuous?"
The nanny quickly apologized, "Your Highness, please calm down. It was I who spoke too much. I deserve to be punished."
As she spoke, she raised her hand and slapped him hard in the face.
Every slap left a bright red handprint.
The crisp sound of the applause made the atmosphere around them even more depressing.
Concubine Yu raised her eyebrows and said impatiently, "Shut up! Go away and fight."
The nanny responded, stood up from the ground tremblingly, turned around and was about to leave.
Mo Jinchuan asked in a cold voice, "The Emperor is still ill. Does the Imperial Concubine really want to punish the servants in the Emperor's bedroom at this time?"
Imperial Concubine Yu's expression changed slightly, a hint of anger flashed in her eyes as she said, "Your Highness Prince Jin has stretched his hands so far that he even wants to control the people around me."
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the people around them changed.
Especially the palace maids in Concubine Yu's palace, all of them had ugly expressions, lowered their heads and wished they could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
They knew very well that if their master got angry outside, they, who served him, would certainly not be treated well when they returned.
At the very least, they would be scolded; at the worst, they would suffer physical pain. It was common for them to be beaten and then starved for three days and three nights.
Seeing the frightened reactions of the group, Mo Jinchuan said coldly: "This is my father's bedroom. If Concubine Yu wants to punish the servant, just take her back to your own Xiaguang Palace.
If we disturb the emperor, no one will be able to bear the consequences."
Imperial Concubine Yu's face suddenly darkened. "Are you threatening me?"
Mo Jinchuan said calmly, "I dare not."
"Don't dare?" Imperial Concubine Yu couldn't help but sneer, her eyes as sharp as arrows. "You can even do something as unscrupulous as murdering your own brother. What else would you not dare to do?"
Mo Jinchuan said coldly: "Empress Yu, please be careful with your words."
Concubine Yu frowned, "Why, you dare to do it but you are afraid of what others will say?
You have killed countless people, can you still sleep peacefully in the middle of the night?"
As if she had thought of something, her eyes reddened and she gritted her teeth and said, "I was too stupid to believe in your so-called brotherly love.
If you had any humanity, you wouldn't have…"
De Hai hurried over and interrupted her with a serious expression, saying, "Your Highness, please be careful with your words."
Seeing that it was him, Concubine Yu became even more angry.
She smiled coldly and said sarcastically, "Eunuch De is truly loyal to His Majesty."
Knowing that she was calling him an obedient dog, Dehai did not get angry but laughed and said, "Your Highness, your words are truly embarrassing to me.
As an old servant serving before the Emperor, I naturally obey His Majesty's orders in every word and action."
What he meant was that today's events had nothing to do with him and Mo Jinchuan.
The reason why she didn't know the news before was entirely because Emperor Xuande didn't want her to know.
He is just an obedient servant. How could he dare to do anything without his master's orders?
Concubine Yu was a smart person, so she would understand the hidden meaning in his words.
When she thought of the Empress, who had already come in to see Emperor Xuande, she felt so angry that her teeth itched. She glared at Eunuch De and said, "You are so loyal. When His Majesty wakes up, I will say a few good words for you.
I will do my best for you and show my loyalty."
Upon hearing this, De Hai was immediately flattered and said, "In that case, I would like to thank the Imperial Concubine for her kindness."
Imperial Concubine Yu couldn't help but sneer, and said meaningfully: "You must be able to bear this kindness of mine."
Dehai pretended not to understand and kept a smile on his face.
Imperial Concubine Yu was furious when she saw this. She looked up at Mo Jinchuan and said, "I want to see Your Majesty."
De Hai smiled and said, "Your Majesty has just taken his medicine and rested. If the Imperial Concubine wants to see His Majesty, I'm afraid she'll have to wait a little longer..."
Imperial Concubine Yu interrupted him with a cold expression, "I'm talking to Prince Jin, how can a servant like you have the right to interrupt?"
Dehai's smile froze and he quickly lowered his head.
The palace maid beside her whispered, "Your Highness, please calm down. After all, Eunuch De is a favorite of His Majesty."
"Celebrity?" Concubine Yu snorted coldly, her eyes full of disdain.
He is just a eunuch who has been removed from his roots. He relies on the favor of growing up with Your Majesty in his youth and barely gets a few good faces in front of Your Majesty.
As a lowly eunuch serving others, don't take yourself too seriously.
This country belongs to their Mohist school.
Even if she is not in her son's hands now, given her status, it is not her place for a eunuch to point fingers at her.
Dehai lowered his head and stared at his toes, hiding all his emotions in his eyes.
Seeing him like this, Imperial Concubine Yu suddenly felt bored. She looked at Mo Jinchuan coldly and said, "Prince Jin, His Majesty loves you the most. If you lead the way, His Majesty will definitely not refuse to see me."
As she spoke, she looked towards the door behind him and said with a cool smile, "I heard that Princess Yong'an guarded His Majesty all night last night. She must be tired and exhausted now. Let's not disturb her here.
After all, His Majesty still needs her care these days, so it's not good to tire him out."
Seeing that Mo Jinchuan didn't respond, Concubine Yu smiled and asked, "Your Highness, do you think what I just said is wrong?"
Although she was smiling, there was no trace of laughter in her eyes, and her expression was even a little smug.
It was as if she was sure that Mo Jinchuan would be threatened by her.
Dehai listened and broke into a cold sweat for her in his heart.
You know, His Royal Highness Prince Jin has never been a good-tempered person.
As for the threats...
Apart from that person, the only person who can threaten the prince is His Majesty.
Concubine Yu gradually lost her patience and was about to go in through the door, lifting her skirt.
He had just taken two steps forward when Mo Jinchuan raised his hand to stop him.
She couldn't help but sneer, "I thought Prince Jin was asleep, just standing there without saying a word."
As she spoke, she looked towards the half-open door and said with sarcasm in her eyes, “If you didn’t know, you would think she was some country’s princess, with such a big air.
As a noble concubine, am I supposed to wait for her at the door?"
Mo Jinchuan asked with a cold look in his eyes, "Are you here to look for your father, or for Xier?"
Concubine Yu asked in amusement, "Can't I see them all?"
As she spoke, she tried to force her way inside.
As soon as he moved, Mo Jinchuan raised his hand to stop him.
In an instant, Concubine Yu felt as if her shoulder had hit a hard stone wall, and the pain made her face change immediately.
She covered her painful spot and took two steps back, angrily demanding, "Mo Jinchuan, I am your mother, how dare you use force against me?"
Mo Jinchuan's eyes were icy. Instead of answering, he asked, "Noble Concubine Yu bumped into my arm herself. How can that be considered violence?"
He raised his arm and said expressionlessly, "Eunuch De, please call the imperial physician. My arm is broken."
Concubine Yu suddenly laughed in anger, raised her finger and pointed at him, "You are so good, Prince Jin, how could I break your hand with such little strength?"
She looked at Eunuch De and gritted her teeth, "Go get the imperial physician. I want to see if his arm is made of paper!"
