Chapter 669: Kill him while he’s young!
De Haiqiang forced a smile and said, "My Lady Concubine, please don't embarrass me. Your Majesty doesn't want to see anyone right now."
Imperial Concubine Yu couldn't help but sneer and asked, "Don't you want to see anyone, or do you just not want to see me?"
De Hai smiled and said, "Look at what the Imperial Concubine said. Your Majesty is very tired after drinking the medicine, and before he went to bed, he specifically asked this old servant to watch outside.
Princess Roujia came here not long ago, but she left without even seeing Your Majesty."
I didn’t see that dead girl, but didn’t her mother see her?
Knowing that Emperor Xuande disliked those around him from reaching out too far, Imperial Concubine Yu swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth and said, "If I don't see Your Majesty, how can I clear my suspicion?"
Dehai glanced at Mo Jinchuan, who was sitting upright. He asked tentatively, "Is your arm injury okay, Your Majesty?"
Mo Jinchuan: "No problem."
Hearing his voice, De Hai had a rough idea in his mind. He smiled at Concubine Yu and said, "My Lady Concubine, the injured person is His Royal Highness Prince Jin. He hasn't even mentioned anything yet, so why are you so angry?"
When Concubine Yu heard this, she became even angrier.
It was obvious that this wolf cub had injured himself in an attempt to sow discord between her and His Majesty, so he naturally had to pretend to be magnanimous and indifferent.
Otherwise, how can she highlight the "evil" of her stepmother?
This wolf cub, Prince Jin, has always been petty, and now that he has become powerful, he can't wait to trample them, mother and son, under his feet.
If she had known this would happen, she should have been cruel and killed him while he was still young!
Despite receiving a cold shoulder, De Hai was not annoyed at all and continued, "Your Highness, calm down. The prince never said anything from beginning to end, let alone said that his injury was related to you.
In my opinion, this matter is just a coincidence and a misunderstanding."
Upon hearing this, Concubine Yu's expression turned even colder.
According to him?
Everyone in the palace knows that Prince Jin has been served by him since he was a child. They are like biological sons, but they are better than biological sons.
Whatever King Jin wants, no matter if it's flying in the sky or running on the ground, he will find a way to deliver it to him.
Her Ling Xuan had never enjoyed such treatment.
If she could have been with His Majesty earlier and given birth to a prince a few years earlier, perhaps she would have been ranked higher and more visible to others.
But unfortunately, he was the third one in the middle.
He is not close enough to be the eldest son.
It's not far enough back to get His Majesty's favor.
Even though her Ling Xuan had been studying hard since childhood and had put in twice or even ten times the effort of other princes, he could only barely be seen by everyone.
She was waiting for something to happen to the prince, and Mo Jinchuan injured his leg in the battle at Beifengpo, leaving only the second son to compete with her son.
But unfortunately, at the most critical moment, something went wrong with the spring hunt.
As a result, Ling Xuan stayed at home sick and could not even attend the morning court for more than a year, let alone get involved in government affairs.
Prince An is a loser. To call him mediocre is an insult to these four words. How can he be worthy of the position of crown prince?
Imperial Concubine Yu's eyes were filled with gloom. She stared into Mo Jinchuan's eyes and said, "You know how you were injured. I'm not a fool. You can't fool me with this little trick."
Before he could speak, Doctor Wang couldn't help but ask angrily, "How many times does your Majesty want me to repeat this?"
His Royal Highness Prince Jin's injury was definitely not his own fault."
He said angrily, "If your Majesty doesn't believe me, just raise your hand and strike me with all your strength to see how serious the injury is."
Concubine Yu did have this idea.
But she looked at her slender fingers and gave up.
After this slap, there was no feeling except pain in the hand.
Besides, Mo Jinchuan is a martial artist. How can he compare with a weak woman like her?
If she had such powerful martial arts skills, how could they be so presumptuous in front of her!
Seeing through her thoughts, Doctor Wang's beard trembled with anger as he said, "If it were someone who practiced martial arts, a single palm strike from him could indeed shatter bones.
But it is absolutely impossible for it to be dislocated."
Listening to the noises outside through a wooden door, Song Yanxi couldn't help but feel strange.
Concubine Yu has been living a life of luxury for many years. Although it is a bit exaggerated to say that she cannot even kill a fly, she can truly be said to be powerless.
Even if she gritted her teeth and rushed forward, she wouldn't hurt anyone.
Of course, it is impossible for Mo Jinchuan to dislocate himself.
Apart from anything else, even if he used some skillful force in his hands, you could tell whether he did it himself by just unbuttoning his collar and taking a quick look.
She felt that he wouldn't do it so obviously.
But if it wasn't his doing, how did his arm get dislocated?
Hearing Concubine Yu's questioning voice outside, something flashed through Song Yanxi's mind and she grabbed it.
So, he was the one who made that slight sound of hitting the wooden stake just now?
Concubine Yu didn't believe what Doctor Wang said. She frowned and asked, "Do you think I can dislocate his arm?"
To be honest, Doctor Wang doesn't think so.
Although he was not responsible for the safety and pulse of the concubines, he often heard the imperial physicians under him mention Concubine Yu, who had the support of the Left Prime Minister and was almost spoiled like a little girl by the emperor.
As the name suggests, she is extremely delicate.
If he has a headache or a fever on a daily basis, he would make sure that everyone in the palace knows about it.
Even the emperor and empress were extremely tolerant of her.
Even if many things are not in line with the rules, as long as they are not out of line, she will not make a fuss about it.
But after what happened just now, Doctor Wang was holding a grudge, so naturally his words were not so fair.
He said with a cold face: "Logically speaking, the imperial concubine has little strength, so even if she bumped into the prince, she would be the one injured."
When Concubine Yu heard this, she exclaimed in surprise, covered her shoulder and said, "Oh, my shoulder hurts so much."
Before she could speak again, she heard Doctor Wang change the subject and say, "But everything has its own unique characteristics. His Highness Prince Jin has been fighting for years, and his body is covered with new wounds and old ones.
If you've dislocated your shoulder before, it's very easy to dislocate it again."
Concubine Yu wanted to say he was talking nonsense, but then she turned around and thought about what Emperor Xuande had once whispered in her ear, and her face couldn't help but look ugly.
The victory report sent back in the past did mention that Mo Jinchuan accidentally fell off his horse when he was besieged by the Liang army. Although he won the battle, he injured his arm.
Did they say it was broken or dislocated?
Concubine Yu gritted her teeth. Although she couldn't remember it for a moment, she understood that she was being plotted against today.
Thinking of something, she looked at Mo Jinchuan and asked coldly, "Is it worth it to resort to such means just to embarrass me?"
Mo Jinchuan said coldly, "Your Highness has misunderstood."
To be more precise, she guessed wrong.
He didn't want to embarrass her, but he wanted to prevent her from seeing his father.
Even more so, let her meet Xier.
Concubine Yu is not a bad person by nature, but she is notoriously unreasonable.
Besides, she was too impatient, and there were some things that he shouldn't know yet.
Facing his gloomy eyes, Concubine Yu rolled her eyes and said, "You brothers are all better at acting than the other.
I want to see how you plan to report to His Majesty when he wakes up."
As she spoke, her eyes fell on the half-open door not far away, and she said with a sarcastic smile, "You can hide for a while, but you can't hide forever.
Princess Yong'an will marry into Prince Jin's mansion sooner or later. I don't believe she can continue to hide and not show up."
De Hai smiled and said, "Your Highness, you misunderstood. The princess took care of His Majesty all night last night and has gone to bed now."
"Really?" Imperial Concubine Yu sneered and said quietly, "If I were her, knowing that my brother's leg was broken, I wouldn't be able to sleep peacefully."
Mo Jinchuan's face darkened. He asked coldly, "What do you mean, Imperial Concubine?"
