Chapter 396 This child is still young, how to protect him?
Liang Yu scolded him, "Dear Zhou Liangdi! The prince thought you were a kind-hearted girl, but you are confusing right and wrong!"
Thinking of the gentle prince, Zhou Rui'er pursed her lips, her heart wavering. But once the arrow is shot, there's no turning back. What would be the outcome of her surrender? Liang Yu would complain.
"He teamed up with Li Qingcheng to kill the Crown Princess. Kill him now!"
There were corpses one after another in the yard. The sound of fighting obviously alarmed Jingzhao Yi and others, but with Prime Minister Zhou blocking them, no one came to support them except Jiang Jing and others.
When Qiu Shishu saw the blood all over the yard, his heart trembled.
"Who dares to move!" He strode in. No one in either group dared to move. He didn't even trust Liang Yu anymore and went straight to Jiusu's two personal maids. "What happened?"
Zi Tan said, "The Crown Princess was bitten by a poisonous snake and is frightened. She is giving birth inside."
Qiu Man was anxious to go in.
"sister!"
Zitan quickly grabbed her and said, "Miss Qiu, you can't go in. The lady has ordered that no one can enter unless she calls for help."
Qiu Man's eyes were red as she cursed at Zhou Ruier.
"You want to kill my sister, don't you?"
She was so angry that her eyes turned red, and she hit Zhou Ruier. For her sister, she could endure all the hardships.
Zhou Ruier gritted her teeth and didn't dare to fight back even after being beaten. She said, "My Lord, it was Jiusu and the others who wanted to harm the Crown Princess. I'm here to save her."
Qiu Shishu stood in the middle, with his hands behind his back, and said in a deep voice.
"I don't need your help, get out of here!"
Zhou Rui'er was determined to rush in. She said to the people behind her, "Go in and save the Crown Princess! I'll take all the blame!"
A bloody storm destroyed the best yard, leaving no good place.
No one expected that Zhou Ruier would be so stupid. Unless she killed everyone here, she would be severely punished when the prince returned.
Jiang Jing kicked away the man in black who was trying to break the door and said.
"These aren't just any ordinary thugs, they're Deadpool!"
His hands kept shaking. They were fighting desperately for the Crown Princess' life. He looked inside and saw Ah Su there. He had to hold on.
Song Wang said: "This group of people are really crazy, this is the Crown Princess!"
The gate of the Prince's Mansion was broken down.
Bang! Bang!
The sound of cavalry echoed all around.
Zhou Ruier's lips curled up. She didn't expect her father to actually send troops to her. "My Lord, please believe me. Jiusu is really trying to harm the Crown Princess. I was left here by the Crown Prince to protect her."
A voice came from behind.
"The Queen has arrived—"
The sky was slightly bright, and blood flowed like a river.
Empress Xu had a cold expression on her face and remained calm even as she stepped on the blood. When she saw the closed bedroom, she thought of the Crown Princess who was only seven months old, about to give birth prematurely, and had been bitten by a poisonous snake.
Her face darkened, as if a storm was about to come.
"Everyone, get up."
Qiu Shishu bowed and stepped forward.
Empress Xu asked, "No need for politeness. How is the Crown Princess?"
Qiu Shishu shook his head, his face full of worry, and said, "No news yet."
Zhou Ruier stepped forward: "Empress..."
Bang!
Xixiang and Yunxiang attacked Zhou Ruier from both sides, and soon her face was swollen.
Zhou Ruier knelt on the ground and said nervously, "Your Majesty, I am here to protect the Crown Princess."
Empress Xu said calmly, "Capture him and torture him severely. Also, ask the Prime Minister to come here."
"Wow!"
Accompanied by a loud cry in the room, everyone's calm hearts began to beat violently, especially the queen, who went forward happily but was afraid of delaying things.
I could only stick to the door and listen to the baby crying.
She clasped her hands together, closed her eyes and prayed: "Thank you, God, thank you, God..."
After a while, Jiusu called out, "Zitan, Koushao, you two come in first."
Amidst everyone's anticipation, the two walked in.
After a while, Jiusu opened the door and bowed to the Queen, "Mother and child are safe, but the Crown Princess and the child are too weak. When you go in to see them, please be quiet."
Qiu Shishu, a fifty-year-old man, was as well-behaved as a child. He looked eagerly and said, "Man'er, go see how your sister is doing."
"Okay." Qiu Man said in a low voice, and she took the initiative to help the queen walk in.
Everyone was shocked when they saw the chopped-off poisonous snake on the ground. Qiu Man's eyes immediately turned red. Empress Xu walked closer and took a look. The black poisonous snake was extremely terrifying. It was obviously not from the Prince's Mansion.
She held Qiu Man's hand and whispered.
"Don't worry, I will seek justice for the Crown Princess."
The broken snake was not dealt with in order to preserve the evidence. The Crown Princess was lying on the stretcher, feeling uncomfortable all over, but she had been given anesthesia and was unaware of all this. The crying of the child next to her made her cry.
Qiu Man lowered her head, tears falling down her face. She kept cursing the prince in her heart, and she cursed everyone in Shengjing except her sister Jiusu. She looked up and gave Jiusu a look of gratitude.
"Thank you," she said.
Jiusu chuckled and shook his head, holding the child in his arms to show the two of them. The fair and clean little grandson of the emperor was just very weak because he was born prematurely and was murdered. He waved his hands with distrust towards the world.
Empress Xu took over, and she had given birth to a child.
Knowing the danger involved, not to mention that it was a premature baby, if one was not careful, two lives could be lost. Thinking of what Zhou Ruier had done, her eyes were vicious.
Her little grandson almost disappeared.
"Jiusu, I will remember your love for the rest of my life! As long as I and the Crown Prince are alive, I will protect your family forever!"
This is a promise and also a life-saving talisman.
Jiusu Fu Shen: "My daughter thanks the Queen."
Empress Xu asked, "This child is still young. How can we protect him?"
"My daughter has an incubator," Jiusu said. "We need to find two attentive maids to accompany her every day and measure her temperature. The most important thing is to avoid crowds and not make any mistakes."
Hearing this, Empress Xu walked out and looked at her personal maid and said.
"From now on, the two of you will be solely responsible for taking care of the little grandson. No mistakes are allowed. Without my order, anyone who comes near except you two will be endangering the grandson. Do you understand?"
With everyone's joint efforts, the Crown Princess was put into the carriage.
Before the Crown Prince returned, the Crown Princess and the Emperor's grandson lived and ate with the Queen.
Ziyin followed behind, looking at the young lady who was still sleeping soundly, wiping her tears, "Miss, don't worry, the Queen will give you justice. You must wake up."
By dawn, all the bodies in the yard had been cleared away.
The bloodstains were difficult to wipe off and left deep marks on the white-gray floor tiles.
The poisonous snake in the bedroom was placed in a box and displayed in the yard. According to Empress Xu's intention, this was to let the prince open his eyes and see the price of doting on his concubine.
Liang Yu brought Prime Minister Zhou.
As Prime Minister Zhou entered the courtyard, he was stunned. He looked around, his eyes fixed on the nobleman standing in front of him. He quickly bent down and knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to the Empress."
After a moment, Empress Xu opened her thin lips and sat on the wooden chair brought by the servants.
"Prime Minister, such a great gift, I dare not accept it."
Prime Minister Zhou broke out in a cold sweat on his back. Although the Queen was tolerant towards the harem and didn't care much about the affairs, and there was no one left at home, she was the daughter of an old minister, and as long as the Emperor still wanted to use him, she would be his daughter.
Don’t even think about deposing the queen for one day.
Otherwise, it would anger the queen's father's old subordinates.
He said, "Your Majesty, your words are too kind. I should bow my head. If I have done anything wrong, I would like to ask Your Majesty to correct me."
After saying that, he knocked his head on the floor tiles and lowered his posture to the lowest position.
