"What happened? Why did the concubine fall down?" someone asked.
The maid glanced in the direction of Yan Zhiyi and said, "Yes... it's Miss Yan."
Yan Yuning lowered her eyes and felt everyone's gaze on them.
…
The rear hall.
Jiang Jin held his lower abdomen and looked at Yan Shiyao, who was lying on the ground in a mess, with a smile.
Yan Shiyao raised her head tremblingly, hiding her painful expression. After a long while, she raised her hand and touched the blood on her forehead.
"Miss Yan, I'm so sorry. I accidentally pushed you down." Zhu Qing covered her lips with a handkerchief, her voice unable to hide the laughter.
His forehead hit the ground hard. Did he become stupid?
Yan Shiyao pulled the corner of her mouth, slowly stood up with the help of the floor, grabbed Zhu Qing's arm, and slapped her in the face.
The jade pendant in her other hand was thrown heavily to the ground by her.
The jade pendant instantly broke into pieces. Jiang Jin looked at her in disbelief. "That's your highness's personal jade pendant. Don't you want to live?"
Hearing the footsteps coming from outside the hall, Yan Shiyao took the sharp knife used to peel fruit on the round table, held it in her hand, and stabbed it into her chest.
Jiang Jin's eyes widened and she staggered, but before she could deliberately fall to the ground.
With a "bang", the palace door was kicked open.
Qi Qingchen and some female relatives walked in together.
"I'm sorry... Concubine... Shiyao, I just want to return the jade pendant to Your Highness..." Yan Shiyao knelt on the ground, smiling miserably.
"Sister." Yan Yuning stepped forward quickly, "What's wrong with you?"
Yan Shiyao's face turned pale, "Ningning, it's my fault. I shouldn't... shouldn't..."
Everyone was talking in a loud voice. It seemed that Miss Yan was bullied by Concubine Jin.
"Everyone come out." Qi Qingchen growled.
Everyone's expression tensed and they retreated in a hurry.
Qi Qingchen looked at Jiang Jin with slightly cold eyes. He actually caused trouble for him!
Jiang Jin's face showed grievance.
Qi Qingchen caught a glimpse of the broken jade pendant on the floor and his expression became even uglier.
"Sister, I'm going to find my brother. Let's go." Yan Yuning looked at the blood oozing from Yan Shiyao's chest, her eyelids twitching from time to time.
"Ningning." Yan Shiyao held her hand, her eyes somewhat empty, "Ningning, don't... don't go... don't..."
"Sister." Yan Yuning called her.
"Don't go... You can't go..." Yan Shiyao's breathing became weak.
"Sister, sister?" Yan Yuning's eyes turned red.
"Wu An, please call the imperial physician." Qi Qingchen glanced at Wu An who was standing stupidly beside him.
Wu An nodded and ran out of the hall quickly.
Qi Qingchen squatted down and picked up the unconscious Yan Shiyao. The girl subconsciously shrank into his arms.
There was a slight gleam in Qi Qingchen's cold eyes.
…
Yan Shiyao slept for two days before waking up. When Emperor Qi learned of this, he sent her medicinal herbs for nourishing her body, granted her thousands of acres of fertile land, thousands of pieces of Shu brocade, and sent an imperial physician to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Jiang Jin was also punished by being confined to his house.
You are not allowed to step out of the Third Prince’s Palace.
The purpose was to suppress the anger that Yan Shiyao was injured by Jiang Jin in the Third Prince's Mansion that day and to appease the Prime Minister's anger.
Yan Ruijing still felt aggrieved. His daughter was harmed like this. Did he care about those rewards?
"Okay, he's the emperor, what can we do?" Lu Jinan comforted.
Yan Ruijing snorted, "Jin'an, why do you think Jiang Jin hurt Yaoyao?"
Lu Jinan sighed, "Rui Jing, why would Jiang Jin harm Yaoyao at a banquet held at his home?"
What is the purpose of doing this?
