Chapter 981 Ran Xiaoyu takes action
Just as she was in agony, suddenly, the little palace maid Chun'er came running over from the back of the hall and shouted, "Empress, something bad has happened!"
Xu Miaoyin was already extremely worried.
Hearing Chun'er's alarmed scream, he frowned and turned back to stare at her: "What's the matter?"
Ever since following Xu Miaoyin, Chun'er had always seen her gentle and dignified, and rarely seen her angry. When she saw her like this, she was startled and immediately stopped, not daring to move.
Zhu Feng also heard her words.
At this moment, it was like adding a heavy burden to his already confused mind.
He gritted his teeth and said, "What's wrong?"
Chun Er knelt down trembling with fear and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the Empress, Her Royal Highness the Princess is missing."
"What?"
Xu Miaoyin's eyes suddenly widened.
Princess Shinpei?
Ever since the Imperial Concubine falsely admitted to the incident in order to maintain stability at the Grand Altar, Princess Xinping has suddenly fallen from the clouds to the bottom of the earth, from a princess of golden branches and jade leaves to a "bastard" despised by everyone.
Fortunately, although she was at the center of the storm, because so many things happened afterwards, including the incident caused by the "Concubine Ning" in front of her, the ministers in the court were all busy opposing her, and not many people cared about the little princess.
What everyone cares about, of course, is the emperor who has been behaving strangely recently, the imperial concubine who was suddenly banished to the cold palace and disappeared, and the Ning Fei who broke the rules.
In such chaos, Xu Miaoyin could barely save her.
But now, she's gone?!
Xu Miaoyin hurriedly asked, "What's going on? Isn't the princess in Yonghe Palace?"
"Yes, I have indeed been guarding Her Royal Highness the Princess in Yonghe Palace, but just now..." Chun'er said this, her eyes flickering, and she glanced at Ye Zheng carefully.
Ye Zheng's heart sank, and he hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"
Chun'er said, "Ran Xiaoyu...she entered the palace."
"ah?"
Everyone was stunned when they heard Ran Xiaoyu's name.
Xu Miaoyin also turned her head to look at Ye Zheng, frowning, as if questioning him: Why didn't you take good care of her?
But at this time, there was no time to really ask, and he immediately said: "Then what?"
Chun'er said, "She said she hadn't seen the little princess for a long time and wanted to see her. She had been taking care of the little princess in Yikun Palace, and I couldn't stop her. Besides, the little princess was so happy when she saw her that she stopped crying."
“…”
"So, I let them meet."
"Tell me quickly, what happened next?"
"Later," Chun'er shuddered and said, "Ran Xiaoyu suddenly attacked me and knocked me unconscious."
Everyone gasped.
Xu Miaoyin's expression changed: "What? She——"
Chun'er said, "I was lying on the ground, dazed, and I saw her walk over and carry Princess Xinping away. Before she left, she seemed to be saying to Princess Xinping, saying—"
"What? Say it now!"
"She said that the people here are all heartless and ungrateful. She said that she wanted to take Her Royal Highness the Princess away to find her mother."
“……!”
Xu Miaoyin's face darkened.
He Yi and the others also understood it all at once.
At this time, Ye Zheng felt his head become heavy, as if it had been hit several times by a hammer, making his mind confused.
It's all my fault.
He thought he had appeased Ran Xiaoyu, and that after she hit him, she should be able to vent her anger.
But, how is that possible?
With a temper like Ran Xiaoyu, how could she watch the imperial concubine being kidnapped and tolerate the emperor appointing Qin Ruolan as Concubine Ning at this time?
Princess Xinping, after the grand sacrificial altar, had already been regarded as a "bastard" by everyone. This would make her face even more crises in the future.
Given her temper, she will definitely take action.
However, they did not expect that she would be so bold as to break into the palace and "kidnap" the princess.
This, this is a capital crime!
She really didn't care about her life for the imperial concubine!
For a moment, the hall was silent, and even the entire imperial city was quiet. Even the sound of a needle dropping could be heard.
For a moment, everyone didn't know what to say.
Should I continue to oppose the conferment of the title of Consort Ning? Or should I care about the Emperor's current condition? Or...
The whereabouts of Princess Xinping is what they should be most worried about?
At this moment, Zhu Feng only felt the overwhelming pain in his body, as if the waves were rolling in, sucking him in and tearing him to pieces.
And, it feels so real.
It seemed as if there was someone in the world who was experiencing such pain, but the pain in her body was transferred to herself.
Zhu Feng gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, "Princess? Princess Xinping?"
As soon as he said this, he immediately felt a severe dizziness in his head again.
He slowly raised his head and looked at Xu Miaoyin.
"My daughter? Princess Shinpei?"
“…”
When she met his red eyes, Xu Miaoyin also shuddered for a moment.
Because of his sensitivity and taboo about the "Imperial Concubine" these days, they certainly didn't dare to mention the Imperial Concubine in front of him, nor did they dare to mention the people and things related to the Imperial Concubine.
So the princess naturally kept it a secret for the time being.
She originally wanted to wait until Zhu Feng's condition stabilized before finding a way to resolve the matter. At least - Princess Xinping's identity had to be protected.
Nan Yan suffered such a great injustice. As the queen, she should give an explanation to her daughter in order to stabilize the political situation.
But I didn't expect it to happen so suddenly.
Ran Xiaoyu actually kidnapped Princess Xinping.
This matter was exposed in public without any cover.
I don’t know how Zhu Feng will deal with this sudden accident, or whether he will take his anger out on them.
Xu Miaoyin walked forward cautiously.
She whispered: "Your Majesty, this matter, I——"
Suddenly, Zhu Feng's face darkened. He looked up at the master of ceremonies and said, "The enthronement ceremony is over!"
“……!”
Everyone was shocked.
Qin Ruolan said subconsciously: "Your Majesty——"
"I said, the ceremony is over."
Zhu Feng's voice was originally deep and powerful, very magnetic. At this time, his breath was even lower, and his voice gave people the feeling of coming from deep inside.
The feeling of oppression is so strong that people dare not speak out.
Qin Ruolan was interrupted by him and could only freeze in place, biting her lower lip.
Zhu Feng's pale face looked even gloomier in the gloomy weather. He raised his red eyes, glanced at the people around him, then looked at the ministers of the Grand Prince, and said in a deep voice, "All of you, follow me to the Imperial Study immediately."
After saying that, he turned away.
Perhaps they did not dare to delay, so they briefly instructed the emcee to clean up the mess, and then turned around and followed.
At this time, Shi Yiru, who was standing in the corner, rolled his eyes and followed.
