Chapter 34 Xiao Mansion
Gu Qinghan was still laughing in her sleep, while the maids around her were completely confused.
Xiao Yinghuai was already living a life worse than death in the Xiao family mansion.
When Xiao's father saw his son being carried back to the mansion horizontally, and even the Empress herself making a private visit, and dismissing the servants, leaving only himself and the physician in Xiao Yinghuai's room.
I just went to a flower banquet, how did it turn into this?
Inside Xiao Yinghuai's bedroom.
With tears in her eyes, the Empress looked at Xiao Yinghuai's wounds with heartache.
The child I met for the first time in eighteen years has suffered such trauma.
The despair in Xiao Yinghuai's eyes at that time made her feel suffocated just thinking about it.
I already feel bad for this child. Children born into the royal family are all raised in luxury and with plenty of food.
Besides Ye Muyan...
If it weren't for him, Xiao Yinghuai wouldn't have been sent away!
The position of Crown Prince should have belonged to Xiao Yinghuai, but it was snatched away by this lowly person.
The empress's expression grew increasingly terrifying, causing the physician to tremble with fear.
He trembled as he checked Xiao Yinghuai's pulse and discovered that Xiao Yinghuai was severely injured, his injuries were extremely serious.
His body was covered in wounds, and his eyes had lost their light.
He said tremblingly, "Young Master Xiao suffered extremely severe damage this time and needs to recuperate properly."
"You can't make any big movements during this time, otherwise you'll easily tear the wound and make it impossible for it to heal."
"Take the medicine written on this paper three times a day for the next few days. Apply the medicine on this paper to the wound..."
After giving the instructions, he cautiously looked up and found that the Empress was expressionless, but her hands were trembling.
He quickly replied, "I know nothing. I will keep my mouth shut once I leave the Xiao residence and will not utter a single word!"
The empress merely glanced at him and gestured for him to leave.
The doctor breathed a sigh of relief and walked out of the Xiao residence with peace of mind.
He had only taken a couple of steps when he was stabbed to death by a passerby.
He died with his eyes wide open, muttering, "I won't tell anyone."
Seeing that he was completely dead, the assassin returned to the queen's side to report.
"Your Majesty, I have dealt with that physician."
"Okay, go down."
The Empress looked worried. She approached and took Xiao Yinghuai's hand.
She said with heartache, "My son... you've really suffered today."
Xiao Yinghuai couldn't make a sound. Liang Er's actions kept replaying in his mind. This humiliation made him feel like he wasn't human, and the two of them were like animals.
Disgusting, really disgusting.
Finally, Gu Qinghan's shocked gaze and the mocking looks in the eyes of the onlookers.
He was unwilling to accept it. Today was supposed to be a day to show off his power and prestige. Gu Qinghan should have been the one to suffer this calamity. Why was it him? How could it be him?
Why should I be subservient to others? I am a noble prince, why should I suffer such humiliation?
Whose scheme was this? Who turned themselves into this?
When he returns to his position as prince, he will make all those who mocked him die.
He was so angry that he almost vomited blood again. Blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and his mouth twitched, making him look rather pitiful.
The Empress burst into tears upon seeing this; her poor child...
Finally, as if she had made up her mind, she told Xiao Yinghuai, "My child, you will not suffer this calamity in vain. Your mother will make it up to you, your mother will make it up to you!"
Seeing that Xiao Yinghuai's eyes had regained some light, she continued, "Your mother is giving you the position of Crown Prince; the future heir can only be you!"
Xiao Yinghuai felt dizzy and uttered broken words: "Ye... Ye Muyan..."
The Empress scoffed, "Ye Muyan has no bloodline with me. His mother was just a lowly maid. How can such blood compare to yours?"
"We only need to seize upon Ye Muyan's mistakes and remove him from the position of Crown Prince in one fell swoop. Then you can simply return to the throne legitimately and become the Crown Prince again."
Xiao Yinghuai was both sad and happy, panting heavily, his face flushed.
"How...how...can we find...Ye Muyan's...mistakes..."
The Empress pursed her lips and gently stroked the phoenix hairpin: "He originally had no scruples, but today, I discovered that he seems to have feelings for your fiancée, Gu Qinghan."
"Gu...Gu Qinghan?"
"I know Gu Qinghan is infatuated with you, all we need to do is..."
The two men exchanged similar sinister smiles, already anticipating the scene.
