Chapter 203 Shangguan Nanfeng in a wheelchair
In the Prime Minister's Mansion, everyone was sitting around a huge round table. On the table, a girl who looked very much like the Third Prince was kneeling on the ground, trembling like a frightened rabbit, with slightly red eyes.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, please forgive me..." Su Xin mustered up the courage to look up and made eye contact with the emperor, but she couldn't bear the aura anymore and quickly lowered her head.
This is what the middle-aged man told himself. If he had the chance to meet the emperor, he must let the emperor see his appearance clearly without saying anything. Her face is worth a thousand words.
Su Yue looked at the face and the figure, a hint of doubt flashed in the depths of her eyes. This figure was too familiar.
The third prince just held the smooth porcelain teacup and looked at the girl in the middle of the stage. The similar face made him dazed for a moment.
Then he turned to look at his father, only to see the emperor staring at the girl in the center of the stage, as if he was thinking about something.
Concubine Yu and Concubine Hui were also stunned, especially Concubine Hui, because it was she who killed the Third Prince's biological mother. Now, when an almost identical face suddenly appeared, she subconsciously thought that Concubine Xian had come back for revenge.
But later, when he saw Su Xin kneeling on the ground and trembling, the panic that flashed across his eyes was concealed, and replaced by a cold gaze.
My virtuous concubine, it won’t be like that.
In her memory, Concubine Xian was aloof, cold and aloof, and even the Emperor looked down upon her. Concubine Hui even felt that if she could arouse the Emperor's anger and kill Concubine Xian, that would actually be what Concubine Xian wanted.
However, the momentary panic in Concubine Hui's eyes was noticed by Su Yue and Shangguan Nanxing.
Why did Concubine Hui panic when she saw a face similar to Concubine Xian? Was there some hidden secret that he (she) didn't know?
The emperor looked at Su Xin in the stage and didn't speak for a long time. Since the emperor didn't speak, naturally no one else dared to say a word.
Aunt Liu's heart was in her throat now. She even planned that if the emperor got angry, she would pretend to have a stomachache to attract everyone's attention.
"Father, what happened?" Shangguan Nanfeng arrived late at this time, and he naturally did not notice Su Xin on the stage.
They were mixed together?
Su Yue looked at Li Yan standing next to Shangguan Nanfeng, and her face darkened. Are these two people in cahoots after all?
What Su Yue didn't know was that ever since Shangguan Nanfeng passed by Nanshan, after he woke up, he had been wondering who the person who knocked him unconscious was. He always felt that this matter was very important to him.
He didn't even have the mind to say anything more to his mother, Concubine Hui. The mere thought of himself and a man... made him feel sick.
He thought about it for several days and had nightmares for several days.
It was not until the night before yesterday when he returned to the Nanshan nightmare again. When the man kicked him and made him slide backwards, he noticed something that he had not noticed before.
The jade on the collar that belonged exclusively to the Third Prince was of a special quality and very nourishing. His father had given it to the Third Prince because he saw that he was weak. Shangguan Nanfeng remembered that he was jealous for a long time at that time.
Now that I see you again, of course I can recognize you.
However, he had always overlooked this detail before. So when Shangguan Nanfeng was sure that the person who was kicked unconscious was the third prince Shangguan Nanxing, his character changed completely.
This Shangguan Nanxing kicked himself with great force and his movements were unusually fast. Even he, a martial artist, suffered. If Shangguan Nanfeng was still certain that the Third Prince was still sick, then he would be a big fool.
A feeling of being teased by Shangguan Nanxing and Su Yue arose spontaneously, followed by anger.
This Shangguan Nanxing hid himself so well that even my mother, who had a sharp eye, was overshadowed.
Now that Su Yue has chosen to stand by Shangguan Nanxing, it's no wonder that he turned against her.
Although he had broken bones all over his body and the imperial physician said he needed to rest for a while before he could get out of bed, how could he be absent from Su Yue's coming-of-age ceremony, which was so lively?
So a few days ago, he ordered craftsmen to make a chair with two wheels, and finally delivered it to the Second Prince's Mansion. Then he ordered people to put the chair on the carriage and go to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Unexpectedly, he met Li Yan at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Thinking of the scene of solving the Nine Rings before, Shangguan Nanfeng naturally knew that Li Yan was also extremely intelligent.
So he spoke to Li Yan and asked Li Yan to help him push the chair down.
Li Yan was a person of very low IQ. As soon as Shangguan Nanfeng opened his mouth, she knew what he meant. However, she was naturally happy that a prince would condescend to trouble her.
"Why are you here, my son?" When Concubine Hui saw Shangguan Nanfeng coming in, she quickly stood up and wanted to go to Shangguan Nanfeng's side.
"You, come back to the palace with me!" The emperor spoke softly at this time. The shock in his eyes was gone, replaced by a calmness like a deep pool.
"Yes." Su Xin agreed softly, feeling happy in her heart. It seemed that this face was really useful!
But when she thought that she was no longer innocent, Su Xin's eyes, which had just shown a hint of joy, dimmed again.
Afterwards, the emperor returned to the palace with a group of people. However, when the emperor left, there was no smile on his face, making it hard to guess what he was thinking.
Shangguan Nanfeng watched his mother and his father pass by him, and nodded to Concubine Hui to indicate that he was fine.
When Concubine Hui looked at her son today, she always had the illusion that her son had grown up overnight.
So Concubine Hui patted Shangguan Nanfeng on the shoulder and then followed the emperor back.
Aunt Liu just watched Su Xin being taken away by the emperor. No matter how hard she tried to hide the worry in her eyes, Su Yue still saw it.
Su Yue's doubts grew even stronger. This concubine Liu seemed to know this woman who looked somewhat like the third prince, and that woman seemed familiar to her no matter how she looked at her.
"Su Yue, congratulations, you've reached the age of 15." A slightly sharp female voice interrupted Su Yue's thoughts, and she saw Princess Fuping walking towards her with Concubine Yu, with undisguised provocation in her eyes.
"Thank you, Princess." Su Yue suppressed her expression and replied calmly. After all, the two of them were now on an equal footing, so she naturally didn't need to bow.
"Hmph, you'd better survive tonight." The moment Fu Ping missed Su Yue, he warned in a voice that only the two of them could hear, full of murderous intent.
Su Yue listened without even turning her head. She had always known about Fu Ping's murderous intention.
If Fuping did nothing at her coming-of-age ceremony, that would be out of character.
Afterwards, Fuping held his head high and followed Concubine Yu out.
"Did you see the dancer's appearance just now?" After seeing the emperor leave, an older minister began to discuss in a low voice with the people around him.
"It seems that a new imperial concubine is going to appear in the palace." The man naturally understood what the minister meant, looked at the empty doorway, and responded quietly.
"Shh, stop talking, the Third Prince is here!"
Seeing that the two were talking as if no one was around, another old minister quickly signaled them to keep quiet, and then nodded towards the third prince.
When the two men saw the secretive expression on the Third Prince's face, they shut up in disappointment.
"Third brother, long time no see." Shangguan Nanfeng gestured to Li Yan to push him in front of Shangguan Nanxing. He smiled and greeted warmly.
"Second brother, how are you?" Shangguan Nanxing naturally noticed that something was wrong with Shangguan Nanfeng and concealed the doubts in his eyes.
"Compared with my third brother, he is naturally better, Miss Su, don't you think so?" Shangguan Nanfeng turned around and suddenly looked at Su Yue.
Su Yue stared at Shangguan Nanfeng's half-smile and was stunned. What did Shangguan Nanfeng mean by this?
When everyone heard the conversation between the two brothers, they sensed a hint of tension and hurriedly stood up to say goodbye to Prime Minister Su.
Just kidding. Apart from anything else, it would be bad if the two princes quarreled and it affected them.
Besides, the emperor had already left, so naturally no one would say anything if they left.
When one person started to say leave, the others naturally followed. Soon, the Prime Minister's Mansion, which had been bustling just a moment ago, became quiet.
