Chapter 216 Wounds
Wang Yu quickly came up with a plan.
People outside say that her father and the Grand Tutor are mortal enemies.
Some even compared the Wang family and the Fu family, saying that the Fu family was a prestigious family in the north, with generations of honor, and that they had produced many famous ministers and imperial concubines, etc.
However, when it comes to the Wang family, they will say that the Wang family has only risen to prominence in recent years and that their foundation is weak, etc.
She hates hearing these kinds of things.
So what if they're from a prestigious family in the North?
Ping'an City was the capital of the Great Xiao Dynasty, but it was gone just like that.
This kind of thing doesn't depend on the foundation of one's career; one should look forward.
We'll have to see how things go now.
Now, His Majesty is clearly bewitched by that vixen surnamed Chu.
What is the Chu family? Even if they are a noble family, they are a fallen one. If His Majesty hadn't taken a liking to Chu Lianzhou, she wouldn't be standing here today.
However, Chu Lianzhou gave her a great idea.
At this moment, Fu Lanzhu was playing her pipa with great concentration, while Wang Yu was thinking and dancing at the same time.
Today, she wasn't wearing a dance costume, so it wasn't as light and easy to move around in, making it difficult to execute some of her movements.
But it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if the clothes aren't great. She just needs to do her best according to her usual dancing habits.
She gradually let go of those selfish thoughts and truly immersed herself in the world of music and dance.
Xiao Qing could tell from looking at her that Wang Yu really loved dancing.
Even someone with a less-than-likable personality like her becomes exceptionally admirable when she's seriously doing what she loves.
As they say, a woman who is serious is the most beautiful.
Xiao Qingting was willing to appreciate this kind of beauty.
But just as she was relaxing and saying she wanted to take a good look at the view, Wang Yu started doing a difficult backbend, regardless of the objective conditions.
Xiao Qing had a vague feeling that something bad was about to happen.
Although she cannot dance and does not understand dance, she has learned basic martial arts from Mr. Wu and has an understanding of human anatomy and physical limits.
Although Wang Yu dances beautifully, some of the moves are indeed difficult for her to perform.
It seems that this is due to the limitations imposed by the clothing.
But whatever the reason, shouldn't you be more reckless at this time?
Xiao Qing watched as her entire upper body folded backward, her hands making a flicking motion with her sleeves, the slightly wide sleeves swaying back and forth.
Then she turned half her face to the side, her eyes smiling, and leaned back further, her posture at that moment quite alluring.
Xiao Qing suddenly stood up.
No sooner said than done, Wang Yu suddenly tried to get up, but instead fell heavily to the ground!
"Ah—" she screamed, and the clear sound of the pipa suddenly stopped abruptly, the string snapped and the sound ceased. Wang Yu lay on the ground in a contorted position, her face contorted with pain, tears streaming down her face. She was completely dazed and unable to say a word.
Xiao Qing walked up quickly, and Ma Hong and Ming Xiu also hurried over with grim faces.
At this time, many of the other women were still unaware of what had happened; most of them simply thought that Wang Yu had fallen.
Wang Yu, however, was experiencing immense suffering.
She could faintly hear Xiao Qing's voice.
"How is it? Don't move, the imperial physician will be here soon, just bear with it..."
But how can one endure such excruciating pain?
Wang Yu felt so much pain that her vision blurred. Finally, she couldn't hold on any longer, and her consciousness quickly faded into darkness.
In her final moments, she had only one thought—it was done.
It was only then that everyone realized something was wrong, something really serious.
"The imperial physician, where is the imperial physician?"
"Your Majesty, please don't worry..."
Fu Lanzhu's face immediately turned pale.
Some people quietly retreated, but couldn't help but peek over.
Mingxiu examined Wang Yu first, then whispered to Xiao Qing, "Your Majesty, Lady Wang has twisted her lower back and should not be moved at this time."
Xiao Fu and the others quickly came over as well.
Xiao Qing stayed by his side until the imperial physician arrived.
Because Wang Yu was injured, the subsequent selection of talents could not proceed.
After consulting with Xiao Qing, Ma Hong ordered someone to take them away, leaving only the Duke of Anguo and his grandson, Xiao Yan and his servant, and Xiao Qing's people at the scene.
Xiao Qing told Duke Anguo and Xiao Fu to go back first, then sent Xiao Yan away. Finally, after watching the imperial physician make proper treatment, he returned to Chengde Palace.
After returning home, she frowned and kept replaying the scene in her mind.
She learned her lesson after what happened with Chu Lianzhou.
This wasn't Wang Yu's first time dancing.
As a long-time dance enthusiast, Wang Yu must be very familiar with things related to dancing.
She had seen Wang Yu dance at the Winter Solstice Banquet, and the woman's flexibility and balance were indeed rare among ordinary people.
Logically speaking, the move she made before falling today shouldn't have been difficult for her.
But that angle... it just feels a bit strange.
Ma Hong entered and reported, "Your Majesty, the imperial physician has examined the patient. It's just a sprain, nothing particularly serious. With careful recuperation over ten to fifteen days, he'll be fine. Your Majesty need not worry."
Xiao Qing nodded, but she had a bad feeling about it.
"Has a message been sent to the Prime Minister's residence?"
"It has been sent. The Prime Minister should have received the news by now."
Xiao Qing nodded, "If the Prime Minister comes, then take him directly to see Wang Yu first."
The person was injured in Nanhua Palace, so she has to take responsibility.
etc!
"Ma Hong, quickly send a message to the Grand Tutor's residence as well. Go there yourself, and be quick."
Ma Hong agreed and left the palace shortly afterward.
A short while later, Wang Xiang rushed into the palace anxiously, followed by Fu Mingyi.
Xiao Qing had someone take Wang Xiang to see his daughter first, and then they met with the Grand Tutor.
"Grand Tutor, about Wang Yu..."
She had a vague feeling that something was wrong, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.
Fu Mingyi looked at her. "How are your injuries now?"
Xiao Qing recounted the entire situation to him.
Finally, he looked at him hesitantly, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.
"Does Your Majesty have any thoughts?"
"Was Wang Yu doing this on purpose?"
Fu Mingyi raised an eyebrow. "Why does Your Majesty think this way?"
Xiao Qing walked to the open space, then recalled the situation and did a backbend. Then, her body tilted slightly to the side, and she immediately felt a twisting and uncomfortable feeling in her tailbone.
If you stand in cold weather for half an hour and then do this exercise without warming up properly...
She was startled.
Why?
“Your Majesty, Wang Yu’s injury has nothing to do with you. Any decisions she made were voluntary.”
Xiao Qing frowned. "I have a bad feeling."
Sure enough, before they could finish speaking, Wang Xiang's crying could be heard from outside the door.
Wang Xiang usually had a smiling, kind demeanor, but when he cried, it was incredibly pitiful.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! My poor daughter... my daughter..."
Xiao Qing was immediately at her wit's end.
