Chapter 555 Evidence
Xie Chuxue helped Xiao Xixi walk out.
Baoqin followed closely behind and tried to intervene several times but was blocked by Xie Chuxue.
Xiao Xixi tried to shake off Xie Chuxue's hand, but Xie Chuxue held her arm tightly.
Under normal circumstances, Xie Chuxue's strength would be nothing to Xiao Xixi, and she could easily shake off Xie Chuxue's hand.
But Xiao Xixi was in a weak state now, with no strength in her body, and she couldn't get rid of Xie Chuxue at all.
Xie Chuxue seemed to have noticed this as well, and she raised the corners of her mouth and smiled.
"Your Highness, it looks like you are really ill. It just so happens that Steward Fang in our mansion is very skilled in medicine. Why don't you come back to Canglan Garden with me and let Steward Fang give you a thorough diagnosis and treatment?"
Xiao Xixi knew that the Manager Fang she was talking about was Fang Wujiu.
Fang Wujiu's medical skills are indeed very good, but Xiao Xixi doesn't want him to treat her.
She refused outright: "Thank you, but no thanks."
Xie Chuxue: "Why are you so cold, Madam? We are friends after all."
Xiao Xixi gave her an awkward yet polite smile.
The topic was forcibly ended.
The sedan chair had already been waiting at the gate of Changle Palace.
Xie Chuxue personally helped Xiao Xixi sit in the sedan chair, and reminded her softly: "Be careful on the road, Madam. I will visit you another day."
Four strong eunuchs lifted the sedan chair and walked away with steady steps.
Xie Chuxue stood there and watched them leave.
She looked at the sedan chair going away and smiled slightly.
Because of taking the Qi Deficiency Pill, Xiao Xixi is now very weak and her mind is a little groggy.
She sat in the sedan chair.
The sedan chair swayed slightly with her steps, making her feel a little sleepy.
She couldn't help but start dozing off.
At some point, the sedan stopped shaking.
Xiao Xixi raised her eyelids and asked softly, "Are we there yet?"
No one answered from outside.
Xiao Xixi felt something strange and was about to lift the window curtain to look outside when she saw the door curtain of the sedan chair was suddenly lifted by someone from the outside!
A strong hand reached in, grabbed her arm and dragged her out.
Xiao Xixi struggled and resisted instinctively.
But she was in a weak state now, with very little strength, and was no match for the opponent at all.
She was forcibly dragged out.
When she got out of the sedan chair, she realized that this was not the road to the Eastern Palace at all. Everything nearby was unfamiliar. She had never been here before.
As for Baoqin who was accompanying them, she had already been knocked unconscious and was now lying on the ground unconscious.
The man who captured Xiao Xixi was a particularly tall and strong eunuch.
Xiao Xixi recognized him at a glance. He was one of the powerful eunuchs who carried the sedan chair just now.
There were also three powerful eunuchs who surrounded them at this time.
If Xiao Xixi was in normal condition, it would be no problem for her to deal with these people, but now she felt so limp all over that she couldn't even use her internal strength. She had to gasp for air after taking every step, and there was no way she could beat them.
She yelled at the top of her lungs for help!
However, this place was too remote, and there was no one around.
It was in vain for her to shout.
Another strong eunuch apologized and hit her on the back of the head!
Xiao Xixi felt a pain at the back of her head and everything in front of her eyes quickly turned dark.
She just passed out.
…
After the court meeting ended, Luo Qinghan walked out of the meeting hall and Qingsong hurried to meet him.
"Your Highness, the Queen Mother has just called Concubine Xiao to Changle Palace."
Luo Qinghan frowned slightly: "Did you say what it was?"
Qingsong shook his head: "I didn't say."
Luo Qinghan didn't understand why the Queen Mother suddenly summoned Concubine Xiao?
He planned to go directly to Changle Palace to find Concubine Xiao.
Before he walked far, he was stopped by someone.
Zhenzhu bowed to him respectfully and said, "Your Highness, may I have a word with you?"
Eunuch Chang was very surprised.
He didn't expect that the senior maidservant beside Queen Qin would take the initiative to come to the prince.
Judging from her appearance, she was not here to convey Queen Qin's order.
Is it for personal matters?
But what private affairs could there be between Zhenzhu and the prince?
Luo Qinghan had expected Zhenzhu to come to see him, so he calmly replied, "Yeah."
The two went to a secluded place.
Eunuch Chang and Qingsong deliberately stood further away.
Pearl looked terrible at this moment, without a trace of blood on her face. She looked like a flower that was about to wither, with a sense of decadence visible to the naked eye.
She pulled a purse from her bosom.
She handed over the purse with trembling hands, and a smile uglier than crying appeared on her face.
"I have already done what your Highness asked me to do. Here is the evidence you requested."
Luo Qinghan stretched out his hand and took the purse.
He opened his purse and took out a crescent-shaped jade pendant.
Zhenzhu said, "This is a token of love between the Queen and Prince Xiling. It originally came in pairs. This is one of them. The other is with Prince Xiling."
Luo Qinghan was a connoisseur of valuables. He recognized at a glance that this jade pendant was a treasure left over from the previous dynasty. There was only one pair of them in the world. It was originally awarded to King Xiling by the previous emperor, but now one of the jade pendants was in the possession of Queen Qin.
It can be imagined that this jade pendant should have been given by Prince Xiling to Queen Qin.
Luo Qinghan put away the jade pendant and said, "You have done very well. The Shen family's cultivation of you has not been in vain."
When it comes to the Shen family, Zhenzhu feels extremely complicated.
Logically, she should be grateful to the Shen family, but at this moment she felt a little resentful towards them.
With red eyes, she said, "Your Highness shouldn't have come to see this servant."
Luo Qinghan looked at her quietly without saying anything.
"In order to help His Highness accomplish this, I betrayed the Queen. The Queen is so smart that she would first suspect me after she learned that the jade pendant was stolen. I can't go back to the Pepper Palace. All my efforts over the years have been in vain!"
As Pearl spoke, tears began to fall from her eyes and she cried uncontrollably.
She dared to come to the prince openly because she knew her identity had been exposed. It didn't matter whether she hid it or not, because Queen Qin would never let her go.
She is at the end of her rope and her future is dark.
Luo Qinghan said calmly: "As long as you are willing, I can have someone send you out of the palace, and you can find a place where no one knows about you to spend your old age."
Pearl looked at him in disbelief: "Really? You don't plan to kill me to silence me?"
Luo Qinghan asked back: "Why would I kill you?"
Pearl didn't expect this result.
Based on her understanding of the masters in the palace, they did not regard the palace maids and eunuchs as human beings at all. Anyone who might expose themselves would be ruthlessly killed.
Luo Qinghan really didn't intend to kill Zhenzhu.
It’s not because he is kind-hearted, but because it doesn’t matter to him whether Pearl is dead or alive.
Zhenzhu quickly wiped away her tears and knelt down: "Thank you, Your Highness, for not killing me. I am willing to leave the palace!"
As long as she could leave the palace, she would have the opportunity to avoid the eyes and ears of Queen Qin, and she might be able to find a way to survive in the future.
It's the last two days, please give me monthly tickets, I love you guys~
