"Me." Before Xie Lingqin could speak, Yuwen Qingyue stepped forward.
Xie Lingqin was not surprised at all. She stood there steadily, with the red-lipped, white-toothed eunuch standing close behind her, not leaving her side for even a moment.
"You, so you seduced the Crown Prince, making him give you the Jinse Tianxia residence, and then ignored me for days, right? You, you're not even as beautiful as me, why would the Crown Prince let you live here? Guards, beat him up..."
"Since the Crown Prince didn't let you come here, perhaps he's protecting you. If I were you, I would be smart and leave immediately, get out of here."
Xie Lingqin suddenly shouted coldly.
Strangely enough, it seems that she can unconsciously attract everyone's attention as soon as she speaks.
"What, what did you say?"
Consort Min was beautiful, with fair skin and beautiful eyes. However, she seemed to have no scheming mind. A few words and actions exposed her "purity".
"Who do you think you are, to talk to me like that?"
Consort Min is like a fire pot, easily ignited.
“I am Xie Lingqin. You are looking for me, so why can’t I talk to you?”
Xie Lingqin frowned, stepped forward, pulled Yuwen Qingyue aside, and stood before the radiant, richly dressed Consort Min. Her cold, piercing gaze made Consort Min shiver involuntarily. "You, you, you, you... you are who you are! How dare you speak to me like that! Guards! Guards..."
"It seems that Tai didn't tell you that I've been in a bad mood lately, and just recently, I was angered by your beloved Tai. So, I don't know what I might do in a little while."
Before Consort Min could finish speaking, Xie Lingqin interrupted her, uttering each word slowly and deliberately, as gentle as music. However, the chill emanating from her body told everyone that she was truly joking.
Consort Min swallowed hard, her hand instinctively reaching for her lower abdomen. She felt a dry mouth and a flustered heart. Her steps faltered, but she still managed to utter a defiant remark, "You, you just wait and see, I'll definitely… ouch…"
Before Consort Min could finish speaking, she suddenly clutched her stomach in pain and couldn't stand up.
"Your Highness, Your Highness." A group of palace maids and nannies immediately surrounded her.
"You, you, it was you! How dare you poison the concubine and the child in her womb! You vicious woman!"
"Go, quick, help the concubine back, and call the imperial physician..."
"Oh, blood, so much blood! There's no time to go back. Consort, please bear with it. This servant will go find the imperial physician right away."
In the blink of an eye, chaos erupted all around. Of course, besides Xie Lingqin, Yuwen Qingyue was also there, and they just watched.
Yuwen Qingyue frowned and looked at Xie Lingqin, "Should we help?"
"No, she'll turn around and say I want to kill her and won't help."
Xie Ling's words were cold and cruel. One sentence made Consort Min, who was sitting on the ground in pain, raise her hand and point hatefully at Xie Lingqin. "You, you, you...you must have harmed me! You...ah, my child, you can't be hurt! Waaah, you can't be hurt...waaah, I finally managed to get the Crown Prince to keep you, you can't be hurt...waaah...if something happens to you, the Crown Prince will dislike me even more...waaah..."
Consort Min suddenly burst into tears, her snot and tears streaming down her face, but her words...
Xie Lingqin frowned.
Beside her, Yuwen Qingyue's brows twitched. So, this child was obtained through improper means.
This is interesting.
"spread."
Just then, a red shadow flashed outside, and Duanmu Rong appeared before him in an instant. Looking at Consort Min, whose face was ashen and who was being supported, he raised his hand to take her pulse. His handsome face darkened slightly, and he immediately picked her up and was about to rush outside.
"If no one gives her acupuncture within half an incense stick's time, her unborn child will surely die."
Xie Lingqin suddenly spoke.
Duanmu Rong was a smart man. He looked at Xie Lingqin and asked, "Can you save her?"
"I want to see Xuanyuan Du."
These are Xie Lingqin's conditions.
Duanmu Rong frowned.
"Don't agree to her, Your Highness, don't agree to anything she says. It must be her who harmed me." Min Ce frowned in pain, still thinking of Duanmu Rong's situation.
The beauty was as lovely as jade, yet she was in so much pain. Aside from not smiling, Duanmu Rong didn't seem to feel much heartache.
Their eyes met, Xie Lingqin's cold gaze unwavering.
"Alright." After a short while, Duanmu Rong agreed and carried Consort Min straight into the palace.
"Go out." Xie Lingqin waved her hand, instructing Duanmu Rong to place Consort Min on the couch, and at the same time had someone prepare needles.
She had learned acupuncture from Master Dong before. At first, she just watched, but later she studied it carefully and received guidance from Master Dong. So this little thing was no problem for her.
Half an hour later, the wailing and crying stopped.
Xie Lingqin came out, her expression still calm. "Consort Min is fine, and the child is fine too."
Duanmu Rong paused for a moment, then looked at Xie Lingqin in the sunlight. After a while, he smiled charmingly, "You are so capable and talented. If I don't marry you, I will really be at a loss."
"You can try it too, and die under these silver needles." Xie Lingqin picked at the silver needle, which was as thin as a cow's hair, with an innocent look on her face.
“However…” Xie Lingqin raised her hand to stop Duanmu Rong, “I really have no intention of getting involved in the dirty and messy affairs in your backyard. However, since the other party wants to frame me for this, it would not be like me to just sit and wait to die.”
Duanmu Rong narrowed his eyes slightly. "What are you trying to say?"
“Consort Min’s stomachache was not faked. As she said, she went to great lengths to scheme against you and get a child for you. Not to mention that she wouldn’t do such a thing, even if it were for the sake of this hard-won child, she wouldn’t use tricks on the child to frame me.”
