Wei Wangqing saw Chen Zhiyan rush to her side in a panic, "My lady, are you hurt?"
As he spoke, he grabbed Wei Wangqing's sleeve and scanned him up and down to see if he was injured.
Wei Wangqing could sense his fear and trembling, and patted Chen Zhiyan on the shoulder, saying, "Don't worry, I'm fine."
Chen Zhiyan then noticed Nan Xiangrong, who had just fainted, and asked, "What's this?"
"Oh, right, quickly find the imperial physician, where is Prince An?" Wei Wangqing almost forgot about Nan Xiangrong.
Chen Zhiyan couldn't care less about being jealous now. After all, it was a matter of life and death, and he wouldn't act recklessly. He was already grateful that his wife wasn't injured.
Now he realized that all the things he used to care about were insignificant compared to his wife's safety.
"Prince An is with the Queen Mother."
Wei Wangqing frowned, but now was not the time to ask these questions. He quickly summoned a royal physician to examine Nan Xiangrong's wounds.
This one was found after going to great lengths, out of respect for the Sixth Princess.
It is said that the Empress and the Crown Princess have both encountered accidents, leaving only the Sixth Princess. It is absolutely crucial that no further accidents occur to her.
While the imperial physician was treating Nan Xiangrong, Wei Wangqing learned what had happened from Chen Zhiyan.
When news of the riot arrived, the Queen immediately dispatched people to rescue the rioters.
Many men waited anxiously there.
Every now and then, groups of noble ladies would be brought back.
But the Crown Princess remained silent.
until……
The princess was carried back, covered in blood.
"You mean, Fourth Princess's leg is broken?" Wei Wangqing asked in disbelief. How could this be?
"Yes, I heard that the horse was startled by a wild beast riot, and the princess fell off the horse and had her leg broken by the horse."
"Upon hearing the news, the Empress Dowager vomited blood and fainted on the spot."
Wei Wangqing pondered deeply: Was all of this really just an accident? What exactly was the person behind it all planning?
The imperial physician had finished treating Nan Xiangrong's wounds and came out to report: "Your Highness, the princess's wounds are not serious. As for the hidden weapon, it was only coated with a sleeping potion, which will only make people unconscious and has no other effect."
Wei Wangqing was relieved to hear this, and said, "Thank you for your trouble."
"I wouldn't dare."
Wei Wangqing then handed Nan Xiangrong over to the people of Prince An and left.
Today's hunting trip was shrouded in mystery and we really need to investigate it thoroughly.
Meanwhile, news arrived that the Empress had awakened.
Upon waking, the Empress was furious upon hearing the imperial physician's diagnosis, but the physician advised her not to get angry. How could the Empress not be furious?
One successor after another met with unexpected misfortunes, and every careful nurturing went to waste. Was Heaven determined to destroy the Great Wei?
"Is there really no way to connect it?"
"The Crown Princess's injuries are too severe; she will probably never be able to walk upright for the rest of her life."
The Empress was heartbroken. "Investigate! Investigate for me! I must find out what happened!"
"yes."
When the emperor is enraged, it is destined that millions will die and blood will flow for thousands of miles.
When Prince An heard the news of his son's injury, he rushed over after the Empress was well.
It took half a day for Nan Xiangrong to wake up; the sleeping pill was still very effective.
"Are you feeling any better?" Prince An asked with some concern.
Nan Xiangrong shook her head, "She's fine now."
"What exactly happened?" Prince An frowned. Too many things had happened today; a series of events were overwhelming.
“Someone tried to kidnap me, Mother. I could clearly feel that those people were after me, and at first they didn’t intend to hurt me. Later, the Sixth Princess saved me.” Her voice trailed off towards the end.
How could Prince An not understand his son's little scheme?
only……
"I understand. I will send someone to the Sixth Princess's residence with a thank-you gift when I get back," Prince An said ruthlessly.
Nan Xiangrong lowered her head instantly.
This time, the Crown Princess got into trouble, and the Empress's health was also declining day by day. This time, she was hit even harder. There was only the Sixth Princess left who was of age. How could the Eighth Princess, who was so young, accomplish anything?
I dare not think about the rest.
However, this is no longer something Rong'er can aspire to.
Of course, most importantly, she could see clearly that the Sixth Princess did not have those intentions.
Prince An stopped thinking about it, but since this matter concerned Rong'er, she was determined to investigate it thoroughly.
Her two children were her life. Now Yue'er had someone to protect her, but Rong'er couldn't be protected. She couldn't let anything happen to Rong'er.
Otherwise, how could I face him?
Prince An sent people to investigate the assassins in the forest, but was told that the corpses in the forest had all disappeared.
It seems they came prepared!
The hunt resulted in heavy losses, affecting both royalty and nobility, including many noble ladies who were injured.
They'll probably need to rest and recuperate for a while.
In the imperial court.
"You're telling me this was just an accident? An accident caused such heavy damage to my Great Wei?" The Empress threw the memorial to the ground.
The officials below dared not speak.
"Very well, very well." The Empress laughed in extreme anger.
"Since it was an accident, then it's your fault for inadequate supervision. Everyone in charge of the hunting grounds should be fired."
None of the ministers dared to speak, not even one begged for mercy.
They have been living in comfort for too long, to the point that they have forgotten the ruthless methods of the Empress.
This should serve as a wake-up call for them!
Wei Wangqing's side also failed to find anything; the other party had done it too cleanly, and there was absolutely no evidence to be found.
That's precisely why it's frightening.
Wei Wangqing felt that her Beggars' Sect had already penetrated every corner of the Great Wei, and this situation should not have occurred.
