Even though she said these few words with gritted teeth and enduring the severe pain in her hands, her tone was still respectful.
If you listen carefully, you can hear a slight tremor in her voice, which is caused by the pain.
At the same time, Concubine Min was making another decision in her mind.
She knew that if she didn't make a decision, the prince's situation would be irreversible.
When I returned to Tingzhu Temple again, it was already an hour later.
"Imperial Concubine, let me apply some medicine for you." As soon as she entered the Tingzhu Palace, Xiao Zi said to Pu Chenmin with concern.
She had been with the imperial concubine since she was a child, and this was the first time she saw the imperial concubine suffer such a great injustice.
Think about it, when Prince 눁 had just gotten into trouble, Imperial Concubine 꽭꽭 went to see the Queen. Who knows how much injustice she had suffered?
No wonder she didn’t let me go with her before?
When the imperial concubine was still a girl, she was her maid.
Thinking about it now, the imperial concubine is still so kind-hearted.
늀Because he was afraid of being impulsive, he dismissed himself and went to see the queen alone.
Thinking of this, when Xiao Zi looked at the imperial concubine again, she felt nothing but heartache.
"No need. Compared to the pain my son suffered while locked up in the clan house, my pain is nothing." Pu Chenmin said leisurely, looking ahead.
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Zi's eyes turned red and tears fell drop by drop.
"You silly girl, this injury is nothing." Looking at Xiao Zi, Pu Chenmin said unhappily.
Xiao Zi didn't open her mouth, but she didn't listen to Pu Chenmin. She took the ointment in her hand and applied it on her carefully.
"My Lady, your hand is obviously red and swollen, how can it not hurt?" After trying to hold it in, Xiao Zi couldn't help but say it out loud.
She felt sorry for her master.
"Pain? I don't know what's going on over there. I don't know if he's hungry, thirsty, or if anyone is bullying him..."
At this point, Pu Chenmin burst into tears and didn't say anything else.
"No, no, your majesty won't do that. No matter what, he is still a prince. How could anyone bully him?" Xiao Zi comforted her hastily.
"No? Then is there anything that this mother and son can't do?" Pu Chenmin said with a wry smile.
Then he continued, mumbling to himself:
"At the beginning, I told him not to get too close to Princess An Ning, and told him not to covet things that don't belong to him, but he just wouldn't listen to me. Now look what happened, and he has even lost his life."
"If you ask me, it's fine for us to just live our lives in such a dull way. We just need to be careful and prudent in this palace and not try to get things that don't belong to us. Why doesn't this child, Xiao'er, listen to me?"
Hearing this, Xiao Zi sighed.
"Did I say something wrong?" Pu Chenmin suddenly asked.
In fact, Pu Chenmin himself didn't know if he had said something wrong?
However, at this moment, she seemed to be really at her wits' end.
She didn't know how to save her son.
She knew that what she had just said was actually an excuse for her current predicament.
Didn't they not fight or compete back then?
But as soon as the emperor fell ill, they took action against Xiaoer.
If it weren't for Jian Xiu, she would have no chance to see her son again.
"My Lady, don't say that. They are so vicious, mother and son. Even if the prince doesn't have that idea, he won't let you go once he ascends the throne." After thinking about it, Xiao Zi couldn't help but say.
In fact, how could the imperial concubine not understand these principles?
She just deliberately stopped herself from thinking too deeply and forced herself not to understand.
Even if the prince did not fight, they would still end up dead.
Not for any other reason, just because he is a prince.
If they fight, they still have a chance to survive, but if they don't fight, only death awaits them.
"Then tell me, what should I do now? I don't care whether I can survive or not, but 佭儿 is my son, he is my life."
"As long as my son can live, it doesn't matter if I suffer a little. Even if they want to take my life, I am willing to do so."
After hearing Pu Chenmin's words, Xiao Zi fell into deep thought.
The imperial concubine doesn't have much power behind her. If she really has power, there is one...
Thinking of this, Xiao Zi quickly said to Pu Chenmin: "My Lady, why don't you go find her?"
"She? Are you talking about Princess An Ning?" Pu Chenmin asked.
But after saying this, Pu Chenmin smiled bitterly and continued:
"Prince Wang always calls Princess An Ning sister, but what is the truth? Does she treat him as her brother? Based on her current reality, how could she not know that Prince Wang was born?"
"But she never showed up from beginning to end. It's obvious that she doesn't want to get involved in this matter. Yes, with her current power, no matter who ascends the throne, it shouldn't be able to shake her in the slightest!"
Having said this, Pu Chenmin revealed a sarcastic smile and continued:
"Think about it, in this situation, everyone is keeping silent about Prince Wang. Any normal person would not want to have anything to do with Prince Wang! What's more, the couple are in command of a large army."
"My Lady, how do you know if it won't work if you don't try? I'd say Princess An Ning might not be what you think. Besides, we have no other choice but to ask her for help, right?"
"In such a big capital, the only ones who can save the prince are the couple. There's a saying that goes, try your best, right? No matter how small the chance is, can you still go and ask the queen for help? Imperial Concubine, you can put down your status and ask the queen for help, why don't you go and see Princess An Ning?"
"Besides, the fact that the prince holds Princess An Ning in such an important position in his heart shows that she is not a simple person. And her actions on the battlefield, doesn't that just illustrate everything?"
After hearing Xiao Zi's words, Pu Chenmin fell into deep thought.
"Do you think she will really help Prince Dong?" Pu Chenmin asked uncertainly.
"My Lady, whether it succeeds or not is one thing, but we have to try, don't we?"
After hearing this, Pu Chenmin seemed to have found a backbone.
"Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and prepare clothes for me."
"Is the concubine leaving now?"
"If not now, when should we wait?" Pu Chenmin asked back.
She couldn't wait any longer now, because of Xiao Zi's words, she finally saw a little hope.
After so many years in the harem, she knew very well that as long as there was a little hope, she must hold on to it firmly.
