Chapter 235 Big Wrongdoer
Chapter 235 Big Wrongdoer
But before he could bend his knees, the other party held his arms.
Concubine Liu choked with tears and said, "Sister, there is no need to be polite. I came here to ask for a favor."
This made Xianxian a little confused. The two of them were not related and had no friendship at all, so why did they come to her to ask her to do something for them?
They can only meet on the first and fifteenth days of the lunar month.
The rest of the time there is no chance to meet at all.
Xianxian asked in confusion, "What are you talking about, sister?"
Perhaps Concubine Liu felt that she had not explained herself clearly.
"Listen to me, sister. Only you can help me with this matter. I really have no other options."
The two sat down hand in hand.
Concubine Liu slowly told her difficulties.
It turned out that it was Concubine Zheng who took the fourth prince away.
The fourth prince is not even one year old yet, and is too old to remember anything.
Seeing that she could not give birth to a child, Concubine Zheng thought of getting a ready-made prince.
The other party is the virtuous concubine, although I am just a noble concubine.
But it still cannot compare to Concubine Zheng's status and means.
Behind Concubine Zheng was Duke Zheng, and Concubine Liu was merely the daughter of a fourth-rank official at the Dali Temple.
Naturally there is no way to compete.
Concubine Liu didn't know what to do, and went to Ziming Palace but was stopped by Concubine Zheng's men.
He was even threatened by Concubine Zheng, who warned him that if he continued to make trouble, Duke Zheng would target the Liu family.
Concubine Liu was out of favor and was cowardly and timid.
I can only come to Xianxian for help.
Because everyone in the palace knew that Concubine Yi had been practicing Buddhism with her hair uncut for ten years, and she believed in Buddhism and had a kind and compassionate heart.
Concubine Liu began to shed tears helplessly.
Xianxian said nothing. The other party really treated her as an enemy.
Just because I believe in Buddhism.
He once ignored the Queen Mother's anger and insisted on saving Wen Changwan out of kindness.
The people in the palace thought that she had bad intentions.
She pursed her lips and smiled calmly.
"I really can't help you, sister. Concubine Zheng is the leader of the four concubines. I don't have that much ability."
"What's more, the Fourth Prince is my sister's biological son. If you can't even protect him yourself, how can you count on others?"
"When your Majesty comes to Guanju Palace, I will help my sister persuade her, but I am helpless."
What Xianxian meant was whether she could successfully recapture the Fourth Prince.
She couldn't guarantee it exactly.
Since she made up her mind to come to Guanju Palace, Concubine Liu never thought that the other party would refuse.
She stared at Xianxian blankly, and came to her senses with shock.
"Why do you refuse me? You can easily see His Majesty, it's just a matter of talking."
Because they rely on the fact that they are weak, they can use moral blackmail with impunity.
Xianxian's face turned completely cold.
"That's your child. I'm just a concubine. Why would I have to confront Concubine Zheng?"
"Why can't you face off?"
Concubine Liu spoke in an excited tone and without restraint.
"You are pregnant now, and His Majesty treats you so well. You can definitely help me..."
"enough."
Listening to the other party's accusations, Xianxian just felt upset and irritated.
"Sister, please calm down. I will not keep you for dinner."
Concubine Liu seemed to calm down suddenly, and left in a hurry with a bit of daze.
"I am reckless and have disturbed my sister."
Looking at Concubine Liu's back, Xianxian covered her forehead and felt something was wrong.
Both Concubine Liu and myself seemed to be in a wrong mental state just now.
"Fuliu, go check, did Concubine Liu meet anyone before she came to Guanju Palace?"
"What do you mean, empress?"
Xianxian tapped the table lightly with her nails.
"I suspect someone has placed something on Concubine Liu. Please investigate carefully."
"Yes."
Even if I am pregnant, I will not let my emotions be controlled by others.
The inexplicable irritability that just arose made Xianxian doubt whether she had taken any medicine.
An hour later, Fu Liu came back with news.
Before Liu Guipin came to Guanju Palace, she happened to go to Ziming Palace.
It was a pity that she didn't meet the Fourth Prince, so Concubine Zheng came forward and sent her away.
Just before leaving, she met Wen Changwan, who reminded Liu Guipin that she could come to ask Xianxian for help.
"Tsk."
Xianxian raised her eyebrows in surprise and asked, "So who drugged her? Have you found out?"
"Your Majesty, Concubine Liu had just left Guanju Palace when she was splashed with water by a maid who was sweeping the floor. I'm sure the medicine on her body has been dealt with."
Even though Wen Changwan is the heroine, her arms wouldn't be so long.
Some people wish they could give birth prematurely, or that they might have a miscarriage due to emotional excitement.
Queen Wang wanted to kill the mother and keep the child, so she only thought of doing something during the delivery. It was impossible for her to harm herself at this time.
Then only Concubine Zheng is left.
"Forget it. It doesn't matter if there is no evidence. It's enough for me to have a rough idea of who it is."
Xianxian didn't want to care about Concubine Liu's affairs.
However, since Concubine Zheng dared to plot against her, she didn't mind disappointing her.
Want to keep the Fourth Prince by your side?
Have you asked the second prince if he is willing?
Within three days, under the instigation of the palace servants, the Second Prince actually made a scene in front of Chang Liu.
He changed from his usual obedient and sensible self and cried and made a fuss, not wanting the Fourth Prince to live in Ziming Palace.
The second prince was able to accept the leg disease left by the injury at first, and even felt indescribable happiness in his heart.
This way you don’t have heavy homework.
No need to practice horseback archery hard.
But as rumors began to spread in the palace, Concubine Zheng was always crying secretly.
As well as the strange looks from the palace servants, the second prince gradually became sensitive.
Until the appearance of the Fourth Prince, Concubine Zheng wanted to raise him, and even more wanted him to be close to the Second Prince.
In order not to disappoint Concubine Zheng, the second prince learned to be a brother.
But she had to watch helplessly as the Fourth Prince took away her mother's love.
Plus the gossip and instigation of the palace people.
Don't underestimate children's jealousy, especially since the second prince had just fallen off a horse and was disfigured.
He secretly carried the Fourth Prince in his arms and limped to the Qinzheng Palace.
When this happened, Xianxian was having dinner in the Qinzheng Hall.
On one side was the Second Prince’s crying, and on the other side was the Fourth Prince’s ignorant crying.
Xianxian, who was standing by, just felt a headache, not to mention that her biological father, Chang Liu.
"Father, I do not want my fourth brother to live in Ziming Palace. He has his own mother, so why must he live in Ziming Palace?"
In fact, Chang Liu had already heard about Concubine Zheng taking the Fourth Prince away.
He just hasn't figured out the formula for solving it yet.
Because Duke Zheng was standing behind Concubine Zheng, it was also involved in the politics of the previous dynasty, and Duke Zheng was putting pressure on her in the court.
Chang Liu is still troubled by this matter.
Now that the second prince came out crying, Chang Liu's eyes brightened.
"Yu'er, tell me, why don't you want the Fourth Prince to go to Ziming Palace?"
The second prince stood up and limped forward.
He looked lonely.
"I only have one mother, and I don't want to share her with others."
"Is it because I am disfigured and have a leg disease that you want to raise my fourth brother and dislike me, your disabled son?"
Xianxian, who was standing by, said with a distressed look on her face, "Your Majesty, the Second Prince is still just a child. It is a child's nature that he is unwilling to share his mother."
"Why not return the Fourth Prince to Concubine Liu? Concubine Liu has also been missing her son very much these days."
Children cannot hide their thoughts, let alone children in the palace.
