Chapter 3 Someone Abuses the Heir
The palace maid babble out all the details of how they bullied the little princess, but she remains silent about Concubine Cheng's abuse of the child.

Seeing that His Majesty has fallen in love with the little princess, and Concubine Cheng is the little princess's biological mother, who knows, she might become very successful one day. At that time, as long as they can still keep their lives, Concubine Cheng will definitely save them.

Because of what happened today, maybe Lady Cheng will reward them with gold, silver and jewelry.

Seeing the wealth and prosperity so close before her eyes, the palace maid couldn't help but reveal a hint of joy.

Sanping knew what the palace maid was up to at a glance and sneered.

They still want to wait for someone to rescue them. Just the fact that they bullied the princess is enough to make them die a thousand times.

Emperor Jingyuan finally understood why his little daughter trembled with fear when she saw the candy. It turned out that those servants replaced the princess's candy with slightly poisonous pills. Although not fatal, it made the little princess suffer for three days. Since then, the little daughter has avoided candy and thought it was the candy's fault.

Emperor Jingyuan looked at the maids, his eyes flashing with coldness, "So this is how you usually deceive the princess. Very good! Sanping, take these maids away, and beat them all to death with a stick. Tell all the maids and eunuchs in the palace to come and watch the execution! This is the fate of bullying the master!"

Sanping lowered his head and said, "Yes, I will do it right away."

Xihe still held onto Emperor Jingyuan's thigh and took a moment to glance at the palace maids who were dragged away. She thought to herself, "Bad guy, really bad guy. She has avenged part of the poor little princess."

Looking at this little girl whose eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to his own, Emperor Jingyuan's heart, which had been hard for a long time, gradually softened, "Don't be afraid, Xiaoliu, Daddy has already dealt with them."

"Daddy, can you hug Xiaoliu?" The little girl opened her eyes wide and looked at Emperor Jingyuan expectantly.

The little girl was very thin, her clothes seemed loose on her body, and there was some blood on her face, but her bright eyes were particularly attractive.

Emperor Jingyuan raised his hand and picked up Xihe. The little girl seemed very happy and leaned on Emperor Jingyuan's shoulder, full of dependence. "That's great. Xiaoliu is not a wild child anymore. Xiaoliu is also a child who has a father who loves her."

Looking at his little daughter's defenseless smile, the anger in Emperor Jingyuan's heart miraculously calmed down, and his arms tightened a little. Xihe suddenly said "hmm", and Emperor Jingyuan's face suddenly changed.

"Sanping, summon the imperial physician to Yuanyang Palace, quickly! If you are late, I will kill all of you!"

"Yes! I obey your command."

Emperor Jingyuan held Xihe and walked quickly towards Yuanyang Palace. Sanping hurried to the Imperial Hospital and asked a royal physician to fly to Yuanyang Palace.

The imperial physician was dragged all the way here, his soul almost flew away. Before he could catch his breath, he met the sinister eyes of Emperor Jingyuan.

"Show it to the princess."

"Yes."

The imperial physician looked at the little girl with her legs dangling on the bed, wondering which princess this was who was so favored that his majesty could accompany her to see a doctor.

Xihe smiled broadly at the imperial physician, "Uncle Imperial Physician, thank you for your help."

Facing the little princess' innocent smile, the imperial physician immediately calmed down and began to take her pulse, but his brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

"How is the princess?" As soon as she finished checking the pulse, Xihe returned to Emperor Jingyuan's arms and held him tightly. "Your Majesty, the princess is very weak. Not only is she malnourished, but she is also..."

Emperor Jingyuan's eyes narrowed, and he said sternly, "Speak!"

The imperial physician was startled, and replied tremblingly: "Moreover, the princess may have suffered long-term external injuries, which has caused some internal damage. To know exactly where, we need a nanny to examine the princess' body."

As soon as the imperial physician finished speaking, he lowered his head, not daring to look at Emperor Jingyuan's expression.

A royal heir suffers long-term trauma in the palace. No matter which of the charges is true, it is a capital crime.

The entire Yuanyang Palace was deathly silent. Emperor Jingyuan felt that those palace maids had gotten away with it and should be skinned alive. However, due to the presence of his youngest daughter, he did not get angry. Only his violent heaving of his chest proved his indignation.

"Sanping, call a few palace maids in, and the others go wait outside."

"Slave, go right away."

Sanping called several palace maids in and helped Xihe change her dirty clothes. When she took off the last piece of clothing, she was frightened by the scars all over her body. After taking a quick look, one of them hurried out to report to Sanping.

Sanping's eyes widened in shock when he heard this, "Are you sure?"

The palace maid nodded heavily and whispered, "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't dare to speak nonsense."

Sanping was overwhelmed thinking about Emperor Jingyuan who was still waiting for news in the front hall.

"Take good care of the princess. I will report to His Majesty."

Emperor Jingyuan sat in front of the imperial desk, but he did not read the memorials. His eyes were fixed on a certain place, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"how?"

Sanping bowed his head and replied, "Your Majesty, the palace maid reported that the little princess' body is covered with scars, with countless blue and purple spots, and her back is also bloody. There is basically no good place."

Sanping's voice gradually faded away, and the imperial physician pretended to be dead in the corner.

Such a good heir to the throne is being abused like this. Who wouldn't be tired of living like this?

A cold laugh was heard from the eerily quiet inner hall, but Sanping lowered his head even deeper. It was okay when Emperor Jingyuan was scolding people, but it was the most terrifying when he laughed, which meant that blood was bound to be shed.

"Very good, Sanping, go and investigate. I don't believe that a few palace maids would dare to abuse the heir to the throne. Investigate everything thoroughly for me!"

"The slave obeys the order."
