Empress Jinghua: The eunuch is nine thousand years old

Chapter 486
Xia Shengqing trembled all over, opened her eyes in a daze, and saw Rong Yu's frowning eyes.Xia Shengqing took a breath, let go of her palms, and nodded gratefully to Rong Yu.

Rong Yu turned his head and looked at Xia Zijin intently. Seeing that her breathing was much more stable than when she returned home, she was quietly relieved.

The fact that Xia Zijin was assassinated on the way back to the palace soon reached Emperor Ming's ears. Emperor Ming was furious, and immediately sent the eunuch beside him to visit Xia Zijin. Send it to the consort's mansion.

In the early morning of the next day, Ming Shengdi brought up the matter and took the opportunity to deal with some officials whom he disliked. All the courtiers were scolded and bowed their heads tremblingly. At the same time, they guessed in their hearts who did it.And the most terrified was Xia Qin who was still confined in the mansion.

That night, the prime minister changed into night clothes and quietly went to the Prince's Mansion. Xia Qin was drinking from a wine jug, and the slightly cloudy wine flowed down his neck into his open collar. Two maidservants knelt on his legs Beside, beat his leg, this is what the Prime Minister saw when he came, he was so angry that he walked up to him, "Your Highness, what are you doing?"

"The emperor asked you to reflect in the mansion. You should cultivate your moral character. Now that the trouble is like this, if the emperor finds out, can you still do it?" The prime minister walked up to him, frowned, and stared at the two thinly dressed The maidservant said, "Retire first."

"Don't go...don't go..." Xia Qin didn't seem to hear his angry scolding, seeing the maid walking away, he stumbled to his feet and staggered after her.

The blue veins on the prime minister's forehead twitched, he fisted his hands, and suddenly raised his hand to push him onto the bed, "His Royal Highness, wake up! If you continue like this, you really are not afraid that the emperor will abolish your crown prince!" position?"

"Prince, prince! It's a big deal not to be such a poor prince!" Xia Qin slammed the wine jar in his hand on the ground, stood up with his feet, his eyes were red, "Uncle, do you think I have the dignity of a prince, father I'm afraid he has long wanted to abolish my crown prince! He only has that bitch Xia Zijin in his heart. There has never been a crown prince. As the crown prince, a eunuch would dare to bully this crown prince because of her. She is just an actress who came out of a brothel, how can this crown prince be inferior to her? Father is so eccentric."

The prime minister watched him go berserk, and his tone revealed obvious anger, "So His Royal Highness asked the assassin to stay outside to assassinate Princess Pearl?"

When Xia Zijin encountered an assassin, the biggest suspect was Xia Qin, who had a fight with her before. Now there is a lot of rumors in the court, saying that it was Xia Qin who did it secretly. It took him a lot of effort to suppress those remarks.

Seeing that he was insulting Xia Zijin all the time at this moment, my heart felt cold.With Xia Qin's appearance, it was obvious that he had lost his mind. If he was in a rage, he might not have sent secret guards to assassinate Xia Zijin.

"Shut up!" Xia Qin had known those rumors for a long time, and now he spit them out of the prime minister's mouth, and he couldn't help shouting angrily at the prime minister's suspicious eyes, "The prince will take her life sooner or later, but This incident was not done by the prince. Is this uncle suspicious of the prince?"

The prime minister met his cold eyes, couldn't help his heart skip a beat, and silently lowered his head, "I don't dare."

Xia Qin sneered again and again, walked to the table, took a few swigs of herbal tea to wash off his drunkenness, turned his head and saw the worried eyes of the prime minister, he raised his hand and pressed his head, and said apologetically: "Uncle, the previous The prince is reckless, I hope uncle will not take it to heart."

"Your Highness is serious." Seeing that he had finally regained his clarity, the prime minister secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Xia Qin's mother and concubine were his own daughters, and it was already destined that their prime minister's mansion would be tied to Xia Qin.

Even if he wants to change sides now, no one else dares to accept him.If Xia Tianqin is going to spend his days in a daze like just now, then his prime minister's mansion will really be over.

Xia Tian pulled up his sleeve robe, sat on a chair, and asked the prime minister to sit opposite him. He had just sobered up, and his brain was still aching. What about the prince?"

"Those rumors, I have suppressed them on behalf of His Highness, but they have spread to the emperor's ears to some extent. Maybe the Emperor will ask His Highness to go and ask questions." The prime minister rested his fingers on the table and tapped one after another, " Your Highness needs to make preparations earlier."

Xia Qin frowned irritably, pondered for a moment, then nodded, "Uncle, the Crown Prince knows about this, you'd better leave quickly, don't let anyone see you coming to the Crown Prince."

The prime minister nodded, put the hood back on his head, and left in a hurry
And Xia Zijin didn't know what was going on outside at all, she just felt that she was in the boundless darkness at the moment, she opened her mouth to make a sound, but she couldn't say anything, she couldn't move, a dead breath almost swallowed her whole.

The sense of oppression invaded her heart along her limbs, and in a blink of an eye, she became an abandoned woman who died miserably in her previous life, like mud on the ground, and no one cared about her life or death.

Xia Shengqing stayed by her side all day and night, but she didn't see her wake up. She was so anxious that she specially invited Yuanshou Zhang to feel her pulse. Unfortunately, Xia Zijin's pulse was stable. Logically, she should have woken up long ago.

Zhang Yuanshou frowned, puzzled, shook his head, stroked his beard and stood up, looking at Xia Shengqing apologetically, "Nine thousand years old, I really can't diagnose what's wrong with the princess. , the princess's pulse and breath are very stable, if she still hasn't woken up, it can only be said that she doesn't want to wake up."

"Don't want to wake up?" Xia Shengqing clenched the palms in her sleeves tightly and muttered to herself, "Director Zhang, do you know why she doesn't want to wake up?"

"This..." Zhang Yuanshou looked awkward, "This will take nine thousand years to wait for Her Royal Highness to wake up and ask, to see what the princess has in mind. As for the rest, I don't know."

Xia Shengqing became more worried when she heard his diagnosis, and forced a polite smile, "Thank you, Xin'er, for sending Director Zhang out."

Yard Zhang arched his hands, picked up the medicine box on the table, and followed Xiner out.

Xin'er's eyes were red, like a rabbit, even with a thick layer of powder, it couldn't hide the bruises under her eyes. When she came back holding the handkerchief, she was only thinking about Xia Zijin, only thinking about going Walking forward, without paying attention, he directly bumped into a person's chest.

She quickly blessed her body and was about to apologize. When she looked up, she saw Zhenwen was looking at her with a tired face, worried. What's blocking here, get out of the way, I'm going to see the princess."

Seeing that she was about to walk away, Zhenwen subconsciously reached out and grabbed her, "Xin'er, can you think about yourself, look at yourself, can you still hold on? Princess, the princess is nine thousand years old and the prince is watching, you should take a good rest for a while."

Xin'er was hugged by her, her brows were involuntarily frowned, and she pulled her hand in displeasure, but his wrist was tightly held by him, "Zhenwen, let go, I am the princess's maid, so I naturally want to care about the princess." Yes, let go quickly, if someone sees..."

"So what if I see it?" Ever since Xia Zijin fell into a coma, Xin'er has been ignoring him, blaming him for not going to pick up Xia Zijin that day, which caused Xia Zijin to be injured. Zhenwen sighed quietly in his heart, watching Looking at her with extremely sharp eyes, "If I see it, I will propose marriage to the princess and marry you home."

Xin'er obviously didn't expect him to say such a thing, she stopped struggling involuntarily, stared at him with her mouth wide open, was stunned for a while, and then said, "Zhenwen, are you crazy?"

"I'm not crazy!" After these few days, Zhenwen thought clearly that he treats Xin'er differently from those girls in Hualou, "Xin'er, I really like you. Something happened to the princess , I know you are worried, but you can't just ignore me like this."

"Xin'er..." Zhenwen pulled her into his arms and wrapped her arms tightly around her, "Don't you just have the heart to see me sad? Don't you like me?"

His tone was low, full of sadness, Xin'er's heart trembled, she raised her head, and bumped into the hurt look in his eyes.

After a while, Xin'er lowered her head, her long eyelashes trembled, and she was about to refuse, Xia Shengqing's surprised voice suddenly came from the room, both of them were startled, they subconsciously turned their heads and looked at each other, Xin'er Immediately, he got out of Zhenwen's arms, opened the door and went in.

Immediately afterwards, Xin'er saw Xia Zijin trying to sit up with her body upright, while Xia Shengqing was supporting her at the side. At that moment, she burst into tears with excitement, covered her mouth and walked up to Xia Zijin, "Princess, You are awake."

"Xin'er, you've worked hard these past few days." Xia Zijin shifted her gaze from Xia Shengqing to her face, saw her haggard expression, moved her lips twice, and said with a smile.

Seeing Xin'er like this, I'm afraid she hasn't closed her eyes for the past few days.Xin'er raised her sleeves to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, "Whatever the princess wants to eat, this servant will tell the small kitchen to make it for you."

"Xin'er, this princess doesn't want to eat for the time being, go down and rest first, don't burn yourself out, this princess doesn't want to take care of her maid just after waking up." Xia Zijin looked at the following Zhenwen, who came in behind Xin'er, covered her lips and let out a chuckle.

Only then did Xin'er stand up and retreat, the stone that had been hanging in her heart for the past few days finally fell to the ground.Zhenwen smiled gratefully at Xia Zijin, and hurriedly followed him out.

Xia Zijin couldn't help but chuckled and shook her head. Seeing her like this, Xia Shengqing couldn't help but recall what Zhang Yuanshou said before, and frowned accordingly.
