Xiangmen Concubine: The Emperor's Abandoned Concubine

Chapter 597 Bold
Behind the gauze curtain, came the old empress dowager's old sneer: "An heir? Hsinchu, are you cursing the entire royal family?"

The look of panic on Hsinchu's face was even stronger, but there was no trace of timidity in his eyes: "Hsinchu dare not, Hsinchu is just telling the truth. Hsinchu has no other intentions, just worried about the safety of His Royal Highness."

"Hmph!" The Empress Dowager snorted coldly: "Xinzhu, are you worried about the safety of His Highness the Crown Prince? Could it be that you suspect that Aijia will hurt Aijia's great-grandson?"

As soon as these words were said, the temperature in the entire bedroom suddenly dropped.Dong Han, whose eyes showed panic just now, now looks at Hsinchu coldly, with a look of watching the show in his eyes.

A little servant girl dared to disobey the Empress Dowager's will again and again. She was curious, how would this Hsinchu die?
Unexpectedly, not only did she guess wrong, even the empress dowager, who was leaning behind the gauze curtain with a lazy expression, also guessed wrong.

Ruan Mianmian took a step forward with Xiao Jiujiu in her arms, and raised her eyes to look directly at the gauze curtain. Those eyes seemed to be able to see the empress dowager reclining on the soft couch through the thick gauze curtain.

"The empress dowager was joking. The empress dowager is the great-grandmother of the prince, so she will not hurt her grandson." Suddenly, she changed the subject, her eyes fell on the chair, and at the same time she made a gesture to the maid following behind her. Wink.

"Wrap your hands with your sleeves, tear off the cushion, and throw it at Donghan!" Ruan Mianmian lowered her voice, and said to the maid as she passed by her.

The court lady nodded slightly, and under the surprised eyes of everyone, she tore off the cushion on the chair instantly with lightning speed.

"Ah! Scorpion!"

Donghan let out a scream and quickly hid back.She hid quickly, but the maid's hand was even faster.When Dong Han took a step back, he had already precisely thrown the cushion on her face.

After screaming, Donghan, who fell to the ground, quickly crawled away the cushion, but his cheeks, which were still beautiful just now, had turned purple now.Even, slightly swollen.

"Ah!" Many court ladies obviously didn't know that there was such a poisonous scorpion under the chair, and quickly backed away in fright.Some of the timid ones were so frightened that they fell limply to the ground.

He saw the poisonous scorpion crawling towards him, rolling and crawling on the ground.After a while, similar screams came from the outer hall, and for a while, the bedroom of Renshou Palace became a mess.

Behind the thick gauze curtain, the voice of the Empress Dowager was filled with anger: "Quick, protect His Highness the Crown Prince!"

"Empress Dowager, be careful, the poisonous scorpion has entered!" A court lady with sharp eyes shouted after seeing the poisonous scorpion crawling into the gauze curtain.

"Ah! Hurry up... Hurry up and protect Aijia!" The Empress Dowager shouted in horror.

Ruan Mianmian stood where she was, holding Xiao Jiujiu in her arms, and looked coldly at the chaotic masters and servants of Renshou Palace.When the guards outside came in, they removed all the poisonous scorpions with great skill, and it took only half a cup of tea.

The sneer in his eyes became heavier.She hugged Xiao Jiujiu, and gently stroked Xiao Jiujiu's small body: "Don't be afraid!"

Xiao Jiujiu bit her pink lips, her dark eyes flickered, she wanted to look at the ground, but she didn't dare to.The little hands were still holding on to her skirt, and said in a childish voice: "Bugs... bugs, bite!"

As if her heart was being pulled hard by something, Ruan Mianmian gave the maid she brought over a cold look.The maid noticed her gaze and nodded slightly.

In the blink of an eye, all the maids who were in the palace just now fell to the ground.And their bodies were covered with poisonous scorpions.When the guards saw it, they all took a step back in horror.

"Go and invite the emperor!" Ruan Mianmian said coldly.

The empress dowager's panicked voice came from behind the gauze curtain: "Come on, stop that court lady!"

After all, the Empress Dowager changed the subject and directly fell on Ruan Mianmian: "Xinzhu, you are so brave, you dare to have someone put a poisonous scorpion into Aijia's Renshou Palace, and you want to murder Aijia's emperor!" Sun!"

Ruan Mianmian snorted and sneered, if she hadn't deliberately brought a court lady to Renshou Palace today, the empress dowager would have accused her of lying with her eyes open, she would have no way of denying it.

"Through the thick gauze curtain, the Empress Dowager can actually see that it was Hsinchu who put the poisonous scorpion on the chair?"

"The empress dowager coughs continuously and has been sick for a long time. Now she is talking so angry?"

"If the Empress Dowager really misses His Royal Highness, shouldn't he invite Imperial Physician Zhong to Renshou Palace at this time to feel His Royal Highness's pulse and see if His Highness is frightened?"

With three rhetorical questions in a row, Ruan Mianmian asked the empress dowager behind the gauze curtain, dumbfounded.Wan Qiu, who was beside the Empress Dowager, yelled sharply: "A mere maidservant dares to hide a poisonous scorpion to murder the Empress Dowager and His Royal Highness, come here, drag this maidservant out and chop her up!"

The maid who followed Ruan Mianmian blocked her behind and stared coldly at everyone in Renshou Palace.At some point, there was a long sword in her hand.

Ruan Mianmian smiled softly: "I don't know, when did the master of Renshou Palace become Aunt Wanqiu?"

Wan Qiu, who was supporting the Empress Dowager behind the gauze curtain, was taken aback for a moment. Knowing that she had said something wrong, she hurriedly said, "Hmph! The master of the Renshou Palace has always been the Empress Dowager! You, a slave, dare to question the Empress Dowager. Identity, crime plus one class!"

"Come on!"

"Lan Qiu!" The Empress Dowager suddenly said, stopping Wan Qiu's words.Sitting behind the gauze curtain, the Empress Dowager's complexion was still morbidly pale.

The corners of her lips were slightly raised, and her eyes were bright: "Xinzhu, are you still Hsinchu?"

Ruan Mianmian smiled respectfully and calmly, but through the thick gauze curtain, the Empress Dowager inside couldn't be seen.

"Then, is the Empress Dowager still the Empress Dowager who loved His Highness the Crown Prince?"

Wan Qiu, who was standing beside the Empress Dowager, took a deep breath.The guards who were cleaning up the body of the maid outside also trembled slightly when they heard this.

Their eyes stared vigilantly at the maid who was holding His Highness the Crown Prince.They all knew the maid of fate, she was the personal maid beside the Empress of Jiuyou Palace.

In the past, the court lady followed the Prime Minister to Renshou Palace, which was considered a rule.Later, because His Royal Highness was frightened at Renshou Palace and called out, the maid changed her temper.

She wholeheartedly protected His Highness the Crown Prince, and even prevented the maids of Renshou Palace from touching a single hair of His Highness the Crown Prince.And His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not get close to the Empress Dowager when he arrives at the Renshou Palace.

It's just that the Prime Minister was there in the past, so they thought that the court lady would have such courage.When I saw her today, I realized that the court lady was not relying on the prime minister.

But the empress has not yet returned to the palace, so I don't know where it is. Isn't this maid afraid of losing her head if she is so presumptuous in front of the empress dowager?
"Bold!" The Empress Dowager scolded coldly.

Ruan Mianmian saw that the maid was being blocked and wanted to fight her way out, she shook her head slightly, motioning for the maid to stand beside her.

"Bold?" Ruan Mianmian said with a slight smile, "The Empress Dowager has said so many things today, but this one is finally right."

The empress dowager sitting inside gasped for breath: "You..."

With a smile, he said lightly: "The Empress Dowager is indeed right, Hsinchu is bold today. But if Hsinchu is not bold, it will be Hsinchu and His Royal Highness who will die in Renshou Palace today."
