The second owner said with a trembling voice, "I don’t know! Just now a patient who was treated in our Medical Hall turned out to be an officer from the imperial guards, and then his subordinate reported that something happened in the palace, and the Empress told him to hurry into the Imperial Palace!"
Imperial Palace, Bixia Hall.
Princess Ning An, who was slapped down the stairs by Princess Xinyang yesterday and suffered injuries all over her body, was now holding Qin Chuyu hostage with a dagger.
By her side and behind her stood no fewer than ten experts, poised and ready, to prevent anyone from snatching Qin Chuyu back from her grasp.
A large number of imperial guards lay in ambush outside Bixia Hall, with archers also ready for action.
Princess Ning An looked towards Empress Xiao and fearlessly said, "Don’t act rashly. Killing me is a minor issue, but no one can guarantee that I won’t accidentally cut your son’s throat as I fall."
Empress Xiao had never expected that Princess Ning An would be so quick to seek a fight to the death with them, revealing that she could no longer hide her fearlessness. Had she simply given up on pretending?
Empress Xiao had to admit that an ordinary person couldn’t be as resolute as Ning An.
Indeed, this was a woman with audacity!
After being placed under house arrest in Bixia Hall, Princess Ning An immediately began to assess the chances of turning the tables against the hostile winds. Princess Xinyang had displayed an absolute power at Jinluan Hall that could not be taken away; the Emperor doted on her, but Xinyang did not indulge her.
It was only a matter of time before she was exposed.
Instead of sitting around waiting to die, it was better to take the initiative and catch them off guard!
"Mother, I’m scared... sob sob..."
Qin Chuyu cried out in terror.
Empress Xiao’s heart shattered. She wished she could tear this woman, who wouldn’t even spare a child, to pieces!
What would her brother do if he were here?
Her brother would surely say, "Stop crying. Would you not be ashamed of a man letting out tears like leaking urine?"
"Stop crying!" Empress Xiao took a deep breath and sternly said, "You are a prince! Hold those tears back!"
Qin Chuyu was taken aback at first, then cried even harder, "I can’t hold them back... sob sob..."
Empress Xiao was both angry and heartbroken. She suppressed her emotions and coldly looked at Ning An, "What exactly do you want?"
Princess Ning An said coldly, "Prepare a carriage, send us out of the city! No one is allowed to follow. Otherwise, your son and I will die together!"
Steward Su looked at Empress Xiao with concern.
Empress Xiao clenched her fists and said, "...Prepare the carriage!"
"Ah!" Qin Chuyu shrieked in terror! ƒreewebɳovel.com
