The Demon Lord Forced to Marry the Female Leader
Chapter 4 Return to the tent to meet the emperor
After walking on the mountain road for another half an hour, we finally saw the tents used for rest during royal hunting trips. These tents were large and small. The largest bright yellow tent in the middle was probably where the original body's emperor father lived.
There are a few small tents nearby, which should be where the accompanying concubines and princes live. There are densely packed patrolling soldiers outside, guarding these hunting and rest tents like a solid fortress.
The wolves will definitely not dare to come, I am finally safe and can have a good sleep.
As he was thinking this, Chu Wan Ning and his party walked to the door, and the guards all dismounted from their horses.
Chu Wan Ning relaxed and just got off the horse, but she passed out. After all, she was still a girl, and she was frightened all the way. She finally fainted due to exhaustion...
Before she fainted, she saw Fu Qian running towards her with a worried look on his face.
The scene was extremely chaotic, alarming the people living in the bright yellow tent. A bright yellow figure came out of the tent, with a woman in a red dress next to it, and there were hurried footsteps in front of the door.
The eunuch screamed:
"Her Royal Highness the Princess has fainted, please call the imperial physician!"
"You bastards, if anything happens to my son, I'll hold you responsible!"
I don’t know how much time had passed, but Chu Wan Ning finally woke up.
She slept well and all the fatigue in her body disappeared. Before she opened her eyes, she heard someone talking quietly next to her.
"Madame Tu, didn't I tell you clearly to take her to the ravine? Let her be eaten by wolves, and then we will get rid of that little bastard. Then my child will be the only prince, and he will inherit the throne in the future! Why is she back again?"
This was a noble lady speaking, and the most vicious words came out of her pampered mouth.
Is that why she was tricked into the mountains? She could be eaten by wolves and it wouldn't be her fault. If something went wrong, she could just say the princess was disobedient and ran away. There would be no evidence, what a good plan.
"My lord, I failed to do my job well. Please punish me!"
As Nanny Tu spoke, she knelt down and cried and confessed her guilt.
"Please give me another chance, I will live up to your expectations next time!"
"Shh, keep your voice down. This is a tent. Be careful because the walls may have ears."
The imperial concubine became a little anxious and tried to cover Nanny Tu's mouth in panic.
Nanny Tu knew that she had upset the empress again, so she started slapping herself in the face.
"It's all my fault, it's all my fault, please don't blame me, madam. It's not good to disturb your body. You are pregnant now. Please don't be angry. It's all my fault, it's all my fault..."
Oh no! This imperial concubine is pregnant! ...
Chu Wan Ning was speechless for a while. Why didn't she do some good deeds for her child when she was pregnant? She was still plotting against me. She felt extremely disdainful.
Alas, why am I in her account? I guess I must have a younger brother...
Just as I was thinking about it, suddenly a eunuch's thin voice reported:
"The Emperor has arrived!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a bright yellow figure opened the curtain and rushed in.
"My beloved, I came to see Ning'er after I finished my government affairs. Thank you for your hard work. Ning'er fainted just now. Your tent is the closest to her. I was so worried about her that I arranged for her to come to your place first."
As the emperor spoke, he helped the imperial concubine who was paying her respects to the emperor stand up and helped her sit down on a chair in the tent.
"You are three months pregnant, so you don't have to perform the formalities. Don't tire the little prince in your belly. You won't have to perform the formalities in the future."
"Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty. Ning'er! I feel sorry for her. Alas, how much suffering this child has endured every day. I really feel sorry for her, wu~ Your Majesty..."
After saying that, she pressed against the emperor's chest. The imperial concubine's acting skills were really first-rate. She even squeezed out a few tears just from these few words. Her beauty was so stunning that it made the emperor feel pity for her. But he didn't know that she was the mastermind behind the murder.
Alas, Chu Wan Ning thought:
Oh, the intrigues in the palace are so terrible... After doing so many bad things, aren’t you afraid of stepping on trouble when you go out?
Damn! Now that I'm here, I have to face what I have to face, and I can't let anyone bully me. Since my original body really lost her life because of the imperial concubine's scheme, I will avenge her and protect her brother.
At this moment, the eunuch next to him discovered that Chu Wan Ning was eavesdropping with narrowed eyes, and then he knelt on the ground with a plop and shouted in a hoarse voice:
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, and Congratulations, Your Highness the Princess is out of danger and has woken up!"
Upon hearing this, Chu Wan Ning almost spat out a mouthful of blood. He was just idling around and analyzing the situation! He was reported by this old man. Bah! Bah! You don't need to report it, you bootlicker!
Now I can’t pretend anymore, I’ve got to just go for it!
"Ahem... ahem, father, I pay my respects to you... ahem..."
Chu Wan Ning coughed violently, almost coughing out her lungs. She struggled to get off the bed, but her legs went weak and she fell to the emperor's feet. The emperor quickly helped her up and said,
"My son has suffered. You have never suffered before. If your mother were still alive, she would be so distressed! Alas, it's all my fault for not taking good care of you and your sister. I am also wrong. I feel guilty for the spirit of your mother in heaven! My dear child, if anything happened to you today, I would be worried! I know you are a steady child. How could you go out without permission and break into the hunting restricted area? There are all kinds of wild animals in the deep mountains and old forests, you silly child!"
After that, he helped Chu Wan Ning to the bedside, let her lie down and rest, touched her pale face, and tucked the corner of the quilt for her. He really couldn't imagine how a seven-year-old girl could survive in the snowy night in the mountains. She would have frozen to death. She really had great luck and a blessed fate!
Chu Wan Ning blinked her big eyes, her deer-like pupils were wet, as if covered with a layer of mist, which made people feel pity. She stared at the emperor and said with a little sob:
"Father, it snowed early yesterday morning. It's cold, and your knees are easily cold. Every year, you suffer from the same old pain, and the pain doesn't go away after a few days. I can't bear to see you suffer this. So I came to ask Concubine Xi Hui how to be filial to you. Nanny Tu from Concubine Xi Hui's palace told me that there is a kind of Ganoderma lucidum near this mountain. It is most effective when it snows for the first time. It is specially used to treat leg diseases. So I want to do my best to be filial to you."
Chu Wan Ning paused and sobbed twice as she spoke. She continued:
"But I didn't expect that Nanny Tu took me to the mountains and disappeared! Father, do you know how scared I was? Later, I was really scared, so I went to a nearby village and met a friend to travel with me. However, the mountains were covered with wild beasts due to heavy snow and there was not enough food. The hungry wolves discovered that we were alone and attacked us in groups. I was so scared that I fled to the cliff with my companions, but we were attacked by wolves and fell off the cliff. I am still scared when I think about it now. Fortunately, the boy was strong and grabbed a vine to get into the cave where the pharmacist was resting halfway up the mountain. Otherwise, I am afraid that father would not be able to see me now."
By the time Chu Wan Ning had finished describing what had happened, Nanny Tu had already knelt on the ground, kowtowed and begged for mercy. She cried and snotted:
"Your Majesty, please spare me, Your Majesty, please spare me. What Her Royal Highness said was not entirely true. It was not me who led Her Royal Highness out. It was Her Royal Highness who dragged me out. Who knew that Her Royal Highness ran so fast that I couldn't keep up. The road was slippery after the snow, and I slipped and fell. When I got up, I couldn't find Her Royal Highness. Your Majesty, please be wise!"
"Really? Do you have the right to speak? You didn't come back to report the serious incident of not finding the princess, and let the princess be surrounded by wolves. It's obvious that you have evil intentions, you bastard! And! Do you have the right to question the princess' words? You are rebelling! You dog slave! Someone! Someone! Take this old man out and chop him up!"
The emperor scolded angrily.
"…Your Majesty, please don't do that. Madam Tu is an old lady by my side. I brought her from my mansion. I am pregnant and need someone who knows me well to take care of me. Please spare her life, Your Majesty! I promise to discipline her well in the future… Please, Your Majesty… Ah…"
Concubine Xi Hui suddenly sat on the couch, holding her stomach.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, my stomach aches. I'm afraid I'm having a miscarriage... Ah... Please find a royal doctor to save our child, Your Majesty..."
Concubine Xi Hui's screams became more and more miserable, as if a knife was twisting her stomach in pain.
"Wan Ning, get up quickly. Let the imperial concubine lie down and rest. You go to your tent to rest first. You have just recovered from a serious illness. Don't wait here. I will visit you later."
The emperor said to Chu Wan Ning anxiously.
Chu Wan Ning followed the example of others and bowed to the emperor, then left the tent.
Before leaving, she looked at Concubine Xi Hui's face. Concubine Xi Hui also looked at her. She paused, a sneer appeared on her charming face, and there seemed to be countless cold knives stabbing at her in her eyes.
Concubine Xi Hui continued to shout, and it really sounded like that.
Forget it, let’s go see Fu Qian first.
