Children of Loulan
Chapter 84 Someone wants her life
When she thought that the hateful old man was going to die tragically in front of her eyes, Concubine Xian could no longer suppress the surging joy in her heart! Especially when she imagined that due to the death of this old man, the bitch queen who had always been against her would fall into extreme sadness and despair, she was so happy! At this moment, Concubine Xian could no longer suppress her excitement and wanted to rush over to witness it all with her own eyes!
Seeing her master so happy, Yumei also became particularly happy. She carefully supported Concubine Xian, pretending nothing had happened, and walked into the Imperial Garden together.
After the two entered the imperial garden, they hid in a relatively safe place. Seeing that there was no one around, they secretly watched the situation over there at Hanguli's side. After a short rest, Hanguli's expression and complexion had recovered. Although she was still a little exhausted, she was much stronger than before. At least her face looked a little more rosy and she stopped sweating.
She looked at Dale, who was anxious and tearful, tenderly, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and whispered to him in a comforting voice:
"Don't cry, Dale. I'm safe now!"
When he saw his young lady finally wake up from the pain she had just felt, Dahl was so excited that he didn't even bother to wipe away the tears on his cheeks. He just kept sobbing and asked:
"Miss, you scared me just now. How do you feel now? Are you feeling unwell?"
Hanguli looked at Dal's face, which was dirty from tears and hastily wiped, and couldn't help feeling pity. She smiled and stretched out her hand, gently wiped Dal's cheek, and said softly:
"Look at you, you're almost turning into a little cat!"
Hearing that the young lady was still in the mood to tease him, Darl knew that the young lady must be fine, but his heart was still filled with grievance and distress, so he muttered and scolded:
"Oh, Miss! How can you still have the leisure to joke around? I was really scared to death just now!"
While the master and servant were still greeting each other, Madam Taji, panting and sweating, came running over in a hurry. She ran all the way and finally came to a small intersection in the imperial garden. As soon as she arrived here, she saw Hanguli and her maid laughing and playing.
After seeing that the two were safe and sound, Nanny finally felt relieved. After feeling relieved, she began to carefully examine the rockery that Hanguli was leaning on. After a careful inspection, she found no signs of looseness. After confirming that it was safe,
The nanny heaved a sigh of relief, then stretched out her hand to hold the stone beside her, breathing heavily. The palace maid who came with her was holding a tray in her hand and was also out of breath.
At this time, Aunt Taji finally felt relieved, but at the same time, Concubine Xian, who was hiding not far away, could not be happy at all. In order to witness this wonderful show with her own eyes, she had been waiting here for half an hour! At first, she hid near the fork in the road and watched Aunt Taji run all the way into the imperial garden; then, under the guidance of Yumei, she chose to take a shortcut and arrived here in advance.
However, at this moment, when she saw the panting Madam Taji and Hanguli smiling happily with her maid, her anger was instantly ignited, and she had no place to vent her anger. She glared at Yumei fiercely and asked in a low voice:
"Didn't they say that the rockery stone would become loose?"
Her words were full of complaints and anger. Hearing her displeasure, Yumei immediately lowered her head and said:
"It was my fault for not thinking carefully enough to find out which rockery had the problem!"
Concubine Xian knew very well that Yumei was not to blame for this incident, and she could only blame her bad luck. At that time, she accidentally heard that Madam Taji was about to go to Yunhe Hall to give Hanguli precious ginseng. Not only that, she also learned that the nearby rockery was a great safety hazard and could roll down at any time.
So, Concubine Xian came up with a plan to take this opportunity to teach the queen a lesson. However, due to time constraints, she failed to plan and deploy carefully in advance, and the result was the opposite of what she wanted, and her plan failed.
Seeing that everything was calm and several people were unharmed, Concubine Xian was furious. She raised her fist angrily and smashed it against the stone beside her. She gritted her teeth and said:
"Damn it! I let you escape for nothing! You're lucky this time, but next time, I will never fail again! When the time comes, I will definitely send someone to push that rock down and kill you on the spot!"
After saying this, a hint of determination flashed in Concubine Xian's eyes.
But just as Concubine Xian was still filled with resentment, Yumei beside her suddenly trembled as if she had received an electric shock, and then desperately grabbed Concubine Xian's arm. At the same time, Yumei's voice also trembled due to extreme nervousness:
"Mother...mother, you...you look! Is that stone...that stone moving?"
Xianfei was startled by Yumei's sudden action, but when she felt the power coming from Yumei's hand, she turned her head to look at her and looked in the direction of Yumei's finger. Sure enough, she saw a creepy scene - the stone above Hanguli was actually moving slightly! Although the movement was not large, in this quiet and deserted environment, such a weird scene was enough to scare people.
When Concubine Xian finally confirmed that the stone was indeed moving, her heart seemed to be in turmoil, and the originally burning anger was instantly replaced by joy. She stared at the stone with wide eyes, not blinking, with excitement and anticipation flashing in her eyes. Gradually, a smug smile crept onto her face.
"God is helping me!"
Concubine Xian couldn't help but whisper, her voice full of irrepressible excitement. She seemed to have foreseen what was going to happen next.
Madam Taji, who had just taken a few deep breaths, was about to tidy up her hair which had been messed up by running in panic. At this moment, she habitually raised her head and glanced in the direction of Hanguli. However, it was this quick glance that made her also notice the shaking stone.
Unlike Concubine Xian, Madam Taji was closer to the stone, so she not only saw the stone shaking, but also vaguely sensed that there was a person hiding behind the stone. This sudden discovery shocked her, and she opened her mouth wide, wanting to shout, but she was afraid of alerting the enemy, so she could only swallow the cry back.
So at this moment, she didn't care about her messy hair. She walked forward tremblingly, trying to control herself not to look at the stone, so as not to be discovered by that person that she already knew of his existence. It was also at this moment that Aunt Taji understood that everything that happened today was deliberately arranged by someone.
Someone wanted to kill her and Hanguli. She was the queen's person, and the queen would be sad if she died. And ever since the queen invited an imperial physician for Hanguli on the day of her thanksgiving, it was said that many newcomers wanted to get close to the queen through her. If she died too, those newcomers who wanted to get close to the queen would be scared and would not dare to try to get close to the queen again.
