I kicked out my vicious husband and married his great-uncle
Chapter 397 How can I, a princess, endure such humiliation?
Concubine Shu looked up in horror, met the queen's understanding gaze, and then suddenly lowered her head: "Your Majesty, why do you say that?"
"Nothing, I just asked casually." The Queen looked at Princess Heshuo and said in a gentle tone, "Princess, Imperial Doctor Cao's medical skills are not very good, so please come and check Mingjia's legs."
Princess Heshuo immediately agreed and walked towards Princess Mingjia.
Princess Mingjia immediately refused: "Mother, no need. The imperial physician has already examined it and fixed it. If I take it apart and look at it again, I will have to endure the pain again. The pain of a broken leg is too painful. I can't bear it."
"It hurts too much? That's not right. The Imperial Hospital uses good medicines. Since you've used the medicines, it shouldn't be so painful." The Queen said seriously.
However, the fact is that a broken leg will still hurt, even if you use medicine.
Princess Mingjia looked a little confused and looked at Concubine Shu quickly.
However, Concubine Shu was trying her best to lower her head to reduce her presence and didn't dare to raise her head at all.
At this time, Princess Heshuo had already walked to Princess Mingjia's side.
Princess Mingjia stretched out her hand to block it: "Auntie, there is no need to treat me anymore."
Princess Heshuo chuckled: "Mingjia, you don't have to be so polite to me, just call me an old woman."
In an instant, Princess Mingjia's face turned red and white, which was so ugly.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Princess Heshuo suddenly attacked and hit Princess Mingjia hard on the leg.
However, the moment the knock was made, Princess Mingjia did not respond at all.
Instead, it was only after a moment that he let out a scream.
The queen sneered and ordered, "Qingyu, show the princess' legs. I want to see whether her legs are broken or not."
Qingyu immediately came forward with several palace maids.
Princess Mingjia was full of resentment: "Mother, are you suspicious of me? Could it be that I would joke about my own legs?"
"Mingjia, what are you talking about? I just want to confirm your injury. After all, you are the eldest princess of this dynasty, your status is noble, and you cannot afford to make any mistakes."
"Mother, since you said I am of noble status, how can you expose my legs in front of these slaves? How can I, a princess, endure such humiliation?"
The queen was not in a hurry and ordered: "Except me, the eldest princess and Princess Xie, everyone else should leave."
Including Concubine Shu, everyone had to retreat outside the palace.
The Queen looked at Princess Mingjia and said bluntly, "Now that the outsiders have left, you don't have to worry about damaging your reputation."
At this time, Qingyu and others had already arrived in front of Princess Mingjia.
Without saying a word, several people pressed her legs or rolled up her trouser legs, but Princess Mingjia struggled hard and Qingyu and others were unable to roll up her trouser legs immediately.
The queen immediately ordered: "Two more people."
Soon, two more palace maids came forward.
At this moment, the voice of Consort Xian came from outside: "Empress, what did Mingjia do wrong to make you treat her like this?"
"When is it your turn to comment on what I do?"
"You are joking, Queen. You are the head of the harem, so you don't need to explain to us what you do. But in this world, justice is always important. Mingjia calls you mother, so how can a mother treat her own daughter like this?"
"The child is mentally immature. Shouldn't a mother give her correct guidance?" the queen asked back.
"Immature? Mingjia is no longer a ten-year-old child. Her mind has matured. Your Majesty, there is no need to make excuses for your actions. It is better to save Mingjia's dignity."
"What if I don't?"
The corners of Concubine Xian's lips curved slightly: "Empress, you don't really think that we don't know why you treat Mingjia like this, do you?"
"Then please tell me, Concubine Xian, why did I treat Mingjia like this?"
Concubine Xian's eyes lightly swept over Princess Heshuo: "You feel sorry for the princess and don't want her to marry. But Daliang is coming with great momentum, and there must be a princess who wants to marry there. If you prove Mingjia's fault today, it is equivalent to controlling her. In this case, you can naturally advocate that Mingjia go to marry."
As she spoke, Consort Xian looked at Consort Shu who was standing outside and Consort De who had just arrived, and said meaningfully, "Empress, you are the head of the harem, and you should be fair. If you do such a small thing in private, you will lose the demeanor of the mother of a country."
"When Concubine Xian said this, did she conclude that Mingjia's leg was really broken?"
"No, I'm not sure. You have the final say in this harem. If you say Mingjia's leg is broken, then Mingjia's leg is broken."
These words are full of malice.
This means that the queen can confuse right and wrong in this matter.
Even if Princess Mingjia's leg was broken, the Queen could instruct the imperial physician to say that Princess Mingjia's leg was not broken.
This is Concubine Xian's sophistry.
The Queen naturally realized this. She looked at Concubine Xian and smiled, "Perhaps you were too kind in the past. I never thought that you would be such a person."
Concubine Xian looked stern, like a messenger of justice: "In the past, the Queen Mother was fair, so I naturally wouldn't say anything. But if the Queen Mother is biased, as a concubine, I must point it out. Otherwise, if the history books add this bad record of the Queen Mother, wouldn't it be my fault?"
After listening to Concubine Xian's long speech, the Queen's smile remained on her face.
She looked at Concubine Xian as if she was seeing her for the first time.
In the past, although Concubine Xian had the status of a concubine, she always behaved very humbly in the palace, and even seemed to deliberately reduce her presence.
It was also because of this that there had never been any rift between the two of them, even though one was the queen and the other was a royal concubine.
But it was not until this moment that the queen understood.
The gentleness and kindness of the past were just an illusion.
This is what Concubine Xian looks like in her true form.
The queen smiled, her eyes swept across the Shufei and Defei outside, and then looked back at the Xian Guifei: "If you have made a mistake, you will bear it. As for your so-called advice, I will listen if I want to, and ignore it if I don't want to. The reason is that I am the queen, and you are just a Guifei."
After saying that, the Queen no longer looked at Consort Xian, and directly ordered Qing Yu and the others, "Continue."
"Your Majesty, do you want to be the one who is deserted by everyone?"
The Queen smiled meaningfully: "Why, if I go against your wishes, I will be deserted by everyone? From what the Imperial Concubine said, everyone in the harem is in your hands. So, if I go against your wishes, I will be deserted by everyone, right?"
Concubine Xian's face darkened: "Your Majesty, please stop quibbling. I didn't mean that."
"Whether you have this intention or not is your business, and it is not within the scope of this palace's consideration."
After saying that, the queen looked at Princess Mingjia who was struggling on the bed.
At this moment, Princess Mingjia's legs have been exposed, but to determine whether her legs are broken or not, it is impossible to tell from the surface, and further palpation is needed.
Just when Qingyu was about to press her hand down, Princess Mingjia suddenly pushed her hard and jumped off the bed!
