The legitimate daughter brings disaster to the concubine! Seize the imperial power and the throne

Yun Fu looked at Lu Jingning in horror. Before he could beg for mercy, his mouth was blocked and he was dragged to the corridor. Soon, he could hear the muffled sound of being hit by a stick.

The miracle doctor beside him bent over and was about to leave, but was stopped by Yun Zai. The miracle doctor raised his eyes and suddenly met Lu Jingning's unfathomable eyes.

"The divine doctor is very skilled in medicine, so he must have a way to save Sister Lang, right?"

"Princess, the title of miracle doctor is not just a reputation, there must be a way." Yun Zai said.

The doctor said with a stiff upper lip: "Miss Lang has delayed too late, I can only try my best."

Lu Jingning was not angry when he heard this. He stared at Yun Fu, who was beaten to death in the yard, with burning eyes and watched her die.

Blood stained the ground.

The genius doctor standing by had a solemn look on his face. He hurried away, making the excuse that he had to make medicine for the Crown Princess and couldn't leave without her.

After guarding Lu Jinglang for more than half an hour, he finally woke up.

After waking up, Lu Jinglang cried heartbrokenly.

"Sister Lang, don't cry. I have already supported you." Lu Jingning raised his chin. Two maids carried Yunfu's body up and threw it in front of Lu Jinglang. The bloody appearance scared Lu Jinglang so much that he screamed and almost fainted again.

"Hurry...quickly take it away." Lu Jinglang shouted.

Lu Jingning waved his hand and asked someone to take the cloud bat away.

The air was still filled with a strong smell of blood, which made people feel nauseous. Lu Jinglang gasped for breath and could not calm down for a long time.

"Don't be sad, sister Lang. The miracle doctor said he will do his best to heal you." Lu Jingning placed his icy cold hand on the back of Lu Jinglang's hand, causing Lu Jinglang to shiver. "Really?"

After chatting with Lu Jinglang for a while, the sound of chaotic footsteps finally came from outside the door.

Lu Jingning smiled. The person she was waiting for finally came.

The visitor was wearing a dark brown long dress with two hibiscus hairpins inserted diagonally in her hair. She still had a charming face.

But her dress was very old-fashioned, which suppressed her good looks.

Concubine Wan!

Lu Jinglang's biological mother is also the half-sister of her mother Shangguan. She is now the concubine of Prince Shen. She was raised in the same room with Shangguan since childhood, and the two have a deep sisterly love.

Even after Shangguan got married, Concubine Wan would visit her every day.

In the past, she envied the deep sisterly love between her mother and aunt, and therefore was very close to Lu Jinglang.

It's terrifying to think about it carefully. Concubine Wan didn't stay in Prince Shen's mansion and accompanied her mother every day. It was obvious that she had some ulterior motive.

Lu Jingning took a deep breath. This situation had been set up for so many years without him noticing...

"Sister Lang!"

Concubine Wan heard that Lu Jinglang had taken the wrong medicine while she was on her way to serve the Crown Princess. She hurried to Zhongling Pavilion, and her heart almost broke when she saw her daughter lying weakly on the couch.

Lu Jinglang threw himself into Concubine Wan's arms and broke down in tears.

After crying enough, Concubine Wan looked at Lu Jingning with complaint: "Aning, Lang Jieer has always respected you, why are you so vicious and make it difficult for Lang Jieer to get pregnant?"

Since Lu Jingning dared to set up this trap, he was just waiting for Concubine Wan to come and let his mother know what evil intentions this concubine sister had!

"Concubine Wan suspects that I deliberately poisoned and murdered Sister Lang?" Lu Jingning asked back.

Concubine Wan had a son and a daughter. Her son was not around all year round and she could not develop a relationship with him, so she also took great care in nurturing her daughter.

She knows better than anyone what it means for a woman to be unable to give birth to a child.

How can I be rational and calm at this moment?

"Yunfu is the maidservant beside you. If not you, then who else could it be?" Concubine Wan's eyes were as sharp as knives, and she wished she could skin her alive.

Concubine Wan took the opportunity to show off her power: "Someone, go and ask the Crown Princess to come over!"

"Yes!"

"Let's see who dares to move!" Lu Jingning picked up the teacup on the table and smashed it hard on the ground. His voice was cold and his face was sinister.

Several maids outside the door who were about to take action paused.

Concubine Wan was displeased and pointed at Lu Jingning angrily: "Aning, you know you are wrong but don't repent, and you dare to talk back to your elders. Who taught you the rules?"

Concubine Wan gave a look, signaling the maid to go and invite the Crown Princess.

She knew clearly that if Shangguan heard about this, she would definitely not be able to bear it given her current health.

The maid glanced inside and started to leave, but before she had taken a few steps, Yun Zai and his men stopped her and covered her mouth.

"You, a concubine of Prince Shen's mansion, are you qualified to come to the Eastern Palace and call yourself an elder?" Lu Jingning pointed at Concubine Wan's nose without any hesitation: "You knew that my mother was weak, but you still dared to ask her for help. What are you thinking?"

Concubine Wan was stunned. She didn't expect Lu Jingning to be so direct. She was so angry that her face turned red: "Are you humiliating me? I am your aunt!"

"Aunt? Are you worthy? Someone, go tell Prince Shen that Concubine Wan committed a crime of insubordination. I want to see how Prince Shen manages the backyard. He actually sent someone to reach out to the East Palace. What is his intention?"

Lu Jingning got mad and sent people to Prince Shen's mansion, which frightened Concubine Wan so much that her anger was extinguished in an instant.

She gritted her teeth and asked, "Aning, do you really want to make a big deal out of this?"

"Sister Ning, mother is worried about me, that's why she said so much." Lu Jinglang forced himself to feel uncomfortable, threw off the quilt, got up from the bed and smiled in front of Lu Jingning: "Don't make such a small matter public, you will be laughed at."

Concubine Wan felt angry and distressed when she saw her daughter groveling in front of Lu Jingning, but due to the situation, she could only swallow her anger.

We must not fail at such a critical moment.

"Aning, it was my aunt who was too anxious. I didn't mean to yell at you." Concubine Wan took a deep breath and forced a smile: "Aunt shouldn't have disturbed your mother about this matter. Calm down."

Lu Jingning's eyes fell on the two maids at the door: "It seems that Concubine Wan has a lot of authority in the East Palace. The maids in the East Palace don't even listen to me, the princess, but only listen to Concubine Wan's orders."

The two maids at the door were so frightened when they heard this that they fell to their knees.

"Yunzai!"

Yunzai stepped forward.

"Drag them out, give each of them thirty strokes of the cane, and send them to the laundry department!" Lu Jingning ordered.

"Yes."

The two maids were so frightened that they kowtowed and begged for mercy.

Yun Zai ordered the guards to take the two men to the yard for execution. They were hit with thick boards, causing them to scream miserably.

"Let all the servants of Zhongling Pavilion watch the execution. They can't distinguish between the master and the servant. This is the lightest punishment. If it happens again, they will be beaten to death!"

Lu Jingning ordered with a cold face.

Upon hearing this, Concubine Wan's face turned even paler and she clenched her fists tightly under her sleeves. After this incident of killing a chicken to scare the monkeys, it would be difficult for her to establish her authority in the Eastern Palace in the future.

After thirty strokes of the stick, the two were dragged away. The bloodstains on the ground reminded everyone present that the princess was angry today.

"Concubine Wan, do you think what I did was right?" Lu Jingning narrowed his eyes and smiled at Concubine Wan.

Concubine Wan's nails were almost embedded in her flesh. She didn't understand what had happened to Lu Jingning today. He had always respected her so much in the past, but why didn't he give her any face today?

"The princess's punishment is too severe..." she said.

Lu Jingning shook his head: "This is just physical pain for a servant who betrayed his master. If I knew that there were still people who dared to betray the East Palace, I would personally peel off her skin!"

The other party was clearly saying it with a smile, but Concubine Wan and Lu Jinglang felt a chill creeping up their hearts.

I couldn't help but shudder.

"Since Sister Lang is not feeling well, Concubine Wan will stay in Prince Shen's mansion to take care of Sister Lang. As for mother, I will explain it myself."

In front of Concubine Wan, Lu Jingning ordered Yun Zai: "Pass the order down, no one is allowed to go to Linglong Pavilion without my permission!"

"Yes."

Concubine Wan was anxious: "Aning, I have always taken care of your mother. I would not feel comfortable leaving her to someone else."

"With a miracle doctor by my mother's side, why should Concubine Wan do the work of a servant? If you don't know, you might think that the Eastern Palace looks down on Prince Shen's Mansion and actually wants the concubine of Prince Shen's Mansion to serve my mother." Lu Jingning stared at Concubine Wan with a smile.

The look in his eyes seemed to see through her, and he spread his hands towards her: "I heard that my mother's token is still with Concubine Wan, so I won't bother Concubine Wan to keep it."

A sweet and fishy taste surged in Concubine Wan's throat. She gritted her teeth and swallowed it back, tightly grasping the jade token in her arms and refusing to hand it over.

"If Concubine Wan refuses to hand it over, then I can only go to Uncle Shen to ask for it in person." Lu Jingning said.

Prince Shen was known for his gentleness and modesty, especially when dealing with his elder brother, the Crown Prince, to whom he was extremely respectful. The two of them always gave the impression to the outside world that they were friendly and respectful brothers.

If this matter is brought to the attention of Prince Shen, Concubine Wan will definitely not gain any benefit.

Concubine Wan took a deep breath and reluctantly handed over the jade token. Lu Jingning reached out to take it. This was his mother's jade token.

In her previous life, Concubine Wan held her mother's jade token and had unimpeded access to the Eastern Palace.

Taking back the jade token now is just the first step.

Lu Jingning raised his chin and said mercilessly: "Send the guest away!"

Concubine Wan almost bit her teeth. Before leaving, she glanced at Lu Jingning with gloomy eyes and left with Lu Jinglang unwillingly.
