The Legend of Zhen Huan: Entering the Palace to Become the Queen Mother

"Eunuch Su, now that my sister is injured, it's only natural for the Sixth Prince to worry about his mother. How about I take care of the Sixth Prince while you go and take care of other things first?"

Seeing that Su Peisheng was somewhat interested, An Lingrong took the initiative to step forward and volunteered to take on the task of taking care of the Sixth Prince.

Originally, she was planning to follow him directly, but when she thought of the Sixth Prince, she decided to stay.

She couldn't let her sister get hurt again at this time, so she would definitely take good care of the Sixth Prince on her sister's behalf.

"In that case, the Sixth Prince will be handed over to Concubine Jing."

When Su Peisheng saw that An Lingrong took the initiative to take on this matter, he immediately felt relieved and agreed to it.

When the imperial physician heard the news that the emperor had been assassinated, he hurried over.

"Greetings to the Emperor."

"Imperial Physician, come and see the Imperial Concubine."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The imperial physician bowed respectfully to the emperor before coming over to carefully examine the imperial concubine's wound.

"How about it?"

The emperor asked urgently.

"Your Majesty, although the wound is quite deep, it has not damaged any of the tendons or veins. The dagger is not poisonous, so as long as you take good care of yourself, you will surely recover quickly."

The imperial physician finally breathed a sigh of relief after he had examined the patient thoroughly.

He bowed to the emperor and began to explain.

"Why hasn't the concubine woken up yet?"

The emperor looked at Fu Cha Zhixi, who was lying on the bed with a pale face, and asked worriedly.

"My Lady, he probably lost too much blood just now, so he can't wake up for the time being, but he should be able to wake up tomorrow."

The imperial physician looked at the emperor's expression and quickly began to explain.

"You better take good care of your mother."

The emperor took a deep breath and then relaxed, his eyes looking at Fu Cha Zhixi's pale face with pity.

If Xier hadn't blocked the attack for him, the palace maid's knife would have pierced his chest, and the person lying here might have been him.

Thinking of this, the emperor became even more angry. Who sent this palace maid? Could it be the Eighth Palace?

The emperor immediately thought of Old Eight, but then he thought that Old Eight and others should not be able to cause trouble now.

Could it be Old Fourteen?

But does the Fourteenth Prince really have such ability that he can bribe people in the palace to do things for him even though he is thousands of miles away?

Nowadays, the only person who has such ability is probably the Queen Mother. Although the Queen Mother is still unconscious, she may not have left a backup plan for the Fourteenth Prince.

After all, she even protects the Queen so much, not to mention the Fourteenth Prince. I'm afraid she will only leave more for him.

While thinking, the emperor returned to the front hall from the back hall.

Su Peisheng had already arrested the young palace maid he had just assassinated. Only then did he realize that the person was actually Jianqiu.

The others were also stunned when they saw this, especially the royal family members who wished they were blind and could not see anything.

After all, the Queen's men assassinated the Emperor. Isn't this a huge scandal? Can these people get away with it after knowing the royal family's scandal?

"Brother, are you okay?"

When the Thirteenth Emperor saw the Emperor coming out, he quickly stood up and spoke with concern.

"It's okay, thanks to the imperial concubine for blocking it for me."

Hearing his beloved brother's concern, the emperor couldn't help but smile.

But when he saw clearly that the person who assassinated him was Jianqiu, the smile on his face immediately disappeared.

Jianqiu was forced by the guards to kneel in front of the emperor. There was no worry or fear on her face, but rather some regret.

She probably wouldn't be able to fulfill the Empress's wish in this lifetime, but she didn't expect the Emperor to get away with it.

The emperor stared at Jianqiu with a serious look and asked word by word.

"Who instructed you to do this?"

Jianqiu straightened her back and glanced at the emperor with disdain, not intending to pay any attention to him.

After all, she is not afraid of death at this moment, so naturally she will not be afraid of the emperor's anger.

"who is it!"

The emperor emphasized his tone and asked again.

"Who does your Majesty think ordered this servant?"

Jianqiu's arm was twisted tightly by the guard. She endured the pain and asked back with a disdainful tone.

"I'm asking you!"

The emperor was repeatedly provoked by Jianqiu and became very dissatisfied and raised his tone.

"Your Majesty already has the answer, so why bother asking me? Anyway, no matter what I say, you won't believe that I did this."

Jianqiu stared straight into the emperor's eyes and answered sarcastically.

"So it's the Queen?"

There was anger in the emperor's eyes, but his tone remained calm.

"Queen?"

"Hasn't the Emperor abolished your Majesty's position as Queen? Why do you still think it was your Majesty's doing?"

"Besides, the Emperor has sent people to guard Jingren Palace. How can the Empress have the power to order me around?"

Jianqiu mercilessly seized the loophole in the emperor's words and spoke sarcastically.

"This was all my idea, and has nothing to do with the Empress."

"But I know that Your Majesty will not believe what I say if I say this."

"Your Majesty, you have never believed in the Empress."

"Your Majesty, have you ever really cared about the Empress?"

"Shut up! Since she won't talk, I'll drag her to the Ministry of Punishment and torture her severely!"

The emperor didn't want Jianqiu to say anything crazy in such an occasion and make others laugh at her, so since he couldn't get anything out of her, there was no need to waste time.

"emperor!"

"Do you still remember the eldest prince? Did you forget all about the eldest prince after you had the sixth prince?"

Jianqiu looked at the emperor with a grim look and roared.

"Why don't you drag him out!"

The emperor frowned and spoke to the guards.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you have forgotten the eldest prince!"

"The Empress is your wife, Your Majesty, how could you treat her like this?"

Jianqiu wanted to say something, but was dragged out by the guards without mercy.

The queen subconsciously called out "Jianqiu" to the outside, but no one answered.

This made the queen a little angry, and she called again with a louder voice, but still no one answered.

"Why are you here? Where is Jianqiu?"

The queen looked at a little maid who looked unfamiliar walking in, and couldn't help but frown and asked.

"Why do you still think you are the queen? You are just a commoner now, why are you calling me that?"

The little maid walked in with a dark face and mocked the queen without any hesitation.

"Where is Jianqiu?"

The queen was too lazy to deal with such people at all. The uneasiness in her heart made her ask about Jianqiu's whereabouts again.

"Jianqiu, hum."

The little maid shook her hands and looked at the queen with disdain.

"He has probably been taken to the Ministry of Punishment by now."
