Rong Fei is not honored
Chapter 655 The Farmer and the Snake
Moreover, pregnant women are more vulnerable than ordinary people. Mother's hand was almost ruined, but Uya only showed signs of miscarriage. It seemed impossible no matter how you looked at it.
Granny Li recounted the terrifying scene again, with Xiao Anzi adding his own details. The story went like this:
When Ji Nai arrived at the South Third Palace, his two sons were in the Imperial Study, so after looking around their usual living quarters and finding nothing amiss, he quickly left.
With her son not around, she couldn't rummage around too much. As children grow up, they all have their own little secrets. What if she saw something she shouldn't have? Wouldn't that be embarrassing?
I didn't encounter many people on the way there, but I ran into trouble on the way back.
Just as he was passing by the palace road between Chengqian Palace and Yonghe Palace, Ji Nai heard someone call out "Consort Rong". He looked up and saw Uya Clan not far away.
At a glance, Ji Nai knew that the other party was coming for him, and immediately became on guard.
Unexpectedly, Uya reached the very front of the battle formation and refused to stop.
Although Xiao Anzi was a eunuch, he was still a man. Although Wuya was just a palace maid, everyone knew that she was the emperor's woman. Without the master's order, Xiao Anzi really didn't dare to touch her.
Moreover, Lady Wuya is carrying the imperial heir. What if the other party collapses and tries to extort money? Then there would be no way to explain herself.
Ji Nai shouted, "What are you doing!"
"This servant has something to tell Your Highness, but it concerns His Majesty and the Imperial Concubine, so it is not convenient to publicize. Therefore, I can only tell Your Highness."
Uya was more cunning than a sieve, so how could Ji Nai dare to let her whisper in his ear? He immediately refused, saying, "If it's a secret, I dare not listen."
However, Uya suddenly became shameless, taking advantage of the fact that no one dared to touch her, dodging left and right, and with her agile movements, she had already reached Ji Nai's side while they were talking.
The change happened in an instant.
Just as Wuya reached Jinai's side, she slipped on something and fell straight backward. The palace maid who was supporting her didn't react in time and was also pulled down by her.
In a flash, Ji Nai, sitting on the palanquin, reached out and grabbed one of Wuya's arms.
Thanks to Ji Nai's force, Wuya reacted in time and used the palace servants around her as cushions, thus avoiding serious injury.
Even so, Uya was so frightened that she clutched her stomach and cried out in pain.
Ji Nai, who subconsciously pulled Wuya Shi, forgot that he was sitting in a sedan chair, and the weight of one person caused the sedan chair to tilt.
In the chaos, one of the eunuchs carrying the palanquin tripped over something, causing Ji Nai to fall off the palanquin.
To make matters worse, the overturned sedan chair landed heavily on Ji Nai's hands.
The solid wood palanquin, made of the finest timber, required four eunuchs to lift and carry the entire thing, demonstrating the immense strength it required.
Ji Nai screamed and fainted immediately.
This sudden turn of events nearly scared the servants of Zhongcui Palace out of their wits. After regaining their senses, they quickly rescued their master.
Then, everyone saw the hand that had been pressed under the sedan chair, a bloody mess.
Xiao Anzi kicked the errant eunuch, told Yu Hu to bring his master back, and then led his men to search the palace road thoroughly.
He didn't believe it was an accident. Even if it was an accident that Uya fell, what about the eunuchs carrying the palanquin? These people were specially trained in lower body strength, just in case their steps were unsteady and they dropped their mistress.
Everyone in Zhongcui Palace wanted nothing more than to devour the troublemaker, Wuya, but she was clutching her stomach and crying in pain. Not only could Xiao Anzi and the others not do anything, they also had to help notify the people in Chengqian Palace.
Consort Tongjia from Chengqian Palace arrived quickly, looking at Xiao Anzi with suspicion, and even trying to stop him from leaving.
“Zhongcui Palace is truly powerful now. She doesn’t care about the injury to the imperial heir and just leaves! I’m going to find His Majesty right now and demand an explanation from Consort Rong.”
Xiao Anzi was seething with anger, and his tone was anything but pleasant. He said sarcastically, "Before the Imperial Concubine goes to find His Majesty, she should ask the people in her own palace first, lest she end up getting nothing but mud on her own."
It was Uya who started the trouble, and it was Uya who caused the chaos. Not only did her master help Uya, but he was also seriously injured. Even if someone is to be held accountable, it shouldn't be her master who should bear the responsibility.
Moreover, Xiao Anzi saw it clearly: after Wuya fell, she didn't cry out in pain at first. It wasn't until her master's injured hand was exposed that she turned pale and said her stomach hurt.
There wasn't even a cold sweat on her forehead, so it didn't seem like anything was really wrong. Even if she had threatened miscarriage, it was probably just from being scared.
However, since it concerned the imperial heir, Xiao Anzi could not directly raise any questions.
However, Xiao Anzi was also aware of this secret and knew that Wuya's injuries were definitely not as serious as his own master's, so he was more assertive when facing Consort Tongjia.
Consort Tongjia was furious as she watched the departing servant from Zhongcui Palace. What had initially been a feigned headache now seemed to be turning real. However, she wasn't stupid. Even without witnessing the entire incident, she sensed something amiss from the servant's attitude.
Regardless, Uya was carrying a golden egg in her belly, and even if Zhongcui Palace was not at fault, they shouldn't have reacted this way.
Consort Tongjia looked coldly at the rear hall where Uya was, "Have someone come here, I want to ask them a few questions."
After listening to Li Mama and Xiao Anzi's account, Cheng Rui and Saiyinchahun felt even more sorry for their mother.
In their view, their mother had suffered a completely undeserved calamity today.
Whether it was something the strangely behaving Uya clan was plotting, or whether Uya clan had also fallen into a trap, her own mother was innocently implicated.
"My mother is kind-hearted." If she hadn't pulled me like that, I might not have been so badly injured.
However, Chengrui cannot say that his mother did something wrong, because his mother is kind-hearted by nature, and saving Wuya was a subconscious reaction. Even if he does not approve of this kindness, he cannot say that this kindness is wrong. What is wrong is that it was inappropriate.
Moreover, Uya's situation is special. If Mother just stands by and watch something happen to her, even if Father trusts Mother, this matter will not be easy to resolve.
Ultimately, it was the baby in Uya's belly that was too much of an eyesore. Otherwise, one was a favored concubine with children, and the other was a palace maid who had served the emperor but had no official rank. If she was injured because of her, Uya would be innocent and would only have one way out: death.
Saiyinchahun glanced at the still silent main hall and said with disgust, "I'm afraid it's just a case of the farmer and the snake."
Although Xiao Anzi didn't say it explicitly, Saiyinchahun sensed something fishy; Wuya's stomach ache was clearly exaggerated.
If it's just about shirking responsibility, that's one thing, but I'm afraid the other party might turn around and bite back on their mother in order to protect themselves.
Granny Li was anxious both outwardly and inwardly; she truly hadn't expected her mistress to be injured so badly.
