No, I was just a concubine, how did I become the queen?

"Princess, there is blood!" Cuizhu turned on the light in the room, her face pale.

Geng looked in the direction of her finger and saw that there were indeed spots of blood on one end of the beds.

She sniffed the tip of her nose and didn't smell any strong smell of blood.

She asked the maid in the inner courtyard, "Is that your sister Linglan's bed?"

The little girl took a look and nodded: "Yes, I often help Sister Linglan make the bed."

"Is she having her period?" Geng frowned.

With this little blood, the possibility of him being killed is not high.

Considering that some people said that Lily of the Valley was not seen during dinner, it is more likely that she went back to her room to rest due to menstrual discomfort.

The little girl thought about it and nodded vigorously: "Yes, yes, Sister Linglan's life is about this time."

Generally speaking, during this period of time, Sister Linglan's temper will become worse, and those who are sneaky and cunning will easily suffer the consequences.

Geng confirmed her guess and told Cuizhu, "Open that window over there and take a look."

It was already freezing cold outside at the end of October.

As soon as the window was opened, the cold wind rushed in.

But it was dark outside and I couldn't see clearly. I could only hear the sound of water.

Someone said, "That's the small lake in the inner courtyard, and across the bridge is the rockery."

Geng reached out and touched Linglan's quilt, and there was still a hint of warmth.

She keenly sensed something was wrong: "Let's go and take a look over there!"

She guessed that when Linglan returned to her room to rest, she noticed something was wrong and hurried out to chase after her.

It is very likely that he went towards the rockery.

A group of people went over with torches and searched carefully. They found an embroidered shoe of Lily of the Valley among the bitter lotus by the bridge.

"Search the rockery and the forest over there thoroughly!" Geng walked in front personally.

More and more people were looking for someone outside, and in the secret passage of the rockery, hope was ignited in Lily of the Valley.

She pinched a young eunuch's neck tightly and pressed on him without letting go.

The little eunuch was not very tall, otherwise he would not have been suppressed by her.

Moreover, he was strangled by her throat and did not dare to resist too much.

Otherwise, he would suffocate due to lack of oxygen.

The young eunuch squeezed out the words from his throat: "Let...let me go, or...I will...scat...you."

He had a sharp hairpin in his hand, which was currently piercing Linglan's waist.

However, she was pressing down with all her weight, so the hairpin couldn't be pulled out.

Linglan is having her period today and isn't feeling well, but her adrenaline is surging and she doesn't feel any pain.

She glanced at Honghui, who was wrapped in a bundle and silent not far away, and had only one thought in her mind: this little eunuch must not be allowed to live.

The young eunuch had wounds on his hands and his neck was being strangled tightly.

This is when you truly regret.

The government was strict and he was not allowed to carry any sharp weapons on his body.

Being able to sneak into the eldest prince's room and knock out the two wet nurses is already the limit.

As for the eldest prince, he wanted to fall to his death.

However, he was afraid that after the eldest prince fell to his death, he would not be able to escape and would have to suffer all kinds of punishment and endure great pain.

So I was a little scared for a moment and thought about jumping off the bridge and drowning while holding my eldest prince.

Anyway, I've already risked my life, so it would be nice to die easily.

But as soon as he stepped onto Qiao Bridge, he was pounced on by the crazy woman and stabbed his leg with a hairpin.

With her quick eyes and hands, she held the eldest prince tightly in her arms again.

Afraid that she would call more people, he carried them both into the dark cave in the rockery.

This woman seemed to be unafraid of death. She completely ignored the injuries on her body and stabbed his hand again, beating him like this.

The young eunuch saw that more and more people were searching and they were getting closer. Although this dark cave was hidden, it could not withstand a careful search.

He went crazy and pulled out the hairpin between Linglan's waist and abdomen.

"Let me go! I will spare your life!" He struggled in panic, but the hairpin in his hand stabbed into Linglan's back again and again.

Linglan no longer felt the pain, but she continued to use her strength to bite the man's face with her teeth.

The flesh on his ears and face was torn off by her sharp fangs, and the little eunuch finally let out a sharp scream.

"Ahhhh~~~!!!"

The sharp cry came from the rockery, scaring away several birds in the grove next door.

Geng had already suspected the rockery and was searching carefully nearby. When he heard the sound, he immediately ran towards the source.

"Gege, the sound comes from here!" Cuizhu was the first to find the narrow entrance.

Geng snatched a torch from the servant and immediately squeezed in through the cave entrance.

As soon as I entered, I saw two bloody people on the ground. Going further forward, I saw a large bag rolling to the side.

"Eldest Prince!" She immediately thought that the missing Honghui should be in the bundle.

Not caring about the two people arguing with each other, she walked around and quickly picked up the bag and opened it.

This young eunuch was cruel and ruthless. He tied the bundle tightly with the intention of suffocating the child.

If the front of the bundle had not been cut by a sharp weapon, Honghui might have been suffocated to death.

"Someone come quickly! The bad guy is here!" Geng shouted while hugging Honghui.

Linglan held on until now, and finally saw someone coming. She felt relieved and the strength in her hands disappeared.

Half of the eunuch's face was torn off, but at the critical moment of life and death, he still burst out with strength.

He didn't care about the hairpin stuck in Linglan's ribs, kicked her over hard, and got up.

He wanted to snatch Honghui again, but Cuizhu had already come in with a few young eunuchs, so it was obviously too late.

"Bah! You can't run away!" Cuizhu shouted, "Quick, catch him!"

This was like catching a turtle in a jar. Seeing that there was no way to escape, the young eunuch set his sights on a rockery behind Geng.

He had been in this cave for a long time and had already figured out everything about it.

There is a loose rockery stone over there. If used properly, the task can be completed!

Geng and others didn't know and thought he had surrendered.

Just when everyone was relaxing, the young eunuch quickly rushed to Geng's side and knocked the stone to the ground.

The big rock on top of the stone fell down directly!

When Geng found out, she raised her foot and tried to rush out, but the young eunuch had already planned it and held her legs tightly to prevent her from leaving.

Seeing that she couldn't escape, Geng could only hold Honghui tightly under her body and let the stones hit her.

Cuizhu and the others were so frightened that they rushed forward to block the attack using their bodies as shields.

Fortunately, not many stones fell. Except for three or four big ones, the rest were small.

Geng's leg was hit, but her body was fine, and Honghui was even unharmed.

He fainted from holding his breath, and now he woke up and cried loudly: "Waaaaa ~~~"

Hearing this cry, the others breathed a sigh of relief, but the young eunuch, who had risked everything, vomited a mouthful of blood...
