Quick transmigration to punish scumbags, have a child to inherit everything from them
Chapter 130 The Crown Prince's Little Dresser (29)
"The tolling of the death knell!"
Zhao Yunmin started having a fever that night. When people found her and tried to save her, she was half dead. She was bedridden for a month before she could walk normally again.
It seems that she was in a courtyard very close to the palace, and she could clearly hear the tolling of the bell announcing the emperor's death.
"The Emperor has passed away! Quickly hang the white silk! The entire Eastern Palace is in a frenzy, what are you two doing slacking off here!"
A eunuch dressed in a dark robe walked in and spoke to the two eunuchs who were staring at Zhao Yunmin.
"Father-in-law, I'll go help right away."
The two recognized him as Eunuch Zhao from the Eastern Palace, so they quickly stood up and hurriedly followed him out to help.
As for whether Zhao Yunmin would run away, they weren't worried at all. Besides, they had already received instructions that once the emperor died, they should find an opportunity for someone to escape.
Just when you're about to fall asleep, someone brings you a pillow.
If anything goes wrong, it will be this Eunuch Zhao who will take responsibility; they were just following orders.
As Zhao Yunmin watched the two leave, she had the idea of leaving herself.
Because of the high fever she had a month ago, she remembered everything.
She is the real Amin. Although she didn't save the prince without expecting anything in return, she is indeed Amin.
It was all the Crown Princess's doing. She sealed her memories and then used her life-saving grace to manipulate her into dealing with Liang Qiuli, so she could reap the benefits.
Fortunately, she saw through it early on and didn't trust the Crown Princess too much.
Once she sees the Crown Prince and explains everything, she can return to his side with dignity. She will make them pay for all the suffering she has endured these past few days!
Thinking of all this, Zhao Yunmin didn't hesitate. She took the only grayish-white dress in the closet, which seemed to have been specially prepared for her, changed into it, and slipped out of the drafty, dilapidated house.
But she had no idea where to find the Crown Prince.
"Why are you still wandering around? The Crown Princess, the Consorts, and the other ladies-in-waiting are all going to keep vigil for the late Emperor. There are so many things to prepare."
"Are you new here? Why are you dawdling around? Hurry up and go help!"
A woman dressed as a palace maid saw Zhao Yunmin wandering suspiciously along the palace path and rushed over without thinking twice.
"Yes, I'm new here. I'll go right away."
Zhao Yunmin can only hope that she will be assigned to a place to guard the coffin, so that she will have a chance to see the Crown Prince.
It's good that I can't see Liang Qiuli, who's disgusting, or even the Crown Princess.
……
On her way there, Liang Qiuli encountered the Crown Princess. Although the Crown Princess disliked Liang Qiuli, today was the day the late Emperor passed away, so it was not the right time to treat her. Therefore, she still maintained a virtuous and gentle demeanor.
However, before she could speak, Liang Qiuli spoke first.
"What a coincidence, Your Highness! Let's go to the place where we keep vigil together."
After saying that, Liang Qiuli stretched out her hand, indicating that the Crown Princess should walk in front.
The Crown Princess is also one of the main characters in today's drama. Although she can't directly bring her down, Liang Qiuli feels that it would be great to tear off her hypocritical mask.
"Greetings to the Crown Princess and the Consort."
When the two arrived, some female relatives of the emperor and ministers, dressed in plain clothes, were already waiting there. They all bowed to the two of them.
After all, once the Crown Prince ascends the throne, one will become the Empress, and the other will at least be a concubine; they are people you can't afford to offend.
"Concubine! Liang Qiuli, how did you become a concubine!"
Zhao Yunmin, lost among the crowd of palace maids and servants, was waiting for the Crown Prince to arrive.
But when she heard everyone call Liang Qiuli a concubine, her eyes widened in surprise. Why was it that everyone else was a palace maid, but she was still a lowly maid?
She was indignant and screamed like a madwoman!
"How dare you make such a racket!"
Before Liang Qiuli could speak, others shouted angrily.
Liang Qiuli's status is now vastly different from what it used to be; she's not someone a mere maid could casually comment on.
Zhao Yunmin regretted it when her hands and feet were grabbed. She should have waited until the Crown Prince appeared. What should she do now?
As soon as Liang Qiuli entered, she glanced around and spotted Zhao Yunmin in the crowd, but she didn't say anything. She was still thinking about how to get her to come out on her own later.
I didn't expect her to lose her composure so quickly.
"Are you Miss Zhao from the Eastern Palace?"
Liang Qiuli glanced at the Crown Princess's reaction. In fact, she and the Crown Princess were both familiar with Zhao Yunmin, but they hadn't met in public many times, so she didn't show any particular familiarity.
I only questioned it slightly.
The eunuch holding Zhao Yunmin loosened his grip considerably after hearing the words "Eastern Palace".
They were afraid of this little maid; if she were one of the Crown Prince's people, they would be in big trouble.
"Liang Qiuli, you hurt me so badly that time, how come you're pretending not to know me now!"
The eunuchs went easy on her, and Zhao Yunmin was the one who could feel it most. So she was waiting for an opportunity to break free of her restraints so she could rush up and give Liang Qiuli a couple of punches to avenge that day.
However, there were too many people around, so she had to provoke Liang Qiuli with words to attract the attention of others, so that she could seize the opportunity to make her move.
Liang Qiuli had already noticed the abnormality, but her expression remained unchanged, only her pale lips were slightly pursed, ready to retaliate at any moment.
"Your Highness, this..."
Seeing that Liang Qiuli was not responding, the others could only look to the Crown Princess for help.
Before the Crown Princess could speak, Zhao Yunmin felt her chance had come. In a flash, she broke free from the eunuch's restraints and rushed towards Liang Qiuli, who was a few steps away.
After Liang Qiuli realized what was happening, she didn't dodge. Instead, when Zhao Yunmin touched her, she released most of her strength and even secretly left a punch on Zhao Yunmin.
But to others, it looked like Liang Qiuli was bumped into by Zhao Yunmin, and even took a few steps back, almost falling to the ground.
The crown prince, who strode in, naturally saw this scene as well.
With swift movements and without a word, before anyone else could react, Zhao Yunmin was grabbed by the back of the neck and thrown away by the Crown Prince.
"What use are you people? You can't even protect a single person!"
The crown prince's face was gloomy, and his icy gaze swept coldly over everyone present.
The women of the princes and ministers knelt on the ground, trembling and not daring to breathe, for fear of offending the future emperor.
"Ah! Your Highness, it's me, Amin..."
After being thrown out, Zhao Yunmin crashed into the door and screamed, but she still didn't forget to reveal her identity.
The Crown Prince then looked at her properly, and was surprised to see Zhao Yunmin here. His eyes showed no attempt to hide his disgust and dissatisfaction.
"Zhao Yunmin? What are you doing here? And you even dare to impersonate Amin!"
The Crown Prince could no longer trust Zhao Yunmin.
The Amin in his heart was that kind woman who didn't covet wealth and status, how could she possibly be Zhao Yunmin!
"Your Highness, please listen to me, I..."
Zhao Yunmin felt that she had not explained things clearly enough, and that the Crown Prince would surely pity her once he knew the whole story.
She struggled to go forward, but was stopped by someone.
"Stop making excuses. I spared your life before because I thought you were sensible, but since you're going to cause trouble in front of the late emperor's spirit, don't blame me for being impolite."
The men dragged the man away and gave him fifty strokes of the cane.
The Crown Prince coldly interrupted Zhao Yunmin, his eyes filled with disgust and resolute determination.
Zhao Yunmin's heart trembled. She had just recovered from the injury, and fifty strokes of the cane had left her half-dead. What should she do?
What should I do?
Have it.
"Wait, Your Highness, I know why the late Emperor suddenly fell seriously ill. I have something important to tell you."
Zhao Yunmin glanced at the Crown Princess and Liang Qiuli, a sinister glint in her eyes. "Since that's the case, let's all go to hell together."
