The wealthy tycoon wants to be the white moonlight of the little village girl
Chapter 429 Concubine Cao accidentally got a big bargain!
Madam Yan shook her head palely and said with a faint smile: "I'm fine..."
Qing He burst into tears and said, "Grandma, please don't be in any trouble! I'm still waiting for you to give the baby a nickname!"
Madam Yan looked up at her and whispered, "If it's a girl, her nickname should be Narcissus...Give her my name, I hope she can be untainted by the muddy world and be as beautiful and lovely as you..."
When Old Madam Yan said this, her eyes suddenly widened, as if she had seen something terrible, and she exclaimed, "Qinghe, be careful!"
Qing He was stunned after hearing this, not knowing what grandma was talking about...
Just as she was about to ask, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her back! Then a burning sensation made her lose consciousness and she slowly fell to the ground!
Jiang Yaonian, who was not far away, was shocked when he saw this. He hurried over, picked her up, rushed out of the crowd, and headed straight for the Temple of Repentance...
No one knew what happened, and they didn't understand why he suddenly fainted...
Everyone looked at each other, asking each other what was going on...
Miao Zhenting was even busier at the moment. His mother had just been assassinated, and his niece had fainted right before his eyes. He was so anxious that he quickly asked someone to call the imperial physician...
After a while, the imperial doctors hurried over, checked Madam Yan's wound, and suggested that the empress dowager be sent to the Siguo Hall for careful bandaging.
At that moment, the guards, eunuchs and palace maids escorted Old Madam Yan away. The emperor ordered people to lock Prince Jing in the dungeon to await his fate.
The emperor stayed by Madam Yan's side, watching the doctors apply medicine and bandage the wound, and burst into tears...
Madam Yan said weakly, "Please ask everyone to leave... There's no need to wait outside. I'm fine."
The retired emperor called the eunuch over as instructed and asked him to pass on the message, telling the emperor, princes and concubines not to stay outside.
The eunuch agreed and went out to announce the decree.
The emperor led everyone to pay their respects and return to their respective bedrooms.
Concubine Cao left the Siguo Palace with a lot on her mind. She looked up at the Second Prince who was walking in front of her, and her eyes suddenly turned into resentment...
Her beloved son Miao Wuhen was concentrating on staring at Mo Qi who was standing next to the emperor, and he didn't notice that his mother was staring at him from behind!
Concubine Cao couldn't help but yelled, "Wuhen! Wait a moment! I have something to tell you!"
But at this moment, Miao Wuhen couldn't hear her at all. He ignored her and walked straight ahead with big strides...
Imperial Concubine Cao called out several times, but he did not turn around. The eunuchs and palace maids had no choice but to shout behind him, "Second Prince! Second Prince! Imperial Concubine Cao is calling you!"
Miao Wuhen then turned around and frowned, "What do you want me to do?"
Concubine Cao said with an unhappy look on her face: "Come back to Fengming Palace with me. I have something to say to you..."
Miao Wuhen said impatiently: "Let's talk about it later! I have something else to do now!"
After saying that, he walked a few steps quickly and said, "Father, I have something I want to ask you..."
The emperor turned around and frowned at him, and asked in surprise, "What's the matter?"
Miao Wuhen said excitedly: "Regarding the matter of rectifying the Ministry of War that Lord Sun mentioned last time..."
The emperor said casually: "Oh, you can ask Mo Qi about that matter! He is in charge of the follow-up now..."
Miao Wuhen clasped his hands together and saluted, "Yes! I understand!" Then he looked at Mo Qi beside him with a smile and said, "Then I'll have to trouble Master Mo!"
Mo Qi said calmly: "Second Prince, you are too polite."
Imperial Concubine Cao saw this scene from behind and felt somewhat comforted. She secretly thought, "This kid finally knows how to do something serious! That's right! He used to drink and fool around all day long. He should be a wise ruler who cares about state affairs. Then I can praise him in front of your father! Otherwise, I can't even find the first words to praise you! But... there's something wrong with his behavior! He doesn't look like he's going to consult Master Mo about state affairs. Instead, he's so happy, as if he's going on a blind date!"
Concubine Cao was grumbling in confusion, and couldn't help but think of last year's selection of concubines...
A year has passed, and they still haven't made up their minds! I don't know what that bastard is thinking...
When Concubine Cao thought of this, she couldn't help but feel a little irritated. She didn't go back to Fengming Palace directly, but came to the quiet and secluded Imperial Garden, thinking of relaxing before going back...
When she walked to Yuhua Pavilion, she suddenly heard a young man's voice coming from the corner in front of her, angrily questioning: "Why are you doing this? What's the benefit of doing this! What if someone finds out!"
The voice was very familiar, and Concubine Cao's curiosity was instantly piqued!
She hurriedly stopped, turned around and signaled the palace maids and eunuchs to leave, then quietly pressed against the wall and listened carefully...
The young man continued, "If anything happens to her, not to mention others, the Queen Mother and the Princess will not let it go! Father and the Emperor will also order someone to investigate the matter thoroughly, not to mention Jiang Yaonian. His wife was plotted against in the palace while she was pregnant. How could he not investigate it to the end? Aren't you afraid of getting yourself into trouble and having a hard time?"
When Concubine Cao heard this, she was shocked. She knew that the other party was talking about the young lady of the Jiang family who was assassinated...
At the same time, she also heard that the person who was speaking was the usually gentle and elegant eldest prince Miao Wuchen!
I never thought he could get so angry! It seems like he was really angry this time!
Concubine Cao really wanted to know who he was talking to, but was afraid of being discovered, so she didn't dare to look.
At this moment, a familiar female voice suddenly said, "You are such a coward! There were so many people talking at the time, who knows who did it? Besides, the life and death of that little village girl is uncertain now, who knows what will happen in the end? How can you get any benefit without taking some risks?"
When Concubine Cao heard this, she was shocked all over and immediately knew who this woman was!
It turns out that Mrs. Jiang suddenly fainted because of these two people behind the scenes!
To be precise, it was Concubine Jia who did it, and it was discovered by Miao Wuchen. The two of them started to turn against each other and blame each other!
Concubine Cao couldn't help but tremble slightly with excitement!
She never expected that she would have such leverage over her two biggest rivals!
Just now she was still worried about her son's lack of progress, but now she suddenly feels proud and has no worries at all!
The emperor's eldest son and his favorite concubine are secretly colluding with each other. What a scandal!
If this were to get out, Miao Wuchen would not only have no hope of inheriting the throne, he would probably be imprisoned by the emperor!
From now on, he will never be able to turn things around, and will never be able to compete with his son for the throne again!
As for Concubine Jia, there is no need to mention her!
Not only will she be stripped of her title and banished to the cold palace, but even her son Miao Wuren will lose the qualification to inherit the throne. Just imagine, how could the emperor allow the son of a concubine with poor personal ethics to inherit the throne?
The original three-way battle for the crown prince has now fallen directly into the hands of his son!
Concubine Cao felt like she had suddenly found a treasure chest. Not only could she kill two birds with one stone, but she also solved two of her biggest concerns at the same time! And it was obtained without any effort!
Just as she was about to turn around and walk back secretly, she suddenly heard Miao Wuhen coldly say: "What you said are all excuses! There is only one reason why you want to kill Jiang Yaonian's wife... that is, you still can't let him go in your heart, so you can't bear to see him fall in love with someone else!"
