Marrying into a rich family by mistake, it is difficult to be a mistress

"Father." Seeing Ji Zhenghui, Ji Shuangshuang called out excitedly.

"The little prince has been captured. The palace is in chaos. The Empress Dowager and the Emperor are fighting to the death. Let's escape from the palace first."

"Where is Sister Chang Ru? Father, have you seen her?" Ji Shuangshuang was still a little worried about Chang Ru.

"I don't care about that! It just depends on whether she is lucky enough to survive!" Ji Zhenghui dragged Ji Shuangshuang and left according to the planned escape route.

The sounds of fighting in the palace became louder and louder.

The inner court guards and the men brought by Luo Jixun were so bloodthirsty that the entire palace was plunged into a bloody storm.

Cao Jun rushed into the palace with his imperial guards.

As soon as he took action, the remaining troops of Luo Jixun immediately poured into the imperial capital like a tide!

The imperial capital was also in chaos!

Xiao Yanan and Ji Chuhe came to the palace.

The palace was in ruins.

"Let's go to the Empress Dowager's palace first." Ji Chuhe went straight to the Empress Dowager's palace.

At this time, there was no living person in the Empress Dowager's palace.

The bodies of palace maids, eunuchs and guards were scattered all over the ground.

Ji Chuhe quickly came to the delivery room where Chang Ru gave birth. As soon as he walked in, he smelled a strong smell of blood.

There were also several bodies lying in a pool of blood in the house.

Pushing open the half-open door, Ji Chuhe saw Chang Ru lying on the bed, with the bedding beneath her covered in blood.

She walked forward and probed Chang Ru's nose.

"Are you still alive?" Xiao Yan'an asked immediately.

Ji Chuhe shook his head, "He's dead."

After saying that, Ji Chuhe took another careful look at Chang Ru's body. "She has no external injuries. Something must have gone wrong during the birth."

It can be seen from the blood under Chang Ru's body that she died of blood loss.

It is too easy to take a woman's life while she is giving birth.

"The Empress Dowager really didn't intend to let her go. Why didn't she think about the fact that the Empress Dowager died so tragically, and the person who poisoned her was her mother. How could the Empress Dowager let her go?"

"The Empress Dowager is so crazy, how could it be so simple as to take Chang Ru's life? I'm afraid we will all be buried with the Empress Dowager." After Ji Chuhe said this, he suddenly noticed the wound on Chang Ru's finger.

The nail of the index finger of my right hand was broken, as if it had been broken by external force.

If the nail is scratched due to the pain of childbirth, it is impossible that only one finger is injured.

Moreover, the five fingers of her right hand were relaxed, while her left hand was clenched into a fist.

Ji Chuhe held Chang Ru's left hand and pried open Chang Ru's fingers one by one.

I actually saw a word written in blood on Chang Ru’s palm!

Xiao Yan'an was shocked when he saw this scene.

"Female? Ma'am, she wrote the word female."

"Chang Ru gave birth to a girl!" Ji Chuhe immediately understood the meaning of this word.

After saying this, she immediately looked around the room.

She couldn't figure out a problem.

The spies she had planted in the Empress Dowager's place could not find the place where the Empress Dowager hid the child.

Moreover, when Chang Ru was giving birth, Xiao Wenxuan was here to watch over her.

A child was clearly taken out from here and was said to be a prince.

The whereabouts of that child is now unknown.

What about the daughter born to Chang Ru?

How could he disappear out of thin air right under Xiao Wenxuan's nose?

Suddenly, Ji Chuhe's eyes fixed on one place.

She pushed aside the curtains beside the bed and saw that the bedpost against the wall was a little different, as if it was made of two pieces of wood joined together in the middle.

She reached out and touched it, and found that the section of the column that seemed to be spliced ​​together could actually rotate.

She turned it with force, and the original wall actually moved back a little, revealing a secret door, and light could be seen inside.

Ji Chuhe wanted to go in but was stopped by Xiao Yan'an.

"Madam, be careful. I'll go ahead." Xiao Yan'an walked in.

Ji Chuhe followed behind Xiao Yan'an, and Rong Song brought people to protect them from behind.

The group walked towards the secret door.

Once you enter the secret door, it immediately closes and returns to its original state. From the outside, you can't see any clues."

"No wonder we couldn't find where the Empress Dowager hid the people. It turns out that once the palace maids became pregnant, they were hidden here and raised. Then, when Chang Ru gave birth, the baby was taken out from here and switched."

Suddenly, Xiao Yan'an turned around and stood in front of Ji Chuhe.

"Ma'am, don't look."

Ji Chuhe was blocked by Xiao Yan'an's tall body and could not see what was happening in front of him.

"Is anyone there?" she asked tentatively.

"Yes, but he's dead."

"Are they the pregnant maids?"

"In addition to those palace maids, there are also several baby girls."

Just through Xiao Yan'an's description, Ji Chuhe could imagine the bloody and tragic scene.

Xiao Yan'an raised his hand and pressed Ji Chuhe's head, burying her face in his chest, not wanting her to see these scenes.

"Ma'am, I'll take you there."

"Yeah." Ji Chuhe nodded.

"Prince! There is someone in front!" Rong Song saw a figure flash by.

"Chase!" Xiao Yan'an gave the order immediately.

Rong Song quickly chased after him.

After just a moment, a scream was heard.

"Ah! Spare me, spare me!"

Xiao Yan'an pulled Ji Chuhe and walked quickly towards the source of the sound.

I saw a nanny in palace dress kneeling on the ground.

Ji Chuhe immediately recognized that this was the head nanny beside the Empress Dowager.

When Nanny Li saw who was coming, she was surprised.

"Prince, Madam? How did you find this place?" She could never have imagined that Ji Chuhe and Xiao Yan'an could find this place.

"Wow~" Suddenly, a child's cry was heard.

Ji Chuhe walked forward and found a baby wrapped in a swaddle.

"Whose child is this?"

"Yes, it was born by a palace maid who committed adultery? Crown Prince, Madam Crown Prince, you saw it when you came in just now. Those palace maids who committed adultery were all executed. I have served the Grand Empress Dowager all my life and have never married or had children. I also have no relatives to take care of me in my old age and see me to the end of my life. So I became selfish and secretly hid a child, thinking of raising this child and having him take care of me in my old age and see me to the end of my life." Nanny Li had an idea and made up a lie.

Ji Chuhe was not in a hurry to expose her.

"Pick up the child, take her with you, and go out first."

Rong Song immediately had someone escort Nanny Li to pick up the baby in the cradle, and the group continued to move forward.

This secret room is very large, and there is a road in front. When I opened the secret door and walked out, I found that it was the northernmost storage room in the Empress Dowager's palace.

Moreover, there is a small door here, which is locked.

As long as the lock is opened, you can leave the Empress Dowager's palace directly from here.

There was no sound of fighting in the palace anymore.

It seems that one side has won.

This victory will definitely mean your death.

"Rongsong, contact our people." Ji Chuhe ordered.

"Yes." Rong Song leaped up and disappeared in front of several people.
