Chapter 53: The Prince Arrives
e out a way for the Crown Princess to escape the palace.With half an incense stick's worth of time remaining before the emperor's arrival, Zhou Dequan decided to immediately expose the imposter prince...Now that Nangong Ye could tell her about the past, it proved that the man in front of her had opened his heart to her.
Qingxuan's heart was also churning with emotions.
Qingxuan: "Heaven hasn't treated you poorly, giving you the fortune of meeting me. I just wonder if Heaven has treated me poorly, allowing me to meet you and whether my life will become better afterward."
Definitely!
Before Nangong Ye could speak, he heard Zhang Jin's voice at the door.
Outside the courtyard, Zhang Jin deliberately strained his voice to make it louder, so that even inside the house, one could hear Zhang Jin's voice.
Zhang Jin: "Your Highness, the Wangye's condition is serious now, it's not easy to see people!"
Qingxuan was surprised.
The prince is here
According to the original owner's memories, Nangong Qing was gentle and humble. Before Nangong Ye was labeled a traitor, the one most likely to become the crown prince was not Nangong Qing, but Nangong Ye.
Qing Xuan whispered to Nangong Ye, "After you became like this, has Nangong Qing ever come to see you"
Namgung Yeop's eyes were complex, but he replied very clearly: "Never."
Nandong Ye suffered such a great grievance, Nandong Qing never came to visit, but now he runs to see Nandong Ye.
Could the one who sent ginger red to assassinate Nangong Ye be him
After all, the person who benefited the most from Nangong Ye becoming such a cripple is Nangong Qing.
If the person who sent Ginger Red to assassinate him is indeed behind this, and the assassination attempt has failed, he will definitely come in person to investigate the situation.
Outside the palace, Nangong Qing was stopped by Zhang Jin. She didn't seem annoyed.
Chun Tao, who had rushed over as soon as she heard the news, happened to see Zhang Jin stopping Nan Gongqing.
Chun Tao was so scared that she fainted.
Chun Tao covered her waist and rushed to Zhang Jin's side.
Chun Tao: "Bold Zhang Jin, how dare you disrespect the Prince!"
Chun Tao finished speaking, and with a fawning look turned towards Nan Gong Qing. Even though she had strained her waist, she still gritted her teeth and twisted her hips in front of the prince, flaunting herself shamelessly.
Little did he know, her gritted teeth, coupled with the gauze wrapped around her face, made her look particularly ferocious.
Chun Tao: "I have met Your Highness the Prince. Does Your Highness wish to go in and see Master Wang"
Before, the Empress had ordered that if Ji Qingxuan wanted to escape, she should report it immediately. However, she did not say that others were not allowed to enter the courtyard to see Nangong Ye.
The taste inside is just too awful!
Chun Tao covered her nose and said, "Your Highness, the smell inside is indeed unpleasant. Moreover, the current situation of the Lord King is not optimistic, and it is not suitable to see people."
Not only is Nangong Qing's appearance as gentle and refined as jade, but even her speech is like jade falling into a deep well, soft and melodious, extremely approachable.
Nan Gongqing explained, “Yesterday I heard Empress Jiang say that the situation with His Royal Highness today was not optimistic. Thinking that His Royal Highness doesn't have much time left, and considering our past friendship, I couldn’t bear it. I wanted to see him one last time before he leaves.”
Chun Tao glared fiercely at Zhang Jin, who stood in front of the courtyard like a roadblock.
Chun Tao: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is benevolent and magnanimous. He doesn't mind the past of Your Highness, and is willing to come see you. I believe Your Highness would also like to meet His Royal Highness in person."
As soon as Chun Tao finished speaking, a cold snort came from the yard.
Nangong Qing turned his head and saw a woman dressed in a lake-blue long dress. She was not wearing any rouge, yet her face was as flawless as ice, just like a water lily emerging from the pond.
Her eyes were a pair of jet-black orbs, brimming with life and intelligence, like a deer hidden deep within the forest.
Nan Gong Qing unconsciously frowned slightly.
I never expected such a woman to marry Nangong Ye.
Qing Xuan didn't miss any of Nangong Qing's subtle expressions. Her gaze swept lightly over Nangong Qing's face.
"Since I married into the Wangfu, I have devoted myself to taking care of my husband's illness and neglected the management of the servants. As a result, even a lowly maid dares to take charge of me, the mistress of this household."
Qingxuan used her status as the Princess Consort to intimidate Chun Tao. Chun Tao dared not act recklessly, fearing that if news of this spread, it would bring shame upon the Wangfu. Moreover, if Empress Jiang were to be implicated, she would undoubtedly face severe punishment, possibly even losing her life.
Chun Tao immediately knelt before Qing Xuan, appearing to explain to Qing Xuan but actually speaking to Nangong Qing.
Chun Tao: "Your Highness, the King has been seriously ill and hasn't seen any relatives. Even if he harbored resentment, he wouldn't blame His Royal Highness the Crown Prince during such a time. Now that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not disgusted by the smell in the courtyard and wants to see the King, I hope Your Majesty will allow it."Audi that had been chasing and firing shots at itself before had vanished.Have you runChen Yan walked back to An Xiaoyue's side and smiled, "Auntie Xiaoyue, the back door you opened for me is a bit bi...
