Hearing Xiao Ting's words, although Xu Yu knew what Xiao Ting meant, she was also at a loss whether to laugh or cry from her words.
Did this girl even know how to speak human language?
Those who didn't know would think that she was eager for Imperial Concubine to die.
And what did that emperor have to do with him?
When did he ever say that the Imperial Consort Xiao was dead? It was all of you who were unable to differentiate between right and wrong.
"Your Majesty, please forgive us. Ninth Princess, please forgive us."
At this moment, there was nothing else he could say.
Imperial Consort Xiao was carried into the Yao Chi Palace, and the imperial doctors quickly gathered there.
Only now did the emperor come out from the inner chamber, and he had calmed down a lot. "Ninth Brother, tell me, what exactly happened?"
Ninth Prince said in a deep voice: "Could it be that royal brother was unable to see it?"
"See what?"
The emperor's expression was also very unsightly. It was obvious that he had already thought of it.
The Ninth Prince did not pay any more attention to him. His gaze swept across the inner room, and saw a figure walking back and forth behind the bead curtain.
The emperor's face turned even uglier. What was so interesting about a little girl like her?
"Yuchi Snow, speak."
If he had known this would happen, he wouldn't have gone back to the palace.
This was truly a calculation that was completely incomparable to the one in the heavens.
"Um, your majesty, the situation is like this. This subject received an order from the peak that we had set out from the imperial capital two days ago. After that, eight horses were killed and they lost ten kilograms of weight …"
The more she spoke, the more excited she felt. She wanted nothing more than to recount what she had suffered through, but before she could finish, she was interrupted.
"Get to the point."
The emperor's face darkened a few times. He was truly worried. Why were there so many unreliable things around him?
The Emperor's voice sunk, and Yuchi Xinghan immediately went silent. His surname was not Chu, and he did not have much face compared to the Ninth Prince.
It turned out that Yuchi Xinghan, in order to make it to the Emperor's birthday banquet, had rushed back the night before and had obtained the answer the Ninth Prince wanted.
Initially, he thought that there would be a reward, but to think that he didn't return at the right time. The imperial palace was under martial law both internally and externally, making it impossible for him to enter.
As a result, he could only sleep outside the palace. If not for the appearance of Ninth Prince, he would probably still be sleeping on the ground.
In order to attract the attention of the Ninth Prince, he randomly pointed to a group of palace maids and said that one of them was a fugitive, but it was also because his mischief had alarmed the passing Ninth Prince, and even found the Imperial Consort Xiao who was disguised as one.
As for him, he did not understand and directly went up to pay his respects. He was so angry that the Imperial Consort Xiao did not even have time to take a breath before she fainted.
So at this moment, he was being escorted by the Ninth Prince to beg for forgiveness.
As for why the Imperial Consort Xiao pretended to be a palace maid, perhaps it was because he had been absent for the past few days, and something interesting had occurred.
The emperor listened silently for a long time …
Inside the Yao Chi Inner Palace, all the imperial physicians had gone to the battlefield to request treatment, and they had even drawn up a bunch of orders. Xiao Ting was displeased to see them whispering to each other.
Her face darkened as she saw more and more lists on the white jade table. They were almost piled into a mountain.
"I say, old man, you have prescribed so many medicines, are you sure you won't die after taking them?"
Xiao Ting picked up a piece of paper, which was filled with words, and looked at the other piece of paper again.
With so many medicines, would he really not eat the dead?
"Hehe …" The White Beard Imperial Physician Bai stroked her beard and said cheerfully: "Ninth Princess is joking."
"I isn't joking. It's medicine with three parts poison. You should know this simple logic, right?"
Xiao Ting felt that they were bullying her lack of culture.
"Eh." Xiao Ting's face was serious, but the other imperial physicians were at a loss of what to do.
Ever since ancient times, when checking the pulse of the people in the royal family, warmth was the main factor. The tonics and tonics were often used, so the body wasn't that bad.
Imperial Consort Xiao had been in the harem for so many years, so she naturally had her own imperial physician. Doctor Wei stepped forward and said, "Don't worry, Ninth Princess is fine.
Xiao Ting cast a sidelong glance at him and said: "Only you dare speak the truth.
After the imperial physicians had all retreated, Xiao Ting immediately rushed over to the Phoenix Nest. Imperial Consort Xiao suddenly opened her beautiful eyes, and said in a low, urgent voice, "Don't ask anything, just listen to aunt."
The reason why Xiao Ting chased the imperial physician out was because she saw the eyes the Imperial Consort Xiao shot her.
Xiao Ting nodded.
"From today onwards, the matter of the Xiao family has nothing to do with you. Do you hear me?"
"Aunt, what happened?" Xiao Ting felt the urgency of the Imperial Consort Xiao and could not help but ask.
But Imperial Consort Xiao did not even bother to reply to her. She grabbed her wrist and said solemnly, "Remember, be a good Ninth Princess to you and take care of Xiao Xin. You are not allowed to ask about other things."
"No matter what happens in the Xiao family, it has nothing to do with you. Do you understand?"
Xiao Ting was so anxious, why did it feel like her aunt was talking about some matters behind her back? An ominous feeling lingered in her heart, that she could not let go no matter what.
"Aunt, please make it clear. What happened to you?"
Xiao Ting was about to ask more when she heard a sound from the pearl curtain behind him.
Imperial Consort Xiao had already held her hand and sat up. The emperor also walked over, but she did not approach her. Instead, she looked at Imperial Consort Xiao with a complicated expression.
Xiao Ting couldn't understand the meaning of that gaze, and only felt that it was a little strange.
"Aunt …" She subconsciously looked at the Imperial Consort Xiao.
The current Imperial Consort Xiao, even though she had just woken up from a great dream, still possessed unmatched grace and grace. Even though she was dressed in the palace maid attire, it was still unable to cover her overflowing beauty.
"Ting'er, you can leave first!"
Such normal words, yet Xiao Ting felt even more uneasy, she did not want to leave Imperial Consort Xiao, and even the gaze with which she looked at the emperor was filled with caution.
"Be good."
Imperial Consort Xiao patted her hands, her gaze extremely gentle.
Xiao Ting could only withdraw in the end.
After a long while, the entire palace was silent, until a sneer finally came. Imperial Consort Xiao walked leisurely to the front of the Emperor.
Just like before, his curling figure and moving voice took the emperor's arm and brought him over.
"The emperor can ask whatever he wants. Chenqie won't hide it from you."
Imperial Consort Xiao stepped on the carpet with her jade feet and personally brewed a pot of tea for the Emperor.
It was like an invisible thread had separated the nostalgia of the two.
The Emperor looked at the Imperial Consort Xiao for a long time as if he wanted to pierce through her. In the end, he could only withdraw his thoughts and said, "Could it be that the words of his beloved concubine are really hiding something from me?"
Imperial Consort Xiao was still smiling, her charming voice was still the same, but the gentleness of the past couldn't be heard. "I presume Ninth Brother has already gotten his proof."
"That's right. I've loved a man my entire life, but unfortunately, it wasn't you!"
Her eyes were clear and cold, and her smile was coquettish and amorous. She seemed to have settled down in a contradiction and claimed that she had become 'I' as well.
She was still smiling.
The emperor was flustered. "Who the hell is he?"
"Who is he? Is it important to you, Your Majesty?" The Imperial Consort Xiao poured some boiled water and poured a cup for the Emperor before passing it over.
The Emperor did not answer, but looked at her coldly.
The Imperial Consort Xiao laughed silently and placed the teacup in front of the Emperor, then sat back down.
He poured himself a glass and said, "He's dead."
"I know that he is dead. Otherwise, you would have entered the palace in peace." The emperor snorted coldly. "You've been hiding this from me for so many years. You've really put a lot of thought into this!"
Imperial Consort Xiao did not explain further, "I am not intentionally hiding this from the Emperor, I just do not think it is necessary."
"If it's not necessary, why did you leave the palace?"
"In order to not give birth to my child, you actually forced a palace maid to death, willing to be infertile for the rest of your life."
"Do you know that I want a child with you? How can you be so heartless?"
Facing such a strong accusation, the Imperial Consort Xiao didn't even bat an eye. She only smiled and said, "I will never forget the king's kindness towards me, it's just that …"
In the main palace, Xiao Ting was walking back and forth, looking around the hall, but she couldn't hear anything.
She asked the Ninth Prince what was going on, and she, her cheap husband, actually ignored her.
There was also Yuchi Snow, who was being slashed a thousand times. She looked as if she was about to be cut to pieces.
"Xu, tell I what happened?"
Xu Yu's eyes looked at his nose, his nose looked at his heart, like a stone statue standing tall, holding his blade on the spot.
He didn't say a word. What a joke! It wasn't like he had a long life.
At this time, after many layers of reports, the Hong Shao finally found the place.
"Princess, that lady woke up." She first greeted the Ninth Prince and then whispered into Xiao Ting's ear.
She thought that she sounded very soft, but what she did not know was that her words had long since entered the ears of the people who wanted to do it.
Therefore, before Xiao Ting could say anything, Ninth Prince's faint voice floated over, "What lady? "Who is it?"
Xiao Ting turned around snappily, glared at him, and said, "You don't need to care."
After saying so, she took another look at the inner hall. Perhaps there would be news soon, so she decided to take a look at the girl that she had picked up.
Inside the Yao Chi Palace's side hall, Xiao Xin was sitting on the stairs, propping his chin up as if he was looking at a big sister. Seeing that Xiao Ting had come over, he immediately ran over with his short legs.
"Elder sister, how is aunt? Small Ten heard that she was injured, can Small Ten go see her? "
The petite girl pulled on Xiao Ting's sleeves, her face full of worry.
Xiao Ting smiled at him and said, "Aunt and Your Majesty are together, Small Ten cannot go. After those annoying fellows have left, Big Sister will bring you to see my aunt, okay?"
"Then, alright!" Xiao Xin reluctantly agreed.
Lv You hurriedly walked over. "Princess, please go take a look. The young lady that you brought back has woken up and is about to leave."
"Leave? This is the palace, a place that she can come and go whenever she wants? "
Xiao Ting snorted lightly, and took the lead to walk forward.
As soon as she entered the room, she realized why all the palace maids were standing guard outside the hall and did not dare to enter.
The girl in black's martial arts were obviously not weak, but right now, she was like a shrew who didn't know any martial arts. She threw whatever she grabbed, whatever she took.
"What's the matter with you?"
The moment Xiao Ting stepped inside, she felt a cold wind blow towards her head, so she immediately took a step back and closed the door. She only heard a door being smashed, and then, she opened the door.
He walked in with large strides.
"You are the Ninth Princess, Xiao Ting."
