Chapter 251 Why, didn't you pay me a lot of money to visit the doctor?
The night was like splashing ink, and a carriage, escorted by many imperial guards, arrived at the Chu Mansion.
In addition to the Imperial Army, those who came to pick them up also included Hong Lian, the first-class palace maid next to Concubine Xian.
Looking at the locked door and the empty house outside, Honglian couldn't help but frown: "Didn't we make an appointment? Then why is Qin Yao not here?"
Knowing that the imperial concubine would send someone to pick him up, this person didn't wait here early?
The dissatisfaction in Honglian's heart deepened even more.
She is a person close to Concubine Xian, so she naturally knows about Qin Yao's big talk, and she sincerely despises this kind of greedy guy who takes advantage of the situation.
"Hmph, let's show off now. If the emperor can't be cured by then, I want to see how he will die!" After saying that, Honglian raised his chin slightly: "Knock on the door."
The Imperial Guards looked hesitant.
Under the night, this big house with lanterns hanging is like a resting beast. Once they come forward, they may wake it up! The consequences...
Immediately flashing through their minds were the scenes not long ago of the soldiers who came here on orders to be stripped of their armor and brutally watched by the whole city, as well as the bloody men who were carried back to the palace two days ago.
Everyone suddenly had a sad face.
"How about we wait a little longer?"
"Can the Emperor afford to wait?" Hong Lian shouted coldly, "Go quickly! If you delay the treatment, be careful of your life!"
After hearing this, the Imperial Guard hesitated for a while, then gritted his teeth and stepped forward to knock on the door.
The door of the mansion opened a small crack, and a servant's face appeared in the crack.
"On the order of the noble concubine, we are here to take Lord Qin Yao into the palace."
"Master Qin, please take a rest. Just wait." After saying that, the servant seemed not to notice their sudden change in expressions, and closed the door ruthlessly.
"This..." The Imperial Army turned to look at Honglian.
Her face was extremely gloomy: "What a break, this sounds like a lie!"
The other party did this deliberately, clearly not to give the imperial concubine face! It is really hateful!
Honglian was so angry that she immediately took out the spiritual slip and summoned Concubine Xian to tell her what happened here.
"Damn it! How dare he do this!" Mu Rushuang was furious. Suddenly, she thought of something, and her face instantly twisted: "It must be Chu Ran! She was the one who instigated Qin Yao to do this behind the scenes! She has a grudge against us, and
She has an ulterior relationship with Qin Yao, and she is the only one who would do such a thing!"
If it wasn't her instigation, why would Qin Yao, who had nothing to do with them, deliberately target them?
Mu Rushuang cursed loudly: "This bitch! I should have beaten her to death before! Throw her to a mass grave and let wild dogs dismember her body!"
Concubine Xian's eyes were as deep as the abyss. She sat at the table and said nothing, but she agreed with her daughter's speculation in her heart.
Killing intent surged in her heart. She held the Ling Jian tightly and remained silent for a long time before speaking: "Since he asked you to wait, then just wait."
"……yes."
The group of people stayed outside the house until late at night, their legs were numb from standing, and then finally waited until the door opened.
"You...you..." Honglian's eyes widened in horror, pointing at the crescent-white figure who had just been able to walk out of the door. Her lips were trembling, and she was so scared that she couldn't utter a complete sentence.
The Imperial Guards beside her subconsciously retreated, as if they saw the God of Death appearing.
"Why, didn't you pay me a lot of money to treat me?" The voice was low and cold, unable to distinguish between male and female.
Everyone realized something instantly, and their expressions suddenly changed.
Watching the figure pass in front of them, the other person did nothing, but they instinctively tensed up their nerves and held their breath, not even daring to take a breath.
The curtain slowly lifted and fell, blocking the white figure.
"Still not leaving?"
"Yes, yes." The Imperial Guards responded in fear and immediately returned to the car.
Honglian also recovered from the shock. She quickly glanced at the carriage, and then secretly took out the message slip.
At this moment, a burst of spiritual power suddenly shot out from the carriage.
"Wow"
The spirit slip was shattered in response to the sound.
"Ah!" Hong Lian covered her hand that was scratched by spiritual power and shouted in pain.
A voice sounded in the car: "Don't do unnecessary things."
Seeing the woman bleeding and wailing in pain, the Imperial Guards all shuddered.
With this lesson in mind, they behaved like quails along the way, not daring to make any small moves.
The carriage arrived at the palace gate.
When they saw the figure coming down from the car, the soldiers guarding the palace gate trembled in their hearts.
Why is this person here?
Looking at the carriage again, it turned out to be the carriage that had just left the palace not long ago and was ordered to be released by the noble concubine Xian.
But how could this be the person who got out of the car?
The soldiers were immediately stunned, but because the palace had already told them to let them go and let the people in the carriage enter the palace, they could only suppress the shock and fear in their hearts and bow to give way.
Accompanied by many imperial guards, the figure entered the harem unimpeded.
All the palace people and guards they saw looked in disbelief and fear. Some were even so frightened that they knelt down on the ground and smashed the palace lantern in their hands.
At this time, the emperor dragon was sleeping.
Concubine Xian was taking care of the unconscious emperor in the inner hall, while Mu Rushuang was pacing back and forth in the hall with an annoyed look on her face.
"I've been waiting for almost two hours, but there's still no news! How long will that damn guy keep this princess waiting?" Mu Rushuang said sinisterly, her dissatisfaction with Qin Yao reaching its peak.
Just as he finished speaking, there were sudden rapid footsteps outside the hall.
A little eunuch hurriedly ran up the steps. When he entered the door, he was so anxious that he tripped over the threshold and fell to the ground.
When Mu Rushuang saw it, her anger suddenly seemed to be ignited. She took out her whip and swung it hard: "Trash!"
A blow packed with spiritual power directly shattered the eunuch's back, and he fell to the ground, screaming loudly.
Mu Rushuang was furious and whipped her several more times. She didn't stop until the eunuch became silent.
Immediately, palace servants came forward, skillfully dragged away the eunuch's body, fetched water, and washed away the pool of scarlet blood on the ground.
This scene has happened almost every day in recent days.
First they were the imperial doctors, but because they could not cure the emperor, the three princesses became furious and beat two or three people to death, and then they were the eunuchs and palace maids.
Whenever she is in a bad mood, she will take out her anger on them, and if she takes action, someone will die.
Because she is protected by the virtuous concubine, no one can do anything to her.
"What's going on again?" Concubine Xian came out of the inner hall after hearing the commotion, turning a blind eye to the blood in front of her.
"It's okay, I just taught a blind slave a lesson." Mu Rushuang said disapprovingly, "Concubine, please ask Honglian what is going on over there now. If it doesn't work, just let me go!
I don’t believe it, then Qin Yao would dare to hide in there and not come out when he saw me.”
"What will you do if your temper is gone?" Concubine Xian shook her head and was about to say something else when she heard a sudden clang from outside the palace.
The maid who had just left the palace rolled down the steps with the silver basin she was holding, and blood spilled all over the floor.
She stood blankly on the steps outside the door, motionless.
Because of the eunuch's death, the palace people who were busy outside the palace suddenly became silent.
