After Shangguan Yue waited for her injuries to get better, she went to see Chu Han with a bandage on her body.
Chu Han looked indifferent, "Why are you coming to see me now for something important?"
Before Shangguan Yue could speak, she knelt down with a thud, her eyes red, "Yue'er is here to apologize."
Chu Han's eyes stayed on Shangguan Yue's face for a moment and said nothing.
"In this case, I shouldn't have been bewitched by King Mu and helped frame the princess. Now I have suffered the consequences and have been punished by the prince. I only ask that the prince can forgive me for my mistake this time and give me a chance.
.”
"I can promise to the prince that I will never do it again in the future. If I break my promise, I will let the prince handle it." Shangguan Yue thought about several versions of how to apologize and finally chose this one.
Ever since Chu Han's attitude towards her changed, she became even more uncertain about Chu Han's temper.
"You don't have to ask for my forgiveness. The person you harmed is the princess, not me." Chu Han looked indifferent.
Shangguan Yue stiffened for a moment, lowered her head, and soon she heard the sound of sobbing, "Since the prince doesn't want to forgive me, why push me to the princess."
"Ever since the prince married me and the princess into the palace together, the princess has hated me. Even if this incident hadn't happened, the princess would have wanted to kick me out of the palace. How can I ask for the princess's forgiveness?"
After saying that, she bowed suddenly and took a sip with a bang.
Chu Han raised his eyebrows unexpectedly and glanced at Shangguan Yue.
Shangguan Yue was wearing a white shirt and was kneeling on the ground, her back arched, and dots of blood gradually appeared on her back.
It was the wound on the back that collapsed.
Seeing the blood stains, Chu Han's eyes deepened.
Shangguan Yue clenched her teeth in pain and remained motionless.
But after waiting for a while, Chu Han's voice was not heard.
She frowned deeply, "If the prince still doesn't believe me, it would be meaningless for me to continue to live in the prince's palace. I might as well just die!"
After saying that, she stood up and hit a pillar on Chu Han's side with her head.
Chu Han's expression darkened, and he stretched out his hand to stop him, "Go back and recuperate. We'll talk about the apology after the injury heals."
Shangguan Yue raised her head with tears in her eyes, "My lord, you believe in Yue'er, right?"
"I still have military affairs, please step back." Chu Han's face was expressionless.
Disappointment flashed in Shangguan Yue's eyes, she gritted her teeth secretly, and turned around with a disappointed look on her face, "Yue'er won't disturb the prince anymore."
After saying that, he walked out.
Chu Han took a look and his eyes moved slightly.
Outside, after Shangguan Yue left, she was supported by Zi Ling and left slowly step by step.
Shangguan Yue breathed a sigh of relief.
At least until now, Chu Han didn't know her true relationship with Chu Mu, and she still had time.
…
After Xie Yao came back from the palace, Zi Qing immediately followed her in.
"Princess, you would never have imagined that Shangguan's side concubine went to the prince to apologize with her injuries." Zi Qing said with beaming eyebrows.
Xie Yao responded lightly, but what she was thinking about was what Yi Fei said.
Concubine Yi was the favorite concubine of Emperor Zhaochu. When she left the palace, she heard the palace residents passing by saying that Emperor Zhaochu would come to Zuoyi Palace at night these days and would not go to others at all.
So, what Concubine Yi said was because Emperor Zhaochu wanted to take action against the General's Mansion?
My grandfather said that when my father and brother attacked Dongao Kingdom, they were following the orders of Emperor Zhaochu.
It has to be said that Emperor Zhaochu used this move very well to kill two birds with one stone.
If his father and brother win, then the Wanqi Kingdom will expand its territory, and Emperor Zhaochu, as the emperor, will naturally be the biggest beneficiary.
If his father and brother were defeated, then Emperor Zhaochu would take the opportunity to hold them accountable, and he could completely take over the General's Mansion.
Back then, when King Pingxi was defeated, didn't Emperor Zhaochu's father forcefully break King Pingxi's legs?
"Princess?" Ziqing was a little worried when she saw that the princess was absent-minded.
"Ah?" Xie Yao came back to her senses and smiled.
"Did something unpleasant happen to the princess?" Ziqing realized that something was wrong with the princess today.
"Nothing, I'm just a little tired. I'll just lie down for a while. You can go and rest." After Xie Yao finished speaking, she lay down.
Seeing this, Ziqing couldn't ask any more questions, so she retreated uneasily.
On the bed, Xie Yao's mind was very confused and she gradually fell asleep.
When she woke up, it was already dark.
I got up and took off my clothes, and sorted out the medicine box again. When I saw that there were medicines for recovering from miscarriage, I suddenly thought of Liang Zhixian.
I just had a miscarriage and was taken home. I don’t know how my body is doing. I’ll go and take a look tomorrow.
Moreover, after meeting Ding Yifei and his concubine, she was a little worried about Liang Zhixian.
Early the next morning, after Xie Yao had breakfast, she set out to find Liang Zhixian.
The servant who opened the door didn't know Xie Yao, but when he saw that Xie Yao claimed to be Princess Han, he didn't dare to neglect him. When he asked someone to go in and report, he immediately led Xie Yao inside.
The servant was going to lead Xie Yao to the front hall, but as soon as he reached the door, he heard an angry curse coming from inside: "Liang Zhixian, I am your mother-in-law. You are driving me crazy by acting like this!"
"
The servant trembled and said, "Princess Han, please forgive me. I didn't know that there were already guests in the front hall. I will take you to the side hall. Please come this way."
Xie Yao stood still, her eyes darkening slightly, "It doesn't matter, I'm just here to find Liang Zhixian, you have nothing to do here."
The servants did not dare to resist Princess Han's words, and hesitated whether to go in and report the matter. In the end, they did not go and retreated obediently.
Just as Xie Yao was about to step in, Ding Yifei's voice came from inside again.
"Zhixian, why are you doing this? Wouldn't it be better to pretend not to know?" Ding Yifei's voice was helpless and a little angry, "I have promised you not to bring her into the house, what else do you want?
How about it?"
"Son, you shouldn't have asked her to come back in the first place! Even if you took a concubine, what could she do to you! Since when did taking a concubine become unacceptable? Is it just because she is the daughter of the Taiwei family?"
It was the voice of Granny Liang Zhixian, Mrs. Cui.
"Yifei, it's only been a few days, have you forgotten what you promised at the Taiwei Mansion?" Liang Zhixian asked coldly with red eyes.
"Of course I remember! I didn't break my promise to take a concubine! It was you who brought her to the house, not me." Ding Yifei was speechless. Why couldn't he explain it to Liang Zhixian?
"What's the difference between the way you look at her outside and taking a concubine!" Liang Zhixian asked angrily, "If I don't break your good deed today, how long are you going to keep it from me?"
"I have promised you not to take concubines, can't you tolerate even this little thing? I didn't bring her back, I just found a yard for her outside. If you become pregnant, I will sever ties with her.
"Isn't this the best of both worlds?" Ding Yifei also became a little angry.
"What if she gets pregnant first?" Liang Zhixian looked at Ding Yifei sadly.
"...Then I have no choice but to give her a birthright. I can't let my children not recognize their ancestors and return to the clan." Ding Yifei quickly replied.
