Chapter 3: The Three Princesses Are Crazy
Chu Ning was helped all the way to the front hall by Jingqin.
Several of the highest-ranking officials in the court had already gathered there to discuss with Empress Yao how to deal with the aftermath.
As soon as Chu Ning appeared, everyone immediately turned their eyes to her.
"Ning'er, don't be afraid, it's all over." Queen Yao's kind voice came from behind the curtain, "And tell me everything that happened in the hall last night." ”
Last night, the four princes died, the emperor was seriously injured and unconscious, and only Chu Ning walked out of the main hall.
There was an uproar between the government and the opposition, and no one could guess what happened that night.
When Empress Yao mentioned this, everyone was even more nervous, and they pricked up their ears and listened carefully, lest they miss a word.
But the corners of Chu Ning's mouth twitched a few times, and he could only make hoarse and rough syllables in his mouth.
The corners of her lips continued to flow with sparkling saliva that slowly trickled down her chin, wetting the messy ends of her hair and sticking to her neck.
Everyone felt strange when they saw this, and they couldn't help but feel a little disgusted in their hearts.
And Chu Ning's throat was burning as if it had been burned by fire, and it was aching hotly.
She couldn't see anyone's face clearly, her eyes were filled with a large patch of mixed colors, and she only felt that her mind was swollen and the world was spinning.
"Your Highness, have you ever remembered how the thief hurt the Holy One?"
Chu Ning heard an old voice, which passed through the chaos and reached her eardrums, shaking her temples slightly.
Remember every voice, she reminded herself in her heart.
"Uh-huh......" she opened her mouth, saliva pouring out of her mouth again.
At this time, the effect of the medicine was strong, and Chu Ning was already drowsy, but he clearly felt those disdainful or disgusted gazes.
Those eyes were forced to stay on her, wandering not to see her face.
An unfamiliar voice sounded in her ears again, "Did Your Majesty say anything to the third princess alone before he was injured and fell unconscious?" ”
The emperor was seriously injured and unconscious, and his life and death were unpredictable.
The position of the prince was empty there, and the thoughts of the civil and military officials were also lively.
As soon as these words came out, it was like thunder on the ground, and everyone's eyes widened.
They all knew very well that Chu Ning had been pushed into the center of the whirlpool, and the slightest carelessness would shatter his bones.
But they all hope that this demented-looking princess can say what she wants to hear.
However, Chu Ning's expression was stupid, tilting his head and drooling constantly, unable to say a word.
Empress Yao, behind the bead curtain, looked at this scene coldly, and the corners of her lips provoked a mocking smile.
Her lips lifted, but her voice was amiable.
"This palace heard that Ning Er was frightened last night, and it seems that she has not recovered yet."
After listening to Empress Yao's explanation, the courtiers all shook their heads and sighed, thinking, it turned out that they were scared stupid.
Chu Ning's heart was burning with anger, but she couldn't open her mouth to refute, she could only memorize every word they said with her heart.
The old man's voice sounded again, "Niangniang, it's better to ask the imperial doctor to come and treat the third princess first." ”
There was compassion in the voice behind the curtain, "The palace has pointed out that Imperial Doctor Zhang specializes in treating the third princess, so let Ning Er recuperate for a while first." ”
"That's exactly how it should be." A slightly shrill voice sounded, "Colleagues, it's better for us not to bother the third princess again." ”
Someone snorted coldly, but did not speak again.
The eyes that had gathered on Chu Ning before were all scattered, as if no one had paid attention to her.
"Uh, ah......" Chu Ning wanted to tell them that he was not crazy or stupid at all.
But her mouth only attracted more disgust.
Empress Yao finally spoke, "Jingqin, send the third princess to Heyi Palace to recuperate, don't let others disturb the purity of the third princess." ”
"Yes." Jingqin helped Chu Ning's waist and pressed down, forcing her to bow to Empress Yao.
"And that child of the Han family," Empress Yao suddenly mentioned Han Tang, "There is a mess in the palace, let him go over to protect the third princess." ”
