Chapter 64: Disfigurement
The queen's words made Bai Lichen's face darken a little, and after he left the queen's bedroom, he hurried back to his palace and called the guards around him that day.
"I asked you to solve the matter of the third imperial concubine before, and you have already ordered it to go down?"
"Yes, His Royal Highness the Prince, I have already ordered it to go down."
The guards didn't know why the prince suddenly mentioned this matter now, which was a little strange.
"Your Highness is worried about what you are doing? The people sent are the best assassins in the East Palace, and they will definitely succeed immediately. ”
The attendant's words made the prince's eyes even more frightened, if the third imperial concubine was really dead, and the father found out that this matter could be related to him, then it was conceivable what his result would be.
"Quick, find someone to call these people back, if the third princess is really dead, and my father finds out about me, the position of the prince will be handed over!"
He gritted his teeth and urged.
"But Your Highness, this has already been ordered, is it too late to turn back now......"
"Go!"
The attendant was startled by the prince's cry and immediately left the palace.
The prince got up and walked towards Liu Lingxi's house, although he didn't have a good impression of her, but in the end, he couldn't ignore it, and he still had to take the time to sit down.
Unexpectedly, although this Liu Lingxi is everyone's young lady, she has her own set of skills to hook people, and immediately firmly trapped the prince.
……
In the past few days since he came back from the Prince's Mansion, Mu Qing always had a bad premonition.
I don't know why.
She always felt that someone was following her.
It's not just her, but even Bai Lichen is aware of it.
"This is someone sent by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
He hooked his lips and smiled, obviously not putting these people to tears, and there was a chill in his eyes.
"Sent to kill you."
In Mu Qing's eyes, the prince could be said to hate Bai Lichen's younger brother very much, but he didn't expect Bai Lichen to shake his head.
"Kill me? Naturally not. ”
Instead, his eyes fell on Mu Qing's body, and she was hairy when she saw her.
"He's here to deal with you."
"Me?"
Mu Qing couldn't believe it, she felt that it was just Bai Lichen who was alarmist.
But if you think about it, the prince was rejected by himself, and if he really wanted to do it to himself, it was not without reason.
It's just that she doesn't have any usable manpower on her hands, so she can't be asked to take down the assassins sent by the prince with her bare hands.
"You...... Is there a way? ”
Mu Qing looked at Bai Lichen.
He has never done useless things, and the reason why he is saying these things to himself now must be because he has a way.
"Naturally, there is, but it depends on whether you are willing to cooperate."
The crown prince is still very powerful in the court, and under the rumors of the ministers before, in the eyes of the emperor, although his son does not have much ability, his virtue is still good, since this is the case, he cannot choose to abolish the prince easily.
Now is the best opportunity to weaken the crown prince's power, and he can't afford to miss it.
"If you want the prince to be stable for a while, you may have to suffer a little."
Can a little suffering be exchanged for a period of peace? Mu Qing agreed in a hurry.
Bai Lichen put the note that had been prepared a long time ago in front of Mu Qing, and when he saw the words on the note, Mu Qing felt that he might have been calculated by Bai Lichen, a fox.
But if this thing is done well, it will also be good for her.
Gritting his teeth, Mu Qing finally agreed.
"Okay, I'll do that."
Dealing with people like Bai Lichen is really not good without paying attention to it.
After walking out of Bailichen's study, Mu Qing called Xin'er and told her to prepare some things to come over.
"Miss, what do you want to do with chicken blood, that thing is very angry, it's better for you to touch less."
After Xin'er listened to what Mu Qing ordered, there was a little disgust on her face.
"Okay, okay, this is for big things, don't care so much, just do what I tell you to do."
……
The next day, Mu Qing's carriage set off from the Three Princes' Mansion, saying that he was going to the palace to talk to the Queen Mother.
"Niangniang, are you really okay, are the people of His Royal Highness the Third Prince already nearby......
Xin'er cautiously opened the curtain and observed the little maid who was carrying the sedan chair and a few maids, no matter how she looked like a Lian family, her heart became more and more uneasy.
"It doesn't matter if something happens to the slave, but if you are injured, ......"
Hearing this, Mu Qing, who was wearing a veil, smiled.
"Since the third prince said that someone has been arranged to protect us, it is naturally arranged, so don't worry."
Soothing patted Xin'er's hand, she touched her face under the veil, today for this plan, she tried her best to paint a special effect makeup, the purpose is to let the prince's wish be granted. ’
"What people!"
The carriage stopped suddenly, and several screams came from the surroundings, it was the head of the guards.
A few assassin-like figures sprang out from the side of the secluded street, staring at Mu Qing in the curtain of the carriage, and a dozen assassins swarmed up.
Except for a few guards led by him, Mu Qing and his party were all ordinary subordinates, so naturally they didn't dare to continue to stay here, so they hurriedly left Mu Qing in the sedan chair and ran away by himself.
Mu Qing didn't panic, she hid quietly in the sedan chair.
Just as the assassin's sword was about to plunge into the palanquin, the palace guards suddenly appeared.
At this moment, Mu Qing slashed his hand on the assassin's sword, and the assassin was caught by the Praetorian Guards before he could react.
"! , what's wrong with your face! ”
Mu Qing gave Xin'er a look, her veil had already been taken off, and her face was densely covered with 'scars', some of which were bleeding, and she looked very terrifying.
"Mother, your face! Woo, what about your face! ”
When the Praetorian Guards on one side saw this, they couldn't help but be shocked.
The three princesses are clearly disfigured by others!
How do they explain to the three princes, the whole capital knows the relationship between the three princesses and the three princes......
"Quick, hurry up and pass on the doctor to the third imperial concubine!"
Xin'er shouted at them, and specially instructed him to find the doctor who treated the three princesses on weekdays, and then the group sent Mu Qing, who looked embarrassed, back to the Three Princes' Mansion.
Because Mu Qing was originally going to see the Queen Mother in the palace today, the Queen Mother saw that Mu Qing had not come for a long time, thinking that something had happened, and sent someone to inquire, only to know the bad news.
"What! Tell the mourners again! ”
The Queen Mother's eyes widened.
"Disfigured...... Who the hell did this! Quick, send someone to spread the word and let the emperor come over! ”
She already liked the eccentric Mu Qing, but now that she heard this bad news, she naturally couldn't let this matter end hastily.
The emperor was found by the Queen Mother, and only then did he know the news, and he felt very uncomfortable.
"Rest assured, I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly, and the top priority is to call the imperial doctors to come over and see if there is any remedy."
After a while, the whole palace knew that the three imperial concubines were attacked by gangsters, and the villains were ruthless and even ruined the appearance of the three imperial concubines.
"You idiot! How many times has this palace told you not to touch the third princess, why don't you listen, you! You're really going to be angry with Hongu! ”
The queen slapped the prince in the face, and the prince bowed his head.
"Queen Mother, I don't know why these assassins ruined the appearance of the Third Imperial Concubine, the retainers clearly just asked them to kill the Third Imperial Concubine, those people were allocated to me by the Queen Mother, you should also know ......"
Hearing the prince's words, the queen's eyes immediately changed by three points.
Thinking that Mu Qing had used this kind of action before, she had successfully scared back the spies she had sent to the Three Princes' Mansion, and she also felt that Mu Qing's injury this time was a little strange.
Immediately, she ordered a few imperial doctors who were used to being used by herself, and went to the palace of the third prince to visit her in the name of beauty.
"The queen has a heart."
Who knew that by the time she arrived, the emperor would already be in the Three Princes' Mansion.
The prince gritted his teeth secretly in his heart.
When he had an accident, where did his father care so much, but now it is just that Bailichen's concubine's appearance has been ruined, and the emperor actually came to visit in person.
"This palace has brought a lot of imperial doctors over, and the imperial doctors in the imperial hospital are all exquisite, there will definitely be a way, the third imperial concubine, you ......"
"I don't want it! I don't want it! ”
Before Mu Qing could finish speaking, he shouted behind the curtain.
"My face is ruined, I don't want to ask the doctors to look at it again, if I die......"
Then he lay on the bed behind the curtain and began to cry.
Imperial Physician Chen, who had been standing on the side for a long time, walked up at this time.
"Back to the emperor, the queen mother, Weichen has already shown the third imperial concubine Niangniang, this knife wound is deep and visible, plus this villain is ruthless, seven or eight knives were cut on the face of the third imperial concubine, and the minister barely stopped the bleeding, but this scar must be ......"
After speaking, she sighed, showing that she was hopeless, and the queen wanted to continue to persuade the emperor to let the imperial doctor go in and take a look, but the emperor only glanced at her lightly.
"The queen doesn't have to be like this, I see, the third princess has always felt uncomfortable now, it is better to tell her to have a good rest, I look at this Dr. Chen's medical skills, if there is a way, he will definitely not make the third princess so painful."
"But the emperor ......"
The queen still wanted to speak, but after seeing the emperor's warning gaze, she finally chose to close her mouth, but she became more and more suspicious in her heart if this matter was directed and acted by Mu Qing!
The purpose is to target their mother and son.
