Chapter 296: Passing the Buck
Zhu Xintong begged hard before, but she couldn't bear her thoughts, and once knocked on the side, but she didn't want to be rejected by the king on the spot, and she didn't save face at all.
At that time, Princess Chen had already stopped thinking about letting Zhu Xintong marry the king.
What's more, Princess Chen has other thoughts in her heart.
Her prince is loyal to the prince, but the king is loyal to the prince and the first emperor, although the prince has always behaved very well to the prince, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that the prince may not like this prince, not to mention that King Chen also told her privately that he is afraid that he will not be able to tolerate the prince.
Emperor Yuancheng and the king have long been on discord, and Emperor Yuancheng and the crown prince are very likely to turn their faces on the throne.
Once she Chen Wangfu marries into the palace, it will only cause the prince to be suspicious of His Majesty and delay the future of Chen Wangfu.
Rather than that, it's better to choose someone else.
And the fifth prince is a good candidate.
Princess Chen's heart kept thinking, but she had a decent smile on her face.
She intended to let Zhu Xintong show her face in front of the queen, and couldn't help but smile and beckoned to Zhu Xintong: "Xintong, don't come to see the queen yet." ”
Zhu Xintong was thinking about Chen Ying's affairs at this time, his heart was both regretful and afraid, constantly thinking about what to do, and when he heard Princess Chen's voice, he walked in front of the queen in a trance, but forgot to salute.
Princess Chen suddenly frowned slightly, and pretended to be angry and reprimanded: "What are you in a daze, why don't you hurry up and salute your mother?" ”
Zhu Xintong's shoulders shook, his expression was flustered, and he knelt down with a "bang".
It was so loud that it alarmed the rest of the room.
The queen was taken aback and looked stunned, and Princess Chen looked at Zhu Xintong's pale face, only then did she realize that something was wrong, she frowned and said, "Xin Tong, what's wrong with you?" ”
Zhu Xintong panicked in her heart, but this urgency gave her a way to come up with a hurry, she hurriedly knelt down and took two steps forward, and said in a hurried voice: "Auntie, the queen's mother, Miss Chen has an accident." ”
The queen was stunned.
During the banquet, several members of the Chen family stood up violently.
There were only seven people who participated in the horse race, and among them, only Ah Ying was surnamed Chen.
Mrs. Chen said hurriedly: "What did you say? What happened to Ah Ying? ”
Zhu Xintong's face was anxious, as if he was a little frightened, and said: "When we were racing horses just now, Miss Chen ran too fast, and the horse didn't know why she suddenly went crazy and threw Miss Chen off the horse. ”
"Queen Mother, please send someone to see Miss Chen, I'm afraid she is injured..."
When Zhu Xintong fled in a panic, he only saw that Chen Ying was rescued, but he didn't know how she was injured.
At this time, she can only push things to the point of sudden madness before the others come back.
When she used her hands before, she only used a whip to stop the horse's legs, and she didn't hurt the horse, and at that time, Chen Ying was at the end, and she was behind Chen Ying, so no one else should have seen her do it.
She only needs to say that she is coming back for help, and even if Jiang Yunqing and the others want to sue at that time, she can refute it.
Zhu Xintong thought of this, the eagerness on his face became a little more sincere, and he said urgently: "I saw that Miss Chen fell down and fell not lightly, and I don't know what the injury looked like." ”
When the queen heard this, her face suddenly changed slightly, and Mrs. Chen's face was already white.
The crowd was noisy because of Zhu Xintong's words.
The county lord of Shao'an stood up and said urgently: "The queen ...... mother"
