In the special ward of the Royal Private Hospital, the 15-year-old fourth princess Xiao Xingyue had just come out of the treatment cabin, her delicate face so pale that there was no trace of blood.
"Xingyue." The elegant woman supported her distressedly and carefully helped her to the hospital bed.
Xiao Xingyue lay on the bed and smiled wanly, looking at the woman and the man who had not spoken a word since entering the house, and weakly shouted: "Mother, father, I have nothing serious to do."
The men and women in this room are none other than Emperor Xiao Junchen and Queen Lu Qingzhu of the Xingluo Empire.
Seeing her daughter's weak appearance, Lu Qingzhu was so distressed that she almost burst into tears. She asked in a tearful voice, "What on earth is going on? Okay, how come you were attacked at the gate of the college?"
"Have you seen the person clearly?" Emperor Xiao Junchen finally spoke, his first words since entering the room.
Xiao Xingyue smiled bitterly and shook her head: "My daughter didn't see clearly. It happened too suddenly. As soon as I came out of the school gate, a speeding car jumped out from the side."
"What do your bodyguards do for food?!" Lu Qingzhu asked angrily upon hearing this.
Xiao Xingyue glanced at her father, who was frowning and silent, and then said bitterly: "Two of the four guards rebelled. Originally, my daughter could escape this disaster, but the two rebels stopped her remaining two guards. "
Lu Qingzhu's eyebrows stood up when he heard this, and he was obviously furious.
The guards around the royal family members are all trained from an early age, especially the personal guards of the princes and princesses. They are not only trained from an early age, but only those who pass the review at all levels can be assigned to the princes and princesses.
Why did the guards around the fourth princess suddenly rebel?
After thinking about this, not to mention Lu Qingzhu's expression changed, even Emperor Xiao Junchen felt a chill in his heart.
Guards trained in such a strict manner can rebel, but what about the personal guards around them?
Xiao Junchen's face turned ugly, but looking at Xiao Xingyue's pale face, he slowly softened his expression. After all, she was the princess he had always loved. He lowered his voice and said: "Xingyue, don't worry, this matter is my father's." The emperor will investigate thoroughly, so you can rest in peace and recuperate first. As for the guards who are with you, the emperor will replace a new batch for you."
"Thank you, Father." Xiao Xingyue smiled obediently at him. Seeing the gloomy look on her father's brows, she said sensibly: "Actually, my injury is not serious. Father, don't worry. What happened today will probably cause trouble outside." There are a lot of rumors about her. Father, there is no need to waste time with his daughter. You can go back to the palace first. It doesn’t matter if your daughter is alone."
The emperor is not that easy to be. There are many things waiting for the emperor to deal with every day. In addition, Xiao Junchen really has to rush back to the palace to deal with the incident of the princess being attacked.
Seeing that his daughter was so sensible, Xiao Junchen's face finally showed a smile. After a few more instructions, he looked at the queen sitting in front of the hospital bed.
Lu Qingzhu's eyes were slightly red, and he forced a smile to the emperor who was looking at him, and said: "Your Majesty, go back first. I want to spend more time with Xing Yue here."
Xiao Junchen nodded, knowing that her daughter had just been attacked and the mother was worried, so she immediately said in a good voice: "I will leave half of the guards here, and I will ask the guard chief to come and pick you up later."
"It's all up to you." Lu Qingzhu nodded with a smile, and then urged: "There are still things in the palace, so your majesty should go back first. There is also Xingyang. I'm worried that something will happen to him impulsively. Your majesty sent someone to stop him. It's not very safe recently. , don’t let him leave the palace alone.”
"Okay." Xiao Junchen nodded, and gave the mother and daughter a few gentle words before striding out of the ward.
It was not until the ward door opened and closed that the gentle smile on Lu Qingzhu's face gradually disappeared. Not only her, but also Xiao Xingyue on the hospital bed changed from her well-behaved appearance.
The expressions of the mother and daughter both darkened at the same time, and with a bang, the vase on the bedside was swept down with great force and fell to the ground, shattering to pieces.
Lu Qingzhu turned to look at his daughter who had dropped the vase, and the gloomy look in his eyes softened a little. He said calmly: "Control your temper. Your father always likes well-behaved and obedient children."
Xiao Xingyue's unopened face looked a bit green and tender, but the anger in her eyes ruined her original delicate appearance. She gritted her teeth with anger and said: "Control your temper? Mother, how do you want me to control it?" Temper? In broad daylight, many people saw how embarrassed I was when I was attacked."
Lu Qingzhu reached out and took an apple from the fruit plate, took out the fruit knife on the fruit plate, peeled it slowly, and said: "So what if I saw it? You are the fourth princess of the Xingluo Empire. Even if you are in a sorry state, you can still do it." It’s not the lowly people who can see the joke.”
Xiao Xingyue glared at the broken porcelain pieces on the ground hatefully, then turned to look at Lu Qingzhu and asked cruelly: "Does the Queen Mother know who it is? Is it Xiao Xingze?"
"No." Lu Qingzhu frowned, a dark look flashing in his eyes.
"Who is that?" Xiao Xingyue growled: "If you dare to attack me, I will never let him live."
Lu Qingzhu held the fruit knife for a moment, and then said calmly: "I will handle this matter, and you can rest in peace during this period."
Xiao Xingyue couldn't hear the perfunctory tone in her mother's words. She looked at her conspiratorially and said, "Mother knows who it is, but she doesn't want to tell me?"
Lu Qingzhu looked at her calmly, his voice still had a natural gentleness, "I said I will handle it, this matter ends here."
That's it?
Does this mean that she has suffered this in vain?
Xiao Xingyue's character is inherently sinister and twisted. She has always been a person who refused to suffer losses since she was a child. How could she give up so easily after suffering such a big loss this time?
But Xiao Xingyue was also very smart and noticed Lu Qingzhu's avoidance. She only needed to use her brain to understand the reason immediately.
She laughed, with sarcasm in her eyes, "I know, it's my brother the prince, right?"
Lu Qingzhu's calm eyes changed slightly, and Xiao Xingyue said mockingly: "Since we were young, my good prince brother has always ignored me and my brother. Even if we pass by him, He can also treat us as nothing. With his temperament, how could he attack me for no reason? You must have done something, right? So I was attacked today because he was warning you, right?"
Lu Qingzhu looked at her calmly without saying a word, with no emotion in his eyes, as if he was looking at an unrelated stranger.
Every time Xiao Xingyue sees this kind of look, she can't help but want to provoke her mother. She will say whatever words are most touching to her heart.
"Why is the queen looking at me like this? Did I say something wrong? In fact, I have never quite understood. Since you care about him so much, why did you do that in the first place?" Xiao Xingyue's face was full of malice and sneer. Said: "Sometimes I really don't understand what you are thinking. You say you care about him, but you are the one who treats him the most cruelly. You say you don't care about him, but whenever he appears, your eyes will always be there. Be the first to look at him.”
"Xingyue!" Lu Qingzhu shouted lightly, with a warning in his tone.
However, Xiao Xingyue didn't care at all. She looked at Lu Qingzhu provocatively, laughed, and said while laughing: "Mother, who do you love in this life? Is it him? Is it me? Or my brother? No, Maybe you love first..."
'Snapped-------! '
Before Xiao Xingyue could finish her words, Lu Qingzhu slapped her directly in the face.
Lu Qingzhu stood up suddenly. When Xiao Xingyue covered her face angrily and glared at her, her well-maintained white palms were already pressed on Xiao Xingyue's neck.
Although it was such a dangerous move, Lu Qingzhu still had an elegant and noble temperament on her body. She quietly looked at her frightened daughter and said in a soft and gentle voice: "Xingyue, you are already fifteen years old. Well, children of the royal family are no longer considered children at the age of fifteen. You have to understand what you can and cannot say."
The malice and sinister look on Xiao Xingyue's face turned into fear, like a frightened chick.
Lu Qingzhu seemed very satisfied to see her look like this. She slowly let go of her hand and gently smoothed the hair in front of her forehead. She chuckled and said, "You ask me who I love most in this life? Silly boy, What I love most is of course the emperor. Whoever can give me a lifetime of glory and power is the one I love the most."
She loved the late Emperor if he could give her a lifetime of glory and make her the most enviable woman in the entire empire.
When the late emperor could no longer give her the glory that surpassed all others, she could abandon the former emperor and marry the next emperor.
The prince's biological mother, or the new emperor's biological mother, was not what she wanted.
What she wants has always been to become the most powerful woman in the empire!
