In comparison, Qin Chuan and Xiao Luo were even worse.
Both of Qin Chuan's hands were crushed by Yu Guang, and the tendons of his hands and hamstrings were also severed.
In order to save her life, the imperial doctor cut off both of her hands, which made her truly feel the despair of those who died under her sword.
I think back then, she also treated other defeated generals like this.
She just didn't expect that she would be so painful when the same thing happened to her.
Qin Chuan gave birth to the third princess and the eighth princess to Ye Chen. When the third princess got married, Ye Chen had not yet ascended the throne.
Therefore, the third princess married a knight-errant, and the two of them wandered around the rivers and lakes like wandering clouds and wild cranes, and did not return to the capital often.
Based on the current situation, they may not be able to return to the capital in the future.
The eighth princess is the youngest among all the princes and princesses. She is just four years old now.
She was ignorant and only knew that her mother-in-law was injured, and the nuns around her no longer treated her as well as before.
The usual bird's nest snacks are gone, and her breakfast today only comes with two pickles.
She cried for a long time, but her grandmother, who used to pick her up whenever she cried, just looked at her coldly.
Even the clothes she wore were the same ones she had worn yesterday.
As for the other things, Princess Eight has not thought of them yet.
But she just felt very wronged.
Now seeing her mother-in-law lying on the bed with her eyes closed and saying nothing, the eighth princess couldn't help but shake Qin Chuan's arm: "Mother-in-law, mother-in-law, wake up!"
The palace was quiet. Everyone knew that Qin Chuan had lost power, but they really had no sympathy for Qin Chuan.
Isn't that what happens in the palace? Everything you say arrogantly is full of intimidating momentum, but once you lose power, you have to curl up your tail and hide it.
Thinking back on how domineering Qin Chuan was back then, even when dealing with the Queen, he would do whatever he asked.
It is not unfair to be in this situation now.
The only thing they didn't expect was that the Queen, who was as soft as a melon, could become so powerful after she exploded.
In their hearts, the queen is like a sleeping tiger, and the empresses are like mice surrounding the tiger.
Although he can get some verbal advantage on weekdays and provoke the queen from time to time, the tiger always wakes up.
This morning, they heard another story.
It was said that the Empress was not dead in the first place, but was drugged by several empresses to fake her death and prepared to bury the Empress alive.
All the palace residents who went to the mourning hall that day were sent to the prison and will be dealt with soon.
Although His Majesty and several empresses are still alive, they are tortured to the point of death by the empress.
From this point of view, this statement is not completely unreasonable.
In fact, they were more worried about themselves than Qin Chuan, the concubine.
Concubine Shu at least still has the title of empress. The empress will definitely give Concubine Shu a decent death, while servants like them have to find a way to survive on their own.
Since her hands were amputated, Qin Chuan has been in a state of half-asleep and trance. The events that happened when she was walking in the world all appeared one after another in front of her eyes.
There are her enemies, her benefactors, and some who have received gifts from her.
The last thing that appeared was the queen's face.
Qin Chuan hated the queen, but she couldn't remember why she hated the queen in the first place.
Perhaps it was because the queen graciously accepted her into the house and made her become Ye Chen's concubine.
Although Ye Chen said that these women were equal, they all knew in their hearts that they could never hold their heads high in front of the queen.
Especially her, every time she was alone at night, she crazily missed the days when she was in the world.
Sometimes, she really wanted to tell the queen to stop pretending to be so generous.
If the queen had directly refused to let her in, she might be much freer and happier than she is now.
As the eighth princess's cries became louder and louder, Qin Chuan's consciousness gradually became clear.
She remembered what happened before and her injuries.
Qin Chuan opened his eyes suddenly, just in time to see the eighth princess crying with tears streaming down his face.
Seeing Qin Chuan wake up, the eighth princess sniffed and shouted in a milky voice: "Mother concubine."
Great, the concubine finally woke up. She was really scared just now!
Qin Chuan subconsciously wanted to raise his hand to touch the eighth princess, but what caught his eye was his own arm wrapped in a snow-white bandage.
Qin Chuan's body trembled unconsciously. How could she forget that she was now a disabled person.
Qin Chuan closed his eyes hard, but the cry of the eighth princess was still in his ears.
I noticed that there were many palace people around me, but no one came up to persuade the eighth princess.
Qin Chuan suddenly opened his eyes and pushed the eighth princess out of bed with his elbow: "Get out of here, you don't want to cause trouble!"
The eighth princess was originally kneeling and crying next to Qin Chuan, but after this push, she sat down on the ground.
The eighth princess obviously didn't understand why Qin Chuan suddenly turned against her. She was stunned for a while, and then she started crying hysterically: "I'm going to tell my mother."
But all she received in response was Qin Chuan's cold word "Go away".
The Eighth Princess sat on the ground and cried until her voice became hoarse. Seeing that Qin Chuan really didn't want to see her, the accompanying nun came over to help her up and coaxed her in a low voice.
Maybe she was crying too hard, and the eighth princess had already begun to hiccup. The nanny gently patted her back while carefully looking at Qin Chuan's expression.
But all he got was Qin Chuan's cold words: "Take her and get away."
Qin Chuan's words completely broke the eighth princess's heart. The eighth princess hugged the nanny's neck hard: "I want the queen mother, I want to find the queen mother."
The Queen Mother is the gentlest, but the Queen Mother doesn't like her to get close to the Queen Mother.
But now she is very angry with her mother and concubine. She wants to go to her mother and concubine, which will make her mother and concubine unhappy as well.
Seeing that Qin Chuan didn't say anything to stop him, the foster mother saluted Qin Chuan, then hurriedly left with the child in her arms.
She also wanted to know if the Queen would accept the Eighth Princess.
Hearing the footsteps of several people leaving in a hurry, Qin Chuan tilted his head inside and cried silently.
That's good, that's good. As long as Xiaoba can get the Queen's pity, there may be a way to survive.
The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. She is already waiting for death and can no longer protect Xiaoba.
I hope the queen can be more generous and let Xiaoba grow up safely.
In the Palace of Concubine Xian
The third prince was kneeling beside the bed to attend to Xiao Luo.
Xiao Luo's two hands were opened into two big cattail fans from the corner of his eye.
The imperial doctor was helpless and also cut off her hand.
It's just that Xiao Luo's hamstring is not broken, which is better than Qin Chuan's. At least she will be able to walk in the future.
Xiao Luo's fever had subsided in the early morning. Although she was still in a drowsy state, she kept talking about revenge and killing Yu Guang.
The third prince was heartbroken when he heard this: He must kill that bitch Yu Guang for venting such evil anger on his mother and concubine.
