With the token given by the Queen Mother, Su Qingyu could be welcomed in even if she had the key to the palace gate.
As soon as she entered the palace, she immediately inquired about the whereabouts of Emperor Ming, so she went straight to Zhongcui Palace.
When she arrived at the door of Zhongcui Palace, she took a few deep breaths, then rubbed her red eyes vigorously, and smeared the fair half of her face with mud from the ground, and let Caiwei do the same.
It's just that she looked so ugly and miserable, even Caiwei was frightened.
Caiwei said timidly: "Princess, that's about it, right? If you wipe it off again, His Majesty will only be able to see your eyes."
Su Qingyu moved her neck from side to side, as if going to fight: "This is the effect we want!"
After she finished speaking, she prepared her little expression and cried hard in the dark night, scaring Caiwei to the point of trembling.
"Your Majesty! Help! Prince Ling is seriously injured and is in danger. My daughter-in-law begs your Majesty to save Prince Ling's life!"
"Your Majesty! Prince Ling's mansion was attacked late at night, please save Prince Ling!"
"Your Majesty! My daughter-in-law begs Your Majesty to meet my daughter-in-law! If it's any later, His Highness Prince Ling may not be able to hold on any longer!"
"His Majesty......"
Emperor Ming, who was sleeping deeply, was so frightened by Su Qingyu's sudden voice that he almost rolled off the bed.
Su Qingyu's voice was really loud, and the repetition rate was very high. Even in this dark night, she could always hear a few words clearly.
"What's going on? Who is making ghost noises in Zhongcui Palace in the middle of the night?"
Concubine Hui immediately asked Xia He to go outside to see the situation, and then said warmly: "Concubine, listen, it sounds a bit like Princess Ling's voice."
Emperor Ming frowned: "It's midnight, the palace door has been locked, how did she get in?"
Concubine Hui smiled softly and pointedly said: "I heard that the Queen Mother was happy today and gave her a waist badge that can enter and leave the palace anytime and anywhere. She must have entered the palace with this waist badge. "
Emperor Ming's brows were filled with anger: "What's going on? Haven't you asked clearly yet?"
After the words fell, Xia He came back in a hurry and knelt outside in a panic: "Your Majesty, Madam, Princess Ling said that Prince Ling's Mansion has just been attacked by a large number of assassins. His Royal Highness Prince Ling is seriously injured and his life is in danger!"
"What did you say? Prince Ling was assassinated?"
"Back to Your Majesty, Princess Ling requested an interview..."
"Tell her to come in!"
Emperor Ming immediately stood up, put on his shoes and cloak and went to the outside. Su Qingyu happened to come in.
As soon as she came in, she knelt on the ground and cried so hard: "Your Majesty, please save the prince!"
"You...how did you end up like this? What happened?"
By the candlelight, Emperor Ming saw Su Qingyu's miserable state in his eyes, and he couldn't look straight at her.
Su Qingyu sobbed and said: "Your Majesty, Prince Ling's Mansion was besieged by killers in black tonight. The entire Prince Ling Mansion resisted with all their strength, but they still allowed the enemy to hurt Prince Ling!"
"Your Majesty! My daughter-in-law is now without a master. Please save King Ling, send an imperial physician to Prince Ling's Mansion, and send some imperial troops to guard the gate of Prince Ling's Mansion!"
If these words were normal, Emperor Ming would definitely think that Su Qingyu was treasonous and wrong, and she dared to teach the emperor how to do things.
But now the situation was urgent. In order to save Lu Yuncheng in extreme panic, she could not control her words properly.
The more disorganized Su Qingyu became, the more convinced Emperor Ming became: "When someone comes, please send the Taiyuan Hospital to Prince Ling's Mansion immediately and do your best to treat Prince Ling!"
"yes!"
"Have Zhuang Zhou and Zhou Lin go to Prince Ling's Mansion immediately to investigate the case thoroughly, and send additional manpower to protect the safety of Prince Ling's Mansion!"
"yes!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Your Majesty..."
Su Qingyu got up from the ground in "extreme panic" and almost tripped over her own skirt, but Caiwei reached out in time to hold her up.
"It's okay, it's okay... Let's go back and see the prince..."
Su Qingyu picked up her skirt and turned around to leave. It wasn't until she was almost at the door that she suddenly remembered that she hadn't said goodbye yet.
Her expression was dull, and her movements were stiff as she prepared to salute: "Father, please forgive me, my daughter-in-law..."
Emperor Ming sighed: "Don't worry about these false gifts, go back to the house quickly."
Seeing Su Qingyu's devastated look, Emperor Ming, for some reason, felt sympathy: "You... I will go see Yun Cheng after the morning court."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Your Majesty..."
Zhongcui Palace returned to peace, but Emperor Ming's heart could not calm down at all.
He had just been kind to Lu Yuncheng, but these bastards couldn't wait to strike, and they were still deadly!
If it was a fight between masters, he had nothing to say.
But the person behind this was clearly slapping him in the face and telling him, the emperor, not to be nice to anyone easily!
Emperor Ming sat outside, closing his eyes and saying nothing for a long time.
Concubine Hui came out of the inner room feeling a little uneasy.
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Prince Ling was assassinated. Doesn't Princess Ling know medical skills? Why did she go to the palace to find the imperial doctor?"
Emperor Ming's tone was without any warmth: "My husband's life or death is uncertain. If you were the wife, could you still calm down and save his life?"
Concubine Hui's face turned pale, and she could only respond: "Well, naturally, caring will cause chaos, and I can't concentrate on the treatment. I think it's too simplistic. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
Emperor Ming's eyes were fixed on Concubine Hui's head for a long time, until her whole body became a little stiff, and then he looked away.
"Your Majesty, it's still early, do you want to sleep again..."
"No need."
Emperor Ming left as soon as he said so, leaving Concubine Hui standing there, feeling uneasy in her heart.
"At dawn, go to Prince An's Mansion and ask Chong'er if he was responsible for this matter."
Xia He responded in a low voice.
The night breeze was slightly cool, and Concubine Hui no longer felt sleepy.
If this matter was really the result of King An's anger, she would have to think of a way to save it quickly. She couldn't lose the Sacred Heart that she had held for so many years because of such an irrelevant person.
"Also, go to the Shangshu Mansion again and ask my eldest brother to clear up the relationship with Prince An in the court. Even if Chong'er did this, no one can blame him!"
"yes."
Concubine Hui was puzzled. It was just a little Prince Ling. So what if he was appreciated by His Majesty now? As long as he is a cripple, he will never have anything to do with that position.
"Chong'er is really confused this time!"
Xia He lowered his head, not daring to answer the question at all.
At this moment, the palace of Prince Ling was so busy that people were almost overwhelmed.
When Yuan Zheng and Zhou Lin arrived at Prince Ling's Mansion, they were almost stunned by the scene in front of them.
There were many corpses lying on the ground, including those of killers and those of royal guards. Even Qingfeng and Mingyue were covered in scars, with blood stains all over their bodies.
Yuan was carefully avoiding the corpse, but suddenly he stepped on a foot full of blood. He was so frightened that his blood suddenly disappeared, and he almost fell to the ground after staggering.
Fortunately, his apprentice helped him in time: "Master, be careful!"
Mingyue received the look from her princess and immediately said: "Master Yuan Zheng, my prince is seriously injured. Please save my prince, Mr. Yuan Zheng!"
