Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain
Chapter 404: I Can't Walk
"You...you should go too. I don't want to see you right now..."
For some reason, as soon as the familiar scent of ambergris on Xiao Zhan's body entered her nostrils, Jiang Xue's tears burst out like a floodgate. She cried and pushed Xiao Zhan's chest, trying hard to push him away.
"Xiaoxue..." In the more than one year since they got married, this was the first time Xiao Zhan saw Xiaoxue crying so sadly.
His chest felt like it was being pressed down by a huge rock, making it impossible for him to breathe and causing him excruciating pain.
He held her back tightly and refused to let go no matter how she struggled.
Seeing Jiang Xue on the verge of a mental breakdown, Xiao Zhan knew that he had underestimated the importance of the little girl named Liuli to Xiaoxue.
"Brother, why don't you just persuade the emperor to depose Jiang Xue? Why do you want to keep her alive?"
In Fengming Palace, the Queen was so angry at Su Ming that she was jumping up and down.
What a great opportunity this time, I could have killed that bitch Jiang Xue and vented my anger! But I missed it in vain.
"Why are you yelling at me?" Su Ming stared at his sister with a mocking tone, "You are a legitimate daughter of the Su family. Didn't your father teach you that 'walls have ears' and that you should be careful with what you do and say? Look at your current behavior. You don't look like a queen at all."
This sister has been spoiled since she was young. She could make as much noise as she wanted at home before, but now she is the queen. There are so many eyes on her in the palace, and she can actually lose her composure in front of him. It's really impossible to stick mud on the wall.
"Brother..." After being scolded by her elder brother, the queen was so scared that her back tightened and she lowered her head obediently, never daring to lose her temper again.
From childhood to adulthood, she was most afraid of this brother, but she also relied on him the most. In front of him, she was afraid of being scolded, but she couldn't help but act like a spoiled child and lose her temper.
Seeing that his sister had calmed down, Su Ming's expression eased a little.
"You saw what happened just now. The little girl did die at the hands of her and Xiao Zhan. They proved their innocence with their actions. How can I accuse them? If this gets out, what will the common people think? What will the royal family think? Are we going to let the Su family bear the crime of killing people and indiscriminately killing innocent people?"
"But that woman killed Tingchuan and Yumo, and the pervert Xiao Huan also fell into her hands. Not only that, our forces were messed up by her and Xiao Zhan, and we are just going to let them go?" The queen asked back. When she thought about her trump cards being cracked one by one by Jiang Xue and Xiao Zhan, she was so angry that her teeth were itching.
"We, the Su family, will not allow ourselves to be bullied. Don't worry, I have my own ways to deal with them. I will let them know how much they will have to pay if they dare to go against our Su family." Su Ming gritted his teeth and slammed his fist on the Eight Immortals Table, which shook three times.
"How is it? Princess still refuses to eat?"
Since Liuli's death, Jiang Xue locked herself in her room for five days, not seeing anyone, including Xiao Zhan. No, to be more precise, it was precisely because of Xiao Zhan that she became more distant.
Seeing that the food outside the door had not been touched, Fu Dong sighed, put down the new food, and took the cold food back.
When she returned to the kitchen, Granny Chen saw the leftovers she had brought back and felt distressed.
"Man is made of iron and rice is made of steel. How can the princess' body bear not eating?"
The princess is already thin. If this continues, what if she becomes sick from hunger?
After thinking it over, Grandma Chen quickly served a bowl of hot soup that had been simmered overnight and asked Fudong to deliver it.
"Even if you don't want to eat, it's always good to drink some soup. Girl, this bowl of soup is my exclusive secret recipe. It's appetizing and healthy. Please persuade the princess to drink it. I guarantee it will whet your appetite."
Granny Chen really likes the princess. From the time she entered the mansion until now, except for the time when she brought Miss Lu to cook in the kitchen, the princess has kept the mansion in good order. Moreover, the princess and His Highness get along well and support each other, which the servants can see.
Their Highness has suffered a lot since childhood and doesn't confide in others much. Most of the time, he bears the suffering by himself. To His Royal Highness Prince Gong, these old people not only treat him as their master, but more as their own relative. Seeing him sad, they also feel distressed.
He finally married a beloved princess, and the two of them got along very well. Since the marriage, it was obvious that the princess was much more cheerful than before, which made them admire and appreciate Jiang Xue.
So this time when the two of them had a conflict, the ones who were most anxious and angry were the old ministers of Prince Gong's Mansion.
During these five days, the princess had an uncomfortable time, and His Highness was also in a dark cloud. The servants who delivered meals were like treading on a cat's tail, for fear of bringing bad luck to His Highness.
"Mrs. Chen, is the meal for our Madam ready?" Just as Fudong was about to go out with the soup, the kitchen curtain was lifted and in rushed Madam Zhou's personal maid.
When she saw Fu Dong, the maid rolled her eyes, then glanced at the soup in her hand and said with a sly smile, "Hey, this soup smells delicious. It's just right. Our lady is thirsty. Let's send this soup to our lady's courtyard first."
She knew clearly in her mind that Fu Dong was Jiang Xue's man, and she also knew that as the maid of the queen, she could not control him.
But aren't the princess and His Highness in a cold war now? And for the past five days, His Highness has been staying with their wives, so now their wives have the highest status in the palace. In this case, it is only natural for her to order Fu Dong around.
Fu Dong didn't move, but just stood there with a stern face, staring at the girl coldly.
If the maid had a little bit of insight, she would have seen that Fu Dong was suppressing his anger, but unfortunately she didn't see it. Seeing that Fu Dong turned a deaf ear to her words, she became even more aggressive and stepped forward to provoke: "What's wrong? Are you deaf? Can't you hear me? Southern barbarian, you really don't know the rules."
After saying that, he reached out to grab the soup from Fudong's hand.
Fu Dong had practiced martial arts before, so dealing with this arrogant little maid was a piece of cake for him.
She just raised her hand and a stone flew out, hitting the maid's ankle. With a snap, the maid fell to her knees in front of Fudong. Her ankle was sprained and swollen like a steamed bun, and she couldn't walk at all.
"Ouch! My feet."
The scream was shrill, and both Fu Dong and Chen Po frowned.
Her shouting was so loud that it attracted a crowd of onlookers, including many maids of other ladies.
A group of people gathered in a circle, talking in a buzzing voice.
"Sister Fudong, I just saw that my wife was thirsty and wanted to bring a bowl of soup back. Even if you are doing this for the princess, you can't do this! The princess is the queen, and my wife is just a concubine. If you say that this is for the princess, I will definitely give it to you respectfully! How can you be so overbearing just because you have the princess's support."
In front of everyone, the maid immediately changed her expression, pretending to be pitiful, crying and accusing Fu Donglai.
