Transformed into a vicious concubine? Being led by the eldest sister is annoying
Chapter 214: King Chen is assassinated
After Prince Chen left the palace, he went directly to the Sixth Prince's residence.
"Royal brother, why are you here?" The Sixth Prince looked at King Chen in surprise.
King Chen smiled and said, "I came to see you and chat with you."
The two sat down in the study, and King Chen briefly recounted what had happened in the palace.
The Sixth Prince frowned, "Someone in this palace actually dared to poison, how audacious."
"Yes, and the person behind this is definitely not simple." King Chen said in a deep voice.
The Sixth Prince was thoughtful, "Brother, who do you think it could be?"
King Chen shook his head. "It's hard to say now, but it's definitely related to someone in the palace."
The two chatted for a while, and then King Chen stood up and said goodbye.
The news that one of the two daughters of the Left Prime Minister's Mansion was conferred the title of Princess of a County and the other of the Princess of a County soon spread throughout the capital.
There was also a storyteller telling the story of the two men saving the emperor.
Many wealthy ladies submitted visiting cards.
Unfortunately, both Bai Qianqian and Bai Jinyan refused.
However, only two good sisters, Lou Yishuang from the Right Prime Minister's family and Chu Yuxuan from the Shangshu's family, were invited.
Bai Qianqian and Bai Jinyan received Lou Yishuang and Chu Yuxuan at their mansion, and the four of them had a very pleasant conversation.
"Qianqian, you have really made a great contribution this time. The emperor even appointed you as a county princess. That's amazing!" Lou Yishuang said enviously.
Bai Qianqian smiled modestly, "Actually, I didn't do anything. It's all thanks to my elder sister."
"Yes, elder sister's medical skills are so great. It's great that she was able to save the emperor and the queen this time." Chu Yuxuan also echoed.
"By the way, have you heard anything interesting recently?" Bai Qianqian asked curiously.
Lou Yishuang thought for a moment and said, "There is nothing interesting, but my sister has been engaged to the third place winner, Li Shizi."
Bai Qianqian was not surprised at all that the two of them got engaged.
At first, I wanted to have the child so that Chen Wangxi could be the father.
If Chu Yuqin hadn't gone too far, she wouldn't have revealed that the child's father was the top scholar in the imperial examination, Li Shizi.
"Congratulations." Bai Qianqian said with a smile.
Chu Yuxuan sighed, "Originally, my second uncle wanted my sister to marry into a wealthy family, but I didn't expect her to fall in love with Prince Li. I just hope Prince Li is a good person and can treat my sister well."
"Whether it's good or bad, it's not something you can worry about." Bai Jinyan smiled faintly.
"By the way, do you know? The third prince was recently scolded by the emperor." Lou Yishuang said suddenly.
"Why?" Bai Qianqian and Bai Jinyan asked in unison.
"I heard that it was because of the incident between the Third Prince and the Minister of Military Affairs' daughter Jiang Yanyan. Thanks to Qingyan, I was able to escape the last palace banquet." Lou Yishuang sighed.
If Qingyan hadn't pulled her back, she would have gone into the room to change clothes.
"He deserves it." Bai Jinyan didn't sympathize at all.
She felt uncomfortable thinking about the last time the Queen admired the chrysanthemums in Weiyang Palace.
He actually set his sights on her and Master Shen's granddaughter.
I can only say that the Queen and the Third Prince really dare to think big!
"Yes, but this also shows that the emperor has taken precautions against the third prince." Lou Yishuang said.
"What about King Chen? Will King Chen be in danger?" Bai Qianqian asked worriedly.
"Prince Chen should not be in danger. He has never participated in party disputes. Moreover, he saved the lives of the emperor and the queen this time. The emperor should not do anything to him." Lou Yishuang said.
"I hope so." Bai Qianqian said.
As soon as Bai Qianqian finished speaking, there was a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly heard outside the yard.
Everyone was stunned, and Bai Qianqian stood up to open the door.
Standing outside the door was King Chen's personal guard, looking anxious.
"County Princess, something happened to His Royal Highness Prince Chen!" The guard's voice trembled slightly.
Bai Jinyan, Lou Yishuang and Chu Yuxuan stood up immediately, their faces changed drastically.
"Isn't the prince investigating the poisoning case? How could something go wrong?" Bai Qianqian was completely confused and couldn't calm down at all.
"Your Highness was attacked by an assassin on the way back home, and the current situation is unclear." The guard said quickly.
Bai Qianqian's heart sank suddenly. She immediately turned around and said to Lou Yishuang and Chu Yuxuan, "You go back first. I'll be there soon."
The two nodded and left in a hurry.
Bai Qianqian quickly followed the guards out the door, and Bai Jinyan followed closely behind.
When we arrived at King Chen's mansion, it was already in chaos.
Bai Qianqian rushed directly into King Chen’s room, only to see King Chen lying on the bed, his face pale and his breath weak.
"Your Highness!" Bai Qianqian threw herself to the bed, tears streaming down her face.
King Chen slowly opened his eyes, saw Bai Qianqian, and smiled: "Don't worry, I'm fine."
"How can you be okay? You were attacked by an assassin!" Bai Qianqian burst into tears.
King Chen gently held Bai Qianqian's hand and said, "I'm lucky, nothing will happen to me. But you guys, be careful, the assassin's target may not just be me this time."
Bai Qianqian was stunned, she looked up at Bai Jinyan.
Bai Jinyan's face also looked solemn.
"Your Highness, don't worry, we will be careful." Bai Jinyan said in a deep voice.
King Chen nodded and looked at Bai Qianqian again: "Qianqian, you have to be careful too, I..."
"What?" Bai Qianqian asked nervously.
King Chen suddenly fainted, and Bai Qianqian and Bai Jinyan were shocked.
Without Bai Qianqian saying anything, Bai Jinyan reached out to feel King Chen's pulse.
After a moment, Bai Jinyan released his hand and comforted him, "King Chen has lost too much blood. He will be fine after resting for a while."
After hearing this, Bai Qianqian breathed a sigh of relief, but the worry in her heart did not diminish.
In the next few days, Bai Qianqian and Bai Jinyan took turns to take care of King Chen.
And King Chen's condition gradually stabilized.
But the assassin's identity and purpose remain a mystery, which makes the two men feel increasingly uneasy.
At this moment, news suddenly came from the palace that the emperor wanted to summon Bai Qianqian and Bai Jinyan.
The two looked at each other and saw the worry in each other's eyes.
Bai Qianqian and Bai Jinyan did not dare to delay and immediately went to the palace to meet the emperor.
When they arrived at the palace, they were taken to the imperial study.
The emperor sat on the dragon throne with a gloomy face.
"Your Highness." Bai Qianqian and Bai Jinyan knelt down and saluted.
"Get up." The emperor's voice was low.
The two men stood up, lowered their heads, and did not dare to look at the emperor.
"You should already know about the assassination of King Chen," said the Emperor.
"Yes, I have heard about it." Bai Qianqian said.
"I have ordered a thorough investigation of this matter and must find out who is behind this," said the emperor.
"Your Majesty is wise." Bai Jinyan said.
The emperor glanced at the two of them and suddenly asked, "Who do you think the assassin's target is this time?"
Bai Qianqian and Bai Jinyan looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.
"Your Majesty, I don't know." Bai Qianqian said.
"I don't know either." Bai Jinyan said.
The emperor sneered: "You don't know? I think you should know."
