Chapter 224 224 is not good (eighth update)

Dozens of people had gathered around, all pointing and talking at the gate of the Tai Madam and the palace.

"Is this old woman really Princess Chen's grandmother?"

"I think it should be, otherwise the people from the palace would have driven her away long ago!"

"Oh, Princess Chen is too heartless to not even care about her own father."

"That's right, there are no bad parents in the world."

“…”

These comments also reached the ears of the Dowager, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

The Chu family had great righteousness in this matter, and since the matter originated from Prince Chen's palace, Chu Qianchen should intercede with Chu Lingxiao.

Amber quickly walked up to the Madam, bowed her knees first, and said, "Madam, please get up."

The madam felt she had won, and raised her chin and said, "I want to see the princess!"

She had the attitude of "She will never get up unless Chu Qianchen comes to see her."

Amber sighed helplessly, looked around at the crowd, and said loudly: "The emperor is guilty of the same crime as the common people. Marquis Yongding is guilty and should be handed over to the government for judgment."

"Mrs. Tai, by forcing the princess here, aren't you exposing the princess to injustice and putting the law of the country on the wrong side?!"

"The princess said that for the sake of national law and justice, even if she is accused by thousands of people, she will never show favoritism!"

Her righteous and awe-inspiring words immediately caused everyone's attention to change.

Rather than filial piety or anything like that, these people prefer to see those who are in office deserve their punishment. Only in this way can they feel that justice exists and feel the joy of being happy.

Amber added: "The trial of the three divisions will be tomorrow. Please feel free to go to Dali Temple to watch the trial."

Everyone cheered and applauded, and some even praised Princess Chen for her selflessness, and the atmosphere was warm.

The door of the palace was quickly closed again.

Everyone pointed at the madam, and some "kindly" advised her to relax. If her son was innocent, Sansi would definitely restore his innocence.

Grandma Wang quickly came to help Mrs. Tai get up. Mrs. Tai knelt down not long ago, but she was old, and she felt her knees were numb after not kneeling for a while. She staggered onto the carriage of the Marquis Mansion amidst the boos of others.

Not only did the madam fail to get any favors from her trip, she even left in despair without seeing Chu Qianchen's people.

Until the carriage drove away, the madam still felt her face burning and painful.

"Madam, please rub your knees." Grandma Wang hurriedly kneaded Madam's knees. While doing so, she complained that Chu Qianchen didn't miss the love between father and grandson.

A few days ago, Mrs. Tai would have scolded Chu Qianchen with righteous indignation, but now she felt exhausted both physically and mentally and didn't want to speak at all.

In the past few days, she had deeply felt that the situation was tense.

She couldn't get into Duke Mu's house, and her sons were looking for connections everywhere. They gave away a lot of money like water, but the other party took the money back, but their attitude was ambiguous.

Even Concubine Chu in the palace was panicked and wanted to help plead for mercy, but she was scolded by the emperor and ordered to think about her past in Zhongcui Palace. Concubine Chu was almost demoted, but the emperor still wanted to do it for the sake of the second prince. Only then did he give up.

Mrs. Tai had no choice but to come to see Chu Qianchen today. She really had no other choice but to kneel down and beg her granddaughter to show her favor. However, Chu Qianchen was cold-hearted and still holds a grudge.

The Madam didn't know what else to do, so she just sat there in a daze, not even knowing when the carriage would drive into the Marquis' Mansion.

Grandma Wang called her several times before she came back to her senses. After getting off the carriage, she went to the main hall in a carriage.

The main hall was packed with people from all four rooms of the Chu family, including the grandchildren.

Chu Lingyu looked at Mrs. Tai expectantly, "Mother, how are you doing?"

The wife sat down with the help of Grandma Wang and shook her head.

Seeing that Mrs. Tai returned without success, everyone was panicked and anxious, as if countless raindrops fell into the lake, making ripples.

Although these rooms in the Marquis Mansion often have minor frictions, and the other three rooms are somewhat jealous that the eldest room occupies the title, everyone knows that once the title is lost, the Chu family will be doomed.

Therefore, they have been working together and working hard in the past few days. However, they have been disappointed again and again.

Now that the Marquis Mansion has not been deprived of its title, they have already fallen into a situation where they are ridiculed and treated coldly. Then when the title is gone, they will be trampled on by others.

Everyone looked at each other, becoming more and more uneasy as they thought about it.

Several juniors did not dare to speak because their elders were around.

Mrs. Liu couldn't help but complain: "Mom, Sister Chen is so heartless that she doesn't even care about her own father!"

The more she spoke, the more excited she became, "My uncle acted too recklessly and angered the emperor. Now he has not only harmed himself, but also the whole family..."

Mrs. Liu didn't care what Mrs. Liu said about Chu Qianchen. When she heard her scolding her eldest son, she became angry and scolded: "You are a woman who talks about the affairs of the court in vain. What do you, a woman, know about the affairs of the court? As a younger brother and sister, you can't even think about it." You dare to speak out about your uncle’s right and wrong!”

The madam scolded her fiercely and vented her previous dissatisfaction with Chu Qianchen, while everyone else remained silent.

"..." Mrs. Liu felt aggrieved, but she didn't dare to refute. She could only look at Chu Lingyu for help.

Chu Lingyu was also dissatisfied with Chu Lingxiao in his heart, but he knew that his mother had always favored his eldest brother, and at this time, him speaking for Liu would only make his mother even more unhappy.

The madam scolded her hard, and everyone else was silent.

After scolding the lady for a while, she felt even more tired. She rubbed her brows tiredly and wanted to go back to Rongfu Hall. At this time, a woman in green clothes ran over panting and shouted: "It's not good! "

"Madam, the second master... is not good!"

Everyone in the hall was already depressed. After hearing this, their hearts sank, and they all had an ominous premonition.

Could it be that something happened to Chu Lingxiao in Tianlao? !

The woman in green clothes quickly walked into the main hall, her breath was quick, and she said: "Madam, something happened to the eldest... eldest young master!"

Young Master? ! The madam was startled and blurted out: "How is Brother Yi?"

The woman in green said in a trembling voice: "The eldest young master is seriously injured..."

There was a loud commotion from behind, and several chamberlains were seen carrying a stretcher. On the stretcher lay a young man in blue, with his body covered in blood. Even though they were still far away, everyone in the main hall could see that the young man on the stretcher was seriously injured.

"Brother Yi!" Madam Tai stood up in a hurry, her face was pale and her body was shaky.

She was exhausted both physically and mentally today, but to make matters worse, even her eldest grandson had an accident!

The rest of the Chu family also stood up, their expressions changing drastically.

In an atmosphere of panic, several chamberlains carried the stretcher into the main hall and placed it on the ground.

The person lying on the stretcher was indeed Chu Yunyi.

His eyes were tightly closed, his hair was disheveled, and there was dried blood at the corners of his mouth. The blue robe on his body was even stained with blood and stains. He was breathing more out, less breathing in, and his breath was very weak. He was completely different from his usual energetic appearance. people.

"Brother Yi!"

"What the **** is going on?! How could he be injured like this?!"

The eyes of everyone in the Chu family fell on Chu Yunyi. They were all confused, or frowned worriedly, or were surprised, or showed uneasy expressions, or looked at them coldly and had nothing to do with them. .

There was also a senior **** in his forties who was accompanying him. The senior **** said in a high-pitched voice: "Mrs. Chu, the eldest young master of your mansion is seriously injured. You should prepare and take care of his funeral arrangements."

"Oh, what a pity."

The eldest **** sighed and clasped his hands.

He glanced at Chu Yunyi on the stretcher with complicated eyes. He wanted to say something, but he didn't. After all, the emperor hadn't expressed his stance yet.

The chief **** and the few servants arrived suddenly and left in a hurry.

The whole hall was silent.

From the Tai Fu to the young masters and girls of the Chu family, none of them dared to stop these servants. Their hearts sank, and the servants did not dare to say a word.

The air seemed to condense together at this moment, and there was a sense of oppression that a storm was coming.

"Madam!"

Suddenly, one of the maids screamed in surprise, and she saw the madam falling limply on the chair.

The main hall was in chaos.

Not only the Chu family, but Chu Qianchen who was in Prince Chen's Mansion also received the news that Chu Yunyi was seriously injured at the same time. His eyes widened and he was a little confused.

Jiang Yuan quickly reported the incident: "Princess, this morning, the emperor went to Yuanqing Temple. It is said that there was a furnace of elixirs to be released, so he went over to take a look."

"The emperor also brought the prince and several princes. The eldest son Chu went with the second prince."

"As a result, before the furnace was opened, the alchemy furnace suddenly exploded. Mr. Chu protected the emperor with his body. His back was hit hard by the exploded furnace lid. He vomited blood on the spot and fell unconscious. He was already carried away. Back to the Hou Mansion."

"..." Chu Qianchen pursed her lips tightly and her body tensed slightly.

The first thought is how could this happen? !

Chu Yunyi has been studying in the Imperial College since the beginning of September. Chu Qianchen asked people from Prince Chen's Palace to follow him for a while, fearing that he would do something stupid. Later, he saw that he went to the Imperial College obediently every day and did not act stupid again, so he did not let him go again. People followed.

Today is not a day for Chu Yunyi to take a rest. Why would he suddenly accompany the emperor to the Taoist temple with the second prince?

This is not what Chu Yunyi would do.

This kid is too weak to think of trying to please the second prince and interceding with Chu Lingxiao...

Jiang Yuan continued: "Princess, the imperial doctor has already taken a look and said that Mr. Chu's injury is very serious. He has been sent back to the Chu family, so that the Chu family can prepare for the funeral as soon as possible."

Chu Qianchen walked up from the Arhat bed in a hurry, his face turned pale and his eyes were deep.

She originally thought that Chu Yunyi was seriously injured, but she didn't expect that his injuries were so serious!

Chu Qianchen ordered without hesitation: "Prepare horses and carts."

Amber immediately responded, preparing horses and medicine boxes.

Jiang Yuan was not idle either. She guessed what Chu Qianchen was going to do and called ten guards from the palace to stand by.

Chu Qianchen rode a horse, took Hu Hue, Jiang Yuan and the palace guards with him and rushed to the Yongding Marquis Mansion as quickly as possible.

Naturally, the servants of the Hou Mansion did not dare to stop Chu Qianchen. They went to inform Chu Qianchen and welcomed Chu Qianchen into the manor.

Chu Qianchen dismounted at the Waiyi Gate and stood still when he saw Mrs. Liu slowly walking towards her, surrounded by several maids and women.

"Hey, isn't this Princess Chen?" Mrs. Liu's expression and voice were full of yin and yang, "You are finally willing to come back! I thought the princess was now aloof and didn't care about the life or death of her family!"

As she spoke, she approached Chu Qianchen.

Thinking about the punishment she had suffered these days, Mrs. Liu was holding back her anger. However, she could not get close to Chu Qianchen at all. A tall and mighty palace guard stood forward and blocked Mr. Liu's hand with his scabbard. The way forward.

Chu Qianchen was too lazy to talk nonsense to Mrs. Liu and asked straight to the point, "Where is Brother Yi?"

Mrs. Liu sneered coldly, "What? Princess Chen now remembers her natal family..."

Mrs. Liu originally wanted to mock Chu Qianchen, but the young guard standing in front of her snorted disdainfully and interrupted her.

The young guard's face was stern and his eyes were fierce, like a knife hidden in a sheath, filled with coldness.

These guards in Prince Chen's Mansion are all elites who have retired from the Northern Army. They have all fought on the battlefield, and their hands have been stained with the blood of many enemies. They are far from being comparable to ordinary guards.

With a look or a cold snort, he naturally released a murderous aura.

Mrs. Liu was just an ordinary housewife. Facing these people, she couldn't help but tremble. If it weren't for the maid holding her up, she would have been so weak that she collapsed.

This is just like bandits! Mrs. Liu thought to herself, not daring to say any more, and said tremblingly: "I'm taking it to Qingfeng Pavilion."

It’s still available at 12 noon. I need a monthly pass. There should be a guaranteed monthly pass today.
