The Useless Miracle Doctor Consort Is Spoiled Rotten by the Prince! Chapter 1578: 1573: War Ignites on Four Fronts in the Great
Chapter 1578: Chapter 1573: War Ignites on Four Fronts in the Great Wei Dynasty
Nurse Yan commanded the servants to pack up in an orderly fashion. Except for precious personal items, all other cumberso objects should not be taken, but rather locked in boxes and properly stored.
Upon hearing that she was to enter the imperial palace, Rong Yun imdiately asked Nurse Yan to take out the large box from the wardrobe, “Auntie, this must be taken with us, to the palace.”
“Princess!”
Nurse Yan shook her head, signaling Hong Xiu and Xiao Xiang to put the box down, “Although the emperor has not decreed it explicitly, we are entering the palace for refuge. Carrying this box is too cumberso. It would be best to place it in an inconspicuous spot within the mansion. Even if sothing happens, the rebels won’t touch it.”
“No, it must be taken with us!”
In this matter, Rong Yun was adamantly resolute, brooking no disobedience from anyone!
“Ah… Yes, as you command, my maid obeys!”
Nurse Yan had no choice but to instruct Hong Xiu and Xiao Xiang to bind the box back onto the carriage.
The Scarlet Fla King’s mansion entering the palace was to join the sa convoy, naturally, Rong Yun would run into Li Yunshu.
After tidying up the items in the courtyard and walking out to the carriage, she found that Li Yunshu had already taken her carriage.
All the things that had been packed up in their courtyard were directed by Chun Xing, under Li Yunshu’s order, and placed onto a few central carriages.
Xiao Xiang couldn’t help but mutter under her breath imdiately, “Having managed the inner court of the prince’s mansion for so long, does she really think she’s the Princess herself? How dare she sit in the Princess’s carriage. Isn’t she afraid of overstepping?”
“Xiao Xiang, keep your voice down!” Hong Xiu pulled on her sleeve to remind her.
If it were in the past, Nurse Yan would have already scolded them, telling them to watch their words, but now, Nurse Yan stayed silent, her eyes full of dissatisfaction as well.
However, she was clearer than these young girls that they were of low status and weak in power now, not suitable to fight with Li Yunshu over such positions.
Li Yunshu’s father and brothers were currently on the battlefield, and her grandfather, the Old Duke Li, was a key figure in liaising with the Prince of Zhao; the emperor highly relied on the Li family at present.
And Beiling City… at this ti, was unable to send troops to aid the Great Wei Dynasty.
Therefore, Rong Yun didn’t dare to argue, nor could she afford to argue.
Nurse Yan supported Rong Yun, “Princess, let us take this middle carriage to the palace first, and discuss further afterward.”
Rong Yun, having no intention to argue, followed Nurse Yan’s suggestion and boarded the carriage directly.
She shared the carriage with her maids, and beside her was Wei Mingze leading his n, guarding her.
Chun Xing, seeing Rong Yun and her group being put down, was very pleased, and swaggered up to Wei Mingze, “Palace Guard Wei, the secondary consort still has so items not yet moved, and there are other concubines in the mansion who also need help moving things. Please lead your n and lend a hand.”
Her commanding deanor seed as if Li Yunshu was truly the mistress of the Scarlet Fla King’s mansion.
Wei Mingze’s saber hung obliquely at his waist, his handso face stern, completely ignoring her.
Chun Xing persisted several tis, but Wei Mingze and his palace guards, like logs of wood, completely disregarded her, which infuriated her enough to run to Li Yunshu to complain, “Secondary consort, look at that Palace Guard Wei, defying your orders, they refuse to help us move our things!”
Li Yunshu sat in her carriage, pulling aside the curtain and peering out. She glanced back at the team dressed in white robes and black gowns, each exuding an aura of a soldier accustod to the battlefield, steadfastly protecting Rong Yun, their loyalty unwavering.
Such grandeur was sothing she hadn’t experienced even after half a year in charge of the mansion.
Envious in her heart, Li Yunshu was nevertheless unwilling to quibble over such trifles, and dismissed the matter coldly with a wave of her hand, “Set off! Leave them be!”
“Yes,” Chun Xing huffed coldly.
She originally thought that after her family’s secondary consort managed the household for so ti, she had beco more generous.
But their journey to the imperial palace was not peaceful; halfway through, they were ambushed by rebels who charged straight at Rong Yun’s carriage. From several carriages away, they could hear the heart-wrenching screams behind them.
Chun Xing was startled, “Secondary consort… the rebels have co, and the Princess and her party…”
“Sit tight, don’t bother with them. Tell the driver to speed up, and let’s ‘flee’ to the palace!” Li Yunshu’s lips tilted at an angle, and even with her eyes closed to rest, her smug expression could not be hidden.
Rong Yun, haha!
Li Yunshu had originally thought that upon her arrival at the palace, according to her grandfather’s plan, those lifted into the palace would be the corpses of Rong Yun and her entourage.
But what she never expected was that, just one hour after she entered the palace, Wei Mingze, along with Rong Yun and her people, ca to pay respects to the Empress Dowager together, all unhard, with not even a single hair out of place on Rong Yun!
“How could this be…”
Li Yunshu secretly gritted her teeth. How could her grandfather’s thods go wrong?
Upon learning that the group from the Scarlet Fla King’s mansion had been attacked, the Empress Dowager couldn’t catch her breath and didn’t even drink her dicine. Now that Rong Yun had co to see her, her heart had finally cald down a bit.
She waved to Rong Yun, “Child, co to grandmother’s side and let take a look at you!”
Rong Yun lifted her skirts and walked to the Empress Dowager’s side, kneeling beside her couch, “Paying respects to the imperial grandmother, you can rest assured, I am alright.”
As she spoke, she tilted her head and put the top of her head into the palm of the Empress Dowager.
The Empress Dowager pinched her soft cheek and finally breathed a sigh of relief, “Grandmother was so worried about you, it’s good that you are fine.”
If sothing had happened to this granddaughter-in-law, her grandson would probably go mad!
“What exactly happened, and why were you attacked for no reason? Why did the rebels specifically target you?” Qin Ge also rushed over; she had co with the Empress.
She was concerned for Rong Yun, but she also wanted to bla her.
Because of the attack she suffered, quite a few people from the Scarlet Fla King’s mansion died, including one of the concubines, whom she had selected for Qin Muyan, originally intended to help him spread his progeny.
But she was killed by the bandits.
She was originally following Rong Yun, yet Rong Yun was unhard, and she ended up dead.
Qin Ge truly felt it was a pity.
Kneeling beside the Empress Dowager, facing Qin Ge’s accusations, Rong Yun replied helplessly, “I don’t know what happened. Wei Mingze was protecting all the way.”
If Qin Muyan hadn’t assigned Wei Mingze to stay by her side at all tis, she certainly would have been in trouble today.
Qin Ge’s gaze fell on Wei Mingze, “You? Aren’t you one of Mu Yan’s capable n? Instead of following him into battle, you’ve shrunk back to the prince’s mansion to serve as a palace guard for the Princess?”
The more Qin Ge looked at Rong Yun, the less satisfied she beca. After being provoked several tis by Li Yunshu, her dislike for Rong Yun had grown even more, and seeing Wei Mingze here made her feel all the more displeased.
Wei Mingze knelt down, cupping his fist, “Reporting to the Eldest Princess, I was following His Highness’s orders, to protect the Princess without leaving her side, and during this assassination attempt, I noticed sothing unusual.”
As he spoke, his cold gaze turned towards Li Yunshu.
Li Yunshu’s entire body shuddered, and the hand inside her sleeve clenched involuntarily into a fist.
“What irregularity?” The Empress, though visibly exhausted, still maintained her dignified composure and a stable deanor.
