Traveling through the worlds, my husband comes here to smell the scent

Chapter 117 His Highness is Pretending to Be Serious Again (71)

"Cough cough cough..."

Qi Yunyan touched her heart. She felt a sharp pain in her heart just now, but it soon subsided. She felt an inexplicable sense of relief.

She pursed her lips, not knowing where this feeling came from.

Now that she is raising a Gu in her body, she has to endure extremely strong pain every day and night. In the past two days, she fainted several times because she couldn't bear it.

It was not until someone outside found her and helped her to the couch in the carriage and she rested for a while that she woke up.

Counting the days, she had been away for about ten days. She would arrive in Chu in one day, and in a few more days she would reach the capital.

It is worth it for the few people who accompanied us, who took turns traveling day and night.

Soon it was the day of the banquet

Before the banquet started that day, Xu Shuyan left the Prince's Mansion. In the past two days, it was difficult to even see him, let alone send him soup.

Forget about the strategy, she is like a prisoner, locked in the yard, and restricted from moving around. She is not allowed to go anywhere, especially not to hang around in front of the Crown Princess.

But the damn thing is, doesn't the prince stay at the Crown Princess's place all day? If she doesn't allow him to go, how can he meet His Highness?

After several days of suffering, she finally couldn't bear it anymore and returned to her father during the banquet. It was too much of a loss, and she also lost a mind-reading pill.

Anyway, she can't marry the prince, so she begs her father to find her a good marriage.

Thinking this way, she figured it out. It was too difficult to reach the sky in one step. She should just be a princess. She had been locked up in the prince's mansion for the past few days, which made her hallucinate.

She woke up so quickly because of a dream she had in recent days. As for this dream, it was not accidental. It was because Nuozi felt that she had made An An unhappy and disliked her, so he created a nightmare for her, which foreshadowed the future.

In the dream, she died in a very tragic way because she tried to drug the prince but failed. As a result, she ended up having sex with a servant by mistake. The emperor was furious and made her marry the lowly servant.

She completely forgot that he also supported her in the beginning. She begged for mercy, but the emperor was not soft-hearted at all.

In the end, her father failed to save her, so she could only accept her fate.

Who knew that this servant was a pervert, torturing her day and night. I don't know how he bribed the servants, so that no news could be spread.

Her father felt that she was shameful and disappointed in her, so he never came to see her again. She was tortured to death.

At this moment, she no longer had any evil thoughts, and she only wanted to live. As for the servants in her dream, they were currently by her side and had not yet discovered

But the dream was so real that she felt scared. After thinking about it, she felt that it was not worth risking her life for this unrealistic future.

No matter what, she was still a princess. Because of these reasons, she treated her servants a little better. Although she was still arrogant, she was not as harsh as she was at the beginning.

She was afraid that if something really happened one day, there would be no one around her who could help her.

Although Nuozi did not have good intentions and just wanted to solve the problem quickly and stop her from jumping around, he indirectly saved her and allowed her to escape the fate of death.

Chu Yi sat on the high seat, looking at the princes below, raised his wine glass and said happily

"The banquet I'm hosting today is to honor the princes for their contributions to the State of Chu. I'm very pleased with your contributions to the people. I offer a toast to all the princes."

"Your Majesty's praise"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your consideration."

…………

After some polite words, the palace servants brought out boxes of gold, silver and jewelry as rewards. Some of the treasures were sent by the small tribes under their jurisdiction.

The princes did not care about the money, but the emperor's attitude. This approach made them very satisfied.

"Why didn't the Second Prince come today?"

The one who spoke was the one Su Ran had won over. He looked at the prince opposite him. Shen Youan was eating quietly beside him, while Chu Yuxiao was setting the dishes for him.

Looks very loving

Chu Yi looked at this scene, his heart was as calm as water

It was also clear that Chu Yuxiao had made up his mind that no one would listen to his advice. He looked at Xu Shuyan who was sitting quietly beside the Third Prince and frowned.

Finally he sighed, the child is grown up, he can't care so much

Su Ran looked at his people and asked this question. Then everyone realized that the Second Prince had not come. He suppressed his dissatisfaction, smiled, and explained to everyone:

"Chen'er has been poisoned and is resting in the mansion. He is currently trying to find a way to detoxify himself and will not be able to attend the banquet. Please understand."

After saying that, she clenched her fists, wondering if it was really so serious that she couldn't even walk?

How will the people she is trying to win over view this matter?

Today she was not favored as usual, sitting next to Chu Yi, Su Ran did not care, sooner or later one day, everyone would have to listen to her

I watched the dances of the palace maids, the treasures presented by the small tribes, and tasted the new dishes in the palace.

After several steps, the banquet slowly came to an end.

At this time, Chu Yi glanced at Fu Chang, and Fu Chang signaled the people behind him to come out.

Ciying, dressed as a maid, came out from behind the stage.

"Ciying, the servant of the late Empress Su, pays homage to the Emperor and implores His Majesty to make a decision for my Empress."

Ciying knelt on the ground, and everyone was stunned. What was she doing?

Only Su Ran stared at Ci Ying kneeling on the ground, as if he would personally kill her in the next second.

Without waiting for Chu Yi to answer, Ci Ying told him word for word the tortures Su Ran had used on her over the years, as well as the drugs used to keep her alive.

The most important thing is that the death of Queen Su was not an accident, but was planned by Concubine Su Ran.

Taking advantage of the last bit of mercy that Queen Su had for her and the years of affection between them, she tearfully said she wanted to reconcile, saying that she was wrong, and tricked Queen Su into eating the drugged cake.

Su Yiwen died of premature bleeding

Su Ran calmed down at this time and angrily scolded Ci Ying

"Where did you come from, you lowly maid? How dare you slander me? When my sister died, I was also deeply saddened. You have no evidence, do you have any proof?"

"The wounds on my body are evidence. You imprisoned me, who knew about the situation, and that is evidence. The place where I was imprisoned before had a special medicine brought by the imperial concubine. I didn't use it all. I kept a little bit to keep the evidence. I think there must be such medicine in the imperial concubine's palace. In order to torture me and keep me alive, have you never thought about this day?"

"You said that sooner or later, you would let me see you ascend to the throne. It seems that I will not see it anymore."

Ciying's voice was hoarse, and her laughter was wild and terrifying. Her vocal cords had been damaged during the torture.

Su Ran watched her bring out the final evidence, raised the corner of his mouth, and laughed in his heart, "Stupid!" She didn't know that everyone around her was her own people, and she could have destroyed all the so-called things that could prove the truth when collecting evidence.
