Traveling to the ancient harem

Chapter 375 The Queen Mother

Qianqing Palace.

"The Emperor has arrived."

Following the shouts of the eunuch in charge of ceremonies, the emperor and his entourage filed in.

As expected, they saw the empress dowager sitting on the high throne with disheveled hair and bleeding.

"Where did this crazy woman come from? Is there no one in charge here?"

The little Prince Fu started to yell.

"Come here, give this crazy woman fifty lashes and send her to the Ministry of Punishment."

The Queen Mother was shaking with anger.

Yingchun came over and bowed.

"Prince Fu, this is the Queen Mother."

"No, right?"

Little Prince Fu was extremely surprised.

"How did the Queen Mother end up in such a state? Was she... beaten into this state by someone?"

"Mother, what happened to you? Why didn't you ask the imperial physician to see you?"

The emperor asked, trying not to laugh.

"This is all thanks to your Concubine Ye."

The Queen Mother's heart ached with hatred, and she spoke in a bad tone.

"Oh, was it Concubine Ye who beat the Queen Mother like this?"

The emperor lowered his head and looked around on the seat below, but the yellow leaf was not there.

The emperor thought that the yellow leaf must be scared, so it didn't dare to come.

But he still had to pretend.

"Where is Concubine Ye? Why don't we see her?"

"You, Queen Mother, are so big and strong, but you can beat the skinny Concubine Ye into this state? Why don't I believe it?"

The restless little Prince Fu came out to interrupt again.

Just like the emperor thought, he also believed that Huang Ye had hidden himself.

The empress dowager, who was described as burly and strong by the young Prince Fu, was so angry that she gasped for breath.

She is also very slender.

This Prince of Fu was born to bring bad luck to her. Nothing good will happen if she meets him.

"Your Majesty, it was not Concubine Ye who beat her. It was Concubine Ye's pet bird that scratched the Queen Mother."

Nanny Yingchun came out to explain again.

"You mean the prince? The prince wouldn't hurt anyone easily."

The third prince decided to step forward and make his presence felt.

"That's right, the prince is a good bird. As long as you are a good person, it won't hurt you."

Little Prince Fu took over the words of the Third Prince.

The implication is that the Queen Mother is not a good person.

"You...you are going too far."

The Queen Mother was so angry that her face turned blue, and she felt her scalp was hurting even more.

"Call Ye Jieyu over to me. She can't escape today no matter what."

She said viciously.

"No need to shout, I'm here already."

Huang Ye led Hong Dou in from outside.

She first bowed to everyone present, then looked at the Queen Mother.

"My Queen Mother, you said my prince scratched you?"

"What? Ye Jieyu doesn't want to recognize me anymore?"

The Queen Mother asked sinisterly.

"It's not that I don't want to recognize it."

Huang Ye replied to the Queen Mother, then turned and looked at the Emperor.

"Your Majesty, I just went to Qiyun Palace to ask, and it turns out that it was the Queen Mother who wanted to kill the prince with a kitchen knife in the beginning."

"No wonder they say women have the most vicious hearts. Your Majesty, you are so vicious."

Little Prince Fu shouted hurriedly.

"you shut up."

The Queen Mother could no longer tolerate it.

"Your Majesty, you're just going to leave him alone and let him talk nonsense in front of so many people?"

"Xuanyuanze, please pay attention to your image."

The emperor spoke lightly to Prince Fu.

"Your Majesty, it's not me who should be concerned about my image, it's that..."

He pointed at the Queen Mother with disheveled hair.

Huang Ye held back his laughter and looked at the Queen Mother again.

"Empress Dowager, the kitchen knife in the small kitchen of Qiyun Palace was rusted and sent to the imperial kitchen. You couldn't find the knife, so you hit the prince with a chair..."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk... How cruel, to do such a cruel thing to a bird..."

Little Prince Fu couldn't keep quiet and kept commenting.

The Queen Mother knew this would happen.

None of these people, including her husband and her son, stood on her side.

She was badly injured, but no one came over to ask her how she was hurt.

No one went to call the imperial physician for her.

This is all caused by the vixen Ye Jieyu.

She must drag that bitch Ye Jieyu into this trouble today.

"No matter what, it was your pet bird, Ye Jieyu, that scratched your aunt. That bird must die."

Xu Rou, who had been silent since the emperor and others came in, shouted.

"Then may I ask, Concubine Xu, if someone hits you with a chair, will you hide or not?"

Xu Rou found it difficult to answer this question from Prince Fu.

If she said to hide, it would be natural for the bird to catch her aunt.

If she said she wouldn't hide, wouldn't she be a big fool?

"I…"

Xu Rou hesitated and looked at the Queen Mother.

Should she hide? Or should she not hide?

She was afraid that if she said something wrong her aunt would hit her with a chair.

"Why? Is this question difficult to answer?"

Little Prince Fu picked up the chair next to him, held it up and asked Xu Rou.

"I'm hiding... I'm not a fool, why shouldn't I hide?"

Xu Rou was frightened and spoke hurriedly.

"Even Concubine Xu knows that she has to dodge when this chair falls down."

Huang Ye looked at the Queen Mother.

"I don't know what happened to my prince, the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother wanted to kill him."

"I don't like it, is that okay?"

The Queen Mother looked at Huang Ye as if she was an enemy from several lifetimes.

"I am still wondering how the prince offended the Queen Mother."

"It turns out that the Queen Mother didn't like the prince, so she killed him."

Huang Ye laughed softly.

"Although the prince is not a human, to me, he is a companion of mine, a companion closer than my family."

She bowed to the Queen Mother.

"The prince injured the Queen Mother in self-defense."

"I beg the Queen Mother to spare the prince for my sake."

"Hehe...your face?"

The Queen Mother laughed contemptuously.

"The bird must die today, or this matter will not end."

She decided to kill the bird that dared to hurt her first, and then hold Concubine Ye accountable.

Huang Ye spread his hands towards the little Prince Fu.

Among these people, the third prince is the Queen Mother's biological son, so he was not in a position to speak.

The emperor must pay more attention to his image and cannot openly favor her in front of so many people.

The emperor emeritus would not talk to the empress dowager easily.

The fifth prince is too young and powerless.

She couldn't save the prince, so now it depended on whether the young Prince Fu was capable or not.

Young Prince Fu knew that it was time for him to help his adopted sister.

"Ye Jieyu, you are also a person who doesn't know how to behave. You are still begging her. Don't you see that she is determined to kill the prince?"

The young Prince Fu looked towards the Queen Mother.

"Don't think you're the only one who's smart. Why are you taking your anger out on the prince? Don't you have any idea?"

"I went to Qiyun Palace to invite the emperor to come to the banquet with me. How can you vent your anger on me?"

The Queen Mother was afraid that others would know what she was thinking, so she quickly spoke up to stop Prince Fu from speaking any further.

"Come on, I don't even want to say anything to you."

Prince Fu decided to take drastic measures.

"Didn't you go to Qiyun Palace to harass my uncle? How dare you say that what I said is not true."
