Chapter 229 The concubine of the Prime Minister’s Palace VS His Royal Highness the Crown Prince (18)
Tang Yu had long expected that Tang Wanrou would not be able to sit still after hearing the news.
After all, the concubine who had always been suppressed and humiliated by her and was inferior to others, actually saved His Highness the Crown Prince and even gained His Highness's favor.
This is something Tang Wanrou has never gotten after many years of marriage to the Prince's Mansion.
But this may not be a bargaining chip to gain Tang Wanrou's trust.
Tang Yu immediately put on a loyal look, not caring about the serious scars on his back, and hurriedly got up and stumbled off the bed and knelt on the ground.
Tang Wanrou stroked her pregnant belly with one hand and sat on the soft couch in the room.
Aunt Chen stood beside her, looking like a loyal servant to her master, looking at Tang Yu with eyes that made her want to take a bite of meat.
Tang Yu only wore a bellyband and a pair of thin trousers on his lower body. His body was slender, and the blood on his back stained the white gauze red with this movement.
She looked respectful.
"This humble slave is here to see the Crown Princess, the Crown Princess Jin An. The mutilated body of this humble slave has really stained the eyes of the Crown Princess. Please forgive me."
Tang Yu's low posture made Tang Wanrou's face, which was still full of dissatisfaction, soften and become a little satisfied.
But when I think of His Royal Highness, her husband, who cared about this little bitch before leaving just now, I feel angry in my heart.
So Tang Wanrou stretched out a hand, and Nanny Chen raised her hand to support her gently.
Standing up, Tang Wanrou walked slowly around Tang Yu.
"It's hard for you to still remember who you are and not forget your origins just because of these days of pampering."
Tang Yu knelt on the ground, not daring to raise his head.
"You bitch don't dare, ah!!"
Before Tang Yu finished speaking, Tang Wanrou walked up behind her, raised her foot and pressed the toe of her shoe hard on Tang Yu's bleeding wound. The severe pain from the wound made Tang Yu bend his back.
His face suddenly turned pale, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
"Crown Princess, please spare your life. The slave has always remembered his identity and never forgot the words of the Crown Princess. It's just that at today's critical moment, the slave thought that the slave has only one life. If he saves the husband of the Crown Princess, he will be regarded as a slave." The slave is loyal to the queen, and please spare her life.”
Tang Yu begged for mercy intermittently, but his eyes were emotionless and calm.
She needs to gain Tang Wanrou's trust to implement her plan, and her forbearance now will come back with revenge in the future.
Tang Wanrou still couldn't control the strength of her feet. As long as she thought that her husband actually cared about this little bitch, she couldn't control her jealousy and anger.
Grandma Chen knew that Tang Wanrou had always disliked Tang Yu since she was a child. She despised her as a concubine and thought that her aunt had seduced the master, which caused the master and his wife to quarrel many times.
Therefore, the Crown Princess has abused this so-called sister and Aunt Liu since she was a child.
But after all, we are in the Prince's Mansion now, not the Prime Minister's Mansion. It would be terrible if others saw it.
"My Majesty, please calm down and don't behave like this little bitch. Your Majesty the Crown Prince still has a legitimate son in your belly, so don't let this bitch cause you to have fetal contractions."
After hearing what Grandma Chen said, Tang Wanrou put her foot down.
The wound on Tang Yu's back was already open, and the blood was covered with white gauze. The bright red color was shocking.
Tang Wanrou took a deep breath and didn't even look at Tang Yu who was lying on the ground in a panic.
"Remember your identity. If His Highness the Crown Prince falls in love with you, I don't know what your mother will do to your aunt."
Leaving these words behind, Tang Wanrou and Nanny Chen walked away.
Tang Yu supported his body and stood up expressionlessly.
She knew that today's test had passed, and Tang Wanrou was here just to test whether she was as cowardly, loyal and easy to control as before.
Now her performance just now has confirmed to both Nanny Chen and Tang Wanrou that she is still the little slave she once was, who allowed herself to be bullied and didn't know how to resist.
The two of them will definitely relax their vigilance a lot.
Moreover... Xiaotao should also take care of Grandma Chen's matter in the next few days, she will wait and see.
Xiao Yuan and Xiao Tao waited until Tang Wanrou left and then hurriedly entered the room. As soon as the two of them saw Tang Yu's pale complexion, the dirt on the knees of his pants, and the gauze that turned red as they got closer.
Madoka's tears immediately fell, and her anger surged.
"Master, this is what the Crown Princess did? She drove away Concubine Wan and Zhou Liangdi just to do this. She is so vicious. I know this. Her reputation as a virtuous and virtuous woman is all false. She is a poisonous woman. I am so vicious!" Just go and tell His Highness the Crown Prince to make the decision for you!”
Xiao Yuan was filled with indignation, her round eyes were all red, and she looked like she wanted to go and fight Tang Wanrou directly.
Tang Yu spoke in a weak voice to stop the impulsive Madoka.
"You can't go, and what will happen if His Highness the Crown Prince finds out? Punish the Crown Princess? Or divorce the Crown Princess? Don't forget, the Crown Princess has His Royal Highness's legitimate son. It's not an exaggeration to say that the whole country is paying attention to this child. , His Royal Highness is also full of expectations, and it is impossible for him to punish the Crown Princess just for this one."
Madoka's tears were streaming down her face, and she couldn't even wipe them with her sleeves to keep up with the speed of the tears falling.
"Are you going to suffer like this? You were injured trying to save His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. What are you doing, Crown Princess? You are so evil-hearted!"
Xiaotao calmed down first, stepped forward and silently untied Tang Yu's gauze, took the Ningxiang Dew from the side and changed Tang Yu's dressing.
Tang Yu's expression was calm throughout the whole process, as if she was not the one bleeding.
"I can only endure it like this, and the reputation of the Crown Princess as a virtuous and virtuous woman is well-known throughout the capital. Who would believe me if I said that the Crown Princess is evil-hearted."

Xiao Yuan also calmed down, but she was too angry just now. Now after hearing Tang Yu's words, she became much quieter, and without saying a word, she stepped forward to treat Xiao Tao's wounds together.
Tang Yu thought of the loyalty of these two maids in his previous life, and he didn't blame Xiao Yuan for being naive and simple now.
"Okay, who can say for sure in the future? By the way, Xiaotao, how did that matter go?"
Xiao Tao moved her hands gently while answering Tang Yu's words while distracted.
"This slave will do everything according to the master's instructions. Grandma Chen's son has already fallen into the trap. This slave has someone deliberately pretend to have a conversation on his way home every day, and take the opportunity to spread rumors that Qianjinfang will be here three days later. His favorite item in the auction Huan’s treasure, Chen Chun can’t help but go find out in three days. By then, we will have someone to capture him. At that time, there will be no pedestrians in the alley without being discovered, and everything will go according to the master’s plan.”< br>
Xiao Tao worked neatly, Tang Yu only gave Xiao Tao fifty taels of silver, and Xiao Tao was able to bribe twenty beggars of different ages to work loyally.
Tang Yu nodded with satisfaction.
Xiao Yuan had already experienced some changes in her heart after experiencing what had just happened, so she didn't ask any questions, just thinking that she could help her master like Xiao Tao.
Tang Yu noticed Xiao Yuan's mood and spoke warmly.
"And Xiao Yuan, I, Tang Yu, am lucky to have you two. Otherwise, the Prince's Mansion would be in dire straits, and it would be difficult for me to make any progress alone. Moreover, Xiao Yuan also helped me. Xiao Yuan's skills are pretty good. Otherwise, the rockery If you don’t control the direction of the stone and push it down, try not to hurt me, otherwise I might really be smashed to death.”
The little round eyes were red.
She never thought that was helping her master.
It's more like harming the master.
But he was still happy because of his master's words. Tang Yu saw Xiao Yuan smiling, and Xiao Tao couldn't help but smile. The master and servant were in harmony.
That's right, the injuries on Tang Yu's body were designed by herself, and the rock fall on the rockery was the result of her hearing Xiao Yuan and Xiao Tao talk about the rock fall that day, so she came up with the idea.
Xiao Yuan's father was an Orion, and he was the most skilled hunter in the country. Therefore, Xiao Yuan learned a lot from him since she was a child. If there was no trouble at home, she would not have sold herself as a maid.
She asked Madoka to wait behind the rockery early, just to push the stone down. She saved the hero and won the prince's love. This time it was not a loss.
A little injury is worth a lot in exchange for the sincerity of the future ruler of the world and her status in the future.
Moreover, she had asked Madoka to knock a lot of purple bruises on her body with a stone in advance, just to make the injuries seen by His Highness the Crown Prince more serious and tragic, so as to touch his heart even more.
That's why she strongly refused to let the imperial doctor look at her back. The imperial doctor was highly skilled in medicine, so this little injury could definitely tell the time.
Although Ning Chen had been on the battlefield, all he could do was to roughly bandage the injuries, and he could not accurately tell the time. Moreover, she deliberately asked the man to clearly see the injuries behind her little by little, and recounted them to her. The imperial physician listened so that he could remember more clearly.
Remember what she paid for him.
——
The foreshadowing is in Chapter 11, when Tang Yu delivers food to Ning Chen and only Xiao Tao is followed. At that time, Xiao Yuan was waiting behind the rockery in advance.
See you tomorrow, kids!
