Chapter 240 The concubine of the Prime Minister’s Palace VS His Royal Highness the Crown Prince (29)
Grandma Chen was already in despair, and regarded serving Tang Wanrou, who had been loyal since childhood, as her final salvation.
But these words completely threw Grandma Chen into the abyss.
She did not go to Tang Wanrou for help. She could neither ask questions nor do anything to Tang Wanrou.
Therefore, when Nanny Chen left, she did not hear what Tang Wanrou said next.
In the room, Tang Wanrou finished her words for a moment and finished writing the last word about the arrangement of the flower viewing banquet. After putting down the jade brush, she turned her sour wrist.
Sighed.
"Even so, Grandma Chen has not been able to take care of her only son because she has served me since she was a child. Although her son is ineffective, I will never leave him alone. Now the specific arrangements for the flower viewing banquet are not The palace has been laid out and we don’t need that many manpower, so just send them all out to find people for Grandma Chen.”
Xiaoting's eyes lit up.
"It's so kind of you, Crown Princess. I will go and tell Nanny Chen now. She will definitely be happy when she knows the news."
Tang Wanrou smiled, "You don't have to say it specifically. Aunt Chen and I are of the same mind, so why bother saying this? It's so weird."
Xiaoting thought for a while, and it seemed that this was the case, otherwise it would be like deliberately reminding and then repaying the favor.
Anyway, it’s not too late to tell the news when we find the person.
When the time comes for a double surprise, Grandma Chen will definitely feel even more grateful for the Crown Princess's kindness.
——
Xiao Yuan followed Tang Yu's order and deliberately avoided the late watch and several groups of patrolling soldiers, and came to Xingyue Palace.
It took no effort at all. Grandma Chen knelt under the tree, clasped her hands together, and prayed devoutly to the gods and Buddhas in the sky.
Xiao Yuan gradually approached, and Nanny Chen immediately opened her eyes.
Even after experiencing such a major change, Grandma Chen's vigilance and dignity in facing outsiders are still there, just like this backbone that supports her face, she will not bend even if she dies.
Grandma Chen turned her head and saw Xiao Yuan, her face suddenly changed, her mean and old-looking eyes gleamed, and her tone was wary, "The maid next to Tang Yu? How did you avoid the guards and come to Xingyue Palace?" ”
The prince's residence is allowed to have guards patrolling with His Majesty's permission, so this little maid can avoid so many people, which shows her skill.
Aunt Chen's eyes suddenly widened. She suddenly thought of the incident where Yu Liangyuan saved His Highness some time ago.
After that incident, His Highness not only promoted Tang Yu's position, but even reprimanded the Crown Princess.
You must know that His Highness and the Crown Princess have been married for many years and have never blushed. His Highness also respects the Crown Princess, but it happened that the Crown Princess abused Tang Yu again and was reprimanded by His Highness.
Although His Highness said it was because the Crown Princess once gave the concubine the medicine to kill his heir, she knew it was not the case.
The Crown Princess had started giving the concubine the medicine to eliminate the heir very early, but the Crown Prince had never paid any attention to it, so the Crown Princess became more and more unscrupulous.
But this time, he abused Tang Yu with his front foot, and was reprimanded by the prince on his back foot.
If he said that these two things had nothing to do with each other, she would not believe it.
Xiao Yuan smiled cutely, squatted down slightly, and looked at Nanny Chen with pity in her eyes.
"You have lost your own son, why are you so proud to show it to someone? Why don't you fight for your reputation? Is your reputation more important than your son's life?" Aunt Chen was originally quite afraid of Xiao Yuan, and even thought that she should not Tell the Crown Princess some of the truth hidden by Tang Yu.
But now I heard Madoka mention her son.
The hard armor on Grandma Chen's body seemed to become fragile all of a sudden, and could be broken with a poke.
"What are you doing here? Did that little bitch Tang Yu ask you to come? Let you watch my jokes? Is she extremely happy that I have reduced myself to what I am today?"
Madoka narrowed her eyes, and there was no trace of smile in her eyes.
"I don't want to do anything here. My master told me to see that Grandma Chen is in trouble and has no one to help her, so my master will give you a gift that will surprise you and make you calm down to talk. ”
Grandma Chen didn't know what kind of medicine Tang Yu was selling in this gourd. Her own things were all gifts from the Tang family, and she didn't have any silver in her hand.
He could only look at Madoka warily.
Madoka looked calm throughout the whole process. She opened the wooden box and found another finger wrapped on it. Anyone familiar with it could identify who this finger was.
Grandma Chen's body stiffened instantly, her eyes widened, and her face was full of disbelief.
His eyes were red and bloodshot as he stared at a finger in the small wooden box.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Grandma Chen pointed at Xiao Yuan with trembling old wrinkled hands. Just when she was about to say harsh words, Xiao Yuan interrupted in time.
"Mother Chen, it's better to think twice before you say anything. Don't say irrevocable words out of anger. Your son's life is better served by words of virtue. And haven't you seen it too?"
"You are so loyal to Tang Wanrou, but in the end, how did she treat you? Send out those three melons, let alone find a living person, even if the person is in front of you, you may not be able to see it. It can be seen that you are so After many years of loyalty, it was finally a mistake.”
"It's better to abandon the darkness and turn to the light. Not only can you save your son's life, but you can also join the bright side and have a bright future. Why not?"
Xiao Yuan used the same condescending attitude that Nanny Chen treated them now. She stood there and looked at Nanny Chen who was kneeling on the ground in a miserable state, feeling very happy.
Aunt Chen couldn't answer for a while, but her shoulders were shaking. She was obviously frightened or maybe Xiao Yuan had hit her mind.
Madoka scoffed.
"Weren't you just unwilling to be loyal to Tang Wanrou in the future? Otherwise, you would have told Tang Wanrou about receiving the finger today, but you didn't. You must have heard something, right?"
Madoka is induced step by step.
Because of what happened to her son, Grandma Chen was not as loyal to Tang Wanrou as she once was, and she even had thoughts of regret.
Madoka's words came at just the right time for her to find a step for herself.
"Then what does Liangdi want me to do to let my son go? I haven't been with him since he was a child, but I gave him all the monthly silver and the fine gold and silver from last time. He can't bear the fine clothes and food." It’s such a pain, and I even had two fingers cut off! I will never say a word about Liang Di’s orders!”
As she spoke, Grandma Chen knelt down and kowtowed. As soon as she knelt on the ground, her forehead turned purple.
Xiao Yuan was satisfied with Grandma Chen's knowledge and took out a paper bag from her sleeve.
"Put this thing into the jade pendant that Ning Liangyuan gave to the Crown Princess."
Grandma Chen took it with trembling hands, "Isn't this poison that seals the throat at the sight of blood? The old slave can go and let go, but will Yu Liangyuan really let go of the newborn? He doesn't know anything. If Yu Liangyuan If you want revenge, just take revenge on the old slave, it has nothing to do with him..."
Madoka was impatient, "Why are you talking so much nonsense? As long as you obey me, your son will be fine. If you dare to tell the truth..., then your son's life will be..." At the end of the sentence, Madoka's voice was threatening.
