Quick Wear: The Bad Girl is Reborn and No Longer Confused

Chapter 229 No Longer Helping in the Fight for the 5th Princess 5

Qiu Guo followed quietly behind, taking everything in. He was too far away to hear what was said, but he knew Xia He must have done something wrong.

She has a problem where she always subconsciously clasps her hands when she feels guilty.

"How about it?"

"Princess, Xia He came into contact with a palace maid who was sweeping the floor. I didn't hear what she said specifically."

Xu Tao nodded, stroking his chin in thought. Once everything was ready, he led his men out of the palace and walked to the Imperial Garden, where he ran into the Third Prince and the Ninth Princess.

"Fifth sister, I don't know where you're going. Ninth sister is clamoring to go boating on the lake today. Fifth sister, do you want to go with us?"

"Okay."

Xu Tao agreed with a smile. She wanted to see what the other party was up to.

"Fifth sister, I apologize to you for what happened last time. It was Ninth sister who was ignorant. Ninth sister saw that the other sisters had jewelry and headgear, and she envied them. Knowing that Fifth sister treated her best, she shamelessly borrowed some..."

"Third brother, do you dislike Concubine Yuan's inability to buy things for Ninth Sister, or do you think that Father and Mother's rewards are not generous enough?"

The Third Prince still wore a gentle smile, and after a moment's pause, he spoke before his sister could finish her words, "Fifth Sister, you're mistaken. Father and Mother have been so kind to us. To have such a rebellious thought is unworthy of a son. I would never entertain such a rebellious thought. I blame myself for not paying attention to Ninth Sister's thoughts. It's my incompetence as an Imperial brother."

......

"Oh."

For the rest of the journey, no matter what the brother and sister said, Xu Tao answered with just one word, which made the impatient Ninth Princess so angry that she was fuming. However, she was being held back by her brother and could not do anything.

The third prince, who always concealed his true feelings well, couldn't help but feel annoyed when faced with someone who refused to listen to him.

Xu Tao looked very happy. If she had made the wrong bet, she couldn't blame anyone else, but her third brother was very vicious.

Not only did he pull her in, but in order to further consolidate their relationship, he used despicable means on the girl from the Wen family. The legitimate daughter was only worthy of being his concubine.

He was able to make it to the final round, but he relied on the power of many innocent women's families. If they were willing, it would be fine, but most of them were taken advantage of by him.

When she got on the boat, the Ninth Princess felt more and more uncomfortable. Looking at the rippling lake, her hands were eager to move.

Xu Tao, of course, sensed the malice surrounding her. With a slight curl of her lips, she rocked the boat before the other party could reach out their hands, pulling the two of them into the water together, shouting, "Ninth sister, why did you push me? Help... Help!"

When they arrived at the lake, the two princesses who could not swim flailed around randomly. The third prince, who could swim, was hit by someone and felt a pain in his neck, and his consciousness gradually became blurred.

Seeing someone jump into the lake, Xu Tao pulled the person down. First, he crippled the third leg of the person who was the source of his evil, and then pinched the instigator several times.

I had thought of killing her too, but it was unusual for her to be the only one intact after three people fell into the water, so I could only pinch her a few times to vent my anger. Feeling the waves on the lake, I let myself drink enough water and passed out.

"An Ning, An Ning, wake up, don't scare your mother."

Wen Yurui received the news and rushed over immediately. Seeing her daughter soaking wet and pale, she burst into tears. After the imperial physician diagnosed her, the patient still hadn't woken up. An hour later, she was extremely anxious.

"Ahhh!"

"Son, you finally woke up. You scared me to death."

When Concubine Yuan saw her son wake up, she was so happy that she hurried over to touch him, but he pushed her away. Her hand hit the bed frame and became red and swollen instantly.

"Son, are you feeling unwell? Doctor Wang, please come here quickly."

Doctor Wang had been guarding outside the door. He hurried in when he heard the summons. When he reached out to take the Third Prince's pulse, he stumbled and saw that his veins were bulging, his hands were covering his lower body, and he was curled up in one place, groaning continuously.

"Son, tell me what happened and why you feel so uncomfortable."

Concubine Yuan was extremely anxious. She was completely focused on her son and didn't care about the life or death of her daughter in the next room.

The Third Prince struggled for a while, gritting his teeth and holding back, a strange smile forming at the corner of his mouth. "Mother, I'm fine. Was Imperial Physician Wang the only one who treated me just now?"

Concubine Yuan didn't know the purpose of the question and nodded obediently.

Seeing this, the Third Prince felt relieved. "Doctor Wang, have you found anything wrong with my treatment?"

Doctor Wang's heart skipped a beat, knowing that the Third Prince was aware of his condition. He feigned composure and said, "The Third Prince is in good health and is fine. I will prescribe some medicine. He will recover after a few days of rest."

"is it?"

Doctor Wang felt as if he was being stared at by a poisonous snake, and his hands tucked into his sleeves trembled slightly.

"The Emperor has arrived."

Hearing this heavenly sound, I was so excited that I almost cried, but the next moment I felt like I fell into an ice cave, staring in disbelief.

It's impossible, how could anyone discover such a secret.

"Doctor Wang, you must know what to say and what not to say, otherwise if this prince says something that affects Doctor Wang's nine clans, it will be bad."

The third prince was glad that he had investigated every imperial physician in advance in order to find a breakthrough in the Imperial Medical Bureau. He finally found a handle that came in handy.

Emperor Xuan Jin's father-daughter relationship with An Ning had grown stronger over the past few days. When he heard that someone had fallen into the water, he rushed over. Seeing someone lying on the bed, dying, he was furious. "What are you doing? Why hasn't my An Ning woken up yet?"

"Your Majesty, Princess An Ning was frightened. I, your humble servant..."

Doctor Zhou complained bitterly, saying that normally the patient should have woken up.

If she fainted any further, the imperial physician would be in trouble. Xu Tao woke up at the right time and saw her mother's red and swollen eyes. She felt guilty and said, "Mother, I..."

"An Ning, my An Ning has finally woken up." Wen Yurui held her daughter in her arms, as if she had found a lost treasure.

Xu Tao snuggled in her mother's arms, gently patting her back.

Witnessing this heartwarming scene, Emperor Xuan Jin joined in and hugged the two of them.

In the other room, the mother and son waited and waited but did not see the emperor, and their faces were frighteningly gloomy.

"That bitch will definitely complain to your father first. We need to come up with a strategy."

"What strategy do you want?"

"Of course...I greet the Emperor."

Concubine Yuan knelt on the ground, lowered her head and did not dare to look at the other person's face.

"Father, please punish me. It's my fault for not keeping an eye on my two sisters."

"Hmm? Ze'er, tell me what happened."

Xu Ze pondered secretly, enduring the pain in his lower body as he quickly calculated and chose the safest strategy. "Father, I only remember the boat shaking, and then my two sisters and I fell into the water. I can swim, but I don't know what hit me and I fainted. When I woke up again, I found myself here."
