Chapter 529 Qiuxiang is covered with wounds
Prince Fu's Mansion.
Exhausted from vomiting, Prince Fu leaned back in his chair.
"What else did she say? Couldn't you just finish it all at once?"
He asked Manager Chen weakly.
"Other than that...she said she didn't know anything."
Manager Chen answered with fear and trepidation.
"She is that woman's confidant. She must have something else to say. Keep fighting..."
Prince Fu ordered with gritted teeth.
"But... Your Majesty, Qiuxiang doesn't look well..."
Manager Chen touched the sweat on his forehead and spoke hesitantly.
"She helped her master do so many evil things. Even if she was beaten to death, what would it matter?"
Xiao Anzi shouted at Manager Chen.
This Manager Chen is still too soft-hearted.
I have never seen that the prince has suffered such great harm both physically and mentally.
If he doesn't vent his anger on Qiuxiang first, does he want to make him die of frustration?
"My subordinate understands."
Manager Chen bowed quickly and went back to make arrangements.
Not to mention Qiuxiang’s current life which is worse than death, let’s talk about the Crown Prince’s Concubine.
She had already collapsed when little Prince Fu walked out of the yard.
It was obvious that Qiuxiang was taken away by the people brought by the prince.
Without her cries, the yard suddenly became deathly silent.
"Mammy, is that you? Is it you who tipped them off?"
The Crown Prince's Consort stared at Nanny Ji and asked viciously.
That look, like that of a vicious wolf, made Madam Ji shudder.
"Princess, I have never left this room. Who could I have informed of this?"
Nanny Ji certainly couldn't admit it now, but she was not afraid that the Crown Prince's wife would hate her.
Even if the Crown Prince's wife hated her, she couldn't do anything to her in her current state.
Besides, she had already wished for her own life.
Nanny Ji has lived most of her life, and what she cares about most is her face.
She was afraid that her betrayal of the Crown Prince's Consort would get out and she would be branded as a traitor.
Although her actions today can be said to have saved the prince and the queen in the palace.
Going further back, she also saved the entire Prince Fu's Mansion.
Because if the news that the queen in the palace had an affair with the prince got out.
I believe that even if the emperor doesn't mind on the surface, it's hard to say how he feels inside.
Don’t people always say that the heart of a king is hard to predict?
Seeing that Nanny Ji refused to admit it, the Crown Princess couldn't do anything to her no matter how much she hated her.
She needs to be served all the time now.
But now she didn't know whether the people from before were still in her courtyard except Nanny Ji.
"Go out and see if those people are still there?"
The Crown Prince's Consort suppressed her anger and gave orders to Nanny Ji in a bad mood.
Nanny Ji agreed and walked out slowly.
The yard was quiet and no one was there.
Only on the long bench placed in the middle of the yard, there were a few flies flying around.
Because there were spots of blood on the stool, including on the ground underneath.
Looking at the long bench, Nanny Ji seemed to have aged several years in an instant.
She stood silently in the corridor for a while before hobbling away to see if there was anyone else.
Fortunately, everyone in the main courtyard is still there.
When Qiuxiang was being tortured just now, Xiao Anzi gathered them all together and asked them to watch.
They all knew in their hearts that the prince was killing the chicken to scare the monkeys.
This is a warning to these people. If they dare to betray the prince and Prince Fu’s mansion in the future...
Qiuxiang's fate is the same as the fate of all of them.
So now these people are hiding in a room and shivering.
"You guys go out and clean up the yard... everything is fine now..."
Nanny Ji looked at these frightened people and spoke gently.
"Mammy, I'm so scared... What did Sister Qiuxiang do wrong?"
A little maid who was in charge of cleaning the courtyard looked at Nanny Ji and burst into tears.
"As long as you behave yourself from now on, no one will do anything to you."
After saying these words, Nanny Ji turned around.
She did not go to the deceased princess' bedroom, but walked out of the main courtyard.
The security guard outside the door did not stop her.
Because Steward Chen had explained that among the people in the main courtyard, only Nanny Ji was allowed to enter and leave freely.
Nanny Ji asked around and found Manager Chen and the place where Qiuxiang was tortured.
This is a basement.
This underground torture chamber existed in the former royal palace, but it has not been used since it was converted into Prince Fu's Palace.
Qiuxiang was also the first person to be tortured here.
Looking at Qiuxiang, whose hands were chained and covered in blood.
Nanny Ji couldn't help but choke up with sobs.
Hearing Nanny Ji's crying, Qiuxiang woke up from her semi-coma.
"Mammy...save me...save me"
Qiuxiang's voice was so hoarse that it was almost inaudible.
It can be seen what kind of torture she suffered in this torture room.
She raised her head and looked at Aunt Ji pleadingly.
She regrets it now, very, very much.
She shouldn't have believed the Crown Prince's wife's promise and coveted the man who looked like a banished immortal.
She should listen to the nanny. After all, the nanny has protected her for so many years, just like she was her own child.
Mammy won't hurt her.
But from the first moment I saw the prince, I had feelings that I shouldn't have had.
And her eyes betrayed her.
She was discovered by the Crown Princess...
So she was threatened by the Crown Princess to help her buy those shameful incense.
The Crown Prince's Consort took advantage of her desire for the Crown Prince and promised that she could serve him in the future.
Her current fate is all due to her own greed, she can't blame anyone else.
"Qiu Xiang...does it hurt?"
Nanny Ji burst into tears.
She gently stroked Qiuxiang's face with trembling hands and asked in a choked voice.
"Mommy..."
Seeing Nanny Ji so sad, Qiuxiang felt a rare sense of guilt towards her.
"I didn't listen to Nanny. The Crown Prince's Consort promised... promised to let me serve the Crown Prince..."
Qiuxiang perked up and looked at Nanny Ji.
"Mammy, can you please ask the prince for me... I will never dare to do it again..."
Nanny Ji shook her head.
"Qiu Xiang, you are so confused... Even the Crown Prince's Consort... the Crown Prince doesn't like her, so how can he like you?"
Qiuxiang helped the Crown Prince's Consort to do this, which was clearly pushing Prince Fu's Mansion into a dead end.
Not only her, but even the Crown Prince's Consort will not be able to survive.
It seems that Qiuxiang has the courage to do it, but in fact she doesn't have the courage to bear the consequences.
"I advised you at the beginning, and you agreed to it. Why did you lie to me like that? If you had told me about it at the time, this wouldn't have happened..."
Qiuxiang was extremely regretful at this time, but it was too late to say anything now.
"Mammy, where have you been? Why did you take so long?"
When the Crown Princess saw Nanny Ji coming back, she became furious.
She had been waiting just now, waiting for Nanny Ji to come in and serve her. She hadn't had lunch yet.
As a result, she waited for so long.
Could it be that this old guy went to the deceased prince to curry favor with him?
"I...I just went to see Qiuxiang's child..."
