Quick Wear: The Female Supporting Character's Counterattack

Chapter 230: Prince 2 is in trouble

Duke Zheng has already begun planning for the second prince outside the palace.

The Second Prince now has followers in the court.

They were waiting for the right time and were preparing to submit a memorial to Chang Liu requesting that the second prince be named crown prince.

Concubine Zheng looked at the Second Prince not far away and had already begun to imagine the scene of herself becoming the empress dowager.

Sometimes accidents happen in an instant.

The last second, Concubine Zheng was still feeling smug.

The next second her face suddenly changed and she stood up.

The foal seemed to be going crazy.

It kicked its hooves wildly and threw the second prince to the ground.

The second prince fell to the ground, holding his legs and groaning in pain.

Concubine Zheng lifted her skirt and rushed over in a hurry.

"Quickly call the imperial physician, and go get His Majesty!"

The mad pony was running around recklessly, and the guards nearby stepped forward to subdue it.

Concubine Zheng called out, "Yu'er!"

The palace maids and eunuchs knelt beside her, and Concubine Zheng held her hands in the air, not daring to let them fall.

Her expression was filled with fear, fearing that she would accidentally cause secondary harm to the Second Prince.

But the second prince not only had a deep wound on his face, but his legs were also trampled by horse hooves.

The little face was pale and colorless, and he was calling for his mother weakly and painfully.

Concubine Zheng was so anxious that tears fell down.

"Hold on, Yu'er. The doctor will be here soon."

By the time Chang Liu got the news, the second prince had already been moved back to Ziming Palace.

The second prince had fallen into a deep sleep, and the wound on his face had been treated.

Concubine Zheng stood by the bed in a daze.

The second prince was disfigured and will have a scar on his face for the rest of his life.

More importantly, one of his legs was seriously injured and will definitely leave sequelae in the future.

It means he will become crippled.

The dynasty stipulates that the crown prince cannot have any physical disabilities or facial blemishes.

The second prince has absolutely no chance of becoming emperor.

"The Emperor and Empress have arrived."

When Concubine Zheng heard that Chang Liu and Queen Wang were coming, she came to her senses. She hurriedly stood up and went forward to greet them.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty."

Queen Wang stepped forward to help Concubine Zheng up and said, "Okay, no need for so much formality. How is the Second Prince?"

Just now in Kunning Palace, Queen Wang happily drank a big bowl of Tremella soup because the Second Prince was in trouble.

Now, facing Concubine Zheng, she looked worried.

"Your Majesty and I heard that something happened to the Second Prince. What did the imperial physician say?"

Chang Liu on the side didn't say anything, perhaps he hadn't recovered from the shock of the Second Prince's accident.

Concubine Zheng was crying sadly.

"The imperial physician said that the wound on the second prince's face will leave a scar in the future. Even one of the second prince's legs..."

She couldn't help crying out loud, "Because the injury is too severe, I'm afraid there will be sequelae in the future."

The second prince was Concubine Zheng’s only hope, and now her hopes were shattered.

At that time, Concubine Zheng became Chang Liu's concubine.

The purpose is to give the Duke Zheng's Mansion a chance to move to a higher level.

But now all efforts have been in vain.

Queen Wang pretended to comfort her.

"Don't worry, Concubine Xian. As long as the Second Prince is safe, that's all that matters."

They all came from aristocratic families, and Queen Wang was well aware of Concubine Zheng's lofty ambitions.

Now that the Second Prince is a disabled person, what’s the difference between that and being dead?

It is also a discarded chess piece.

"Look at the Second Prince."

The emperor and empress entered the inner room together. The second prince looked pale and covered in cold sweat.

What happened today made him sleep uneasily.

Seeing the Second Prince looking so weak, Queen Wang felt a trace of distress in her eyes.

She stepped forward and wiped the cold sweat off the Second Prince with a handkerchief.

"Poor kid, how old are you, why do you have to practice horse riding and archery?"

"Although the pony is not very tall, it is still wild."

On the surface, Queen Wang seems to be feeling sorry for the Second Prince.

But Queen Wang's purpose was to stir up Chang Liu's dissatisfaction with Concubine Zheng.

Just now on the way to Ziming Palace, Queen Wang applied a lot of eye drops to Concubine Zheng.

It implies that if Concubine Zheng had not forced her child to make progress, the Second Prince would not have suffered.

As expected, Chang Liu became furious. He raised his hand and grabbed Concubine Zheng's wrist.

"Why do you want Yu'er to practice horse riding and archery?"

Concubine Zheng had tears in her eyes, even though her wrist was hurting.

But she did not dare to struggle, because she was more afraid of Chang Liu's anger.

"Your Majesty, I did not force the Second Prince to ride and shoot..."

"No?"

Seeing Concubine Zheng trying to excuse herself, Chang Liu felt like his lungs were about to explode.

"It's been widely rumored in the palace that the Second Prince has risked his life many times for riding and shooting, but you, as a mother, are actually indifferent."

"I sent someone to tell you not to push the child too hard, but did you listen to me?"

Ever since Chang Liu ascended the throne, his children have died one after another.

Sometimes Chang Liu feels very tired.

When will the women in this palace be able to quiet down?

He ascended the throne step by step, and when he was young he often witnessed the struggles in the palace.

He himself had also experienced the struggle for the crown prince.

Chang Liu let go of his hand with some disappointment.

Concubine Zheng knelt on the ground and cried, "Your Majesty, I really didn't expect this result..."

"Father."

I don’t know when the second prince woke up, he must have been woken up by Concubine Zheng’s crying.

His voice was still weak. The excruciating pain from a broken leg was too much for a child to bear.

But the second prince said very sensibly, "Father, please don't blame mother. It was I who wanted to practice riding and archery myself."

When Concubine Zheng saw her son defending herself, she got up and went forward to hug the Second Prince.

The mother and son hugged each other and cried, which was really tear-jerking.

Queen Wang felt a little regretful if the second prince didn't wake up.

Maybe Concubine Zheng would be demoted and punished by the furious Chang Liu just like Concubine Li.

What a pity.

At this time, the second prince continued to plead for Concubine Zheng.

"Father, this is all my own fault. Please don't blame Mother. I beg you."

He had been raised by Concubine Zheng herself since he was young, so naturally he couldn't bear to see Concubine Zheng being punished.

Among the four princes, the second prince is intelligent, sensible, and has the gentlest temperament.

Seeing the Second Prince defending Concubine Zheng, Chang Liu finally took the Second Prince's feelings into consideration.

"Forget it, Concubine Xian, take good care of the Second Prince. I will let you go for now because the Second Prince pleaded for you."

Queen Wang was somewhat unwilling, but she knew that Chang Liu had given up.

If I say more, it will only turn out to be a slip of the tongue.

She said indifferently, "The Second Prince is such a good boy. Sister Xianfei is so lucky."

Compared with the fake respectful Concubine Zheng, Queen Wang hated the truly unbridled Concubine Li more.

The second prince had already been crippled, so she had no intention of pursuing the victory.

Wait for Queen Wang and Chang Liu to leave together.

Concubine Zheng repeated it while holding the Second Prince.

"Yu'er, it was your mother who let you down, don't blame her..."

"I will not blame you, mother."

Inside Guanju Palace.

Xianxian was eating an orange leisurely, obviously in a very good mood.

The two most competitive princes, one dead and one disabled, how could she not be happy?

"Your Majesty, your Majesty is here."

Fu Liu put away the orange in front of him and placed the Buddhist scripture in front of Xianxian.

From such smooth movements, it can be imagined that the master and servant are habitual offenders.

When Chang Liu came in, he happened to see Xianxian clasping her hands together and chanting scriptures and praying for blessings.

It turns out that I am kind-hearted.

He walked forward and sat beside Xianxian, leaning gently on her shoulders and putting his arms around her waist.

"Zhizhi, I'm so tired."
