Chapter 292 Everyone has their own agenda
The captain of the guards knew that Fang Liangdi, who had fallen into the valley, was in great danger.
Looking up, I saw Fang Liangdi's maid Mu Mian and the eunuch driving the carriage, ignoring the advice and running down the mountain crying.
Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he bowed again and replied,
"I failed in my duty, Crown Princess. Fang Liangdi's horse got scared and she and her carriage fell off the cliff. I have sent people to rescue them. Please don't panic, my masters."
"What? Are you talking about Fang Liangdi? She-she fell off the cliff?"
The Crown Princess seemed to have just realized something, and she was so shocked that she stepped back repeatedly, her eyes reddened and she couldn't believe it was true. She murmured,
"How could this happen? How could this happen?"
*
Concubine Zhang, who was standing by, turned even paler when she heard this. Tears started to flow down her cheeks as she sobbed.
"No! Impossible! I don't believe it's true! We left the house together this morning? Everything was fine! Everything was fine!"
Her crying brought about low sobs from people around her.
Xia He, the Crown Princess's maid, said in a trembling voice with tears in her eyes,
"It's true. Crown Princess, please get in the carriage quickly! Fang Liangdi really fell off the cliff. I saw the carriage fall with my own eyes. Woo woo woo..., it's so scary."
"No, you must have seen it wrong. I don't believe it."
The Crown Princess grabbed Xia He's hand, heartbroken.
After a moment, she raised her red eyes and said sternly to the chief guard,
"You must rescue the people, or I will bring my head to you."
The chief guard bowed with guilt.
"Yes. Masters, please get in the car."
After saying this, he repeatedly reminded the remaining guards,
"You all must protect the Crown Princess, Concubine Zhang, and others."
"Yes, Captain of the Guards."
After receiving the response, the captain of the guards did not stop, but jumped onto the tall horse nimbly and hurried down the mountain along the mountain road.
*
At this time, Li Liangdi, Lu Liangyuan, and Qian Shiqie, who had already got off the carriage and stood still, were obviously shocked by this sudden accident.
Their hands and feet were cold, their faces were pale, and they collapsed on their maids in fear.
My eyes couldn't help but look down into the valley, which was like a black hole in the abyss. There was no way I could see the carriage that had fallen to the bottom of the valley.
After listening to what the captain of the guards said and watching him leave in a hurry, they were all still stunned.
*
The wind is cold and the snow is flying.
The scene was completely silent, and the atmosphere was eerie.
Suddenly Li Liangdi said in confusion,
"Fang... Fang Liangdi fell off the cliff? Me? Did I almost die too?"
Her maid trembled all over and stammered in response,
"Yeah, Liang~ Liang Di, we~we almost fell to death along with Fang Liang Di!
Wuwuwu... Fortunately, you and your servant did not sit in that car... Wuwuwu..."
The frightened palace maid cried out of breath.
Li Liangdi let out a cry, her eyes rolled back and she fainted.
"Liang Di, Li Liang Di, someone come! Help!"
Several guards hurriedly arranged Li Liangdi into the carriage.
*
Such a big noise seemed to have nothing to do with Lu Liangyuan. She stared at the steep cliff just in front of her with wide eyes, tears streaming down her face.
My heart was filled with turmoil. I couldn't believe that such a big accident could happen today. A living person was gone just like that?!
They all rushed down the mountain to rescue people. Rescue? Is there any chance of saving lives on such a steep cliff?
Her calves were shaking more and more and she became unsteady on her feet.
"Liangyuan, I will help you get in the carriage." Her maid said, wiping her tears. She helped her into the carriage.
Concubine Qian was still sobbing and covering her eyes.
"Why did such a good person die?"
No one responded to her anymore.
*
At this time, the Crown Princess concealed her fear and panic, and instructed the people getting on and off the carriage,
"All of you go back to your carriages and stay there. No one is allowed to come out and cause trouble."
"Yes, I obey your command."
The only one who answered her was Qian Shiqi.
After a while, several masters of the East Palace entered the carriage, each with their own thoughts.
Regardless of whether he was pretending to faint or not, they were not stupid and knew that Fang Qingge was in great danger. Although they felt sorry for Fang Qingge, they felt sorry for him.
But deep down, everyone still feels a little bit gloating.
From then on, the Eastern Palace no longer had Fang Qingge, a powerful opponent who had occupied the prince's entire body and heart.
Concubine Qian wiped away her tears and thought that one day soon, the prince would return to the palace. Would that be her chance? !
She lowered her head and covered her face with a handkerchief. In the eyes of the other two women, she was crying bitterly.
But only she herself knew that she was laughing secretly.
*
The Crown Princess and Concubine Zhang also returned to the warm carriage. They instructed their respective maids,
"Don't come in. Stay outside the carriage and report any news from the bottom of the valley in a timely manner. Xiao Quanzi, get off the car and look for Fang Liangdi. It will be helpful to have more people."
"Here."
The two older palace maids, who were shivering with cold, swallowed their saliva, responded with pale faces, and stood obediently in the wind and snow.
The eunuch Xiao Quanzi who was driving the carriage also jumped off the carriage to look for someone.
Wait until the carriage door is closed.
Concubine Zhang instantly changed her face.
"Princess, it's flawless."
"Well, this time it's your great contribution. Otherwise, we would have no chance to get rid of her.
By the way, will the guard who threw the darts really not be exposed?"
"No, don't worry, Princess! That guard was chosen by my father. He is very cautious. His original plan was to drug the horse, but he didn't expect the horse to be so tired that it wouldn't eat anything.
There was no other choice, so he took the second option, which shows that he is a smart man. "
"Well, not bad. This guy is quite smart. I'll reward him handsomely when I get back." The Crown Princess pursed her lips and smiled softly.
"It is my honor to relieve the Crown Princess's worries. Congratulations to the Crown Princess on having her wish come true. From now on, the two little cubs will be yours to raise."
Upon hearing this, the Crown Princess stopped smiling and said,
"Don't worry, I will keep my word. When we return to the East Palace, the inner courtyard will be managed by the two of us sisters.
From now on, the cousin prince will come to Zhaoling Palace often for the sake of the two little ones. Then, will you and I not benefit?!"
“Hehehe….”
The two smiled at each other, their eyes flashing with greed, and they were not afraid of killing someone.
*
At this time, the raging cold wind was whistling everywhere, the snow was falling heavier and heavier, and the gloomy and dark sky and earth soon turned into a vast expanse of white.
There has been no news coming up from the valley.
On a flat ground halfway up the mountain, two carriages were surrounded by guards and several shivering palace maids.
Waiting quietly, the carriage was dead silent.
If no one mentioned Fang Liangdi who fell off the cliff, it would be impossible to tell that an accident had just happened here.
