Chapter 462: Your Highness is disobeying the order
Wei Ling pondered for a moment, then shook his head.
"Chen Xinghe is different from the eldest princess. The eldest princess is unreasonable and will vent her anger on everyone if she doesn't get what she wants. But Chen Xinghe has brains. If even the imperial physician says it's difficult and that the Miaoshou Pavilion can't save them, he'll accept it in his heart!" Wei Ling said. "Even if they can't save those two people, he won't vent his anger on the Miaoshou Pavilion. Madam, this deal is a win-win situation."
"That's good." Su Jixiang didn't know much about these people in the capital, so he couldn't make such an accurate judgment as Wei Ling.
Seeing Wei Ling say this, she felt relieved. "Then I'll go talk to Mr. Zhou and tell him to just give it a try."
"That's indeed possible." Wei Ling nodded.
"It's just that Qin Wanfang was beaten so badly that it would be difficult to save him. But the probability of the child being rescued is still very high." Su Jixiang said.
"Just let Zhou Ziqi do it." Wei Ling said with a smile, "Even if it fails, Chen Xinghe won't be able to say anything. After all, the imperial physician has already said that it is difficult to save him."
The couple was talking in Zhou Ziqi's study, but the lobby outside was in chaos.
Originally, family members were not allowed to enter the clinic, but Chen Xinghe was really worried.
He knew in his heart that the two imperial doctors were delayed for a long time because of the eldest princess.
Although they were from the Imperial Hospital, they had been kept outside for such a long time, and there was no guarantee what the Princess's people would say to the two doctors. If they were not dedicated to saving the patient, or if they did something wrong in the process, how could that be a disaster?
So Chen Xinghe insisted on watching from the side.
The princess naturally got angry again about this, but Chen Xinghe no longer wanted to argue with her. Instead, he just watched her throw a tantrum quietly and coldly. When the guards stopped Chen Xinghe and refused to let him leave the hall, Chen Xinghe just said to the princess, "If you want to kill me, then do it. I won't listen to any other nonsense." After that, he ignored the guards' swords and rushed forward.
How could the guards of the Princess's Mansion really dare to hurt the Princess's husband? Seeing Chen Xinghe rushing towards them, they were so scared that they quickly withdrew their weapons and could only look at the Princess for help. It was not that they didn't try their best to stop him, but they really couldn't!
"You are going to go against me to this extent just for them?" The eldest princess looked at her husband with deep sorrow.
"I can even give up my own life. What do you think?" Chen Xinghe said lightly.
The more critical the situation of Qin Wanfang and the child became, the more Chen Xinghe felt like he was going to give up.
For so many years, he had been submissive and had been treated like a slave. He was tired of it! It wasn't that he loved Qin Wanfang and the child so much that he didn't care about his own life, but he hated the eldest princess so much that he would do anything to make her unhappy!
Seeing Chen Xinghe walking towards the clinic step by step, the eldest princess' lips trembled for a long time, and she couldn't utter a word to stop him.
When Chen Xinghe's figure disappeared into the inner door of the clinic, the eldest princess finally couldn't help but burst into tears.
"I have been devoted to him for so many years and even gave birth to children for him, but now he is willing to die for a concubine's daughter!" The eldest princess cried without caring about her image and fell into the arms of the wife of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery.
At the same time, a group of people came to the door of Miaoshou Pavilion. They were dressed in the uniforms of the imperial guards and surrounded a light sedan chair. The sedan chair and the people stopped in front of the door of Miaoshou Pavilion. Then a woman in palace dress got out of the sedan chair. The woman was about 40 years old, and judging by her dress, she was the head aunt of the palace.
"The eldest princess is in there?" asked the aunt in charge after getting off the sedan chair.
"Yes." The imperial guard came over and replied. The aunt in charge straightened her dress and then walked in.
"Convey the Empress's decree and summon the Princess to the palace for an audience!" A royal guard pushed away the guards from the Princess's mansion who were blocking the door and said loudly.
As soon as the head aunt entered the lobby of the Miaoshou Pavilion, she saw the eldest princess sitting on the ground in a very ungraceful manner, with her hair disheveled, and she was hugging the wife of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery, who looked at her at a loss, and crying loudly.
The aunt in charge immediately frowned. How could the royal princess disregard her dignity and image in public?
But after all, she was just the head aunt of the Queen and had no right to comment on the eldest princess. She stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, the Queen ordered me to come and welcome Your Highness into the palace." She spoke softly to the eldest princess who was still crying bitterly.
The eldest princess raised her eyes with red eyes and recognized that the person standing in front of her was Aunt Cheng beside the Queen. She paused crying, then sobbed, "I will go to the Queen, but I have something important to do now and can't leave." She wanted to stay here and watch that little bitch and that little beast die!
"Your Highness! The Queen has issued an imperial decree. Your Highness must follow me into the palace this time." It must be said that the Queen understood her sister-in-law well. She knew that ordinary people could not invite her, so she asked the head aunt beside her to come in person. If she did not even give face to the head aunt, then she would not give face to her as the Queen. Even if His Majesty had something to say about her in the future, she would still have something to say.
To be honest, the Queen was in a good mood today, but when the wife of Duke Cheng'en came with a group of ladies to ask for an audience and explained the whole story, the Queen's good mood disappeared!
What is this?
Even if the prince consort had a mistress, you, as a princess, could have taken her away secretly and dealt with her quietly. How could you have brought a group of ladies to cause trouble like you did today, and caused an uproar in the whole city? Are you taking off the royal dignity and throwing it on the ground?
What does this look like!
Besides, she was just a concubine. If they kidnapped her secretly, whether she was sent away or killed, the matter could be covered up as long as not many people knew about it and no one complained. But they came to her house so blatantly. Did they really think the laws of the Daxie Dynasty were just for show?
The Empress Dowager's birthday is just around the corner, and it's less than two months away. Officials from all over the country who come to celebrate her birthday have already arrived in the capital. With so many people and so many eyes watching, causing such an embarrassing incident at this time, do you think that the royal secret has not been spread far enough?
"It's not that I won't go into the palace! I'll go later!" The eldest princess was also annoyed. She didn't care about crying anymore and said to Aunt Cheng in a cold voice, "Aunt Cheng is also an old person around the Queen. How come you don't understand what I say?"
"Your Highness! The Empress's decree!" Aunt Cheng wasn't one to be intimidated. She worked for the Empress, so she didn't have to worry about the Princess saying anything bad about her in the future. So she straightened her tone and said, "The Empress's decree says that Your Highness must accompany me into the palace immediately. If Your Highness still hesitates, it means you're ignoring the Empress's decree. This is disobeying the Empress's decree!"
