Chapter 601: The Foolish Woman Who Fakes Her Death for a Man (8)
"Hurry up and execute him!"
The third prince was held down and could not be saved, and he watched helplessly as his beloved was beaten to death.
When the guards let go of his hand, he suddenly stood up and walked up to King Zhongyi, his eyes full of hatred!
"You guys killed my child before he was even born, and now you're satisfied?!
I tell you, don’t think that if you kill Yang Liu, I will get along well with him!
I will never forgive such a petty person in my life!"
Seeing that his words were getting more and more outrageous, the emperor threw a bunch of teacups on his back!
"Asshole! It was my idea to beat that bitch to death. Are you going to hate me for the rest of your life too?!"
The third prince then realized his mistake and knelt before the emperor to apologize.
"Father, I dare not!"
"Don't dare? I think you dare very much!
Also, I have just issued an order to cancel your marriage, so you don't have to bother with Chang'an anymore!"
When the third prince heard the words "the marriage is cancelled", his mind instantly became clear!
Although he had a great chance of winning the throne, if he didn't have the Zhongyi Palace, then his journey would be at least half as difficult.
Or maybe the King of Loyalty would defect to another camp. Although the Second Prince was ill, he was not necessarily powerless to fight.
Although the Fourth Prince is young, if he has many people assisting him, he may not be without a chance.
He immediately looked regretful and kowtowed to the emperor.
"No, Father, you are deliberately trying to scare me, right?
I, your son, do not want to cancel the engagement. I beg your Majesty to revoke your decision!"
If someone didn't know this, they would think he had a lot of friendship with Shuangshuang, as if he was not the one who just yelled at the King of Loyalty and his wife.
When the emperor saw him like that, he slapped him hard in the face.
"Shut up!
You can change what you said in public if you want to.
If you are so reluctant to part with her, what have you been doing earlier?"
The third prince looked around frantically, but did not see Shuangshuang.
Quickly come to the front of King Zhongyi.
"Your Majesty, where is Shuangshuang?"
Prince Zhongyi looked at him resentfully, "Please respect yourself, Third Prince, and don't call my daughter by her maiden name."
The Third Prince saw the hatred in King Zhongyi's eyes and became even more flustered.
At this moment, he remembered that Shuangshuang and Yang Liu fell into the water together, but he did not save her.
Seeing everyone here, Shuangshuang couldn't possibly go back to the palace.
He rushed to the inner room quickly, but was stopped outside the door by Cuilan who stretched out her hand.
Cuilan's eyes were red from crying and her voice was hoarse.
"Third Prince, this is my daughter's boudoir. No man is allowed to enter without permission."
"I want to see Shuangshuang, please get out of my way!"
Cuilan grew up with her daughter and knew her daughter's feelings for the third prince.
It is precisely because of this that the Third Prince is most disgusted and disgusted with the fact that he repeatedly hurts his own daughter for a lowly maid!
Therefore, he ignored the Third Prince's shouting and just stubbornly and loyally protected his master!
The third prince couldn't bear it and shouted loudly inside in grief.
"Shuangshuang, I won't cancel the engagement! You will always be my fiancée!
Wait, I will definitely ask my father to revoke his order, and our wedding will still be held as scheduled."
Hearing the Third Prince's shameless words, Princess Zhongyi was furious.
"Third Prince, don't speak so nicely!
When you invited all the imperial doctors to treat your sweetheart, you never thought that Shuangshuang was your fiancée.
You never even considered that she herself was nearly on the verge of death and had been in poor health because of what you had done before.
Now that our family has broken off the engagement as you wished, you no longer have to think of dirty tricks to avoid my Shuang'er."
After saying this, he held his forehead and said to the loyal and righteous king dejectedly,
"Your Majesty, let's take Shuang'er back home.
I don't ask for anything else, I just want to be able to go quietly and not be disturbed by all the trivial matters in the world. That's enough."
King Zhongyi nodded sadly, "You are right."
He bowed to the emperor again.
"Your Majesty, we take our leave."
After saying that, he pushed the Third Prince away, went in, picked up the unconscious Shuangshuang along with the quilt, and strode out.
The third prince only had time to see Shuangshuang's pale face and closed eyes.
His heart was pounding, as if something important was about to leave him.
This was the emotion that Emperor Yang Liu did not have when he was beaten to death just now.
He looked at the crowd in the hall blankly, and then noticed Imperial Physician Chen in the hall.
She suddenly rushed to him and grabbed his arms tightly.
"Imperial Physician Chen, how is Princess Chang'an?"
Imperial Physician Chen sighed and looked at the mad Third Prince.
For a moment, I couldn’t figure out whether his actions were sincere or fake.
The Third Prince had no idea what Imperial Physician Chen was thinking, and he kept grabbing his arm and shaking it.
"Come on, tell me what happened to her?"
"Alas, Princess Chang'an's body was already seriously injured.
This time, I have exhausted all my energy. I am afraid it will be difficult to recover."
"What! How could this happen?"
The third prince let go of Chen the imperial physician's hand in a daze.
Thinking of something, he immediately grabbed him again. "Aren't you the imperial physician? You've always been a skilled doctor. Didn't you cure him before?"
Now go and discipline her!"
Imperial Physician Chen shook his head and said, "Third Prince, please forgive me, I am truly powerless. The most I can do is to buy her some time.
Whether she lives or dies depends on the fate of Princess Chang'an."
"How could this happen? How could this happen? Isn't it just a fall into the water?
Yang Liu woke up immediately. But why is Shuang Shuang so seriously ill?
The emperor couldn't bear to see him like this, so he gave orders to the eunuch who was in charge of the seal.
"Come here, confine the Third Prince to the Third Prince's Mansion. He is not allowed to leave without a permit."
When the imperial concubine heard this, she was so frightened that she knelt down suddenly.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me this time.
He knew he was wrong, he really knew he was wrong!
I will send him to the Zhongyi Palace to plead guilty to Princess Chang'an. Please forgive him this time."
This time, the emperor didn't even give the imperial concubine any face and gave the order coldly.
"The imperial concubine is not a good parent and is under house arrest for three months."
The imperial concubine raised her head suddenly, and when she saw the emperor's serious face, she knew that there was no turning back, and she collapsed to the ground in an instant.
Ever since the imperial concubine married the emperor, who was then just a prince, as a concubine, the emperor has been extremely fond of her.
No matter what dirty things happened between her and the queen, the emperor would always protect her first.
Even if she did something excessive, the emperor would excuse her.
This is the first time that she has been confined without regard for her reputation.
When a eunuch came and respectfully asked her to return to the palace.
The imperial concubine suddenly woke up, rushed over, hugged the emperor's calf, and the emperor murmured.
"Your Majesty, you cannot treat me like this. Your Majesty! Please..."
As a noble concubine, she was confined by the emperor. How could she maintain her pride as a noble concubine in front of other concubines?
However, the emperor remained unmoved and uttered two cold words.
"Drag away!"
