Handmaiden and Emperor

Chapter 6

"This~" Concubine Duan couldn' t say it was for the sake of a palace maid. She should go and have someone invite an imperial physician. Wouldn' t it be that he had fallen into someone else's trap, saying that he had no way of seeing the palace, and that he couldn' t explain that the palace maid and his third prince were the same brother and sister, right? Was it to make others laugh at the third prince, or was it him? He could not tell the truth. Concubine Duan made up her mind not to admit it.

"I' m afraid Mrs. Song' ve misheard it," Chu Feng said. "This concubine and the third prince are both in good health. There's no reason to ask for an imperial physician. Naturally, there's no reason to ask for an imperial physician. Your Highness must have heard wrongly." Concubine Duan explained.

Ha! Bold! "You' re saying that this one is talking nonsense. Did you wrongly accuse you?" Mrs. Song slammed the teacup down heavily. The teacup fell to the ground and broke into pieces. The tea splashed all over, and the corners of Duan Pin's clothes were also stained by the tea.

Concubine Duan knew that Mrs. Song had come here to find trouble. She was already unhappy about her promotion to the imperial rank. Her son, the Third Prince, was much more outstanding than her son, the First Prince. No matter if it was his knowledge or courage. As the third prince, he was even more favored by the emperor. As for the first prince, he had been punished for being lazy. The two princes were often compared. As his mother, he was naturally very happy to see his son so outstanding. However, being too outstanding would inevitably lead to jealousy.

Concubine Duan knew that she was wrong no matter what she said." Naturally, I don' t dare to say that it's the Empress' s fault. However, what this concubine said is also the truth. I' m afraid that the Empress has suffered from this lowly person's words."

"Oh, that's right. Concubine Duan, I think you' ve become a concubine. He lied and lied to me. He actually dared to question me. Today, I' ll let you see if I' m framing you. "Wait a minute," Mrs. Song said as he raised his eyebrows." Someone, go and invite me to see the patient too far away from the Jing An palace."

It turned out that Mrs. Song had come prepared. Seeing that Mrs. Song was really going to invite imperial physicians, Duan Pin panicked.

"Wait, there's no need to go." Concubine Duan stopped the palace servants who went to invite the imperial physician. She looked at Mrs. Song and said," The news that the Empress has heard is correct. This minister's concubine has invited an imperial physician."

"Yo~ Didn' t you admit it earlier? What was going on now. "That cheap woman is a pretentious person. If you don' t see the coffin, you won' t shed tears." Mrs. Song had an expression that he knew long ago. He looked at Duan Pin in front of him arrogantly, feeling secretly refreshed.

"You, didn' t you just say that I can' t believe what I said? Now, why did you remember that your memory was so bad at such a young age. From the looks of your lies, I' m afraid that there are many things that lie to me and the Emperor. "What are you asking the imperial physician for!" Mrs. Song this time, he would not let go of concubine Duan.

Concubine Duan was already scared out of her wits. She had already knelt down with a loud crash, yet she still dared to speak.

"Alright, you Duan Pin, didn' t you speak so eloquently just now! Now, he was pretending to be deaf and mute. "I think you don' t care about me." Mrs. Song was already furious.

"I don' t dare." Duan Pin could only tremble as she spoke.

"Don' t dare? I think you' ve eaten the guts of a leopard. He dared to jump over my head. "Someone come, serve me with a whip. I can see that concubine Duan has a temper that doesn' t shed tears without seeing the coffin. I have to fight to cure it." Mrs. Song true purpose was revealed. How could she have come to ask questions? She was clearly using this opportunity to make things difficult for Duan Pin. Duan Pin thought to herself that she was deliberately trying to make things difficult for her, but she was in the wrong for this matter. It would not be good if she made a big fuss. He had no choice but to resist.

At this moment Mrs. Song the Eunuch by his side had already brought the whip over. The strength of the eunuchs was naturally much greater than that of the palace maids, but this Mrs. Song was ruthless.

"Ah~" Following the sound of the whip being whipped, Duan Pin cried out miserably. As an imperial concubine of the harem, her skin was tender and tender. Although her status in the past was not very noble, she had never suffered this kind of pain. He felt both anger and grievance in his heart, and the pain of his skin and flesh was hurting his heart.

Concubine Duan was being whipped, but Mrs. Song side was feeling proud. Seeing how Duan Pin was suffering, Mrs. Song didn' t mention how happy she was. She wanted to laugh.

"You still haven' t said it? Continue fighting! "A bit more vicious." Mrs. Song was not satisfied.

On the other side Eunuch just as he was about to whip, a small figure rushed over and protected Concubine Duan. Everyone looked over and saw that it was the Third Prince. Eunuch naturally didn' t dare to hit the prince. He hesitated and stopped.

"Mrs. Song what are you doing? Why did you hit me Mother Consort?" Chu Feng asked. "This place is Jing An palace, not inside your palace. You can' t be used as a blessing." The third prince was unable to breathe as he watched Concubine Duan suffer.

"Ouch~Third Prince. It would teach me a lesson. Do you still have any respect for the younger generation! Concubine Duan was a good son you had taught! That's good. It seems that both of you don' t care about me. Even a little child dares to speak to me like this. "I wonder how you usually teach me!" Mrs. Song was in the midst of his excitement, being struck by natural energy.

"Mrs. Song calm your anger, Tong Yan Wuji. The third prince was merely grieving for his concubine. Mrs. Song Don' t argue with the child." Concubine Duan consoled her, but it was more important to protect her child.

"Hmph~" Mrs. Song snorted and said," A child can say something like this. It can be seen how careless you usually are!"

"Mother Consort taught Dutiful Son very seriously. There's no need for Mrs. Song to worry about it. Mrs. Song I will teach the Great Prince well."

"Alright, you! He still dared to talk back to me. I think you Mother Consort a virtue with you. Alright, let the mother and son have a deep love for each other today. "Let's fight together." Speaking of the Great Prince, he was naturally not as outstanding as the Third Prince. This had also caused Mrs. Song pain.

"Your Highness, forgive me. The third prince is still a child." However, Duan Pin's begging voice Mrs. Song completely deaf.

Mrs. Song she was able to beat Duan Pin, but she was also afraid of the crime of beating the prince. She did not dare to beat the third prince, but only had him kneel to the side. Today, the purpose of this Mrs. Song had already arrived. Naturally, he could not recall the matter of the imperial physician. That was just a cover. Seeing that it was almost done, Mrs. Song got up and drove back to the palace, leaving behind a bedraggled room of servants and masters.

### Chapter10

The next day, the Third Prince went to class as usual, but he met the Great Prince on the way.

"Isn' t this Third Brother?" The Great Prince's voice.

"Third brother greets big brother." The third prince was still respectful.

"How could you still come to class today? Looks like your legs are fine now. "That's because the punishment isn' t heavy enough. I can still walk." The Great Prince meant what happened yesterday.

The third prince was very angry, but he still endured it. The effort on his face was faint, but it didn' t flare up. His tightly clenched fist loosened after a thought struggle. Pretending as if nothing had happened, he said," I' ll trouble Big Brother to be concerned. I don' t have anything to worry about."

The third prince's meaning was to take care of yourself. How could the first prince not understand? Seeing that the third prince was not provoked by him, the first prince had to make an inch.

"Even if your legs are fine, you shouldn' t have come to class. You' re better, but your Mother Consort wasn' t whipped. "I' m afraid that you' ll have to stay in bed for a few days. You don' t know how to take care of her, but you' ve already come out for class. What class are you going to take?" The First Prince's tone was extremely arrogant.

"Great Prince, don' t go too far." The Third Prince clenched his fist again.

"How can I go too far? I' m just telling the truth. You' ve Mother Consort made a mistake and caused Mrs. Song to punish you. You still can' t do anything." Before the word' bed' could be uttered, the Great Prince was stunned by the third prince's punch. The Great Prince had never suffered such a grievance before. After being stunned for a moment, he immediately stood up and rushed forward. One punch from you, one kick from me, two figures tangled together.

In the end, he was young and weak. Even though the Third Prince's movements were nimble, he could not defeat the First Prince's punches and kicks. After all, his age was still there, so his strength was naturally not different. After this battle, the Great Prince naturally had the upper hand. The Third Prince had lost, and his face was swollen.

After class, the third prince quickly ran back to Jing An palace. Because his face was swollen and his nose was bruised, he encountered many criticisms when he went to class. Along the way, even the palace maid Eunuch glanced at him from time to time. How could the little youth be able to live up to his dignity. Furthermore, when he thought of the Great Prince teasing him Mother Consort he could not avenge him. He could not defeat the Great Prince. There was also yesterday's unreasonable Mrs. Song of bragging and bragging. All of this made it hard for the Third Prince to endure. As a prince, he could not protect the person he wanted to protect. The Third Prince felt that he was useless.

After thinking about it, the third prince returned to the Jing An palace and ran towards Bao Yuan palace. Only Sister Bao Yuan was able to answer her questions. The Third Prince wanted to immediately tell Bao Yuan what he wanted to do.

"Sister Bao Yuan." The third prince's voice caused Bao Yuan to be startled. When he saw that the third prince's face was swollen, his heart ached and he asked "What's wrong? "Third Prince"

"Sister Bao Yuan, I fought with the Great Prince. I can' t defeat him." The Third Prince said dejectedly.

"Did he beat you or did you beat him first?"

"I was the one who beat him first, but that was also because of something. The Great Prince laughed at my Mother Consort. I want to avenge my Mother Consort. "But I can' t beat the Great Prince."
