The red gold hairpins on Yuan's temples trembled unsteadily. She slapped Lin Huaijin with her backhand, causing him to stagger two steps. "You are a filthy bastard who is looking for death! You are a waste! You are incapable of accomplishing anything, but you are always causing trouble! Go to the ancestral hall and kneel until dawn!"
Lin Huaijin was obviously very afraid of the ancestral hall. Despite his extremely tall stature, he suddenly curled up like a shrimp, holding his head and sobbing in public, "Mother, I won't dare to do it again! Don't hit me! Jin'er won't go to the ancestral hall, I'm afraid..."
Eunuch Qi's face became increasingly gloomy, and a sharp gleam like a knife shone through his eyes.
He raised his orchid finger, narrowed his eyes, and slowly stroked the wrinkled cloud dragon pattern on the imperial edict with his fingertips. He said in a shrill voice, "Oh my, I've finally opened my eyes today. The Lin family is so powerful that they even dare to fight against the Xiu'an Prince who was personally appointed by the emperor!"
Yuan was shocked to realize that her foolish son was no longer someone she could beat whenever she wanted, but His Royal Highness the Prince approved by the imperial pen. A chill suddenly ran up her spine, and even the red gold hairpins on her temples rustled.
"Eunuch Qi..." Yuan's throat tightened and she wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, "I was confused for a moment..."
Eunuch Qi sneered, "If Madam Lin's slap is recorded in the clan records, I'm afraid it will be more than just kneeling in the ancestral hall."
After such a commotion, Eunuch Qi took the opportunity to bring Lin Huaijin into the palace on the grounds that he was worried that Prince Xiu'an would be beaten.
A few days later, Empress Dowager Duan'an and Prince Xiu'an went directly to their fiefdom.
The Lin family didn’t get the news until several days after the person had passed away. Yuan was so angry that she collapsed on the spot and kept calling him “evil creature”.
I don’t know whether she was scolding her daughter or her stupid son.
Emperor Wenxuan settled his mother and uncle, and finally felt relieved. He spent every day with the young queen, just waiting for the day to set off for Liang State.
Who would have thought that the news that the prince consort was not dead would spread like wildfire.
Within a few days, the news had spread widely among the people.
The storyteller of "Fuguilou" clapped his wake-up stick and blew it with great joy, "Did you know, dear readers? That prince consort was actually Uranus incarnate! On that day, among the thousands of soldiers and horses, a golden light shot up into the sky. What do you think happened to that golden light later?"
"how?"
"Of course, it turned into a golden bell, covering the prince consort tightly! As the saying goes, if you borrow a life from the Nine Heavens, the golden armor god will protect you!"
So, the prince consort is not dead!
Wei Pingting leaned against the red railing, listening to the palace maids repeating rumors, and couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Zhu Tou Jiu, listen to this, the prince consort has now become a god with three heads and six arms."
Zhu Tou Jiu raised his head proudly and said, "My charcoal seller is definitely a god with three heads and six arms."
But one day, a woman wearing a plain gauze hat sat in a teahouse. The celadon teacup cracked between her fingers, and the amber tea dripped along the cracks on the table, leaving a hideous claw mark on the blue brick floor.
"This girl..." The waiter was about to step forward when he suddenly saw the woman squeeze out a word "very good" from between her teeth, her voice as cold as if it were poisoned.
She threw out a piece of silver, and when she stood up, a corner of her veil was lifted by the draft. In the dim lantern light of the teahouse, half of her mean and cold face was revealed.
In the private room on the second floor, the storyteller was talking about the exciting part of "the prince consort single-handedly breaking out of the siege" when the gavel was banged loudly.
The woman, however, looked resentful amid the cheers from the whole room, and her cuffs embroidered with butterflies were trembling.
A carriage stopped in front of her and the woman got on.
She pulled off her veil and threw it at her feet, gritting her teeth and said viciously, "How come Shi Anxia is so lucky? Didn't her husband die? Isn't she a widow?"
The maid bent down to pick up the veil and whispered to comfort her, "Madam, calm down. This must be some idle fool's nonsense. The prince consort must be dead! And that woman must be a widow!"
The woman seemed to be comforted. She pressed down her violently heaving chest and tightly closed her eyes. "Yes, the prince consort must be dead. Shi Anxia is destined to be a widow!"
Just as he finished speaking, a gong sounded at the end of the long street, "The envoys from Liang State are entering the capital! All outsiders, please stand aside..."
