Chapter 583: Taking this opportunity to add insult to injury
Qin Yumo was naturally happy to be able to leave the palace. She had been stuck in the palace for so long that she couldn't stand it anymore.
When the third prince saw Qin Yumo’s smile, his mood also improved. He raised his hand and hugged Qin Yumo in his arms.
"Yumo, I promise you that I will make you my queen in the future."
"With your highness's kindness, I will be satisfied to be with you no matter what my status is."
"Swoosh!" Suddenly, a sharp arrow shot in from the car window!
Qin Yumo’s bun was nailed directly to the car!
"Ah!" Qin Yumo screamed in fright.
The third prince immediately protected Qin Yumo and held her tightly in his arms.
"There's an assassin! Protect the Third Prince!" The guards immediately surrounded the carriage.
"Swish, swish, swish!" Arrows kept shooting towards the carriage.
When the people around saw this situation, they quickly fled in all directions.
"Killing! Killing!"
After a round of arrows, the guards also suffered casualties.
An arrow pierced through the carriage and grazed the third prince's arm, tearing his clothes and scratching his skin, which continued to bleed.
Qin Yumo was terrified.
She couldn't imagine how someone could assassinate the third prince just outside the imperial city?
"Swish, swish, swish!" Another sound of arrows came.
More and more people were hit by arrows outside the carriage.
"Third Prince, please sit tight! I will take you back to the city immediately!"
There was a sound outside, and the carriage suddenly turned around. Qin Yumo fell into the arms of the third prince and felt a sharp pain in her abdomen.
"Yu Mo, are you okay?" the third prince asked anxiously.
"I am fine."
As soon as Qin Yumo finished speaking, the carriage suddenly stopped.
The carriage tilted to the side.
"Ah!" Qin Yumo screamed.
The third prince tried his best to protect her, but they both fell badly.
The carriage was broken, and through the gap one could see that the driver had been shot in the neck by an arrow.
In this situation, I’m afraid they won’t be able to return to the city even if they want to.
The third prince let go of Qin Yumo and immediately got out of the carriage.
"Your Highness!" Qin Yumo called out, holding her stomach.
"Yumo, don't be afraid. They are coming for me. As long as I'm not with you, you'll be safe. Don't worry, I will never let anything happen to you."
"Your Highness, don't!" Qin Yumo shouted loudly.
As soon as the third prince appeared, the assassins immediately targeted him.
The road to the imperial city had been blocked, so the third prince jumped on his horse and ran back towards the imperial city.
The surviving guards also hurriedly followed the third prince and left.
The assassin also gave chase.
Qin Yumo climbed out of the carriage in a panic, and her personal maid immediately helped her up.
Before she could say anything, she felt something hot flowing out from under her body. She lowered her head and saw bright red blood. She clenched her fists and felt a sharp abdominal pain.
"My child, my child!" Qin Yumo screamed like crazy.
Not long after, a group of people came running over.
Seeing Qin Yumo, the leader immediately dismounted from his horse.
"Hurry! Go and save the Third Prince, they are going in that direction!" Qin Yumoru endured the pain and pointed in the direction the Third Prince left.
Her child is gone, and the Third Prince must not allow anything to happen to him again!
When the news of the third prince's assassination reached the queen's ears, her legs went limp and she collapsed to the ground!
The next moment, she forced herself to stand up and ran out.
"I want to see the emperor! Anyone who dares to stop me will be killed!" the queen shouted.
No one dared to stop the guards at the palace gate.
She just ran out with her hair disheveled!
The Queen Mother was admiring the flowers in the Imperial Garden, her eyes fixed on one spot.
"Who is that person? Why is he so crazy?!"
"Replying to Her Majesty the Queen Mother, it seems to be Her Majesty the Queen."
"That person is the queen?" The queen mother was surprised. "What happened?"
"I just heard that the Third Prince was assassinated outside the Imperial City!"
"Dead?" The Queen Mother's voice sounded without any emotion.
"I don't know whether he is dead or not." The palace maid replied in a low voice.
The Queen Mother chuckled. "She is so anxious. She must be going to see the Emperor and begging him to save the Third Prince. I will go and take a look too. After all, he is my grandson. I am also very concerned about the safety of the Third Prince."
Seeing the Queen's crazy look, the Queen Mother felt so relieved!
Just like when she found out that Concubine Cao had been killed twice, she almost went crazy!
The queen ran all the way to the imperial study.
When Chao Sihai saw that the person who broke in was actually the queen, the words he wanted to scold got stuck in his throat.
"Your Majesty!" The Queen threw herself down in front of the dragon table, "Your Majesty, someone is trying to assassinate the Third Prince, please save him!"
"What!" The emperor stood up immediately.
"Your Majesty, please send the inner court guards to rescue the third prince!" After the queen said this, she kowtowed to the emperor continuously.
"Chao Sihai, immediately send the inner court guards to rescue the third prince!" the emperor immediately gave the order.
"Yes!" Chao Sihai turned around and retreated, and bumped into the Queen Mother head-on.
"Your servant greets the Empress Dowager."
"Eunuch Chao is so anxious, is there something urgent?" The Queen Mother asked knowingly.
"Your Highness, the Third Prince was assassinated outside the palace. I am dispatching the inner court guards to go there on the orders of the Emperor..."
"Pass the order to all four seas!" the queen screamed loudly.
Chao Sihai didn't dare to delay any longer. Even if the empress dowager didn't call him to get up, he got up and ran out regardless of everything.
A hint of smile flashed in the Queen Mother's eyes. Now the Queen knew what it meant to feel the pain deeply.
"Your Majesty, was the third prince really assassinated?" the Queen Mother asked again.
"I just received the news as well." The emperor replied with a sullen face.
"Queen, don't be too sad. The third prince is a lucky man and will be fine." The Queen Mother said with pretended concern.
"Your Majesty, please allow me to take my leave first." The Queen bowed deeply to the Emperor again, turned around and walked out.
"Your Majesty, seeing how the Queen treats me, you won't suspect that I sent someone to assassinate the Third Prince, right? After all, the Third Prince is my grandson, how could I possibly do such a thing? Only someone as cruel and ruthless as the Queen, who didn't even spare an unborn child, would think this way. She thinks that others are just like her, using whatever means to achieve their goals."
The emperor has a headache.
Who on earth is so determined to kill the third prince at all costs?
Who has such courage!
The queen returned to the palace and Qin Yumo was also sent back.
From Qin Yumo's mouth, she finally knew the whole story.
Without caring about Qin Yumo's weak appearance covered in blood, he slapped Qin Yumo in the face.
Qin Yumo was stunned, her eyes went dark and she almost fainted.
"You bitch! You're the death star! It's all because of you that the Third Prince was assassinated! If anything happens to the Third Prince, I will kill you with my own hands!"
