Chapter 110 Scars on the Hands
"How can someone with such a vicious heart like her be worthy of giving birth to a dragon fetus?" Jin Yuyan said hatefully, suppressing her anger.
"Her child is precious, and my child is also a son of a phoenix and a dragon. Every time I see Yongcheng so weak, I can't help but feel resentful!
If it was at the Yu Clan, I would have rushed over and tore the two bitches, the Queen and Concubine Hui, to pieces."
It took Zhenshu a lot of consolation for Jin Yuyan to calm down her excitement, "Master, this is not Yu's family.
If you act rashly, you might even implicate the Sixth Prince and the Crown Prince, so you should think twice."
Jin Yuyan closed her eyes and took a deep breath, "Yes, I can't let the prince get in trouble."
"I think that what others say cannot be fully trusted."
Zhenshu said cautiously, "Let me send someone to test it first to see if Huashu's right hand has been injured by the sword.
If he was injured, a wound that big would definitely leave a scar, which would be irrefutable evidence."
"You have always been prudent. But the queen cannot be touched, and the Hua Shu beside her, can't I touch her too?
I know the Queen best. She may seem kindhearted, but she is actually rotten to the core. "
Jin Yuyan's eyes were full of venom, and she sneered and said,
"When she sent Lian Xin to the eunuch's bed, she didn't show any sympathy.
Now, it's just a Hua Shu, she shouldn't be so distressed that she has a miscarriage. I will use her to vent my anger first!"
The Forbidden City was unusually peaceful for quite a while.
Su Lujun gave birth to another son, the seventh prince Yongrong, at full term. He was healthy, plump, and looked blessed.
The Emperor and the Empress Dowager were both very happy, and even Fucha Langya personally sent someone to send double the reward.
As the head aunt of Changchun Palace, it was natural for Huashu to take the gifts to Zhongcui Palace.
Unexpectedly, just after she congratulated Su Lujun and was about to leave, she turned around and met Jin Yuyan who was dressed in gorgeous clothes outside the door of Zhongcui Palace.
"Greetings to Concubine Jia." Hua Shu was a little flustered and bowed his head quickly.
"Oh, it's Aunt Huashu. Get up."
Jin Yuyan stood at the door with a forced smile on her face. The sunlight poured into the hall from behind her, leaving a dark shadow on her face.
"I heard that you had chickenpox before, and I was very worried. I heard that this thing is not only extremely itchy, but if you are not careful and it breaks, it will leave scars."
Jin Yuyan reached out and pinched Huashu's chin between her thumb and index finger.
The pink nail polish-dyed nails dug deeply into Hua Shu's delicate face, leaving a red mark.
Jin Yuyan used her skill to force Hua Shu's face to turn slightly with her movements, as if she was examining a piece of fine porcelain.
Hua Shu felt bad and didn't dare to breathe. Little did she know that Jin Yuyan had been waiting for her at the corner of Zhongcui Palace for a long time.
"However, I see that you still have a pretty face and your skin is as white as tofu. I think you are a very patient person.
You were able to endure the itching and pain after contracting chickenpox without even breaking a single pox or leaving a scar. I really admire you."
Jin Yuyan said this in a sarcastic tone and released the hand that was holding Hua Shu.
Hua Shu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that she could finally escape from Zhongcui Palace, but she saw Zhenshu and Li Xin blocking her way on both sides.
Hua Shu said in a deep voice, "Empress Jia, I still have to go to Changchun Palace to report to the Queen. I can't delay any longer, so I'll take my leave first."
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Jin Yuyan didn't intend to let Huashu go so easily.
She walked around Hua Shu, like a cold, brightly colored poisonous snake, wrapping around Hua Shu.
"Aunt Huashu's skin is so delicate, it turns an alluring pink when I touch it lightly.
With such a beautiful appearance, I don't know why the Queen didn't recommend you to the Emperor, but recommended two ordinary-looking palace maids instead."
Hua Shu tried his best to calm down and replied in a neither humble nor arrogant manner, "Your Highness, Concubine Jia, you are too kind to praise me. My humble appearance is really not pleasing to your eyes.
There are still many errands to be done in Changchun Palace. If Concubine Jia has nothing else to do, I will really leave."
A strong premonition emerged in Hua Shu's heart. She always felt that if she stayed any longer, something bad would definitely happen.
As soon as he finished speaking, Hua Shu rushed straight towards Li Xin, trying to push Li Xin away and take the opportunity to leave.
Unexpectedly, Li Xin was prepared and grabbed Hua Shu's right arm.
Hua Shu's right hand was powerless, so he could only shout in panic while using his left hand to pry Li Xin's hands apart, trying to break free from her grip.
"Li Xin, what are you doing? I am the head maid of the Queen, how dare you be so rude!
"Jia Fei, I am a member of Changchun Palace. You have detained me without reason. Do you think you don't even care about the Empress?"
Jin Yuyan glanced at her, and Zhenshu raised her hand and asked several strong maids behind her to rush forward and force Hua Shu to kneel on the ground.
One of the maids even took a piece of rag and roughly stuffed it into Huashu's mouth to stop her from screaming.
"Hush, Concubine Chun just gave birth to a child, and she can't stand noise. If you shout like that, be careful not to scare the Seventh Prince inside."
Jin Yuyan raised her finger and made a gesture for silence, then signaled Zhenshu to roll up Huashu's sleeves.
On Hua Shu's arm, which was as white as a lotus root, there was a light brown scar that was obviously covered up with powder.
"My lady, this must be a sword wound!" Zhenshu said firmly, "It's impossible for an ordinary fall or abrasion to leave such a deep and neat cut."
Hua Shu was tied up tightly by Jin Yuyan's men. She could only shake her head desperately and struggle in vain.
In the Yangxin Palace, Jin Yuyan pointed at Hua Shu with full confidence and made a sad accusation.
"Your Majesty, the evidence is irrefutable. The red-clothed female ghost in Qixiang Palace that day turned out to be Hua Shu.
I don't know how I have offended Huashu, which has caused her to go to such great lengths to murder me and Yongsheng.
When I think of how weak Yongcheng was when he was just born, I feel guilty. Your Majesty, please make a decision for me and Yongcheng."
This matter really gave the emperor a headache.
Huashu was the head aunt of Changchun Palace. If the empress said that she knew nothing about what she had done, the emperor himself would not believe it.
But the Queen is now pregnant with a legitimate son, and the pregnancy situation is extremely bad, so the fetus must not be disturbed.
Fortunately, Jin Yuyan was sensible and did not report the matter directly to the queen, but came to him for justice.
After thinking it over, the emperor rubbed his forehead and said impatiently, "Did you rush into the Yangxin Palace just for a palace maid?"
Jin Yuyan was stunned for a moment, not sure what the emperor was thinking, so she remained silent and did not dare to speak.
"I know about this matter. I will first lock Hua Shu up in the Ministry of Punishment for strict interrogation, and I will definitely give you an explanation."
