The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 1183

Chapter 1183: 574 Jiaojiao and Long Yi (two updates)_2

The second owner said with a trembling voice, "I don’t know! Just now a patient who was treated in our Medical Hall turned out to be an officer from the imperial guards, and then his subordinate reported that something happened in the palace, and the Empress told him to hurry into the Imperial Palace!"

Imperial Palace, Bixia Hall.

Princess Ning An, who was slapped down the stairs by Princess Xinyang yesterday and suffered injuries all over her body, was now holding Qin Chuyu hostage with a dagger.

By her side and behind her stood no fewer than ten experts, poised and ready, to prevent anyone from snatching Qin Chuyu back from her grasp.

A large number of imperial guards lay in ambush outside Bixia Hall, with archers also ready for action.

Princess Ning An looked towards Empress Xiao and fearlessly said, "Don’t act rashly. Killing me is a minor issue, but no one can guarantee that I won’t accidentally cut your son’s throat as I fall."

Empress Xiao had never expected that Princess Ning An would be so quick to seek a fight to the death with them, revealing that she could no longer hide her fearlessness. Had she simply given up on pretending?

Empress Xiao had to admit that an ordinary person couldn’t be as resolute as Ning An.

Indeed, this was a woman with audacity!

After being placed under house arrest in Bixia Hall, Princess Ning An immediately began to assess the chances of turning the tables against the hostile winds. Princess Xinyang had displayed an absolute power at Jinluan Hall that could not be taken away; the Emperor doted on her, but Xinyang did not indulge her.

It was only a matter of time before she was exposed.

Instead of sitting around waiting to die, it was better to take the initiative and catch them off guard!

"Mother, I’m scared... sob sob..."

Qin Chuyu cried out in terror.

Empress Xiao’s heart shattered. She wished she could tear this woman, who wouldn’t even spare a child, to pieces!

What would her brother do if he were here?

Her brother would surely say, "Stop crying. Would you not be ashamed of a man letting out tears like leaking urine?"

"Stop crying!" Empress Xiao took a deep breath and sternly said, "You are a prince! Hold those tears back!"

Qin Chuyu was taken aback at first, then cried even harder, "I can’t hold them back... sob sob..."

Empress Xiao was both angry and heartbroken. She suppressed her emotions and coldly looked at Ning An, "What exactly do you want?"

Princess Ning An said coldly, "Prepare a carriage, send us out of the city! No one is allowed to follow. Otherwise, your son and I will die together!"

Steward Su looked at Empress Xiao with concern.

Empress Xiao clenched her fists and said, "...Prepare the carriage!"

"Ah!" Qin Chuyu shrieked in terror! _{ƒreewebɳovel.com}

Steward Su brought over a specifically prepared carriage.

The experts lifted Huangfu Xian, still on his wheelchair, onto the carriage, and Princess Ning An, holding Qin Chuyu hostage, also boarded.

"Lianlian, come up," she said.

Lianlian, with tears in her eyes, got on too.

Princess Ning An pulled back the curtain and said to Empress Xiao, "Don’t let anyone follow. If I find anyone, I’ll cut off one of his fingers!"

...

"The Seventh Prince has been kidnapped? Which city gate did they leave from?" Xiao Hen asked Steward Qin, who came to report the news.

Steward Qin said, "According to the message from the City Guard, it’s the west city gate."

"West city gate." Xiao Hen stood up to search.

Gu Jiao coincidentally placed a map in front of him.

Xiao Hen nodded in thanks, "Thank you."

He spread out the map and pointed to the Official Road outside the west city gate, saying, "Cangbei Road, Cangbei Mountain, Phoenix Pavilion... their horses should be tired by the time they reach Phoenix Pavilion. There’s a post station near Phoenix Pavilion. If they need to change horses, they might stop there."
