BXBX NOVEL Chapter 206 - 206: The Unforeseen Event in Huainan Mansion
Zhao Yong was dressed in black. From a distance, Jiang Peihuan hadn’t noticed, but as he approached, she detected the strong scent of blood on him.
Moreover, Zhao Yong’s face was extremely pale.
After some thought, Jiang Peihuan tossed him a bottle of medicine.
Seeing that Jian Peihuan had given him another bottle of medicine, Zhao Yong looked somewhat puzzled. Before he could question, Jiang Peihuan quickly said, “It’s to stop the bleeding.”
Upon hearing Jiang Peihuan’s words, a look of surprise flashed in Zhao Yong’s eyes, followed by a complex emotion. However, he didn’t say anything and simply bowed to Jiang Peihuan before leaving with Zhao Fuqing.
“Eldest Sister, are we going back to the mansion?”
“We rarely come here, so let’s stay for a few days.”
As she spoke, Jiang Peihuan turned to look at Xiao Nanye beside her.
Seeing her gaze, the man directly responded, “Whatever Huan’er wishes.”
Thus, after Zhao Fuqing’s departure, Jiang Peihuan and the others stayed in West Mountain.
Inside the capital city, Huainan King’s Mansion.
“Qing Er? What happened?”
Chu Rou almost fainted when she saw Zhong Fuqing covered in blood.
She turned and stared fiercely at Zhao Yong.
Zhao Yong stepped forward, bowing to Chu Rou before quietly saying, “Your Highness, the prince encountered a brown bear in West Mountain. His leg… was bitten off.”
“What did you say?”
Chu Rou had not noticed anything wrong with Zhao Fuqing, who was covered with a black blanket. But upon hearing Zhao Yong’s words, she tremblingly pulled back the blanket. Seeing Zhao Fuqing’s missing foot, her vision darkened, and she fainted.
“Queen Huainan…”
Nanny Wei saw Chu Rou fall and quickly went forward to support her.
She then yelled at a maid nearby, “What are you waiting for? Go fetch the doctor!”
“Yes.”
The maid, startled by the scene, ran out upon hearing Nanny Wei’s command.
The entire Huainan Mansion was in chaos.
Zhao Yong looked at the servant and whispered,” Where’s His Highness? Has he arrived?”
“I’ve already sent someone to wait at the palace gates. As soon as his highness comes out, he will be inform.”
Hearing this, Zhao Yong nodded.
“Chief Butler Zhao Yong, the doctor is here.”
“Quick, let him treat the prince.”
While the doctor examined Zhao Fuqing, Zhao Yong stayed close. After the examination, Zhao Yong asked softly, “How is prince?”
“His life is not in danger, but?”
“But what?”
The doctor glanced at Zhao Fuqing’s leg and whispered, “From now on, the prince will have a handicap.”
Although the doctor was being tactful, but everyone in the room understood what the doctor meant. He meant that Zhong Fuqing would be a disabled.
“Do you mean that my son will be a cripple from now on? Ah…”
Just as Zhao Yong was about to speak, Chu Rou, the Queen of Huainan, rushed in.
She glared at the doctor with anger in her eyes and spoke coldly.
Seeing the expression in Chu Ron’s eyes, the doctor was shocked. However, he was just a doctor, not a god. He could only tell the truth.
After bowing to Chu Rou, the doctor said in a trembling voice, “Forgive me, your highness, but the young prince’s leg has been bitten off. Even the mightiest god cannot…”
“Shut up, do you believe that 1 will kill you, you quack!”
Before the doctor could finish, Chu Rou shouted at him.
Then, she turned to the guards and ordered, “Kill this useless doctor.”
Hearing Chu Ron’s words, the doctor’s face turned pale. Zhao Yong, having witnessed the scene, stepped forward, “Your Highness, this isn’t the doctor’s fault. Please spare him, he…”
“Slap!”
Before Zhao Yong could finish, Chu Rou slapped him hard on the face.
Glaring at him, Chu Ron’s eyes were dark as she said, “If it’s not his fault, then it’s yours. A servant like you failed to protect your master. You deserve to die too.”
As she spoke, Chu Rou looked at the guard at the side and said coldly,” Kill this damned person as well.””
However, none of the guards from the Huainan Mansion dared to step forward.
Zhao Yong had always been a favorite of the King Huainan. Although Chu Rou was the Queen of the Huainan Mansion, the guards were loyal to the King.
So, no one took action.
Seeing this, Chu Rou, already in a foul mood, looked even more displeased.
She shouted at the guards,” You dog slaves, do you not understand human language?”
“What are you yelling about?”
A deep voice echoed from the entrance.
Everyone knelt down and greeted, “Your Highness.”
Zhao Yang entered the hall. Looking at the hysterical Chu Rou, he said coldly, “Look at yourself. Do you look like a queen?”
“Qing Er is missing a leg and could be dead, how can 1 care about anything now?”
“He brought this on himself. Who else is there to blame?”
Chu Rou was stunned when she heard Zhao Yang’s words.
She stared at Zhao Yang in disbelief.
If she wasn’t certain that her hearing was perfect, she’d have doubted her ears.
She gazed at Zhao Yang in shock, whispering, “Your Highness, what do you mean by that? Qing Er is your own son.”
“He dared to scheme against the Jiang family on West Mountain and was bested. Who is there to blame?”
“And since you mentioned that Qing Er is my son, there’s something else 1 should tell you.”
Hearing this, Chu Rou suddenly had a bad feeling.
She looked up at Zhao Yang, eyes wide in anticipation.
However, Zhao Yang did not look at her. Instead, he looked at Zhao Yong. “Yong Er is also my biological son.”
“What did you say?”
Zhao Yang’s voice was soft, but Chu Rou heard him clearly.
She looked between Zhao Yang and Zhao Yong.
It was then that she noticed the uncanny resemblance between them.
Chu Ron’s face turned ashen. She pointed at Zhao Yang, her fingers trembling, “You heartless man. Have you forgotten what you promised my father and mother? You said you’d take care of me. You said you’d never take another concubine. Now, you say this bastard is your son. Zhao Yang, have you been fair to me, to my parents?”
Faced with Chu Ron’s repeated accusations, Zhao Yang’s expression remained unchanged.
If one looked closely, there was a hint of disgust and anger.
Looking at Chu Rou, Zhao Yang said coldly, “It’s because I promised your father that all these years 1 haven’t been with another woman.”
“But Yong Er is the child of Lian Er.”
Hearing this name, Chu Rou collapsed into a chair nearby..
