Chapter 314 Mo Qingkui is crippled



Chapter 314 Mo Qingkui is crippled

Mo Qingkui subconsciously took a step back, her face pale.

He gripped his sleeves with both hands, and his voice began to tremble.

"Your Majesty, I didn't mean to! I just slipped, I didn't..."

"Enough!" Gao Xian waved his sleeve and looked at her coldly.

His gaze was filled with disgust and anger.

It's obvious they don't believe it.

Suddenly, hurried footsteps rang out.

Shen Xingjian led a group of people out of the depths of the woods, stopped a short distance away, knelt on one knee, and clasped his hands in a salute.

"Your Majesty, I am late in coming to your rescue. Please forgive me!"

Gao Xian didn't even glance at Shen Xingjian; his voice was low and cold, as if squeezed out from between his teeth.

"The deposed Consort Chen was demoted to a lower-ranking concubine and moved to the most secluded hall in the palace, never to be seen again in this life."

He can accept Mo Qingkui's changes.

Even after discovering that she was mean-spirited and liked to bully others, he never thought of crippling her.

But he couldn't accept that Mo Qingkui actually wanted to harm people! Wanted to kill!

How can you cherish such a wicked woman so much!

All those years of protection I've given you have turned out to be a joke!

Mo Qingkui's face drained of color instantly, and her legs went weak, causing her to kneel on the ground.

Her eyes were filled with disbelief and terror, her lips trembled, but she couldn't make a sound.

After a brief moment of stunned silence, she finally screamed.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, you can't do this to me!"

"You can't! You can't!"

Her voice was trembling with sobs as she repeatedly kowtowed.

Her forehead was quickly covered in mud, and she looked extremely disheveled.

Qin Jiuwei looked up at the two of them, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.

She sensed something was wrong while she was inside the house, and later heard footsteps by the pool.

Originally, I thought I'd just go with the flow and let Mo Qingkui suffer the consequences.

I never expected that Gao Xian would see it.

What was even more unexpected was that Gao Xian would act so decisively and swiftly.

Gao Xian left Mo Qingkui no room for maneuver, and turned his back after speaking.

Shen Xingjian stepped forward and dragged her away.

Just then, a sweet, clear, and childlike voice suddenly rang out from not far away.

"Mother!"

Immediately afterwards, a small figure darted through the crowd.

He ran up to Qin Jiuwei and pounced on her, hugging her leg.

Qin Jiu lowered her head and met Xie Jue's fair and chubby face.

Xie Jue looked up, her eyes red-rimmed, her voice filled with urgency: "Mother! Are you alright? I was so worried!"

Qin Jiuwei's eyes welled up with tears when she saw him.

She knelt down, gently stroked Xie Jue's forehead, and softly comforted her, "Don't be afraid, Mother is alright."

Hearing her voice calmed Xie Jue's panic somewhat, but he still held Qin Jiuwei's hand tightly.

I was afraid that if I let go again, she would disappear.

Soon, Xie Jingchun and Xie Jing also rushed over.

Seeing that Qin Jiuwei was safe and sound, the two finally felt relieved.

They walked quickly to Qin Jiuwei.

Xie Yanli followed behind them, with Zizhu whispering to him about the situation.

Qin Jiuwei looked at the two tall and straight young boys in front of her.

My heart softened completely in an instant.

She touched Xie Jingchun's shoulder and then gently straightened Xie Jing's clothes.

"Mother is fine, she's right here."

Upon hearing this, all three of them nodded vigorously.

Father is fine, and mother is fine too.

They are a good family.

They will always be alright.

Beijing.

For the first two days, nothing that happened during the spring hunt leaked to the capital.

Until the third day.

Following Xie Yanli's instructions, Zhao Mingcai spread the news.

However, some things were deliberately concealed, and now the capital only knows that Xie Yanli and Qin Jiuwei fell off a cliff and went missing.

Hou House.

"My lord! Something terrible has happened! Rumors are spreading that the young master has fallen off a cliff!"

"What?" Lord Xie stood up abruptly, his whole body tense.

He strode up to the attendant, stared down at him, and said in a stern voice, "Say that again!"

"It's true, it really is news of the young master falling off a cliff... I just heard it too..."

The prayer beads in Madam Xie's hand slipped to the ground, her eyes filled with disbelief and shock.

"Nonsense!" Lord Xie shouted again, his eyes fixed on the kneeling servant with sharp eyes.

"Where did the information come from? Who said it?"

The servant, his face pale, lowered his head and whispered, "Yes, it was Lord Zhao Ming..."

Upon hearing the name "Zhao Ming," Lord Xie's face turned deathly pale.

He stood there, stunned, his breath catching in his throat.

Zhao Ming was a cabinet minister and could be considered Xie Yanli's confidant.

Since he said that, then it must be...

Madam Xie behind her gasped in surprise, and even her prayer beads fell to the ground.

"Old lady!"

When Granny Zhang saw that Old Madam Xie's body went limp and she collapsed, she immediately cried out in alarm.

"Quickly, go and fetch the royal physician!" Lord Xie panicked instantly.

Upon receiving the order, the servant took off running, scrambling and stumbling as he rushed out.

Xie Zhongzhi lowered his eyes and glanced coldly at the old lady who had fainted on the ground.

A subtle and sinister smile curled at the corner of his lips.

For so many years, Xie Yanli was the only person in his father's and grandmother's eyes.

Now that Xie Yanli is finally dead, seeing their agonizing expressions fills him with a sense of satisfaction!

The glory of the Marquis's mansion has finally come to him!

He will become the heir apparent! He will uphold the dignity of the Marquis's mansion!

People will no longer only know Xie Yanli and not Xie Zhongzhi!

Thinking of this, his murderous aura intensified, and his gaze became as dark as an abyss.

Lady Hou could hardly hide the smugness in her eyes.

That felt great! That was so satisfying!

What wonderful news! Heaven is truly blessing this mother and child!

After all these years, she has finally waited for this day!

From now on, the Marquis's mansion will belong to them, mother and son!

In the eldest princess's mansion.

Xu Liuer walked into the courtyard, looking travel-worn and tired.

She recently opened a pastry shop in the south of the city.

Business is doing very well, but people are also much busier than before.

However, she still likes her current life very much.

Before Xu Liuer could even catch her breath, she heard a flurry of footsteps approaching.

"Miss Xu! Something terrible has happened! Her Highness the Princess is bleeding!"

A maidservant rushed forward, her face pale.

Upon hearing this, Xu Liuer's heart sank, and she quickly hurried to the backyard.
