Chapter Eighty-Seven: Causing a Commotion in the Imperial Palace, The Empress Dowager Demands an Explanation

  The empress dowager did not expect this either and for a moment was flustered.

  "Imperial physician! Imperial physician!" someone in the crowd shouted urgently.

  The imperial physician hastily ran forward and opened his medicine box to stop Lin Xiang's bleeding.

  "Mother! Mother!" Liang'er was frightened and cried as she tried to run into Lin Xiangyan's arms.

  "Someone come, Xue Gong Palace is in chaos, quickly take the little princess away!" The empress ordered.

  "Yes!" Then several guards took her away despite Lian'er's struggles.

  Soon the bleeding stopped. I rushed forward to support Lin Xuan's body, gently shaking her: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty? What happened? Don't you dare have an accident!"

  But saw Lin Xuan's eyelashes tremble slightly, and then slowly opened her eyes.

  The Empress Dowager let out a long sigh. If the Queen had been in her own hands, the Emperor would have blamed herself. Now that she's awake, let's just continue with the account.

  The empress dowager was just about to speak when she saw Lin Xuan's face slightly furrowed, and then asked: "What are all of you doing surrounding me?"

  One sentence shocked everyone, and they all looked at each other in dismay.

  "Ah, I know!" Lin Xuan excitedly jumped up, "You guys are playing a game, right? Why didn't you call me?" The queen smiled with an innocent face.

  The emperor and empress have gone mad?!

  "Let me guess what you're playing? Hide and seek or eagle catching chickens?" Lin Xiangyan looked around curiously, "Who are you guys? I don't recognize any of you!"

  "Empress Dowager, it seems that Her Majesty the Empress has a relapse of her old illness." I pulled Lin Xuan's sleeve and said coldly.

  "Relapse of an old illness? You're not pretending in order to shirk responsibility, are you?" The empress dowager spoke forcefully.

  "I couldn't help but say: 'The princess's condition has been stable for the past few days, but as soon as the empress dowager arrived today, her old illness relapsed.'"

  "Are you rebelling against your family?" The Empress Dowager also did not expect things to turn out this way, and in a moment of anger, she said to me.

  "My wife just spoke her mind." I replied calmly.

  "Nowadays, the queen is driven mad, I wonder whose fault it is?" I said.

  The Empress Dowager was at a loss for words, when suddenly, a voice came from the entrance of the inner palace...

  "It was the Empress Dowager who wronged me first, and Mother is just trying to seek justice for me!" The crowd followed the sound and found that it was Princess Rui Yin. Princess Rui Yin had just woken up at this moment and hurriedly walked out of the inner palace to accuse Lin Xuan Yu.

  Only to see Rui Yin princess walking step by step towards the empress dowager, then with a humble expression said: "Mother, Ping Er was poisoned because of the intentional harm caused by the imperial sister-in-law, please mother do justice for Ping Er!" The words were spoken with tears and sobs!

  The Empress Dowager seemed to have obtained strong evidence, and immediately said: "Even if the Queen was driven mad, now there is Ping'er as evidence, it is indeed the Queen who harmed her first. I don't care whether the Queen is mad or not, come and take her away!"

  "Yes!" Just as the guard was about to step forward and open the door, a voice came from outside the hall -

  "With me here, who dares to touch the Empress?" As expected, the Emperor hastily walked in from outside the palace, with Qi'er following closely behind him.

  "Long live the Emperor! May he live forever!" The crowd knelt down.

  Jun Qin ignored the bamboo and walked straight to Lin Xuan's side, looking at the wound on her head, a hint of heartache rose in his chest, then he angrily shouted: "Who hurt my empress? Come out for me!"

  The Empress Dowager coldly snorted: "It was I who was injured. Your Majesty, are you not going to wipe out the entire clan of mine?"
