Chapter 1879: The Crown Princess Was Assassinated
In the Crown Prince’s residence, the Crown Princess Consort Ye Yao was pacing back and forth in fear, nervousness, and anger. There was no one around her.
The Crown Princess Consort clenched her fists and muttered angrily,” He lied to me, he lied to me! He clearly said that the poison wouldn’t harm me. But now, I’m enduring immense pain and despair, but Lin Yuelan cured me!”
“Why is this happening?” The Crown Princess Consort looked very pained as she cried,” I did so much, even betraying the Crown Prince, just to fulfil his ambitions. But why didn’t he put me in his heart at all? Is it because I was abandoned when I was young? Is it because I was abandoned? Is it because he’s unwilling to give me even a little fatherly love?”
Just as the Crown Princess Consort was crying her heart out, she suddenly heard movement outside.
Moreover, it sounded like the sound of fighting outside the house. She immediately looked puzzled.
She opened a window slightly and saw two groups of men in black fighting. She was shocked.
One of the men in black was the Crown Prince’s secret guard, but who sent the other group?
What was their purpose?
The crown princess consort was puzzled for a moment, but her expression instantly disappeared. She closed the window and lay back on the bed. A moment later, someone pushed open the door and came in. He shouted anxiously,” Crown princess consort, please follow me!”
The Crown Princess Consort saw a stranger and asked in confusion,” Who are you?”
That person said,” Crown Princess Consort, I’m Old Master’s subordinate. There is a group of people outside who want to assassinate you. Hurry up and leave this place with your subordinates.”
The Crown Princess Consort’s pale face immediately showed confusion. She looked at the person who had come and asked suspiciously,” Who wants to assassinate me?”
The person said,” It’s Lin Yuelan’s people!”
The crown prince consort was shocked and asked in bewilderment,” Lin Yuelan? Why does Lin Yuelan want to kill me?”
The person said,” Lin Yuelan instructed people to poison you, Crown Princess Consort. Now, His Majesty is requesting the Crown Prince to investigate this matter thoroughly. In order to destroy the evidence, Lin Yuelan had no choice but to silence you!”
However, the Crown Princess Consort was very suspicious of the person’s words. She said,” Did he really send you?”
The person said,” Of course.”
“Then do you know what the poison in my body is?” The Crown Princess asked warily.
“Of course, I know! This poison is…” The person looked around, then approached the Crown Princess Consort and said softly,” This poison was put in by Old Master. This time, the framing plan has failed. The only person who can save the situation and turn defeat into victory is you, Crown Princess Consort…”
Ding! Ding!
There was a crisp sound of something falling to the ground.
The Crown Princess Consort looked at the ground. It was a dagger.
If she remembered correctly, the dagger was aimed at her chest.
In other words, this person was here to kill her.
The Crown Princess Consort was so frightened that she quickly took a few steps back. Her expression was one of panic, and her face was extremely pale as she asked,” Who are you? Why do you want to kill me?”
The person looked around and did not find anything unusual. He thought that his dagger had accidentally fallen off.
He bent down to pick up the dagger and played with it a few more times before sneering,” Crown Princess Consort, I’ve already told you just now. I was sent by Old Master. However, there’s one thing you don’t know. Old Master didn’t send me here to save you but to kill you!”
When the Crown Princess Consort heard this, she kept shaking her head. She couldn’t accept this fact at all. She held her head and shouted,” Impossible, impossible, he won’t kill me.”
