Chapter 789 Traitor
Several people acted quickly. The wet nurse held the little princess, who kept crying. Jiang Fenghua had no choice but to hold her in her arms to comfort her. It was a bloody storm outside, and she couldn't help but sigh that this child had gone through so many things since she was born.
Jiang Fenghua said softly, "Be good, little Yue'er. Your mother will protect you. Just be good and don't make any noise or trouble."
Xie Lingyue really seemed to understand what was said. She stared at Jiang Fenghua's face with her big round eyes and smiled.
Xie Hongyou and Xie Zixuan suddenly took out their own small wooden swords. Jiang Fenghua asked, "When did you get the weapons?"
The two children were also very well behaved. "Our swords are hanging on the head of the bed, just like our mother's. We will protect our mother and our brothers and sisters."
Jiang Fenghua felt warm in his heart, "There are assassins outside, are you afraid?"
"Don't be afraid, father will come to save us." Xie Zixuan said.
Xie Hongyou also said: "Youyou is not afraid either. Youyou will protect the queen mother and sister."
Jiang Fenghua just hoped that Xie Shang would come soon. Hei Feng said that the palace was full of their people, and any movement in the palace should have reached Xie Shang's ears!
She prayed in her heart that nothing would happen. She had the weapons to protect herself, but these children were still so young.
At this moment, several children suddenly held their stomachs and cried out in pain.
"Mother, Xi'er is in pain too."
"Youyou is in pain too."
Jiang Fenghua said: "I was fine just now, how come I suddenly have a stomachache?"
She went to see Xie Hongyuan again, and for some reason, Xie Hongyuan also started crying loudly.
Xie Hongyuan was still too young to speak, so he pounded his stomach hard.
Lin Yu asked, "What did they eat last night?"
Lian Ye said: "It's just a normal meal. I made it myself."
No one could find the reason, so Jiang Fenghua turned his attention to the wet nurse.
The nurse was also very anxious. "I don't know why the prince and princess have stomachaches. I ate the meal last night and it didn't hurt! Miss Lin also ate, and Nanny Wang also ate. Does Miss Lin feel any pain?"
Lin Yu said: "It doesn't hurt."
Jiang Fenghua's eyes were full of coldness: "I don't think we saw Aunt Wang after we came back."
Lian Ye said, "She had dinner with the princes and princesses and then went to work."
Hongxiu said, "I didn't see her either."
Lin Yu also shook his head: "It seems that I didn't see Nanny Wang."
Several people's hearts were beating fast. They had been on high alert. Ever since the arson incident, Kunning Palace had been guarded with three layers of defense inside and outside, and they dared not let anyone get close.
Jiang Fenghua asked Xie Zixuan, "Did Aunt Wang give you anything to eat alone?"
Xie Zixuan was in so much pain that sweat broke out on her forehead, her cheeks turned pale, and her whole body curled up into a ball.
Xie Hongyou also felt pain, and he said, "Candy cake."
Jiang Fenghua thought about what Concubine Chang said. How could she have forgotten about this? "Go find Nanny Wang quickly."
-
In the servants' room, Nanny Xi was seen climbing up the window, holding the money box tightly and looking out. She was trembling all over, praying to God not to let the assassin in.
At this moment, Nanny Wang suddenly stood behind her and patted her shoulder. Nanny Xi was startled and asked, "Who patted me?"
Nanny Wang smiled and said, "It's me."
"Mammy Wang, it's you. You scared me. How come there are so many assassins in the palace? Why are your clothes all wet?" Mammy Xi quietly hid the money box in her arms.
Nanny Wang also pretended not to see it, "I don't know why there are so many assassins."
"Let's hide quickly. We can't stay in this palace anymore. People are going to die." She had to find a way to escape from the palace now that she had money. She would be in trouble if Queen Mother Cheng came back. Queen Mother Cheng was simply a crazy woman.
"Don't panic. The assassin won't kill us servants." Nanny Wang looked calm and unhurried.
Seeing how calm she was, Aunt Xi asked in confusion, "Aren't you afraid?"
"Of course I'm afraid. What's the point of being afraid? If I'm afraid, the assassins won't come to kill me?" Nanny Wang asked again, "What are you going back to the Cining Palace to get?"
Aunt Xi hid the money box inside and said, "Nothing."
"How did Nanny Wang know that I went back?" she said again.
Nanny Wang said, "Not only do I know this, Miss Lin Yu also knows this."
Aunt Xi saw a hint of coldness in her eyes, and she felt a little scared, "I... I'm just going to get my things back."
"what?"
Nanny Xi stepped aside and said, "Nanny Wang, you have been in the palace for so many years, you must have your own private money! It's just some private money."
Nanny Wang suddenly tried to grab the box from her hand, and saw that it was full of valuable jewelry. "These are the things of the Empress Dowager, right? How come they are in Nanny Xi's box?"
Nanny Xi stuttered, "I...I...we have been with the Queen Mother for so many years and have gained nothing. I will give you half, and you should just pretend you didn't see it. You are now a favorite of the Queen Mother, with power and money, but I have nothing. I should at least leave something for my old age!"
Nanny Wang closed the box and returned it to her. "I don't want it. Nanny Xi, take whatever you like! I've been in the palace for so many years, and Nanny Xi is my only friend. I almost forgot why I came to the palace."
"Ah!" Aunt Xi was stunned. "What's the purpose?"
Nanny Wang looked at the rain outside, as well as the assassins and guards fighting in the rain, and said calmly: "The only person I feel sorry for in this life is the Queen. I think I will see her again, but it's a pity that I will never see her again."
Nanny Xi was puzzled. "Isn't the Queen in the bedroom? With so many imperial guards and guards, the Queen will be fine."
Nanny Wang asked again, "Do you want to know where I went just now?"
"where did you go?"
"I went to see a man who was my former master."
"Ah!" Nanny Xi felt that it was dangerous. "What...what master, has the Queen Mother returned to the palace?"
Nanny Wang continued, "Do you still remember that time when we served Empress Dowager Cheng together? You gradually became her personal maid, and I gradually became a female official who taught etiquette in the palace. Our lives were very ordinary. Although we didn't have much money, we didn't need much money to live in the palace. It was very ordinary. I prided myself on being smart and calculating, but I never helped Empress Dowager Cheng once. Every time I saw her quarreling with the late emperor and going crazy, I thought that she would never be favored by the late emperor, and I just thought it was funny."
Nanny Xi felt like she was going crazy. Was there something wrong with her ears? Empress Dowager Cheng had always had a bad temper. What did it have to do with the palace maids that she and the late emperor were mad after quarreling? She had tried to persuade them, but they wouldn't listen!
"Later, I was sent to the Jiang Mansion to teach Queen Jiang. She was smart, studious and hardworking, and I suddenly found her very interesting." She changed the way she lived because of one person, and that person was Jiang Fenghua.
