Chapter 1294 Great Elder Princess Venture Her Fortune on a Single Move


Ruiping Great Elder Princess knelt on the ground for a long time. Her legs went numb, and her forehead was dripping sweat. But even so, she still gritted her teeth and endured it. She had to stick at it. Many people in her mansion were nervously waiting for the Emperor’s order.


She hated her granddaughter, Infanta Yuan’an. If she had known she was such a disappointing granddaughter, she would not have tried her best to promote her.


Except for Infanta Yuan’an, she had a lot of grandsons and granddaughters. She was reluctant to sacrifice everyone for her. But now, she could do nothing but scold Infanta Yuan’an for being a useless idiot.


Infanta Yuan’an was her eldest legitimate granddaughter, the most steady one. Therefore, she entered the Palace and asked for a reward for her. That was how Infanta Yuan’an got her title. By improving her status, Ruiping Great Elder Princess intended to let her marry the crown prince of the Eastern Palace in the future. However, it was a pity that the Emperor had not appointed a crown prince yet. In the end, she could only choose Prince Zhou.


The position of the Empress was relatively secure, and Prince Zhou was most likely to be the crown prince.


Unexpectedly, Prince Zhou was imprisoned overnight. From then on, he could never be the crown prince. Instead, he became an imprisoned criminal who could only keep his life.


Infanta Yuan’an got herself into trouble overnight and implicated her grandma. Ruiping Great Elder Princess was overcome with regret. Now she was forced to save herself.


A young palace maid sneaked over and seemed to pass by. But when she walked past Ruiping Great Elder Princess, she whispered, “She will come in two hours!”


Ruiping Great Elder Princess could hardly hold on. Instantly, this short sentence lifted her spirits. She let out a long breath with a trace of sharpness across her eyes. How could she not be arrogant as a noble Great Elder Princess? When cornered, she would not let others have an easy time.


Infanta Yuan’an fell into such a miserable situation because of her deficient plan and Shao Wanru. Without Shao Wanru, Yuan’an wouldn’t have been like this.


Ruiping Great Elder Princess clenched her teeth in bitter hatred. Lowering her head, she carefully took out a pill from the pocket in her sleeve and swallowed it. The pill needed some time to take effect, and its impact should last about four hours. She was no longer in a hurry now, for she had to wait for Shao Wanru to come over.


With sweat dripping from her face, she became overly frail now. She looked up at the Imperial Study glittering with gold in the sunlight before her. Everything seemed to be in the clouds, and she was falling from the clouds. When Shao Wanru arrived, Ruiping Great Elder Princess thought she could first ask her for a glass of water.


Even if it was not Shao Wanru, she could let Shao Wanru’s servant girl do it. Then if something happened to her, it would be Shao Wanru’s problem. As long as she calculated the time correctly, she would not die, and no misfortune would happen to her mansion.


She was waiting… waiting for Shao Wanru to come.


Since her legs were numb, she could feel nothing but the dull pain. However, no more news came from the Imperial Study. The Emperor seemed to have determined not to forgive her. The corners of her eyes trembled slightly, but Ruiping Great Elder Princess calmly accepted the consequences. At present, her main task was to wait for Shao Wanru.


But it had been a long time. Why hadn’t Shao Wanru come yet? Ruiping Great Elder Princess raised her numb head and looked behind her. Every once in a while, she would check if Shao Wanru was coming. But until now, she couldn’t see her anywhere. Hardly could she hang on there any longer.


A few blurry figures flashed across the corners of her eyes. It seemed that someone in the Palace was coming. But Ruiping Great Elder Princess didn’t know if it was Shao Wanru. All of a sudden, a trace of enlightenment flashed in her eyes. “What if Shao Wanru chooses not to come?”


As this idea came across her mind, Ruiping Great Elder Princess blacked out and collapsed. Hearing someone cry in fear near her, she wanted to open her eyes but failed to lift her heavy eyelids…


“Ruiping Great Elder Princess had an accident?” Shao Wanru remained calm when receiving the news, slightly rolling her watery but indifferent eyes.


She would never be soft-hearted and feel sorry for those who framed her.


These people had to bear the consequences of their evil deeds.


“She was said to be poisoned!” Chu Liuchen said carelessly. He brought the news to her. Taking the towel handed over by Xiao Xuanzi, he wiped his face and threw it back to him.


Xiao Xuanzi and the other servant girls left.


“You got the news in the Empress Dowager’s place?” Shao Wanru said with a smile. Because she was lying in bed, she let her hair down. Against her dark hair, her little face appeared as white as snow and her rosy lips bewitching. What a beauty of considerable charm!


Chu Liuchen walked over, picked her up with the quilt, and moved her inside. Then he strode forward and lazily leaned against Shao Wanru.


“How is Nanny Wei?” Shao Wanru asked with a cold smile. She would have had to take the blame if she had gone there.


“Nanny Wei wanted to leave but had to stay to serve my Imperial Grandmother,” Chu Liuchen smiled. With tenderness, he touched Shao Wanru’s head and his forehead. When he ensured that Shao Wanru’s forehead temperature was normal, he smiled with satisfaction. Back then, what happened to Nanny Wei in the mansion was immediately reported to him.


As soon as Nanny Wei arrived at Empress Dowager’s place, she was so occupied with tasks assigned by Chu Liuchen that she had no time to go out.


“Why would Imperial Grandmother ask me to plead for Ruiping Great Elder Princess?” Shao Wanru came closer and took the initiative to lean on his outstretched arms. She raised her watery eyes, which were instantly filled with Chu Liuchen’s figure.


Her eyes looked clear and pure!


“She heard you were fine and could get up. Besides, Uncle the Emperor hadn’t yet made the final decision. It was said that you were seriously injured and almost had a severe accident, so he must punish Ruiping Great Elder Princess. Imperial Grandmother knew you were fine, and Ruiping Great Elder Princess begged her in tears. Thus, she asked you to go there and help to plead for mercy. What happened to Infanta Yuan’an had nothing to do with Ruiping Great Elder Princess.”


Chu Liuchen sarcastically raised the corners of his mouth but didn’t want Shao Wanru to see his malicious and insidious eyes.


Ruiping Great Elder Princess might not have participated in the scheme, but that was clearly not the case now. How dare she plot against Zhuozhuo with her life? Then, he would no longer show mercy to the Ruiping Great Elder Princess’ Mansion.


Shao Wanru didn’t see the darkness in his eyes. She just played with the warm jade hanging on his waist and rubbed against it with her fingers, saying, “Who spread the news to the Empress Dowager? Nanny Wei?”


“She was not alone in this.” Chu Liuchen shook his head. “Sometimes, Imperial Grandmother would follow Nanny Wei’s advice. But she would not be so obedient. There must be someone else.”


“When I get better, I’ll see her in the Palace!” Shao Wanru held his jade pendant and said. It was not good for Chu Liuchen to interfere too much in the things of the Palace, especially those about the imperial harem. Moreover, Chu Liuchen had to deal with these external affairs when the Emperor was seriously ill. At this time, he could not make any mistakes.


After saying that, she cutely pulled at his jade pendant, not wanting to be refused.


Chu Liuchen looked down at her adorable appearance, and his heart softened. He lowered his head and gently kissed her on the forehead. “Okay, it’s up to you, but you must stay safe. If you can’t guarantee that, I won’t let you go to the Palace and will keep you in the mansion. I will deal with everything outside.”


“I’ll be careful. See? I’ve been wearing the bracelet you gave me all the time. There are Qiu’er and Dong’er. I’ll take them with me when I go out!” Shao Wanru blinked her liquid eyes and said, looking at him expectantly. She shook the bracelet around her wrist and casually showed Chu Liuchen the sapphire on it, reminding him this bracelet was different from ordinary ones.


Chu Liuchen couldn’t help laughing and nodded helplessly. He knew she had always been stubborn and intelligent. She went this far because of his support behind the scenes and her efforts. Therefore, he must have faith in her.


“If you meet any tricky problem, don’t force yourself to do anything. I’m with you all the way! I can do anything for you!” Though he thought so in his heart, Chu Liuchen was still worried and couldn’t help reminding her. He reached out and hugged her tightly. “Take care of yourself first. Don’t worry about anything else.”


“I know!” Shao Wanru obediently buried herself in his arms and nodded in agreement.


Chu Liuchen gently patted her on the back and coaxed her into napping. Qiu’er, who had been serving her, said that Shao Wanru had not slept well since Nanny Wei came over. She had been lying in bed and brooding over things.


He deftly patted Shao Wanru’s back with appropriate strength to put her to sleep. He did an excellent job because he had done this many times. His long eyelashes lowered as he quietly looked down at the meek, mild woman in his arms. She was his only wife, the priceless treasure in his heart. How audacious were those people to hurt her? Suddenly, his eyes turned dark and bloodthirsty. Essentially, he was still his old self in darkness…


Ruiping Great Elder Princess suddenly fainted and was carried straight to the Imperial Institute of Medicine. Seeing her appearance, doctors immediately concluded that Ruiping Great Elder Princess had been poisoned!


She had been fine when kneeling there. How could she suddenly be poisoned? It didn’t seem Ruiping Great Elder Princess was poisoned when she left the mansion. She had knelt before the Imperial Study for a few hours. She couldn’t have been poisoned when she came out of the mansion. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have knelt with the poison in her body for such a long time.


Then who had come into contact with Ruiping Great Elder Princess in this process?


All the people who passed by Ruiping Great Elder Princess were investigated, but whatever method was used, it was unknown who poisoned Ruiping Great Elder Princess when she knelt there.


Ruiping Great Elder Princess was in a delicate condition. She was in a coma, and the imperial physician had detoxified her. Because it was a slow poison, her life was left at the mercy of fate.


A Great Elder Princess was poisoned in the Palace. The news made everyone in the Palace uneasy. If Ruiping Great Elder Princess could be poisoned, others might also be poisoned silently without them noticing it. Thinking of this, all the people in the imperial Palace panicked. Many masters became very cautious and did not dare to eat the food sent from the imperial kitchen for fear of being poisoned…


In the evening, a figure sneaked out of the Palace of Benevolent Peace and got into an empty palace like a thief in the night…
