Chapter 726: Angry
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“That d*mned old woman!” Consort Yi was so angry that she turned around and kicked the foolish secret guard on the ground.
It was all this fool’s fault. It had been so long, but not only was he not cured, he had become even more foolish!
If he had been cured, she would have known Emperor Shu’s whereabouts long ago!
Now, that damned old woman was not in the palace, but around the area they were looking at as well!
She was reasonably furious!
Naturally, she used all her strength to kick the guard.
However, the foolish guard was so foolish that he naturally did not know how to dodge. He was immediately kicked and his head hit the wall beside him with a bang.
Almost instantly, his head bled.
“W-why!” Ji Qiwei was shocked.
Consort Yi was also shocked with the outcome. She only needed an outlet to lash out. Usually, when she was angry, she would either smash things or kick people, hit them, or pinch them. She wouldn’t spoil things, would she? He couldn’t be dead, right?
Marquis Ji was just as shocked, but he was someone who had lived for decades and was used to seeing big storms. His first reaction was to call for a doctor. He bent down and reached his hand under the guard’s nose. Then, he heaved a sigh of relief. “Fortunately, he’s still breathing.” Then, he looked at Consort Yi with a reproachful look. “Can’t you control your temper? What if he died? What if he recovers after a while and then we get to know where the Crown Prince
“Father, I’m sure she didn’t do it on purpose,” Ji Qiwei quickly said with a smile.
As soon as he finished speaking, the doctor came in and quickly treated the wound on his head. He applied medicine and wrapped him in many layers of gauze. Then he prescribed some medicine for the fool to drink.
Ji Qiwei quickly got someone to get some medicine and make it for this foolish secret guard.
The fool passed out from the impact of hitting the wall so he was still unconscious. Seeing that the doctor had left, Ji Qiwei had someone change the cell for the fool’s secret guard and carried him in.
The dungeon was filled with their people, so Ji Qiwei didn’t avoid anyone. He said, “Father, the Empress Dowager is not in the palace again and is walking around. I can see why she would be mad and kick the fool. I would be just the same in her shoes.”
Marquis Ji’s expression was solemn. After a long time, he looked at his daughter and asked, “How can you not know that she isn’t in the palace? Why were you only informed now?”
“No one is allowed to enter her bedroom. How would I know if she’s there or not?” Consort Yi was still in shock.
“Since she’s there, she must be looking for the Crown Prince as well.” Marquis Ji nodded. “I didn’t expect her to know that the Crown Prince might be there. It should have been someone from the Shao family who told her. Isn’t Shao Zhongxi also on that line?”
“Father, we should kill her while she’s outside since we know where she is.’ Consort Yi said.
“Foolish child!” Marquis Ji said. “Didn’t I tell you before? The Empress Dowager is only protecting the orthodoxy. When your son is made Crown Prince, he will also be the orthodoxy. The Empress Dowager will naturally protect him. At that time, with the Empress Dowager’s great help, whoever objects to your son inheriting the throne will be going against the Empress Dowager!”
“Yes, Father’s right.” Ji Qiwei agreed.
Consort Yi had never liked the Empress Dowager, but she thought that it might be like this in the future, so she endured it and nodded. “I’ll keep to my best behavior.”
“The most important thing now is to find and kill Emperor Shu before the Empress Dowager and the Shao family finds him!” Marquis Ji said.
Consort Yi and Ji Qiwei nodded in agreement..
