Chapter 953: Chapter 808, Falling from the Building_3
Daohua smiled and shook her head, "Prince, you’re too kind, he is my nephew after all." She said, as she patted the little boy’s head, "Rengreng is so brave, not even crying over all this."
At that moment, another person rushed over.
The wife of the fourth Prince hugged the little boy tightly, her face a mix of sheer relief and surviving a close call. After confirming her son was fine, she finally collapsed to the ground with shaky legs, holding her son and both crying and laughing.
Soon, the Prince and others arrived.
"Is everyone alright?"
The fourth Prince shook his head, "Thanks to my sister-in-law’s rescue, Rengreng wasn’t injured, just a bit frightened."
Xiao Yeyang, "Uncle Emperor, Yiyi has hurt her shoulder, I need to take her back to apply some medicine."
The Emperor nodded, "All of you go back, and call the Imperial Physician, get a thorough examination." After saying this, he turned to look at the women behind him with a cold gaze in his eyes.
Xiao Yeyang didn’t pay attention to these details, knowing the Emperor was just asking around, with so many people on the scene, it was impossible to get to the bottom of the incident. He simply picked up Daohua and left.
As they were leaving, Daohua looked back and saw the wife of the third Prince among the women, her expression calm as usual, which puzzled her deeply.
Why would she push me?
And was the oldest son of the fourth Prince being thrown down from the building also her doing?
To make a move on a child just over three years old and then act as if nothing had happened, this person... is too terrifying!
On the way back to the Prince Residence, Xiao Yeyang’s face was grim the entire time.
Daohua knew he was upset with her for meddling and for putting herself in danger, but she really couldn’t just watch a child being thrown down from a building and do nothing.
Moreover, her intuition told her that today’s incident was targeted not just at the fourth Prince but also at her.
Leaning against Xiao Yeyang, Daohua fiddled with the scent pouch at his waist, recalling the events that just unfolded, "Someone pushed me just now, it was the wife of the third Prince. Although I didn’t bump into the wife of the fourth Prince, my stumble coincided with the nanny throwing Rengreng down the building."
"If this was seen by others, and had Rengreng really gotten hurt, I would definitely be implicated."
Hearing this, Xiao Yeyang’s brow immediately furrowed, "The wife of the third Prince?"
Daohua nodded affirmatively, "It was her for sure, even though she was behind me, I saw the rose embroidered on her sleeve." She said, looking puzzled.
"Xiao Yeyang, do you think the third Prince is aiming at the fourth Prince?"
Xiao Yeyang remained silent, not speaking.
Daohua continued, "But why? Even if the third Prince wants to vie for the throne, he should be targeting the Crown Prince, the second Prince, the fifth Prince... The fourth Prince has an ear disease and is already out of the running for the throne. I really can’t understand why they would target a child?"
"Also, aren’t they being too impatient? The body of Uncle Emperor looks very healthy; living another two or three decades wouldn’t be a problem. They’re starting to fight over it now, what’s the point?"
Xiao Yeyang finally spoke, "The third Prince isn’t that stupid. This matter isn’t that simple. The wife of the third Prince might have sensed that someone was after Rengreng, and thus took the opportunity to involve you."
Daohua, "Why involve me? I have never offended the wife of the third Prince."
Xiao Yeyang, "In the Imperial Palace, as long as you stand in the way of someone else’s interests, even if you did nothing, being resented is common. Have you forgotten that the third Prince was given a cold shoulder by Uncle Emperor for several months because of our relationship?"
Daohua fell silent, "Out of nowhere, trouble falls from the sky." Then she asked, "Who is targeting the son of the fourth Prince?"
Xiao Yeyang was silent for a moment, "Someone doesn’t want Uncle Emperor to have peace of mind."
Daohua widened her eyes, "Hm?"
Xiao Yeyang, "...Those who dare to lay hands on the Prince and his grandchildren, when you get down to it, there are only a few suspects. Think about it, on the New Year’s Eve when the family should be together celebrating, if Uncle Emperor lost a grandson, imagine how distressing that would be."
Daohua suddenly understood whom Xiao Yeyang was implying and gasped with her mouth slightly open, "They’re that audacious?"
Xiao Yeyang let out a sarcastic chuckle, "I’ve heard that my imperial grandfather died of poisoning. If the Emperor himself could be killed, then what’s a mere grandchild?"
"Choosing the son of the fourth Prince is also preying on the fact that the fourth Prince lacks powerful support, and because he isn’t particularly favored by Uncle Emperor, even if his son died, it wouldn’t cause much of an uproar."
Daohua shivered, "The Imperial Palace is so scary!"
Xiao Yeyang, "It’s the human heart that’s truly terrifying." He looked seriously at Daohua, "If I’m not by your side in the future, try not to enter the palace if you can avoid it. If you can’t avoid it, be careful at all times. I’ve found that... the Empress Dowager and the Jiang Family have gone mad."
Daohua looked at Xiao Yeyang in a daze, "What are they planning to do?"
Seeing the worry in Daohua’s eyes, Xiao Yeyang smiled reassuringly, "Don’t worry, Uncle Emperor has his arrangements; everything will be fine."
