Chapter 815 - Chapter 815 Chapter 815 Please Punish the Consort
Chapter 815: Chapter 815: Please Punish the Consort Chapter 815: Chapter 815: Please Punish the Consort Bow your head.
Su Yunjin noticed that the Consort of Prince Rui had slowly walked over, and because she was bowing her head, Yunjin saw that the Consort’s palace shoes seemed rather difficult to walk in.
In addition, the Consort’s dress was complex in style and had an extremely long hem. Being pregnant, it was really inconvenient for the Consort to wear such clothes and shoes to walk about.
“Be careful!”
“Your Highness!”
Hearing two cries of alarm, Su Yunjin subconsciously raised her head, only to see that the Consort of Prince Rui seemed to have slipped inadvertently, her whole body tilting backward as she fell.
The palace attendants were already petrified.
This was the Consort of Prince Rui! She was not only the official wife of the current Emperor’s brother, Prince Rui, but also the bona fide daughter-in-law to the Empress Dowager. The Consort of Prince Rui’s status was not only extremely distinguished,
but her family also wielded great power.
Her father was the Great General, and several of her brothers held important positions in the Imperial Court. If anything were to happen to the Consort or her unborn child, these palace attendants’ heads would not be enough to atone for the disaster.
Upon witnessing the Consort’s fall, everyone, as if frozen, had been so frightened that they were beside themselves. Having seen the consort fall, Su Yunjin didn’t think much and quickly moved forward to rescue her.
Just when the Consort thought she would fall and could not save her unborn child, she suddenly felt a hand grab her, barely steadying her body. Still unsettled, the Consort turned subconsciously and saw Su Yunjin, who had timely reached out to save her and her unborn child.
“Your Highness, are you alright?” Su Yunjin tentatively asked.
Having regained her composure,
The Consort looked at Su Yunjin with gratitude and shook her head, “If it weren’t for you just now, I’m afraid both the child in my womb and I would have been in grave danger.”
Seeing that the Consort was fine,
the previously shocked palace attendants also heaved a sigh of relief. Thank heavens, thank heavens, fortunately, neither the child in the Consort’s womb nor the Consort herself were harmed.
Otherwise, if something had gone wrong with the Consort and the Little Prince inside her, all these servants attending her would not escape their fate.
The penalty would range from being sold off to execution by the cane.
“Your Highness, please punish us for not taking proper care of you,” they pleaded.
“Your Highness, please punish your unworthy servants,” the eunuchs and palace maids alike knelt down and begged for the Consort’s forgiveness. Today was the birthday celebration of Prince Qi Residence’s Dowager Consort, and since both the Consort and her child were unharmed,
the Consort did not want to cause a commotion at Prince Qi Residence.
“Enough! Everyone get up! Since neither I nor the child were harmed, let’s put this incident behind us! I won’t pursue the matter further,” she said slowly.
The Consort once again looked towards Su Yunjin, “Madam, may I inquire your last name?”
