Chapter 914 Isn’t it just a wet nurse?
Immediately afterwards, Xie Yang walked to the side of Concubine Chang. His eyes were as big as copper bells and his face looked extremely ugly, as if he wanted to eat someone. He clenched his fists tightly as if he was going to hit someone.
In the end, he still didn't do anything. He just said, "It's embarrassing." He directly pulled Concubine Chang out.
Concubine Chang said coldly: "Where does the Fourth Prince want to take me?"
Concubine Chang was pulled onto the deck. There were only two crisp "ding dong" sounds. The guards didn't react at first. It wasn't until the Fourth Prince jumped into Baihua Lake that they shouted, "The Fourth Prince has jumped into the lake."
Jiang Fenghua and others came out of the cabin and saw two black shadows flapping on the dark lake and gradually sinking into the water, as if they were about to die.
Xie Shang had not expected Xie Yang to do such a thing, and said coldly, "What are you all standing there for? Go down and save them!"
Lin Feng quickly asked those who could swim to jump into the lake, and the guards did not dare to delay. Fortunately, all other cruise ships on the lake had been dispersed, but it was too dark at night and they were in the middle of the lake, making search and rescue difficult.
Prince Kang and Princess Kang also came out. Princess Kang said sarcastically with a cold face: "Your Highness's childhood sweetheart jumped into the lake, and you didn't go to save her?"
Xie Kang's face was filled with black lines, and he stared at the lake intently. He was even a little nervous and said lightly: "This king can't swim."
No matter what, he and Chang Mingxiu were in love. He missed the past when she talked about their youth just now. Chang Mingxiu had always been a gentle and beautiful woman, and she had no choice but to enter the palace.
Just as Xie Kang was about to step forward, Princess Kang suddenly grabbed his arm and said, "Your Highness, be careful."
Princess Kang was accidentally pushed into the lake by them just now, and she also wanted to let Xie Kang experience what it felt like to fall into the lake, but before she could do anything, Xie Kang was on guard and avoided her.
Xie Kang really couldn't swim, and he didn't dare to go into the water.
Xie Yang could swim and was still conscious. He was dragged back to the deck in a mess and saw the emperor standing in front of him.
Xie Shang frowned and asked coldly, "What are you doing, Fourth Brother?"
Xie Yang's face was extremely ugly, and he looked very weak. His eyes were full of pain. "Your Majesty, why are you trying to save me? There is no point in me living now. It would be better for me to die with her and put an end to it all."
Xie Yang's eyes were filled with pleading, wanting the emperor to let his mother go. He felt very uncomfortable when he heard the crazy words his mother said. He was now under house arrest and had no power in his hands. He had become a waste.
Xie Shang ignored him, but a trace of heartache flashed in his eyes. Xie Yang was one of his few brothers with whom he had a better relationship. How could he let him die? Concubine Chang must have made him very miserable!
Xie Shang said in a deep voice, "I won't allow you to die, so you can't die. Live well for me."
Xie Yang paused, his voice as light as a mosquito: "My mother..."
At this time, Chang Mingxiu was also pulled up. She had been choked by water and fell unconscious. Her life or death was unknown.
Xie Yang crawled in front of her and burst into tears, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do that, I just couldn't control myself..." He didn't even dare to call her mother. Her identity being exposed would make the royal family lose face, and the emperor would definitely be angry, so only her death could completely solve this matter.
Jiang Fenghua said: "Aoxue, come and see how she is doing?"
Without waiting for Aoxue to check, Xie Shang walked directly to Concubine Chang, his eyes filled with disgust and he said coldly: "Since he is dead, just send him to the mass grave and bury him!"
Jiang Fenghua was stunned, and his lips moved several times as he wanted to speak. Wasn’t he going to save Concubine Chang?
I saw Concubine Chang lying on the deck like a dead fish, her eyes closed and her face blue and purple, she really looked like she was dead.
Chang Mingxiu is a very smart person. Why did she go crazy today and even risk her own life?
Jiang Fenghua looked at it for such a long time but still couldn't see it clearly or figure it out.
The Fourth Prince suddenly pushed Concubine Chang to jump into the lake, and he jumped in after her. Did he want to die with his mother?
The Fourth Prince was shivering with cold. He knelt beside the Emperor in agony and said, "Your Majesty, please let me take care of the wet nurse's body. She served me wholeheartedly all these years. Even if she didn't have any merit, she worked hard. Please at least build a grave for her!"
When the news of the Fourth Prince's rebellion first came out, although the incident did not become a big deal and did not cause much stir in the court or Shengjing City, Concubine Chang in the deep palace was bound to be implicated.
If Concubine Chang's affair had not been exposed, she should have been secretly executed long ago.
Xie Yang thought clearly that the emperor would not let a woman who betrayed the late emperor live. It would be better for her to die than to be in such a miserable state.
Xie Shang pondered for a moment without saying anything. The only reason Concubine Chang was still alive was because she was still useful.
Xie Shang said, "Take it back and bury it!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xie Yang kowtowed repeatedly.
The incident happened too suddenly. Princess Kang did not expect that the Fourth Prince would suddenly drag a wet nurse into the lake. It seemed that the Fourth Prince was too excited?
She asked doubtfully, "Why would the Fourth Prince treat a wet nurse like this?"
The Fourth Prince also hated it and said in a cold voice: "The wet nurse has done a great favor to the little prince. She was deceived and became mentally ill and unable to recognize the reality. Aunt Kang Wang doesn't need to speak so sarcasticly."
"Hmph! She deserves this." Princess Kang cursed coldly, "She deserves to die."
Xie Yang stood up and stared at Princess Kang fiercely, "It's not Princess Kang's decision whether she should die or not. You have no right to curse her."
Princess Kang was stunned. "What did I say? I just asked her how she knew Xie Kang. It was you who dragged her into the lake. What does this have to do with me? She seduced someone else's husband and she's right.
It's better for her to die, so she won't have to do anything. And why is the Fourth Prince so excited? Isn't she just a wet nurse? "
Xie Shang's eyes were filled with anger, and he said in a deep voice, "Let's get off the boat first! Stop arguing."
Jiang Fenghua looked at the body of Concubine Chang. Was the life that was so vibrant just now gone just like that?
She looked at Xie Kang, and saw a hint of forbearance in his eyes. A woman who had loved him for decades died in front of him. She didn't know how he felt.
Is Prince Kang really so heartless and ungrateful? Chang Mingxiu has been in the palace for so many years, she must have passed on various information to him, and she was considered a spy he left in the palace. Regardless of whether Concubine Chang was really dead or pretending to be dead, did Prince Kang really have no reaction at all?
As the boat docked, everyone disembarked. Jiang Fenghua walked over to Xie Shang and whispered, "I wonder if the Fourth Prince wants to be free or if Concubine Chang wants to throw the can down the drain."
Xie Shang glanced at Jiang Fenghua, then glanced at Concubine Chang who was being carried away.
"Wait a minute." Xie Shang suddenly shouted.
Xie Shang stared at Concubine Chang again and again, then looked at Xie Yang, only to see his expression suddenly become nervous. "Your Majesty."
Xie Shang said calmly, "She has been very kind to Fourth Brother in raising her. Take her back and bury her properly!"
Xie Yang nodded, "Yes."
Xie Shang watched them leave, and saw that Prince Kang was staring at the direction where Concubine Chang left, as if he was thinking about something.
