Chapter 125: Eternal disaster
At the same time, in another dimly lit room, the sound of conversation could be heard faintly.
"Mammy, you have been in the palace for many years and have seen countless people. Naturally, you have a sharp eye."
"Take off her clothes and examine her carefully."
"With such beauty, which important person will she serve? She is so lucky."
Su Rao's consciousness wavered between confusion and clarity. She could feel someone groping her and even trying to open her clothes.
She was startled, realizing that this might be a test of her virginity.
Su Rao bit her tongue hard, the severe pain made her sober instantly, and she quickly sorted out everything that had happened in her mind: the princess's tea, the sudden urge to urinate, and the coma at this moment...
Putting these clues together, a terrifying guess emerged in her mind - could it be that all this was planned by the Princess of Qi?
Is the gentle and virtuous princess in my memory really as kind as she appears?
As the spouse of the King of Qi, she would definitely safeguard the interests of the King of Qi at the critical moment.
The human heart is unpredictable, who can truly understand the princess's mind?
Thinking back to Lingkong Temple, Prince Qi's suspicion of her and his questioning of Prince Yi on whether he had violated the rules, were all these just to verify the question about her relationship with Prince Yi?
If it is confirmed that she is still a virgin, it means that she has deceived the queen and the emperor, which is a serious crime!
Even if the crime was not punishable by death, the Queen's wrath was enough to put her life on the line.
Prince Yi will also fall into a great crisis because of this. The Emperor may be disappointed or under pressure from court officials and may directly appoint Prince Qi as the crown prince!
Su Rao would never allow such a thing to happen!
She used all her strength to tightly grasp the belt around her waist. Her beautiful eyes flashed with determination as she stared at everyone in the room: "What exactly do you want to do?"
In addition to the palace maid, there were two elderly maids in the room with serious faces.
"You woke up so soon?"
The maid seemed a little surprised, and then ordered the two maids, "Quick, subdue her and take off her clothes!"
One nanny quickly stepped forward and held Su Rao down, while the other reached out to untie her belt. Su Rao seemed like a prey caught in a trap, with nowhere to escape.
However, at the critical moment, Su Rao used her remaining willpower, suddenly pulled out a delicate jade hairpin from her hair, grabbed the palace maid tightly, and pressed the sharp tip of the hairpin against the palace maid's carotid artery.
Although her movements were hasty, they were calm and decisive.
Although the two maids are old, their strength should not be underestimated. In comparison, the palace maids appear more fragile.
Although Su Rao knew a little about the art of self-protection, it was still difficult in a one-on-one situation, let alone one-on-two.
Therefore, she chose the seemingly weakest link as the breakthrough point, and it turned out that her choice was correct.
"If you come one step closer, she will die!" Su Rao's voice was as cold as ice and full of warning.
The two maids were shocked by this sudden change and were at a loss for a moment, and the palace maid's face turned pale in an instant.
"How dare you touch me? Do you know who I belong to?" Although the palace maid spoke firmly, she could not hide the fear in her tone.
Su Rao increased the strength in her hands a little more, and a blood mark suddenly appeared on the palace maid's neck. The pain almost suffocated her.
"If you take one more step, your life will end here." Su Rao's voice was cold and firm, leaving no room for compromise.
The situation was extremely tense, and the direction of the entire incident was hanging by a thread...
The palace maid's momentum collapsed in an instant, as if all her strength was drained away. Her face lost all color, leaving only the unconcealable, deep fear of the impending end.
……
On the other side of the scene, time slipped silently from the fingertips, and every tick increased Su Yi's uneasiness.
Her heartbeat began to speed up, and an indescribable worry spread in her chest.
Even the worst diarrhea would not make a person disappear for so long. Su Yi's thoughts were in a mess, and all kinds of ominous premonitions were lingering in his heart.
Su Rao, the sister who is always carefree and unconcerned about details, could it be that something unexpected has really happened to her?
Thinking of this, Su Yi suddenly jumped up from her seat and said firmly: "Princess Qi, I have to go find my fourth sister. She may be lost. You know, she is always so careless..."
Even in the face of Princess Qi's dissuasion, her eyes revealed an unshakable determination and she vowed to find out the truth herself!
Princess Qi quickly calculated in her mind that according to the plan, the people she arranged should have taken action.
A barely perceptible sneer flashed across her lips, and she decided to go and inspect the results in person.
"I also think something is wrong. Let's go look for him together." Princess Qi pretended to be anxious, stood up and followed, but she had other plans in mind.
The two walked towards the toilet. As soon as they stepped into a small courtyard, a staggering figure suddenly threw himself into Su Yi's arms.
Su Yi subconsciously caught it steadily. When she saw Su Rao's miserable appearance, her heart suddenly shrank: "Rao'er, what happened?"
When Su Rao saw her sister, she felt like she had found a safe haven, and her nervousness eased a little.
"Sister, I was almost captured by the bad guys just now..."
Su Yi looked up and saw three figures following closely behind him, two elderly maids and a palace maid with blood still oozing from her neck.
When the three men saw Su Yi and Princess Qi, they realized that their plan had failed. Their faces turned pale in an instant and they became panic-stricken.
The Princess of Qi's eyes were sharp, and her usually gentle face now revealed a hint of ferocity.
She saw the palace maid's fear at a glance, and immediately realized that her plan had failed. A rage burned in her chest, but she remained calm on the surface.
Princess Qi pretended to be panicked and shouted loudly: "Come quickly, take these villains down for me!"
In a moment, several guards responded and quickly subdued the three men.
"Take them away and punish them severely!"
Princess Qi turned around and asked Su Rao with a gentle look, "Concubine Su, are you okay?"
Su Rao sneered in her heart. These three people were obviously the work of Princess Qi. But she remained calm on the surface and just shook her head slightly: "Maybe I accidentally offended someone, and they wanted to teach me a lesson. Fortunately, I escaped."
Then, she gently tugged at Su Yi's sleeve, motioning for her to leave.
Su Yi exchanged a few words with Princess Qi, then hurried away with Su Rao.
Princess Qi watched their backs going further and further away, and the expression on her face gradually froze, becoming complex and difficult to discern.
……
"Snapped!"
A loud slap broke the silence in the room. The King of Qi mercilessly slapped the Princess of Qi in the face: "You are such a loser. You can't even handle such a small matter!"
After much investigation, the King of Qi could almost conclude that Su Rao had never had any physical contact with the King of Yi.
As long as Su Rao's innocence is proven, all arrangements will be settled and Prince Yi will face an irretrievable situation.
