Chapter 1456: Xiao Jingrui's Past
"Stop!" The eighth prince shouted loudly.
No one listened to him and continued to kick him.
"If you don't stop, I'll go and tell Imperial Father!"When the Eighth Prince saw that his brothers did not stop, he immediately became anxious.
These people finally stopped.
However, the Third Prince questioned angrily," Eighth Brother, why did you save him? Don't you know that he was born to a lowly palace maid? With him around, we all feel insulted!"
Whether it was before or after their mother was married, her status was very n.o.ble.
The Eighth Prince was puzzled." Imperial Brothers, so what if Second Imperial Brother's mother is a lowly palace maid? But Second Brother is also the son of Imperial Father."
Everyone was speechless.
After hearing the Eighth Prince's words, everyone was afraid that if they continued, they would cause trouble, so they all left.
Then, the Eighth Prince stretched out his small hand and said," Second Imperial Brother, are you alright?" Then, he instructed the eunuch who was looking after him," Little Li, go and find a doctor to take a look at Second Imperial Brother!"
When Eunuch Li heard this, he immediately panicked and said," Aiyo, my prince, you've saved the Second Prince, and you've probably already made the Empress very unhappy. If you hire a doctor for him, the Empress will be furious. Little prince, at least think about your mother!"
After all, the Eighth Prince was only a four or five-year-old child. He did not quite understand what the little eunuch meant." Little Li, I saved Second Imperial Brother. How did I make Mother unhappy? Also, what does this have to do with my Imperial Mother?"
Little Li looked around and saw that there was no one around. He begged softly," Little prince, let's leave quickly! Since you have already saved him, I believe that the other princes will not come over. The Second Prince is only suffering from superficial injuries, so he should be fine. Let's leave quickly!"
With that, he dragged the Eighth Prince away.
From then on, he remembered this cute little brother of his.
From then on, he would save him from other people from time to time and secretly give him some medicine or secretly come over to play with him.
The days when he had his little brother to play with him were the happiest times of his life.
But one day, his little brother didn't come, and he didn't come for a single day after that.
He was very disappointed and sad. He hid in a corner and felt sad.
"Could it be that my eighth brother hates me like everyone else?"
"Otherwise, why didn't you come to play with me after so long?"
"Ai, this Consort Ming Fei is really something else!"
Ming Fei?
Wasn't Consort Ming the consort mother of the Eighth Prince?
What about Ming Fei?
Hiding in a corner, he heard people mention Consort Ming Fei, and many questions flashed through his mind.
"Yeah! She was doted on by the Emperor in the palace. She was neither arrogant nor impatient, and she was kind and good to these servants. However, why would she commit adultery with another man?"
"Shh!" A young eunuch at the side immediately said warily," Lower your voice. Be careful that the walls have ears!"
The other two immediately looked around. When they saw that there was no one around, they continued," I heard that Consort Ming Fei was wronged."
"Wronged?" The other two people immediately asked curiously," Who is the one who wronged Consort Ming Fei?"
"Who do you think in the Imperial Palace would have the guts to frame the Consort Ming Fei?"
The others immediately reacted." You mean the Empress?"
"Although Consort Ming Fei is favoured by His Majesty, she is also very respectful to the Empress! Why did the Empress wrong her?"
"Tsk, you don't know this, do you? It was because Consort Ming Fei was favoured that the Empress was unhappy!
"Also, I heard that it was because the Eighth Prince often helped the Second Prince and did not put the Empress in his eyes. That's why the Empress was angry and framed Consort Ming Fei!"
"Sigh, speaking of the eighth prince, he was found drowned in the Sun Moon Lake a few days ago. It was too late, and his entire body was swollen. It was a pity. The Eighth Prince was so cute."
"The eighth prince drowned. Some people say that the eighth prince was so depressed that he fell to the bottom of the lake because his mother was found out to have committed adultery."
"Tsk, this Eighth Prince is so young, and it's late at night. How could no one look after him?"
"So, you're saying that it's very likely that someone pushed the Eighth Prince into the lake on purpose?"
"I didn't say that!"
