Chapter 1469: Fine Then!
“Her, it was her! She pushed me!” Xu Mingzhu showed a triumphant expression.
Everyone turned to look at where she was pointing. Subsequently, they caught sight of the young crown prince consort glancing around left and right and even scooting over to the side.
Duan Yue, Situ Yi, and them couldn’t help but twitch their mouths.
Xu Mingzhu’s finger was pointing straight at the young crown prince consort. There was no mistake about it.
Yet it couldn’t be helped that the little fellow seemed unable to comprehend this fact at all. She even looked around in confusion and innocently dodged to the side seeing that someone else was pointing in her direction…
Her expression of “you’re pointing in the wrong direction” simply tickled them.
Xu Mingzhu couldn’t help but get furious and kowtowed to Queen Zhao as tears stained her face charmingly, “This subject beseeches Your Majesty to take charge for me. It was her, it was the crown prince consort, the crown prince consort was the one who pushed me! Wuwu.”
“As the words of the lowly carry little weight, will Your Majesty please take charge for this subject.”
“I didn’t push you.” The young crown prince consort wasn’t a fool. Could she not have any reason to speak up when the other party had already identified her?
Besides, she certainly wouldn’t admit to anything she didn’t do!
“You were the one who pushed me! How would this subject be unaware of who had pushed me??” Xu Mingzhu was harboring resentment in her heart.
This crown prince consort was actually afraid of owning up to what she did? Wasn’t she supposed to be exceedingly fearless! Why was she acting like a coward now?
However, the young crown prince consort was now angry, and a harsh glint flashed through her eyes. “Who would be so idle as to push you? Since you stuck your leg out in front of me, who would I step on if not you??”
Next to her, Haitang bobbed her head as she corroborated earnestly, “That is correct. This servant can serve as the crown prince consort’s witness. This young lady was not walking too properly and extended her leg in front of the crown prince consort. The crown prince consort only stepped on her foot to keep going!”
Everyone: “…”
Xu Mingzhu abruptly burst into wails as she kowtowed repeatedly in front of Queen Zhao, shouting, “Your Majesty, will Your Majesty exercise your penetrating judgment! The crown prince consort has admitted that she had pushed me! It was not stepping. She had pushed me! Pushed me. How could I not have been walking properly! It is only natural for her personal servant to be on her side! Your Majesty…”
Queen Zhao only felt her head hurting as she turned to look at the young crown prince consort. She massaged her throbbing temples and started to regret her decision.
Should she… not have called for the crown prince consort to participate in this time’s event?
She still remembered how the royal concubines looked like they had eaten a fly when she informed them that she would have the young crown prince consort join them on this outing to Jun Mountain. The memory was still fresh in her mind.
Consort Cheng, Consort Liu, and the older royal concubines even beseeched her repeatedly to excuse the crown prince consort from this “taxing” outing to Jun Mountain.
Thinking of it now, the crown prince consort must have done something out of the ordinary to terrorize them.
“What are you blubbering about.” Qiao Mu spoke up again icily, her gaze landing on Xu Mingzhu like a knife.
Those that were familiar with her immediately cursed in their minds. The little fellow had truly gotten angry!
Just as Crown Prince Mo wanted to go placate his wife, he could only see an afterimage *swish* by.
The crown prince’s eyebrow promptly jerked.
By the time everyone looked over, they only saw the young crown prince consort pick up the screeching Xu Mingzhu and climb to the top of the staircase in a matter of moments.
A bad premonition slipped past everyone’s mind.
The king and Queen Zhao both looked over in consternation, the corners of their eyes twitching.
Sure enough—
The crown prince consort stuck out her leg and stomped it right on Xu Mingzhu’s butt.
