Quick Transmigration: What to Do When the Male Supporting Character You Saved Becomes Obsessed with

Chapter 123 The Ruthless and Disabled Crown Prince (27)

Lu Liruan rolled her eyes inwardly, thinking to herself that she really couldn't be bothered to come up with an excuse. It was almost noon, how could Consort Rong have gotten up so late?

But that's what they said.

Lu Liruan stood at the door with an uneasy expression on her face. She would glance at the door every now and then, and then pace back and forth looking around.

After the old nanny left, two palace maids were still standing there, clearly watching her.

Qinghe stood quietly to the side until Lu Liruan gave any orders, as if she hadn't noticed that Lu Liruan's behavior was completely different from what she had shown before.

After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Lu Liruan said to the palace maid standing there, "Could you go in and announce my arrival, and see if Consort Rong would allow me to come in and pay my respects?"

The palace maid, having already been instructed, responded to Lu Liruan's request with the same words the old nanny had spoken: "Your Highness, the Crown Princess, the Imperial Concubine is still getting ready. When you are ready to pay your respects, someone will come out to inform you."

Please wait a moment.

Lu Liruan waited a little longer, then squatted down in place.

Qinghe, who was standing nearby, asked, "Your Highness, what's wrong?"

"Qinghe... I'm not feeling well." Lu Liruan said softly, supporting Qinghe's hand as they walked towards the shade of the trees.

Qinghe touched Lu Liruan's warm palm and felt the Crown Princess gently pat her arm.

Lu Liruan stood under the tree, her face powdered, making her look very weak.

The palace maid turned her head to look this way, and the two exchanged glances. One of them quickly went into the room.

Lu Liruan saw everything.

After the palace maid came out, the two exchanged a few words in hushed tones, then stood back where they were, ignoring Lu Liruan.

Yo ho!

Lu Liruan thought to herself, "This Consort Rong is no ordinary arrogance!"

Then don't blame me for making a big fuss later.

Lu Liruan stretched her arms and legs, moved her neck, and gave Qinghe a wink.

With a "thump," he fell solidly to the ground.

This startled Qinghe!

Regardless of whether it's true or not, other noble ladies, even if they faint, will fall down slowly. But the Crown Princess, she just fell straight down!

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, what's wrong—" Qinghe's voice brought the two palace maids back to their senses. This time, they were no longer composed and arrogant; they took off running into the house!

In the blink of an eye, the old nanny who had gone in to serve her came out with small, quick steps and came closer to check on Lu Liruan's condition.

She hadn't even touched Lu Liruan yet.

Lu Liruan suddenly straightened up, her eyes stiff, and she grabbed her arm with heavy breathing.

This old nanny is getting on in years and has always lived a life of luxury with the Imperial Concubine. How could she possibly withstand Lu Liruan's arrogant attitude?

With a cry of "Ouch—", Lu Liruan pulled her on her butt and she fell flat on her back.

She must have fallen pretty hard; Lu Liruan has already let go of her, but she still hasn't gotten up.

Two palace maids also came to help, followed by several eunuchs.

The palace maids wanted to carry Lu Liruan into the house as soon as possible. Although it was in the palace of the Imperial Concubine, they were still sitting in the open air and it was inevitable that they would be seen by others.

This could really cause trouble for the Imperial Concubine!

How could Lu Liruan let them have their way!

"I can't breathe! Qinghe, I'm so dizzy! Qinghe, I feel so awful—" Lu Liruan clutched her chest, refusing to let anyone get close. Whenever someone came near, Lu Liruan would push them away.

My exaggerated and clumsy acting...

Even the most dramatic actors back then couldn't act as well as I do now!

Wow, I'm really something! I only spent two days with a lunatic, and now my mental state is also deteriorating. Hahaha, I'm going completely insane!

The moment Lu Liruan fell to the ground, she had already overcome her psychological barrier.

The palace maids dared not be rough with Lu Liruan, who possessed the "Great Strength" cheat ability, making it easy for her to break free from them.

The eunuchs behind them were completely at a loss.

The old woman on the side was still crying out in pain, and the scene became very chaotic.

In Lu Liruan's mind, she should be like a spinning top, lying on the ground, screaming and spinning, sweeping everything away.

But in the eyes of those around her, the Crown Princess looked quite frightening; she was struggling and gasping for breath, as if she were about to die.

Lu Liruan was actually a little regretful at this moment, as she hadn't chosen a good spot to fall.

Only after collapsing did he realize that he was in the courtyard. All his commotion was for naught; he had no intention of entering Consort Rong's residence.

But now, how to get out in a logical way is another problem. You can't just... crawl out while twisting and writhing, can you?

Just as Lu Liruan was pondering, she heard a voice from the doorway: "What... what's going on here?"

The Empress Dowager's people have arrived!

Lu Liruan's eyes lit up. This Xu nanny was just by the side of the Empress Dowager.

Sure enough, Xu Mama ignored the eunuch's obstruction and walked over, her expression pausing: "Your Highness, the Crown Princess! What's wrong? You were perfectly fine when you were with the Dowager Consort."

"It's so windy and sunny, what are you doing outside?"

With just two sentences, the blame was shifted entirely to Consort Rong: "She was perfectly fine with the Dowager Consort, but you won't let her in and have made such a mess of her life. What's going on?"

Older gingers are more spicy.

Lu Liruan took a short breath; being a madwoman is really not easy.

Consort Rong was still inside her room, refusing to come out, when the Empress Dowager's people arrived, and she had no choice but to come out.

Feigning surprise, she asked, "What's wrong with the Crown Princess? Why don't you quickly fetch the imperial physician to take a look?"

Xu Mama glanced at the Imperial Concubine indifferently and curtsied.

"Why is Granny Xu here? Does Her Highness the Dowager have something to say?" Consort Rong barely managed to maintain her composure.

"Her Highness the Dowager originally intended to invite Her Highness the Imperial Concubine to discuss palace matters, but now it seems..."

Consort Rong was indeed beautiful. Even from Lu Liruan's angle, she looked gorgeous and splendid, with impeccable makeup and wearing a red dress.

If you say you just got dressed, nobody will believe you...

The Imperial Concubine has a slender and graceful figure, no wonder the Emperor has favored her to this day.

"This old servant will send someone back first to inform the Dowager Consort of the situation," said Granny Xu.

Upon hearing this, the Imperial Concubine panicked: "We don't even know the Crown Princess's condition yet. Reporting to the Dowager Consort now would only cause Her Highness great worry."

"The Crown Princess is like this on her second day in the palace. Of course, Her Highness the Empress Dowager must know about this." Xu Mama was neither humble nor arrogant, and she did not give the Noble Consort any face.

Consort Rong suddenly remembered that the Dowager Consort and the Crown Princess were from the same family and were related by blood!

She'd been too busy sulking lately, since it had been a long time since anyone had made her lose face like that.
