Chapter 263 Extra Story - Xia Yichen Chapter (3)

It was an ordinary summer day, the warm sun was shining in the sky, and cicadas were singing in the sultry air.The Xiyue Palace, which lives near the water, is full of extraordinary excitement and celebration.Because of this year, a new life took shape in the womb of the concubine mother.My mother often caresses the seven-month-old fetus in her belly, looks at me with loving eyes, and asks with a smile: "Chen'er, do you want to be a younger brother or a younger sister?" He listened in amazement to the tension-filled commotion of the little life, then patted his chest, and replied proudly: "Whether it's a younger brother or a younger sister, I will protect him in the future!"

It's just that this wish will never be realized.

In the early morning of that day, father and emperor went to the morning court, just like in the past, mother and concubine took her personal maid, Qiao Cui, to the imperial garden for a walk.This is a good habit she has adhered to since she was conceived.Perhaps it was the morning breeze that was a little bit cool, and not long after, Qiao Cui came back alone, saying that she wanted to get a cloak for the mother and concubine.I am practicing sword in front of the palace, and I also want to go to the imperial garden to cool off.So, I snatched the cloak from Qiaocui's hand, and ran to the imperial garden in a skipping motion.

Maybe it's because my concubine's speed is faster, or maybe it's because I miss the scenery along the road too much, and I haven't been able to catch up with my concubine's footsteps along the way.I simply jumped onto the towering rockery in front of me, trying to find out the exact location of my mother and concubine.Then, I saw a scene that I will never forget.

Beside the faint lotus pond, there are a few figures standing sparsely.The concubine mother half knelt on the ground, paying respects to the queen and the prince.The prince who was the same age as me stepped forward and helped the concubine mother to stand up. The moment the prince made physical contact with her, an accident happened.I clearly saw the crown prince push my mother and concubine into the lotus pond!At that moment, the astonishment and shock in Concubine Mu's eyes was indescribable.All along, she had been wary of the queen's various schemes, but she never imagined that a 12-year-old boy would attack her.

"Concubine Mother! ---" Seeing Concubine Mother gradually disappear into the water, I cried out loudly, "Come on, save Concubine Mother! Hurry up! ---" My mournful cry alarmed the surrounding attendants. Everyone ran towards the imperial garden.At that time, how much I wanted to fly to the lotus pond immediately and fish out the mother and concubine.However, the moment my concubine fell into the water, boundless panic enveloped my world. Immediately afterwards, my whole body lost all strength, and I could only sit helplessly on the rockery, praying for a miracle to happen.
