Chapter 447 Unable to Speak
Hearing the words of the man in brocade robe, the men in black felt relieved. However, they never expected that the moment the man in brocade robe walked to the door, he suddenly stopped and turned to give the man at the door a meaningful look.
The man understood and nodded slightly to show that he understood. Seeing this, the man in brocade robe raised his lips slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile, then turned around and left without hesitation, closing the door of the dark room.
As the darkroom door was heavily closed, the inside suddenly fell into darkness and silence. However, just a moment later, a shrill scream suddenly came from the darkroom, echoing in this closed space, making people shudder.
At this time, the East Palace was silent, as if time had stood still. The imperial physician gently placed his fingers on Dahl's wrist, carefully feeling her pulse. After a while, the imperial physician slowly raised his head, a smile appeared on his face, and then he said respectfully: "Your Highness, the Crown Princess, this aunt is fine, she is just a little too worried."
However, just as Madam Ba was about to have the imperial physician sent out, a eunuch suddenly ran in in a panic. His steps were staggering, as if he was being chased by something. As soon as he entered the palace, he fell to his knees with a plop, gasping for breath, as if he had just experienced an intense run.
"Your Highness, something bad has happened! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been assassinated!" The eunuch's voice was filled with a hint of fear, and it seemed particularly abrupt in this quiet palace.
"What?" His words were like a stone dropped into a lake, instantly stirring up a thousand waves. The originally peaceful East Palace suddenly became flustered. Hanguli, Dal, Ba Mama, and all the palace maids and eunuchs present, after being surprised, turned their eyes to the Crown Princess.
Mother Ba's heart tightened, fearing that Hanguli would be too upset by the news. She quickly stepped forward, supported Hanguli, and asked with concern: "Madam, are you okay?"
Hanguli's body was trembling slightly, and she stared at the eunuch, as if she couldn't believe what she heard. After a long while, she came back to her senses and asked in a trembling voice: "What did you say? The prince was assassinated? When did this happen?"
The eunuch quickly replied, "It was probably in the early morning. Someone came into the palace with the Crown Prince's order to dispatch the imperial physician, saying that he was going to rush to the Royal Mausoleum Palace. I think someone was seriously injured!"
Hearing that someone was seriously injured, Dahl felt like he was struck by lightning. His body trembled violently, and he staggered and fell straight to the ground like a puppet without support.
Her eyes were wide open and her face was full of despair, as if the whole world had collapsed at this moment.
She recalled the inexplicable uneasiness that had suddenly appeared in her chest, and instantly realized that something might have happened to her husband! This thought was like a sharp sword, piercing her heart, bringing endless pain and fear.
Dahl's fall startled everyone around. Two maids rushed forward, helped her up, and asked with concern: "Aunt, how are you? Are you hurt?"
Dahl finally came to her senses, biting her lips tightly, trying to hold back the tears in her eyes, but the sadness and despair surged in her eyes like a tide, and she couldn't hide it.
She slowly raised her head, looked at Hanguli with lifeless eyes, and said in a slightly trembling voice: "My queen, let's go to the gate of the East Palace and wait for them to come back..."
Hanguli was also a little flustered at this time. She was also very worried about the safety of the prince. The prince was assassinated, which was a major event in the palace. The palace would definitely send people from all sides to investigate the murderer. However, they could not cause trouble at this moment, so they could only wait in the East Palace.
Ankar and Mo Ming escorted the prince all the way to the East Palace. When everyone saw the prince and Bayer being carried back and still unconscious, everyone's heart was gripped. When Hanguli looked at Keremu whose clothes were stained with blood, her legs went weak and she almost fell down. Fortunately, Mammy Ba was always behind her and supported her in time. Ziya quickly ordered people to carry them back to the room and asked the imperial physician to follow up!
However, when Dal watched the prince and his sister being carried back with serious injuries, she became more and more uneasy. She anxiously waited for Baixi's return, but after everyone went in, Baixi never showed up.
Dahl was so anxious that she could not help but walk quickly to the door and crane her neck to look out, hoping to catch a glimpse of Baixi in the crowd. However, she scanned one person after another but could not find the person she was thinking about.
Suddenly, her eyes were drawn to a stretcher covered with a white cloth. The stretcher was carried by two soldiers and slowly walked towards the East Palace. Suddenly, Dahl's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and an ominous premonition came to her mind.
She wanted to go over and check who was on the stretcher. But for some reason, her steps became extremely heavy, as if a heavy burden was pressing on her. She walked slowly towards the stretcher, and every step was like stepping on the tip of a knife, which was extremely painful.
Finally, she walked to the stretcher and stood still, her eyes fixed on the white cloth, praying silently in her heart, hoping that the person under the white cloth was not her husband.
However, when she reached out to lift the white cloth, her hand seemed to be controlled by an invisible force and was completely out of control. Her fingers trembled slightly, as if there was something terrible hidden under the white cloth that she dared not uncover.
After a lot of inner struggle, Dahl finally mustered up the courage and suddenly lifted the white cloth. The moment the white cloth was lifted, her eyes seemed to be stabbed and a sharp pain came over her.
She saw that familiar face, the face that had moved her heart countless times. However, at this moment, the face was bloodless and as pale as a piece of white paper.
She opened her eyes wide, looking in disbelief at the motionless man lying on the stretcher. She couldn't believe this was true, she couldn't believe that her husband had left her like this. She wanted to call her husband to get up, but when she opened her mouth, she found that she couldn't make any sound. At this moment, she was anxious and scared. She used up all her strength, but still couldn't make a sound!
Her heart was filled with despair, as if the whole world was collapsing. Her trembling lips had lost their former color, looking pale and weak, and tears rolled down her cheeks like a flood.
Suddenly, she felt as if her chest was blocked by something, so heavy that she could hardly breathe. She stared at the person on the stretcher with her red eyes wide open, but found that everything in front of her became blurry. The feeling of having all her strength drained away made her body shaky, as if she would fall down at any time.
Just when she was about to collapse, she suddenly felt a strong force hugging her tightly from behind. Although the force was somewhat familiar, it made her feel extremely relieved. She turned her head with great effort, trying to see who was hugging her, but found that it was her son.
