Chapter 1297: Chapter 1206: Kill! Leave None Behind!
Little Sugar Bean stumbled and fell to the ground.
But she didn’t cry, seemingly puzzled by her sudden fall.
Only after realizing she had been pushed down by her Imperial Sister did she decisively tattle, "Imperial Sister is bad! Hit, hit her!"
"Hit whom?"
Su Pan’er gently coaxed.
"Hit Imperial Sister, she’s bad!"
"How is she bad? Did she push our Little Sugar Bean down?"
"She did push her down!"
"Little Sugar Bean is so good! Come on, say what you just said all together."
"Imperial Sister she..." Encouraged by Su Pan’er, Little Sugar Bean’s face turned red with effort, "Imperial Sister pushed Little Sugar Bean down, and it hurt very much..."
"Oh my! Empress Mother, did you hear that? Little Sugar Bean really spoke in full sentences, she finally spoke a long sentence, now we can all go out and play!"
Little Yanyan cheered ecstatically.
...
A horse carriage carrying people dashed out of the Imperial City and sped along the Official roads.
Since Ah Mann had a high fever yesterday, Su Pan’er naturally wouldn’t take him out. This time, the ones sneaking out of the Imperial Palace included only Su Pan’er and four children; Qin Yi did not leave the palace.
The two children chattered incessantly, especially Little Sugar Bean. Since she started talking in full sentences that morning, she had activated her talking mode and hadn’t stopped for a moment, often leaving Little Yanyan unable to get a word in.
In contrast, Jiu Lan and Qingwen, who were holding the swaddled baby, sat silently and motionlessly in the corner.
Besides King Ye, also temporarily summoned to the palace were Zhang, the Commander, and his son.
Ye Han unexpectedly accompanied them out, which surprised Su Pan’er!
"Brother Ye, why have you decided to come out today?"
Ye Han’s normally stern facial features softened considerably, "Today, big brother is on his rest day."
Su Pan’er smiled and said nothing.
Around holidays, the Great Zhou Dynasty generally arranged rest days for ministers, like during the Mid-Autumn Festival, when the Imperial Court was closed for three days. These ministers would stay at home with their families or visit friends, leading a rich life.
But Ye Han was different!
He originally had a special pardon to enter and exit the palace gates freely, and Qin Yi often arranged for him to handle many issues on usual days.
It was really rare for him to settle down for a rest; saying it was his rest day today was quite something.
"Just perfect! Let’s go to Grape Manor to pick grapes first, then eat Country Dishes in the manor, and afterward return to the palace together to celebrate Mid-Autumn!" Two children were still in the palace, Su Pan’er hadn’t brought them. And Qin Yi, always busy coming and going, it was unclear what he was busy with.
Little Yanyan and Little Sugar Bean, having been confined in the palace for a long time, were naturally very excited, especially Little Sugar Bean, who kept looking outside by the carriage window.
Only Little Yanyan, previously she had pushed down Little Sugar Bean and was punished by Su Pan’er to copy texts, and now she was pouting and sulking.
"That’s fine, let’s go with what Younger Sister Pan’er has planned."
Ye Han’s attitude was amenable.
This made Su Pan’er even more eager to talk.
The grapes in Grape Manor were clusters of ripe, purple-red grapes, heavy and suspended mid-air, hanging from the vine; the sight made the two children excitedly clap and laugh.
Little Yanyan forgot her anger entirely, enthusiastically grabbing scissors and a bamboo basket, ready to pick grapes herself.
"Hurry up, Little Sugar Bean, why are you so slow, move it, move it!"
Little Sugar Bean, acting as if she only looked to herself for direction, quickly followed.
Watching the two children burrow under the grape trellis, Ye Han remained silent, following closely behind them. Su Pan’er, worried about the children, quickly took the child from Jiu Lan’s arms and held it tight, hurrying to keep up with Little Yanyan’s pace.
Little Yanyan walked swiftly, and Little Sugar Bean, while chasing after her, kept falling down but would steadily get back up.
"Walk slower, be careful of branches and supports on the ground."
Su Pan’er could not help but shout loudly.
Surprisingly, being tall and sturdy, Ye Han, just as Little Sugar Bean was about to fall again, smoothly scooped her up and quickly caught up to Little Yanyan, who was running ahead.
"This bunch, this bunch, and these two bunches... Wow! So many grapes!"
Little Yanyan exclaimed joyfully, setting down the basket and reaching out with the scissors in her hand to cut the grapes.
However, the grape trellis was very tall, and Little Yanyan couldn’t reach it at all.
Without waiting for orders from Su Pan’er, someone brought over a ladder. By the time Su Pan’er, carrying the child, caught up, she saw Little Yanyan climbing the trellis to clip grapes.
She hurriedly yelled from under the tree.
"Yanyan, be careful, watch out for your safety."
"I know, don’t worry! You’ve said it a hundred times already."
Little Yanyan spoke as she climbed down the ladder and placed the large bunch of grapes into the basket, then turned towards another bunch.
"These grapes are too large, we’ve picked too many and we can’t eat them all. Yanyan, just pick two more bunches, and then let’s go explore elsewhere, there are many other delicious things."
"I know."
Little Yanyan replied nonchalantly, and climbed up the trellis again.
Su Pan’er helplessly shook her head and turned to sit on a large stone nearby. The child had become wild with play and wished she could stay out a bit longer. Watching Ye Han catch up with the two children, Su Pan’er withdrew her gaze. She naturally trusted Ye Han’s ability, which is why she entrusted the children to him.
It was now the golden autumn of September, and Autumn Tiger was in full force.
The sun shone on their bodies, making Su Pan’er, who hadn’t rested well last night, even more drowsy.
Unconsciously, her eyes gradually closed.
"Ah!"
Suddenly, a brief scream rang out. The drowsy Su Pan’er instantly opened her eyes, only to see the high flagpole inexplicably collapsing, falling onto the grape trellis. Unable to bear the weight, the trellis suddenly crashed down, closing in just inches above Su Pan’er’s head.
"Empress!"
"Empress, quickly get out of the way!"
"Empress, hurry!"
Cries of alarm sounded at once, several figures simultaneously sprinting, yet too far to be of immediate help! But Su Pan’er seemed to not hear at all, staring blankly as the structure crashed down...
Bang, bang!
Crash...
The grape trellis collapsed, and everyone was instantaneously stunned!
But in the next moment, the trellis fully submerged her...
Everyone froze collectively.
Then some people reacted, shouting loudly: "Empress! Hurry, quickly move to save the Empress!"
People clumsily began to remove the suddenly collapsed grape trellis.
Ye Han, who was initially ahead holding Little Sugar Bean, naturally heard the commotion from this side and suddenly stepped forward, grabbed Little Yanyan’s collar: "Quick, let’s go back!"
Just as people rushed to rescue the Empress trapped underneath, the situation at the scene suddenly changed, as a group of masked men silently encircled from all directions.
"Kill! Leave none alive!"
One of the masked men suddenly spoke, waving his hand, and then they all charged forward.
