The children who had caused trouble were brought in and stood in a row fearfully.
Only then did everyone have the intention to look at the children carefully, and they were shocked at first glance.
Among the five children, two were Yu Cheng's sons, and three were sons of clan members. They were all only a few years old, standing there shivering, looking like they wanted to cry but not cry.
Long Mu looked at the children coldly. The emperor was filled with anger but had nowhere to vent it.
Before I even asked anything, I was already scared to tears. If I get angry again, I'm afraid I won't be able to ask anything and will just cry.
With his thick eyebrows wrinkled, the emperor suppressed his anger and asked as calmly as possible: "Why did you hit Princess Jing? Whose idea was it?"
If it was just an accident, it would be fine, but if someone instigated it, the matter would be serious.
Everyone knew this well and stood outside the hall holding their breath and not daring to speak.
The children looked at me, and I looked at you, and finally looked at Yu Haolin and said, "He fell first, and we followed him."
"Is that so? Haolin?" The emperor stared at Yu Haolin and asked.
Yu Haolin said in a trembling voice: "Grandfather, I didn't mean to do it. I accidentally tripped."
Yu Haolin was less than four years old, and it was normal for him to stumble and fall while chasing.
But the strange thing is that they happened to bump into Jiang Shu.
Someone said: "The garden was full of people at that time, and only Princess Jing's side was empty."
That makes sense.
A group of ignorant children, when they are playing, they naturally go wherever they have time.
"Did you lie?" The emperor's eyes swept over the faces of the children one by one.
Several children shook their heads in horror: "No."
The queen spoke up at the right time: "The children are still young, so they will definitely not lie. This matter should be just an accident."
Cao Muxue also said: "This matter was due to my negligence. I didn't take Haolinhaoyan seriously, which caused them to get into trouble."
Yu Haolin is the son of Xie Wanruo, and Yu Haoyan is the son of Cao Muxue.
Cao Muxue's words seemed to put all the blame on herself, but in fact, she was alluding to Xie Wanruo's failure to take good care of the child, which led to Jiang Shu being accidentally hit.
And Xie Wanruo took Jiang Shu and made a meat pad, which was to make up for Yu Haolin's mistakes, and he couldn't blame anyone.
"Your Majesty, forgive me..." The parents of the three clan sons also came forward to apologize.
But a few children have already been talked about, and the culprit is Yu Cheng's son. The son of the clan is just innocently affected. If he continues to pursue the case, he will be narrow-minded and unforgiving.
"Okay, the children are frightened. Take them back to calm their nerves." The emperor waved his hand, indicating that the matter was over.
The palace banquet was almost over, and something like this happened again. No one had the intention to stay any longer and left the palace one after another.
After all the clan members left, the emperor's family was the only one left in the palace.
The emperor looked at Jiang Shu, who was still in shock, and then at Xie Wanruo, who was weak and could not bear the pain, and his brows were so tight that they were about to knot.
Although Yu Haolin bumped into Jiang Shu, Xie Wanruo protected Jiang Shu, thus causing her own child to be in danger. It is really a headache to judge whether this matter is right or wrong.
"Haoyan, quickly make amends to Aunt Three Emperors and Empress Xie." Cao Muxue pulled Yu Haoyan.
Yu Haoyan is two years older than Yu Haolin, and is only six years old this year.
After listening to Cao Muxue's words, Yu Haoyan stepped forward and timidly apologized to Jiang Shu and Xie Wanruo.
Xie Wanruo squeezed her hands tightly, hating Cao Muxue in her heart.
Regardless of whether this incident was an accident or not, Cao Muxue was secretly pressing forward and placing all the blame on Yu Haolin.
If Jiang Shu and Yu Zheng were to pursue the case, it would all be Yu Haolin's fault.
What a poisonous thought!
Xie Wanruo was short of breath and felt the cramping in her abdomen getting worse. She couldn't help but let out a cry of pain.
"ah!"
Yu Cheng, who was standing by, couldn't care less about right or wrong, and quickly asked Dr. Chen to examine Xie Wanruo.
After careful diagnosis, Dr. Chen said in a panic: "Your Majesty's child...can't be saved."
When Xie Wanruo heard this, she felt so much pain that she couldn't help but fainted.
Yu Cheng quickly ordered: "Someone, bring the concubine back to the East Palace."
At the end, Yu Cheng held his chest and apologized to Jiang Shu and Yu Zheng: "I can't forgive you for this matter. I will accept whatever you want, but now I have to take Wanruo and Haolin back first. Please forgive me."
No matter what, it was a fact that his two children bumped into Jiang Shu and almost caused an accident to her.
Although Yu Zheng was angry, Jiang Shu was fine after all, but Xie Wanruo's child was no longer safe.
Even if Yu Haolin was at fault, Xie Wanruo had already paid him back.
Facing Yu Cheng who was sincerely apologizing, Yu Zhengjun said with a serious face: "This matter ends here, there is no need to say anything more."
"Thank you." Yu Cheng said apologetically, bowed to the emperor and empress, and left with Xie Wanruo and Yu Haolin.
Seeing how Yu Cheng defended Xie Wanruo's mother and son, Cao Muxue was filled with jealousy and resentment, and her hands in her sleeves tightly twisted the handkerchief.
The queen glanced at her, her eyes long and hard to distinguish.
"Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Concubine Yu Gui asked Jiang Shu warmly, feeling worried.
Jiang Shu shook his head and turned pale.
She didn't feel any discomfort, but she was really frightened.
Yu Zheng bowed to the emperor and said: "Shu'er was frightened, and I took her back to the palace."
"Yes. Take good care of them. The children are important." The emperor agreed and ordered the palace servants to take them out of the palace in a soft sedan. Yu Lan and Zhuang Yun also left together.
The matter is clearly right and wrong, but it is difficult to hold people accountable, so we can only let it go.
The emperor had a headache and asked the queen to go to the East Palace to see Xie Wanruo.
"Yes." The queen stood up and went to the East Palace with Cao Muxue and the child.
When they arrived at Xie Wanruo's courtyard, they saw palace attendants carrying basin after basin of blood and hurriedly coming out of the house.
Cao Muxue's eyes flashed slightly, and she was ecstatic in her heart.
The queen looked back at her with a warning look and stepped into the room.
There is no doubt that Xie Wanruo's child is gone.
Xie Wanruo closed her eyes tightly and lay on the bed bloodlessly, while Yu Cheng stood in front of the bed, his face full of grief.
"How are you doing, sir?" the queen asked Dr. Chen.
Doctor Chen said solemnly: "Your Majesty, you are bleeding too much and may be seriously injured. I'm afraid..."
"Say." The queen's voice was cold.
Doctor Chen gritted his teeth and said, "I'm afraid it will be difficult to get pregnant again."
If your health is good and you take good care of yourself for a few years after miscarriage, you can get pregnant again. But when Xie Wanruo gave birth to Yu Hao, she already suffered from dystocia and bleeding, and now she has suffered this disaster again, and she really can't bear it.
The Queen was silent for a long time after hearing this, then walked up to Yu Cheng and said, "Cheng'er, the matter has come to this, there is no point in grieving any more. Wan Ruo still needs your care, so you have to take care of yourself."
"My son, I know." Yu Chengchen responded painfully.
The queen took a deep look at Xie Wanruo who was unconscious on the bed, and left with Cao Muxue.
Cao Muxue knew that the queen had something to say to her, so she returned to the courtyard and entered the house and closed the door.
"aunt……"
"Snapped!"
As soon as Cao Muxue opened her mouth, the queen slapped her hard.
Cao Muxue covered her burning face and looked at the queen aggrievedly.
The queen said coldly: "Who gave you the courage? How dare you murder Cheng'er's heirs."
Although she didn't like Xie Wanruo, the child Xie Wanruo was carrying was of Yu Cheng's blood.
It's okay to touch adults, but not children. This is the bottom line.
Cao Muxue's eyes flickered and she defended: "I...I didn't, it was just an accident."
The queen snorted coldly, stared at her coldly and asked, "Is it just an accident?"
