But Princess Chang Qing suddenly heard from Doctor Wang that her widowed daughter-in-law Ding Mengxuan was actually pregnant! I couldn't help being surprised and annoyed, so I immediately called Ding Mengxuan's eldest girl Qiyu to find out what happened.
Saitama stood in front of Princess Changqing in panic, his face was bloodless and his eyes were wandering.
She couldn't help but think of the thrilling and unbearable scene a few months ago - the situation at that time had almost become a nightmare that would linger throughout her life.
At the beginning, she was just out of curiosity and confusion.
Because in those days, she was surprised to find that Ding Mengxuan, whose husband was killed on the night of their wedding, changed from the pale, haggard, and soulless appearance of the past. He suddenly became radiant, with bright eyes that were clear, and she was wondering in her heart, but she couldn't ask directly. , only observing quietly in the dark.
Finally one night she discovered the clue.
That night, she first pretended to be asleep, then secretly got up in the middle of the night and crept outside Ding Mengxuan's dormitory.
At this time she heard some strange noises coming from the room. The voice sounded like one who was drunk, lingering and lingering, making people blush and feel their heart beat and get goosebumps all over their body.
It was obvious that they were the voices of a man and a woman. The female is his former young lady, Ding Mengxuan, the young lady of the Houye Mansion. Where is the male? …
At that moment, Saitama felt that all the blood in her body was about to coagulate; she just stood there blankly, her mind going blank.
She couldn't believe her ears. how could be? …
She was originally a daughter of the Ding family and had served Ding Mengxuan since she was a child. She knew very well how chaste and strong Miss Ding was.
Now that her husband had just passed away a few months ago, and his body was still cold, could she do such a thing? She thought she must have heard wrong!
With her mind full of confusion and confusion, she walked to the window of Ding Mengxuan's dormitory and gently put her ear to the window lattice.
Then the sounds in the room came out clearly, every word, and penetrated into her ears without missing a beat.
There was indeed a man and a woman making love. That woman was really his former young lady, Ding Mengxuan, the current young lady of Lord Hou's Mansion; and that man... was actually the eldest son of Lord Hou's Mansion, He Chenglin!
At that moment, she almost went crazy! She patted her somewhat numb head hard and couldn't come back to her senses for a long time; she wondered if she was dreaming?
The eldest son, He Chenglin? Could it be that he has seen a ghost? Impossible, impossible... At this moment, her mind was in a daze and she was about to faint.
Her face was pale and terrified, and she subconsciously stepped back step by step. At this time, she suddenly felt numbness on her shoulders, and then her vision went dark, and she didn't know anything anymore...
When she woke up again, she found that she was curled up, her hands and feet were tied, and she was imprisoned in a dark and damp room; there was a person standing in front of her, staring at her with sinister eyes and an expressionless face. Holding her.
This person is none other than Ying Chuanlin, the martial arts master of the Hou Ye Mansion.
Ying Chuanlin raised his iceberg face that had remained unchanged for thousands of years and said coldly: "Tell me, do you want to die or live now?"
What's the meaning? ... Saitama raised his panicked eyes and looked at him confused.
Ying Chuanlin turned his back to her and said to himself: "If you still want to continue living, then no one should talk about what you saw tonight, including the Marquis and the Princess. , and the young lady..."
Having said this, he narrowed his dark eyes, and a cold murderous intent flashed across his eyes, "On the other hand, if you dare to reveal even a single word, you will never see the sun tomorrow again! ... …”
The scene at that time was like a frightening nightmare; and the words Ying Chuanlin said to her also became a lingering shadow in her life...
Now facing Princess Chang Qing's stern and majestic questioning, she felt as if the dark scar hidden deep in her heart had been torn open again, with waves of heart-piercing pain.
Can she tell what happened that night? cannot! Of course not!
If she just said it in a quick and reckless way, she would definitely die! Because she knew Ying Chuanlin's personality and temperament very well - he was ruthless and would definitely kill her to silence her.
On the other hand, if she keeps her mouth shut and grits her teeth to hold on, there might be a glimmer of hope...
Saitama weighed it again and again and secretly made up his mind. When she raised her head again, a firm and persistent look flashed in her eyes.
Seeing that Saitama was just sobbing and sobbing without saying anything, Princess Changqing became a little impatient and couldn't help but press the question again.
Saitama slowly lowered her tearful eyes and sobbed: "Princess, I really don't know anything!... I just found that the young lady has been acting a little abnormally these days. She seems to be very excited and excited, but throughout the whole day Except for the few girls and grandma who serve her, no one else has been here!"
A trace of confusion flashed across Princess Changqing's beautiful eyes, "Is this true?"
Saitama's erratic eyes looked away; she paused briefly and said firmly: "What I said is absolutely true. Princess, I can swear to God that if I dare to say anything false, I will die immediately." Under the sword!..."
Princess Chang Qing saw that she spoke simply and with a decisive tone; she couldn't help but glance at her doubtfully, lowered her head and pondered without saying anything.
Biyun, Princess Changqing's confidant maid, saw that the situation had reached a stalemate, and said from the sidelines: "Princess, this servant also feels that this matter is very strange. Our Lord Marquis's residence has always been heavily guarded and orderly; and the young lady Living in a boudoir and living in seclusion, if something unexpected happens, there should be some disturbance - but in the past few months, I haven't noticed anything unusual!"
Princess Changqing frowned, thinking: "Could it be that some of the servants are unruly?" Thinking of this, she couldn't help but waved to Biyun in distress, asking her to take Saitama down first.
Princess Chang Qing sat alone in the hall, thought for a long time, and then came to Ding Mengxuan alone with a few personal maids.
Ding Mengxuan was sitting listlessly on the bed at this time. She was pale and haggard, pitiful, and lifeless like a sick beauty.
Princess Chang Qing's eyebrows were full of coldness and contempt. She was silent for a moment and asked: "How many months has it been since your period?"
Ding Mengxuan lowered his eyelids and said quietly: "It's been about three months."
Princess Chang Qing rolled her eyes and snorted coldly: "How do you explain this?"
Ding Mengxuan's face turned red; she hesitated for a moment, then said calmly: "I'm afraid even my mother won't believe it if I say it, but it's absolutely true."
Princess Chang Qing looked at her with some confusion, "Oh?..."
With a shy face on his face, Ding Mengxuan told the story from beginning to end about He Chenglin's soul appearing and meeting her in his dream three months ago.
Princess Chang Qing's eyes were full of disbelief and surprise. She looked at her daughter-in-law for a long time, her beautiful eyes widened, and she was speechless for a long time.
She has an attitude of "you can't disbelieve it, but you can't believe it completely" when it comes to theories about past and future lives, ghosts appearing, etc.; because in her subconscious, there is always a specious and hazy fantasy. and longing for.
Especially after the death of her son He Chenglin, she hoped that a ghost would appear in this world; because in this case, her son would have a spirit in heaven and he could also entrust her with dreams.
For a poor mother with a sincere heart, even having the opportunity to meet her son in a dream is a kind of sustenance and comfort to her.
Princess Chang Qing came out of Ding Mengxuan's place and returned to the original hall with worries. She asked the attendant to find the housekeeper He Luwei, told He Luwei about the matter, and asked for his opinion.
He Luwei frowned, hesitated for a long time, and hesitated: "This old slave... dare not say anything about this kind of thing."
Princess Chang Qing said: "I am discussing this with you because I trust you. If you have any ideas, just tell me!"
He Luwei lowered his head and thought for a moment, then carefully considered the words and said, "I don't dare to talk nonsense about the eldest son's apparition, whether it is true or not. There is one thing I have to remind the princess: the eldest son died young, and the young lady But she is pregnant at this time, and the fire cannot be contained in paper. If this matter spreads out one day, it will be easy to talk about but not easy to hear! It is related to the reputation of the Marquis's house, so I hope the princess will handle it carefully! "
He Lu's cryptic and implicit statement in order to avoid the important things only aggravated Princess Changqing's inner worries and uneasiness; at the same time, it also completely eliminated the confusion in her heart: What ghost appeared, it was clearly this bitch who was making excuses!
After ten months of pregnancy, once the child is born, if this evil creature of unknown origin is born, where will the faces of the Marquis and I be? If this kind of immoral and scandalous behavior is not stopped in time, it will really make me feel ashamed if things get serious! …
Princess Chang Qing's face remained calm, but she had already made up her mind. After some thought, she asked He Luwei to find Doctor Wang.
