Princess Dingnan randomly grabbed a handful of melon seeds and gave them to the eunuch who was singing the ceremony. "My father-in-law, help me bring a message to the Queen Mother. When the twins are older, I will bring them into the palace for her to see."
"Thank you for the reward, Princess. I must have brought the message to you, so I will leave first." The eunuch bowed his waist and exited the Dingnan Palace. The outside of the palace was full of people watching the excitement.
"It turns out that the eldest lady is pregnant with twins. No wonder her belly is bigger than other pregnant women. Oh, it's a good thing I didn't listen to their rumors at the time."
Many people echoed the words of this commoner woman and were glad that they did not talk too much to stir up trouble in Dingnan Palace.
In the palace, Wen Yuan squeezed through the crowd and entered Rong Jingyun's room. At this time, the two children were sleeping soundly. She put down the gifts she prepared, looked at the two little ones in swaddling clothes, and sat down with Rong Jingyun. Jingyun's bedside.
"Sister-in-law, you are so awesome. You don't even know it. My father and mother are so happy that they keep grinning, for fear that others won't know that they have a fat grandson."
The gift Wen Yuan brought this time was two small quilts, which were just right for covering the two children.
Naturally, the things she gave were not bad, Rong Jingyun knew that without even looking at them.
"You said father and the others are the same, aren't you the same?" Everyone said that the aunt and sister-in-law were difficult to get along with, but the two of them were very good. Seeing that Rong Jingyun still had the energy to joke, Wen Yuan sighed at her quick recovery.
After taking out some tonics from his space bracelet and putting them on the table, Wen Yuan left with a smile. The rest of the time still belonged to Rong Jingyun and his wife.
Wen Yuan returned to the princess mansion and told everyone in the mansion about the happy event, and also rewarded them with many good things.
"It's just that what should I give this child when he is one month old?" She was worrying about what would happen in a month's time, and the voice of Chun Hua sounded beside her.
"Longevity Lock, Miss." Yes, why didn't she expect this? She gave away everything that should be given, but she didn't give away the Longevity Lock yet.
While the two were talking, they saw a boy running from outside the courtyard, "Princess, the prince asked you to come over quickly. It seems that there is something wrong with the two quilts you gave me, princess."
Both quilts were embroidered by the best embroiderers she hired. What could go wrong? But since it was about her nephew, Wen Yuan also rushed to Dingnan Prince's Mansion.
King Dingnan gave the two small quilts to Wen Yuan and asked her to see what was on them. "I don't know who wants to separate you from the palace, but they use such dirty methods. If they are found out by this king, they will be severely punished!"
No one in the Dingnan Palace suspected that Wen Yuan intended to harm the two babies. Rong Jingyun also felt that something was fishy. Wen Yuan obviously loved his two sons so much, how could he harm them.
"People around me have actually learned this dirty trick, little sister, I need to check it out carefully." Wen Xi became a father for the first time. He saw his son sneezing repeatedly due to the pollen on the two beds, and he got angry just thinking about it.
Wen Yuan sniffed the pollen on the quilt carefully. Fortunately, it was just pollen. She thought that the two children had some discomfort with pollen.
But the people who use the plan have evil thoughts. Today they are pollen, and tomorrow they will be poison.
"Check, whose hands have these two quilts passed through? Find them all out for me."
After throwing the quilt to Chunhua, Wen Yuan came to Rong Jingyun's bed alone and admitted his mistake, "I'm sorry, sister-in-law. It's all my fault that my people weren't careful enough...the two children suffered."
"It's okay, it's just a few coughs and sneezes. Sister-in-law, I believe you wouldn't do such a thing." Rong Jingyun reminded Wen Yuan in a low voice, "It's just that people with good intentions should be more careful. Children in Japan are plotting against each other, which shows how vicious this person is."
Wen Yuan nodded lightly and vowed to find this person, "Yes, Ayuan, please remember, thank you sister-in-law for reminding me, then I will go back first."
Not long after she left, the children started crying on the bed. Rong Jingyun quickly patted them to put them to sleep, "My child, my child, the Gaomen Courtyard is so unpredictable. Mother only hopes that you will grow up safely. With such an aunt here... I think you won’t suffer any big grievances in the future.”
After returning to the princess's mansion, Wen Yuan gathered all the servants and maids in the palace together in the main hall. Falcon and Owl stood beside her on the left and right, holding a stick as thick as a forearm in their hands.
Chunhua held two neatly folded quilts in her hands and looked at the servants expressionlessly.
"On this special day, I don't want to see blood. Whoever put the pollen on these two quilts stands up and I will spare your life." Her words were cold and she stared at the servants equally sternly.
Seeing the group of people below looking at each other but not daring to stand up and admit it, Wen Yuan became angry. He suppressed the anger in his heart and stood up and walked in front of them, observing the expressions on their faces one by one.
A man was standing there shaking, with sweat all over his forehead. If he hadn't done it, why would he be so scared? It was so abnormal.
"Falcon." Wen Yuan stood in front of the man, but called the man not far behind him.
I saw Falcon coming to the man with a big stick. The stick hit the ground with a loud sound. The man knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Princess... I saw Xiao Liu touch... At that time, she was carrying these two beds. I even opened the quilt and looked at it for a while and smelled it.”
"Very good. Did you see anything else besides these?"
"No more, no more..."
Wen Yuan didn't embarrass him, "Okay, get up."
"Yes... thank you princess, thank you princess..." The man raised his hand and wiped the sweat from his forehead and stood up from the ground.
His son's knees were still weak at this moment, and it took Falcon a long time to hold him up before he managed to stand up.
Wen Yuan and Falcon walked up to the maid named Xiao Liu and looked at her with a murderous look on her face. She didn't say anything, just stared at her.
The woman quickly couldn't resist Wen Yuan's sinister look, so she knelt down and took the initiative to explain what happened, "That quilt was given to me by Xiao Jiuduan. I could smell the fragrance from a distance and was curious about what it was, so I got closer. After smelling it... he also saw it, I just smelled it and took a look, but didn't do anything else... The princess was aware of it."
This woman was much calmer than the man, and Wen Yuan believed her words. Without too much trouble, she turned to Xiao Jiu who was standing next to her.
Xiao Jiu was not so thoughtful. She had done nothing wrong, so she was very confident. "They said that the lady wanted a quilt for the twins. After it was made, it was kept in the warehouse, so I went to get it. I also looked for Chunhua. My sister asked for the key to the warehouse, and after taking it, she gave it to Xiaoliu, but when I was in the warehouse, I smelled a very fragrant smell."
Her frank look was not a lie in Wen Yuan's opinion, so now there was only one problem.
Everyone, including Wen Yuan, looked at Chunhua. She was the only one who had the key to the warehouse, but Wen Yuan didn't want to believe that Chunhua could be so vicious.
"Okay, I probably understand this matter. You all can go down, while I sort out my thoughts. Falcon, Owl, Chunhua, and you three will stay."
After the others left, Wen Yuan sat down and asked Chunhua what she thought.
Chunhua was also very anxious. She had always kept the key personally and had never given it to anyone else. She was the only one who had the key when Qiuyue was still serving Wen Yuan.
But her mentality was not as good as before. After being punished to do chores, she had been in charge of inventory in the warehouse. Chunhua had a hard time explaining it, but she also believed that Wen Yuan would not suspect her.
"It seems that someone deliberately put the blame on you. Who would do such a thing without money here? Chunhua, think about it carefully. Who knows where your key is?"
Wen Yuan knew her and Qiu Yue very well, so when she thought of the warehouse key, she naturally thought of Qiu Yue, a person who no longer appeared around her often.
"Falcon, go and bring Qiuyue to me for personal interrogation."
After a while, Qiuyue was brought to the main hall in full view of everyone. She had never seen any big scenes with Wen Yuan before, so she was not timid in the face of Wen Yuan at this moment.
"I wonder why Miss asked me to come?"
She had long since changed out of the dress she wore on the day she collected pollen. Even when she applied pollen, she was very careful not to let it get on her. She didn't believe there was any way Wen Yuan could catch her.
Wen Yuan did not answer her question, and kept looking up and down at Qiu Yue in silence.
After a long while, she squinted her eyes and asked in a low voice: "Why didn't you wear that gold brocade dress that you love to wear most all day long? Instead, you changed into such a plain dress."
If I remember correctly, Qiuyue would wear that dress eight or nine out of the ten days before. Even if it was dirty, she would wash it at night and let it dry the next day before wearing it again.
That was the most valuable thing she had given her. In addition, Qiuyue was very vain and often wore this dress everywhere.
It’s over…
Mentioning this skirt, Qiuyue's expression was a little flustered, but she quickly adjusted it, smiled and said very decently: "It's been raining these days, and the clothes and skirts that are hung out to dry are always dry, and that skirt is still hanging out."
I almost forgot that I had already washed the pollen off my dress. Fortunately... Qiuyue was secretly glad.
Wen Yuan really couldn't do anything to her at the moment, so he waved her back.
But Qiuyue did not leave, hiding in a corner outside the main hall and eavesdropping on their conversation.
"Miss, since you have determined that she did it, why don't you force her to admit it?"
Chunhua is confused, does the lady want to protect Qiuyue?
But Wen Yuan also had a look of helplessness on her face. She sighed and called Chunhua to her side and whispered to her: "We have proof, but I believe the pleasure after a person succeeds will make her move to the next step quickly. We will Just wait until she makes a mistake, and when the time comes, she will be punished and she will have nothing else to say."
She patted the back of Chunhua's hand and comforted her: "Please feel aggrieved during this period."
"What did you say, Miss? There is nothing wrong with this. Anyway, I have never done it. I have a clear conscience. Only people with such a vicious heart deserve to die. Children will be harmed."
When she said this, she looked at the little heel exposed outside the hall, unable to conceal her disgust for Qiuyue.
Wen Yuan also knew that she was eavesdropping outside and deliberately said loudly to her, "Okay, this matter ends here. It's really unlucky."
