"Sister Royal."
Qin Shuning stopped for a moment and turned around quickly.
"Heng'er."
She walked over quickly, looked at Qin Heng's face with distressed eyes, and couldn't help but shed tears.
"Princess, please slow down."
"Heng'er, wuwu..."
"How did it become like this?"
Qin Shuning's expression collapsed, and she squatted in front of Qin Heng, sobbing.
"Sister Huang, please don't cry. Heng'er is fine."
Qin Heng held her hand and comforted her softly.
"How can it be okay?"
Qin Shuning stretched out her hand tremblingly and touched his legs.
"It's okay, it's all over."
"look."
Qin Heng forced a smile and stretched out his hand to pat his legs hard.
"Sister Huang knows, Sister Huang knows."
"Stop shooting."
Qin Shuning quickly held his hand, as if she was worried about damaging it.
Qin Heng felt warm in his heart. The blood of a close relative is the most heart-warming thing, but it can also be the most heart-breaking.
This scene was something he had never experienced in his previous life.
"Princess, be careful with yourself."
At this time, the handsome young man standing next to him could no longer control himself and said with a worried look on his face.
"I've met the consort." Qin Heng raised his head, smiled slightly, and was the first to say hello.
In his memory, he only met Wang Baobao once.
There was not much interaction between the two of them.
"Ah, meet the Eighth Prince."
Wang Baobao suddenly woke up. Just remembering that he had been rude, he quickly bent down and saluted.
"The prince-in-law is polite."
"Sister Huang, you are pregnant, please stop crying, your makeup is all gone."
"Come on, let's go in."
Qin Heng pursed his lips and smiled, jokingly.
"Um."
Qin Shuning suppressed the grief in her heart, nodded, and stood up with the support of Wang Baobao.
Walking into the lobby, several people took their seats.
"Sister Huang, are you still used to being outside the palace?"
Qin Heng looked at the imperial sister who was much calmer than before and asked kindly.
Qin Shuning wiped away her tears and nodded: "Everything is fine. The consort also takes good care of me."
When Qin Heng heard this, he looked at Wang Baobao sitting beside him and couldn't help but smile slightly to express his gratitude.
"I heard my mother-in-law said that you were pregnant a few days ago, but it made me very happy. I must pay attention to my health on weekdays. I am waiting to be my uncle."
"Well, don't worry, Heng'er. Sister Huang will take good care of herself."
"You, on the other hand, are much calmer than before."
Qin Shuning looked at the greatly changed imperial brother and said with emotion.
Qin Heng's heart tightened and he shook his head with a deep look in his eyes: "How can you not grow after experiencing this?"
"Has the murderer been found?"
"Who did it?"
Qin Shuning asked with hatred in her eyes.
"It was a eunuch who did it. Later, his father found out that he had committed suicide by hitting a pillar." Qin Heng did not hide it. All the ministers already knew about this matter.
After all, his assassination was no small matter.
You can't hide something.
What's more, none of those high-ranking ministers in the palace have any influence.
"Hmph, who instigated this?"
"To be so heartless and crazy, to attack you."
Qin Shuning asked.
"I don't know either, and my father hasn't found out either. The clues have been cut off by the eunuch."
Qin Heng shook his head.
As for his previous speculation, he did not say anything.
After all, it would be useless to reveal this matter now.
Instead, it will push him into the eyes of everyone.
"call."
When Qin Shuning heard this, she seemed to be anxious and couldn't help but take a deep breath.
"The past is in the past. Don't take it to heart, Sister Huang. I am very happy if I can live to see Sister Huang again."
Seeing this, Qin Heng quickly spoke out to persuade.
"Sister Huang knows that you must be more careful in the future, but don't let anything happen again."
"If you have anything to say to Sister Huang, I will help you."
Qin Shuning forced a smile and gave careful instructions.
"Well, I understand."
Qin Heng felt warm in his heart and nodded.
The next few people kept talking in the lobby until the evening, before Qin Shuning reluctantly left.
The next morning, Qin Heng had just finished washing when he saw Liu Qi coming in a hurry.
"What's wrong? What happened?"
Seeing his panic, Qin Heng couldn't help but ask.
"Sorry, Eighth Prince, there are rumors throughout the Qin Dynasty today that Xu Meiren died of a bloody collapse because she was harmed by the queen, in order to win over Master Huo."
"Moreover, Po Wen, who delivered the baby that day, also committed suicide out of fear of crime and left a blood letter saying that she was instructed by her queen."
Qin Heng paused with the jade fan in his hand, raised his head and asked, "Where did this news come from?"
"It was reported from the Southern District, but we can't find out who it is." Liu Qi shook his head.
Qin Heng secretly praised in his heart that the Southern District is a civilian residence with dense crowds, making it even more difficult to catch the person spreading the news.
"Not only that, the rumors are getting more and more outrageous now. There are even rumors that your legs were also caused by the Queen." Liu Qi continued with a worried look on his face.
When Qin Heng heard this, his brows suddenly furrowed.
As for Xu Meiren's incident, he was not surprised. He probably knew who was controlling it.
But he also told the story about his encounter with the assassin.
This made him not expect that if this was the case...
I'm afraid that I will fall into a storm.
The jade fan in his hand began to beat subconsciously in his palms.
My mind was thinking about how to deal with what happened next.
"What does grandpa think about this matter?" he asked with raised eyebrows.
"Grandfather was summoned to the palace by His Majesty early in the morning, so he didn't have time to say anything." Liu Qi hurriedly replied.
Qin Heng nodded: "You go back first, don't make this matter public, and wait for the news to come out from the palace."
Liu Qi opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something.
But seeing the look on his face, I could only swallow what I wanted to say and responded.
"promise."
Liu Qi cupped his fists and saluted, then turned and walked out.
Qin Heng did not waste any time, and directly entered the Poison Hall.
"Greetings, my lord."
Qin Heng opened his eyes and saw four poison warriors standing in front of him.
"Gentlemen, please take a seat."
With that said, he walked to the main seat and sat down.
The four of them sat down, and Qin Heng was the first to speak: "The gentlemen must have heard it just now, how should I deal with it now?"
"My lord, there is no need to worry. Today, my lord can go to the East Palace to sit down and express his trust in the queen."
"For the rest, we just have to wait and see what happens." Jia Xu said calmly.
"Why do you want to help the queen?"
"Shouldn't we just add fuel to the fire?" Qin Heng was puzzled.
Jia Xu shook his head: "Even if this matter is found out, it will only be done by the queen and will not have much to do with the prince."
"Lord, there is no need to jump out so quickly."
"Just let the Crown Prince and the Second Prince fight."
"Speaking of which, this second prince is not simple at all. His attacks are so clean and neat, and he is thorough in everything."
"At this moment, the Queen will probably shed her skin even if she doesn't die. You know, there will definitely be many people who will add insult to injury."
"Yeah, I didn't expect that he would immediately create evidence and use public opinion to punish the queen after I just reminded him. It's really not something to be underestimated." Qin Heng praised.
Everything was arranged in one night. The power behind this is really not small!
