The child in Princess Cheng's belly was not saved after all. Gu Helian cursed fiercely, but when she saw the basins of blood being brought out, her face turned pale.
He was wounded by an arrow, but he carried it and refused to leave. He squatted in front of Rongyue's door for half the night. His peacock-like clothes were all wrinkled and he looked haggard.
Tang Ning also stayed with Princess Cheng until dawn, when Princess Cheng slowly woke up. The first thing she did after waking up was to ask about the child.
"Is it a boy or a girl?"
"Princess, the deceased is gone..."
"I just want to know if he is a boy or a girl."
Princess Cheng's lips were frighteningly white. She put her hand on her completely flat belly and her eyelashes trembled slightly: "After all, it has been in my belly for four months. Even if it is aborted, I still have to know what it will look like when it is alive. .”
Doctor Sun couldn't help but look at Tang Ning, and when he saw that she didn't stop him, he whispered unbearably: "Ms. Qin took care of it for you. I only took one look at it. Although the child has taken shape, I still can't tell the gender clearly. , but according to the pubic bone and your previous pulse, he should be a young man."
Princess Cheng reached out and clenched the quilt tightly.
"Aunt." Tang Ning stepped forward with some worry.
Princess Cheng looked up with a pale face: "Fortunately, he didn't survive..."
Fortunately he is gone.
When she spoke in a low voice, her voice was extremely hoarse, and she quickly lowered her eyes as if to hide her embarrassment. However, the mist under her eyes could not be swallowed back, and instead stung her internal organs.
Tang Ning held her hand and opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but nothing came out for a long time. She didn't know how to comfort Princess Cheng in this situation, and she didn't know what to say to make her less depressed. Sad, she could only put her arms around her shoulders, lean forward and hug her gently.
Gu Helian, who was hiding outside the door, heard the extremely suppressed sobs coming from inside. He kicked the wall viciously with red eyes and gritted his teeth.
"Son of a bitch!!"
Princess Cheng's pregnancy was extremely harmful to her health. She cried for a while and fell asleep again. After Hua Wu was told to take care of Princess Cheng personally, Tang Ning withdrew from the hospital together with Dr. Sun.
"How is Rong Yue?" Gu Helian lowered her voice.
Dr. Sun whispered: "The princess was injured during the miscarriage this time, so that's all. It's just that the incident between Prince Cheng's Mansion and Prince Xie will probably make her depressed. If she can't bear it mentally, it will be difficult for her body to recover. So, I have to find a way to relieve her heartache."
Gu Helian's expression turned ugly when she heard this. He had not digested what happened tonight in Prince Cheng's Mansion, let alone Rong Yue, even now. Rong Yue may not be that concerned about Xie Tianyu's bad thing. The key is Aunt Jiang and Xie Yin.
One is her nanny who is close to her, and the other is her son who she has loved for many years by blood. But now with the betrayal, the son has become a fake.
How does this make her happy?
Tang Ning stood aside and looked at the extremely depressed Gu Helian, and suddenly said: "Mr. Sun, is it okay for my aunt to abort the child?"
Imperial Physician Sun nodded: "We haven't had time to find a place yet..."
Tang Ning said: "Leave it to me."
Imperial Physician Sun was stunned for a moment: "County Lord?"
He wanted to say that the thing was bloody and scary, and it was unlucky to drop it like this, so he should just find a place to bury it, but when he looked at Tang Ning's extraordinarily quiet eyes, there was no trace of warmth in her dark eyes. , he didn’t dare to ask any more questions and quickly nodded and agreed: “Okay, I’ll have someone bring it to you later.”
After Dr. Sun left, Tang Ning looked at Gu Helian and said, "Uncle Gu, you are injured. You have stayed up all night. It's time to rest."
Just as Gu Helian opened her mouth to speak, she heard Tang Ning say: "I'm not at ease with my aunt. She needs someone to accompany her when she wakes up next time when she becomes unstable. But I have other things to do. Can I trouble Uncle Gu?" Will you guard my aunt for me and temporarily live in the west wing of this courtyard?"
Gu Helian: "..." When the words of rejection came to his lips, he swallowed them back and said, "Since you have already spoken, I will reluctantly stay here for a few days."
Tang Ning didn't pay attention to his pretense of respect: "Thank you very much, Uncle Gu."
Gu Helian coughed. After all, her face had not yet been cultivated enough, so she changed the subject with a dark blush: "By the way, why did you care about Dr. Sun's need for the dead stillbirth?"
"Naturally send him to where he should go."
It makes no sense that my aunt is grieving, but some people can stay in prison peacefully.
What Xie Tianyu did made Tang Ning hate him so much, and for the first time she had dark and vicious thoughts. She wanted Xie Tianyu to see with his own eyes the evil he had done, and to let him see with his own eyes the relatives he had killed. Don't you care about this?
She wanted to see if he was really that hard-hearted!
…
Xiao Yan arranged for the Empress Dowager and watched Madam Qin perform acupuncture on her. The old man was lying on the bed with her eyes closed and had not yet woken up. Her breathing was a little heavy and she seemed to be in a nightmare. Her eyelids kept trembling slightly, even when she fell asleep. There has never been peace.
"I have been deliberately controlling the Empress Dowager's hysteria. There are many people in the palace and she cannot be too sober, otherwise His Majesty will not be able to tolerate her. Now that the governor has taken her out, I will find a way to give her injections and medicine. Although I still can’t recognize people for a short period of time, but it won’t get worse.”
After Mrs. Qin finished using the needle, the old man's breathing became smoother.
Xiao Yan lowered his eyes and looked at the person on the bed: "It's okay if she doesn't recognize him."
I'm afraid my grandma wouldn't be able to recognize his current appearance, and waking up might not be a good thing for her. She might not be able to bear the events of the past once again.
"Take care of her slowly, as long as she is healthy and well."
When Xiao Yan and Mrs. Qin came out, it was already bright outside. Jinyun walked up and told them about Empress Lu's visit to the Empress Dowager's palace.
"After the news from Prince Cheng's Palace reached Fengxi Palace, there was no response from Empress Lu. She neither sent a message nor behaved unusually. She just went to the Empress Dowager's Palace after dawn. Lord Governor, did we think wrong before? Already?"
If Xie Yin was really related to Empress Lu, how could she sit still?
Xiao Yan looked at him when he heard this: "She didn't do anything?"
Jinyun shook his head: "No."
That would be interesting.
Xiao Yan twirled his fingers lightly, his eyebrows slightly raised with a hint of thoughtfulness.
Queen Lu made no move, or maybe he guessed wrong. Xie Tianyu's matter had nothing to do with her. She knew nothing about Xie Yin's life experience, so she had no fear.
Otherwise, Queen Lu was determined that even if Xie Tianyu was convicted and charged with treason, even if there was no way to survive, he would never betray her.
Xiao Yan glanced at the morning light that was spreading across the horizon. The rising sun made the storm and rain last night seem like they had never happened before.
Empress Lu has lived in the harem for many years. After Emperor An ascended the throne, it was difficult for Prince Cheng to enter the harem. If the two of them had contact in the early years, they would not dare to interact frequently. But after he returned to the palace and took over the palace defense, the two of them never met more than five fingers apart in private. Otherwise it would be impossible to hide it from him.
In other words, even if these two people really had an adulterous relationship, their adultery would have already distanced them.
A high-ranking empress in the middle palace who has a husband and children, and a loving and tender princess who hugs her, even if it is false, it may not make the lie come true.
Why does Queen Lu think that King Cheng can never betray for decades?
Is she certain of Prince Cheng's "deep affection" for her, or is there something else that makes her so fearless?
Xiao Yan suddenly sneered. If he hadn't guessed wrong, then there was something else hidden between King Cheng and the Queen. He said to Jinyun: "Continue to send people to keep an eye on Fengxi Palace, and Princess Huan will also keep some people there." Some people, and find someone to poke the Fourth Prince."
The queen is stable, but the fourth prince may not be.
If you dig around, you might be able to find something interesting.
Jinyun nodded and agreed: "By the way, Lord Governor, the girl has asked someone to send something over, and she wants the Lord Governor to help deliver it to Prince Cheng."
Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows: "What?"
Jinyun murmured something in a low voice. Seeing Madam Qin's face full of astonishment, he lowered his voice.
"Hang Li has already handed the things to the people in the mansion, saying that the girl told him to hand them over to King Cheng with his own hands and watch him open them with his own eyes. Lord Governor, do we...shall we give them away?"
Xiao Yan didn't expect that the begonia flower in his house would prick a person and be covered in thorns. He still remembered that she was timid and scared when they first met her. She cried like a kitten when she was scared. But now she understands Tooth for tooth.
"Since it's the girl's order, I naturally have to deliver it and have it wrapped up. I'll find a good time, preferably in the dead of night, so that I can surprise King Cheng."
Jinyun: "..."
Madam Qin: "..."
Are you sure it's a surprise?
Xiao Yan looked at the flowers and trees in full bloom not far away, and seemed to see Xiao Begonia's wide-eyed face pretending to be fierce. He suddenly missed his little girl.
