Hu Changshi looked at Shen Chen with some concern and asked, "Did the Marquis catch a cold?"
He always regarded himself as an elder and was very caring towards Chu Jingwu and Shen Chen.
Shen Chen shook his head and quickly turned the topic back to the main topic: "Sir, didn't you keep a close eye on him? He is now reaching out to others again..."
Speaking of this, Chu Jingwu was extremely angry: "I've already said it, this kind of person is simply a dog that can't change its nature, and never knows how to write the two words "admit mistakes"!"
Hu Changshi was obviously prepared for the conflict and gap between Chu Jingwu and his brother. He was not surprised to hear Chu Jingwu scolding so harshly. He just smiled faintly and echoed a few times. At the end, he sighed sincerely and looked at Shen Chen and Chu Jingwu very sincerely and said: "In the end, it's my fault. I was too careless. I thought the prince would always take this into consideration. However, I underestimated the prince's ambition and ability. I really didn't expect that he would collude with Princess Chang'an to do such a thing regardless of the consequences..."
Hu Changshi sighed and shook his head in grief: "This time when I go back, I will definitely tell the prince that the prince is indeed hopeless." He glanced at Chu Jingwu and Shen Chen again, and couldn't help asking: "By the way, did you know that the prince's wife had a miscarriage?"
Shen Chen and Chu Jingwu really didn't know. When they heard the news, they couldn't help but look at each other with shock in their eyes.
Miscarriage
I only heard that Princess Xianrong was pregnant, but after the gift was sent, I didn't hear any other news.
Judging from their expressions, it was clear that they didn't know. Hu Changshi couldn't help but sigh even more deeply, "The Crown Prince's Concubine is always worried and frightened. This time, after what happened to Third Master Xie, she became even more terrified. She was afraid that I would go back and tell the prince something, so she got angry and had a miscarriage. Now the Crown Prince is simply looking at me as a thorn in his side."
This is the beginning of complaining and distancing oneself from the matter.
I never realized before that Hu Changshi had this skill and his acting skills were so good.
Shen Chen glanced at Chu Jingwu and said calmly, "Brother and sister-in-law are too confused. Even if father is really angry with them, why would he want to kill them? If it really came to that, why would he specially send you here?"
Hu Changshi couldn't help but sigh: "That's exactly the truth, it's a pity that the prince doesn't want to listen."
Chu Jingwu glanced at him, then at Shen Chen, becoming more and more irritable: "Now that things have come to this, what are we going to do? Are we just going to let him go? This time he is plotting against Third Master Xie, who knows what he will do next!"
Hu Changshi quickly said, "No, no!" Seeing Shen Chen and Chu Jingwu both looking at him, he said, "I have asked the prince's secret guards to guard him closely. After this incident, I have been prepared and I already know the prince's character."
Shen Chen hummed, and after comforting Chu Jingwu, he said to Hu Changshi with a pleasant face: "Then it depends on you, sir. Father is worried that he will cause trouble in the capital, and has repeatedly warned us to keep an eye on him. After all, no one can afford it if something happens to him."
It seems that he hasn't become suspicious yet.
Hu Changshi nodded calmly and agreed. When he returned to the Linjiang Palace, he breathed a sigh of relief and told Chu Jingxing directly.
Chu Jingxing was discussing the matter of the imperial mausoleum with Princess Chang'an, and when he saw him coming, he asked, "What's going on?"
Princess Chang'an recalled what happened last time and asked, "Did you go to see Shen Chen and Chu Jingwu?"
The situation answered for him: "Yes, it's also a good idea to test those two guys."
Hu Changshi responded by cupping his hands, then smiled and said, "I have accomplished my mission."
That means Chu Jingwu and Shen Chen have no doubts.
Chu Jingxing sneered and remained calm: "I've already said it, if I didn't plot against Xie San, they would suspect that I had other purposes. But when I plotted against Xie San, they thought I had run out of tricks."
Princess Chang'an was thoughtful for a while before nodding. She asked Hu Changshi to sit down and showed him the list again before saying, "This is the final list. Please see if there is anything you need to add or delete."
Hu Changshi took the list and looked through it carefully, then shook his head: "No mistakes, let's leave it as it is."
Since there were no mistakes, Princess Chang'an took the list and nodded: "Then we will arrange it according to the original plan. Sir, do you have anything else to say?"
Hu Changshi thought for a moment and said, "Besides that, there is nothing else to tell you, but there is one thing... This matter must be kept strictly confidential. Not a single word of it can leak out, otherwise it will be ruined."
Chu Jingxing and Princess Chang'an looked at each other and saw the warning in each other's eyes.
Princess Chang'an was worried that Chu Jingxing would be rash and reveal his true colors in order to plot against Wei An and the others, but Chu Jingxing was concerned about Yuan Dong's matter: "There won't be any mistakes with the Prince Consort, right?"
Princess Chang'an shook her head: "The Prince Consort is a smart man, but his intelligence is limited. How could he guess what we were going to do? Moreover, now that Ah Sheng has had a miscarriage, he is so anxious about Ah Sheng that he doesn't know what to do. I have already asked him to take Ah Sheng out of the city on the pretext that Ah Sheng's illness can only be cured by a miracle doctor outside. He will leave the capital tomorrow. Before this, he has never left the mansion, and the people around him are also under strict surveillance. What else can he do?"
Of course Yuan Dong can do nothing about it.
Princess Chang'an is a woman of both kindness and authority, and she has the final say in the Princess's Mansion.
But he is also half of the investor in this mansion, and he didn't just live in this mansion for fun in the past.
As soon as Princess Chang'an left the palace, he asked his confidant beside him, "Has Wang Er's wife sent out all the news?"
Wang Er's wife originally helped in the kitchen, but later she was assigned to guard the corner gate.
She had always been a member of Nanny Yuan who lived next to the Princess Chang'an's mansion, so she was quite free.
The confidant nodded and said, "It has been sent out, but I'm afraid that after tonight, we can no longer send news out. I heard that the princess has strictly prohibited people from entering or leaving, and even the groceries have been purchased to last a month."
Yuan Dong lowered his eyes and hummed, then asked, "The princess hasn't come back yet?"
"Not yet." The confidant was a little worried: "Is there something wrong with the county lady?"
Yuan Dong, on the other hand, was not that worried. He shook his head and said, "Miscarriage is indeed harmful to the body, but Kong Gongfeng is a skilled doctor, so nothing will happen. Anyway... as long as Ah Sheng is fine, it's fine. We can talk about other things later."
He did not feel bad that his daughter had lost her child.
If this child were really alive, it would be painful.
