Qin Wanyi was startled by his words, but when she saw the murderous intent in Shen Jingci's eyes from the corner of her eye, she suddenly broke into a cold sweat.
Although she couldn't figure out what was going on at this moment, Qin Wanyi knew that she was afraid that a disaster was coming.
Fortunately, she was smart. When the doctor went to get the medicine with the maid, she immediately frowned and said, "Concubine, can I go clean my hands?"
Seeing that she didn't seem to be faking it, and that the wise concubine had something to say to Shen Jingci in private, she waved her hand indifferently and let her go.
Qin Wanyi ran as fast as she could as soon as she left the door, and soon a maid was chasing after her. Fortunately, this place was not far from Concubine Ye's palace, so the maid could not catch up, so Qin Wanyi escaped.
After Qin Wanyi said all this, she suddenly became weak and fell softly into Xie Ruzhuo's arms.
Concubine Ye's expression had already changed, and she said angrily, "Such a thing could happen!" After saying that, she asked Xie Ruzhuo and the maid beside her to look at Qin Wanyi, and immediately stood up and walked out.
The unconscious Qin Wanyi was still holding Xie Ruzhuo's hand tightly, her face was wet with sweat, and her face was extremely pale.
Xie Ruzhuo held her hand and sat on the edge of the bed, suddenly thinking of himself in his previous life. At that time, she was also harmed by Shen Jingci, but she didn't know who the real culprit was at that time, and she regarded Shen Jingci as a confidant. She held her hand like this when she was bleeding heavily, and kept crying about the misfortune of the child. .
At that time, was Shen Jingci as happy as she was with Qin Wanyi today
While she was thinking randomly, she heard the maid outside crying something. After a while, the whole palace returned to calm.
After a while, an imperial doctor was summoned. After taking Qin Wanyi's pulse, he stroked his beard and said, "Princess Qi was just frightened, nothing serious."
Xie Ruzhuo couldn't help but ask more, "Is this child important?"
The imperial doctor shook his head and said with a smile, "The child is safe, Princess, don't worry."
After Xie Ruzhuo thanked the imperial doctor, he saw Concubine Ye walking in again.
The imperial doctor soon followed the palace people down to prescribe the medicine, and the remaining people in the palace were all reliable people.
Xie Ruzhuo asked in a low voice, "Concubine, what's wrong?"
Concubine Ye was angry at the time, but she quickly realized the situation. She shook her head and sighed, "This matter of Concubine Qi is a bit tricky. Now we have no evidence. We went there so rashly and couldn't find out anything." .”
Xie Ruzhuo was stunned for a moment, then understood instantly.
Indeed, what happened today, coming from Qin Wanyi's mouth, was indeed extremely dangerous.
But if Concubine Ye really wanted to accuse Concubine Xian and Shen Jingci, there would be no evidence at all.
Qin Wanyi did not drink the medicine prescribed by the imperial doctor, so the concubine Xian could completely deny it, saying that the imperial doctor prescribed anti-fetal medicine, and take a bite of Qin Wanyi's medicine.
So what happened today, Qin Wanyi was destined to suffer the loss of being dumb.
Thinking about it, Xie Ruzhuo sighed again. For some reason, she felt that this woman was very pitiful now. How similar she was to her in her previous life.
Concubine Ye patted her on the shoulder and said, "I have sent a message to Concubine Xian, saying that I have something to discuss with Princess Qi, so I invited her over temporarily. Concubine Xian did not dare to say anything. I just waited. After she goes back—"
Having said this, Concubine Ye glanced at Qin Wanyi on the bed, shook her head, and walked out.
Xie Ruzhuo sighed in his heart, and when he saw Qin Wanyi's pale face, he couldn't help but feel sympathy.
Qin Wanyi woke up soon. She trembled all over at first, and then calmed down inexplicably when she saw Xie Ruzhuo. She asked softly, "Thank you, Princess Jing, but you don't know about the child in my belly?"
Her voice was still weak, so Xie Ruzhuo couldn't help softening his voice and said soothingly, "Don't worry, Sister-in-law, the fetus in your belly is fine."
With that said, she repeated what Concubine Ye had told her, and said, "Sister-in-law, it's better to pretend that this incident didn't happen today. After all, there is no evidence for this kind of thing, and not many people will believe it."
Qin Wanyi's eyes felt sad, she clenched her fists hard and murmured, "Is there really no other way?"
Xie Ruzhuo's heart ached when he saw her like this, and he couldn't help but said, "There is a way, let's make peace!"
Hearing this, Qin Wanyi's eyes widened immediately and she looked at her in disbelief.
As soon as Xie Ruzhuo said these two words, he regretted his recklessness. But after seeing Qin Wanyi's appearance, she simply became cruel and gritted her teeth to finish the sentence, "Although you are marrying a prince, the laws of our dynasty clearly stipulate that if a concubine is spoiled and her wife is destroyed, a woman has the right to divorce her. It doesn’t matter whether the person you marry is high or low.”
Qin Wanyi didn't expect Xie Ruzhuo to say such ridiculous things, but she opened her mouth to say something and felt that although it was a bit ridiculous, it was not necessarily impossible. Whatever he wanted to say, he took it back.
After a while, Qin Wanyi struggled to get up from the bed, saluted Xie Ruzhuo solemnly, and said, "If it hadn't been for Princess Jing's advice that day, I might not have been able to save the baby in my belly. I will never forget my life-saving grace."
Xie Ruzhuo avoided her body, helped her up and said, "As a mother, I naturally know the importance of children."
Qin Wanyi stopped talking and paused before saying, "I'm going back first. I'll finish the matter another day and come to talk to you again. Then I'd like to ask the princess not to kick me out."
Hearing this, Xie Ruzhuo knew her plan and said with a smile, "Definitely not."
After Qin Wanyi left, Xie Ruzhuo walked out of the inner hall and saw Concubine Ye sitting on a golden nanmu carved chair drinking tea.
Xie Ruzhuo came out and without waiting for Concubine Ye to ask, he walked over obediently and told Qin Wanyi exactly what he had said. After finishing speaking, he added another sentence, "My daughter-in-law was reckless for a moment, and she asked her mother and concubine to punish her."
Concubine Ye did not show any surprise, she just sighed, "I heard it really true from outside just now. If I really wanted to blame you, I would have gone just now. Well, what you said may not be a good idea. It's just that. This virtuous concubine is also very vicious, I wonder what kind of benefits this girl from the Shen family promised her."
Xie Ruzhuo wiped the sweat in his heart and secretly lamented that Concubine Ye could see things so clearly, but she didn't show it at all on her face. She only said, "I think the benefits are not low. Otherwise, just on the charge of murdering the emperor's heir, It’s enough for the virtuous concubine to be demoted from her current position. What’s more, she is murdering her own grandson.”
In fact, she was also very curious about what methods Shen Jingci used to make the virtuous concubine willing to abandon the child in Qin Wanyi's belly.
In her previous life, she remembered that this empress cared very much about her grandson.
Concubine Ye didn't want to talk about this matter anymore. She just said, "It seems that this New Year will not be successful again."
Hearing what she said, Xie Ruzhuo felt a little guilty because he said, "Mother, concubine, my daughter-in-law didn't consider this matter well."
"That's all, my mother knows that you also have good intentions. King Qi has done evil, and the virtuous concubine is also making trouble. You can't be blamed for this." After saying that, Concubine Ye changed the subject again and said with a smile, "You didn't mean to Are you looking for Ning'er? Go quickly."
When she said this, Xie Ruzhuo knew that Concubine Ye was going to get away from her. He immediately stood up and said with a smile, "Look, my daughter-in-law has only been with you for a while, and you are about to drive her away. I won't obey."
Seeing her acting coquettishly towards her, Concubine Ye patted her lightly, then turned to the palace servants around her and said, "You see, this is how you get an advantage and behave well. I'm afraid that she will be troubled by accompanying me, an old woman, so I kindly let her go." She went to have fun, and she complained about it.”
Xie Ruzhuo was so busy that he smiled and said, "What are you talking about, my concubine? You are not an old woman, you are still young."
After chatting and joking for a while, Xie Ruzhuo bowed, stood up and left.
By the time she was ready to return home from Xiao Xinning, it was already afternoon.
When I left the palace, I saw the setting sun turning red, which was the time when dusk followed night.
The sunset is infinitely beautiful, but it’s almost dusk.
After returning home, the sky had completely darkened.
As soon as the carriage stopped at the second gate, a man came out, carrying a lotus-shaped wind lantern. He walked to the carriage and helped her down.
Xie Ruzhuo smiled, then suddenly had bad intentions, and directly put a pair of lotus-rooted arms through his body and hooked Xiao Junxi's neck.
Seeing this, why didn't Xiao Junxi understand what she meant? He smiled slightly immediately, picked her up and said softly, "Hold me."
Xie Ruzhuo originally wanted to tease him, but who knew that the latter actually hugged him. Xie Ruzhuo immediately blushed, but couldn't help but put her arms around his neck and said angrily, "You are in public, don't be ashamed."
Xiao Junxi chuckled lightly and said, "My husband is just following my wife's orders, why shouldn't I be ashamed to say so? Besides, your eye saw a large crowd?"
After he said this, he looked around consciously.
The maids who were waiting around saw the look in his eyes and dispersed around in a very busy manner, as if they had not seen anything.
Xie Ruzhuo immediately glared at him, buried his head in his arms, and bit his neck in retaliation.
Xiao Junxi felt pain and glanced at his little wife. After feeling the cold wind outside, she quickly quickened her pace.
After entering the house, the two of them were immediately surrounded by warmth. Xie Ruzhuo's feet were a little cold when he was sitting on the carriage, and he couldn't help but sigh in comfort at this moment.
Xiao Junxi felt the coolness on her body. After placing her on the bed, she began to take off her coat one by one.
After Jiang Zhu helped Xie Ruzhuo wash up, he wisely stepped out and soon the two of them were left in the room.
The wind outside was still blowing in my ears, and Xie Ruzhuo was already nestled in the bed.
After Xiao Junxi wiped her face, leaving only a palace lantern, she got into bed and put down the curtain.
The next moment, Xie Ruzhuo felt her feet being lifted up. She was a little sleepy. Now she opened her eyes a little and saw Xiao Junxi sitting at the foot of the bed, with a pair of hands on her feet. Pressing.
She didn't walk much during the day today, but the pregnant woman's legs were extremely swollen, which also made her legs and feet very tired.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Junxi was so careful that she even felt this.
As he thought about it, Xie Ruzhuo was so moved that he subconsciously wanted to take his foot back, but Xiao Junxi raised her head and said softly, "But does it hurt you?"
Xie Ruzhuo quickly shook his head and said, "It doesn't hurt. It's late at night, so go to sleep."
The two of them have probably been together for a long time, and Xie Ruzhuo is now increasingly unable to express his gratitude. Those touches are in my heart but I can't express them.
She didn't say anything, but Xiao Junxi felt it, rubbed her white and tender feet, and said softly, "Don't move, it will be fine in a while."
