Zhulan tapped her daughter's forehead and said, "I'm waiting for you to speak. What are you thinking about?"
Xue Han stretched out her fingers and hooked her mother's sleeve. "Mom, today, Concubine Liu in the Crown Prince's Mansion had a miscarriage. I was sitting opposite Concubine Liu and saw it clearly. It was all blood. Mom, it was all blood."
She was so frightened at the time that she was about to have a miscarriage. If she hadn't been holding the prince's second son in her arms, she would have fainted if she had covered the child's eyes with her hands.
Zhulan knew her adopted daughter well, so she didn't know what else she was going to say. "What else happened?"
Xue Han's heart was pounding. "You have always taught your daughter to be cautious. That's why I have never left Shui Po's side since I became pregnant. After I left the Prince's Mansion, Shui Po told me that she smelled several girls with the smell of medicine on them. One of them came running towards me. Shui Po secretly blocked them because we were in the Prince's Mansion, but she didn't make it public."
Zhulan was terrified. If it weren't for the water woman, Xuehan wouldn't have had a miscarriage today. She held her daughter's hand tightly and asked, "Have you mentioned this to the Crown Princess?"
Xue Han shook her head. "This matter involves a concubine who has a son in the Crown Prince's Mansion. I thought about it and didn't make it public. Shui Pozi also said that this matter is the Crown Prince's Mansion's business and it would be best to let the Crown Princess investigate. As an outsider, it's better for me to pretend that I don't know."
Zhu Lan thought to herself, this is because Xue Han didn't get into trouble. If something happened, it would not be solved this way. It involves the Crown Prince's Mansion, which is indeed difficult to handle. The Ning family is the Crown Prince's maternal family. "So it seems that what happened today was intentional, and the purpose is you."
Xue Han thought so too. Rong Chuan cherished her very much. If anything happened to her, the Crown Prince's Mansion would have to give an explanation. But Rong Chuan must have felt uncomfortable. "The tone of voice said it was directed at his daughter, but in fact it was directed at the Crown Prince."
Zhulan is pleased that her daughter has grown up. "So you have to be more careful. Just take care of the fetus this time. I have pushed some posts."
Xue Han nodded, "Yeah."
She was also very scared and felt uneasy when she came back. She was afraid that there might be something wrong with her eating. Fortunately, the imperial physician checked and found nothing was wrong.
Seeing that her daughter was tired and frightened today, Zhulan sat aside and motioned for her daughter to close her eyes and rest. Her daughter fell asleep with his hand still holding her. Zhulan was furious. She knew that her daughter would be plotted against after marrying into the Marquis's Mansion, and she had always been mentally prepared, but when it really happened, she was still angry.
Zhulan saw that her daughter frowned and slept very uneasily, so she raised her hand and patted her daughter like a child, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, mother is here."
Xue Han's frown slowly relaxed, but one hand was still holding her mother.
Zhulan was wondering who had done it. Based on her woman's intuition, she thought it was Zhang Yang. No, it should be the power behind Zhang Yang. They were plotting against the King of Qi, then the King of Liang, and now the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince's position was too much of a hindrance, and it would be more convenient to plot only if the Crown Prince was gone.
The most important thing is, whoever has the ability to cause trouble in the Prince's Mansion must be hiding deeper. Zhulan lowered her eyes. She believed in her own judgment and intuition. After enduring for so many years, she could not wait any longer.
In the palace, in the Zhengdian, the emperor was investigating faster. Today he was looking for his youngest daughter-in-law. As for his son's concubine, she concealed her pregnancy and thus ignored the trap. "Prince, what do you think?"
No matter how the prince looked at it, he felt ferocious in his heart. He thought that the Prince's Mansion was the cleanest, but today he was severely slapped in the face. "My son will investigate thoroughly and will not let anyone off."
Emperor, "There are not only these few people in your house. Check it out carefully."
He was shocked. He also participated in the cleaning of the Prince's Mansion. As a result, the Prince could not be in trouble and had a gloomy face. There were also many rats in the palace.
As soon as the prince left the government hall, he met his mother's female official. The female official stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, the Queen Mother has something to say to you."
The prince stopped and said, "You go ahead."
The female official said, "Concubine Liu's miscarriage has nothing to do with Prince Ning's wife. Today's incident is all due to the dispute between the crown princes."
The prince understood what his mother meant. Today's targeting of Zhou Xuehan was actually targeting her. His mother didn't want him to remember it. He was a little speechless. He really didn't take it to heart, but his mother immediately protected him. He could see that this younger sister-in-law occupied a very high position in his mother's heart. "I understand. I will go back and tell mother so that she doesn't have to worry."
The female official greeted, "Yes."
After the prince and the other female officials left, he thought of Concubine Liu, this restless concubine who had kept her pregnancy a secret for three months. He knew why, and she had been scheming and scheming, and in the end, she had harmed him. If he had told him, he would have sent someone to follow her, and she would not have been schemed against today.
It was too late for Zhou Shuren to find out. When he returned home, he did not see his wife. He frowned and asked the housekeeper, only then did he know that his wife was in Ninghou Mansion and that something had happened to his daughter.
Zhou Shuren did not change his official uniform. He sat on the chair, and took advantage of his face to make Chang Yi, who followed him, shrink his neck to reduce his presence.
Chang Yi swallowed his saliva. His father's current momentum was amazing. He rarely saw his father angry. His father's current look made him want to run away.
Zhou Shuren thought for a while before he got up to change his clothes. When he came out, he saw Changyi still there. "Why are you sitting there stupidly instead of changing your clothes?"
Chang Yi looked at his father carefully. His father had returned to his previous appearance. The appearance just now seemed like an illusion. Before his father became an official, he told himself that he could offend anyone but not his father. He knew that his father was narrow-minded, very narrow-minded. "Dad, are you going to pick up Mom?"
Zhou Shuren hummed, "Each room can eat on their own today."
Having said that, Zhou Shuren quickly left with Jinyan.
Chang Yi waited until his father left, then he touched his forehead, let out a breath, and then shuddered again. This capital city was too scary.
At Ninghou Mansion, Rongchuan returned home and found out that his wife had a miscarriage, all because Xuehan stopped him from telling Rongchuan.
Zhulan walked out of the room and sat on a chair, recalling Rongchuan's expression. Xuehan was Rongchuan's weak spot, and if this weak spot was touched, Rongchuan would not endure it.
Inside the room, Xue Han took Rong Chuan's hand and shook it gently, "Don't be silent with a gloomy face. I'm the one who was frightened. Do you want to scare me now too?"
Rong Chuan was unwilling to scare Xue Han, but he couldn't laugh, "I should have protected you better. I knew that you would face calculations and dangers if you married me, but I didn't protect you well."
Rongchuan regretted marrying Xue Han too early. He could wait for two years, but he would rather face the conspiracy alone.
Xue Han was frightened, but she recovered. She was very strong inside. "Don't be like this. It makes me uncomfortable. I was also very cautious. Look, I have dodged it now."
Rong Chuan was afraid. He had gotten away with it this time, but what about the next time? As long as the prince didn't succeed to the throne, the Ning family would be the target, and things would only get worse in the future. He held his wife's hand tightly, his eyes deep, and he would chop off whoever made a move.
