"Then let's keep Zhang for now."

Hearing this, Lin Chunhuan's heart settled down. He kept serving food to the prince and pouring out nice words like they were free, trying to make the prince laugh.

Just outside the door, Lu Fu frowned with some worry, "Mammy, why do I feel like the concubine has been acting strangely lately? Shouldn't she rest well and take care of the baby when she's pregnant?"

"Why does the Queen seem to be busier than before? And His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin, is he coming to the East Palace too frequently?"

Nanny Hong opened her mouth but said nothing, because it was not only Lu Fu who felt this way, she felt the same way.

But what the Empress was doing was kept secret even from the two of them. As servants, they couldn't ask any more questions unless their master said anything, but they were still worried.

Until one day, just as the King of Qin left, the Crown Prince returned to the East Palace. His face was so gloomy that it seemed as if black water was about to drip out. As soon as he entered the room, he threw Lin Chunhuan, who was more than seven months pregnant, onto the bed without saying a word.

Without listening to any explanation or dissuasion, he roughly tore off her thin panties.

Everyone knew that after Lin Chunhuan became pregnant, although the prince often came to Youran Courtyard, he never stayed overnight, and the two had never been close.

But when the clothes were torn open, glaring red marks appeared all over her body, and the wetness from the recent lovemaking could not be faked. Nanny Hong took a breath of cold air and quickly drove out the onlookers.

The prince tightly grasped the slender neck, his eyes bloodshot, "Bitch, you just can't stand the loneliness!"

"I trusted you so much!"

Facing the prince's uncontrolled roar, Lin Chunhuan did not react violently, but there was a hint of mockery in his eyes, "Master, are you going to kill your own child?"

The intermittent words spoken under suffocation made the Crown Prince's heart sink. He threw the person aside and said, "Pass on my order to confine Concubine Lin to the ancestral hall for life. After she gives birth, the child will be adopted by the Crown Princess."

"As for you, don't even think about coming out again in this lifetime!"

In her mind, 663 was so anxious that she was jumping up and down. She couldn't understand why Lin Chunhuan did this. No matter how she tried to stop him, he seemed to be deaf to her and continued to do as he pleased.

If it weren't for her actions, which essentially didn't delay the mission, 663 would have lost control and aborted the mission long ago!

The ancestral hall is dark and gloomy, and it is too cold to stay in during winter.

But at this time, no one cared about Lin Chunhuan. The prince went to the Qin Palace and made a fuss. Lin Yimiao almost collapsed after knowing about this, and the whole palace was in dire straits.

Although this matter was strictly forbidden to be spread, anyone who knew a little about the inside story knew that the King of Qin and the Crown Prince had completely broken up because of this incident. The relationship between the two was not only tit-for-tat in normal times, but also in the court, like mortal enemies!

The King of Qin was privately called a playboy, and he even did not spare his niece-in-law. To this, the King of Qin did not give any explanation, as if he had tacitly agreed to everything.

The day of delivery came as promised.

With the system's props, Lin Chunhuan didn't feel anything special. Everything went smoothly until the midwife said, "Mother and daughter are safe," and she finally closed her eyes.

"Sister Huan, the mission is over. I'm sending you off now."

In the last six months, Lin Chunhuan's actions had been a bit frantic. 663 didn't dare to delay at all and was ready to send him away immediately. This time, Lin Chunhuan didn't pretend to be deaf and responded softly, "Yeah."

And just before she lost consciousness, she bit the medicine hidden in her back teeth.

It's not a poison, but it will speed up blood circulation throughout the body. Even if the imperial physician comes to check, he won't be able to find anything.

The main courtyard of the East Palace.

The prince glanced at the little girl sleeping in her cradle. He couldn't describe the feeling in his heart. He only felt a pang of pain in his heart. He took a deep breath and turned his gaze away. "Give the child to the Crown Princess."

"From now on, the Crown Princess will raise this child."

Zhang, who had been timid behind him, brightened up when she heard this. She thanked him quickly and held the child in her arms with great care.

After being locked up for more than half a year, Zhang had become afraid and had finally learned the skill of reading people's expressions, which she despised the most.

Seeing the Crown Prince's expression, he stepped forward and called out to the person who brought the child, "How is Concubine Lin? Is she okay?"

really.

Upon hearing this, the prince seemed to be indifferent, but in fact, he couldn't bring the teacup in his hand to his mouth for a long time, and all his attention was focused on paying attention to the movements here.

The person who came responded, "Don't worry, Crown Princess, Concubine Lin is fine, and mother and daughter are safe."

"Hmph, the child's mother is the Crown Princess, how could anyone else be here!" The Crown Prince's cold snort made the man shudder and he apologized repeatedly.

However, before she could finish her words, another person rushed in. His hands and clothes were covered in blood, and his steps were so unsteady that he could hardly stand.

Seeing the newcomer's face, the prince didn't stand up, but his hands clenched unconsciously, "Lu Fu? Why are you running here when you can just serve your master?"

"Your Highness, my daughter is bleeding profusely and has passed away."

Lu Fu's voice was choked with sobs, and it took her a long time to finish her words.

The teacup in his hand fell to the ground with a clang, and the blood on the prince's face disappeared in an instant. "What did you say?"

Prince Qin's Palace.

The King of Qin stood by the door, staring at the gate of the palace. Although he did not move, his fingers were unconsciously clenched. They had been married for more than a year, and Lin Yimiao knew at a glance that this was a movement he would make when he was nervous.

He immediately covered his stomach and sneered, "Your Highness is really in a good mood."

"Your own princess is pregnant, yet the prince is worried about other women giving birth, without even considering whether he is qualified to do so."

Tiredly rubbing his brows, King Qin let out a long breath, "Miaomiao, stop making trouble."

"I'm making trouble?!"

Lin Yimiao seemed to be ignited by these words. She stood up and tugged at the sleeve of the King of Qin, "When you were having an affair with that little bitch, you didn't even think about my reputation!"

"If it was anyone else, it would be fine, but why her? Why her?"

Before Lin Yimiao's hysteria ended, the person sent by the King of Qin to investigate hurried in. He subconsciously glanced to the side before speaking, "Your Highness, the news has come out from inside."

"Concubine Lin gave birth to a daughter, but she bled profusely after childbirth and has passed away."

Lin Yimiao's tearing movements froze, and King Qin's eyes went dark.

"Gone? Who went?"

Lin Yimiao stepped forward and grabbed the messenger, breathing heavily, "Tell me clearly, who went?"

"Princess, please take care of the baby in your belly and accept your condolences." The man lowered his head, unable to bear to repeat the words.

However, after he finished speaking, Lin Yimiao in front of him rolled his eyes and fainted on the ground.
