Slandered for Infertility, She Gets Morning Sickness After Provoking the Prince

In her previous life, Fang Qingyue's family was destroyed, and she married into the Marquis's mansion as a concubine through a marriage contract. Others thought she was lucky, that the Marq...

Chapter 29 Before the Hongmen Banquet

Seeing that Fang Qingyue ignored him at all, Shen Yuhan suddenly felt a little jealous.

He walked over, straddled Fang Qingyue, pressed his long legs against her waist and abdomen, and reached out to pinch her cheeks.

"Do you really want to investigate your father's death so badly?"

Fang Qingyue's cheeks were pinched by him until they were round, so she had to open her mouth slightly and look at him straight.

The bed curtain hung down from above Shen Yuhan's head, covering both of them.

He looked down at her, his face full of concern.

"Yes." Fang Qingyue said with some difficulty, "The Fang family was wiped out. If the investigation is not completed one day, I will be restless."

"I will investigate Jia Yinghua's side." Shen Yuhan said coldly, "You are not allowed to have too much contact with him."

Today's incident with Shen Qiu Nian also made Fang Qingyue physically and mentally exhausted. She had originally planned to put this matter aside for the time being.

Hearing this, she looked up in surprise.

A mixture of emotions suddenly arose in Fang Qingyue's heart, making her eyes a little sore.

I felt like my heart was being soaked in warm sugar water and was almost melting.

"Thank you, sir."

"You're welcome." Shen Yuhan leaned over and bit Fang Qingyue's lips fiercely. "But as for Jia Yinghua, you need to stay away from him."

God knows how upset he felt when he heard from Chi Feng today that Fang Qingyue and Jia Yinghua had a very pleasant conversation.

Even if she was just a concubine, she was still his woman. He would never allow Fang Qingyue to have any relationship with other men.

Fang Qingyue hooked her arms around Shen Yuhan's neck and said hoarsely between kisses, "I understand, sir."

The two of them spent the night together, and the next morning, Shen Yuhan sent Chi Feng and Han Qing to investigate the matter privately.

This is an old case, and it would be extremely troublesome to change the confession.

Not only does he need to investigate a lot of things, but the collusion between the people behind the scenes will also take up a lot of his time.

However, after investigating for several days, Shen Yuhan really found out a lot of things.

After the Fang Xifu case, the official who had exposed Fang Xifu resigned early and returned home, but his son stayed in Beijing and is now a favorite of the prime minister.

There were even rumors that the prime minister wanted to marry his niece to this man.

In addition, there are several people who previously held low-ranking officials but have now become favorites in the emperor's eyes. Although they did not rise to the top overnight, their official careers have been extremely smooth.

After listening to the historical report, Shen Yuhan's face became even gloomier.

Since this matter involves so many officials, it would be extremely difficult to change their confession.

Even with his identity as the King of Jian'an, there would certainly be countless people behind the scenes trying to suppress this matter completely.

Therefore, Shen Yuhan only ordered Han Qing to continue the investigation, but did not tell Fang Qingyue about this.

At the same time, Shen Yuhan's actions naturally caught the attention of many people.

As the King of Jian'an, he held immense power, and many people in the capital had always been eyeing his power.

Even though this matter was not publicized, the Prime Minister's Office still noticed it.

On the evening the Prime Minister received the news, several officials were invited to attend a banquet at the Prime Minister's residence.

The banquet in the mansion did not end until late at night. Before leaving, an official said to the Prime Minister, "I heard that there have been voices coming from the Fang family's old house these past few days, and someone even specially repaired the Fang family's old house."

“If this is really the case, I’m afraid there are still bloodlines left in the Fang family, and we have to eliminate them.”

Upon hearing this, a gloomy look flashed across Zhou Shiran's face.

"Don't worry, I'll have someone investigate this." He gripped the armrest of the armchair tightly, his wrinkled face filled with cunning and a hint of ruthlessness. "No matter who wants to commit this crime, it's impossible. Just as I made them bear the accusation of treason, I can kill the remaining members of the Fang family today by my own hands."

So what if Shen Yuhan investigates this matter?

A mere king of a different surname, does he really think that he is a vegetarian after serving in the court for so many years and accumulating so many connections?

It didn't take long for the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion to investigate the matter thoroughly.

When Zhou Shiran heard that Fang Xifu's daughter Fang Qingyue was living in the mansion, a sarcastic sneer appeared on his lips.

She is just a woman. Does she really think that she can overturn the case by returning to the capital?

This time he wanted to let Fang Qingyue see what it meant to eradicate the problem completely.

Fang Qingyue has been making ointment for Shen Yuhan in her room these days.

She just learned from Shen Yuhan's friend that the Inspectorate's investigation into the case was not smooth sailing.

As the leader, Shen Yuhan was regarded as a thorn in the eyes and a thorn in the flesh by those people, and people often attacked Shen Yuhan.

Although Shen Yuhan has superb martial arts skills and is always protected by secret guards, it is difficult for ordinary assassins to get close to Shen Yuhan, but once a wound is left, it will take a long time to heal.

Because she was worried about Shen Yuhan's condition, she went to the old doctor to ask for a prescription and prepared to make some ointment for Shen Yuhan.

Although this ointment cannot heal bones or revive the dead, it can still be used in emergencies.

She was busy when she suddenly heard someone knocking on the door.

Fang Qingyue walked over and opened the door, and saw that the person standing outside was actually a eunuch.

The man was clean-shaven and beardless. He saw Fang Qingyue and said in a shrill voice, "You are Fang Xifu's daughter, Fang Qingyue, right?"

Fang Qingyue bowed hurriedly and said, "That's right. I wonder what brings you here, sir?"

"We are here on the orders of the Imperial Concubine to invite you to the palace banquet." The eunuch looked at Fang Qingyue with disdain and said condescendingly, "Although Fang Xifu is a traitor and you are the daughter of a criminal, the Imperial Concubine is kind-hearted, and since Heaven is merciful, I will not implicate you in this matter."
