Chapter 900 Meddlesome

Bu Shengyan was quite surprised when she saw such a calculation method for the first time.

She was very convinced of the imperial concubine's ability to calculate.

Since the imperial concubine said it was a boy, it must be a boy.

In fact, she doesn't have much idea about whether it is a son or a daughter. After all, they are all her children and she will love them equally.

She thanked the imperial concubine again and returned the copper coin to her.

Xiao Xixi said, "This is lucky money. Carry it with you and it will ensure that you and your unborn baby are safe and sound."

Bu Shengyan held the lucky money in her hand and felt even more grateful.

She really wanted to repay the other party, but she knew that the imperial concubine had everything she needed now, so she could only keep this gratitude in her heart and plan to repay the imperial concubine when she had the chance in the future.

…

Bu Shengyan returned to the palace, packed up the small items she had made, and wrote another letter, in which she wrote that she was pregnant with a son.

She asked the palace guards to deliver these things to the King of England.

The guards rode fast horses, traveling day and night, and finally caught up with the King of England on the fifth day.

Luo Yechen took the bag handed to him by the guard and first asked some questions about the princess. He felt relieved to know that the princess was fine.

He opened the bag and took out everything inside.

Purses, insoles, and fan covers.

One look at the stitching tells you it was made by the British princess herself.

The embroiderers in the palace have superb skills and their stitches are very fine and neat.

The stitching of the things in Luo Yechen's hand was not crooked, but there were occasional missed stitches. It was obvious that he seldom did this kind of work and his professional skills were very unskilled.

Luo Yechen grinned at these things, then picked up the letter at the bottom.

The first half of the letter was all about the Princess's instructions to the King, and only the last sentence talked about herself.

She said she was pregnant with a son and asked him to think of a name for him when he had time.

Luo Yechen was stunned.

The child hasn't even been born yet, how does the princess know it will be a son?

Even if the diagnosis is made by an imperial physician, there may be misdiagnosis.

But since the princess said so, Luo Yechen would just believe her for once.

He spent the rest of the journey thinking about the name.

Since he is a son, the name should be more domineering.

For example, Luo Aotian, or Luo Ritian, or Luo Batian...

…

In the palace.

Chen Jieyu's illness became more and more serious. Not only was the skin on her face red, swollen and itchy, but many red rashes also began to appear on her body.

The imperial doctors tried everything they could to cure her illness but failed.

She couldn't help but scratch it, but the more she scratched, the more itchy it became. After her skin was scratched, it gradually became inflamed and ulcerated, and the symptoms became more and more serious.

Concubine Yao and Concubine Min investigated for a while but could not find out the reason.

There are many such unsolved cases in the palace that have never been solved in the end. The case of Concubine Chen is not the first one, and it will not be the last.

Logically speaking, since we can't find out the truth, we can just let it go.

But the biggest characteristic of Yao Jieyu is her extremely strong curiosity.

She could guess that Concubine Chen was murdered by someone, but she didn't know who the real murderer was.

This made her feel as if her heart was being scratched by a dozen cats' claws, and she felt extremely itchy.

She must find out who the real culprit is, otherwise she won't be able to sleep well at night.

Whenever Concubine Yao had free time, she would run to Ningxin Palace to check on Concubine Chen and interrogate the people serving Concubine Chen to see if she could find any useful clues.

Because someone from the Yao family came today, Concubine Yao was delayed for a while.

By the time she arrived at Ningxin Palace, it was already evening.

She first went to see Concubine Chen, and seeing that she was still in a coma, she did not disturb her.

She tiptoed out of the bedroom and went to other rooms to search for clues.

Rouju was originally following behind her. When she heard that Concubine Min was coming, she immediately said to Concubine Yao, "Please wait a moment," and hurriedly walked towards the side hall.

Yao Jieyu was the only one left in the corridor.

Yao Jieyu did not stand still as Rouju instructed, but wandered around alone.

Before she knew it, she was at the door to the kitchenette.

There happened to be no one around, so Concubine Yao went straight into the small kitchen.

There was a medicine pot on the stove, the medicine inside had been poured out, leaving only some residue.

Yao Jieyu reached out and touched the medicine jar. It was still warm, probably because the medicine had just been poured out.

She had an idea and pulled out a handkerchief from her sleeve. She poured out some of the residue in the medicine jar, picked it up with the handkerchief, and stuffed it carefully into her sleeve.

After doing all this, Concubine Yao put the medicine jar back to its original place.

She was about to leave, but the moment she turned around, she saw Concubine Min standing quietly outside the door.

Yao Jieyu was so frightened that her heart almost stopped.

When did this person come? Why didn't he make any sound?!

Yao Jieyu pressed her chest, trying to suppress her rapid heartbeat.

She asked with lingering fear: "You are here?"

Concubine Min smiled and said, "I heard from Rouju that you were here, so I came to find you."

She paused, then continued, "What were you doing just now?"

Only then did Yao Jieyu remember what she had just done.

Judging from Concubine Min's position, she should have seen all of Concubine Yao's actions.

This made Concubine Yao feel a little uneasy.

She swallowed hard and said dryly, "Nothing, I just want to collect some clues to see if I can find out why Concubine Chen is sick."

Concubine Min stepped over the threshold and walked into the small kitchen gracefully: "You seem to care a lot about Concubine Chen. Do you have a good relationship?"

Yao Jieyu: "We are all sisters, so it's better to help as much as possible."

Concubine Min smiled with an ambiguous tone: "You are so kind."

Yao Jieyu smiled awkwardly: "You are also kind-hearted. By the way, are you here to visit Chen Jieyu as well? Let's go and see her together."

She walked out, and when she passed by Concubine Min, she was grabbed by the arm by Concubine Min.

Yao Jieyu had to stop and look back at her.

"What's wrong?"

The smile on Concubine Min's face gradually disappeared, and she said coldly: "It's a pity that good intentions may not always be rewarded."

When Concubine Yao saw this, her heart skipped a beat and she realized something was wrong.

“How come…”

She stopped abruptly before she could finish her words.

A black pill popped out of Concubine Min's hand and flew straight into Concubine Yao's mouth, interrupting her words.

Yao Jieyu was horrified and wanted to spit out the pill.

But the pill was very strange.

As soon as it entered her mouth, it slid into her esophagus on its own.

Then she felt a black screen in front of her eyes and fell forward.

Concubine Min looked coldly at Concubine Yao who was lying unconscious on the ground. Her expression didn't seem like she was looking at a person, but more like she was looking at an unpleasant item. Her eyes were full of criticism and disgust.

She bent down, reached out and took the bag of medicine residue from Concubine Yao's sleeve, and said coldly.

"have a finger in the pie."
