Mrs. Qin's words made Princess Rui, who was already suspicious, feel even more that something was wrong.
However, Princess Rui still maintained her status and could not do such things as chasing after him, spying on him, or eavesdropping on him.
But I completely lost the mood to go shopping, so I went home without buying anything.
After sending Madam Qin home, Princess Rui returned to the palace. After thinking about it over and over again, she felt that Prince Rui must be hiding something from her this time.
Although she didn't think there was anything wrong with their relationship, she was still worried that Prince Rui had a mistress.
Of course, compared to the concubine, she was more worried that Prince Rui might act on impulse and form cliques to do something stupid that might cost his entire family their lives.
The more she thought about it, the more upset she became. She wanted to find someone to talk to, but she looked around and didn't see Madam Xue.
"Where is Madam Xue? I'm back, but she's still nowhere to be seen?" asked Princess Rui.
Hearing her say this, a servant immediately ran to look for Nanny Xue.
As a result, before Princess Rui arrived, she heard a lot of noise and chaos outside.
"What happened outside?" Princess Rui frowned and asked, "What's going on lately? The prince is a real worry to me, and everyone at home is also a worry to me."
Before she finished her words, the maid who had just run to find Nanny Xue suddenly ran in.
Her face was pale, her hair was disheveled, her head and face were covered in cold sweat, and her hands were shaking uncontrollably.
The maid ran in and fell to her knees in front of Princess Rui, trembling like a sieve, saying, "Your Majesty, no, it's not good. Madam Xue, she, she..."
Having said this, the maidservant couldn't help but start to chatter, and couldn't say the rest of the words smoothly.
Nanny Xue is the wet nurse of Princess Rui, and also the person closest to her. The relationship between master and servant is extraordinary.
Seeing the maidservant looking like she had seen a ghost, Princess Rui immediately became anxious.
"What's wrong, Aunt Xue? Tell me!
"Come here, is there anyone who can explain this clearly?"
Someone came in from outside and said, "Your Majesty, Madam Xue... I'm afraid she's no longer useful..."
"What happened?" Princess Rui was startled and stood up suddenly. "It was fine at noon, how come it suddenly stopped working?
"Mammy is sick? Why don't you go get a doctor right away instead of making a fuss outside?"
The visitor also fell to his knees with a thud and kowtowed, saying, "Your Majesty, please accept my condolences. Madam Xue, Madam Xue... committed suicide in her room."
When the maid went to look for someone just now, the first place she went to was Madam Xue's room.
As the wet nurse of Princess Rui, Madam Xue had her own room in the palace.
The maid thought she was old and had overslept during her nap, so she went straight to her room to look for her.
She knocked on the door a few times, but there was no response from inside. The half-closed door creaked open by itself.
The maid saw at first glance the embroidered cushion rolling on the ground and a pair of feet hanging in the air with the insteps stretched straight.
She was terrified, but her feet seemed to be nailed to the ground. Her eyes looked up uncontrollably and met Xue Ma's pale face head-on. She was so scared that she fell to the ground and screamed wildly.
The others were attracted by the maid's cries and were frightened when they saw the situation in the room.
Relying on their numbers, the brave ones rushed in and put Madam Xue down, wanting to see if she could still be saved.
But Nanny Xue's body was already cold and stiff, and there was no room for recovery.
Princess Rui's body swayed a few times and was quickly supported by the people around her.
"Why on earth did this happen..." Two lines of tears fell from Princess Rui's eyes. She kept repeating, "Wasn't she fine at noon? Why didn't she tell me what was wrong? Why did she have to take such an extreme approach..."
The servants in the room knelt on the ground.
"Your Majesty, I express my condolences!"
"My lady, please take care of yourself!"
Princess Rui finally recovered a little and insisted on going over to take a look.
The servants knelt on the ground again to stop them.
But Princess Rui refused to listen and insisted on going.
"Mammy has always been so sincere to me. How could I not send her off for the last time?"
The servants had no choice but to accompany Princess Rui to Nanny Xue's room.
As soon as Princess Rui approached, she discovered that there seemed to be something stuffed inside the clothes on Nanny Xue's chest.
She hurriedly asked someone to come forward to check.
The servant reached over and took out a letter.
Is this Madam Xue’s suicide note?
Princess Rui took the letter, opened it, and her face changed drastically after reading a few lines.
She opened her mouth, but before she could utter a word, she collapsed to the ground.
