Chapter 97: Bring someone to follow her
"Wait, go back home first."
Zhao Zhiyuan originally wanted to go directly to Li Shen, but after she lowered her head and thought about it, she thought of something.
The carriage turned again.
Jiang Yu saw Zhao Zhiyuan enter the Zhao Mansion:
"Your Highness, why don't you leave me here alone to guard?"
If it is cold today, the temperature will be even lower after the sun sets.
Zhao Zhiyuan should not leave the house today, but Jiang Yu is still worried about Xiao Yan's health.
“No need.”
Xiao Yan's tone was firm.
————
"Go and ask a doctor to come to the house, and remember to do it quietly."
The personal maid was puzzled: "Miss, isn't there a palace doctor in the mansion?"
Zhao Zhiyuan raised an eyebrow: "Just go if I tell you to. Don't ask too many questions."
"oh."
Zhao Zhiyuan wanted to torture the bastard born to Meng Mingshu, so he had to get Li Shen's consent.
Unfortunately, Li Shen had a clear attitude on this matter. Zhao Zhiyuan begged him several times, but Li Shen remained unmoved.
Today, Zhao Zhiyuan finally came up with a solution.
She planned to fake a pregnancy.
Once the goal is achieved, they say it was a miscarriage.
Anyway, she lives in Zhao's house, so Li Shen can't find any evidence against her.
————
"Your Highness, we've caught the doctor and questioned him thoroughly."
"She wants fake pregnancy soup."
Jiang Yu looked at Xiao Yan, "Perhaps she wants to pretend to be pregnant and frame His Highness?"
Xiao Yan shook his head: "I have never touched her."
The emperor and the empress dowager also knew about this.
Zhao Zhiyuan himself should not be so stupid.
Jiang Yu was a little puzzled: "Then why did she act like this?"
"Just wait."
There is no such thing as a fake pregnancy for no reason, it will eventually be exposed.
Xiao Yan intuitively felt that he could find Meng Mingshu by following the clue of Zhao Zhiyuan.
Zhao Zhiyuan himself and the Zhao family do not have the ability to capture Meng Mingshu under the royal family's nose.
There must be someone else behind her.
What Xiao Yan wanted was to follow Zhao Zhiyuan and find the person behind her.
Sure enough, after Xiao Yan and his men had been waiting at the door of the Zhao family's house for five days, they finally waited for Zhao Zhiyuan to leave the house again.
Xiao Yan and Jiang Yu were extremely careful with their secret guards to avoid being discovered by Zhao Zhiyuan or the person she was looking for.
"In Li Shen's residence?"
Jiang Yu was a little surprised.
Among the royal family members, Li Shen was extremely well-behaved.
His father and the emperor were cousins, not biological brothers.
Therefore, he was one of the few people who was not hated and retaliated against by the emperor.
Even Li Shen's father had a good relationship with the emperor.
Li Shen himself is usually inconspicuous. If Jiang Yu really wants to talk about his impression of him, the only thing he can think of is honesty and cowardice.
Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes slightly and said to Jiang Yu in a low voice, "Go and gather some manpower."
————
As soon as Zhao Zhiyuan saw Li Shen, she threw herself into his arms and cried sadly.
Li Shen hugged the person in his arms, raised an eyebrow and asked, "Why are you crying? Who offended you again?"
Zhao Zhiyuan deliberately concealed the truth: "No, it has nothing to do with other people."
Li Shen stroked her back with his large hand. "Who is this related to? It can't be Xiao Yan again."
Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan.
Why does Li Shen always think of Xiao Yan?
He cares about Xiao Yan more than she does.
"It's not him! I've already hated him, and I won't say another word to him."
"Who is that?"
Li Shen finally became a little more curious.
"It's you."
Zhao Zhiyuan bit her lip and spoke.
"I?"
Li Shen was surprised: "This prince has not provoked you recently."
Instead, it was Zhao Zhiyuan who started to order him around and became more and more aggressive.
"Come closer and listen."
Seeing that Li Shen didn't move, Zhao Zhiyuan directly hugged his neck.
"I'm pregnant."
Zhao Zhiyuan lowered his voice.
Li Shen looked up suddenly when he heard this.
"What did you say?"
"I am pregnant."
Zhao Zhiyuan said it again.
Li Shen's breathing became rapid and his pupils shrank slightly.
Seeing Li Shen looking at him in disbelief, he almost lost his balance.
Zhao Zhiyuan found it a little funny.
Li Shen's reaction was too exaggerated. His whole body seemed to be petrified, and he looked a bit stupid at the moment.
"Well, put me down now."
Li Shen suddenly picked up Zhao Zhiyuan, and the feeling of weightlessness made Zhao Zhiyuan's voice rise a few notches.
"Okay! Okay!"
Li Shen quickly put Zhao Zhiyuan down, but the smile between his eyebrows could not be concealed.
"Having a child is a good thing! This is our first child, and in my heart, it's also my first child. Let me think about it, think carefully about what name to give him..."
Zhao Zhiyuan took Li Shen's hand:
"It's too early to think of a name now."
"Li Shen, I'm pregnant with your child. Can you please fulfill my wish and let me meet that bastard?"
"Whenever I think of the pain and humiliation Xiao Yan brought me, I want to torture that bastard."
Li Shen was stunned.
The surging ecstasy just now subsided a little at this moment.
He even doubted whether the child existed.
Don't blame him for thinking too much.
The truth is that Zhao Zhiyuan is not like other women. She is bold and can do anything.
"I'll ask the court doctor to take your pulse first."
"If you are really pregnant, I will take you there."
"If you dare to lie to me, I will never forgive you."
Zhao Zhiyuan was a little nervous. She didn't expect Li Shen to be so distrustful of her.
But if she refused now, it would only show that she was guilty.
Zhao Zhiyuan could only take a gamble.
…
The court doctor arrived quickly.
"My Lord, Miss Zhao is indeed pregnant."
Zhao Zhiyuan breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the doctor she had secretly found outside the house was quite capable.
"Well, I didn't lie to you."
Zhao Zhiyuan grabbed Li Shen's hand again: "Prince, please promise me."
Li Shen looked at Zhao Zhiyuan's flat belly with eyes full of pity.
Although he already had children, they were all born to lowly concubines.
Li Shen didn't care about those children.
When they were born, he didn't feel any great joy in his heart, and there was even little emotion.
But today, for the first time, Li Shen felt something different about the child in Zhao Zhiyuan's belly.
He couldn't suppress his joy and was looking forward to having a child with Zhao Zhiyuan from the bottom of his heart.
"good."
Li Shen finally nodded and agreed.
"But we'll go there when it gets dark and take the secret path."
The place where Meng Mingshu was imprisoned was a secret cell.
The secret passage was in his mansion, but Meng Mingshu and the others locked it outside the mansion. After walking through a secret passage, they came out of a temple, and then walked through a side hall of the temple and continued through two secret passages to reach the destination.
————
Therefore, Xiao Yan and Jiang Yu did not get any results from their waiting outside Li Shen's mansion.
Li Shen did not leave the house on the surface, but he was already in the temple.
But it just happened that Cui Zhe's men happened to search nearby and saw Li Shen's back.
"Li Shen?"
"Did your Excellency see it wrong?"
Cui Zhe shook his head: "I am not wrong. Send someone to inform His Highness, and I will take my men to follow him."
Cui Zhe knew about Xiao Yan and Jiang Yu's actions, so he immediately became alert.
…
Good night my dears ^O^, this storyline should be over tomorrow.
