Chapter 225 Spring Fruit



Unexpectedly, Xu Qingyi grabbed his wrist tightly. Feeling the cold palm of his hand, Gu Qingsheng's heart skipped a beat and he immediately pushed him away.

"The Imperial Master is being rude!"

Xu Qingyi was a little unsteady after Gu Qingsheng's action. His hand froze in mid-air. He put it down after a long pause and lowered his head.

"Excuse me."

"But I have some concerns about this matter that I would like to share with the princess."

The temperature on his wrist did not decrease. Gu Qingsheng raised his eyebrows, hid his hand in his sleeve, and looked at Xu Qingyi.

There was a mixture of coldness and disappointment in his eyes, as well as a vague sense of alienation.

The eyes were too scorching, Xu Qingyi lowered his eyes to avoid looking at them.

"Just as the imperial physician said, this baby is very stable and healthy. However, when something is abnormal, there must be something wrong. This baby is too stable, which is actually inappropriate."

"Generally speaking, a fetus in the first three months of life will be somewhat unstable due to growth. This time, the princess's child is so healthy, I'm afraid it's..."

"so what?"

After hearing this, Gu Qingsheng asked back

"What does the Imperial Master want to say? Is he trying to tell me that there's something fishy about Lin's pregnancy, and that I should be careful?"

"But I would like to ask the Imperial Master what does this have to do with the Imperial Master?"

"Wouldn't it be better to use this time to heal Miss Luo and save some trouble?"

The last sentence was full of irony, and Xu Qingyi's face turned pale for a moment.

The hand finally stopped for a while and then slowly fell in front of him, saying helplessly

"The princess is right."

After he left, Miao Lanlan felt a little disappointed.

"It's okay for him to explain! But he just won't! His temper is really frustrating!"

"At this point, is there anything else that needs to be explained?"

Gu Qingsheng smiled bitterly and said

"I have given up hope."

"Hey, don't..."

Miao Lanlan was very anxious

"He's not that kind of person, don't you know, he..."

Gu Qingsheng didn't seem to want to hear these words. He pushed open the door of Lin's house and walked in.

As soon as I stepped in, I saw a little girl respectfully washing a towel in a basin. When she saw Gu Qingsheng coming, she looked puzzled and then slowly said to Gu Qingsheng:

"Miss... our wife just took some medicine and isn't feeling well, so..."

"Who are you?"

Looking the girl up and down, she was thin and orange-yellow in figure, but her face was not ugly. She must have been malnourished since childhood, so she looked like this. If she was nourished later, she would be a beauty.

Luo Shui came in with some food outside the door, and after seeing this scene, he shouted at the girl

"This is Princess Changle from our palace. She doesn't know the rules at all! She doesn't even know how to behave properly!"

When she heard the name of the princess, the girl was shocked and knelt down

"Your servant Chun Guo! I pay my respects to the princess!"

"Spring fruit..."

Gu Qingsheng muttered to himself and asked Luo Shui:

"Wasn't this person here yesterday? When did she come?"

"Reply to the princess."

Put the food down when falling into the water

"This girl was recently taken in by Prince Duan. I heard she came from the countryside and apparently came to the capital looking for someone, but she didn't find anyone and nearly starved herself to death. A passing prince saw her and took pity on her, so he saved her."

"And now that the princess is pregnant, I sent this girl over. But before I even started, the princess is here."

Spring fruit...

She looked at the girl again and felt that something was wrong.

Now that Lin is pregnant, her father should be very cautious. Why would he just pick up a maid from the street to serve Lin?

Moreover, Prince Duan is not the kind of philanthropist who would take in a poor girl. The girl's origin is too strange.

Although he thought so in his heart, Gu Qingsheng still smiled.

"So that's how it is. Mother is pregnant now, so it's naturally inconvenient for her. Having two more girls would be great."

"You should learn more from Luoshui. She has been taking care of her mother for a long time, so she naturally understands more."

Chun Guo kept his head down and said nothing, only saying

"yes."

Lin was sleeping, and Gu Qingsheng didn't have the heart to see her. He exchanged a secret glance with Luo Shui and then walked out. He was planning to go back to his room, but turned around when he reached the door.

"Princess, we are going to..."

"I haven't been to Huaixiang Pavilion for a long time. I went to see Anyi and the others."

People were coming and going on the street. Gu Qingsheng was walking among the crowd. Before he reached Huaixiang Pavilion, he heard a noisy quarrel at the door.

There were a lot of people gathered at the door of Huaixiang Pavilion, pointing and talking. From a distance, a woman's sharp cry could be heard. She quickened her pace and squeezed to the front with Bai Lu.

Lady Xi leaned against the door, holding a long pipe in her hand, and gradually exhaled smoke from her red lips.

"I said, no means no, why are you so unreasonable?"

The person she was scolding was sitting on the street, flapping his legs and arms, crying uncontrollably.

She was wearing a coarse linen dress and carrying a bag full of patches, looking like a scoundrel.

"I don't care! I don't care! You're such a cruel woman! You let me die without saving me!"

"If I die, I will never let you off easily! You vicious woman! Who do you lowly creatures look down upon?"

"I'm telling you! If you don't let me in today, I'll die at your doorstep!"

"Wait until I find that noble man! You all must die!"

Bai Lu saw this person's disgusted expression

"Where did this unreasonable person come from? What he said is really rude!"

Lady Xi was not annoyed when she heard this. She flicked the ash from her pipe and smiled brightly.

"Hey, listen to what you're saying, little lady. We're lowly creatures, so now you have to beg us lowly creatures, right?"

"It's really interesting. You're so arrogant even when asking for help. I've never seen anyone like you in this capital!"

"you!"

The woman was annoyed by what she said. She glared at Madam Xi and continued rolling around regardless of the discussions around her.

After listening for a long time, he was still confused. Gu Qingsheng walked out of the crowd.

"What happened?"

Her appearance made the woman stop crying. She looked at Gu Qingsheng from head to toe, and her eyes widened when she saw her jewelry.

Before Xi Niangniang could speak, the woman rushed over

"My dear! Help! This vicious woman is trying to poison me!"

"She wants me to die on the street!"

No one expected her to react so quickly. She suddenly hugged Gu Qingsheng's legs and almost made him fall.

Bai Lu quickly supported Gu Qingsheng, who was startled.

"Who are you? What are you doing? How daring! Do you know what you are holding..."

Reaching out to stop Bai Lu from speaking, Gu Qingsheng looked at the woman who was holding him tightly.

"Who are you and what are you doing here?"
