Chapter 239
This is not an ordinary crime. Even if the emperor trusts Old Tutor Lin, unless the child Princess Jin is pregnant with is the emperor's, the emperor will have to punish Old Tutor Lin if something happens.
Xie Jingyu was really curious about Chen Wan's past life and what happened afterwards.
Knowing that he would rebel and even succeed, Xie Jingyu was not surprised at all that the Lin family was guilty of the death penalty.
The crime he committed was not as serious as his.
Xie Jingyu, “…”
Xie Jingyu went back to his room, but he only went to the study. When he came back, Chen Wan was already asleep.
How did you sleep?
I don’t usually have the habit of taking a nap. Although I walked a lot today, I have walked more in the past, but I have never felt so tired.
Xie Jingyu reached out and touched Chen Wan's forehead. Seeing that he was not sick, he went back to his study.
Chen Wan returned to the room and was drinking tea. She was too sleepy to open her eyes, so she took off her outer clothes and went to bed. She seldom took a nap, so she fell asleep as soon as she fell on the bed.
She slept until the sun set and it was Coral who woke her up, fearing that she had slept too much during the day and would not be able to sleep at night.
Chen Wan had a good sleep and was stretching in bed. He was in a very good mood.
She was like this in her previous life too. Her menstrual period hadn't come yet, but she was able to eat more and more each day, and she was also sleepy. Then she felt nauseous and vomited for the first time. She called a doctor in, and they found out she was pregnant...
Chen Wan was 80% sure that she was pregnant. She would wait ten days and ask the doctor to check her pulse to confirm it.
Thinking about the time when Xie Jingyu misunderstood that she wanted to have a child with him, although he was so angry that he vomited blood later, he was still very happy at that time. He must like children, right?
Knowing that Xie Jingyu was in the study, Shen Wan went to the study to find him. Seeing her come in, Xie Jingyu asked, "Why did you sleep for so long? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Shen Wan shook his head, "I'm fine."
Xie Jingyu saw that Chen Wan didn't look like anything was wrong, but he didn't know that while Chen Wan was taking a nap, he was the one who died at night.
Um.
Chen Wan slept too much during the day and had trouble sleeping at night. When he finally forced himself to fall asleep, it was a very shallow sleep.
A certain man took a cold shower and slept on the other side, but he was used to sleeping with Shen Wan in his arms, and his arms felt empty, so he couldn't fall asleep.
Then, just like the previous times, he brought Chen Wan to sleep. The previous times, Chen Wan slept soundly and was unaware of anything, but today, Chen Wan was not asleep and woke up as soon as he held her.
Their eyes met.
Shen Wan, “…”
Xie Jingyu, “…”
A certain gentleman has never been so embarrassed.
Shen Wan was stunned at first, and then the little flames in his eyes flickered.
This bastard!
Fortunately, she thought that she was used to sleeping with him in her arms, and she fell asleep in his arms in the middle of the night. That's how it happened.
Shen Wan gritted his teeth and said, "Why don't you come over to sleep by yourself?"
Xie Jingyu touched his nose and said, "All the face I've been holding onto these days has just been lost."
Shen Wan, “…”
Well, I wanted to sleep on the other side, but ended up sleeping back in the middle of the night, which was a bit embarrassing.
but!
He wants face, but she doesn't?
Shen Wanyan cut him with a knife. Xie Jingyu lay down in frustration, slept on her pillow, and hugged her tightly, "I don't want to get up in the middle of the night and take a cold shower."
"sleep!"
Shen Wan didn't dare to move at all.
She didn't know when she fell asleep, but when she woke up, Xie Jingyu was no longer in bed, which saved her the trouble of helping him change clothes.
Shanhu Yinchuan brought in hot water to help Shen Wan wash up. Shanhu said, "The prince has started his morning exercises..."
Do I have to be so diligent? The doctor told me not to do strenuous exercise. Can't I practice martial arts a few days later?
When Xie Jingyu came back, Shen Wan asked, “Your injury hasn’t fully healed yet, why are you practicing martial arts?”
Xie Jingyu picked up some food for Shen Wan and said, "I just practiced for a short while, it's okay."
I'm used to practicing martial arts in the morning. I feel uncomfortable if I don't practice for a while.
"That won't work either. The doctor said I need to rest for half a month," Shen Wan said.
“…”
"If you still practice tomorrow, I'll tell Mother."
“…”
What could Xie Jingyu do? He could only obey and said, "Okay, I'll practice again in a few days."
Outside the window, Chen Ping and Chen An looked at each other in the tree.
As expected, there is always something that can defeat something else.
She has to be the Crown Prince’s Consort.
They knew that only by telling the Crown Prince's wife about this matter could they persuade the Crown Prince.
After breakfast, Xie Jingyu went to the study and looked at Chen Ping and Chen An. "How did the Crown Princess know that I did morning exercises?"
Chen Ping, “…”
Chen An, “…”
The two shook their heads.
I will never admit it.
"Go and do horse stance for two hours!"
The prince is not allowed to do morning exercises, but he makes them do it. How can this be possible?
The two men accepted their fate and started to practice horse stance.
After breakfast, Shen Wan took Shan Hu to Wing Chun Temple to pay her respects to the old lady.
When I reached the screen, I heard the Third Madam say, "I heard that yesterday was Madam Lin's birthday, and the Emperor went to the Lin Mansion to celebrate..."
The Second Madam was surprised. "How is this possible? I've never heard of the Emperor congratulating a minister's wife on her birthday..."
The Third Lady said, "I heard that he was with Duke Dingguo. The rumor is so convincing that I don't think it's false."
Concubine Wen said, "It's not easy to find out. The Crown Prince's wife went to the Lin Mansion yesterday. You can find out by asking her."
When Shen Wan came forward, before she could bow to the old lady, the third lady Xie Zhiqing asked, "Did the emperor really go to the Lin Mansion to celebrate Old Lady Lin's birthday yesterday?"
Shen Wan said, “I don’t know.”
Concubine Wen's face darkened. "You've been in the Lin residence for most of the day. Don't you know whether the emperor has been there or not?"
Chen Wan looked at Concubine Wen and said, "If the emperor wants to go in the imperial sedan chair, then naturally everyone will know. If he goes in casual clothes, it is obvious that he does not want everyone to know. I don't know if this matter can be discussed, so don't ask me."
Xie Zhirou said, "This matter has already spread a long time ago, why should sister-in-law cover it up?"
Shen Wan said, "I don't care what others say. After all, I went to the Lin Mansion. I have to say it. Either deny the rumor or confirm it."
The Fourth Lady smiled and said, "It's not a bad thing that the Crown Prince's wife is cautious in her words."
This is why Chen Wan wants to win over the fourth house. The fourth house can't help the eldest house much, but it can help her speak a few fair words when she is besieged by Concubine Wen and the second wife. She is not fighting alone.
The old lady looked unhappy, but what the Fourth Lady said was right, and she couldn't accuse her openly. Besides, two days ago, the Fourth Lady chose to listen to the princess and go to the Wucheng Marquis Mansion, so she had already made her choice.
Fengyi Palace.
After Queen Song had breakfast, the concubines came to pay their respects to her.
Queen Song was in a good mood. This was the advantage of being a queen. Even if the concubines were favored, they had to come and pay their respects to her.
Putting down the teacup in her hand, a concubine said, "On the way here, I heard the palace servants gossiping that the emperor left the palace yesterday, and no one knows where he went..."
Another concubine said, "I've heard about this as well. Yesterday was Madam Lin's birthday, and the Emperor and Duke Dingguo went to congratulate her."
Upon hearing this, Queen Song's face was instantly filled with gloom.
One concubine said, "It's just a rumor. It's unlikely that the emperor would go to congratulate Old Taifu Lin on his birthday, so how could he possibly go to congratulate Old Madam Lin?"
"This is about the Emperor. If it's not true, who would dare to spread rumors about the Emperor?"
That's true.
But what virtue and ability did Madam Lin have to allow the emperor to congratulate her on her birthday?
Seeing that Queen Song didn't say anything, the concubines looked at each other and didn't dare to speak again.
After the concubines left, Queen Song threw the teacup heavily onto the coffee table.
"Go check! Did the emperor really leave the palace and go to the Lin Mansion yesterday?"
Her voice was cold.
His eyes became colder.
She was the queen, and Prince Cheng was the legitimate son, but the emperor was reluctant to appoint a crown prince. Whenever officials submitted more memorials requesting the appointment of a crown prince, the emperor would reward other princes, thus shaking the officials' confidence in Prince Cheng.
She knew who the emperor wanted to make the crown prince.
pity!
That child died fifteen years ago!
