"Once the news of my pregnancy spreads, the person behind the scenes will definitely take action."
The three maids were all shocked when they heard this. Ziyu hurriedly said, "Princess, we can't take any risks. We are pregnant, but we must keep it a secret and not let anyone know!"
"Yes, we have to keep it a secret first." Shaoyao echoed.
Xie Wanyi: "In the future, your belly will grow bigger and bigger, and it will be impossible to hide it even if you want to. When you feel the pulse of pregnancy, there will be no need to hide it deliberately. So from now on, you should be alert and wait for the villain to catch him in the act!"
Zi Yu and others felt that this was the truth and it was indeed impossible to hide it. If the bad guys knew that they had failed in the beginning, I wonder what expression they would have?
"Okay, it's late, let's all go to bed."
Qinglian and Zhuyue returned to their room and, as usual, brewed a pot of calming tea before going to bed.
This time Qinglian was the one who cooked the tea. After it was cooked, she put it aside to cool down. Then she went to take a bath with Zhuyue. When they came back, the tea was ready to drink.
Zhuyue finished her bath first, and when Qinglian came back, Zhuyue had finished drinking and climbed onto the bed.
"Qinglian, I've poured you some tranquilizing soup. Drink it quickly so I can turn off the lights."
"Okay!" Qinglian took advantage of Zhuyue's averted gaze and suddenly twisted her foot and let out a scream. Zhuyue turned her head and saw that the whole bowl of tranquilizing soup fell on Qinglian. Zhuyue immediately took a breath and quickly got out of bed, "Qinglian, are you okay? Does your ankle hurt?"
"It's okay! It doesn't hurt, my clothes are just dirty. I just got out of the shower!"
Qinglian was helped up, and as if there was something dirty on her body, she pulled her clothes off.
Zhuyue's eyes saw a flash of white, which soon disappeared. Qinglian quickly changed her clothes, rolled up the dirty clothes into a ball, and hurried out of the room.
Zhuyue didn't stop her. Qinglian was a germaphobe and couldn't tolerate dirty clothes left overnight.
Qinglian pulled the note from under the brick, glanced at it quickly and put it in her mouth, then took out another note from her embroidered shoes and put it under the brick, hung up the clothes, looked around vigilantly, and left only after finding nothing unusual.
At the second hour of Si, Peilan entered Changchun Palace carrying the plum cakes she had bought from Jingtai Tower outside the palace.
"Madam, I bought your favorite plum cake."
Cui Wan asked the wet nurse to carry the little prince out, picked up a piece of plum cake and tasted it carefully, "Not bad, it still tastes the same as before, you should try it too."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward." After tasting a piece of plum cake, Peilan told Cui Wan the news from Qinglian.
"Xie Wanyi arranged for her maids to start keeping an eye on the elderly people in the Grand Prince's residence, and even the housekeeper. Qingxu went to the Charity Bureau last night and learned that people from the Grand Prince's residence had been there to inquire about Qinglian and the others."
"I really underestimated her!"
Fortunately, Qinglian had followed her since she was seven or eight years old. Last time, it was Qinglian who sent the letter framing Feng Jinyu into his study.
"Don't worry, Madam. Qinglian said she will be careful and cautious and won't reveal her true intentions."
Cui Wan naturally trusted Qinglian's ability. "Go inform Qingxu. If Qinglian can't find a suitable opportunity to take action, ask him to assist secretly."
"Yes, my lady."
The eldest prince's mansion, especially the Xiaoyun Pavilion where Feng Jinyu lives, is tightly guarded. The well water in the mansion is guarded twelve hours a day.
Qinglian’s only chance to take action is breakfast and lunch.
Zi Yu, Bai Zhi and Shao Yao would help Zhang's mother with breakfast and lunch, so Qing Lian couldn't find a chance to help.
Qinglian was not in a hurry. As long as she could succeed before Xiao Lingyu arrived in Beijing, it would be fine.
During the days when the imperial edict was sent to Huayang County, Emperor Qianyuan was extremely nervous and would occasionally become distracted during court sessions.
It won’t be long before I meet Su Xingyi, the eldest son who is not blind and has no disabled legs.
When drafting the decree, he originally wanted Xiao Lingyu to return to Beijing alone, and not let her bring Su Xingyi and her adopted son back to Beijing. He wanted to wait until the child was born before going to leave the mother and grandson.
If you really do this, that old man Dongjun will never let you go!
And that little Prince Fu!
Emperor Qianyuan had a headache just thinking about it. Why did Su Xingyi pick up a child and raise him for no reason?
The background is so powerful when picking it up!
Emperor Qianyuan had no idea what his ministers were saying.
Emperor Qianyuan suddenly stood up, turned his back to the officials, and stared blankly at the dragon throne in front of him, which was carved with golden dragons and inlaid with jewels and agates.
Su Xingyi wants to sit here, will he let him sit?
He doesn't want to give it!
"emperor?"
"emperor?"
The ministers were all confused when they saw this. What was wrong with the emperor?
"Your Majesty?" Meng Gaoyang called out cautiously again.
Emperor Qianyuan came back to his senses, realizing he had been distracted. He turned around and sat down calmly, "Are you done arguing? Then tell them one by one. Lord Meng, let's start with you..."

Su Ningjie got up early in the morning and went to see his twins first before inspecting the shops.
It was almost noon when we arrived at Baiyaotang.
"Brother Jie, you don't have to come to Baiyaotang every day. Dad will come every day." Su Xingyi walked out of the lobby, "Don't forget that you still have to study. At least you have to pass the exam and become a scholar."
"My mother said that I just need to take the exam to become a Tongsheng."
"Why don't you pass the exam and give your mother a surprise, letting her know that you are not only good at business, but also good at studying!"
"Yes! I want to pass the exam to become a scholar, but it's not easy. I heard that Meng Yunqian didn't pass the exam to become a student."
"Are you admitting that you are as stupid as Meng Yunqian?"
"I'm not stupid, I'm very smart! If Meng Yunqian didn't have me and my third brother by his side, he would have been fooled by others."
Su Xingyi patted his little head and said, "You are so smart that you can't lose to him. How about trying hard to pass the exam and become a scholar?"
"Okay! I'll try my best to give mother a surprise."
"Okay, get in the car and go to Luyuan Qionglou to pack up the food."
When the father and son were halfway along, the carriage stopped moving forward and people outside the carriage cried out in surprise:
"Wow, that carriage is so big and beautiful! It's even prettier than the one in the Princess's Mansion!"
"Another important figure has arrived in Huayang County!"
"There are many beautiful sisters and aunts..."
Su Ningjie couldn't help but be curious, so he looked over and saw many beautiful sisters and aunts, as well as more than two hundred imperial guards.
"Dad, look quickly, could they be here to look for Mom?"
Su Xing thought that the gorgeous carriage was carved with a phoenix. It was a royal carriage and he had seen similar ones in the Dongjun royal family.
Could the person coming be a princess or something like that?
"I don't know. Let's go pack the food first and we'll know when we get back."
As soon as the convoy entered the city, Qi Lianli received the news and hurried to the street entrance in front of the Princess Huguo's Mansion to guard it.
Half an incense stick later, a luxurious convoy appeared in sight and Qi Lianli hurried to greet them.
Fu Xuan emerged from the small carriage at the back of the convoy and said, "You are Qi Lianli, the prefect of Huayang County."
"It's me, your Excellency. It's lunchtime now. Would you please go to the county government office to fill your stomach first before going to announce the decree to the Protector of the Country Princess?"
