Chapter 519: The Child Who Cannot Be Born
Crow is not like Xiaoban who likes to be a conspicuous person. When Xu Muhua asked, it told the story.
"I heard it. I know what the woman you don't like wants to do!"
"Which woman?"
Xu Muhua was stunned.
There must be many women she doesn't like, right?
"It's the woman who often comes to see the Crown Princess recently! The woman who said she is pregnant!"
Xu Muhua suddenly realized that it was Pei Zhen!
She was refreshed, "Do you know why she often comes to the East Palace to see Arong recently?"
Crow nodded, "Yes, yes, I just saw her talking to the Qin Wang in the yard where she lives. She asked Qin Wang when she could take action, and Qin Wang said it would be soon."
"While talking, the woman touched her belly and said something about her pitiful child. The King Qin said that the child could not be born in the first place, and using him to seduce the Crown Princess was a favor he did for them as parents, and it was the greatest value of his existence."
Xu Muhua's eyes were round and round, and he was very shocked, "So the child in Pei Zhen's belly has a problem and can't be born at all, so they want to use this child to frame A Rong? What a pair of crazy parents!"
If they bribed the imperial physician and said that the child in Pei Zhen's belly was a son. And the Crown Princess was jealous because she didn't get pregnant for a long time and killed the child in the belly of the King Qin's concubine. In addition, Pei Zhen is Arong's illegitimate sister. If the news gets out, it will definitely have a very negative impact on Arong's reputation as the Crown Princess.
Even if they cannot use this incident to overthrow the Crown Prince, it is a good deal for them to cause trouble for the Crown Prince and ruin the reputation of the Crown Princess.
No wonder Pei Zhen has been running to the East Palace recently, and she looks like she has reformed. Isn't this just for others to see?
The more she shows remorse and wants to reconcile with the Crown Princess now, the more people will think that the Crown Princess is narrow-minded when the child incident happens. As a Crown Princess, the most taboo thing is not to be broad-minded. After all, when the Crown Prince ascends the throne in the future, the harem will be filled with countless concubines.
The Crown Princess is so jealous. If the Crown Prince's concubine gets pregnant in the future, won't the Crown Princess frame and kill the baby in the concubine's belly? In the long run, the Crown Prince's offspring will be in jeopardy!
But don't underestimate such a thing. It seems to be a trivial matter, but many big things often start from small things. At the critical moment, small things can also ferment and become fatal big things.
The hearts of King Qin and Pei Zhen are really cruel. Their children are pitiful and can't come to this world. In the end, they are used by their own parents and hurt others.
The crow nodded in agreement.
Yes, those two people are too cruel! How can they use their own children? Poor children.
"Did they say when they would do it?"
Crow shook his head. "No, the Prince Qin just said it would be soon, and that woman's belly can't wait too long. You'd better remind the Crown Princess quickly, otherwise she will be in trouble."
"Well, I'll tell Arong tomorrow to tell her to be careful and it's best not to see Pei Zhen, otherwise she will be like a mad dog and bite people at any time."
"I'll go to the Prince Qin's mansion and continue to keep an eye on them. If they say when to do it, I'll come and tell you immediately!"
said Crow.
Xu Muhua was touched, "Crow, you are such a good crow, you know how to share other people's worries."
The crow was a little embarrassed by her praise, "It doesn't matter, anyway, I have nothing to do, I'm just sitting there."
"Then I have to thank you very much!"
The crow became even more shy, turned around shyly and flew away.
Xu Muhua was amused.
A crow actually knows how to be shy. Why didn't she know before that animals also have so many emotions?
The next day, Xu Muhua came to find Pei Shaorong early.
"Arong, I think you'd better not see Pei Zhen recently. She's pregnant now. If something happens to you in the East Palace, you really can't explain it with a hundred mouths."
Pei Shaorong was stunned for a moment and quickly reacted, "Muhua, you mean Pei Zhen is likely to use the child in her belly to frame me?"
She frowned and said puzzledly: "But isn't this child very important to her and the king? Why would she use this child to frame me?"
Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs, and if this child is born, if it's a son, Pei Zhen's position will be stable. Would she be willing to use this child to frame her?
"But what if this child is destined not to be born?"
Xu Muhua looked at her meaningfully and said.
Pei Shaorong was shocked and couldn't help but widen her eyes, "Mu Hua, what do you mean? Could the baby in Pei Zhen's belly..."
She wasn't really stupid, she just had never thought of this possibility before.
After all, she was never a vicious person, and of course she wouldn't think about whether there was any problem with the baby in Pei Zhen's belly, whether she could keep it and give birth to it.
Even though Pei Zhen was a person she hated so much, she never thought about the baby in her belly getting into trouble.
Xu Muhua nodded, "This is the only possibility, so the couple is willing to do it and think of taking advantage of it. Ah Rong, I don't need to say more, you should understand. If Pei Zhen is in the East Palace, and something happens to you, what does it mean to the prince and to you, and what consequences will there be."
"Prince Qin has regained his favor now, so it shouldn't be difficult for him to buy off an imperial physician. Who can guarantee that Concubine Li and the Li family didn't leave any connections for him?"
"This is the most likely possibility at the moment. Pei Zhen is the kind of person who will not do anything without profit. She comes to the East Palace frequently, pretending to be repentant, wanting to get your forgiveness, and be good sisters with you. Does she really have no purpose? You don't believe it either!"
Pei Shaorong shook her head: "I have never believed her, but I just can't figure out what she wants to do."
After Mu Hua said this, she felt that it was indeed the case. If explained in this way, things would make sense.
Sure enough, she said, a dog will always eat shit, how could someone like Pei Zhen repent and reform? It turns out that she wants to use the child in her belly to frame her!
For a moment, Pei Shaorong didn't know whether she should pity Pei Zhen or say that this was her retribution.
After finally getting pregnant, she was doomed to die.
