Chapter 536: Many Secrets Hidden in the Body
Xu Muhua, Pei Shaorong and Zhao Chengye returned to the East Palace.
As soon as they returned to the East Palace, the Emperor and the Empress sent something to them, saying that they were wronged today.
Of course, in addition to these rewards, Zhao Chengye also took over all the government affairs in the hands of the King Qin, and the Emperor also arranged a good job for him.
The Emperor knew that this matter was caused by the King Qin, but he couldn't bear to do anything to the King Qin because of this matter. He couldn't really pretend that he knew nothing, so he had to appease the prince.
Zhao Chengye accepted it very calmly.
It's free!
Pei Shaorong was completely relieved after returning to her own territory, "I was scared to death just now! What's the matter with that doll? You didn't tell me about this!"
She only knew that Pei Zhen wanted to use the baby in her belly to frame her, and the prince also told her not to worry about anything, let alone be afraid, he had arranged everything, and she just had to let it go.
But when the puppet fell out just now, she was so scared that her heart almost jumped out!
You know, no matter what time it is, once it is related to the art of victory, there is basically no possibility of getting out of it! And Zhao Chengye's expression at that time also looked like he was kept in the dark and didn't know anything.
Zhao Chengye exhaled heavily, "I don't know either! Ask your good friend!"
He was also very scared!
Xu Muhua just borrowed a few people from him, and told them to follow her arrangements. He did as she said.
How could he know that this was possible!
Xu Muhua was really brave, was he trying to flatter her?
"Muhua! What's going on?"
"Oh, what's going on? It's just what you saw! Prince Qin did arrange for someone to put a doll in the East Palace, in the hall where you live. The doll even has my father's birth date written on it!"
If this doll was found, they would probably have been under house arrest by now!
"Then..."
"Of course I found it, and then replaced it!"
Pei Shaorong and Zhao Chengye looked at her speechlessly.
Look at her, she said it so easily, as if she was talking about what she had for breakfast this morning!
Pei Shaorong felt like she wanted to scream, but the noblewoman education she received since childhood did not allow her to do such an inappropriate thing. She had to breathe back and forth several times before she suppressed the urge to scream.
"Muhua, be serious! How...how did you find out about this? And what's the matter with that doll? And that medicine..."
She looked at Zhao Chengye.
Zhao Chengye said: "The child in your concubine's belly could not be kept. The reason why the imperial physician did not diagnose it before was because she took a medicine that could temporarily change her pulse, just as Doctor Liu Yu said. So she was able to hide it from the world."
As for that medicine, it is indeed a unique medicine in Pishan Kingdom, and it is only available in the Holy Maiden Temple.
Thinking of this, Zhao Chengye couldn't help but glance at Xu Muhua.
These were clues he found out after Xu Muhua reminded him to check on Su Zijiao.
But he always felt that things went too smoothly this time. He wanted to check on Su Zijiao, and then he happened to find out that this person had a relationship with the royal family of Pishan Kingdom and the Temple of the Holy Maiden. And he also happened to find out that the medicine used by Pei Zhen was obtained from Su Zijiao.
It was as if someone provided him with some clues and led his people in the right direction.
If there really is such a person, it must be Xu Muhua.
But there is one thing he doesn't understand, how did Xu Muhua know all this?
She was the first to remind Arong about Pei Zhen's matter, and then Arong told him. How did she know that there was a problem with the baby in Pei Zhen's belly? The more
Zhao Chengye thought about it, the more he felt that Xu Muhua was hiding many secrets. Even now, he was not sure whether he should explore her secrets.
"Let Muhua tell you about this medicine. She may know more about it than me."
Pei Shaorong looked at Xu Muhua in surprise.
Xu Muhua touched his nose and told her about Su Ziqiao.
Pei Shaorong frowned: "So this Su Zijiao is problematic? As for Mu Hua, he is now married to your cousin, this matter..."
Xu Mu Hua shrugged, seemingly answering Pei Shaorong, but actually speaking to Zhao Chengye, "You also know the relationship between our Chengguo Mansion and their family. Although there is indeed a little relationship in terms of blood, in reality, people with different ideologies cannot work together, and the only interaction between our two families is for the sake of face."
So, no matter what this family wants to do, it has nothing to do with the Chengguo Mansion! Don't involve the Chengguo Mansion in the future!
Pei Shaorong didn't think much about it and nodded after listening, "I know that you and your cousin have always had an average relationship. But if there is really a problem with Su Zijiao, the Chengguo Mansion should also be on guard to avoid being implicated by them."
"Don't worry, Arong, I will write a letter to let my parents pay attention."
She changed the subject, "Pei Zhen has become a scapegoat now, and Prince Qin will not let her go easily. If your father comes to beg for mercy..."
Don't say it, Lord Pei can really do such a thing!
Pei Shaorong said with a cold face: "If he dares to ask me for mercy, I will let him go to my father!"
She did not add insult to injury in front of her father and mother just now, which was her greatest kindness!
Zhao Chengye looked at her and said, "If your father really comes to bother you, you can put all the blame on me."
He wanted to see if his confused father-in-law dared to do so, and whether he had the face to beg for mercy in front of him!
"Don't talk about her, she brought this upon herself!"
She hadn't even taken the initiative to cause trouble for Pei Zhen, but she brought it upon herself.
Besides, if she wanted to blame or hate, she should blame and hate King Qin!
"Muhua, tell me, where is the puppet originally placed in the East Palace? Who put it there?"
Pei Shaorong asked, looking directly at Xu Muhua.
Xu Muhua was silent for a moment before she said in a low voice: "Arong, actually you already have the answer in your heart, don't you?"
The Eastern Palace is heavily guarded, and there are not many female relatives in the backyard, and they are all not sociable. As the Crown Princess, she seldom invites female relatives to participate in activities in the Eastern Palace, let alone her as a concubine.
It certainly could not be someone like a guard who could put something in without startling anyone. It could only be someone who could enter the Eastern Palace and move freely without arousing suspicion.
The person who suddenly ran to the Eastern Palace recently, besides Pei Zhen, was Sun Xuehe.
Everyone in the Eastern Palace knew that Sun Xuehe was a good friend of the Crown Princess, and when she came, the servants who came and went in the Eastern Palace would not be too suspicious of her or guard against her. She wanted to walk around in the East Palace, and as long as she didn't go to a place like the study, no one would care, and no one would restrict her.
