Chapter 3: Your way of having an heir is to have someone steal?
"Wait a moment." Nanny Lin said, "You are too impulsive."
"The sound alone cannot prove that the princess is cheating. If we are wrong, we will all be punished."
She tried to look in the window.
The windows of the palace were made of tiles, so nothing could be seen.
She rolled her eyes and beckoned Aunt Deng to come closer: "I have a good idea to kill two birds with one stone. Listen carefully..."
After hearing this, Aunt Deng's eyes lit up: "Great!"
"Okay, I'll be there right away."
Xie Yingmian had no idea that the two old women outside were causing trouble.
Ninety-nine and eighty-one needles directly turned Yu Lingye into a hedgehog.
After the acupuncture, she was so exhausted that she leaned limply against Yu Lingye's side.
Yu Lingye felt so comfortable that he fell into a deep sleep during the acupuncture and could not wake up for a while.
"Ninety-nine and eighty-one reviving needles are the only way to save you." Xie Yingmian grabbed Yu Lingye's wrist and took his pulse.
"I saved your life, so charging you 10,000 taels for treatment isn't too much, is it?"
Her body is incredibly weak.
After confirming that Yu Lingye would not die, the tense feeling relaxed and Xie Yingmian fell asleep.
In a daze.
Someone pulled her off the bed.
Before she could wake up, a basin of water with ice chips was poured on her head and face.
Xie Yingmian shuddered.
She opened her eyes blearily.
"Bitch." The concubine cursed when she woke up.
"I know you were raised on a farm and are rude and unruly, but I didn't know you were so shameless."
"You swore that you had a secret recipe to give Ye'er an heir, and I believed your lies."
"You are so good, your way of leaving Ye'er with an heir is to steal a man!"
Xie Yingmian's head hurt so much from the icy water and the devilish sound.
She wiped the ice water off her face and yelled unhappily at the source of the demonic sound: "What are you arguing about? Are you sick..."
As soon as I said the word "illness", my memory came back.
Xie Yingmian remembered.
This is not a hospital, she has traveled through time.
The owner of the demonic sound was not her patient, but the imperial concubine who held the power of life and death over her.
When the concubine saw Xie Yingmian's rude words, she became even angrier.
"You have done such a shameful thing and you still have no remorse. You even dare to insult me."
"Come here, drag her out and put her in the pig cage."
I saw a few strong maids coming over.
Xie Yingmian dodged and said, "My Lady Concubine, I didn't mean to offend you."
"It happened suddenly. I thought I was being attacked, so I said something rude."
"Excuse me, Madam Dowager, what do you mean by stealing someone?"
"You still dare to play dumb? Fine," the imperial concubine said to Nanny Lin, "You tell her the truth, and let her die knowing full well!"
Nanny Lin came forward in response, lowering her brows and looking docile:
"Two old servants were ordered to serve the prince and princess. The princess sent us away midway and asked us to go get the things we need for the seeds."
"The princess won't let us into the house to serve, so we'll wait outside the door."
"We faintly heard a man's voice in the house. We thought it was the prince who had woken up, so we immediately informed the Concubine Dowager of the good news."
"The Concubine Dowager brought the imperial physician over. He diagnosed that the prince was beyond saving and it was impossible for him to wake up mid-sentence. However, we definitely heard a man's voice..."
Nanny Lin glanced at Xie Yingmian, lowered her head, and nodded, not daring to continue.
Xie Yingmian understood.
It's these two maids who are causing trouble.
The nanny who spoke was a little clever.
After all these words, it seemed as if nothing was said, but in fact everything was said.
"Xie Yingmian, do you have anything else to say?" the concubine said.
"Yes." Xie Yingmian stared at Nanny Lin for a few seconds.
He gathered all his strength and slapped her in the face.
The slap was extremely powerful.
Nanny Lin, who was of a stout build, staggered and her face quickly became swollen.
Nanny Lin didn't expect Xie Yingmian to dare to take action.
She widened her eyes and screamed, "You, you hit me?"
Xie Yingmian sneered: "What kind of royal family are you that I can't hit you?"
When the concubine saw Xie Yingmian hitting someone, her face turned pale.
Xie Yingmian didn't hit the nanny, but her face!
"How can you be so presumptuous in front of me? Come, arrest her immediately."
Xie Yingmian said, "Please calm down, Concubine Dowager."
"I hit her for a reason."
Before the Concubine Dowager could speak, Xie Yingmian quickly said, "This nanny has ulterior motives."
"At the very least, it's an attempt to frame me. At the most serious, it's an attempt to murder Prince Ling and his heir."
Nanny Lin knelt down in fear and trepidation: "Please understand, Your Majesty, I never had such thoughts."
"I just heard a man's voice in the bridal chamber and mistakenly thought that the prince had woken up. That's all."
"This old servant is wronged, the Concubine will understand."
Xie Yingmian sneered, "How dare you treat the Concubine Dowager like a fool?"
"If you hadn't misled me, how could the Concubine Dowager mistakenly think that I was cheating on her?"
The concubine's expression changed slightly: "This is what I guessed myself."
This was the sentence Xie Yingmian was waiting for.
She said, "Mrs. Dowager Consort, if this nanny hadn't misled you, how could you have thought that way?"
Seeing that the concubine was about to refute,
Xie Yingmian added: "Please listen to my analysis."
"Although His Highness is unconscious, my special acupuncture technique has enabled His Highness to make sounds."
"These two maids mistakenly thought that His Highness had woken up, and hurried to tell the Concubine Dowager the good news."
"According to normal logic, when you arrived, Concubine Dowager, you should have woken me up first and asked me whether His Royal Highness Prince Ling had woken up, whether he had made any sounds, whether I had completed the seeding, etc."
"The reality is, Your Majesty, without a second thought, you immediately concluded that I was cheating on you and wanted to put me in a pig cage."
"Don't you think that's strange?"
The Toffee didn't take it seriously at first.
But after hearing what came later, I was shaken.
yes.
The man's voice in the house came from Ye'er.
Ye'er was just unconscious at that time, not dead, so it was normal for him to make some sounds.
How could she be so sure that Xie Yingmian was cheating on her?
She remembered...
After entering the room, the two maids kept hinting to her.
She lost her mind in anger and believed that Xie Yingmian was cheating on her.
Seeing that the Concubine Dowager had listened, Xie Yingmian struck while the iron was hot:
"Your Highness, this is Prince Ling's Mansion. Not just anybody can come in."
"How can I arrange for a man to enter Prince Ling's Mansion, which is heavily guarded?"
"Let's take a step back. Even if I can arrange for someone to enter Prince Ling's mansion, how can I bring them to Prince Ling's courtyard?"
"I don't know why there are only two maids guarding the bridal chamber, but I know there are many servants and guards outside the courtyard. Even if the two maids have left, there are still others stationed there. Interrogating them will reveal the truth."
The Toffee's sanity gradually returned.
She realized that she had been led astray by the two maids and angrily said, "How dare you!"
The two maids were dumbfounded.
Especially Nanny Lin.
She thought this plan killed two birds with one stone and was foolproof.
Who would have thought that Xie Yingmian could resolve it so easily?
"I know I'm wrong." Seeing that the situation was not good, the two maids knelt down and kowtowed.
"It's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding. I was wrong to blame the princess. I was wrong. Please punish me, princess."
Xie Yingmian said in a faint voice: "Misunderstanding?"
"Then can you explain what the misunderstanding is about the poison on the Dragon and Phoenix Candle?"
