Chapter 1434 Complaint
Manbao opened the box and said, "This is something someone secretly threw into my car when I went to the Li family for the 100th day celebration today."
When the prince saw the bloody dagger inside, his face instantly turned gloomy.
He reached out and took out the dagger, sniffing the blood. He had been on the battlefield before, so he could tell right away. "This is human blood."
Manbao nodded repeatedly. She could still tell the difference between human blood and animal blood, even if they had dried up.
The prince put the dagger into the box and took it directly from her hand. He said with a stern face: "This is not aimed at you, this is aimed at me. Don't worry, if someone really kills you, Gu Yi and his three clans will avenge you."
Manbao: ...
This was no comfort to her at all.
If she died, she wouldn't be able to survive and kill all nine of her clans.
The prince closed the box, frowned, and looked at Manbao in thought for a while. When Manbao became a little nervous, he said, "Starting tomorrow, you will go to the palace to check the pulse of the Crown Princess. You don't need to tell anyone else. If anyone asks, just tell them that you are here for me to see."
Manbao nodded.
She looked at the box in his hand, coughed lightly and said, "Your Highness, give me this knife. I'll take it to show Lord Tang."
Then wash it and sell it.
The prince did not give it to her, but said: "You don't have to worry about this matter, I will leave it to him."
Manbao hesitated and didn't move.
The prince frowned, "Why?"
Manbao whispered, "This knife is a gift for me. Take it for a spin and remember to return it to me."
The prince saw through her thoughts at a glance. He was speechless for a while, then turned and walked to the treasure rack. He casually took a dagger inlaid with gems from it and threw it into her arms. He raised his chin and said, "This is your reward."
Manbao held the dagger, pulled it out, took a look at the scabbard and the gems inlaid on the handle, swallowed, and put it away.
After getting the good things, Manbao didn't want to stay any longer.
She packed up her medicine box, stood up and said, "Your Highness, I will leave the palace now."
The prince nodded and followed her out the door. He asked Eunuch Wu to escort her out. He said expressionlessly, "Order two teams of imperial guards to escort Doctor Zhou back."
Eunuch Wu was stunned, and for some reason he suddenly became more defensive, but he still bowed and accepted.
As soon as he looked up, he saw the dagger in Manbao's hand, and immediately went to write a gift list. Without this thing, she could not leave the palace.
Eunuch Wu wrote the gift list himself, stamped it himself, and then took Ba Manbao out of the palace.
The Eastern Palace dispatched two teams of imperial guards to escort Zhou Man back to Changqing Lane.
After she left, the prince sat on the couch with the box and read it. Occasionally he looked up at the Crown Princess who was still sleeping, and no one knew what he was thinking.
As soon as Manbao returned to Changqing Lane, Bai Shan came up to him and asked, "I heard from you, sir, that something strange was thrown out of your car again?"
Manbao raised his hand and let him see the dagger in his hand.
Bai Shan was speechless for a moment when he looked at the dazzling dagger.
Man Baole said, "The prince exchanged it with me."
Bai Shan: ...
"The prince also sent an additional team of imperial guards to escort me."
Bai Shan frowned, "Are you planning a head-on confrontation? Are you using you as bait?"
Manbao hummed and said, "No."
The Crown Princess is pregnant, and the Crown Prince is not stupid, so he won't let anyone hurt her at this time, and they are still pointing at her belly.
Seeing her so confident, Bai Shan couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, pulled her aside, and asked quietly, "Is there any progress with Uncle Zhou?"
Manbao looked around, and after making sure no one was around, he whispered in his ear, "The Crown Princess is pregnant."
Bai Shan was surprised, then overjoyed. He lowered his voice and asked, "So, the matter is solved?"
Manbao whispered, "As long as the prince is not stupid."
"That's right," Bai Shan thought thoughtfully, "If he still wants to take action now, we should stay away from him as soon as possible."
Manbao suddenly thought, isn’t this a good time to find out?
The Crown Princess is pregnant, so the couple should discuss this matter, right?
Manbao rolled his eyes and said, "I'm going back to wash up and rest."
Bai Shan knew that she had been busy and frightened, and was probably very tired at the moment, so she nodded and volunteered, "I'll go to the kitchen to get you some hot water."
Then he turned around, went to her room, got a wooden basin and ran away.
San Ya, who had taken out the medical book and was about to ask her aunt a few questions, saw this, was silent for a moment, and then turned back. Forget it, she decided to go to the restaurant to find her second sister.
The restaurant must be busy today, so they can go and help out.
After washing up, Manbao lay on the bed and began to excitedly click on the video. He didn't watch the one recorded yesterday, but directly watched the current one.
The Crown Princess was still sleeping. The Crown Prince had no idea where he had put the box. He was reading a book and watching over the Crown Princess on the couch.
The Crown Princess opened her eyes and was shocked, because the Crown Prince was actually reading a book when he was bored.
Although the prince had good grades in school and was often praised by the tutor, deep down he still preferred riding horses and fighting.
Compared to the Third Prince’s brilliant literary talent, the Crown Prince believed more in defending the country on horseback.
So he would go to the martial arts arena in his free time and rarely read a book.
The Crown Princess climbed up from the couch, glanced around the room, and asked, "Is Zhou Man gone?"
The prince was worried about the name of his child and was so engrossed in the thought that he didn't notice the princess woke up. He only turned around when he heard her ask.
He immediately dropped his book and went to help her, "Are you awake? Do you want to sleep some more?"
The Crown Princess knew Zhou Man had told him when she saw his reaction. She couldn't help but smile and said softly, "It's getting late. If you sleep too much, you won't be able to sleep tonight."
She lowered her head slightly, but raised her eyes to look at the prince, and asked softly, "Does Your Highness know?"
The prince nodded, gently placed his hand on her abdomen, and whispered, "I see. I'm looking at some literature to find a good name for him."
The Crown Princess said angrily, "We don't even know if it's a boy or a girl, why are you giving it a name?"
"It's okay. I'll name both boys and girls. If it's a girl, I'll use a girl's name, and if it's a boy, I'll use a boy's name." The prince said with a smile, "Zhou Man said that my illness will soon be cured, and I will definitely have other children in the future."
The princess nodded, unable to help but smile.
She remembered something, took the prince's hand, and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, let's forget about that matter."
The prince was silent for a moment before nodding, "I know."
The Crown Princess heaved a sigh of relief, her eyes reddening slightly. She leaned into his arms and whispered, "Let my third brother take care of the cleanup."
The prince laughed and said, "What are you cleaning up?"
His eyes were deep and pointed as he said, "I just made some friends with talented people outside and wanted to recommend them for the country. What do I need to finish it off?"
He has been gradually selling things and saving money recently, waiting for Gan Bin to come back so that he can prepare, but now it seems that it is no longer necessary.
Fortunately, he didn't have time to say anything to Gan Bin, so there was no need to wrap it up.
I would like to recommend my old book "Child Bride's Peaches and Plums All Over the World", with a handsome and intelligent male protagonist, a smart and strong female protagonist
