After Meng Qi returned from Prince Shen's mansion, he summoned the doctor from Fusheng Hall, and everyone started talking about it.
Wu fiddled with the flower in her hand and said nonchalantly, "I don't know if it's just a routine pulse check or something else."
While helping her choose the pattern, Xiao Lin whispered, "She said she was going to the Prince Shen's mansion to visit the Second Madam of the Zhou family today. Could it be that she was too sad and had a miscarriage?"
Wu sighed, "The princess and Grandma Zhou Er are truly a loving sister. I've heard that pregnant women shouldn't visit the house of someone who has had a miscarriage."
Xiao Lin said, "It's been a month."
"That won't work either. Think about it, this person doesn't want to go alone, whether in the world of the living or the underworld. I'll grab as many as I can." As he spoke, he stretched out a hand and grabbed into the air.
Xiao Lin exclaimed, "Yes, yes, I remember now. I once heard an old man say that you must stay far away from the pond where people drown, otherwise someone will hook you in it."
Mrs. Wu hummed, "Yes, that's right." After thinking for a moment, she said, "But maybe it's just a routine pregnancy maintenance."
Xiao Lin nodded. "What about Jin Zhi? Have you found out why the princess sent her away?"
When Mrs. Wu heard this, her face turned cold. "It's easy to find a pretext to accuse someone. I sent Mrs. Hu to see her, and she was so thin that she was just a bag of bones. She kept shaking her head and said she didn't know why."
Xiao Lin sighed, "If you ask me, I'm afraid we ran into Cheng Dianyi and Baochun."
Mrs. Wu hummed, "I thought so too. Jinzhi is usually very quiet. She doesn't even leave the yard without my permission. She only spends more time chatting with Baochun. I'm afraid it's true. Sister, do you think Cheng Dianyi would really do such a thing?"
Xiao Lin's face froze, and she shook her head. "How could that be? Cheng Dianyi has been with the prince since he opened his residence, especially in the first few years. He was always there to run around, and nothing was too much for the prince. Besides, Cheng Dianyi holds an official position. If he really had his eyes on Baochun and asked the prince for help, how could the prince refuse to give him that honor? Why resort to such a method? It would only make outsiders laugh at him."
Wu said angrily, "I'm afraid Cheng Dianyi has offended the princess. I'm afraid there's something going on that we don't know about. The princess is really cruel. If there's something wrong, just say it. Why would you embarrass me like this? I don't even know. At first, I thought the princess was trying to criticize me about Jinzhi's matter. It kept me awake for several nights."
Xiao Lin was stunned and looked up at Wu. Yes, could it be that Meng Qi discovered something and was using Cheng Qian to warn her?
"It's a pity that Jing'an Garden is fenced off like an iron barrel. I'm a useless person. I know that Jinzhi has been wronged, but I can't seek justice for her."
Xiaolin was puzzled, "What do you mean by sister?"
Wu said quietly, "I won't hide it from you, sister. Since the princess has called in the doctor to protect the fetus, I'm afraid she's really had a miscarriage. If we can let her suffer at this time, it will be considered as venting Jinzhi's anger."
Then he continued, "The princess hasn't even given birth to a child yet, yet she disregards us sisters and treats those around her arbitrarily. If we don't find a way to make her feel bad, how are we going to live in the future? It's a pity that I'm so incompetent, I can only watch my daughter suffer. If this happened to my sister, she would definitely find a way. She wouldn't be as cowardly as me."
Xiao Lin patted Wu's hand and said, "She is the princess. Even if we are dissatisfied, what can we do?"
"All methods are invented by people. By the way, Hu also said that the princess wanted Baochun to marry Cheng Dianyi as a concubine."
What? Xiaolin stood up. How could she not have heard this news? When did it happen?
"Sister, you don't know either. Look, what's there to understand? I don't believe Cheng Dianyi would do that. He must have discovered something about the princess, and she must have held a grudge against him. Or..."
"Or what?" Kobayashi frowned.
"Or perhaps, she wants to use Cheng Dianyi to warn someone?" Wu leaned forward. "Otherwise, it's really hard to explain. The princess and Cheng Dianyi don't have anything to do with each other. Why does she dislike him?"
Xiao Lin shuddered. Could it be that Meng Qi knew about her past with Cheng Qian? She couldn't bring herself to tell him directly, so she resorted to this method to suppress Cheng Qian and serve as a warning to her? What would her next move be? To control her?
The more Xiao Lin thought about it, the more she felt that this was possible. After she came back from the Lin family, she did not deliberately hide some things. She was afraid that Meng Qi knew the Lin family's plan, so she took this step?
Mrs. Wu looked at Xiao Lin's expression and stood up. "I don't want to chat with you anymore. I have to go back and see how the medicine for the young lady is going."
"What's wrong, young lady? I didn't hear you ask for a doctor?"
"Oh, it's an old problem. Whenever the catkins start flying, I cough for days. I have to go back and keep an eye on it, otherwise those little girls might accidentally put the wrong medicine in or mix something in, and the eldest daughter will suffer."
Xiao Lin looked at Wu's back as she walked out of the yard, seeming to be lost in thought.
As Wu walked towards Yinyan Pavilion, she wondered how much Xiaolin had taken in her words. She didn't understand why Hu had received such news, telling her to simply pin it on Cheng Dianyi and make him look as miserable as possible.
She didn't want to delve into the reasons; she just wanted to achieve her goal. "Meng Qi, you're such a good girl! I usually flatter you and surround you, but how do you treat me? This time, I'll teach you a lesson. If you don't let me have a son, then you can forget about giving birth to one peacefully."
