Chapter 196 She Wants to Take It Back
Jiang Yunxi was angry. No matter how this child came about, he was innocent. He probably never thought that his mother would use him as a pawn.
He didn't even have the chance to be born and see this world.
"Prime Minister Chu, don't you want to know how he died?" Jiang Yunxi's voice was cold. She walked step by step towards the corner of the couch, restrained her sharpness, and looked at the baby's soul with soft eyes.
When the baby's soul saw her coming, it looked at her blankly, and then its eyes became cold and defensive.
"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you." Jiang Yunxi said softly with a friendly smile on her face.
Chu Xiang was about to speak, but when he saw Jiang Yunxi talking to the air, he frowned and asked, "Who are you talking to?"
Jiang Yunxi quickly set up a formation in the room.
Prime Minister Chu saw the soul of a baby curled up in the corner of the couch. He took a step back in shock, "This, this..."
Even if he has seen the world.
But this was his first time seeing a soul, and he was still shocked.
"This is the soul of the child in Xu's belly." Jiang Yunxi said.
"He..." Chu Xiang looked at the child's soul with complicated feelings. No matter whether the child was his or not, he could only admit that it was his. Otherwise, he would lose face if the news got out.
Jiang Yunxi said calmly, "I will take his soul away and pray for his salvation, so that he can reincarnate smoothly. Otherwise, if he stays here, when he becomes wise, he will harbor resentment and trap himself, unable to be freed."
Chu Xiang was stunned for a moment, and after a moment, he said: "You take him away, and I will bury his body properly."
"Okay." Jiang Yunxi nodded.
"As for the child's identity, Miss Jiang, there is no need to verify it. He can only be my child. Otherwise, it will not only bring shame to me, but also to Tenglong Country." Prime Minister Chu said with a sharp and serious look.
Jiang Yunxi stared at him and said, "I hope the Prime Minister will take Madam Prime Minister and Chu Leyi back home as soon as possible. I also want to remind you not to indulge in beauty, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous."
The words fell.
She put the baby's soul into the bag, turned around and left quickly.
Prime Minister Chu: "..."
When Jiang Yunxi went out, Feng and others came forward.
"Mrs. Xu is weak because she lost her child. She has no other illness. You and your daughter should stay at the manor for a while. Prime Minister Chu will come to pick you up. I'm leaving now."
Jiang Yunxi left after she finished speaking. She had to go back to pray for the soul of the baby.
Chu Leyi quickly caught up and said, "I'll take you there."
Along the way.
Chu Leyi followed quietly without saying anything.
Jiang Yunxi walked out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, looked at her and said, "Go back. Go to Zhuangzi and experience life well. And think about what you want."
Chu Leyi: "..."
Jiang Yunxi walked towards the carriage of Prince Han's Mansion, and Zhan Beiyuan was in the carriage.
He came with her.
She didn't let him go in with her.
After seeing her come back, Zhan Beiyuan asked, "Is the matter resolved?"
Jiang Yunxi shook his head.
Zhan Beiyuan sat up straight and said seriously, "Is it troublesome? Do you want me to intervene?"
Jiang Yunxi glanced at him and said, "I really need you next. Take a look at this."
She gave him what Chu Leyi had drawn.
Zhan Beiyuan took it and opened it. When he saw the pattern on it, he frowned slightly, "It looks a bit similar to the pattern you drew, Jiang Zhou, but not exactly the same."
"Yes, I noticed it too." Jiang Yunxi smiled faintly.
"Where did this pattern come from?"
"On the body of Prime Minister Chu's concubine, Xu."
Zhan Beiyuan's eyes flashed with a cold chill, and his tone was icy: "Could it be that she is related to those men in black who killed Shisan Niang back then?"
Jiang Yunxi chuckled, "They might be from the same place. Chu Leyi suspects that this Xu family is a spy from the enemy country. She has a very creative imagination, so maybe she's right."
"It seems that we need to investigate the Xu family thoroughly. Have you told Prime Minister Chu about this?" Zhan Beiyuan was full of hostility. It would be fine if he didn't find anything, but if he found a secret agent, he would definitely deal with it.
"No, let's not alert the enemy first. It's better to use the enemy's trick against them. If the other party is really trying to get close to Prime Minister Chu, he must have some ulterior motive." Jiang Yunxi had a malicious smile on his face.
Zhan Beiyuan's mind raced, and he quickly understood, "You mean to give her a false message, and even deceive Prime Minister Chu."
Jiang Yunxi smiled, "That's right."
"I have to plan this matter carefully." Zhan Beiyuan said solemnly.
"We really need to think about it carefully. It would be best if we could deal a heavy blow to the other party, causing heavy losses. That would be useful." Jiang Yunxi said meaningfully. This was also why she didn't alert the enemy.
It is easy to get rid of Xu, but the most important thing is to find out who is behind her.
"Yeah." Zhan Beiyuan agreed with her.
Orchid Garden.
Prime Minister Chu walked to the bed and sat down. "Feng and Le Yi will go to the manor tomorrow. They will come back after you recover. Take good care of yourself these days and don't go out."
"Master, I'm fine. You don't have to send my sister and Le Yi to the manor. It wasn't Le Yi who pushed me." Xu Yinyin said anxiously, holding his hand.
She was not talking nonsense. It was indeed not Chu Leyi who pushed her. She fell on purpose.
The child didn't die from falling.
She took the medicine in advance.
"Okay, stop speaking for her and have a good rest. I will find a good place to bury the child tomorrow." After saying this, Chu Xiang stood up and left.
After seeing him leave, Xu Yinyin slowly smiled. This time she was considered the winner. She quickly threw off the quilt and got out of bed.
"Aunt, you..." When the maid saw her coming out, she hurried forward to help her.
"I want to go see the child." Xu Yinyin's face was full of grief, and she was as sad as she could be.
"But your health..." The maid was very worried.
"It's okay, I want to go and spend time with my child." Xu Yinyin insisted on going to find her child.
The maidservant could only accompany her.
When they arrived at the room, Xu Yinyin went in alone without letting her maid follow her. As soon as she entered, she quickly walked towards the couch, but she only saw the child's body and did not see the baby spirit.
Where is his soul?
How could it not be here!
After thinking of something, Xu Yinyin's expression twisted. It must be Jiang Yunxi!
No wonder she wanted to see the child and said she wanted to perform a ritual to help him pass away. It was she who took his soul away. Damn it!
The child had been in her belly for seven months. If he had to die, his death had to be meaningful.
Of course, she didn't just want to frame Chu Leyi, she also wanted to raise the child's soul as a ghost, which would be very useful in the future, but now the soul was taken away by Jiang Yunxi.
Why did she want to ruin her good thing?
There was a ferocious look on Xu Yinyin's pretty face, and anger was burning in her heart. As early as when she saw Jiang Yunxi in the daytime, she inexplicably disliked him and always felt that the other party would ruin her good things.
That's why she asked her maid to inquire about her.
She didn't expect that the other party was a Taoist nun, but no matter how much she planned, she was still able to snatch the baby spirit away. No, she had to take it back.
