Song Shiyao ordered Ah Mo: "Go and capture Liu Xiangjun's brother Liu Chongxiao and find out the source of the poisonous powder in this rouge."
A Mo bowed: "Yes."
When Liu Xiangjun heard that they were going to arrest her brother, she immediately became anxious and said, "No, this has nothing to do with my brother."
Song Shiyao stared at Liu Xiangjun with a cold look in his eyes: "It seems that you admit it."
He looked at the guards who were holding Liu Xiangjun, "Tie her up and take her to the dungeon for interrogation."
Liu Xiangjun was dragged away by two guards, and the other concubines in the room were so scared that they huddled up and trembled.
Song Shiyao returned to the main courtyard.
Yu Jinshu had just finished taking a shower and was about to go to bed.
She knew something about what happened at the martial arts training ground tonight and what happened at the Xiangyuan.
Song Shiyao took off his cloak and hugged Yu Jinshu tightly in his arms as soon as he saw her.
His lips touched her earlobe, his voice choked with sobs, "Jinshu, I originally thought you would be safe by my side, but I didn't expect them to be so vicious."
Yu Jinshu asked, "Did you find out who it was?"
Song Shiyao said, "It was Bai Luoxue and Liu Xiangjun. Bai Luoxue had her face disfigured. Liu Xiangjun was the mastermind behind this, and she also asked her brother to buy the poison. Ah Mo is investigating now. Once the facts are verified, I will kill Liu Xiangjun and her brother."
The female doctor has found out the composition of the poison powder. If this poison powder is used too much and once it seeps into the skin, it will damage the skin and become untreatable.
Even if the poison is removed, the corroded skin cannot be restored to its original state.
Bai Luoxue's face was ruined and could never be healed.
For a woman, this is probably more painful than death!
Fang Zhi had brought warm tea. When he heard what Song Shiyao said, his hand trembled and the teapot fell on the table. The sound startled Song Shiyao and Yu Jinshu.
Song Shiyao let go of Yu Jinshu and turned to look over.
Fang Zhi was so frightened that she knelt down immediately and said tremblingly, "Your Highness, it was my servant who accidentally dropped the teapot."
Song Shiyao frowned. He had only just dropped a teapot, so why was he so frightened? Was he really that scary?
As long as they don't harm his princess, he generally won't care if others make small mistakes.
Yu Jinshu looked at Fang Zhi's terrified expression and knew very well that Fang Zhi was worried that Bai Luoxue and Liu Xiangjun would betray her.
Of course, they will definitely tell Fang Zhi.
Sure enough, A Mo came.
Song Shiyao walked out of the bedroom.
Ah Mo pointed at Fang Zhi in the room and said, "Your Highness, she is also an accomplice."
Song Shiyao's eyes seemed to flash with a cold light. He glanced at Fang Zhi and said sternly, "Catch her."
Ah Mo waved his hand, and two guards went into the room and dragged Fang Zhi out.
Fang Zhi kept shouting, "Your Highness, please spare my life, please spare this servant!"
Song Shiyao said coldly: "Anyone who dares to hurt the princess will not be forgiven."
In the room, Yu Jinshu listened to Song Shiyao's words and felt warm in her heart. This man is so good!
Song Shiyao entered the room, hugged Yu Jinshu and comforted her: "Jinshu, it's all my fault. I didn't know Fang Zhi was also a bad person. I even arranged for her to come and take care of your daily life. It almost caused a big mistake."
Yu Jinshu said calmly, "Your Majesty, I don't blame you. You can only know a person's face but not their heart. If you don't get along with them, you won't know whether they are good or bad."
Song Shiyao picked her up and carried her horizontally on the bed. He sat on the edge of the bed and gently stroked her still flat belly. "This king will send all the remaining ten concubines away. Not a single one will be left."
Yu Jinshu said, "Why not leave my sister to me?"
Song Shiyao frowned: "Yu Xiangwei?"
Yu Jinshu nodded: "Yes."
Song Shiyao shook his head: "My uncle said that Yu Xiangwei has a domineering personality, and besides, she is not your biological sister."
Yu Jinshu said, "Although she is not my biological sister, my parents both treat her as their own. Besides, her personality has changed a lot since she became a concubine."
Once Yu Xiangwei leaves the palace, her father will definitely marry her off to a good family.
Such a bad person, and Yu Xiangwei and Liu Xiangjun are in cahoots, how can we let her have an easy life?
After hearing what Yu Jinshu said, Song Shiyao had no choice but to agree, "Since she has improved, then let her stay in the palace to accompany you."
That night, the nine concubines except Yu Xiangwei received orders from His Royal Highness Prince Wei to pack up their things tonight and leave the palace early tomorrow morning to return home.
All nine concubines will receive corresponding compensation.
The nine concubines knew about Bai Luoxue and Liu Xiangjun's affair. They were all terrified and stayed up all night packing their dowries and belongings.
The next morning, the nine concubines boarded the carriage arranged by the palace.
In the dungeon, after a night of interrogation, Liu Xiangjun confessed that she had recruited Bai Luoxue to murder the princess.
Liu Xiangjun and her brother Liu Chongxiao were executed, their father was dismissed from his official position, and the entire family was confiscated and punished.
Of course, Bai Luoxue not only had her face ruined, but her family was also convicted because of her. Her father's official position was removed, and his property was also searched and he was interrogated.
Later, Yu Jinshu heard from A Mo that Zhao Dun took Bai Luoxue away and did not mind that Bai Luoxue had a ruined face.
However, Bai Luoxue couldn't bear her disfigurement and tried to commit suicide several times, but was saved by Zhao Dun every time.
In the backyard of the palace, Yu Xiangwei was also frightened. She behaved herself well for four months, staying in her yard every day, feeling lonely and helpless.
That day, Yu Xiangwei was shocked when she heard from her maid that Yu Jinshu was pregnant.
During these four months, she would occasionally go to the main courtyard to pay her respects to Yu Jinshu, to maintain their relationship, and to test whether the prince was interested in her, but she never found any signs that Yu Jinshu was pregnant.
Yu Jinshu was pregnant with twins, and her belly had grown bigger in less than three months, but it was not noticeable because of her loose clothes.
In addition, she took a pregnancy pill, so being pregnant wouldn't be that hard, so if she didn't tell anyone, no one else would know.
It was only when her belly had grown so big that it was visible at a glance that she announced the matter.
Four months is enough to smooth over a person's fear of the unknown.
When Yu Xiangwei learned that Yu Jinshu was pregnant, she had the idea again.
She knew from a young age that pregnancy was extremely difficult for women, and she didn't know whether she could give birth to the child safely and save her own life.
Some people also say that if six or seven out of ten pregnant women can survive, it is considered good.
This is a great opportunity for Yu Xiangwei. Once she misses it, it will be difficult for her to deal with Yu Jinshu.
Yu Xiangwei thought hard for several days but could not think of any good way to deal with Yu Jinshu. Until one day, Song Shiyao was about to ride a fast horse back to the capital to visit his sick mother.
Song Shiyao didn't want to leave Yu Jinshu at this time, but he had to follow filial piety and he couldn't not go.
Before leaving, Song Shiyao brought the governor's wife Han Youyi to the palace to take care of Yu Jinshu.
Yu Xiangwei was raised by Han Youyi, and in her heart, Han Youyi is her mother.
And with her mother around, she could go to the main courtyard often to accompany her mother and Yu Jinshu.
