Chapter 28 Witchcraft 2



Shen Liangyuan said at this time: "Whether there is one or not, just let someone check it out."

The Crown Princess also spoke, "Come here, bring the person up."

After a while, a young eunuch was brought up, and the Crown Princess asked, "Tu Liangyuan, do you recognize him?"

"He is... a second-rank eunuch in my palace, so of course I recognize him."

The Crown Princess looked at the eunuch and said, "Come on, tell me exactly what you said to me before."

"Yes." The young eunuch kowtowed and then said, "I happened to see Tu Liangyuan playing with a little figurine. At first I thought it was made by Madam Yang to amuse her, but later..."

"Why are you hesitating? Hurry up and say it!" Shen Liangyuan said sternly.

Jiang Jingchuan glanced at her indifferently, and she didn't dare to say anything more.

She was too impatient. If she said a few more words, she was afraid that His Highness would become suspicious of her.

The young eunuch continued, "But I never knew that several times later, I saw words written on that villain's body."

"At the time, I didn't realize the seriousness of the matter. I was just confused. One day, when Madam Yang, Chief Steward Xiaoshan and others were accompanying the master out, they found the puppet that the master usually played with."

"I never thought that the doll actually had its birth date written on it, along with many silver needles."

"I was terrified at the time, thinking, 'Isn't this witchcraft?'"

He kowtowed again and said, "I know I shouldn't have rummaged through my master's things. I deserve death."

"But Master." He looked up at Tu Qingyu, "That method is really too vicious. Master, please don't make the same mistake again!"

"Heh." Tu Qingyu looked at him coldly, "You and the master behind you are really smart."

The young eunuch looked at those calm eyes and suddenly felt a little scared.

But having come this far, he had no way back and could only bite the bullet and say, "This servant does not understand what the master is talking about. Since entering the palace, this servant has been serving in the Qionghua Palace. It was only after the master came that he was promoted to the second rank. You are the only master."

"Don't." Tu Qingyu seemed to be in great pain. She leaned back and said, "I don't have a slave like you."

"There are too many loopholes in your words. First of all, how did a second-class eunuch like you enter my inner palace? Or would I commit such a heinous crime outside?"

"When I go out, the inner hall is always locked. How did you get in? Flying?"

The young eunuch was speechless and panicked. He could only lower his head and kept saying, "Master, please admit it. This is really wrong."

Tu Qingyu ignored him and looked at Jiang Jingchuan, "Your Highness, what do you think?"

Jiang Jingchuan: "His words are truly unconvincing."

Shen Liangyuan simply couldn't bear to see her being so calm when something like this happened.

If it were someone else, he would have knelt down and apologized when the prince and his men came in.

Unlike her, who was held and coaxed by the prince.

It has come to this point, but she is still not in a hurry. She wants to see if she can still remain calm in the face of danger.

The Crown Princess spoke at the right moment, "Your Highness, since this little eunuch said the doll is in Tu Liangyuan's palace, why not have someone search it? We have to find the thing before we can continue the investigation."

The prince looked at Tu Qingyu who was in pain and was afraid that she would not be able to bear the pain, so he wanted to finish it quickly and let the imperial physician examine her as soon as possible.

Anyway, even if he finds out, he has a backup plan ready.

Tu Qingyu grabbed his arm and said, "Your Highness, are you really going to search my palace just because of a eunuch's unconvincing words?"

"Be good, I trust you. Only after I have searched you, regardless of whether there is anything, can I continue the investigation and clear your name."

"Then search it." She let go of his hand and leaned back weakly. "It's really strange. As the Crown Prince's concubine, your residence has been searched twice in just over two months."

"That's ridiculous."

Jiang Jingchuan clenched his fists; he also found it ridiculous.

He had vowed to protect her, but now he had frightened and humiliated her time and time again.

It's his fault.

Just this once, never again.

A dark light flashed in his eyes, and after a while, he said in a deep voice: "Go search."

The young eunuch did not leave the inner hall at all, and led his men to find the cabinet locked by Tu Qingyu accurately.

"It was in here when I saw it."

"Someone come here..." He San was about to ask someone to break the lock, but the next moment, he saw Nanny Yang handing him the key to the cabinet.

He San: ...

Otherwise, Master Tu would be able to gain the favor of His Highness.

When the cabinet was opened, a doll with silver needles stuck in it was actually found.

"ah--!"

Shen Liangyuan screamed, and the Crown Princess almost fell down. The nanny behind her helped her up.

"You still say no!" Shen Liangyuan shouted, "Tu Liangyuan, who are you going to use this villain to deal with? Huh?"

"Quick, quick, look whose birth date is above." The Crown Princess subconsciously protected her belly with her hands.

Normally, it would be nothing. If the birth date and time were hers, she would just be using her birth date and time to make a favorite concubine disappear.

But now that she is pregnant, she can no longer be as indifferent as before.

At this moment, Tu Qingyu seemed to finally be unable to bear the pain. He fell weakly to the side and fainted on the couch.

"Master—!" Nanny Yang yelled, "Master, what's wrong with you, Master?"

She hugged the person and shouted, "Imperial Physician! Call the Imperial Physician!"

The moment Jiang Jingchuan saw the man fall down, his heart skipped a beat.

He shouted, "Imperial Physician!"

Chen Liangyuan pushed Cheng Hui, who took a step forward and whispered, "Did you do anything bad and try to get away with it by pretending to faint?"

Someone echoed, "Yes, this is a serious crime that will lead to the confiscation of property and extermination of the entire clan. Playing dumb won't help."

"Shut up!" Jiang Jingchuan was already annoyed and couldn't stand their sarcastic remarks. "Get out! Kneel in the outer hall!"

"Your Highness..."

"roll!"

At this time, he took Tu Qingyu from Nanny Yang's arms. Nanny Yang glanced at the baby, realized something was wrong, and crawled to He San.

She grabbed the doll from his hand, turned it over, and looked at it, then exclaimed in shock: "This is the birth date of my master!"

She looked towards Tu Qingyu with grief and anger, "This is my master's horoscope!"

Everyone was shocked, and Shen Liangyuan subconsciously said: “How is this possible?!”

Her personal nanny squeezed her arm, signaling her not to say the wrong thing.

Jiang Jingchuan was also shocked. His heart and eyes were now filled with the person in his arms, and he did not notice that something was wrong with Shen Liangyuan.

But Nanny Yang noticed it. She looked at Shen Liangyuan sharply and asked, "Why is it impossible? Does Shen Liangyuan know something?"

"What nonsense are you talking about, my slave? How could I possibly know anything? I just thought, how could it be her own birth date in her own palace!"

"Shut up, everyone!"

Jiang Jingchuan shouted loudly, and everyone fell silent.
