Inside the Begonia Courtyard, Lu Qingyan listened to Xu Mama and Fu Jingzhi talking, while Fu Zige stood aside, dissatisfied. She tried to interrupt several times but failed, and could only glare at Lu Qingyan and Fu Jingzhi with her big eyes.
As soon as Shangguan Li arrived, Fu Zige immediately threw herself into his arms, tears welling up in her eyes. Poor Shangguan Li was inconvenient now, sitting in a wheelchair, and with the added weight of another person, Lu Qingyan felt pain just watching her throw herself into his arms.
Fu Zige wiped away her tears and said timidly, "Your Highness, how pitiful my mother is. She finally got married, but she couldn't wait for the birth of her grandson."
Just as Fu Zige was saying this, Lu Qingyan keenly noticed that everyone around her was subtly glancing at Fu Zige's stomach and then at Shangguan Li's lower body.
Shangguan Ren stood there happily to the side, offering no advice.
Fortunately, Shangguan Li didn't pay attention to the looks people were giving her, otherwise she would have exploded on the spot.
The imperial physician arrived quickly. He examined Madam Fu and said to Fu Jingzhi, "Your wife's mental impairment is caused by medication. Forgive my incompetence, but I do not know what medication that person used, so I cannot cure your wife."
“Father, I told you it was because of Granny Xu—” Fu Zige was about to punish Granny Xu, but Fu Jingzhi stopped her: “Why do you always have to cause trouble for others? Don’t you think you are the more suspicious one? Your mother was fine yesterday, but she has become like this as soon as you came back today.”
"Lord Fu, watch your words!" Shangguan Li stood by, protecting Fu Zige behind him. "Zige is now a member of the Shangguan family. Lord Fu, you can't just say whatever comes to mind."
“She is both the royal family’s daughter-in-law and the daughter of my Fu family. I must teach her not to say anything carelessly!” Fu Jingzhi glanced at Shangguan Li and said, “This is my family matter. If Prince Yi does not wish to listen, he may choose to leave.”
“Your Highness, let it go.” Fu Zige tugged at Shangguan Li’s sleeve. “Father didn’t mean to argue with you like this. He’s just worried about Mother. He will definitely get to the bottom of this. Let’s go back first and not stay here.”
"Awoo, awoo..." Fu Li suddenly became excited and pounced on Fu Zige. Although she looked like she was out of her mind from the outside, who would know that she was still conscious?
However, her body was completely out of her control, as if her consciousness had separated from her body.
After being drugged, she was in a daze and knew nothing. When she regained consciousness, she heard her eldest daughter, whom she cherished dearly, say that she was leaving.
No, how can she leave? How can she leave now? Her daughter hasn't even had a chance to get justice for her yet, why should she leave? She tried to stop her daughter but could only let out a "woof". She reached out to stop Fu Zige, but startled the people around her. They thought she had gone mad and was going to hurt Zige.
Looking at Fu Lishi now, Lu Qingyan did not feel any schadenfreude.
"Zige, let's go! We don't know what Madam Fu might do in her current state. How can I feel at ease if she hurts you?" Shangguan Li advised Fu Zige.
"Father, I'll trouble you to investigate this matter. If you say that person isn't Granny Xu, I'll believe you this once. I hope you can find the murderer who harmed my mother."
After finishing speaking, Fu Zige nodded to Shangguan Li and left without looking back.
