"When you decided to marry Songzi, the lady ordered me to look into Songzi." Bai Lu said apologetically, "I'm sorry, but at the time I only found out that he was indeed married, and his wife was indeed dead, leaving no children.
But his current wife is the adopted daughter of the Fourth Prince's housekeeper... I didn't check it out at the time."
"No." Dongxue was trying to find reasons to convince herself and Bailu, "If she really was the housekeeper's adopted daughter, why would he threaten Songzi? And I believe in your abilities. The people in Prince Xuan's mansion will not make mistakes."
"..." Bai Lu reminded, "She's an adopted daughter, not a biological daughter. Perhaps, he said this on purpose for you to hear. Who knows."
The mansion where Songzi saw the doctor was actually their home."
Dongxue laughed and cried, "Brother Songzi, tell me, the master asked him to stay at their house. They are worried that if something happens to the patient at night, they will have to go and ask for him to stay."
Bai Lu stopped talking and just wondered in his heart why he hadn't noticed it before.
Bai Lu felt extremely upset about this. If he had been more careful and cautious at that time, Dongxue would not be in this state now.
"sorry……"
After Bai Lu finished speaking, Dong Xue fell to the ground, unconscious.
When Dongxue opened her eyes again, the first thing she saw was Chang'an.
"Miss..." Dongxue started to cry, "Dongxue feels bad."
"Since it hurts, then let it be all over once and for all." Chang An was heartbroken, but she had to endure all the pain. "The child in your belly is gone."
"……Um."
Surprisingly, Dongxue stopped crying and her face showed dejection.
"If you want," the chief suggested, "I'll make the decision and you can divorce him."
Dongxue nodded, looked at Chang'an, and then shook her head, "I don't want to."
At this moment, he made up his mind and his eyes became more determined. "Miss, I want to go back. There are some things I want to ask him in person."
"Okay. But you have to take care of yourself first." Chang'an said.
Outside the door, Fu Cheng's anxious voice sounded, "Princess, I have something to report."
Listening to Fu Cheng's voice, Chang'an felt very panicked for no reason.
She turned around and went out, and saw that Fu Cheng and Fu Lin were both there. "What happened that makes you so panicked?"
"Something happened to the prince. The emperor issued an imperial decree and the prince was imprisoned."
"What's going on?" "What's going on?" "Tell me clearly."
"Early in the morning, the prince went to the emperor's study. Not long after, the sound of something being smashed was heard from the study. Then the emperor issued an imperial decree to have the prince imprisoned in the palace."
"You don't know why either?" Chang'an asked.
"There's more." Fu Cheng seemed to have suddenly thought of something. "News came from the palace. At the court this morning, the emperor suddenly announced that the crown prince would succeed the Shuzhou throne on the Lantern Festival. And the emperor would retire as the emperor."
"Well," Chang'an thought for a moment, "Fu Cheng, go to the palace and secretly look for Eunuch Cheng. Bring the Fire Fox with you and release it once you enter the palace. Fu Lin, go find Xu Zichu."
An hour later, Fu Cheng returned, "Princess, Eunuch Cheng said. He didn't know what the emperor and the prince said. The emperor asked him to stay outside, and the voices inside were very low, as if they were deliberately suppressed.
But when Prince Xuan entered the Imperial Study, especially from the quarrel, he heard that the Emperor seemed to want him to announce to the public that the Princess had passed away, and then give her a different identity and marry her into the Crown Prince's residence as his concubine.
"How come the emperor suddenly came up with such a ridiculous idea?" Chang'an thought to himself, it must be related to puppetry.
"Princess, I'm back." It was Fu Lin.
"Come in and talk."
"Reporting to the princess, Master Xu has found out that the Crown Prince did find out that Prime Minister Lin's daughter entered the palace after she disappeared." Fu Lin said, "Master Xu said that it is inconvenient for him to come to the palace at this time. He is preparing everything outside and awaiting the princess's order."
Chang An frowned and glanced at Fu Lin, "When you see Xu Zichu again, remember to tell him not to be so blunt. It sounds like you're going to start a rebellion."
"...Uh, maybe that's what Master Xu meant."
"!!!" Chang'an looked at Fu Lin unhappily, "Repeat what I said. Also, no matter whether it's the prince's matter or that Kurihara Naiko's matter, you are not allowed to reveal it to anyone, including Fu Xueer. Can you do it?"
Fu Lin blushed and hesitated, "I will follow the princess's instructions, but... but Xue'er should have known that we have imprisoned Kurihara Naoko."
Chang An raised his eyebrows and said with a tone of deep displeasure, "You told her?"
Fu Lin lowered his head but said nothing.
"I'm going to the palace to see your prince. Remember to keep an eye on Naoko Kurihara."
The palace prison is unlike prisons in other places.
This is a prison specifically for imprisoning royal descendants.
Anyone who is locked up in this prison probably has no hope of getting out in this lifetime.
It was my first time in Chang'an. I didn't expect it to be so clean and tidy here, but it was damp and there was no sunshine.
For ordinary people, it might be okay to stay here for a few days, but Bei Mingxuan was already infected with a cold poison. His body would not be able to withstand staying here for a few days, even for a day.
Bei Mingxuan, who was sitting in the cell with his eyes slightly closed, heard footsteps.
The corners of his lips curled up, with a hint of helplessness on his face. When he opened his eyes, Chang'an had already walked to the door of his cell.
"It's so cold, and you're still out." Bei Mingxuan said, having already opened the cell door. "You're freezing, I feel bad for you."
"I know you will be fine, but I will feel uneasy if I don't see you." At this time, Chang'an saw the fire fox sticking its head out from Bei Mingxuan's sleeve.
There was a hint of appreciation in his eyes, "It's quite clever, it found you early."
"Don't worry. For your sake, I won't let anything happen to myself." Bei Mingxuan pulled Chang'an into his arms, "The prince already knows about Kurihara Naizi's situation at the mansion."
"Yes." Chang'an nodded, taking a deep breath. "Xu Zichu has already found out that he entered the palace after the Crown Prince obtained the fake Lin Yanran's disappearance. So, not only did he know about Kurihara Nako's disappearance, but he was also certain that she was in our mansion. So, in all likelihood, he has an informant in our mansion."
Bei Mingxuan thought for a moment, "There shouldn't be any of his spies in our house."
"But, the truth is, we did underestimate the prince."
"The Crown Prince's actions are tantamount to digging his own grave." Bei Mingxuan's eyes were smiling and full of determination. "Especially Bei Minghong and Bei Mingye. With our father in a coma, they will definitely take the opportunity to completely destroy him."
"How did you know that the emperor was in a coma?" Chang'an said, "At that time, he had already been brought here. Besides, I just learned about the news that the emperor was in a coma."
"Haha." A hint of pride flashed across Bei Mingxuan's face, "Have you forgotten that you still have it?"
