After the assassin was taken away, Fang Qingyue realized where Shen Yuhan's big hand was touching.
She was suddenly startled and pretended to be casual as she struggled out of Shen Yuhan's arms. Then she said softly, "Your Highness, I have no grudges against the Minister of War in the past or present, so how could he have sent someone like that?"
Even though Fang Xifu had many enemies in the court because of his upright character, she had never heard that Ning Liangcai had any old grudges with her father.
Shen Yuhan patted Fang Qingyue's lower back twice: "Why don't you think about who you have offended?"
Fang Qingyue pondered for a moment, her eyes lit up: "Could it be, Shen Qiu Nian and Li?"
Shen Yuhan scratched the tip of her nose and said with a smile: "You are really smart."
"They haven't succeeded this time, and I'm afraid they will send a second wave of troops soon." Given Ning Liangcai's character of never giving up until he achieves his goal, he will definitely not be willing to fail like this.
According to other people's ideas, if the assassination fails once, they will have to make preparations again, but Ning Liangcai will definitely seize the time to send someone over again.
He must first find Ning Liangcai's handle and pin him down in the court, leaving him with no way out. If he allowed him to attack Fang Qingyue, he was afraid that he would not be able to protect Fang Qingyue every time.
Shen Yuhan stood up and told Fang Qingyue, "If there's anything, just ask the people in the mansion to do it. You should just rest well in the mansion."
Fang Qingyue nodded.
After seeing Shen Yuhan off, she couldn't help but frown as she pondered the possible relationship between Li and Ning Liangcai.
Her father did not treat her as a daughter trapped in a secluded courtyard, and would often talk to her about things in the court.
He had also heard of Ning Liangcai from his father. His father disliked Ning Liangcai very much, but he had never had any contact with Ning Liangcai.
She was sure that as a little girl, she had little interaction with Ning Liangcai and there was almost no possibility of offending Ning Liangcai.
Thinking of Shen Yuhan's words, she couldn't help but feel confused for a moment.
What is the relationship between Ning Liangcai and Li Junyi?
But if you think about it carefully...
Thinking of Shen Yuhan's ambiguous big hand gently passing over her waist, Fang Qingyue suddenly thought of something.
Could it be that Ning Liangcai and Li Junyi are having an affair behind the scenes?
After thinking carefully about some details, her eyes suddenly lit up.
At the same time, Shen Yuhan also sent more people to the mansion, fearing that Fang Qingyue would be harmed again.
When he came back in the evening, he saw Fang Qingyue frowning slightly. He subconsciously thought Fang Qingyue was seriously injured and asked in a low voice: "Do you want me to call a doctor to check your injuries?"
He was afraid that Fang Qingyue was injured somewhere that he didn't see.
Hearing this, Fang Qingyue was suddenly shocked.
After several months of pregnancy, her pulse gradually became stable. Anyone who knew a little about pulse diagnosis could tell that there was something wrong with her pulse.
Not to mention being a doctor?
If someone discovered that she was pregnant, then...
A hint of panic flashed across her face, but she quickly concealed it. When she looked up at Shen Yuhan, Fang Qingyue still had a smile on her lips.
"Your Highness, do you not trust my medical skills? I have already used the golden wound medicine, but you still need to call other doctors." Her smile was somewhat forced, and her lips were slightly pouted, as if she was a little dissatisfied.
Shen Yuhan looked at her and felt that something was wrong.
Fang Qingyue has always been very modest about her medical skills. She once told herself that even the medical records of those barefoot doctors in the countryside were referenced.
Why are you so confident now?
"Are you really sure that a few golden medicines can heal it?" Shen Yuhan touched the back of her neck, his voice gentle, "You are so beautiful. Although scars can't be said to be unattractive, they are still flaws in white jade, which is a bit regrettable."
He rarely coaxed people like this, for he was afraid that Fang Qingyue would be reluctant to seek medical treatment.
If a scar did form, he wouldn't mind it, but if a scar formed on a wound that shouldn't have scarred, that would be really bad.
Fang Chiyue also came back from outside at this moment.
She went to Mingyue Medical Clinic first today, but did not wait for Fang Qingyue. Instead, she waited for someone from the palace, who told her that Fang Qingyue had an accident, so she went back to the palace to rest.
As a last resort, she could only ask the patient waiting in the clinic to go find Doctor Wei. Fortunately, there was no delay.
After treating other patients in the clinic, she rushed back immediately and happened to hear what Shen Yuhan and Fang Qingyue were saying.
Hearing this, she hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I'll take care of my sister."
Shen Yuhan knew that she had some knowledge of medicine, so he gave up.
"Then you guys take a good rest. I still have things to take care of, so I'll go to the study first."
After Shen Yuhan left, Fang Chiyue asked in a low voice: "Sister, are you okay today?"
Fang Qingyue shook her head slightly, then lowered her voice: "The secret guard that Shen Yuhan sent to follow me saved me today, otherwise I would not have survived."
"But..." She raised her eyes and glanced out the window.
She didn't know where the secret guard was hiding, and she didn't dare to speak freely. She could only whisper, "I don't know where the secret guard is hiding in the mansion, but I believe he will always follow me. There are some things we shouldn't say openly."
She was referring to the pregnancy and the fact that she was leaving.
If the secret guard eavesdropped and Shen Yuhan knew about this, I wonder if he would force her to abort the child.
She didn't want to.
This child came with great difficulty, and even though it is not yet fully formed, she does not want to lose this child.
Fang Chiyue understood the meaning behind Fang Qingyue's words, patted Fang Qingyue's shoulder gently and comforted her, "Don't worry, sister, everything will be fine."
The next day, Ning Liangcai appeared outside the Prince Jian'an's Palace.
Behind him were several porters carrying several large wooden boxes.
After getting Shen Yuhan's approval, he immediately ordered people to carry the wooden box to Shen Yuhan's yard in the palace.
"What is Lord Ning doing?" Shen Yuhan took a sip of tea and said lightly.
Ning Liangcai forced a smile and ordered someone to open the wooden box.
Several wooden boxes were filled with wild delicacies, jewelry, silks and other items, which were classified into different categories.
"Your Majesty, these are given to you by your humble servants. Please accept them."
Hearing this, Shen Yuhan looked at Ning Liangcai deeply and said, "I will not accept gifts without merit, so I cannot accept these things from you. Sir Ning, please leave quickly."
He was not polite, but Ning Liangcai still smiled and said, "Your Highness has been worrying about the country and the people all day long, and has worked so hard. How can it be said that it has been in vain? Moreover, I did not intend to target Your Highness a few days ago. I was just worried that what Your Highness did would cause trouble for the court and other officials. I did not expect that it would cause Your Highness to be dismissed from office. I am truly sorry. Consider these things as my apology to Your Highness."
Logically speaking, as a Minister of War, no one would give him any face if he went to someone's house.
But Shen Yuhan still showed no mercy: "No need, you and I have done our job, and Master Ning really hasn't caused me any trouble, so let it go."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and said, "Come here, show the guest out!"
