"Master, we still need to check to see if this person has died."
Ni Gaofei glanced coldly at the person who spoke. The servant shut up tactfully. Ni Gaofei then ordered the servant beside him, "Bring the body with you."
After leaving Zhuzhi Pavilion, Ni Gaofei ordered: "Take this man away from the capital. If you can save him, do everything you can!"
The servant understood and dragged the bloody Mingyan away.
The palace maid went to report to Ni Yueshuang that Mingyan had been taken away by Ni Gaofei. Ni Yueshuang was surprised and asked, "Is Mingyan dead?"
"The beating was pretty severe, but... he may not be dead."
"My father has never been one to meddle in other people's affairs. Why did he take action this time? Could it be that Ni Yueshan pleaded for mercy? But Mingyan was the one who killed the baby in my womb!"
Ni Yueshuang was furious, and a servant reminded her, "I heard that the Emperor has postponed the wedding of the Second Prince and Ni Yueshuang!"
"What's the point of postponing it? It's not a cancellation!"
Ni Yueshuang was extremely angry. Was it possible that her royal heir would be killed by only a housekeeper and a maid?
How could she be willing to accept this!
In Jidong Pavilion, Jing Yuchen drank several cups of tea and waved his hand quickly: "This prince is hungry, not thirsty!"
Ren Mei reminded him, "Then I'll ask the kitchen to serve the meal. Second Prince, please wait a moment!"
After Ren Mei left, Jing Yuchen looked at Ni Yueshan and asked, "Do you really think that the emperor has canceled our wedding?"
Ni Yueshan looked at Jing Yuchen strangely: "Didn't you say that at the beginning?"
Jing Yuchen snorted, "You looked so indifferent. I really didn't want to say anything at the time, but forget it. I'll say a few more words. Father didn't cancel our engagement, he just postponed the wedding. We'll hold the wedding after Ni Yueshuang leaves the Prime Minister's Mansion!"
Ni Yueshan was surprised. She glared at Jing Yuchen in annoyance: "It's fun for you to tease me!"
Jing Yuchen shook his head: "I just wanted to see your reaction, but who knew you would react so calmly, as if only I, the prince, cared about this wedding!"
As he spoke, he gradually began to sound resentful.
Ni Yueshan wanted to laugh: "I care too, really!"
Jing Yuchen had a half-believing and half-doubting expression: "Really? This prince didn't see it, but I'll reluctantly believe you!"
Afterwards, Jing Yuchen and Ni Yueshan had dinner together and then left.
Ni Yueshan asked Ren Mei to find out what happened to Ming Yan. Ren Mei reported, "I've already gone to find out. Ming Yan was surrounded and beaten by Concubine Shuang's men. Then the master showed up and took the body away, saying he wanted to bury it with the housekeeper!"
But the housekeeper was dragged out early and buried alive...
"Does Dad want to save Mingyan?" Ni Yueshan was confused. She felt that Ni Gaofei would never help her again.
"Or perhaps it was the butler's last request before his death, asking the master to consider their long-standing master-servant relationship and allow him to be buried with Mingyan?"
All of this is speculation, and Ni Yueshan has no idea what the specific situation is.
However, she would rather believe that Ni Gaofei had Mingyan taken away to save people rather than for the housekeeper.
Ni Yueshuang lost the royal heir, and in the entire prime minister's mansion, no one dared to celebrate during the New Year, let alone smile casually. The prime minister's mansion seemed very strange.
Ni Yueshan went to visit Miao Yuan. Miao Yuan's fever had subsided, but she was still in a deep sleep.
Ni Yueshan didn't stay long and left.
The next day, Jing Yuchen came to see Ni Yueshan after breakfast. Ni Yueshan was still eating buns at this time: "Don't worry, Second Prince, I am not worried about Mingyan!"
"This is not what I came here for. Did you find the house deed and the indenture from the housekeeper? Take them with you and follow me to the Tian family!"
Ni Yueshan looked at him in astonishment: "Going to the Tian family to settle the score?"
"That's right! We can't let them think that I'm easy to bully! The people I'm protecting dare to scheme against me. I must find trouble with them!"
He pulled Ni Yueshan's hand, and Ni Yueshan still had a bun in her hand: "My hands are greasy..."
Jing Yuchen took her hand and rubbed it on his clothes, wiping it clean immediately.
Ni Yueshan looked at him in shock. This...
It’s really neat!
Ni Yueshan's mouth twitched, and he was dragged out by Jing Yuchen. Ni Yueshan looked at his back and said deliberately: "And my mouth is greasy."
Jing Yuchen stopped and looked at Ni Yueshan's lips. Ni Yueshan thought Jing Yuchen would help her wipe the oil off the corner of her mouth, but he actually came over and pecked her. Ni Yueshan looked at him in surprise.
