Xiao Hezi frowned in confusion, but then noticed his master's confident expression and immediately asked, "Master, what have you discovered?"
"Little He is indeed sharp-eyed and meticulous." After praising her, she turned to what she had discovered: "Secondly, let's talk about the Eighth Prince's wife. Judging from how you dealt with Wang Shi before, she either slapped her directly, made her kneel in front of you, or even whipped her directly. It is clear that her methods are direct."
Xiao Hezi suddenly realized, "The method that caused Wang's premature birth seems to be drugging or something. This method is subtle and indirect, unlike the style of the Eighth Prince's wife."
“That’s right,” Jiaming said, giving Xiao Hezi an approving look before continuing, “Also, don’t you guys think that Wang woman is a bit too formidable?”
"How so?" Red Peach asked, looking confused.
Xiao Hezi also cast a questioning look at Jiaming.
Jiaming squinted, thought for a moment, and then said, “Judging from the information you sent, the Eighth Prince’s wife’s methods are so direct and drastic that Wang Shi almost miscarried every time. But she always managed to pull through, and her body and the baby in her womb recovered quickly. So, I guess she must have some means to ensure that she is safe.”
Upon hearing this, Xiao Hezi blurted out, "Master, are you saying she has some powerful medicine?"
“Yes,” Jiaming nodded and continued, “Of course, it could also be something else. So, for premature birth and such, there are those medicines and such. Well, let’s just assume they are medicines. With such powerful medicines available, it should be quite easy to have a successful premature birth.”
That makes sense. Xiao Hezi, Hongtao, and Lvliu, who had been listening without saying a word, all nodded in agreement.
“But that doesn’t make sense,” Hongtao still didn’t quite understand. “It’s also possible that it was the Eighth Prince’s wife who did it, changing the methods or something. And then, Wang happened to have the life-saving medicine, so she was able to keep both mother and child safe despite being born eight months prematurely.”
Xiao Hezi stared speechlessly at Hongtao as she continued speaking, until her voice grew softer and softer. Finally, she said leisurely, "Tsk, I told you your brain isn't very good. Didn't Master just say that?"
"What did you say?" Hearts asked cooperatively.
“It’s quite easy to have a premature birth,” Xiao Hezi said, emphasizing the word “want”. He continued, “With the medicine, Wang Shi will definitely be fine if she has a premature birth. Moreover, Wang Shi might have thought of this, which is why she did it herself and can also frame the Eighth Prince’s wife. It’s a win-win situation.”
The more Hongtao listened, the more reasonable Xiao Hezi's words seemed. However, she didn't want to admit defeat, so she turned to Jiaming and asked, "Is this what you mean, Master?"
Jiaming: "..." They actually asked me that?! That's exactly what I meant!
A moment later, Red Peach realized what had happened, her face flushed red, and she lowered her head, thinking to herself: How embarrassing!
Finally, Jiaming saw that her head was almost touching the ground, so she helped her and changed the subject, saying, "This Wang Gege is quite a formidable character!"
