After the person who gave the reply left, he breathed a sigh of relief, feeling fortunate that his wife hadn't blamed him for not handling things properly.
Inside the room, the wife, who was frowning, suddenly noticed Liu Hong's conflicted expression as if she wanted to speak, and couldn't help but ask, "Liu Hong, what are your thoughts?"
Liu Hong hesitated for a moment, then said, "Madam, I have an idea. Do you think it's possible that they used the previous scheme against Princess Guarjia to frame others in the inner quarters, including your mastermind?"
The princess thought for a moment and then analyzed, "What you said seems quite possible. The methods of the mastermind behind the scenes are indeed secretive. To this day, we still haven't found out who she (he) is. Since she (he) could make Guarjia fall into the trap without her knowing, it is also possible that she could make Honghui catch a cold without him noticing."
Thinking of this, the Fujin hurriedly urged her subordinates to investigate who the mastermind was, but she was not certain that it was the mastermind who had attacked Honghui, so she did not give up investigating other possibilities.
In the front yard, the Fourth Prince learned from Su Peisheng that the Princess Consort was thoroughly investigating the backyard, and thought that Honghui had been tricked and caught a cold.
"Master, should we remind the Princess Consort?" Su Peisheng thought about the various disturbances in the inner courtyard, and since the master always disliked chaos in the inner courtyard, he quickly suggested in a low voice.
The Fourth Master thought for a moment, then said calmly, "She won't believe it."
Even if he told his wife that Honghui's illness was a sign of his poor health, because he was weak and couldn't stand the cold, he felt that given his wife's personality, she was very likely not to believe him. She would be more likely to suspect that something was done in the backyard.
If he explained Honghui's condition to his wife in detail, she would probably believe him. However, he was worried about the consequences.
After all, given how much the Fujin (princess's wife) cared for Honghui, she would definitely go mad if she knew that Honghui's life was coming to an end.
He wasn't sure his mad wife wouldn't harm his other children, nor was he sure he could keep an eye on her.
