Geng Youran was immediately puzzled. Why would Wanru pretend to be pregnant?
Once discovered, she and her family are finished!
Geng Youran hurriedly walked out, wanting to ask for clarification, but was stopped by Qianxue and Xiao Anzi.
“Princess, now is not the time to act impulsively. This servant believes that Princess Niohuru does indeed have other hidden reasons. You think, she is such a cautious person, even if she has suffered a great injustice, she would not take such a big risk for Prince Hongli.”
Geng Youran gulped down a cup of tea before she calmed down a little.
She felt that Xiao Anzi made sense; Wanru wouldn't have done something so dangerous if she hadn't already planned her escape route.
Qianxue cautiously said from the side:
"Princess, I have something to say, but I don't know if I should?"
“Speak up, what is there that you’re afraid of?”
Seeing that her princess had calmed down, Qianxue then voiced the possibilities she had just considered:
“Princess, this servant thinks that perhaps you are the escape route that Princess Niohuru has arranged for herself.”
“…Go on.”
“Princess, think about it. Everyone in this mansion knows that you and Princess Niohuru are the closest. Our Prince Hongzhou and Prince Hongli are about the same age and have a good relationship. Even if this matter is discovered and Princess Niohuru is punished by the Prince, Prince Hongli will most likely be taken care of by you.”
Geng Youran remained silent, thought about it, and felt that what Qianxue said made a lot of sense.
Perhaps now is not the time to break through this barrier.
"In that case, Xiao Anzi, you should go back quickly and make sure no one finds out."
"Yes, sir!"
Geng Youran, on the other hand, remained cooped up in her room, continuing to ponder the matter, and didn't even take a nap.
In the afternoon, Qianxue went to check on the small kitchen, then went inside and found Geng Youran:
"Princess, the rice seems to be almost soaked."
Geng Youran stretched and then went to the small kitchen. Seeing that the color of the rice had indeed changed, she scooped it out and steamed it.
"Qianxue, keep an eye on things here. After the rice is steamed, put it in the yard to dry for a while. Once it turns a bright green color, put it in a jar."
"yes."
Afterwards, Geng Youran went back to her room to rest.
