Chapter 1023 Rongchuan

Zhulan tapped the lady's forehead and said, "I'm waiting for you to speak. What are you thinking about?"

Xue Han stretched out her fingers and hooked her mother's sleeve, "Mom, today, Concubine Liu of the Crown Prince's Mansion had a miscarriage. I was sitting opposite Concubine Liu and saw it clearly. It was all blood, Mom, it was all blood."

She was so frightened at the time that she was about to have a miscarriage. If she hadn't been holding the prince's second son in her arms, she would have fainted if she had covered the child's eyes with her hands.

Zhulan knew her adopted daughter well, so she asked, "What else happened?"

Xue Han's heart was pounding. "You have always taught your daughter to be cautious, so since I became pregnant, Shui Po has never left my side. After I left the Prince's Mansion, Shui Po told me that she smelled several girls with the smell of medicine on them, and one of them came after me. Shui Po secretly blocked her because we were in the Prince's Mansion, but she didn't make it public."

Zhulan was terrified. If it wasn't for the water maid, Xuehan wouldn't be pregnant today. She held the lady's hand tightly and asked, "Have you mentioned this to the Crown Princess?"

Xue Han shook her head, "This matter involves the concubine of the Crown Prince's Mansion who has a son. After thinking it over, I didn't say anything. Shui Pozi also said that this matter is the Crown Prince's Mansion's business, and it's best to let the Crown Princess investigate. As an outsider, it's better for me to pretend that I don't know."

Zhu Lan thought, this is because Xue Han is fine. If something were to happen, it would not be solved this way. It is indeed difficult to handle when it involves the Crown Prince's Mansion. The Ning family is the Crown Prince's maternal family. "So it seems that what happened today was intentional, and the target is you."

Xue Han thought so too. Rong Chuan treasured her very much. If anything happened to her, the Prince's Mansion would have to give an explanation. But Rong Chuan must have felt uncomfortable. "The tone was directed at his daughter, but in fact it was directed at the Prince."

Zhulan was pleased that her daughter had grown up. "So you should be more careful. Just take care of the fetal movement this time. I have postponed some of the posts."

Xue Han nodded, "Yeah."

She was also very scared and felt uncomfortable when she came back. She was afraid that there might be something wrong with her eating. Fortunately, the imperial physician checked and found nothing was wrong.

Zhulan saw that the lady was tired and frightened today. She sat aside and motioned for the lady to close her eyes and rest. The lady fell asleep with his hand still holding her. Zhulan was furious. She knew that the lady would be plotted against after marrying into the marquis's mansion. She had always been mentally prepared, but when it really happened, she was still angry.

Zhulan saw that the lady had frowned and was sleeping very restlessly. She raised her hand and patted her like a child, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, mother is here."

Xue Han's frown slowly relaxed, but one hand was still holding her mother.

Zhulan was wondering who had done it. Based on her woman's intuition, she thought it was Zhang Yang. No, it was the power behind Zhang Yang. They had been plotting against the Prince of Qi, then the Prince of Liang, and now the Crown Prince. It was too troublesome for the Crown Prince to hold the position, so it would be more convenient to plot only if the Crown Prince was gone.

The most crucial thing is, who has the ability to cause trouble in the Prince's Mansion? Obviously he must be hiding deeper. Zhulan lowered her eyes. She believed in her own judgment and intuition. After enduring for so many years, she could not wait any longer.

In the palace, in the Zheng Palace, the emperor was investigating faster. Today he was looking for his youngest daughter-in-law. As for his son's concubine, she was hiding her pregnancy, so she ignored the trap. "Prince, what do you think?"

How would the prince see it? He was furious. He thought the Prince's Mansion was the cleanest, but today he was slapped in the face. "My son will investigate thoroughly and won't let anyone off the hook."

Your Majesty, "Your family doesn't have only these few people. Check them out carefully."

He was shocked. He also participated in the cleaning of the Prince's Mansion. As a result, the Prince must not be in trouble and had a gloomy face. There were also many rats in the palace.

As soon as the prince came out of the government hall, he met his mother's lady-in-waiting. The lady-in-waiting stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, the Queen Mother has something to say to you."

The prince stopped and said, "You say."

The female official said, "Concubine Liu's miscarriage has nothing to do with Prince Ning's wife. Today's incident is all due to the dispute between the crown princes."

The prince understood what his mother meant. Today, she was targeting Zhou Xuehan, but in fact, she was targeting her. His mother didn't want him to remember it. He was a little speechless. He really didn't take it to heart, but his mother immediately protected him. He could see that this younger sister-in-law occupied a very high position in his mother's heart. "I understand. I will go back and tell mother so that she doesn't have to worry."

The female official greeted, "Yes."

After the prince waited for the female officials to leave, he thought of Concubine Liu, this restless concubine who had kept her pregnancy a secret for three months. He knew the reason very well. She had been scheming and scheming and ended up hurting herself. If she had told him, he would have sent someone to follow her and she would not have been tricked today.

It was too late for Zhou Shuren to find out. When he returned home, he did not see his wife. He frowned and asked the housekeeper, only then did he know that his wife was in Ning Hou Mansion and that something had happened to the daughter-in-law.

Zhou Shuren did not change his official uniform, but sat on the chair, facing away from Chang Yi who was following him, and asked him to shrink his neck to reduce his presence.

Chang Yi swallowed his saliva. His father's current momentum was alarming. He seldom saw his father get angry, but his father's current look made him want to run away.

Zhou Shuren thought for a while before getting up to change his clothes. When he came out, he saw Changyi still there. "Why are you sitting here like an idiot instead of changing your clothes?"

Chang Yi looked at his father carefully. His father had returned to his old self. It seemed like an illusion. Before his father became an official, he told himself that he should not offend his father. He knew that his father was narrow-minded, very narrow-minded. "Dad, are you going to pick up mom?"

Zhou Shuren hummed, "Each room can eat on their own today."

Having said that, Zhou Shuren quickly left with Jianyan.

Changyi waited for his father to leave, then he touched his forehead, let out a breath, and then shuddered again. This capital city was too scary.

At Ninghou Mansion, Rongchuan returned home and found out that his wife had a miscarriage, all because Xuehan had prevented him from telling Rongchuan.

Zhulan walked out of the room and sat on a chair, recalling Rongchuan's expression. Xuehan was Rongchuan's reverse scale, and Rongchuan would not endure it if his reverse scale was touched.

Inside the room, Xue Han took Rong Chuan's hand and shook it gently, "Don't be so sullen and silent. I'm the one who was frightened. Do you want to scare me now too?"

Rong Chuan was unwilling to scare Xue Han, but he couldn't laugh, "I should have protected you better. I knew that you would face conspiracy and danger if you married me, but I didn't protect you well."

Rongchuan regretted marrying Xuehan too early. He could have waited for two years. He would rather face the plot alone.

Xue Han was frightened, but she recovered and was very strong. "Don't be like this. It makes me uncomfortable. I was also very careful. Look, I just dodged it."

Rongchuan was afraid. He had gotten away with it this time, but what about the next time? As long as the crown prince didn't succeed to the throne, the Ning family would be the target. It would only get worse in the future. He held his wife's hand tightly, his eyes deep, and he would chop off anyone who moved his hand.
