Su Ruojin nodded. "Yes, in my Su family, when men marry, and when women marry, we don't consider the social standing of the family. We value mutual affection between the two people. A man only marries one wife and never takes a concubine. A daughter only marries a man as his principal wife, and her husband is not allowed to take concubines."
"Oh, that's wonderful~" The Crown Princess sighed softly and fell silent, seemingly lost in her own thoughts. Su Ruojin, who was not one to talk much, also fell silent.
The four of them walked onto a small arched bridge in the garden. Suddenly, the Crown Princess lost her footing and slipped, her six-month pregnant belly slamming heavily against the bridge's handrail.
The Crown Princess fell backward uncontrollably. Miao Dong was terrified, but Yan Luo reacted quickly and pounced on the ground, causing the Crown Princess to fall on top of her.
"Ah, blood, the Crown Princess, blood!" Miao Dong was terrified when she saw blood seeping through the Crown Princess's clothes. She turned pale and was completely at a loss, not knowing what to do.
Su Ruojin immediately pulled up the Crown Princess, took her wrist, and frowned, "Quickly, go back to your room."
The Crown Princess was clutching her stomach, sweating profusely from the pain, her lips pale, and she could no longer speak. It was impossible to let her walk back now. Su Ruojin half-squatted down, "Quick, help her onto my back."
Yanluo wanted to help her young mistress, but she had been pinned down by the Crown Prince's wife and injured her foot. Su Ruojin yelled at her, "What time is it? Hurry up!"
The two maids hurriedly helped the Crown Princess onto Su Ruojin's back and rushed towards the nearest room.
Upon arriving at the room, Su Ruojin quickly administered acupuncture and wrote out a prescription for Miaodong to prepare the medicine.
After all the trouble, the Crown Princess's bleeding stopped, and the baby was saved.
"The Crown Princess needs to rest in bed for a period of time."
"Princess, thank you," the Crown Prince's wife said weakly.
Miao Dong came over and said, "Princess, we are so grateful to you today. I will have someone take you to your room to rest and change your clothes."
Having just carried the Crown Prince's wife back, and with the subsequent treatment, Su Ruojin's dress was inevitably stained with blood, making it indeed unsuitable to wear out again.
She didn't refuse and was about to get up and go out with Miaodong when the Crown Prince's wife grabbed her wrist.
Su Ruojin turned around with some confusion and saw the First Princess Consort with red eyes, looking somewhat reluctant, and gently shaking her head at her.
Su Ruojin smiled gently and patted her hand, "Your Highness, it's alright. Rest assured and I'll come to see you again later."
Yanluo was about to follow when Miaodong stopped her, saying, "Sister Yanluo, the Crown Princess cannot be left alone. Could you please watch over her for a while until the royal physician arrives before you leave?"
Just as Yanluo was about to refuse, Su Ruojin said, "Yanluo, you stay and take care of the Crown Princess. I'll come back as soon as I change my clothes."
Seeing that her young mistress had spoken, Yanluo had no choice but to agree.
The maidservant led Su Ruojin away from the Crown Prince's wife's room and towards another courtyard.
Arriving at the door of a room in the courtyard, the maid pushed open the door, bowed, and said, "Princess, the new dress is already inside. Please change and rest for a while. I will come to call you later."
"Mm." Su Ruojin nodded.
The moment the maid turned around, she raised her hand and delivered a swift chop, sending the maid sprawling to the ground.
At this moment, Xing Yue and her maid appeared out of nowhere. The maid quickly took off the little maid's clothes and put them on herself, and walked towards the Plum Blossom Pavilion.
"Come on, they should be here soon." Su Ruojin pulled Xing Yue and hid behind a nearby artificial hill.
To avoid being discovered, Su Ruojin picked up a few stones and leaves and quickly set up an invisibility array.
Once everything was in place, all that was left was to wait for the fish to bite.
