Chapter 312 Slap Her
"What happened?" Zhan Qingheng's face darkened and he strode outside. That was his first child and he would never allow any accidents to happen.
"The princess gave the concubine some pills and skin care cream in the afternoon. The concubine used some skin care cream at night, and just now she suddenly had a stomachache." Xianglian said quickly.
Zhan Qingheng's forehead was bulging with veins, and he shouted angrily: "Call the princess to Haitang Courtyard!"
In the Begonia Courtyard.
Pang Jingyi curled up in pain. Liu Yun was feeling her pulse, then she took out a silver needle and injected it into her abdomen. Gradually, Pang Jingyi relaxed.
"Jingyi." Zhan Qingheng rushed into the inner room and shouted anxiously.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. The concubine is fine." Liu Yun stood up and said to Zhan Qingheng.
"Really?" Zhan Qingheng felt relieved. He still felt at ease with Liu Yun. After all, she had helped him get rid of the insect.
Liu Yun smiled and said, "I won't lie to you, Your Majesty. Being a concubine is not a big deal."
Zhan Qingheng looked at Xianglian, "Where are the things used by the concubine?"
Xianglian immediately walked over holding a wooden box, "Prince, these were sent by the princess this afternoon. She said she bought them at Qianji Pavilion. The one on the left is used by the concubine."
Zhan Qingheng narrowed his eyes slightly.
Did you buy it at Qianji Pavilion?
Liu Yun walked forward quickly and checked the pills in another package first. It had a strong smell and was a top-quality pill for replenishing qi and blood.
After a careful sniff, there is no problem.
Next, she picked up the bottle of skin cream and examined it, something she couldn't do.
She knew about Qianji Pavilion.
There are indeed a lot of good things, but I didn’t expect them to be Jiang Nanjiao’s.
When Jiang Zhiyan came in, she saw Zhan Qingheng was furious. She quickly stepped forward and asked, "Prince, how is Sister Jingyi?"
Zhan Qingheng suddenly slapped her.
Snap——
A loud voice rang out.
Jiang Zhiyan was hit and staggered. If Banxia hadn't supported her, she would have fallen to the ground.
"What did you use on the concubine?"
Jiang Zhiyan looked at Zhan Qingheng with red eyes, "My Lord, the things I gave her were bought from Qianji Pavilion. Do you think I tampered with them?"
He actually hit her!
For another woman!
And this was before the matter was fully investigated. It turned out that in his heart, she was no longer that important.
This slap broke her heart.
"The things in Qianji Pavilion have always been guaranteed. No customer has ever said there was a problem." Zhan Qingheng said coldly, even though he disliked Jiang Nanjiao.
But Qianji Pavilion's reputation remains.
He didn't believe they would tamper with the ointment.
"Your Highness, do you not trust me? You have repeatedly told me to take good care of Sister Jingyi and the baby in her belly.
Would I be so stupid as to poison the ointment I gave her?" Jiang Zhiyan said with a sad and aggrieved look.
Zhan Qingheng listened to her words and gradually calmed down.
What she said seemed to make sense.
She has always been smart, and both he and the Queen Mother have warned her not to do anything to the baby in Jingyi's belly at this time.
"I was impulsive. I was too anxious and lost my mind." Zhan Qingheng walked up to her and looked at her red and swollen face, feeling guilty.
Jiang Zhiyan burst into tears and said firmly: "I can swear to heaven that I have never harmed the concubine."
Zhan Qingheng felt a little upset. Why was he so impulsive just now? He actually believed Qianji Pavilion and not her.
Liu Yun covered the ointment and said, "Your Highness, the skin care ointment and pills are fine. The pain in the abdomen of the concubine is probably caused by something she ate."
After hearing this, Zhan Qingheng looked at Jiang Zhiyan with even more guilt, "I won't do this again next time."
"I understand your feelings, Your Highness. It is right for you to worry about Sister Jingyi. As long as she is fine, I will not bother her any more."
After Jiang Zhiyan finished speaking, she bowed, turned around and left quickly.
After leaving Haitang Courtyard, her eyes were filled with hatred.
After returning to Fanghuayuan, Banxia immediately helped her treat the redness and swelling on her face. A moment later, Liu Yun came.
Jiang Zhiyan asked Banxia to go out.
Suddenly, they were the only two people in the room.
"This bottle of ointment is very effective in reducing redness and swelling. You can try it." Liu Yun took out a bottle of ointment and handed it to her.
"Thank you, Miss Liu." Jiang Zhiyan reached out to take it.
"After what happened just now, I guess the prince must feel very guilty towards the princess."
Jiang Zhiyan opened the ointment, took some and gently rubbed it on her face, and said with a smile: "I have to thank Miss Liu for her cooperation."
"I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation." Liu Yun said meaningfully.
"Yes, after all, we have a common enemy." A vicious light flashed in Jiang Zhiyan's eyes as she looked at her face in the mirror.
She felt an unprecedented hatred in her heart.
She used to think Zhan Qingheng was her support, but the slap just now made her sober up completely. It turns out that no one can be relied on and she can only rely on herself.
They all looked down on her, so she had to fight for her dignity.
…
Zhan Beiheng strode into Yuqing Courtyard and saw Nan Jiao sharpening her sword on a stone platform under a tree. The sword was extremely cold and sharp.
He walked over quickly and asked, "Has he been assassinated again tonight?"
When he first entered the city, he saw people running around in panic. Then he met Jiang Huai and his friends. After learning what had happened, he helped to evacuate the people.
He returned to the palace only after the streets returned to normal.
Nan Jiao put down the sword and looked at him with a smile, "I guess the person who wants to kill me has already sneaked into the capital."
Zhan Beiheng held her hand and said, "I have arranged more city guards to strengthen patrols. If something happens, they can take action immediately."
Nan Jiao nodded. This was indeed the right thing to do to ensure the safety of the people. "Why are you so busy that you come back so late?"
"There are a lot of things piling up. Let's deal with them all today. I can stay with you at home tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." Zhan Beiheng held her in his arms.
"Okay." Nan Jiao reached out and hugged her back.
The next day.
Zhan Beiheng was summoned to the palace early in the morning, and she had breakfast with the children in the yard.
"Princess, Miss Xue is here." Ruyi walked into the dining room to report.
Nan Jiao was a little surprised. Xue Miaoyin had lived in the palace these days but had never come to her place. Why did she come today?
When she went out.
Xue Miaoyin stood at the gate of the courtyard, with her maid beside her.
"Have you had breakfast?" Nan Jiao looked at her and asked.
"Thank you for your concern, cousin. I have already had breakfast and came here to say goodbye to you. I am moving back to the Xue family today." Xue Miaoyin said with a gentle smile.
"Has the Xue family's yard been repaired?" Nan Jiao didn't expect that she came to say goodbye.
Xue Miaoyin nodded, "I'm sorry to bother you during this time."
Nan Jiao smiled and said, "It's no problem."
She was a little surprised that she would move away suddenly. She thought she would continue to stay in the palace and celebrate the New Year with them. After all, she liked Zhan Beiheng.
But she was not like other women who tried to sow discord.
"I finally understand why my cousin only likes you. In fact, I have always liked him, but I have let it go from today." Xue Miaoyin said calmly.
