Chapter 220 His Majesty personally said that it would only be given to one person

"Concubine Du, Qingwu is right. You cannot criticize the Queen Mother. If anyone in the palace hears this, Prince Yong will also be blamed. Do you know your mistake?"

Tao Wanyin's aura changed all of a sudden.

After all, she is the eldest daughter raised in a wealthy family.

She was born into a prominent family and was well-read. Sitting in the main seat, her noble and cold temperament was incomparable to that of ordinary girls.

Du Yufang was a quick-witted person. She sensed that the atmosphere was different. She stood up with the help of the maid next to her, and then slowly sat down on the ground.

"It's all my fault that I made the princess unhappy. No matter how wrong I am, it's all my fault."

Ji Qingwu looked at Du Yufang with interest as he looked so weak and unable to get up from the ground.

This play is more interesting if you watch others perform it.

At this time, Du Yufang lowered her head and wondered in her heart, according to the past, the princess should have hurriedly asked her to get up, but today, why hasn't she done anything yet?

The maid beside her advised: "Princess, the concubine is still pregnant. The ground is so cold. If you kneel for too long, something bad will happen. If the prince knows, he will be very angry."

Tao Wanyin showed some hesitation. If something bad happened while kneeling, she would not be able to explain to Prince Yong.

Ji Qingwu chuckled and said, "With me here, the baby in the concubine's belly will be fine. It's just kneeling, it's no big deal."

After hearing her words, Tao Wanyin sat more steadily.

"Concubine Du, what are you doing? No one asked you to kneel down."

Du Yufang tilted her head and glared at Ji Qingwu, questioning, "Why is Miss Ji also involved in the family affairs of Prince Yong's Mansion?"

Ji Qingwu blinked his eyes and said in confusion: "Huh? Just now, the concubine dared to say that she and the queen mother are a family. Unfortunately, I am also a member of the Ji family, and I am also a family with the queen mother. For the time being, this is also my family affair."

Du Yufang caught her mistake and her eyes changed.

"Just now the princess rebuked me for making irresponsible remarks about the Queen Mother, but Miss Ji also spoke outrageously and even dared to say that she and the Queen Mother were from the same family."

"In this world, only the Emperor and the Queen Mother are one family."

Tao Wanyin interrupted, "Alright, let's just stick to the facts and not go off topic."

Familiar footsteps were heard outside the door.

Du Yufang's eyes suddenly turned red. She fell to the ground and cried, "The princess is unfair. I am wronged."

When Prince Yong hurried in, everyone was stunned when they saw him.

Du Yufang asked with tears in her eyes: "My Lord, what's wrong with your face?"

Prince Yong, whose face was bruised and swollen, looked at Tao Wanyin who was sitting in the hall as soon as he entered the room, but after waiting for a long time, he did not hear a word of concern.

He turned to the crying Du Yufang and said, "What are you doing? What does it look like?"

The maid quickly narrated the whole story with exaggeration.

Tao Wanyin is described as a confused master who cannot distinguish right from wrong, and Ji Qingwu is described as a vicious and delicate lady, who team up to oppress their weak and pitiful concubines.

After listening, Prince Yong said nothing and sat next to Tao Wanyin with a sullen face.

He asked, "Who do you think is a family member of this prince?"

Tao Wanyin's momentum suddenly weakened, and she lowered her head and remained silent.

But I already have the answer in my heart.

When her eldest son Yunxuan was just born, she saw Prince Yong holding Yunxuan from afar. He and his concubine and mother looked more like a family.

She and he were very far apart.

Ji Qingwu leaned his head on his hand and thought for a while.

Suddenly he raised his voice and said, "The prince and I are one family."

Prince Yong immediately turned his head to look at Ji Qingwu, and his movement was so fast that he almost sprained his neck.

He felt uneasy and clarified: "Fifth cousin, please don't say that casually. I have nothing to do with you."

If these words were to reach the ears of Emperor Wu Su from the palace, who knows what terrible consequences would result.

Ji Qingwu continued: "I didn't say that casually."

"A few days ago in the Cining Palace, His Majesty said in person that he, the Queen Mother, and I are all one family."

So this is what it means.

Only then did Prince Yong pat his chest and relax.

Not only was he afraid that his brother would get angry and punish him, he was also afraid that Wei Ting would get angry and beat him up again.

Ji Qingwu asked: "My family has a reason and evidence, what is the basis for the concubine?"

The emperor actually said such words to Ji Wu. The corners of Du Yufang's lips twitched. She wisely did not argue about this, but talked about other things instead.

She said with tears in her eyes: "Your Majesty, I just said something wrong. If you want to accuse me, you can always find a pretext. I just said that Longjing tea is precious, and Miss Ji threw the tea at me."

Then he dragged Tao Wanyin in as well: "Sister Princess has always been kind-hearted, and she was the one who instigated you to punish me."

As soon as she finished speaking, she covered her lower abdomen, screamed in pain, and fell to one side, and was supported by the maid.

Ji Qingwu raised an eyebrow at Tao Wanyin.

Tao Wanyin hesitated a little, touched her belly very awkwardly, and frowned.

A large hand with a bruise on the back held her arm.

Prince Yong asked impatiently, "What's wrong with you?"

Concubine Du, who fell to the ground and gasped in pain, raised her voice a little louder. Prince Yong raised his hand and said, "Help your concubine back."

Du Yufang's usual trick failed, and she said softly: "My lord, I am scared. I don't know if the baby in my belly will be okay. Please go back with me."

Prince Yong urged, "If you are afraid, please ask a doctor to see a doctor. Do you want me to be afraid with you?"

Several eunuchs appeared, carried Du Yufang up, and escorted him out of Jinmoju.

Tao Wanyin's arm was pinched so hard by Prince Yong's hand that it hurt, and her brows furrowed even more tightly.

Prince Yong stood up and stood in front of her, and said anxiously: "Fifth cousin, come over and see what's going on with her!"

Ji Qingwu took out the black pill from the brocade bag and said, "Princess, eat this pregnancy-preserving pill and you will be fine."

Tao Wanyin had nothing to do, so she took it and slowly held the meatball in her hand.

But it was snatched away by Prince Yong.

After asking how to take it, he took out two pills and stuffed them into Princess Yong's mouth, and then gave her half a cup of water.

He said fiercely: "Swallow it!"

The rough action caused Tao Wanyin to choke and cough continuously. If you didn't know, you would think they were trying to force poison into her.

Zhao Minghong was so anxious that sweat was all over his head. He finally calmed down now.

He turned around and looked at Ji Qingwu, saying unhappily, "You've been here for so long, and she still hasn't taken the pregnancy-preserving pills."

"If you want to blame someone, you have to blame Concubine Du. She insisted on staying here with the princess and refused to leave." Ji Qingwu spread his hands.

Zhao Minghong said: "The concubine is here, so it won't delay her taking medicine."

Ji Qingwu said in a serious tone: "What if she takes a fancy to the pregnancy-preserving pills in my hand and insists on having a few, should I give them to her?"

"I can't compare to the prince in being philanthropic and generous. Since these meatballs are specially made for the princess, I will only give them to her and no one else, not even one."

Zhao Minghong choked and could not utter a word to refute.

He felt as if he had been slapped in the face by his fifth cousin, and his face hurt even more.

Tao Wanyin stopped coughing and a red glow appeared on her face.

He saw his princess looking at Ji Qingwu shyly.

Zhao Minghong was stunned.

This look was both familiar and unfamiliar to him.

Only in dreams could he see her looking at him with such affectionate eyes.
