Chapter 411 I’ll Make Up to Shushu in My Next Life
"Don't worry, Grandfather. Nothing will happen to my aunt. The concubine's child should have been sent to the Cheng residence by now. My aunt will pretend to give birth to the child after dark, after all, it will be easier to take action after dark. Once I confirm my guess about my father's life experience, I will go and reunite with my aunt."
Jiang Youya was puzzled. "Isn't your father a child of the Gu family? What else is there to be unsure of?"
"There's a cliff." At this time, Madam Jiang said, "You're worried about Shushu's safety, how can you understand what Wanwan and her mother are talking about?"
Madam Jiang turned to the mother and daughter and said, "Just now you asked if Prince Rong was raised by the two of them. Do you think that Prince Rong might have been replaced by the Gu family, and the real Prince Rong is Ming En?"
"What?" Jiang Youya stood up in shock. "How can the royal bloodline be mixed with others? Don't let your imagination run wild. Gu Wanqing and his sister are from the same mother and have a deep bond. He absolutely cannot commit such a capital crime!"
Song Yu said, "They should look somewhat similar, and their ears are exactly the same. My father and Prince Rong also have the same ears. It's not impossible that the couple were away from the capital for a long time and their children were switched."
Jiang Youya said, "Impossible! They were playful but responsible parents. They raised their child until he turned eighteen and was granted the title of prince. He married and had children before they left the capital. They were gone for eighteen years. When they return and you meet them, you'll know. Prince Rong can't be Gu Wanqing's son."
Song Yu frowned and thought for a moment, "Then do you two elders meet them often? In other words, do you still remember what they look like?"
Jiang Youya said, "I remember what Xiao Yanxu looked like. When he was young, he often followed the emperor. He looked like the empress dowager, while the emperor looked more like the late emperor. Later, he married Gu Wanqing's sister and I haven't seen him since."
"What does the Concubine Dowager look like?"
Jiang Youya: "I met him once from a distance at the palace banquet when they were first married. At that time, the court was busy, and most of the people my grandfather met were colleagues."
Song Yu looked at Madam Jiang, "Where's Grandmother?"
Madam Jiang said, "I don't have much impression of the Concubine Dowager. I only know that she is a high-ranking noble lady from the Chaofeng Palace Academy. Even if I had met her, I wouldn't remember what she looked like."
Song Yu continued to ask, "Did they never leave the capital while raising their child?"
Jiang Youya thought for a moment, "They've been in the capital the whole time. Xiao Yanxu loved to play back then and couldn't stay in the palace. It was only after he got married that the Emperor told me he'd changed his mind. Not only can he stay in the palace, but the Emperor even went to the palace to see him in person. They wouldn't lose the child."
Jiang Yunwan: "Sister Yu, you can give up now. Your father can't be their son. Don't mention this matter again. If someone with ulterior motives hears about it, it will bring about a fatal disaster."
Song Yu still refused to give up. "Grandpa and Grandma, please think carefully. Have you missed something? This is a big deal. In my dream, I foresaw that the new emperor was Prince Xiao. If Prince Rong is of Gu family blood, then the Dayuan Kingdom would have been stolen by the Gu family without anyone knowing."
Jiang Youya's expression changed and he stared at Song Yu for a few moments.
If everything happened as predicted in the dream, the little prince would not live for many years, and the throne would naturally fall to Prince Xiao.
Fortunately, Sister Yu relied on her predictive dream to help Ming'en escape the disaster and come to the capital alive.
Ming En looked and exuded an extraordinary aura, without any of the money-minded air of the Gu family. Now that I think about it, he seemed to have a bit of a kingly aura.
"Sister Yu, what we're saying is the truth. Since Prince Rong might be a fake, Grandfather will naturally pay close attention and find out what happened in Prince Rong's mansion more than 30 years ago. It's getting dark soon, and the Cheng family will start replacing their children."
"Well, I'll go meet up with my aunt now."
Song Yu pulled Jiang Yunwan back to Hibiscus Garden and said, "Mother, I don't know when I'll be back tonight. You can't hide the fact that Daddy is back. You have to tell him right away."
Jiang Yunshu nodded, "We're not sure if Prince Rong is fake or not. They should have received the letters I sent to them by now. We'll proceed with our plans for tomorrow as usual."
"good!"
Song Yu settled Jiang Yunwan down and left with Bai Lan and Chunhua.
I ran into Wen Shu and Wen Nuo in the yard.
The two of them were wearing identical black gold ingot masks on their faces.
"Cousin, I want to see my mother tonight. I haven't seen her for a long time."
"Let's go. Tonight is the time to show off. There's no need to hide anymore."
Taoguangyuan of Cheng Mansion.
"My Lord, what do you think?"
Cheng Xiao thought carefully about Chuntang's words.
Jiang Yunshu died of premature birth and heavy bleeding, and the Jiang family will blame him.
It was an accident, something he had no control over.
He and Shushu have a good relationship with each other, so his father-in-law can't blame him too much.
Besides, Shushu’s health has never been good, and the Jiang family knows that she has been recuperating over the years.
"Go back and tell your wife to wait for good news."
Chuntang was delighted, she knew that the Marquis truly loved her wife.
"Okay, my lord. I'll take my leave now."
"Aunt Meidai." Another maid came hurriedly from the small kitchen, carrying tea and snacks. She was clearly panting and whispered quickly, "The Marquis returned to Taoguang Courtyard and met a maid. I couldn't see her face clearly, and I don't understand what she said. She left Taoguang Courtyard and headed towards the old lady's courtyard. She was walking very fast."
"Yeah, I get it. Put the pastries aside."
As soon as the maid put down the cakes, Li Xiao pushed Cheng Xiao into the yard.
Mei Dai hurried forward to report the news. "My Lord, the Madam is about to give birth. She is already seven fingers dilated."
Cheng Xiao said, "Madam must be hungry. Hurry up and bring in some food."
"Don't worry, my Lord. I've already taken it. Madam told you not to worry. She said she would definitely give birth to the baby safely. She told you not to wait and to lie down in the room. She was worried that sitting for too long would harm your health."
Hearing this, Cheng Xiao was a little moved. When Shushu was suffering the most, she was still worried about his health.
Why is she so stupid?
He doesn't love her and she is not in his heart at all.
Cheng Xiao let Li Xiao push him into the main house and stopped at the door of the inner room. He gently pushed the door open, and a faint smell of blood hit his nose.
It was rare that Cheng Xiao didn't show any disgust.
Looking at Jiang Yunshu lying pale and powerless on the bed, he felt a little reluctant.
Shushu's heart and eyes are full of him.
But he couldn't let A Yuan down again.
In the next life, he will make it up to Shushu!
Cheng Xiao lowered her eyes and suppressed the emotions in her eyes, "Ah Xiao, I won't go in and bother Shushu anymore. Push me out."
Jiang Yunshu slowly opened his eyes and looked at the door.
Nanny Yuan quickly closed the door.
"Madam, the Marquis is out. When will he open his eight fingers?"
"Rest for another quarter of an hour. Acting is tiring!"
Cheng Xiao went into the next room and called Meng Guangde in.
Cheng Xiao whispered something, and Meng Guangde's eyes widened unconsciously. "My Lord, please think twice. This is a serious matter. I need to report it to the old lady."
"No need to tell the old lady, she will agree. Go and make the arrangements."
"This..." Meng Guangde hesitated. He didn't dare to do it without the old lady's permission.
"What? I can't order you around anymore?" Cheng Xiao said angrily in a low voice, "Don't forget who your master is!"
Seeing Cheng Xiao's changed expression, Meng Guangde knew that if the Marquis became stubborn, the old lady would have to compromise.
"Okay, my lord. I'll make the arrangements right away."
"Remember, she doesn't need to wake up again after she falls asleep!"
"clear!"
Meng Guangde left the wing room and sat in the yard for a while. Seeing that everyone's attention was on the main house, he stood up and left Fangfei Garden.
Half an incense stick later, when Meng Guangde returned to Fangfei Courtyard, Jiang Yunshu had already opened eight fingers.
"Mei Dai, come with me to the small kitchen. Madam is about to give birth. After the baby is born, she must drink a bowl of soup to nourish the qi and blood. This will save her from suffering during the confinement period."
"Okay, Doctor Meng." Meidai asked someone to guard the door. She glanced at Xiaoju who was lip-syncing to her in the distance before following Meng Guangde into the small kitchen.
Meng Guangde poured a bag of herbs into the medicine pot in front of her, "Mei Dai, add water every quarter of an hour."
Meidai picked up the chopsticks and stirred the herbs. She sniffed them carefully and found that there was nothing wrong with the herbs in the pot.
These are all good herbs for replenishing qi and blood, so it’s impossible for the lady to bleed profusely, right?
Did Xiaoju see it wrong?
Meidai closed the lid and saw Meng Guangde rummaging in the kitchen.
Meidai frowned, "What are you looking for?"
"You also need to put candied fruit in it when you cook it. I thought the kitchen would have it, but it doesn't."
"Oh, there's some in the madam's room. I'll have someone get it."
Meidai turned and left the small kitchen, and Meng Guangde quickly poured the small bag of medicine powder in his arms into the medicine furnace.
A moment later, Mei Dai came in with a plate of candied fruit. "We have the candied fruit. How much should we put in it?"
Meng Guangde took it and said, "I'll put it on."
As soon as the lid was opened, a very faint strange smell came to my nose, but the strange smell disappeared instantly after the candied fruit was put in.
Meidai raised her hand and subconsciously touched the kitchen knife on the chopping board.
If she hadn't identified the medicinal herbs with Doctor Bai, she wouldn't have noticed anything unusual about the strange smell just now.
This is to let her personally make a pot of medicine to send her wife off!
hateful!
"Mei Dai, come and watch the fire. Madam, I need to be on standby at all times."
"Bang!"
Meng Guangde was guilty and startled when he heard the sound. He looked up and saw Mei Dai holding a knife and handing him half of the melon. She said with a smile, "Doctor Meng, you have worked hard. Fill your stomach."
"No, my wife is still suffering, how can I eat as much as I want?"
After saying this, Meng Guangde hurriedly left the kitchen.
Mei Dai asked Xiao Ju to come in and keep an eye on it. "It's ready. Put it aside. Someone may need it!"
Mei Dai carried a fruit platter into the inner room of the main house. "Madam, the Marquis returned to Taoguang Courtyard. Upon his return, he met Meng Guangde in the next room. Meng Guangde returned to his own courtyard and prepared a prescription to treat postpartum hemorrhage in pregnant women. The prescription is already being boiled. I feel that the medicine cannot be boiled in vain; someone must drink it."
There was a cold look in Jiang Yunshu's eyes. Cheng Xiao actually wanted her life!
"You can spread the word now. Bring the mistress to me. Cheng Xiao will feed her tonight!"
Yanzhi quickly comforted her, "Madam, please don't be angry. Don't hurt our young master. Let's not delay for too long. Open the nine fingers now."
"good!"
"ah--"
A deafening scream echoed through the main house.
"Madam," Nanny Niu hurried in. "Madam is nine fingers dilated and about to give birth. Should we hurry over?"
Madam Cheng glanced at her precious grandson again, "Are you sure he won't wake up halfway?"
"Don't worry, old lady, the young master won't wake up halfway."
"Okay, take everything and go over there now."
