At this time, Chunxiang had been brought to the Fourth Master by Su Peisheng.
"Before Li Gege had the bird's nest porridge, she was the only one who stayed alone in the small kitchen in Li Gege's courtyard. Several servants said they saw her in there for quite a while."
"Master, I am innocent. I did nothing. Please let me see clearly." Chunxiang was so scared that she knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
The Fourth Master sat at the head of the table with a majestic look, twirling the jade ring on his left hand with his right hand. His face was gloomy and expressionless, making those kneeling below feel fear invisibly.
"Tell me, who ordered you to put safflower in Li's porridge?"
The Fourth Master's voice was extremely cold, like the bitter cold of December, making people shiver.
"I...I didn't, I really didn't." Chunxiang was extremely scared and kept shaking her head, refusing to admit it.
"Su Peisheng, bring her family to me. If she doesn't tell me, make her stand in front of her family and watch them being beaten until she tells you the truth." The Fourth Master ordered in a cold voice.
"Yes, I will bring her family in right away."
"No, no, Master, these have nothing to do with my family. Please let them go." Chunxiang was really scared at this time.
She can die, but she cannot drag her family down with her.
"Tell me, I'll give you one last chance."
The Fourth Master has no patience at all now and doesn't want to waste too much time here with a servant.
"I admit that I did it. I only hope that Master will not implicate my family. I also hope that Master will spare their lives after I tell the truth."
Having said this, Chunxiang kowtowed to the Fourth Master.
Then he said, "I didn't want to do this at first. It was... it was Fu Jin who threatened me with the lives of my family members. I had no choice but to do this."
After hearing this, the Fourth Master's pupils suddenly trembled, and he was shocked and looked at Chunxiang in disbelief.
Su Peisheng was also surprised. He didn't expect it to be Fu Jin.
"Please, Master, spare the lives of my family."
After saying that, Chunxiang stood up without waiting for the Fourth Master to ask any more questions and slammed hard into the corner of the table beside her.
A large bloody hole instantly appeared on his forehead, and Su Peisheng couldn't stop it even if he wanted to.
Squatting down to check, Su Peisheng nodded to the Fourth Master Yaoyao, "Master, the person is dead."
The Fourth Master frowned, "Take that person away. Don't let this matter spread outside. Also, investigate this Chunxiang privately and find out who she had contact with before."
"And the servants in the backyard are still restless. Give them a good beating to prevent such things from happening again next time."
"Remember this is the last time. If your ability to handle affairs is still so poor, don't serve me anymore."
"Yes, I will arrange it later." Su Peisheng felt bitter in his heart, and secretly cursed these damn servants for being so restless.
It seems that what happened a few years ago was not unforgettable enough, which led to them still having those bad intentions.
It's time to give him another good beating. He doesn't want to lose this job.
After the Fourth Master left, Su Peisheng couldn't help but wonder in his heart, could it be that what Chunxiang said was false?
I couldn't figure it out, so I just stopped thinking about it and asked someone to come in and take the person away.
Then he took his men and Liu Zhengde to clean out all the restless servants in the backyard.
This time, there was a major reshuffle in the backyard. Li Gege and Fu Jin found a few restless people and beat them with fifty boards as if they were the slaves of the entire courtyard.
Then they were all sent to a remote village.
He also said that if anyone dared to help any master and frame other masters again in the future, he would be investigated without asking the reason.
Neither you nor your family will have a good time.
Take Chunxiang for example, although she is dead.
But his family didn't have it so easy.
They were all driven out of the capital by the Fourth Master, and even their money was stolen by robbers on the road.
In the end, she became a street beggar, and everyone in her family hated Chunxiang to death.
If it weren't for her, they wouldn't be like this.
Of course, these are things that happened later...
——
Back to the day after Fu Jin gave birth.
Fu Jin has woken up, and Nanny Chang and Nanny Li did not say that Fu Jin had suffered any serious injuries during childbirth.
After all, Fu Jin had just woken up, and they didn't dare to tell her now.
The imperial physician said that Fu Jin must take good care of herself, otherwise her health will get worse and worse.
"Fujin, you're awake."
Nanny Chang came over with the medicine and placed it on the small table beside the bed.
"Where's the eldest prince? Bring him over to me and let me see him." Fu Jin said weakly.
But you can still hear the happiness in his tone.
Before she fell into coma, she only took one look at the eldest prince and then fainted.
"The eldest prince is drinking milk. When he finishes, I will ask the wet nurse to bring him to Fu Jin."
Nanny Chang carefully helped Fu Jin up and placed a soft pillow behind her.
"This is the medicine prescribed by the imperial physician. Please drink it while it's hot, Fujin."
Nanny Chang carefully picked up the medicine bowl and fed it to Fu Jin carefully.
While drinking the medicine, Fu Jin asked, "By the way, how is Li's situation?"
She had just thought of this. If she had not gone to Mrs. Li, she would not have given birth prematurely.
Thinking of this, Fu Jin felt a little annoyed.
"I heard the child is gone, and it's a boy."
"Hahaha, Li has finally met her end." Fu Jin was extremely happy when she heard the news.
Fortunately, she didn't give birth to the child, but she did it herself.
Although Nanny Chang was happy that Li's child was gone.
But Fujin...
After feeding the concubine the medicine, Nanny Li went to bring the eldest prince over.
When Fu Jin saw the child, her expression softened a lot, and her eyes were looking at the little boy in the cradle held by Nanny Li.
"By the way, why is his body all purple?" Only then did Fu Jin notice that something was wrong with the eldest prince.
"Fujin, all children are like this. You just need to take care of them in the future." Fujin noticed that there was something wrong when Nanny Li spoke.
"Impossible. I've seen newborn babies of my third sister-in-law before, and they were all white and tender. At most, they had a little red on their bodies."
Seeing them hesitating, Fu Jin knew that they were hiding something from her.
"Tell me, what's going on?" Fu Jin said sternly.
Seeing Fu Jin like this, Nanny Li finally told Fu Jin that the little prince was born with a weak constitution.
However, the fact that Fu Jin was injured and would not be able to have children in the future was not mentioned. If this had been mentioned, Fu Jin would definitely not be able to bear it.
I am in confinement now. If I don’t take good care of my body, I will never be able to take good care of it in the future.
After hearing this, Fu Jin almost fainted. She had finally given birth to a prince.
But why, why...
"Fujin~"
Nanny Chang quickly supported Fu Jin.
