The teacup in Su Chengang's hand suddenly fell to the ground, and he didn't even care that the tea splashed on his robe.
"What did you say? Didn't they say that one body and two lives were to be put into the coffin?"
"I don't know either. When I went to deliver the coffin, Madam Li said she would wait for the coffin to be placed in the casket and asked me to wait outside for the coffin to be carried. When I went in again, it was Madam Bai who called people in. She was standing at the door of the delivery room and said~"
"say what?"
"She asked me to find a good nanmu coffin for the young master. I can't do this, so I came to ask the marquis for advice."
Su Chen was silent after hearing this. It was quite surprising that Bai Shi didn't die. He had already instructed the midwife to save the baby, so how could she be alive again? She was really lucky. Of course, he didn't doubt that the two midwives dared to go against his wishes. He could only say that Bai Shi was extremely lucky. She was so lucky that she could come back to life even though she was clearly dying.
But the child was his first in many years, and a son, after all. Such a dead baby could not be buried in the ancestral tomb.
"No need, I'll go there myself!"
This time he didn't have time to greet Rong in the inner room, and hurriedly left with his people.
He felt a little regretful. He should have drugged her at the beginning. If he had used the medicine, such a mistake would not have happened. She would have been dead for sure.
Oh, that may not be the case. It’s not that the original owner came back to life, but that he has changed into a soul from another world.
In order to leave no evidence that could be discovered, he chose to let the midwife take action during childbirth so that she could die openly. As for the two midwives, he sent them away from this place and found a way to kill them after a while. A cold would be enough, and no one would be able to find any problems.
He was not afraid of what would happen to the Bai family. What he was afraid of was the emperor. Since he ascended the throne, he has always wanted to weaken the power of the nobles and the aristocratic families. Small things will not cause any trouble. If someone harms someone, especially the mistress, he will definitely be punished if found out by the emperor's people. He will not be sentenced to death, but he is afraid that his title will be stripped.
His plan failed. The person who was supposed to die didn't die, but his son died. The two midwives were more trouble than help, so they had to be dealt with directly to avoid any future trouble.
This is the price he paid for not handling it personally and still going about his business. The information was too different and not even on the same timeline.
Rong also heard it in the inner room, and the handkerchief in her hand was torn into several pieces.
"How could that bitch be alive again? How does Nanny Li work? Oh, and why didn't Nanny Li come to deliver the letter to me? Did she betray me?"
She can bribe the people around Bai, but there is no guarantee that Bai will not use a large sum of money to bribe her people. After all, she has a lot of money.
"Will the Marquis know that she killed the baby in Bai's belly and deliberately prevented her from giving birth?"
The Marquis did not like that woman, and killing her was what he wanted, but he attached great importance to offspring. After all, there were not many people like him who were still childless at his age.
My stomach started to ache from the tension.
"No, we can't just sit there and wait for death!"
"Madame Rong, go and find out what happened and where Madame Li went. Find her and kill her!"
"yes!"
Rong Mama was also anxious. This matter concerned the lady's important plan, so how could something go wrong? She followed the Marquis to the main courtyard.
When Su Chen arrived, Bai Zhiyue had already cleaned up and was sitting in the main room holding the baby, waiting.
For the convenience of calling him, she gave him a nickname Doudou. The child had suffered and was already in low spirits. After cleaning, she wanted the nanny to feed him, but the child said he didn't want to eat anything and kept pushing it away. Bai Zhiyue had no choice but to take some nutrient solution from the space and feed him two drops first, and then let him drink a few sips of water. By now, he was exhausted and fell asleep.
Such a tiny little person felt so soft in her arms. Bai Zhiyue was afraid that any movement would hurt the child, so she just sat there quietly holding her, not moving at all.
If the child was a burden to her before he died and she didn't want to be responsible for his life, her heart softened unconsciously after she held Doudou in her arms, even though she had been a killer for nearly thirty years.
The servants wanted to take the baby away but she refused, mainly because she didn't trust anyone here. No one could be trusted until she had finished cleaning up the mess.
"The child is already dead, why are you still holding him? Don't you think it's bad luck? Someone take the child away and bury him on a hill!"
Su Chen had just entered the room and hadn't figured out what was going on when someone took the package away and buried it. A servant came forward to tear the package apart.
Bai Zhiyue held the dagger and pierced the man's palm directly.
"Let's see who dares to move!"
"Ah, Lord~ She..."
"Since you're not dead, then stay put. You didn't show courtesy to me and even disobeyed my orders. Do you really want to die? Where's the midwife? Where are those maids and servants? How did they do it? Why did they make such a fool of themselves? Go arrest them. I'm going to take them away and interrogate them. Were they bribed to deliberately embarrass the Marquisate?"
He was anxious to take those people away and silence them, and did not want anyone to know his orders, so he did not take advantage of Bai Zhiyue's rude words.
"Qingyu, explain to the Marquis."
Bai Zhiyue asked Qingyu to come forward. She was too lazy to say more to Su Chengang.
"My Lord, the young master is not dead. Madam gave birth to him after waking up and breathing for him. He has recovered!"
Su Chen was stunned.
"Say it again!"
"My Lord, the young master is fine. He just drank some water and fell asleep!"
When Su Chen got closer, he saw that the little mouth was moving, as if it wanted to eat something. He thought that the baby was really pregnant. When he was about to reach out and touch it, Bai Zhiyue pointed her dagger at him and stabbed him, telling him that no one could touch the child.
Chang Ping Hou had learned some martial arts, so his reaction was quick enough to avoid being stabbed. It was also because Bai Zhiyue let him go, just to scare him, and didn't intend to hurt him right away. When he reacted, he became furious.
"You dare to hurt me, you bitch!"
"You can take my life, why shouldn't I dare to hurt you!"
He wanted to say that he was a marquis and wanted her to die, but looking at Bai Zhiyue's expression, he didn't say it in the end. He felt guilty.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Are you crazy?"
Turning around and asking the servants
"Since you have nothing to worry about, why don't you report it quickly?"
"We came in because Ma Liu called us. He had gone looking for you, thinking you would... come over."
Ma Liu is the servant. He is waiting for you in Rongyuan. It was he who ordered Wuzhao not to let these people enter the main courtyard. Who can he blame now?
The Marquis's face couldn't help but change. Even if he didn't ask questions in time, it would be wrong for these servants to let him get the information, and they should be punished.
The key point is that he asked the housekeeper to send the message out. He was afraid that someone would come or go to the farm tomorrow. Even if he didn't plan to do it, he still had to do some favors.
It was so embarrassing. Soon everyone was called to the front yard to be beaten.
"Quickly send someone to find the steward and tell him not to announce the death, but to report the good news, saying that the mother and child were holding their breath and pretended to be dead for a while, and now they have breathed their last and are fine. Go and announce the good news, the Marquis's family has a son."
