Pei Feng glared angrily and thrust his long sword straight at Gu Yurong's lower abdomen.
He showed no mercy.
Song Tingyue lost the child in her womb, so he wanted Gu Yurong to repay him with her unborn child.
Gu Yurong screamed and dodged, avoiding a fatal blow, but her waist was pierced by a sharp sword.
She let out a painful wail, her clothes soaked with blood.
"Your Highness! Don't go too far!"
Song Ziyu was shocked and his face turned furious.
He stepped forward to help Gu Yurong up, and seeing her serious injuries, he glared angrily and said, "The matter is not yet clear. Rong'er could not possibly have hurt her sister. The First Prince has acted rashly and injured people. Does he even respect my General's Mansion?"
"Not her? Then tell me, who else was in the room besides her at the time!"
Pei Feng was furious.
"Could it be that An Yang fell down on his own?"
Gu Yurong collapsed to the side, the sharp pain turning her face pale, but also bringing back some of her sanity.
She shook her heavy head.
Yes, she remembered.
Jiang Wan is lying!
She said she was going to see a play, but when she and Song Tingyue entered the room, Jiang Wan was clearly lying in bed, fast asleep.
Aru's rouge contains borneol, and when inhaled, the styrax in the burning incense will cause mental confusion and hallucinations.
Song Tingyue's plan was to take advantage of Jiang Wan's mental instability and lure her to the second-floor railing.
The fireworks were in full swing, and people crowded on the first floor.
She wanted to create the illusion that Jiang Wan had pushed her off the building, witnessed by countless eyes.
Therefore, she specially made a set of clothes exactly like Jiang Wan's and arranged for a maid with a similar figure to wear it.
Even if Jiang Wan is out of control, she can have her maid take her place and complete this scene.
After all, there was a layer between them, and the people below couldn't see the maid's face clearly. They would mistake her for Jiang Wan just by looking at her clothes.
This is the only way to ensure that nothing goes wrong.
Fortunately, Song Tingyue had a backup plan.
Jiang Wan was fast asleep and Song Tingyue couldn't wake her up, so she decided to have a maid impersonate her.
Just as the group turned and walked out of the room, the last maid suddenly screamed.
later…
Gu Yurong frowned.
She couldn't remember what happened after that.
There was something strange about that room; after a short while inside, she felt dizzy and eventually lost consciousness.
She had no recollection of what happened afterward.
However, there must be something wrong with Jiang Wan.
She was clearly asleep in bed at the time, so how did she end up on stage again?
Does she have the ability to create clones?
"The imperial physician is here! The imperial physician is here!"
Suddenly someone shouted.
The imperial physician, carrying his medicine chest, rushed over and, after examining Song Tingyue's condition, came to the same conclusion as the folk doctor.
"Besides the miscarriage, the princess's leg injuries are also very serious, and may leave lasting effects, affecting her mobility in the future..."
He may very well become a cripple.
Upon hearing this devastating news, Zhou embraced Song Tingyue and wept bitterly.
The imperial physician administered acupuncture, which awakened Song Tingyue.
Seeing Gu Yurong covered in blood, she quickly realized the situation before her, took a few weak breaths, and said to Pei Feng.
"Your Highness, please don't be angry... It has nothing to do with Madam Gu."
Pei Feng said urgently, "Who harmed you? Just tell me, and I will make that person pay with their blood!"
Song Tingyue glanced around, then said meaningfully, "A-Wan was unconscious in the room at the time. I went over..."
Jiang Wan said, "Princess, you're mistaken. I left a long time ago."
Gu Yurong wanted to refute.
However, her memory is fragmented, and she cannot make sense of the situation at the time. Even if she speaks, it may not be believable.
If only there had been other people there...
As soon as this thought came to mind, someone next to him said, "Ah Xi, didn't you go with Sister An Yang? What did you see?"
The speaker was Pei Jin.
His voice was soft, with his usual timidity.
Gu Yurong's eyes lit up.
Pei Xi and Song Tingyue have a close relationship, so he will definitely stand on their side.
Song Tingyue forced herself to stand up and looked at Pei Xi with eager eyes: "If the Third Prince were here, he would definitely... definitely have seen it. Awan was lying on the bed at that time."
"I…"
Pei Xi glanced at Song Tingyue, then frowned and looked at Jiang Wan.
His expression was very conflicted, as if he had thought of something.
Pei Feng said impatiently, "A-Xi, what are you hesitating about? Tell me."
"Was Jiang Wan in the room at the time? She's the one who harmed An Yang, isn't she!"
Jiang Wan secretly glanced at Pei Xi, her fingers clenching slightly inside her sleeve.
Pei Xi's appearance was unexpected.
If he says something that is detrimental to himself...
Pei Xi suddenly turned her head away and impatiently shouted, "That room is too dark, what can you see? I didn't see anything!"
Song Tingyue: "How could this be..."
Pei Jin also glanced at Pei Xi suspiciously, and then said nothing more.
Pei Feng, however, would not give up so easily.
His anger surged, his gaze swept over Gu Yurong, and then fixed intently on Jiang Wan.
"Someone must have attacked Anyang. There were only three of you in the room. It was either you or her!"
Pei Feng raised his sword and slowly pointed it at Jiang Wan's legs.
"If Anyang gets hurt, you won't have an easy time either."
Jiang Wan sneered inwardly.
Song Tingyue's legs were on the verge of being ruined, and Pei Feng was going to use his own legs to atone for his mistake.
Pei Xi saw the madness in Pei Feng's eyes and exclaimed in alarm, "Brother, you, you mustn't act rashly!"
Pei Jin shrank back and hid to the side, not daring to speak.
Ji Huaichuan, who was standing to the side, was also terrified.
Pei Feng was enraged and clearly wanted to vent his anger on someone.
Fortunately, Jiang Wan's husband's family is a general's mansion, with official ranks and titles, so the Song family has the ability to protect her.
