Chapter 355: Anti-Water
At this point, Lijuan has nothing to hide.
Since she wanted to ask Mrs. Shizi for help, she told the truth of the matter in one go.
"At the beginning, the slave wanted to dispose of this child unconsciously, but it was always the flesh on her own body, and she never succeeded in making this ruthless move. Later, I accidentally heard that Mama Li was looking for someone to go to the palace to do errands, and if there was no accident, she would not return to the palace. β
Her courage at that time directly entered the eyes of Mama Li and Empress Dowager Wu, and as soon as the two of them combined, for the sake of her acceptable appearance, and she was also a fresh face in Fengning Palace, she gladly agreed.
Although she heard that this errand was to get close to the prince of Jingyuan, it made her feel dangerous, and her heart couldn't help but sink, but the belief in survival was greater than a qiΔ, not to mention that there was no turning back arrow when she opened the bow, and in front of the queen mother, she could not be allowed to regret it.
"Later, there were slaves and maids asking for help on the side of the road, and desperately trying not to leave."
Lijuan said this, and hurriedly explained: "Since the slave maid lived in this house, she has never pestered the prince for half a minute, and she has not even met once!" And it was precisely because the slave maid did not pass on any news that the people in the palace must have been dissatisfied, and the TongguΓ² Anle Marquis Mansion sent someone to question, and it was found that the slave maid was pregnant...... The slave didn't mean to tarnish the reputation of the prince, but she was really helpless and didn't dare to reveal the truth......"
Lu Qingrong sighed silently in his heart.
"Since you've been hiding from everyone in the past few months, why did you just tell me the truth?" Lu Qingrong's sanity still exists.
When Lijuan heard this, a mist suddenly rose in his eyes. Instantly turned into tears and rolled down.
"Using the prince as a shield is a temporary statement of the slave maid. Self-confession is unforgivable. What's more, with the style of the Anle Hou Mansion, this may have spread all over the city...... If the slave still wants to keep the child's safety, she can only tell the truth and ask Mrs. Shizi and Shizi to open up. If you want to dispose of slaves and maids, you can wait until the child is born, and the slaves and maids will be killed. Whether it is killing or chopping, listen to it. β
The reason why Lijuan is so decisive is only because of the fear of the Marquis of Jingyuan deep in his heart.
Jiang Xuan's ruthless side on the Mobei battlefield. It has already spread all over the palace, making Lijuan, who has been in the deep palace for a long time, change his color, and face Lu Qingrong at this moment, the luck in his heart. It's just that I hope my children will be safe.
Lu Qingrong heard this. Finally figured out the whole thing.
It turned out that Empress Dowager Wu was not at ease with Jiang Xuan.
It's just an expedition to Mobei, and this time she came back, she actually provoked her to send three women openly and secretly, if you say this, I'm afraid no one will believe it.
Lu Qingrong secretly slandered, Jiang Xuan was such an important existence in their hearts? Jiang Xuan, who is calm and light in front of him on weekdays, occasionally gags. What's it like out there......
Lu Qingrong didn't let himself shine for too long.
"You mean, just for the safety of the child in the womb. Can you do whatever you want? β
Lijuan nodded again and again without hesitation, and promised: "The slave maid has not snooped on any news of the prince before, and she will never do anything to be sorry for the prince and his wife in the future!" β
Lu Qingrong bowed slightly, but did not give a reply for the time being.
The royal blood is not trivial.
This matter must be discussed with Jiang Xuan before a decision can be made.
"What other relatives do you have at home?" Lu Qingrong asked suddenly.
Lijuan hurriedly shook her head: "No." The slave maid was the only daughter in the family, her mother died early, her father was an errand in the tribute courtyard, from the official of Jiupin, and then because she was involved in the case of fraud in the department, she was confiscated outside the military customs, and the news of her death was reported back in less than a year. The slave's hometown is in Dengzhou Mansion, but there are some distant relatives, and since his father committed the crime, he has not been in contact with each other. β
"Where did the maid next to you come from?" Lu Qingrong did not let go of any detail.
"It was sent by the people of Anle Hou's Mansion after the slave maid left the palace, and the name was Suishi, it is estimated that it ...... Or for surveillance. Lijuan said frankly.
Lu Qingrong inevitably sighed in his heart.
Empress Dowager Wu took such a lot of pains to plant eyeliner around Jiang Xuan, and also let the people of the Hou Anle Mansion also get involved, this complex relationship of mutual containment, does it show their closeness or estrangement?
At this moment, he didn't have the heart to think about these things, Lu Qingrong opened his mouth and instructed: "I'm coming here today, although I try to keep a low profile, I still can't hide it from someone who has a heart." If someone mentions it, you can prevaricate the past, and your words are unscrupulous. Now you just need to be careful, and your safety has long been inseparable from the Hou Mansion. β
Looking at Lijuan's extremely surprised expression, Lu Qingrong still didn't think it was enough, glanced at the door, and added: "Just now you knelt down and begged me in front of that maid, and you must have a reasonable explanation." β
Lu Qingrong paused slightly, and finally made it clear: "It's better to come to you to question me because I listened to the rumors outside, so it coincides with your previous rhetoric." β
When Lijuan heard this, his sadness was exhausted, and his face was full of gratitude.
In the position of kneeling on the ground, she wanted to kowtow, but this big belly was in the way, and she couldn't kowtow at all, so she could only lower her head and keep thanking her in her mouth.
Lu Qingrong only felt ashamed.
She can't guarantee anything about the future of Lijuan and this child, thinking of the dangerous situation they may face, Lu Qingrong has only worries in her heart.
She hurriedly called Luzhu in.
When Lijuan's maid heard this, she also followed her into the house and helped Lijuan up.
At the same time, the maid lowered her head slightly and glanced at Lu Qingrong, as if she wanted to see how she reacted at the moment.
Lu Qingrong had already prepared, and he had already put on an angry look, staring at Lijuan's stomach and not speaking.
The maid then retracted her gaze.
Lu Qingrong never paid attention to Lijuan from getting up to leading the green bamboo out of the hall.
Walking quickly through the front yard and out of the house, it was not until he boarded the carriage of the Hou Mansion that Lu Qingrong's deliberately rigid face gradually eased, but there was still a trace of solemnity.
The carriage slowly drove out of Muxi Hutong.
"How?" Jiang Xuan gently took Lu Qingrong's hand and asked.
Lu Qingrong gently shook him back, showing a comforting smile, then raised his other hand and waved at him silently.
Jiang Xuan immediately understood and did not ask any more questions.
Lu Qingrong was worried that the carriage was not soundproofed enough, and he didn't say anything along the way.
finally returned to the Hou Mansion, and was about to talk about it with Jiang Xuan in detail, but he didn't want to, Mrs. Wu was already waiting in the hall of the Yuyuan.
When the two heard the news, they immediately exchanged a look of "what is she doing", but they both reacted instantly, and instead heard the rumors outside, and saw that the excitement was coming. (To be continued......)
