Chapter 240: The Eighth Lady's Predicament
After a rain, it was like a sudden autumn, and the summer heat was swept away, and a chilly wind blew.
"Are you alright?" asked the third lady, sitting on the edge of the bed.
"It's okay!" the eighth lady stroked her stomach and said lightly, "This child is still reluctant to let me go away after all!"
"Do you know the consequences of a powerful enemy if you can't hit it with one blow?" the third lady asked softly, "This time, the princess has no face, she will no longer be patient with you, and see if she still needs this child, if she decides to abandon this child, then your situation will be very dangerous!"
The eighth lady bit her lip lightly: "No, she can't give birth to herself, she won't give up this child easily!
The third lady smiled lightly: "The princess needs a child with the blood of the Yang family, but you are not the only one who can give birth to this child!"
The eighth lady's hand grabbed the quilt tightly, she grabbed the third lady's sleeve, and asked anxiously: "I have no way, she is like a mountain, I feel that I can't fight with her at all, I thought she couldn't give birth to a child and didn't put her in my eyes, but then I found out that I was wrong!" Her status in the palace has deep roots, and the Yang family helps her, I am not like Concubine Jiang, although she does not have her mother's backing, but the Queen Mother likes it, she is still the righteous daughter of Princess Jin, and she is more favored by the prince, and I don't want you to have a relationship with the prince for more than ten years, and I know my cousin's every move very well. ”
After a pause, she continued: "I was wrong, I was really wrong!
"I've been fighting with her for so many years, if I have a way, why did I get to this point?" the third lady smiled bitterly, "I'll go and discuss it with Concubine Jiang again, there should be a way." ”
"Please, you must help me!" said the Eighth Lady pleadingly.
The third lady left Linlang Pavilion, thought about it, and went to Qiushui Garden.
Mo Ziyu was looking at medical skills at this time, she entered and said with a smile: "Are you busy at this time?"
"Yes!" Mo Ziyu smiled lightly, "Yesterday, I went to the palace to ask the Queen Mother for peace, the Queen Mother had a headache, and the imperial doctor changed several prescriptions but did not let the Queen Mother recover." ”
"The Queen Mother's head wind is ** sick. The third lady said, "After all these years, I haven't seen well. ”
"Yes, so I'll come back and see if there is any way to cure the Queen Mother's headache. Mo Ziyu said, "But I've read several medical books, but I still haven't had a particularly good way!"
"Are there any diseases that you won't cure? Don't you know what the people say about you, saying that you are the reincarnation of a Bodhisattva, in the world Huatuo!" the third lady said while laughing, "It is said that there are still people who want to build a temple for you and make an immortal plaque!"
"You're too exaggerated!" Mo Ziyu smiled lightly, "There are thousands of incurable diseases in this world, and I have only scratched the surface of the subtlety of this medical skill." There's a lot to learn!"
"Eighth Lady's body, how do you look?" the Third Lady asked after a pause.
"The fetus is saved, just rest for a few days, as long as you don't exercise vigorously and don't fluctuate too much!" Mo Ziyu said, "This child has a big fate, I just hope that the eighth lady can protect this child, so that this child can be born safely!"
"How easy it is!" said the third lady, "do you think the princess will be willing to let her go?
"The palace is a dangerous place for her, if you really want to give birth to the child peacefully, the only way to leave the palace is to leave!" Mo Ziyu said.
"Leaving the palace?" the third lady's brows furrowed slightly.
"No matter what, the eighth lady is the Yang family after all, find a reason to go back to her parents' house to raise the baby, whether it is the princess or the Yang family, they will always give some face. Mo Ziyu said, "Let her parents come forward to promise that after the child in her womb is born safely, she will pass under the knees of the princess and never set foot in the palace again." Let's see if the princess will be soft-hearted and let their mother and son go. ”
The third lady thought for a while: "Now that I think about it, it seems that there is only this way, so I will tell her and let her go to her mother's house!
Inside the Wuling Courtyard.
Since the accident of the eighth lady, the princess has thoroughly investigated the matter after her return, and repeatedly tortured the two maids who were in charge of taking care of the cat, and they both said that they did not know about the training of cats to hurt people.
Since the two cats were sent to the palace, only the two of them have been able to approach, and the others have no such possibility.
The princess pressed her temples irritably, and she couldn't figure out what was wrong with this matter.
"Princess, those two are dead. Lily of the valley said, "After ordinary people have been tortured, it is impossible for their mouths to be so hard, and the slave maid thinks that this matter may not be the work of the two of them." ”
"Whether they did it or not, since something happened to the pets they were responsible for, they should also die!" the princess said coldly, "What do the people in the family say?"
"The young lady also came with the news, she has carefully investigated the Yang family, and she has not found any clues!" "But the young lady also said one thing, when the ninth lady was in the Yang family, she was responsible for taking care of those pets, including the bobtail!"
"Oh?" the princess's brow furrowed.
"However, the Ninth Lady does not have this opportunity. Lily of the valley said, "Every time she comes to Wuling Courtyard, someone follows her, there is no way to contact that short tail, if she starts training in the Yang family, there is no reason, she must be the eighth lady came to the palace first, and she will not know that the young lady will send a cat to the princess!
"Ambition can swell, but courage can also grow! In any case, she is the biggest suspicion in this matter. The princess thought for a while and said, "Find two people to keep an eye on her and see if she has too much contact with Jiang Liu!"
"Yes!"
While talking, I could only hear the maid outside: "Princess, the Ninth Lady is here!"
The princess sneered: "She came just in time, let her in!"
"Yes!"
After a while, the Ninth Lady came: "Greetings to the princess!"
"You're just in time, I have something to ask you!" said the princess coldly, "You used to take care of the cat that your sister-in-law gave me, why did you never tell me?"
The Ninth Lady smiled lightly and said, "The slave maid thought that this was just a trivial matter, so she didn't tell the princess, and besides, the slave maid had low self-esteem in her heart and didn't want to mention what happened in the Yang family before." ”
The princess's smile was even colder: "What's the matter, you were embarrassed to be a slave in the palace before?"
"Don't dare!" the Ninth Lady hurriedly knelt down, "The slave maid has never thought of it like this, it's just ...... It's just that the princess is so noble, every time she thinks of the princess's appearance, the slave maid is ashamed of herself in her heart, and now she is serving the princess with the princess, and the concubine just hopes that she can get closer to the princess!"
"You are also worthy of being compared to the princess?" said Lily of the Valley in a cold voice.
"The slave maid is naturally not worthy of being compared with the princess!" the ninth lady hurriedly said, "The slave maid is just aiming for the princess, and she wants to become better and better repay the princess and the Yang family!"
"Forget it!" the princess said lightly, "Don't talk too far, is the matter of the eighth lady related to you?
"No!" the Ninth Lady swore to the sky, "The slave and maid really don't know anything about this, and the slave and the maid swear to the sky that if this matter is related to the slave and the maid, the slave and the maid are willing to die well! The slave and the maid are also very surprised when they hear this, but the princess can think about it, the slave and the maid have no such opportunity at all! Every time the slave and maid come here, the time is very short, but she has teased the cat twice, but at that time, the maid has to be there, and the slave has the opportunity to train the cat to do this kind of thing! Besides, the matter of framing the princess is to give the slave and maid a few more dares, and the slave and maid will not dare!"
"This time, I really can't find any evidence that it has anything to do with you!" the princess said coldly, she got up and walked slowly to the Ninth Lady, raising her chin, "But one day, if I find out that you have a different heart for me, I will make your life worse than death!"
"The slave understands that the slave will never dare to betray the princess!"
"Go down!" said the princess lightly.
"Yes, slave and maid retire!" the Ninth Lady hurriedly retreated.
"Don't be angry, princess, although it was calculated this time, but the prince didn't want to punish the princess, he still believes in you, Madame!"
"Hmph, if he believes me, he will investigate thoroughly, and he won't let Jiang Liu talk nonsense with the two sluts of the third lady, and feel that this matter is instigated by me behind my back!"
"What is the Eighth Lady going to do?" Lily of the Valley asked again, "She already has a disagreement with Madame, if she stays any longer, I'm afraid it will be a trouble!"
"I originally wanted to support her, but she is as stupid as a pig, and she doesn't know how to lift, since she is against me, how can I spare her? For this princess, she is just a piece of meat on my chopping board, and it is easy to move her!"
"If the princess wants to clean up the eighth lady, she must hurry up, lest they come up with other methods, and now they are not very peaceful!" said Lily of the Valley.
The princess's eyes narrowed, revealing a hint of murderous intent.
