Chapter 314: The Great Prince's Purpose (2)
"I didn't expect you to be so naΓ―ve until now...... Shen Nianzhen heard this, and immediately smiled: "Do you think that the eldest prince snatched Su Muwan because of love?" Wrong! He's just a disgusting prince! Even the death of the crown prince has his handiwork, right? She said meaningfully.
When Rong Chen heard this, he frowned slightly and did not refute.
Indeed, the death of the crown prince was so sudden that everyone didn't notice that there was anything wrong with it, and the emperor was the most sad and angry person, but even he himself believed that the prince hit the pillar by himself to resist the queen, and as a result, he accidentally hit it and died. In fact, there are very man-made traces of this matter.
If nothing else, let's just say that the matter of Doctor Ge was specially arranged by the eldest prince.
Don't think that this matter has passed now, Doctor Ge is fine, stay in the Shen family safe and sound, they will give up the investigation, in fact, Rong Chen has been investigating this matter very secretly.
What Shen Nianzhen said was not much different from what he thought in his heart.
"Alright, don't think about it so much." Shen Nianzhen said lightly: "If you don't want to watch Su Muwan die, send some people to keep an eye on the side of the palace, so as to prevent the eldest prince from moving behind his back, and move quickly, if you want to kill a woman who is far away from Shangjing and in the remote palace, it is too easy, it is easier than pinching an ant to death......
Before the words fell, Rong Chen opened his mouth and summoned Beiyang in, and ordered him to set off immediately, with a few guards, secretly rush to the palace, and stay there.
"You don't need to worry about the affairs in the palace, you just need to keep an eye on it, and if there is any news, you will immediately send someone to inform the palace." Rong Chen commanded in a deep voice: "Also, if you see the people of the eldest prince trying to make a move on Su Muwan, you must stop it!" β
"Yes, lord." When Beiyang heard this, he couldn't help but turn his head and glance in the direction of Shen Nianzhen, and was surprised to find that she was not angry at all, let alone speak, so he turned around and retreated.
There were only two people left in the flower hall, Shen Nianzhen and Rong Chen, Shen Nianzhen had finished eating, Rong Chen also put down his chopsticks, and the atmosphere between the two was a little stiff.
Shen Nianzhen looked at him, smiled slightly, and said, "Your Highness, don't you have anything to say to me?" β
"If there's anything you want to ask, just ask." Rong Chen lowered his head a little uncomfortably, pretending to drink the soup, but when he picked up the bowl, he suddenly found that the soup inside had already been drunk.
Shen Nianzhen smiled, stretched out his hand to take the bowl, personally filled a bowl for him, and handed it over with a smile: "The prince runs around the court every day, and he is very tired, come, drink." β
Rong Chen took the soup uncomfortably, wanting to explain something, but he didn't know how to speak.
Shen Nianzhen looked at him and smiled slightly, and said softly: "Lord Wang, in fact, you don't have to explain anything to me, and I don't have anything to ask, about Su Muwan, if you don't care about her life and death, I will be chilled." β
"Why is that?" Rong Chen raised his head sharply.
"Either way, she was once the woman you loved." Shen Nianzhen looked at him and sighed slightly: "Although she later chose someone else, abandoned you, and stepped on you again, but the original feelings were real, protect her life and safety, and prevent the conspiracy of the eldest prince from succeeding, as long as you still have blood in your heart, you should do this." β
"Actually, I don't want to care about her......" Rong Chen frowned when he heard this: "Whether she lives or dies has nothing to do with us."
"But now, with her, can she disgust the eldest prince?" Shen Nianzhen blinked his eyes and said, "The more the eldest prince wants to work hard to get rid of the person, the more I want her to live, whether this is Su Muwan or Zhang Muwan, it makes no difference." β
Rong Chen looked at her smart and cunning appearance, and couldn't help but sound in his heart what Doctor Ge had told him: "This prince, this woman is pregnant, and after giving birth to a child, her memory will decline, and she will not be as smart as before, you must not look down on the princess because of this in the future......"
Now it seems that Doctor Ge is clearly worried in vain, Shen Nianzhen is not smart?
She doesn't forget to deal with the eldest prince with a big belly!
Who told him to hurt himself first, and then hurt Doctor Ge! From this point of view, women are really retribution......
"Don't worry, I know what to do about this." Rong Chen nodded and said, "I won't let go of this opportunity......"
β¦β¦
For three days, the palace suddenly became lively.
Countless palace people rushed out, competing to watch the convoy rushing up from the bottom of the mountain, looking at the carriages, everyone had endless expectations in their hearts, could it be that His Majesty the Emperor had changed his mind and did not let the crown princess stay in such a place where birds don't, but were ready to take her back to the East Palace?
Such an idea was dispelled when he saw that the carriage had stopped in front of the palace gate and that the guards had begun to carry things from the carriage.
It turns out that it's a gift for people.
White was happy.
The palace people stood aside, watching these guards carry the food and clothing out of the palace, and they didn't say anything about helping.
In the only courtyard of the palace that was relatively intact, Su Muwan reached out and stroked her lower abdomen, listening to the noise outside, her brows furrowed tightly: "Who is that person from outside?" Is the eldest prince here? β
Zijuan also stood aside happily, originally waiting with joy, but when she heard this, her face turned pale with fright, and she couldn't wait to step forward and reach out to cover Su Muwan's mouth, she stomped her feet, lowered her voice and persuaded hurriedly: "Niangniang!" Don't say that again! Please be aware of who you are! If others hear this, I'm afraid that you and His Royal Highness the Great Prince will be in trouble! β
"Huh, trouble? Is there a bigger problem than this piece of meat in my belly? β
Su Muwan didn't care at all when she heard this, and even sneered: "You, you just like to worry about some leisure, go, go out and see, who are the people and what are they doing." β
As he spoke, he raised his feet, and was about to go out to see if he was in good spirits.
"! You wait! Zijuan was frightened or something, and hurriedly rushed up to stop her: "You should wait in the house!" The slave and maid went out to see. There are many people outside, what if one of them collides with the eyes? The people in this palace are not as good as the East Palace, there are not so many rules......"
"That's just as well."
As soon as Su Muwan heard this, she immediately remembered how the second child she was pregnant with didn't have it, and her eyes suddenly darkened when she heard this.
At that time, she was pushed by the prince and had a miscarriage, and now this child is not easy to come by, and there can be no accidents.
"Okay, then you can go out and have a look." Said solemnly.
In fact, Zijuan didn't want to go out herself, she felt that at most, she would come to some palace people, and there would be nothing wrong.
But since Su Muwan had spoken, she had to obey orders.
"Yes, sissy."
Su Muwan watched Zijuan walk out.
She lowered her head, glanced at her lower abdomen gently, and then raised her head and looked out of the window, at this time, the eldest prince already knew the news that she was pregnant, right? So is he happy, or is he unhappy? I don't know if he is looking forward to the birth of this child......
"! Empress! Zijuan suddenly rushed in from outside in a panic, and as soon as she entered the house, she slammed the door shut, and then looked at Su Muwan with a frightened expression and said, "Niangniang! Oh no! His Majesty has sent a physician to the palace! I'm going to take your pulse later! β
"What? Your Majesty sent someone? How so? When Su Muwan heard this, a trace of panic suddenly appeared on her face.
"Yes, the slave saw it just after she went out!" Zijuan frightened the six gods without a master: "Could it be that Your Majesty suspects something?" Otherwise, why would you send a doctor? Empress! I'm afraid you can't hide your pregnancy......"
"Don't panic." Su Muwan suddenly grabbed her hand.
Zijuan raised her head and saw Su Muwan's calm face.
"Crown Princess, ...... you?" She looked nervous and worried.
"Hongu is fine, you don't have to be afraid." Su Muwan looked at her, lowered her voice and said quickly, "Which imperial doctor is here?" I remember that the eldest prince bribed a physician. β
Hearing this, Zijuan also slowly calmed down, she took a breath, then looked at Su Muwan and said, "It's Imperial Doctor Qin who came." β
"That's right!" Su Muwan immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and even a smile appeared on her face: "This Imperial Physician Qin is the person of the Great Prince, even if he knows, he will be fine, and he will not leak out." οΌβ
"Really?" Zijuan was also a little happy when she heard this, and even felt a little relieved: "In this way, Your Highness still has your mother in your heart." β
I said this from her standpoint.
Su Muwan glanced at her in a good mood, and then said, "Okay, don't be happy, help me in and lie down!" β
The imperial doctor came to check the pulse, and since she claimed to be sick to the outside world, she had to look sick.
"Yes, sissy." Zijuan said immediately.
As soon as Su Muwan lay down, there was a knock at the door, Zijuan hurriedly went over to open the door, but it turned out that it was Lady Zhou who walked in from outside, and it was the imperial doctor who followed her.
"Your Majesty sent me to take charge of the palace for the Su family and take care of her food, clothing, housing and transportation." Female Officer Zhou's sharp eyes swept across Zijuan's face.
"Oh......" Zijuan was stunned when she heard this, and didn't react for a while.
She was just outside to see the doctor, but she didn't notice Lady Zhou.
A weak female voice sounded behind her, accompanied by a low cough: "Zijuan, who is outside?" β
"Hui Niangniang, it's the female official Zhou sent by His Majesty, and the Imperial Physician Qin." Zijuan replied immediately.
After speaking, he turned to the side and said to Lady Zhou: "Mama, please come in, there is also the imperial doctor." β
Female Official Zhou nodded, walked in with her head held high and some disdain, while Imperial Physician Qin followed behind her.
Because he knew in advance that Imperial Physician Qin was the person of the eldest prince, Zijuan was very relieved of him, but this female official of Zhou was sent by His Majesty, and he didn't know what the purpose was, so Zijuan carried a heart.
Entering the house, the curtains were low, the windows were closed, and the room was a little dark, and the female official Zhou walked over and opened the window without waiting for someone to order: "The master is sick, why doesn't this window open for ventilation?" It's going to make her worse. β
"However, our master is afraid of seeing the light...... Zijuan said on the side, as she spoke, she glanced sideways at Imperial Physician Qin, trying to get her to help.
However, Imperial Physician Qin didn't say anything, lowering his head and not knowing what he was thinking.
As soon as the room was bright, Su Muwan, who was lying on the bed, saw more and more clearly. It was the first time for Imperial Physician Qin to see such a beauty, and he couldn't help but be stunned.
"Your Majesty sent you?" Su Muwan's eyes swept over the two of them and coughed lightly.
Female official Zhou swept her eyes on Su Muwan, she had long heard that this princess was beautiful and beautiful, and all the men who saw her were all fascinated, but now when she saw it, she really knew that this sentence was not an exaggeration, this princess was really very beautiful, otherwise the prince had been dead for so long, and the emperor was not willing to kill her.
No matter how tired she is, you have to raise her.
Such a person, thanks to marrying the prince and failing to enter the harem, otherwise there would be other concubines?
It's not a good thing for such a woman to stay with their Highness!
Mama Zhou's gaze fell on Su Muwan's lower abdomen.
Xu is eyes were too sharp, Su Muwan was startled, immediately stretched out her hand to protect her stomach, coughed uncomfortably, and said: "Bengong was very sick before, and now I have taken the medicine prescribed by the doctor, and I am much better, I can't blow the wind, and I don't want to see outsiders, you all go down first." β
"How can that work?" Lady Zhou immediately said: "Su, Your Majesty sent a slave to serve you, you let me retreat, it should be, it's just that the doctor has been working hard for most of the day, just to diagnose your pulse, it's not appropriate to just take it away, right?" Let him take your pulse! In this way, the slave and maid are more at ease. β
After speaking, he motioned for the imperial doctor to step forward and take the pulse.
If this was another imperial doctor, Su Muwan would have gotten off the bed and scolded, but she knew that this imperial doctor Qin was the person of the eldest prince, and this time she came, it was possible that she came on the order of the eldest prince, so Su Muwan did not refuse, and let the imperial doctor come forward and take her pulse.
Imperial Physician Qin sat down on the brocade stool in front of the hospital bed and reached out to catch Su Muwan's pulse.
Female official Zhou looked at it without squinting.
She looked at it so seriously, which made Su Muwan a little scared. was originally determined, but suddenly there was a little worry.
After a while, Imperial Physician Qin let go of his hand.
"The crown princess is indeed infected with wind and cold, but with medicine, the effect is good, and now she is half better."
Hearing this, Su Muwan breathed a long sigh of relief, and looked at Female Officer Zhou with a smile: "Now, you can step down, right?" β
Hearing this, Lady Zhou stood up, saluted Su Muwan expressionlessly, and then led the imperial doctor down to settle down.
In the room, Su Muwan and Zijuan were greatly relieved, feeling that they had escaped.
"Mother, you still have to find a way." Zijuan frowned, with a nervous and worried face: "It's not okay to be like this, after all, you are pregnant, this belly is getting bigger day by day, how can you hide everyone?" When His Majesty finds out, you'll still have to die......"
"What is not dead, how unlucky!"
When Su Muwan heard this, she immediately frowned, stretched out her hand and hugged her lower abdomen like a baby, and said: "This child is not someone else's, it is the eldest prince, he is not married now, he is not married, there is not even a concubine in the house, if this child is born as a concubine, he is the only heir of the eldest prince, and he is the grandson of His Majesty, and may be the eldest grandson of the emperor!" Your Majesty can't kill me. β
"Mother, I'm afraid you forgot, right?"
Zijuan had to splash her with cold water: "The second princess and concubine have been pregnant for a long time, and they are about to give birth, if she gives birth to a boy, the name of the eldest grandson of the emperor will be taken away by her child, Niangniang, we can't compare......"
There are so many things that have happened in the past few days, and they are all major matters of life and death, Su Muwan has already forgotten about Shen Nianzhen, and her brows furrowed when she heard this.
His face also darkened.
As soon as Zijuan saw it, she knew that she was in trouble, and immediately lowered her head and looked at her toes.
I didn't dare to speak again.
"Hmph, whether she can give birth to this child, even if she is born alive or not, it is not certain! Wouldn't it be too early to say that? When Su Muwan heard this, she immediately sneered.
"That's what the mother said." Zijuan lowered her head and agreed.
"This palace is suffering here, why is she eating and drinking spicy food and spicy food every day in the second prince's mansion, and she can see Rong Chen every day."
Su Muwan gritted her teeth, her face was hideous and terrifying: "No, I want to find something for her to do......
Seeing her like this, Zijuan couldn't help but shiver and quickly lowered her head.
She thought her master must be crazy.
They are still too busy to take care of themselves, so what energy do they have to deal with others?
Forget it, she is also unfounded, what can the master do if she stays in this palace?
β¦β¦
For half a month, there were mutton stewed carrots on the dinner table, and some dishes that she couldn't name, all of which were very fragrant and delicious, and they were very similar to Shen Nian's true taste.
However, even if Shen Nianzhen likes to eat meat again, he will be tired of eating it for half a month.
In the evening of that day, she looked at a large table full of steaming meat dishes, and she was full before she could eat with chopsticks.
"What's wrong? Not to your liking? Then I'll tell them to change some. Rong Chen walked in from outside, took off his robe and handed it to the maid to hang up, washed his hands and walked over, and sat down in front of Shen Nianzhen.
"yes, I don't want to eat it." Shen Nianzhen reached out and touched his cheek and sighed.
"What's wrong?" Rong Chen sat down dotingly and let her lean against his chest.
"Lord Wang, I want to eat noodle soup." Shen Nianzhen suddenly raised his head and looked at him, and said, "Cook it in water, just put the dough sheet and two green vegetables, put a little sesame oil, it will be delicious!" β
It's also too light.
Rong Chen instinctively wanted to refuse, but looking at Shen Nianzhen's expectant gaze, he couldn't say anything to refuse.
