Shen Changge frowned slightly and said, "Then what did you tell him?" ”

"The slave didn't say anything!" Huan Chun said urgently, "Every time the eldest prince finds the slave and asks about His Highness, the slave and maid try their best to perfunctory the past, and does not reveal a single cent about His Highness. ”

Shen Changge didn't speak, staring at her intently, carefully observing her reaction, not missing a trace of expression on her face.

Huan Chun's expression was very firm, and his eyes were full of seriousness, not like he was lying.

After being silent for a while, Shen Changge said again: "Then what? Gone? ”

Huan Chun lowered his head again: "Before the slave maid followed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to the Northern Jin Kingdom, the eldest prince gave the slave maid a kind of medicinal powder, so that the slave maid could find an opportunity to put it into His Highness's food. Although the eldest prince assured the slave and maid many times that this medicine powder would not kill His Royal Highness, the slave and maid still did not want to hurt His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness was the life-saving benefactor of the slave and maid, how could the slave and maid take revenge? ”

Shen Changge fell into silence for a long time when he heard this.

She didn't believe it, the medicinal powder that Shen Tianhua handed over to Huanchun would not kill her.

Shen Tianhua has been peeking at her crown prince for a long time, and he has long wanted to deal with her, how can he not take her life by quietly giving Huanchun medicinal powder?

But during the mission to the Western Chu Kingdom, her diet was normal, and her body did not have any discomfort.

Then it was certain that Huan Chun did not use the powder in her food.

Seeing that she didn't react for a long time, Huan Chun hesitated and continued: "After returning from the Northern Jin Kingdom, the eldest prince threatened the slave and maid with the child and asked the slave and maid to listen to him. Once, when the eldest prince sent the slave and maid to his palace to see him, the eldest prince suddenly asked the slave and maid if the prince had stayed in the East Palace for the first night. Although the slave didn't know why the eldest prince asked this, she also knew that she couldn't tell him, so she lied and perfunctory. ”

Shen Changge frowned slightly when he heard this, and secretly pondered.

Since she came back from the Northern Jin Kingdom, Shen Yiqing has only stayed in her East Palace for one night.

And that night was the night when Shen Huanting drugged him.

How could Shen Tianhua know about this?

Did he secretly send someone to keep an eye on her East Palace, or was there something else?

Huan Chun quietly observed her reaction and said, "Your Highness, what the slave and maid should have said is finished, as for what His Royal Highness handed over to the slave and maid that day, it was really not the slave and maid who took the initiative to hand it over to the eldest prince." The slave and maid are all true, if there is half a lie, let the slave and maid be thundered by the sky, and will not die well! ”

She said very resolutely, without any hesitation on her face, but with a serious and resolute face.

Shen Changge stared at her and pondered for a moment before he said, "All this is just your words, how can this palace be sure that what you said is true?" ”

Huan Chun was nervous: "Your Highness, what the slave said is true, and I will never dare to have half a lie!" ”

But she also knew that only they knew best about her and the eldest prince, and it was indeed difficult for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to believe it based on her words alone.

Time passed little by little, and the hall was so quiet that even a thin needle could be heard falling on the ground.

Huan Chun only felt that his heart was hanging in his throat, and his palms were covered with fine sweat.

Just when Huanchun suspected that he would be so nervous that he would suffocate, he finally heard Shen Changge speak.

Shen Changge: "Do you want to give birth to this child?" ”

Huanchun was slightly stunned and hesitated, but after a while, she raised her head sharply and looked at Shen Changge with a determined gaze.

"Your Highness, the slave maid knows that this child should not exist, but the slave maid really wants to keep this child, and I ask Your Highness to fulfill it."

Shen Changge asked again: "Then do you still want to stay by the side of this palace?" ”

Huan Chun: "The slave and maid know that they are deeply guilty, but please ask Your Highness to give the slave and maid a chance to atone for their sins, and the slave and maid will definitely serve Your Highness wholeheartedly in the future." ”

Shen Changge put down the teacup and let out a crisp crashing sound, which shocked Huanchun for no reason.

"Hongu gives you two choices."

"Your Highness, please speak."

"If you stay in the East Palace, you can't keep the child in your belly, and if you want to keep that child, you can't stay in the East Palace. The choice is yours. ”

Shen Changge said very calmly, without the slightest emotional fluctuation in her tone, but only she knew that her heart was not as calm as her face.

She knew it was a difficult choice, but she couldn't help it.

Who let Huanchun carry Shen Tianhua's child in his belly.

What's more, if the palace maid of her East Palace suddenly gives birth to a child, it will inevitably arouse suspicion.

She didn't want to cause trouble for the East Palace.

Huan Chun didn't know what she was thinking, and at this time she was completely caught in a difficult choice, and she couldn't make a decision for a long time.

She was reluctant to give up His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, nor the unborn child in her womb.

So how should she choose?

"You don't have to be in a hurry to answer this palace now, this palace gives you a day to think about it, you can tell this palace your choice tomorrow night."

After speaking, she waved her hand to signal Huan Chun to step back.

And after Huanchun left, she sat weakly on the chair, looking tired.

I don't know how long later, Mo Chu walked in from outside the hall, and what he saw was her listless appearance.

"Your Highness, what are you thinking?" Mo Chu stepped forward and put a bowl of porridge in front of her, "I heard that His Highness didn't eat much at the banquet, so his subordinates let the dining room boil porridge, Your Highness can use some." ”

"Thank you." Shen Changge sat up straight, picked up the porridge and ate a few bites, but felt tasteless.

Putting down the porridge, she motioned for Mo Chu to sit down and asked, "Mo Chu, what do you think of Huanchun?" ”

"Why would Your Highness ask that?"

"You just have to answer me, with what you know about Huanchun, what kind of person do you think she is?"

Mo Chu thought for a while and said, "Huanchun is very neat and capable, but sometimes she always feels that she has something in her heart." ”

"Then if I let Huanchun go out of the palace, do you think it's appropriate for me to do this?"

Mo Chu smiled and said: "You are the prince, what's wrong with letting a palace maid out of the palace?" Is there any more reason for this? Besides, you must have your own reasons for doing this. ”

Shen Changge sighed: "I just have this idea, as for what to do in the end, it depends on Huanchun's choice." ”

"But what happened?"

"It's fine." Shen Changge shook his head and casually made an excuse, "I just think that Huanchun can't be allowed to stay in the palace for the rest of her life, she has to get married, right?" It's better to let her out of the palace and marry someone earlier. ”

Mo Chu was convinced: "You think about Huanchun so much, if she knows about it, she will definitely be very grateful to you, so you don't have to think about it, it will only increase your troubles." ”

Shen Changge raised the corners of his lips and did not speak again.

It's better to wait for Huanchun to make a decision first, and worrying about these now is indeed adding to your own troubles.

Although she didn't plan to leave Huan Chun in the East Palace again.

Even if Huanchun really didn't betray her, when she thought of Huanchun and Shen Tianhua's things, her heart was a little uncomfortable after all.
