At that time, Ye Hengyun returned to his residence, with a fierce look in his eyes. Although he could not find the person who plotted against him for the time being, he could still easily deal with a woman who had harmed him.
On the morning of the next day, someone from Qi Shangshu proposed the marriage between the Ninth Prince and Qi Qiuyi. The emperor also knew some of the inside information and issued a marriage decree on the spot for the two to get married as soon as possible.
The Ministry of Rites also became busy, and the Qintian Supervisor selected a suitable wedding date for the emperor to appoint.
"Guoshi Bai has not come out of seclusion. If he is here, he will definitely be able to help me choose a good day."
The emperor sighed casually, and the eunuch immediately echoed:
"What the emperor said is true, but Guoshi Bai is in retreat to pray for the prosperity of the country. His majesty will live a long life. The date chosen by your majesty Fengze Shenshi will definitely not be bad."
The emperor smiled after hearing this and ticked a date. Just three months later, since he was not a favored prince and his mother's family was average, three months of preparation time was enough.
After Ye Hengyun knelt down to receive the imperial edict, he began to select a place outside the palace so that he could move out and build a mansion after getting married.
Everything was going step by step, and Ye Hengyun seemed to be very active, sending some small gifts to Qi Qiuyi from time to time, showing that he valued the other party.
But in reality, only Duoduo, who has been monitoring Qi Qiuyi, knows that she will complain to her master every once in a while.
"Master, that Ye Hengyun is really not a thing. Every gift he gives is hidden with murderous intent. It is full of resentment, evil and filth. If he is exposed to immortality for a long time, half of his life will be lost. Fortunately, the master has done it for her in advance. Protection, otherwise she will not be able to survive the day of marrying Ye Hengyun. "
"Oh, this is his true face. Keep an eye on him, don't let Qi Qiuyi die in vain."
< br>"Don't worry, Master, Duoduo promises to complete the task."
Duoduo immediately patted her chest and assured.
After the location of Ye Hengyun’s new mansion was settled, she sent Xuanfeng to wander around. One night after the layout of the new mansion was completed, Ye Hengyun quietly went to the newly completed building. He didn't leave the Ninth Prince's Mansion until midnight, and it was like this for two consecutive nights.
After Xuanfeng told Lianyi the news, Lianyi speculated that the other party should have arranged something in the new mansion. However, she did not rush to find out, but continued to stay in the Prince's Mansion as a bodyguard.
Three months passed by in a flash. Zhuang Junwan’s pregnancy could no longer be concealed, so the prince went to announce the good news to the emperor in person.
After hearing this, the emperor was very happy, and immediately the rewards flowed from the palace to the prince's palace. The queen was also very happy. Although this daughter-in-law was not her favorite, she knew very well that this daughter-in-law could give her son the greatest With her help, she is now pregnant, which is another advantage for the prince, so her reward is also sent to the prince's mansion soon after.
The other concubines in the palace also followed suit and gave gifts. There were also some princeling courtiers who were very happy about the fact that the prince had a baby.
The only ones who were unhappy were the prince's brothers, but these people were used to pretending to be brothers and sisters, congratulating each other and giving them their congratulatory gifts.
For a time, the Prince's Mansion was reluctant to receive gifts, and Zhuang Junwan's mother's family also sent many good things. Mrs. Zhuang also personally visited the Prince's Mansion, explained some matters about pregnancy and childbirth to her daughter, and also sent two gifts. A nanny.
Lianyi glanced at the gifts sent by Mrs. Zhuang and said to Zhuang Junwan:
"Princess, it is best for Mrs. Zhuang to take these things back. These things are not It’s suitable for you now.”
Ripple refers to a small box and several medicinal materials.
Mrs. Zhuang frowned and said with some displeasure:
"What do you mean by this? Could it be that my wife would harm her own daughter?"
Because it was a sensitive period, Mrs. Zhuang immediately understood the meaning of Ripple's words, so she was a little angry.
Zhuang Junwan knew Ripple well and knew that the other party would not target the wrong person. She patted the back of her mother's hand gently, then turned to Ripple and said:
"Honglan Heroine, you are If you've seen any clues, you might as well tell me, there are no outsiders here." Lianyi nodded and opened the small box with one hand. Inside was a set of filigree-point Cuifei phoenix noodles, which were very exquisite and gorgeous, making people fall in love with them. .
Ripple then picked up the filigree bracelet, turned it around in her hand, and then picked somewhere with the tip of her little finger. A hole popped up on the inside of the bracelet. When she poured it out, a few brown balls the size of rice grains came out. She didn't need to smell it to know that it was something that could cause a miscarriage.
When Lianyi was pouring something out, Mrs. Zhuang's expression changed, and Zhuang Junwan's expression was also bad. Although she didn't know what it was specifically, but it was hidden so secretly that it must be aimed at her. trap.
After placing the things on the table, Lianyi asked with a smile:
"Mrs. Zhuang, do you still need me to explain?"
Mrs. Zhuang took a deep breath and said ：
"Thank you Honglan Heroine. This is my negligence. I will definitely give an explanation to my daughter. I will take back what you said."
Lianyi nodded and said that it would be alright to listen to the advice, and then withdrew.
Mrs. Zhuang then gritted her teeth and said:
“Daughter, don’t worry, I will definitely give you an explanation. I have actually set my sights on you. No matter what your father says this time, I want to kill that woman.”
Zhuang Junwan could vaguely guess who did it. After all, one of the people who wanted to plot against her last time was the concubine in her family, and she could think of him. What's the idea?
If she had a miscarriage and was injured, and her family sent a girl to accompany her, it would be hard for her to refuse, but as soon as she entered the Prince's Mansion, some things would become unclear. This was a very good calculation.
Mrs. Zhuang had something on her mind. She didn't sit there for long before she hurried back to Shangshu Mansion with the problematic things picked out by Ripple. As for what happened after returning, it was none of Ripple's business.
Not long after, it was reported that Qi Shangshu's beloved concubine was suffering from an emergency. The daughter she gave birth to went to Yiyue'an to practice on her behalf in order to pray for her biological mother.
Zhuang Junwan held a round fan and said:
“It’s really an advantage for her.”
These monsters and monsters were kept out. Zhuang Junwan only needed to take good care of her fetus. After she became pregnant, the dragon energy in Ye Hengyan became stronger. Apparently, his destiny as an emperor became clearer. When he got old, Time for old replacement.
The prince came back from court that day. He changed his clothes and hurriedly came to see Zhuang Junwan. However, as soon as he stepped through the door, he was blocked by ripples.
Neither the prince nor the princess understood what Lianyi meant.
Lianyi stretched out her hand and sucked the jade pendant hanging on the prince's waist into her hand, and then asked in a cold voice:
"Your Highness, who did you meet today, and did he have contact with him? Pass your jade pendant?”
The prince thought for a while and then said:
"I went to court today and met with all the courtiers. No one touched this jade pendant. Is there anything wrong with the jade pendant?"
Lianyi listened. Then he realized that he couldn't get anything out of his question, so he raised his eyebrows and said:
"The prince's jade pendant has been swapped. If the prince continues to wear it, not to mention your son, even your position as prince will not be preserved." (End of this chapter)
