The prince had no good feelings towards He Shulan's half-sister, and spoke in a lukewarm tone: "You can't say that. I am the son-in-law of the prince's mansion, and it is my duty to come to the He Mansion."

This made He Shuzhen feel uncomfortable. In her previous life, she asked the prince to go back to the He Mansion with her, but he not only found various excuses to refuse, but also humiliated her. Now the prince has changed so much that she can't recognize him anymore: "You and my sister have a good relationship."

The prince knew that He Shuzhen was asking about their relationship: "They are already married, how can their relationship not be good?"

This answer was unexpected to He Shuzhen, who tried to stir up trouble: "Where is Li Wanrong? I still remember that not long ago, rumors were rife in the capital about how the prince doted on her and how he forgot about her so quickly."

"There's no need to think about people who are no longer in this world." The prince casually perfunctorily replied to He Shuzhen, not wanting to continue chatting with her: "The lotus flowers in the lake are in full bloom. I'll go take a look. Please help yourself."

He Shuzhen, who had not found out any information, was so angry that she stamped her feet, but she was helpless.

At this time, Xiaoyu came over and said, "Madam, I saw the Princess of the County coming out of Aunt Bai's yard."

"What?" He Shuzhen's heart was in her throat. "Are you sure you didn't see it wrong?"

"No." Xiaoyu assured solemnly: "Although the Princess took a small path, I still saw her."

He Shuzhen fell into deep thought. Could it be that Bai Lian was stuffed into the He Mansion by He Shuzhen? The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this was possible.

She definitely didn't want Liu Chen to inherit the He Mansion. This damn woman was so calculating: "I know, where is He Shulan now?"

"I was afraid of being discovered by the Princess, so I didn't dare to follow her. I don't know where she went."

He Shuzhen ignored Xiaoyu, found Chen Lerong, and told her about this matter.

Chen Lerong's expression turned ferocious: "I really underestimated He Shulan. She actually put a woman next to her father."

"Because of what she did, not only did the Liu family have an heir, but you also fell out of favor." He Shuzhen said indignantly.

"No, I can't just sit there and wait for death. I have to go and find out."

He Shuzhen grabbed Chen Lerong who was furious and said, "If you ask her like this, she will definitely not admit it. She might even go to her father and blame him. Do you know what happened? We will know how to deal with it in the future."

Chen Lerong felt that what He Shuzhen said made sense: "Yes, we can't alert the enemy now, lest He Shulan be on guard. I will never let Bai Lian go."

……

The prince was of noble status, and there were only a few people who could talk to him. He stood alone by the lake, looking at the lotus flowers blooming in the lake.

Her tall figure was shrouded in the golden sunlight. Her elegant temperament was dignified and her angular face attracted He Shulan's attention.

In the past, I overlooked him a lot because of Li Wanrong, but now, looking closely, his appearance and temperament are outstanding in the capital.

She walked over and said, "The banquet has started. We sat down and left after we finished eating."

Under the gaze of everyone, the two walked to the main seat and sat down.

Seeing that the seat next to He's father was empty, Chen Lerong asked anxiously, "Where is Aunt Bai? Why hasn't she come out yet?"

The servant standing at the back stepped forward and replied, "Madam Bai, I am not feeling well and do not plan to come out for the banquet."

"Doesn't she know that today is my birthday? She is so disrespectful to me." Chen Lerong became even more anxious. She planned to use this banquet to give Bai Lian an abortion drug.

If Bai Lian doesn't come out, how can she carry out her plan? "Go to Aunt Bai's yard and ask her to come out quickly. There are many guests in the mansion today, and everyone wants to see her."

The servant who received the order immediately went to Aunt Bai's courtyard and conveyed Chen Lerong's words to Bai Lian.

Bai Lian, lying on the recliner, felt more and more that Chen Lerong was harboring a lot of evil intentions.

The two of them had no contact in the mansion, and if they insisted on asking her to go out at this time, there must be something wrong: "Tell my wife that I am really not feeling well, I feel weak all over, and I have no appetite to eat, so I won't go out and embarrass myself."

The rejected servant had no choice but to leave and tremblingly conveyed Aunt Bai's words to Chen Lerong.

Chen Lerong was so angry that she almost lost her temper. Bai Lian, relying on the favor of He's father, ignored her even more.

She could only suppress the anger in her heart and sit there as if nothing had happened. Her plans for today were ruined again.

Soon, the servants brought the food prepared from the kitchen and placed it on the table.

The servant didn't pay attention and when he put the dishes on the table, the soup spilled on the stool and the prince's clothes.

The servant was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and kowtowed to apologize: "I'm sorry, Prince, I didn't mean it."

It was just a little bit of soup, the prince didn't care much. Today was a birthday banquet, he didn't want to spoil the fun, and waved to the servants: "It's okay."

The chair covered with brocade could no longer be sat on, so the prince sat in Aunt Bai's seat: "Everyone continue to eat."

After lunch, the servants brought dessert to each guest. The pink transparent pastries shone with a faint light, making people salivate.

Only the prince's pastry was much darker in color than others. He didn't care much and finished it in just a few bites.

Only then did Chen Lerong remember that she had arranged for the kitchen servants to deliver the pastries containing abortion drugs to this location.

She turned her head stiffly and saw that the plate in front of the prince was empty. She swallowed nervously.

To ensure that everything went well, she put a lot of abortion pills in the pastry. Not knowing if the man would be in trouble after eating it, she asked cautiously, "Prince, are you okay?"

The prince looked at Chen Lerong in confusion and said, "I'm fine. The cakes and food are delicious."

Chen Lerong showed an awkward smile on her face: "I'm glad you're okay."

He Shulan did feel that something was wrong. The prince came to the He residence for a banquet, and Chen Lerong certainly wouldn't dare to poison in public. However, she was very nervous. There must be something going on.

This time when she came to He's house, she was on guard the whole time, but she didn't expect that Chen Lerong didn't make things difficult for her at all. Could it be that the person she wanted to make difficult had become the prince?

Watching secretly.

Nothing happened until the end of the banquet. He Shulan and the Prince did not stay and got on the carriage back to the Prince's Mansion.

The prince had just stepped off the carriage and had a severe stomachache. He stretched out his trembling hands to He Shulan, who was walking in front of him, and said, "Wait for me."

He Shulan turned around and noticed something unusual happening to the prince, so she hurried over and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"I don't know, my stomach suddenly hurts a lot." The prince's face turned pale with pain: "Could it be that I ate something bad?"

"But I don't have any problems." He Shulan was afraid that something might happen to the prince, so she immediately asked her servants to call a doctor.
