Chapter 111: Bear Heart and Leopard Courage (2)

When Madam Yan heard the prince's voice, she was startled at first, but soon calmed down. She first carefully wiped off her tadpole-shaped eyebrows, then quickly finished painting them before standing up gracefully.

She walked to the Second Prince, who was sitting on a chair and breathing heavily, and stretched out her left hand to hold his neck. She slowly leaned closer, and then said tenderly, "What's wrong with the Prince? Why are you so angry?"

"How dare you ask? Don't you know what good things you have done?" The second prince roared angrily. He tried hard to shake off Madam Yan who was clinging to him, but she quickly grabbed his arms.

"Let me go!"

"No, I won't let you go." Madam Yan squeezed into the Second Prince's arms while acting coquettishly, and gently asked along his chest: "Prince, what is going on? Let me understand it clearly."

"Well let me ask you, where are the secret guards who lent you home to visit your parents last time?" The Second Prince's anger subsided a little when he looked at the beauty in his arms. When he heard her question, he immediately remembered the ridicule he suffered in the hall today.

"Ah, aren't they where they are supposed to be?" Madam Yan looked up at the Second Prince and blinked her eyes and smiled.

The Second Prince pushed her out of his arms, and Madam Yan, who was caught off guard, fell to the ground. "Prince?"

"Humph, you still refuse to tell the truth now. Then we will wait a little longer and let you argue with the palace eunuchs."

A trace of panic flashed across Madam Yan's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure. She raised her hand to tidy up her messy hair, and before continuing to pester the Second Prince, she adjusted herself to a more comfortable position and knelt on the ground.

As time went by, Madam Yan, who was kneeling on the ground, began to sway from side to side, and was about to fall. The nanny standing next to her was so anxious that sweat broke out on her forehead. She wanted to speak but hesitated several times, but Madam Yan shook her head to stop her.

The eunuch in the palace who was in charge of execution finally arrived late. When he entered the room, he saw the Second Prince sitting on a chair with a dark face. He turned around and saw the beautiful woman kneeling on the ground with a pale face. He thought to himself that his luck was really bad and this trip was not a bad one.

The leading eunuch looked around and finally clasped his fists to ask the Second Prince for instructions: "It's getting late. We have to go to the Sun family to pass on the decree. What do you think, Your Majesty?"

The second prince waved to the eunuch, then turned sideways and turned his head to the other side.

"The emperor's oral order: Yan'er, the concubine of the Second Prince's Mansion, secretly colluded with the second branch of the Sun family to commit murder. She shall be punished with thirty strokes of the cane and go to the ancestral temple to pray for blessings. Without special pardon, she shall not leave the ancestral temple even a step."

"Madam Yan, this is the evidence and testimony sent by Liuzhou Prefecture. Do you have anything else to say?"

Madam Yan was holding the dozen testimonies in her hand and was really shocked. She didn't expect that the secret guards of the Second Prince's Mansion were so cowardly. She shook her head and thought rapidly about how to resolve the situation this time.

When the opened wooden box was placed heavily in front of her with a bang, revealing two slightly discolored legs and dried blood inside, Madam Yan could no longer hold back and began to dry heave.

"Ugh..."

The Second Prince turned around in surprise. Seeing the frail Madam Yan vomiting so violently, he immediately felt distressed and hurriedly shouted, "What happened? Wasn't she fine just now?"

The eunuch was at a loss as to what to do with this sudden situation. At this time, the nanny beside Madam Yan whispered back, "Madam's baby has been late for several days. Could it be that..."

Upon hearing this, the Second Prince was stunned at first, and then he shouted in ecstasy: "Ah, what are you waiting for, quickly go and get the imperial physician!" He walked quickly to Madam Yan, picked her up personally, and carefully placed her on the chair.

If she is really pregnant, this belly is worth a lot of money. Although the Second and Third Prince's Mansions already have little princes, no family would complain about having too many babies, right? The eunuch wiped his forehead and had to wait for the imperial physician to check his pulse before deciding whether to continue the punishment.

The imperial physician was "dragged" over as fast as possible. When the frightened imperial physician heard that he was checking Madam Yan's pulse to see if she was pregnant, he immediately felt relieved. Such a pulse was very easy to check. "Congratulations, Your Highness. Congratulations, Your Highness. Madam Yan is already one month pregnant."

"This is real?"

"You didn't make a mistake?"

The Second Prince and the leading eunuch asked the imperial physician at the same time.

"This, this pulse is very easy to feel. I won't be wrong." The imperial physician looked at the two of them and nodded affirmatively.

"Okay, okay, reward, a big reward." The second prince shouted happily.

The palace was filled with joy. Seeing this, the head eunuch was even more hesitant to make a decision. He winked at the little eunuch and asked him to return to the palace to ask for instructions. Then he smiled and congratulated the Second Prince and Madam Yan: "Congratulations to the palace, congratulations to Madam Yan. If it is convenient, can I ask for a glass of water in the palace?"

The Second Prince was now completely focused on Madam Yan's belly, and waved his hand indifferently at the eunuch's words. Seeing this, the manager quickly took the eunuch away to rest and sent someone to serve him well.

In the imperial study of the palace, the four elders, the heads of the families, Lord Li from the Ministry of Revenue, and Lord Luo from the Ministry of Works were discussing the control and allocation of grains and herbs mentioned in Feng Yizhen's letter.

The emperor laughed out loud when he heard the eunuch's report. "Should we say that Madam Yan has good luck or bad luck?"

Wang Huang was very happy to hear that the royal family had a new member, but he turned around and glanced at the expressionless Feng Lao and the head of the Feng family. He knew that if he didn't give an explanation to Liuzhou Prefecture, he would not be able to justify this matter, so he said angrily: "Humph, no matter whether you are lucky or unlucky, you should be punished if you do something wrong!"

Then he added: "Send the oral order to the Second Prince's Mansion. The board will be temporarily recorded and sent to the ancestral temple after the birth. No matter whether the child is a boy or a girl, he will be directly handed over to the princess to raise. During the period of waiting for delivery, she is not allowed to contact anyone except the regular consultation by the imperial physician, and she is not allowed to step out of her own courtyard. The emperor sent a few people to guard her courtyard."

Seeing that no one was talking to him, the eunuch withdrew and went to the Second Prince's Mansion to pass on the message. Madam Yan, who was happy that she could escape this disaster, fainted after hearing the oral order. Seeing this, the Second Prince's Concubine smiled coldly and turned back to her own courtyard with her people.

"Hahaha..." The Second Princess in the main house couldn't hold back any longer and threw herself into the nanny's arms and laughed heartily. Her personal maid hurriedly closed the door, sent everyone away, and stood guard at the door herself.

Mammy gently stroked the princess' back, who had already turned from laughing to crying, and silently comforted her: "Mammy, I, I, I am happy!"
