Was the whole group wiped out in the previous life? Reborn to drag the crippled king into the bridal

"I haven't found any clues yet." Duan Jin mobilized the palace's personnel and investigated from the afternoon until late at night.

In recent years, the horse slave rarely left the house. He was either working in the stable or resting in the servants' room. He basically had no contact with outsiders.

Especially after being beaten with a stick two years ago, he developed some chronic illnesses, his health became worse and worse, and he became a little gloomy.

When the King of Jin learned of Ma Nu's current situation, he was finally shaken, "It seems that he really hates me."

Duan Jin sighed, "After he was beaten with a stick, his wounds fester and pus oozes out. The people he lives with dislike him and say some unpleasant things to him."

Ma Nu was blamed innocently and had spent all his savings on treating his injuries. It was understandable that he felt resentful.

Prince Jin said nothing more, asked Duan Jin to leave, and went to the Moon-Watching Pavilion.

Shen Xiyue had not woken up yet, and he had no intention of having fun tonight, so he stayed overnight in her yard so that she could see him when she woke up tomorrow.

In Lanting Garden on the other side, Meixiang had just received the news.

She walked slowly into the bedroom, which was still lit, and reported to Li Ying, "Madam, the prince has gone to the Moon Viewing Pavilion."

The bedroom is divided into two parts by the Duobao Pavilion. The inner room is the bedroom, and the outer room is furnished with tables, chairs and a chaise longue, which can be used as a small study.

Li Ying was holding a book in her hand, lazily leaning on the chaise longue. She didn't even raise her eyes when she heard the words, "Is the concubine awake?"

Meixiang stood beside the chaise longue with her head lowered, her eyebrows lowered and her eyes submissive, "I haven't received any news, so it should be not yet."

Li Ying put down the book, "She even accompanied him when he was unconscious. The concubine is indeed the apple of the prince's eye."

Meixiang gently advised, "Since your majesty has already let go, don't think too much about it, so as not to cause any more heartache."

Li Ying stood up and walked towards Duobao Pavilion, then went around and entered the bedroom. "It's late at night, go to bed, and remember to clean up outside."

"Yes, your majesty." Meixiang followed and took off the hair ornaments from Li Ying's hair as she sat down in front of the bronze mirror.

After serving Li Ying to rest, Meixiang lowered the curtain, went out to put away the book she had just read, and took the opportunity to take a look at the book cover.

It turned out to be a notebook used to kill time, but Li Ying had never read these before, thinking that they were inferior things.

Meixiang placed the book on the table in confusion, turned off the light and went out. The bedroom instantly became pitch black, and one could not see one's hand in front of one's face.

In the darkness, Li Ying's voice rang out softly, "Is it really worth using your life to exchange for an unborn child?"

The next morning.

Shen Xiyue finally woke up from her coma.

Prince Jin was still asleep. She turned her head and saw that familiar face.

Although there were many women in the backyard of Prince Jin's mansion, the courtyard where Prince Jin spent most of the night was her Moon-Watching Pavilion.

Although she had been married for five or six years and had not yet given birth to a child, the King of Jin's preference for her had only increased.

Thinking of her child, she, who was obsessed with love, suddenly remembered yesterday's accident and hurriedly called Xizhu in to serve her.

Xizhu was keeping watch outside. She deliberately lowered her voice, but still woke up Prince Jin.

Prince Jin's eyelashes twitched slightly, and then he opened his eyes and spoke in a low voice, "My beloved concubine is finally awake, how do you feel?"

When Xizhu heard his voice, he immediately retracted the foot that had just stepped forward. He had already explained yesterday that he would be the one to handle the matter of the abortion.

After saying that, he had to comfort the sad Shen Xiyue, so it was not convenient for her to go in and disturb her at this time.

Shen Xiyue was still lying there, and subconsciously reached out to touch her belly, "Prince, our child..."

Prince Jin raised his hand and covered her face, caressing her gently, "My beloved, please accept my condolences. We will have more children in the future."

"Gone, gone?" Shen Xiyue's eyes instantly turned red, and mist filled her eyes. "Gone again?"

Prince Jin turned over, held her in his arms, and kissed away her tears. "You really shouldn't have joined in the fun yesterday."

Shen Xiyue gnashed her teeth, "It's Li Ying, right? She won't let me give birth to a first son. She doesn't even want me to have a child."

"I have no evidence at the moment. My beloved concubine, please calm down and listen to me first..." Prince Jin told Duan Jin the truth about his investigation.

Shen Xiyue was choking on her words, "How could it be that horse slave? It was just a few lashes with the cane, why would he retaliate against us like this?"

King Jin soothed him softly, "I didn't believe it at first, but Duan Jin has investigated it in detail. I'm afraid that slave really hates you and me."

Shen Xiyue burst into tears, "If he has hatred, he can take it out on me, but how can he hurt our innocent child? I finally got pregnant."

The King of Jin kept wiping her tears, "My beloved, take good care of yourself. We will have children in the future. You will definitely give birth to a son for me."

Shen Xiyue buried her head in her arms and cried, "My Lord, why is my life so miserable? I pity our child..."

***

A few days later.

It was late at night, in the backyard of the Prince's Mansion.

Mo Zhaohua was giving acupuncture to Chu Xuanchi, and Wuying was helping.

Chu Xuanchi counted the days and said, "Zhao Zhao, we should go to the Fuguogong Mansion for a medicinal bath."

In fact, he should have gone a long time ago, but going twice a month was too frequent, and he still hasn't thought of an excuse.

Mo Zhaohua was so calm, "Don't worry, my husband. If you can't think of a good excuse, we can just not go this month."

Chu Xuanchi couldn't be as calm as she was about the treatment. "But don't we have to take a medicinal bath at least twice a month?"

"That's how it should be, but we need to be careful. Going there too often will arouse suspicion, which will be counterproductive."

Wuying was more anxious than Chu Xuanchi, "We still have to think of a way to take a medicinal bath in our own house."

Mo Zhaohua said: "There are too many spies in the mansion, and they are keeping a close eye on us. If we are discovered, all our efforts will be wasted. It is better to be cautious."

Chu Xuanchi echoed, "Yes, last time you changed the medicine on your own initiative, and you were almost discovered by the palace doctor. This kind of thing can only happen once and not twice."

The excuse Mo Zhaohua made last time couldn't be used forever. She had to take care of her body, so she stopped giving Chu Xuanchi the medicine.

Wuying didn't want to delay his treatment, so she secretly replaced the medicine prescribed by the court doctor with the medicine prescribed by Mo Zhaohua, and she decocted it herself.

He was complacent as he had not been discovered in the early stages. However, a few days later, the court doctor smelled something and came looking for him, almost exposing the matter.

Fortunately, Chu Xuanchi pretended to be sick in time and asked the court doctor to take his pulse. Wuying took the opportunity to replace the medicinal materials, thus escaping the disaster.

After this incident, the court doctor must have been on high alert, and Wuying naturally no longer dared to secretly change the medicine, so that Chu Xuanchi had no more medicine.

Wuying was a little embarrassed. "I am also worried, but it is indeed too easy for something to go wrong. I will just listen to the princess's arrangements from now on."

Mo Zhaohua said: "Whether it's a medicinal bath or taking medicine, it will speed up the treatment. Even if it's just acupuncture, my husband will be able to stand up sooner or later."

Acupuncture combined with medicated baths and drug treatment can achieve twice the result with half the effort, but in order to avoid being discovered, it can be abandoned when necessary.

Wuying was always too eager when it came to treatment. "If it's just acupuncture treatment, how long will it take for the master to be able to stand up?"
