Su Yun saw that Bai Ruiji seemed to be deep in thought, and when he thought about what the two little palace maids had said today, he felt that it made sense.

Bai Ruiji was thinking about it when Su Yun spoke again, "My Lord, you don't know. It was Hai Lan who came up with the idea that Concubine Chun could be made a concubine. The two of them have always been good friends. My Lord, do you think it could be the case?"

Su Yun had said half of his words when Bai Ruiji automatically completed the sentence.

Hai Lan is good friends with Concubine Chun Su Lujun. Since Hai Lan can murder the royal heir, Su Lujun cannot be a good person either.

Maybe Su Lujun's words about eating fish and shrimp were a conspiracy.

But why did Su Lujun want to harm Bai Ruiji's child?

Su Yun glanced at Bai Ruiji and continued, "The eldest prince's biological mother is no longer around, so he was given to Concubine Chun to raise. Concubine Chun not only has a biological son, but also the eldest prince, who is the eldest son of a concubine and an adopted son. The prince born by the master is the first son after the emperor ascended the throne, and he is a noble son. Doesn't this block Concubine Chun's way?"

Hearing this, Bai Ruiji stood up in an instant, rushed into the inner room, found the whip and rushed out.

Su Yun waited for a few moments before chasing out of the hall.

In Zhongcui Palace, Su Lujun was talking to Ke Xin when they heard exclamations from outside.

A moment later, a figure rushed in.

By the time Su Lujun reacted, she had already been whipped.

Su Lujun screamed, and Ke Xin stood in front of Su Lujun and said, "Empress Mei, what are you doing? Our master is a concubine..."

Before Ke Xin could finish her words, she was whipped.

Then, Bai Ruiji waved the whip and kept whipping Su Lujun and Ke Xin, the master and servant.

Ke Xin was beaten the most in the front and was even whipped on the face.

Su Lujun was fine, she just got a little twitching on her arms and legs, but it was still painful enough to make her unbearable.

Su Lujun shouted, "Princess Mei, why are you crazy!?"

Bai Ruiji kept whipping the whip in her hand and sneered, "Am I crazy? You dare to harm my child, I will kill you on the spot."

Su Lujun was somewhat puzzled, dodging Bai Ruiji's whip and replied, "I didn't."

Bai Ruiji didn't listen at all until she knocked Ke Xin unconscious, then she stopped.

Su Lujun huddled in the corner, looking at Bai Ruiji fearfully, and said, "You, please stop hitting me. I really didn't harm your child."

Bai Ruiji lifted Su Lujun's chin with a whip and said in a cold voice: "Didn't you say that eating fish and shrimp would be good for the fetus in your womb and would give birth to a smart prince?"

Su Lujun crossed her arms and replied, "I did say that, and I also heard it from others."

Bai Ruiji sneered, "Listen to what others say, listen to what Ruyi said, right? You really went to great lengths to harm my child."

Su Lujun thought about it, but couldn't remember who told her that.

Seeing that Su Lujun didn't say anything, Bai Ruiji thought she agreed, so she whipped Su Lujun on the head again.

Afterwards, Bai Ruiji pulled back the whip and said, "Su Lujun, you killed my child, so I will make your child pay with his life!"

Pay with your life! Su Lujun looked at Bai Ruiji in horror.

Hailan murdered the heir to the throne and was executed yesterday. All nine members of Hailan's clan will be beheaded at the Meridian Gate one month later.

Under such severe punishment, Bai Ruiji actually said such words.

Su Lujun thought of Bai Ruiji's identity. Bai Ruiji was born into a family of musicians in the Nan Mansion and had no family to rely on.

But Su Lujun tried her best to think about it, but she couldn't figure out who told her that eating fish and shrimp could help her conceive a boy.
