Childbearing system: The royal family is shocked to see their offspring wither away!

Chen Zhining nodded. He was not surprised by these royal secrets.

Anyway, he knew that the Queen was the Ninth Prince's biological mother.

So the rest is nothing strange.

"By the way, have you found the murderer who framed you and Li last time?"

"What has the Queen been investigating recently?"

"...I guess they found it, but the Queen didn't say it explicitly. I guess she has her own plans."

Chen Zhining smiled, gently patted Princess Duan's hand, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, anyway, since it hasn't been made clear, let's just wait and see."

As they were talking, Lingdao came over and bowed to them.

"My Lady Princesses, the Queen, and Princess Pingnan, please sit closer to the little princess and the young prince."

"When the time comes to issue the decree, you can just hold the little princess and the little prince in your arms."

After all, for such a matter of requesting a title, it would be more in accordance with the rules to let Chen Zhining hold the little princess and the young prince.

As the biological mother of the little princess and the young prince, she naturally has to participate in these important occasions.

Chen Zhining smiled and nodded, then he and Princess Duan immediately sat closer to Princess Pingnan.

The Princess of England, the Princess of Cheng, and the Crown Princess did not sit close to each other, but sat on their own.

Princess Cheng sat behind Concubine Xian. Concubine Xian picked up a teacup and bumped it with Concubine Cheng. Then she whispered, "...Have you asked someone to prepare it?"

Princess Cheng nodded, and then they looked up at where Chen Zhining and the others were gathered.

Chen Zhining and Princess Duan had just sat down when Princess Pingnan next to them was suddenly bumped by a palace maid.

The wine in Princess Pingnan's cup spilled directly into the little princess's cradle.

Before coming, Zhou specially prepared some jewelry for the two little ones to wear, including a jade pendant with a phoenix pattern on it for the little princess.

The jade pendant worn on the little princess' neck was soaked by the wine. It was freezing cold in winter. The little princess seemed uncomfortable and hummed twice.

"..."

Everyone was stunned, and then looked at Princess Pingnan.

Princess Pingnan twitched her lips awkwardly, turned her head to look at Chen Zhining apologetically and said with a smile: "Um... Princess, I'm sorry."

"Mother, I will ask someone to prepare a new swaddling cloth and wash the little princess."

After saying that, Princess Pingnan stood up and went to the Queen's side hall with the palace maid beside her to change the little princess's swaddling clothes into a clean one.

Chen Zhining glanced at the little princess' swaddling clothes very calmly. He saw the little princess with a red mole on her brow, staring at Chen Zhining with her big round eyes, babbling and stretching out her little arms, as if she wanted Chen Zhining to hold her.

Chen Zhining couldn't help but smile, and then said to the queen.

"Mother, I will follow the eldest princess and change the swaddling clothes for the little princess."

After saying that, Chen Zhining followed Princess Pingnan to the side hall.

Seeing them leave, the queen smiled gently and said, "Pingnan is really too clumsy. Don't worry about it. Just continue eating and drinking."

After saying that, she turned her head and looked at Lingdao, whispering a few words.

Ling Dao was stunned for a moment, then immediately nodded and followed Princess Pingnan and the others out.

Princess Cheng and Consort Xian laughed and said, "This wine contains poison. If it is sprinkled on the little princess, she will surely die of the poison within three days."

"If she drinks it, it will definitely be faster..."

"It's a shame the poison isn't that strong."

"But since it has already been sprinkled on the little princess, she will definitely die. Princess Pingnan can't deny this."

"Naturally."

Concubine Xian gave a strange smile.

Even if the Queen and Princess Pingnan were careful, the little princess was still poisoned.

"...You can rest assured to leave this matter to Princess Pingnan. After all, it was surprising that she was so close to the little princess at the beginning."

"Even if it's Princess Pingnan and the little princess, they look alike, but what's the point? The little princess was poisoned after all."

"Since he was poisoned, then the rest...cannot be denied."

As she spoke, she and Princess Cheng looked at each other and smiled strangely.

……

A side hall of Fengning Palace.

When Princess Pingnan saw Chen Zhining catching up with her, she said a little embarrassedly, "Princess, what happened today... is my fault. I'm afraid the little princess caught a cold."

"It's winter now. If she catches a cold, it won't be good for her. I'm really sorry."

Chen Zhining was delighted. He didn't expect that the arrogant eldest princess would actually apologize to him. It seemed that she really liked little Zhaojia.

If she didn't like it, she would have been gloating when she saw Zhao Jia being splashed with wine.

But she felt...the palace maid accidentally bumped into Princess Pingnan.

It's also somewhat wrong.

Chen Zhining smiled and ordered Feicui who was standing beside him, "Feicui, go and pull over the maid who bumped into Princess Pingnan. Fine her one month's salary!"

Princess Pingnan nodded, but she didn't think too much about it. "Of course she should be fined one month's salary. She is so rude, she must be punished."

"My queen mother is too lenient to others, which causes the maids under her to have no rules at all!"

Chen Zhining smiled and said, "Of course it's not just a fine on their salaries, Princess."

The princess was stunned when she heard what Chen Zhining said. She was a little unresponsive for a while: "...Ah, Princess, what do you mean by this?"

Chen Zhining smiled and said nothing.

Princess Pingnan blinked her eyes and entered the side hall. Perhaps only then did she understand what Chen Zhining meant.

She couldn't help but asked in surprise: "...You mean, that maid wanted to frame me?!"

Chen Zhining nodded, "I'm afraid that's what he meant."

"That wine is probably not simple... or the new swaddling clothes that will be presented later may also contain something special."

"...!!!"

"But how could someone be so bold! To dare to frame this princess?!"

"This princess is the legitimate daughter of the Empress Dowager, and is the eldest daughter of His Majesty!"

Chen Zhining smiled and said, "How can this be the same? If it was just Her Royal Highness the Princess, she would not dare to do it, and Her Royal Highness the Princess doesn't have any enemies."

"But the person you are holding in your arms is Chang'an."
