After rebirth, the Prime Minister's wife always wanted to leave her father behind and keep her

What kind of decree requires the Seventh Princess to personally convey it?

Wang Quangang and Wang Changsheng knelt down hurriedly. Cui Yuanqing also lifted up his robe and knelt beside Cheng Songan, leaning against her shoulders.

Only Lu Qingshan stood there in a daze, causing the palace maids and eunuchs to look at him sideways.

Wang Changsheng quickly pulled him, and Lu Qingshan finally reacted and knelt down.

The Seventh Princess unfolded the yellow silk and said in a pretentious tone, "The daughter of the Cheng family is gentle, kind, prudent and prudent. You were young and wanted her, but you broke the promise halfway through. How could you bear to betray my kindness like this? Now I am grateful for your regret and I will allow Cheng to be the Imperial Female Teacher and grant her the marriage contract. I hope you will cultivate your virtue in the future so as not to disappoint me."

After reading it, he said to Cui Yuanqing meaningfully, "Sir, you asked me to keep this edict for more than a month. Now it is returned to its original owner. I hope you will not let down the emperor's grace and my teacher."

The Seventh Princess was still young and had a clear voice, but she pretended to be mature and lowered her voice, which seemed a bit deliberate. The eunuchs and maids in the palace who came with her had already covered their mouths and laughed, while the people in the prison were only focused on the content of the edict and could not laugh.

This decree was a secret decree given by the emperor to Cui Yuanqing alone more than a month ago. It had nothing to do with state affairs, but when it was brought out at this time, it changed its meaning.

Even when the Cheng family was in trouble, the saint still approved the marriage between the Cui and Cheng families and promoted Cui Yuanqing! Was this telling everyone that the Cheng family was fine?

But now the Cheng Mansion has already been sealed off, Cheng Zhongwen was imprisoned in the No. 1 prison cell, and all the female family members were detained in the women's prison. Even Cheng Yanping, who was far away in Lingnan, was detained nearby. The only one who was not implicated was the third girl in Yizhou, who was detained in the old house, and this was only for the sake of Old Master Cheng.

Wang Quangang couldn't guess the emperor's intention for a moment.

Cui Yuanqing received the imperial edict: "I obey your order!"

Wang Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief. He was naturally close to the Seventh Princess because she was in power. He hurriedly led her out and said, "The prison is filthy. Princess, please go to the government office and have a seat."

The Seventh Princess didn't dislike him. She pointed at Cheng Songan and said, "My master hasn't left yet, how can I leave by myself?"

Wang Changsheng quickly took the key from the jailer and rushed over to unlock Cheng Songan's shackles.

Cheng Songan still hadn't recovered from the imperial edict. No wonder he divorced her so easily. It turned out it was all just an appearance. He could take out the imperial edict at any time to prove their status as husband and wife.

"Wait!" Wang Quangang tried to stop him. He still remembered King Jin's secret order, which was that Cheng's daughter must not be allowed to meet Cui Yuanqing, and she must not be allowed to leave the prison.

He frowned and said, "Since Lord Cui said that your wife is pregnant, words are not enough, we must verify the truth."

The Seventh Princess frowned and said to the person following behind her: "Doctor Sun, come and take Madam Cui's pulse!"

Doctor Sun leaned forward, took out a pulse pillow, and placed it on the medicine box. Using the cover of his wide robe sleeve, he placed it on her pulse and said, "Mrs. Cheng is indeed pregnant."

The Seventh Princess curled her lips and said to Wang Quangang, "How is it?"

Wang Quangang still did not give up and asked Doctor Sun, "May I ask how many months pregnant is Madam?"

Doctor Sun said without hesitation: "It's only been a month."

Wang Quangang smiled and said, "Although I am not a medical officer, I know a thing or two. It takes a month for a pregnant woman to feel her pulse. Madam Cheng was detained here ten days ago, so it was barely twenty days at that time. Could it be that Lord Cui had foreseen it?"

Although he was scheming, he climbed to his current position step by step with his real ability. Cui Yuanqing and Cheng Songan divorced nearly half a year ago, and he became the princess's teacher just a month ago. According to the imperial edict, her pregnancy would not exceed a month. What Doctor Sun said was correct, but there was a loophole.

Sure enough, Doctor Sun was startled and clenched his fists.

Cui Yuanqing looked calm and said to Wang Quangang, "Husband and wife are like soulmates."

Lu Qingshan's gloomy face gradually became relaxed. He said to Wang Quangang, "Sir Wang, Miss Cheng is the teacher of the Emperor's daughter. If you are so suspicious, won't it make the Seventh Princess lose face?"

When the Seventh Princess heard this, she immediately understood and became angry.

Wang Quangang looked respectful, knelt down and kowtowed, saying, "Seventh Princess, this matter is of great importance, and we need to be cautious. Even the imperial physicians in the palace can make mistakes sometimes, don't you think? How about inviting a few more doctors to consult together?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the confidant outside the door said, "Sir, I have asked all the doctors to come and diagnose Madam Cheng's pulse."

Cui Yuanqing's expression did not change. He just smiled faintly and said nothing.

But Cheng Songan, who was closest to him, saw it. His hand under his sleeve suddenly retracted. It was obvious that he was a little uneasy. He had not discussed this matter with the saint.

Wang Quangang had come over with a few doctors and looked at Cheng Songan silently.

Cheng Songan clenched his fists and slowly stretched out his arms.

Cui Yuanqing held her hand and said coldly, "Who is qualified to take my wife's pulse?"

Only then did Wang Quangang feel relieved. Cui Yuanqing actually dared to instigate the Seventh Princess to commit the crime of deceiving the emperor. It was now a handle that was delivered to his doorstep, so he couldn't blame him!

He raised his eyebrows: "Master Cui, are you feeling guilty?"

Without waiting for Cui Yuanqing to react, he pulled Cheng Songan's sleeve and pressed it on the medicine box. A perceptive doctor quickly put his finger on the pulse.

He was originally caught from the clinic temporarily, and thought that he had committed some crime. Now he saw that he was really checking the pulse of a criminal woman, so he did not think much about it and said, "Congratulations to this lady, she is indeed pregnant."

There was total silence in the silent cell.

It was Wang Quangang who first broke the silence. He pushed the doctor aside and said to the others, "You guys, come too!"

Cui Yuanqing was even more nervous than before. His clenched hands were shaking slightly, and his chest was rising and falling uncontrollably. He didn't dare to look at Cheng Songan who was also in disbelief. He just said to the other doctors, "You, check them all!"

Cheng Songan stood there in a daze like a puppet, allowing doctors to take her pulse one after another. Each doctor gave the same answer after taking her pulse. Even Doctor Sun, who was just there for formality, took her pulse again carefully before he was sure that Cheng Songan was really pregnant.

Wang Quangang didn't expect this result. He stood there awkwardly and embarrassed, not saying a word.

Wang Changsheng was the most perceptive. He immediately bowed to the people and said, "Congratulations to Mr. Cui, Madam Cheng, and the Seventh Princess. It's a great joy! Quick, remove Madam Cheng's shackles."

Even if Wang Quangang wanted to stop him, he had no reason to do so, and looked at Lu Qingshan for help, but Lu Qingshan seemed to have been distracted and became distraught again, and quietly left the cell.

Cui Yuanqing was so surprised that he almost overflowed. The murderous aura around him dissipated. He was too lazy to argue with Wang Quangang. He picked up Cheng Songan and carried him horizontally, and walked out of the cell carefully.

Cheng Songan was in mixed feelings. Since her last miscarriage, she had studied some medical knowledge from the doctor and had a basic understanding of taking pulses. During the past month, she had taken her own pulse many times but had never found any signs of pregnancy. Only during the ten days in prison had she not thought about it again, and unexpectedly, the child came.

But it seems to come at the wrong time.
