Bai Yueguang, the stand-in for Prince Sick Jiao

The night was desolate, and the prosperity of the capital came to an end. From nowhere, a black-feathered bird jumped up, fluttered its wings, swept across the tall buildings and long streets, plunged into the quiet courtyard, and finally landed on Mo Shu's arm.

He took the letterhead and immediately opened the door and went in.

"Young master, there is news."

Ling Qingyan raised his head from the desk, and took the letterhead, which only said one sentence: He has left Beijing.

The letter did not specify who "he" was, but Cai Wenbin once said that every time he went to find Cai Yuan, he always felt that there was a third pair of eyes in the room.At first, he thought it was just an illusion, but it wasn't until later that he realized that there was indeed an extra person in the Cai family.

As for who that person was, Cai Wenbin didn't know, but he could tell from Cai Yuan's cautiousness—that person's identity was definitely not simple.

"Cai Yuan sent people out of the city overnight. I guess something happened." Ling Qingyan put away the letter and asked again, "Is there any news from Tongzhou?"

Mo Shu said: "Except for Shen Shizi who has no news, the rest of the people have returned to the Yamen. Wen Sheng took people to the mountain to search several times, but there is no trace of Shen Shizi."

Ling Qingyan frowned subconsciously: "Wasn't Wen Sheng always by Shen Chao's side? Why did you get separated?"

"Shizi Shen wanted to find the stone room Song Yinian went to before he died, so he separated from Wen Sheng. Although there is no news yet, no news is the best news."

Ling Qingyan was still worried: "He has been away from Beijing for half a month, if he doesn't come back, I'm worried that even if he finds out the truth, he won't have a chance to tell it."

Mo Shu was puzzled: "How could it be? Shen Shizi went here to investigate Song Yinian at His Majesty's will. Even though Song Yinian is dead, what he left behind will definitely prove the prince's innocence."

"It is precisely because of what Song Yinian left behind that Shen Chao was assassinated."

As soon as Shen Xuhuai arrived in Tongzhou, Song Yinian fled with his money. This move was tantamount to calling himself out.

Song Yinian knew that he was useless, so he left clues. In this way, he could not only severely damage the Cai family, but also lead the disaster to Shen Xuhuai.People die, but they leave a lot of trouble behind.

Now the Cai family is making frequent moves, fearing that something will happen, no matter whether Shen Xuhuai finds out the truth or not, he must come back.

Ling Qingyan pondered for a moment, then said: "Send a letter to Wen Sheng, asking him to find Shen Chao as soon as possible and return to Beijing immediately."

"Yes."

On the fifth day of Shen Xuhuai's disappearance, the news of Concubine Yu's pregnancy spread from the palace. Everyone was surprised and expected.

Others might not see His Majesty for three years after entering the palace, but Cai Fuya was the only one who was always favored as soon as she entered the palace. Although the other concubines in the harem had complaints, they did not dare to bring it out to the public. After all, there was the Cai family behind her. support.

Now that the Changchun Palace is happy, it has almost established Cai Fuya's position in the harem. If a prince is born, who can beat her in this palace in the future?
The concubines were unwilling, but envied her good luck.

In the eyes of the concubine, being pregnant is a supreme honor, but Cai Fuya was so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat.

The Tai Hospital would come to ask for a Ping An pulse every three days, but this month her sunflower water was delayed, and she thought it was just because of drinking too much medicine, but she didn't expect to be pregnant?

At this moment, Fang Fei had already left, and it was the father-in-law of Chengming Palace who called her away in person. Two hours had passed, and she still hadn't come back.

Fu Xiuyun sent Fang Fei to the Changchun Palace to wait on her, just to watch her drink the soup after going to bed every time, but now she is pregnant, what will happen to Fang Fei?
Cai Fuya trembled slightly and closed her eyes, not daring to think about it.

She gently stroked her lower abdomen, and seemed to feel a faint heartbeat. She also thought that she would have a child in the future, but now that she is in prison, she can't protect herself, so how can she talk about children?
She is just a pawn to pave the way for the Cai family, Fu Xiuyun will not let her give birth to a child, and being pregnant at this time is just a bondage for her.

Unknowingly her eyes were red, Cai Fuya hugged her arms helplessly, tears silently slid down her cheeks into her arms.

Not long after, a maid came in from outside the palace, saluted respectfully, and said: "Your Majesty, my maidservant is called Yuewei, and I will stay in Changchun Palace to serve you in the future. If you have anything to do, just ask your maidservant."

Cai Fuya calmed down, her voice was a little hoarse: "Where's Fang Fei?"

Yue Wei bowed her head: "Go back to your mother, Fang Fei is not well served, she has already been sent to the Department of Criminal Justice."

Entering the Department of Criminal Justice is like dying. With Fu Xiuyun's methods, Fang Fei will not be able to survive.

Cai Fuya's eyes were lax: "Will your Majesty come?"

Hearing this, Yue Wei couldn't help but glance at her more, and then said: "Your Majesty is discussing state affairs with the ministers in the Palace of Political Affairs at this time, and will come to see your empress later."

There was no expression on her face, like a walking dead, and even the remaining fear disappeared.

Fang Fei is dead, so it's her turn next, right?

Cai Fuya thought sadly.

From the day she entered the palace, she knew that her grandfather would not give up easily, not only wanted her to enter the palace as a concubine, but also wanted her to give birth to a prince, and then what?Is it the position of queen, or the position of prince?

The sunlight coming in from the window covered the floor with golden light, Cai Fuya stared at the place in a daze, her eyes were very dark, she even wondered, could all this end only if she died?
This idea only flashed in her mind for a moment, but then it took root, spreading wildly in her heart like weeds growing wantonly.

until……

Until she picked up the sharp scissors and intended to poke her lower abdomen, someone grabbed her wrist.

"It is a serious crime for a concubine to kill herself. If you want to die, I can give you a three-foot white silk now!"

The scissors fell to the ground with a bang.

Cai Fuya suddenly came back to her senses, seeing Fu Xiuyun's gloomy face, the coldness in her eyes made her heart skip a beat.

Fu Xiuyun glanced down at her flat belly, and said with a sneer, "Cai Yuan put all his heart and soul into sending you to the palace, just for today, right? Every time I see you acting reluctantly, I think you are innocent, I didn't expect that even you were lying to me!"

The strength in his hands increased, as if he wanted to crush Cai Fuya's wrist.

Tears of "pain" rolled down from her eyes, she tried to break free, but was grabbed even tighter.

Fu Xiuyun sneered: "Don't think that if you look a little like Yu'er, I will always pamper you! It's not enough for Cai Yuan to kill Yu'er, and he wants you to be in the middle palace. It's wishful thinking!"

He saw Cai Fuya's teary eyes and shook his hand away in disgust.

Cai Fuya was unsteady for a moment, and fell down on the bed, black hair and tears fell down together, she stood up in embarrassment, without saying a word of excuse.

He said that it was his grandfather who forced his little aunt to death.

But grandfather clearly loves his aunt the most, so how could he be willing to let her die?

Cai Fuya bit her lip and sobbed, feeling a dull pain in her abdomen.

"The Cai family wants to embrace the prince and stand on their own feet, but I won't let you do what you want!" Fu Xiuyun clasped her chin, his eyes turned scarlet, "You want to die, but I don't want to kill you, but I can't keep the child in your belly."

Cai Fuya couldn't stop trembling all over, she saw Mr. Li coming in from the outside with a black concoction and brought it to her.

"Your Majesty, the envoy of Yao Yuan personally prescribed this prescription. It will heal after a while. You should drink it quickly."

The unpleasant smell of the medicine lingered on the tip of the nose, and there was a churning in the stomach. Just as he took the medicine bowl, he loosened his hand, and the medicine juice spilled all over the floor. Cai Fuya couldn't help but retched while leaning on the edge of the bed.

Fu Xiuyun looked at her indifferently: "Do you think you can escape by breaking the medicine bowl?" Then, he turned to look at Mr. Li, "Go and bring another bowl of medicine, if she can't drink it by herself , you help her drink it!"

Manager Li didn't dare to hesitate, he hurried down and filled the medicine again.

Cai Fuya struggled to get up, with a desperate and numb expression: "I drink it myself. But I beg Your Majesty to spare my father and brother."

Fu Xiuyun didn't respond, just stared at her coldly.

Cai Fuya stretched out her hand with difficulty, took over the medicine bowl, and closed her eyes in pain, unexpectedly, just as she touched the edge of the bowl, someone came from outside the door to report:

"His Majesty, Shen Shizi has returned to Beijing."
