Chapter 480 Doubt (2)
Yan Wushuang has always felt that Yuxi's behavior is not in line with common sense, but she can't say what is wrong. The news he got this time made him feel that Yuchen should know the reason, but he didn't confess.
Yan Wushuang stopped making circles with Yuchen, and asked directly: "The Lord of Heshou County met you before she died. What did she tell you?" Yan Wushuang was very familiar with the Lord of Heshou County. Because it was Lord Heshou County who allowed Zhou Xuan to escape that year. If Zhou Xuan died, he would not show up so soon.
Yuchen froze when he heard this.
Yan Wushuang looked at Yuchen expressionlessly, and said, "What Heshou told you, tell me every word."
Yuchen lowered his voice and said: "He Shou said that Yuxi, like her, has the ability to predict the future. She said these words just to put Yuxi to death." If Yuxi was in the capital at that time, she would definitely be waited by the emperor. People circle up. But Yuxi is in the northwest, and there are many people around her to protect her, so the emperor can't do anything to Yuxi.
Yan Wushuang's pupils shrank, but soon became confused again. If Han Yuxi really has the ability to predict, it is impossible to almost die several times: "Han Yuxi has the ability to predict the future?"
Yuchen shook his head and said: "No. If Yuxi had the ability to predict, she would not be married to Chen Ran and cause death, let alone marry Yun Qing. Besides, if she really had the ability to predict, she would not He might have been assassinated." Although Yuxi is doing well now, it was extremely dangerous before.
After a moment of silence, Yan Wushuang said, "Apart from these, what else did He Shou tell you?"
Yuchen said: "She said that I could become the queen of the mother's world, but because she intervened to save the nine princes at that time, it changed the trajectory of my life."
Yan Wushuang knew the reason why Yuchen was so obedient today: "Tomorrow you can enter the palace to see your son."
Yuchen gave a salute and said, "Thank you, my lord." Although he could see his son, he didn't feel any joy in his heart.
Back in the yard, Yuchen shuddered several times. It was windy outside for a long time, and it was probably cold.
Nanny Gui hurriedly brought her a bowl of brown sugar and ginger tea, and after Yuchen finished drinking, she said, "The water has been put in, your mother should go take a bath!"
While taking a bath, Yuchen suddenly asked Nanny Gui something: "I remember receiving a letter from Yurong last time, saying that she was pregnant. I don't know if the baby is a boy or a girl?" The last time Han Jingyan told Wen After Shi came to persuade her to remarry, she didn't want to have anything to do with the Han family anymore, so she didn't let anyone inquire about Yu Rong's news.
Nanny Gui shook her head and said, "This old slave doesn't know very well either. If the empress wants to know, just ask someone to find out."
Yuchen shook his head and said, "No, I'll ask my cousin when she comes over." She was afraid that asking about Yurong now would make Yan Wushuang suspicious. For Yan Wushuang, Yuchen was very careful. This person's thoughts are too deep, she'd better be careful.
Seeing that Zhou Yan had lost a lot of weight when he arrived in the palace, Yuchen felt distressed, and asked Qin Nanny who was serving Zhou Yan: "Why did Your Highness lose so much weight?" Qin Nanny was Yuchen's choice to take care of Zhou Yan. Except for Nanny Qin, everyone around Zhou Yan was also chosen by Yuchen. This is also to guard against people with malicious intentions around her who will speak ill of her and provoke their mother and child.
Mother Qin said: "Recently, Your Highness studies until midnight every day, and gets up before dawn to study his homework, so he has lost a lot of weight. Madam, this old servant has persuaded me many times, but unfortunately Your Highness didn't listen."
Yuchen touched Zhou Yan's face and said, "Yan'er, reading is a good thing, but it shouldn't damage your health." In fact, Yuchen wanted Zhou Yan to practice martial arts, but Yan Wushuang didn't agree.
Zhou Yan shook his head and said, "Mother, I'm not tired."
Yuchen took out the clothes she made for Zhou Yan and said with a smile, "Come on,
This is the clothes your mother made for you, see if you like it? "Yuchen's embroidery is not very good, it took a lot of time to make this dress.
Zhou Yan took a look and nodded, "I like it."
The mother and son didn't get along for a long time, and after having lunch with Zhou Yan, Yuchen went back to Prince Yan's mansion.
Two days later, Mrs. Zhao, Mrs. Qingpinghou, came to visit Yuchen. Hearing Yuchen asked about Yurong, Mrs. Zhao said with a smile: "Jiang Er's mother-in-law gave birth to a son, who is said to weigh more than seven catties. Mrs. Jiang is overjoyed. If the child is not still in Henan, he must be growing up." It's done." Yurong gave birth at the end of August, and the confinement period happened to be the hottest time.
What Yuchen really wanted to know was not news about Yurong, but about Jiang Hongjin. In fact, Yuchen chose to forget what Rihe Shou said to her that day. But Yan Wushuang's words brought back memories. Yuchen frowned and asked, "Yurong and the child are in Henan, isn't Second Master Jiang going to bring their mother and child back?"
Mrs. Zhao said: "Your Majesty doesn't know that Jiang Erye offended someone in Luoyang and returned to the capital after being disfigured." Jiang Hongjin is not a big shot, but his father is the Minister of the Household Department, so his sudden return naturally attracted many people. s concern. Disfigurement is such a big thing, just pay attention to it.
Yuchen's heart skipped a beat, and he said, "Disfigured?"
Mrs. Zhao nodded and said: "But I heard that it has been cured, leaving only some scars." After a pause, Mrs. Zhao said in a low voice, "I heard that the person behind the scenes gave Jiang Erye medicine to make him inhumane! The news that Jiang Er's nǎinǎi gave birth to a big fat boy spread back to the capital, and the rumors dissipated." There is a good saying that good things don't go out and bad things spread thousands of miles. Luoyang is far away from the capital, but these things still spread back to the capital. However, as soon as the rumor spread, Mrs. Jiang came forward and said that Yurong was pregnant, and the rumor was self-defeating.
When Yuchen heard this, he suddenly remembered what He Shou said before he died. He Shou said that Yuxi was married to Jiang Hongjin in her previous life, but Jiang Hongjin didn't like her, and he didn't consummate the marriage with her when they got married. Thinking of this, Yuchen pinched the palm of his hand with his nails, and used the pain to force himself to calm down: "Cousin, have you found the person behind this scene?"
Mrs. Zhao shook her head and said, "No. After all, Luoyang is not the capital, and the Jiang family doesn't have enough power there." Even if the Jiang family finds out who is behind the scenes, it is impossible for outsiders to know.
Yuchen's heart was already overwhelmed, but he still kept a smile on his face. Except for Nanny Gui, no one else, including Mrs. Zhao, noticed anything strange about her.
Zhao asked Yuchen: "Yuchen, I heard that several people in the palace are pregnant?" Yuchen was Yan Wushuang's favorite but she was not pregnant, which made her suspicious.
Yuchen smiled and said, "Both Yu's sisters are pregnant." Although Yuchen was the highest-status woman in the backyard of Prince Yan's Mansion, the housekeeper Tang was taking care of the affairs of the inner courtyard. Yuchen knew in his heart that Yan Wushuang didn't trust her at all, so how could he let her manage the backyard.
Mrs. Zhao grabbed Yuchen's hand and said, "Then you have to hold on tight!" After finishing speaking, Mrs. Zhao hurriedly explained: "This is what father-in-law meant. Father-in-law said that only if you give birth to an heir to the prince, can you protect the prince in the future." You can live with His Highness." Although Zhou Yan was canonized as the emperor's younger brother, he was in a very dangerous situation.
Yuchen smiled reluctantly, and said: "There is no rush for this matter, let it take its course!" Whether she is really thinking about her and Yan'er's good or for the Jiang family's sake, Yuchen doesn't want to pursue it anymore, anyway, she is Not ready to have children.
Seeing this, Mrs. Zhao thought that Yuchen also wanted a child but couldn't conceive. Immediately, he took out a piece of paper from his sleeve, handed it to Yuchen, and said, "This is the prescription I used before, you can try it too." The Zhao family gave birth to a girl first, and later found this prescription. Two sons were born in succession.
Yuchen took it with both hands, and said gratefully: "Thank you, sister-in-law." When King Jing was still there, Yuchen also searched for a few prescriptions to have a baby, but unfortunately he didn't get pregnant. Thinking back now, it was fortunate that I was not pregnant at the time, and if I were pregnant with the child, I would not be able to keep the child.
After seeing off Mrs. Zhao, Yuchen went back to the house, leaning on the bed, his mind was so messed up that he couldn't organize his thoughts clearly. Jiang Hongjin insisted on marrying Yurong at the beginning because he had unreasonable thoughts about her, so he was unwilling to consummate the house on the night of their marriage. If Yuxi hadn't been adopted, Jiang Hongjin would definitely propose to marry Yuxi according to the order, and her father's character would definitely not refuse this marriage. Therefore, what He Shou said may be true.
Seeing Yuchen changing again and again, Nanny Gui hurriedly asked, "Ma'am, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Yuchen said in a mosquito-like voice: "Mommy, I suspect that the person who disfigured Jiang Hongjin was Yuxi." He Shou said that Yuxi was weak and incompetent in her previous life, and she suffered a lot of grievances when she married into Jiang's family. Now that Jiang Hongjin was suddenly inhumane and disfigured by a mysterious person, Yuchen suspected that this mysterious person was Yuxi, and Yuxi wanted to avenge her previous life. Although this idea is absurd, but this idea seems the most reasonable.
Nanny Gui was taken aback, and said in a low voice, "How could it be Fourth Aunt's nǎinǎi? She has no grievances with Fifth Aunt, why did she do such a murderous thing?"
Yuchen believed that Nanny Gui would not speak freely, and at this time she really wanted to confide in someone. Immediately, Yuchen told Nanny Gui everything that He Shou had said to her: "I suspect that Yuxi is taking revenge?" Yuxi must have suffered a lot in her previous life, and now that she is capable in this life, she will seek revenge from Jiang Hongjin .
Nanny Gui was so frightened that her legs were a little weak: "So, fourth aunt's nǎinǎi is really the same kind of person as the Lord Heshou County?" After living an extra life, isn't that a monster!
Yuchen shook his head and said: "This is just my guess. It is not certain whether it was Yuxi's hands. Maybe he offended someone in Luoyang and was retaliated by others!" Yuxi has been very cautious in recent years and has not made any mistakes. Something weird and amazing. Saying that she is a monster, except for those with ulterior motives, normal people would not believe it.
Nanny Gui quickly calmed down and said, "Mother, we can't tell about this, let alone let the prince know." Once Yan Wushuang knew about this, he would definitely use it to attack Yuxi. But Yuxi's position in the northwest is as solid as a rock, and these things will not cause her any loss.
It's not that Nanny Gui's conscience realizes that she doesn't want to bring trouble to Yuxi, but because of Yuxi's temperament that she must take revenge. She would bear it before if she had no power or power, but now that she has power, if she offended her, she would definitely come back with revenge. And they couldn't bear Yuxi's revenge.
Yuchen shook her head and said, "I won't say it." If she wanted to say it, she would have said it a long time ago, and she wouldn't wait until now. (to be continued)
