Chapter 160: With such a big green hat hanging on my grave, I have to come back to see it
"The things are in this king's private vault. No one is allowed to touch them."
Xiao Yunjin emphasized that anyone was a warning to those who thought too much and guessed incorrectly.
He walked to the backyard and dismissed everyone except Cang Shu. "Princess, how are you?"
"The fetus is unstable and has been under treatment." Cang Shu told the truth. He had always known that the princess's child was not his, but why did he feel that it was all the prince's fault?
Arriving at the backyard, Xiao Yunjin didn't stop and walked straight into the yard. "Wait here, I will talk to the princess."
Cang Shu stopped and said, "Yes."
The servants in the yard knelt on the ground and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty."
The voice was very loud, as if it was specifically meant to remind the people in the room, but Xiao Yunjin didn't care. He walked past everyone and pushed open the door.
Jiang Wanning was supported by someone. She was wearing a pink gauze dress. She looked very weak. Her belly was covered by the red gauze, so it was not very obvious. "Greetings, Your Majesty."
Xiao Yunjin sat down at the main seat and said, "Everyone, leave."
Jiang Wanning was used to being domineering in the mansion, and she didn't dare to provoke Xiao Yunjin at this moment. She let go of the maid's hand and stood up obediently, "My lord, it's great that you can come back."
"I heard that the princess is pregnant with my posthumous child. With such a big green hat hanging on my grave, I have to come back to take a look."
Jiang Wanning had already thought of a countermeasure. As soon as Xiao Yunjin finished speaking, her tears fell, "Prince, you can't come back and frame me based on hearsay. We have been married for many years. We are in love with each other, but at least we respect each other. You are forcing me to die!"
What a loving couple, what a respectful couple they are. Xiao Yunjin felt sick when he saw Jiang Wanning's sad face. It was either they were having an affair without a matchmaker or they were in cahoots with each other. Xiao Yunjin didn't believe that Jiang Wanning didn't know about it.
"Since this prince has misunderstood, then according to the time, the baby is now fully term, and the due date is tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. This prince has returned just in time."
Jiang Wanning shuddered unconsciously. Xiao Yunjin was actually going to force her to give birth prematurely. "Your Majesty, some pregnancies will be postponed for some time. I heard the bad news suddenly. I didn't take good care of myself, and the fetus is too small."
As she spoke, Jiang Wanning started to cry again, "Your Majesty, you haven't come back for many days. Are you going to hold me accountable now? I know you definitely don't believe me, but I am innocent!"
"Don't cry, you're pregnant after all. They say a mother is strong. How can you not cherish her like this?"
Xiao Yunjin didn't have time to listen to her crying, "I have to go to the palace to report. Since your pregnancy is not right, I will invite a few more doctors to take good care of you. After all, he is my son, and there must not be any loss."
Jiang Wanning gritted her teeth. Xiao Yunjin was forcing her to give birth prematurely. Last time at the Princess' place, it was He Yuncheng who helped her bribe the imperial physician. Now that the imperial physician had arrived, she could no longer hide how many months she was pregnant.
Xiao Yunjin is not dead, but he has not been to Beijing in the past few months. So the child will not be his by any means. Even if she is the daughter of King Huaiyang, she can't expect to get anything good out of it.
If she had known that Xiao Yunjin was not dead, she would not have seduced He Yuncheng. Now she has ended up like this.
Xiao Yunjin didn't care what she thought. Anyway, this child had nothing to do with him. His goal today had been achieved, so he didn't want to look at her any more. "You should have a good rest and take good care of the baby. I will go to the palace to report."
After saying that, Xiao Yunjin left, leaving Jiang Wanning to smash the house to pieces. She vented her anger and then called the new maid in, "Go, invite the prince to the He Mansion. The prince is back. Invite him to dinner."
The maid took the order and left. After the maid cleaned the room, Jiang Wanning asked someone to invite Cang Shu over.
She got straight to the point. "You've been helping me keep my baby safe for the past few months, and you've worked hard," she said as she lifted the red cloth on the table, revealing a tray full of gold ingots. "These are a reward for you."
Cang Shu knelt on the ground and said, "It is only my responsibility, I dare not take credit for it."
"The prince is back, and some things will definitely be investigated. This princess is the daughter of the King of Huaiyang, and no one dares to blame me, but the rest of the people don't know. Doctor Cang, what do you think?"
Cang Shu bowed his head, "It's up to the princess to order."
Jiang Wanning smiled, but her bright smile couldn't hide her hypocritical face. "I think today is a good day. Go and make arrangements!"
Cang Shu received Xiao Yunjin's order. It all depends on Jiang Wanning's choice. He just needs to execute it. At this time, he nodded and said, "Princess, you can ask the maid to boil a bowl of ginger soup first. When I order the prescription, you can boil a dose an hour in advance and take it at the time you want."
"This princess wants both mother and child to be safe," Jiang Wanning gently pushed the tray, "Do you understand?"
"Don't worry, Princess. This medicine is absolutely safe. It's just that the child...will be a little weaker."
A premature baby would naturally be weak, Jiang Wanning understood this, "Okay, leave now!"
As soon as Xiao Yunjin entered the palace, he was reprimanded by the emperor, who asked him what was going on with Linglang Pavilion.
Xiao Yunjin looked at the Second Prince, then at the Sixth Prince, and suddenly tore off his clothes, revealing the wound on his chest that had not yet healed.
"Father, I was chased by people all the way back from the northwest. One of them dropped a jade pendant. I checked and found out that it was sold by Linglang Pavilion. I was so angry that I surrounded Linglang Pavilion."
The emperor's pupils shrank slightly. Xiao Yunjin's chest was covered with a bunch of overlapping scars. A large part of these scars were because of him, because he had pushed people to high positions that were feared by everyone.
The emperor looked at the scars and softened his tone, "What did you find out?"
Seeing that the emperor's tone softened, Xiao Yunjin gathered his clothes and said, "Linglang Pavilion changed its owner two days ago." Xiao Yunjin knelt on the ground and said, "Father, you have to make the decision for your son."
"Get up first, I will investigate for you." The emperor took over the matter. "Since the owner has changed, you can't use your power to pressure others. Return the things you looted."
"Father, I spent money to buy those things." Xiao Yunjin stood up, "Who framed me?"
"Alright," the emperor shouldn't have asked this question, "Since you are injured, go back and rest first."
Xiao Yunjin knew when to stop. He buttoned up his clothes and asked the emperor for the imperial physician. Moreover, he asked for the imperial physicians from all over the Imperial Hospital, which made it clear that he did not trust Jiang Wanning.
The emperor understood. After all, anyone who escaped death and found out that his wife was pregnant would be suspicious. The emperor not only understood, he also supported her. After all, if Xiao Yunjin's relationship with Prince Huaiyang was really as strong as a rock, it would not be good for him.
The emperor agreed with a smile and gave a bunch of medicinal herbs as a reward. Xiao Yunjin accepted the reward and said goodbye to the emperor. He also greeted the two princes and said, "Second brother, sixth brother, I will leave first. We will meet again at the palace banquet the day after tomorrow."
"Third brother, take care."
"Third brother, take care."
Xiao Yunjin nodded, then took the imperial decree to the Imperial Medical Bureau to invite the imperial physician.
