They are all concubines, so of course they choose the future emperor.

Such a delicate bracelet is not sold in ordinary gold and silver shops, and it should be custom-made by a goldsmith.

These famous masters all have a little habit, which is to carve their own mark on an inconspicuous corner of the jewelry.

Just now, Jiang Wanyue touched a corner of the inside of the bracelet, where there was a small mark.

She actually recognized this mark!

It belongs to a famous goldsmith in Zhejiang.

This master is very famous in the south, but in the capital, he is far from being ranked.

So, isn’t this an easy guess?

Among the people in the palace, only Guan Rou's father was working in the south.

"She is a long-term thinker, but it's a pity that Liu'er is too impatient."

Jiang Wanyue muttered to herself in a low voice, then collected her scattered thoughts and patted Xiuchun on the shoulder.

"It's been a busy day, go to bed!"

After comforting Xiuchun, Jiang Wanyue put away the bracelet and returned to bed.

After sleeping for less than two hours, Prince Jing woke up, and Jiang Wanyue had no choice but to get up as well.

Prince Jing dressed and sat at the table in the outer room to have breakfast. Seeing Jiang Wanyue standing beside him, he waved at her.

"Sit down and eat together."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Jiang Wanyue bent her knees and sat opposite him.

She had just taken two bites when Prince Jing opposite her had already finished eating.

Prince Jing put down the bowl, took the tea handed to him by Rong An, rinsed his mouth, and suddenly spoke.

"What was in that purse yesterday? Where's that piece of paper?"

Jiang Wanyue paused what she was doing, raised her head, and looked embarrassed.

"Does the prince have to know?"

Prince Jing stared at her with burning eyes.

Jiang Wanyue bit her lip, put down her chopsticks, and pinched the corners of her clothes with both hands, feeling a little embarrassed and shy.

"It's... a prescription."

"prescription?"

Prince Jing was a little surprised.

Jiang Wanyue nodded and said in a low voice.

"I have always had irregular menstruation, a girl's problem, and it's not nice to tell others about it. I thought of using the prescription from my family, but I'm not sure about the specific dosage, so I asked Xiuchun to go outside the mansion to ask a doctor."

Prince Jing subconsciously glanced at Xiuchun.

Xiuchun knelt down hurriedly.

"Yesterday, I went to the Yu Clinic in the south of the city and asked the second doctor, Yu, the doctor in charge. Your Majesty, please order someone to check. Everything I said is true, not a single word is false."

Xiuchun is telling the truth.

She did go to Yu's Clinic to get a prescription.

However, what she didn't say was that after leaving the clinic, she went to a nearby alley to find a pharmacist and bought those contraceptive pills.

While Xiuchun was speaking, Jiang Wanyue stood up, walked to the bed, took out the purse from behind the pillow, took out the paper, turned around and handed it to Prince Jing.

Prince Jing waved his hand nonchalantly.

"If you feel unwell, go to the palace doctor. Aren't the doctors in the palace better than those outside?"

Jiang Wanyue bent her knees.

"Your Majesty is right. I will remember it."

Prince Jing seemed to ask casually and didn't care about it after he asked.

"You continue eating. I'm leaving first."

"Congratulations, Your Majesty."

Jiang Wanyue remained squatting in the posture of worship until Prince Shou walked away, then she stood up.

After finishing her breakfast, she called Xiuchun and walked towards the main courtyard.

After Liu'er was sent away, the other maids would be more restrained and would not go to search her room.

When they arrived at the main courtyard, the princess had not come out yet, and only Aunt Luo was there.

The two of them greeted each other politely and distantly. Not long after Jiang Wanyue sat down, Guan Rou and Xie Lanxi came in together.

Two people entered the door one after the other.

When Xie Lanxi saw Jiang Wanyue, her eyes widened instantly and she snorted.

"You come so early, you show off!"

Jiang Wanyue ignored her and turned to chat with Aunt Luo.

Aunt Luo obviously didn't like Xie Lanxi either. She would rather talk to Jiang Wanyue than pay any attention to her.

Soon, everyone arrived, even the pregnant Luo Qingqing came, and the princess came out from the inner room.

After a few words of casual chat, Guan Rou suddenly looked over here.

"I heard that the maid in Madam Jiang's room was kicked out of the house last night? I wonder what she did wrong? After all, she is your maid, even if she made a mistake, you can just give her a few words of punishment behind closed doors. Why is it so public? If you don't know, you would think that Madam Jiang is taking advantage of your power and is unforgiving!"

Jiang Wanyue raised her eyes and looked at the other person.

It seems that Guan Rou found out late, and she only knew that Liu'er was kicked out, but she didn't know the reason behind it.

Jiang Wanyue stroked the teacup lid slowly and leisurely.

"Liu'er has only been with me for a few days. How can she be considered as someone in my room?"

Guan Rou covered her mouth with a handkerchief: "Madam Jiang, what you said is so cold. After all, I have served you. How can you not think of the master-servant relationship at all? Could it be that Liu Er discovered some secret? That's why you are like this?"

Jiang Wanyue took a sip of tea and didn't respond.

Guan Rou's eyes flickered and she wanted to continue testing, but the princess suddenly spoke.

"There is a person missing in Aunt Jiang's room. I asked Manager Liang to select a few maids. You can choose one yourself later. That maid angered the prince. It is a mercy of the prince to spare her life. From now on, the servants who serve her will be taught a lesson again and again, and the same thing must not happen again."

The princess had a serious expression and seemed to be educating Jiang Wanyue, but in fact she was explaining the reason why Liu'er was driven away and helping her out.

Jiang Wanyue stood up and bowed.

"Thank you, Princess. I will pay attention to it next time."

After sitting back, Jiang Wanyue smiled at Guan Rou.

"What else does Aunt Guan want to find out? Why don't you just come back with me to Wutong Courtyard and I'll pull out the maids one by one for questioning?"

Guan Rou smiled reluctantly.

"Madam Jiang, you are joking. I was just asking casually."

Jiang Wanyue continued to drink tea, her eyes turning around and looking at Xie Lanxi.

Xie Lanxi didn't have time to target Jiang Wanyue today. All her energy was focused on Luo Qingqing, asking her questions all the time.

Luo Qingqing was obviously annoyed by her. She didn't even drink her tea and simply said goodbye to the princess in advance.

The princess asked them all to leave.

Luo Qingqing didn't even finish her greetings and left quickly, with Xie Lanxi following behind and calling out to her.

Jiang Wanyue was the last one to come in. Just as she walked out of the room, Xiuchun suddenly pulled her and whispered.

"I think I've seen the maidservant beside Aunt Xie somewhere before."

Jiang Wanyue's eyes moved.

"Where have you seen it?"

Xiuchun frowned: "I didn't see it clearly, and I can't remember it right away, but it looks very familiar anyway."

Jiang Wanyue's mind started to come alive.

Xiuchun should not have seen Xie Lanxi and her maid.

She had been staying in the Wutong Courtyard since she entered the mansion, and Liu'er had always come with her to pay her respects.

The only exception was the time she went out to buy medicine.

Could it be that Xiuchun had seen that maid on that day?

But where did you see it?

Jiang Wanyue's eyes flashed, she grabbed Xiuchun and quickened her pace.

"Take a closer look, maybe you can recognize it, let's go."
