The Self-cultivation of a Salted Fish Concubine

Thinking of this, Fang Yuaner became particularly annoyed, "You guys think of a way to find out."

"I always felt that she shouldn't have been pregnant."

Qiu Kui and Qiu Xiang always thought Fang Yuan'er was overly cautious and suspicious, suspecting that someone was trying to harm her.

But previous events have proved that Fang Yuaner's guesses were not wrong.

This time, they subconsciously believed Fang Yuaner.

After they left the house, Qiu Kui asked in confusion, "Concubine Han faked her pregnancy because she knew she could be promoted to concubine if she got pregnant. Concubine Wan faked her pregnancy...what was she trying to achieve?"

First of all, there is no shortage of pregnant women in the mansion now.

Wan Linlang was of low status and not favored, so her pregnancy posed no danger to anyone and few people were willing to harm her.

Secondly, the four concubine positions in the mansion are already filled. Even if Wan Linlang gives birth to two sons in one pregnancy, she will at best be a concubine.

Qiuxiang didn't understand either, but could only say, "Although what the master says is often unfounded, it is always accurate. Perhaps there is a truth to it that we don't know about?"

I don't know how this news got out.

Xie Run frowned when he heard this, "Did this news come from Xia Chiyuan?"

Only Fang Yuaner knew that Wan Linlang was born with a cold body and had difficulty conceiving.

When Xie Run suddenly heard that Wan Linlang was pregnant, his first reaction was the same, but after a little thought, he rejected the idea.

Wan Linlang is not stupid, so there is no need to dig a hole for herself.

Dan Tao was surprised, "How did the master know that it came from Xia Chiyuan?"

"I guessed." Xie Run's expression was very calm. "I'm afraid there will be trouble again."

Wan Linlang was reborn and has her own keenness.

Wan Linlang would definitely be suspicious of this news that came out of Fang Yuaner's yard for no reason.

It just so happens that the plot after rebirth is completely different from that of the previous life.

Wan Linlang already had doubts in her heart, and now when she encountered this loophole, she couldn't help but wonder if Fang Yuaner was reborn like her?

They were mortal enemies in their previous life, and I'm afraid the fight will be even more intense this time.

But these things have nothing to do with Xie Run. She has to prepare for Princess Ruyi's birthday party tomorrow.

Dan Tao asked, "Master, how are you going to dress up for Princess Ruyi's birthday tomorrow?"

"Just wear the new emerald green jacket and skirt embroidered with plum blossoms, and the pink gemstone headpiece. Just add or subtract a little."

Red plum blossoms and green skirts rarely look good together.

But the newly cut embroidered green and plum blossom jacket and skirt in the embroidery room are very beautiful in light green and light red.

The red plum blossoms are charming, the green skirt is fresh, and the colors complement each other.

If you put on a fox fur cloak, from a distance, it looks like a touch of spring falling in a world of white snow and red plum blossoms.

As he was speaking, Xie Run suddenly realized that something was missing from his waist.

As soon as she lowered her head, she heard Dan Tao's exclamation, "Master, where is your jade pendant?"

Only then did Xie Run realize that the jade pendant hanging around his waist was missing.

Dan Tao: "That jade pendant was a gift from the prince, and it has the master's nickname engraved on it. If it is lost and found by someone, I'm afraid they will use it as a raft."

Now everyone in Chunshanyuan has been influenced by Xie Run. When they lose something, their first reaction is to worry that someone will pick it up and harm them.

Xie Run thought for a moment, "Maybe it was thrown in a corner of the yard?"

"If all else fails, just look for it at the gate of the yard."

Because the terrain of Chunshanyuan was not very flat, Xie Run had the snow at the gate cleared away, creating a large open space.

I've been walking around the door these days.

Even if something was lost, it should be around here.

Dan Tao: "I will send someone to find it right away."

After half a day, no one had found the jade pendant.

Xiao Shu just came back from outside and walked to the stove to warm herself by the fire. She was so cold that she kept breathing out the air-conditioned air.

"Master, I didn't find it."

"There's no need to talk about the courtyard. We've searched back and forth in front of the courtyard more than ten times, almost reaching Qingzhu Courtyard, but we haven't found a single trace."

Dan Tao said worriedly, "We're making such a big noise, I'm afraid Qingzhu Courtyard will be disturbed too, right?"

Xie Run held the cup of tea to warm his hands, "I'm not afraid of a big fuss, I'm just afraid of things being lost quietly."

Her long feathery eyelashes drooped, casting a shadow on her snow-white cheeks.

"Tomorrow is Princess Ruyi's birthday banquet, but this incident happened today."

The two of them looked nervous and said, "Master, do you think the jade pendant was stolen instead of lost?"

Xie Run nodded slowly: "If it was something else that was lost, it would be fine. But it had to be this jade pendant."

The jade pendant was given to her by King Jing alone. Her nickname was engraved on it, making it a very personal item for Xie Run.

"It's our fault that we were so careless. We didn't even notice it."

Xie Run shook his head and suddenly said, "Have you forgotten what happened in Qingzhu Courtyard a while ago?"

Dan Tao was startled, "Master suspects it's Concubine Han?"

"That's not the case." Xie Run said slowly, "I just guess that there must be someone in the backyard of the palace who is very good at opening boxes and stealing."

"Concubine Li's box had never been opened, and a musk sachet was quietly placed inside."

"Was her pillow made by her personal maid, or was it taken advantage of by someone?"

For such a capable person, it would not be difficult at all to steal a jade pendant from Xie Run quietly.

"With such a capable person, how can you be blamed for your negligence?"

The enemy is too powerful and it is really difficult to deal with.

Xiaoshu and Dantao's eyes were filled with worry.

Xie Run looked at them and couldn't help but smile. "You don't have to be too nervous. I've been very popular in the mansion recently, and it's my turn now."

As long as you are in favor, you will be plotted against sooner or later.

No one can always stand safely at the forefront of the storm.

Xie Run had expected that he would be targeted. "Now that they're attacking openly, it gives us a chance to respond."

I am afraid of those who act silently, and if they don't attack, it's fine, but when they do, it's a fatal blow.

That's scary.

You won't even be given time to react.

Dan Tao asked, "How is the master going to respond?"

Xie Run thought for a moment, "Where is the prince now?"

"The prince is probably in the front yard right now."

Xie Run: "Xiao Shu, go to the front yard for me. Tell the prince that I lost my jade pendant. He's upset and mad at me right now."

Xiao Shu and Dan Tao looked at each other in surprise and doubt.

Xie Run was a gentle person, always smiling, never got angry at his servants, and never lost his temper.

In front of King Jing, even if she threw a tantrum, she would just treat it as a fun prank.

Suddenly saying that she was in a bad mood was strange to everyone, not to mention King Jing, even Dan Tao and Xiao Shu found it strange.

Xiao Shu's eyes moved, and she said cleverly, "I'll go right away and invite the prince over!"
