Yixiu is reborn, fights against her elder sister, and becomes the queen mother

Cuiguo's face was frighteningly ugly. If she had known this would happen, she would have risked being beaten by her master rather than let the princess put the pebble there!

Now, because of this small pebble, the concubine had a difficult delivery. If the prince found out, Gege, as the master, might be able to escape, but she, the servant...

The master and servant were extremely panicked, and just at this moment, Su Peisheng's voice came from outside.

Li Jingyan glanced nervously at Cuiguo, then nervously took her outside. Seeing Su Peisheng's cold expression, Li Jingyan could only smile and say, "Eunuch Su, why are you here?"

Su Peisheng bowed and said, "Master, please tell me that Li Gege was impetuous and almost caused Fu Jin to have a difficult labor. Fortunately, Fu Jin and the baby in her belly are fine. Li Gege, please kneel in the courtyard for two hours every day and pray for Fu Jin!"

Li Jingyan was startled. Kneeling for two hours in the middle of winter?

And there's no word on when it will end. What if I catch a cold?

But then, she reacted and acted rashly?

Then how come no one discovered that I used pebbles to cause Yixiu to have a premature birth?

Li Jingyan breathed a sigh of relief, then knelt down to express her gratitude joyfully: "I understand. I will definitely pray for Fu Jin in the courtyard from now on!"

Su Peisheng looked at Li Jingyan's expression and felt a little puzzled.

Logically speaking, given Li Gege's personality, it would have been good enough if she didn't make a fuss after knowing that she was being punished. Why did she look so happy?

And the expression just now was obviously one of relief. Although Su Peisheng had many questions in his mind, he still pretended to know nothing.

After Su Peisheng left, Li Jingyan slowly knelt on the ground. She looked at Cuiguo nervously and said, "Cuiguo, we must keep today's events to ourselves!"

Su Peisheng turned around and reported the matter to the Fourth Prince.

The Fourth Prince frowned, "Are you suspicious? Is there anything else Li hasn't said?"

He thought about it, then calmly put down the teacup in his hand.

"Check where Li Gege went today? And who did she meet?"

Su Peisheng: “Yes!”

…………

Tao Ye carefully applied medicine to Gan Ziyun's wound. She looked at her master with a distressed face and said, "Concubine, even if you are close to Concubine, you don't have to do this for her!"

Gan Ziyun shook his head. "The reason I did this today is not only to repay Fu Jin, but also for a very important reason. Now, I am the steward of the palace. If something happens to Fu Jin while I am the steward, what do you think? What will others think?"

Tao Ye thought about it carefully, and then she was so scared that she almost dropped the medicine in her hand on the ground.

If I didn’t have the medicine from my concubine today, I’m afraid both the concubine and I would have died.

The Emperor originally gave his concubine to the Fourth Prince so that she could manage the household for him, but now such a big mess has occurred!

"If anything happens to Fu Jin, I can't escape! I'm afraid people will suspect that I deliberately harmed Fu Jin!"

Gan Ziyun said silently.

Tao Ye stood up for her master, "Concubine, you are sincere to me, how could you possibly harm me?"

Gan Ziyun sneered and signaled Tao Ye to continue applying medicine to him.

"Last time, Lu Gege's child was almost lost, and Master scolded me! If Fu Jin's child is lost again, what kind of punishment will I, the housekeeper, receive?"

In fact, it is not only Gan Ziyun who will be punished.

Because of her poor housekeeping, such a big impact has occurred. There is no wall that is impenetrable in the world. Once this matter gets out, it will also affect the marriage of the Gan sisters.

Tao Ye was terrified, "Concubine, this is too scary, isn't it?"

"Today's events are very strange. I knew my sister was going to enjoy the plum blossoms, so I told the servants in the garden to clean up the place. But my sister said she stepped on something and fell!"

Gan Ziyun said coldly, staring ahead.

Tao Ye paused while applying the medicine, then looked up and asked, "What does Concubine Fu Jin mean by..."

Gan Ziyun thought for a moment and said, "First tell the master and his wife about this, and then send someone to investigate the garden!"

Tao Ye nodded and then ordered someone to check.

After receiving the news from Gan Ziyun, Yixiu immediately ordered someone to investigate the matter.

Originally thought it would be extremely difficult to find, but unexpectedly, Huichun took people to the garden and found the pebble that caused Yixiu to fall.

Jianqiu was a little skeptical at first. After all, if they wanted to harm Fu Jin, it must have been planned. Who could leave evidence at the crime scene?

The Fourth Prince is still the fastest among those in the palace.

When he learned the truth, he was so angry that he threw the beads in his hand.

"This bitch! How dare she harm my wife and child!"

Su Peisheng and other servants were so panicked that they kowtowed quickly, "Master, please calm down, Master, please calm down!"

After calming down, the Fourth Prince still told Yixiu the news. After all, she was the victim, so he had to ask Yixiu how to deal with Li Jingyan.

But Yixiu was surprisingly calm. "Your Majesty, I think there's definitely someone else behind this. With Li Gege's intelligence, she definitely wouldn't have thought of such a meticulous plan!"

The Fourth Prince knew that Yixiu had just given birth, so he spoke in a soft voice.

"Although Mrs. Li was a bit foolish, I have investigated and even personally interrogated the servants who cleaned the garden that day. Besides Li Gege going there in the afternoon, Lu Gege only went there to pick a plum blossom this morning!"

If this matter was secretly pushed by Lu, it would actually make sense. After all, she is pregnant now, and the eldest son of a concubine is also the eldest son.

Yixiu shook her head. Now she was certain that it was Nanny Gui who secretly pushed this matter.

Yixiu told the Fourth Prince her thoughts, "There's another person, Your Highness, you may not know about. That's Nanny Gui, whom my mother sent. Whether it's the servants cleaning the garden, Li Gege, or even the servants who came to investigate me, they've all seen Nanny Gui. I don't believe you if you say she has nothing to do with this!"

Upon hearing this, the Fourth Prince also fell into deep thought.

Indeed, as Yixiu said, everyone involved in this matter seemed to have met Nanny Gui before doing anything.

But she was sent by her own mother. How could her mother harm her own grandson?

"I also went to the palace to visit my mother before, but I remember that this Gui Ma was not with her at that time!"

Seeing that the Fourth Prince was unable to understand the situation, Yixiu had to say another word to wake him up.

The Fourth Prince couldn't help but sweat on his forehead. Could it be that someone had planted a spy next to his mother?

Yes, it was actually my own short-sightedness that I only saw the fight within the inner house and didn’t look at the long-term consequences!
