Several midwives came back to their senses.

He hurriedly looked terrified, and felt terrified when he thought of that scene.

"Master Chief Steward, I saw the Crown Princess give birth to this... this freak. I was terrified. It was so terrifying. The freak even opened its eyes and looked at us. Its pupils were all black, without a trace of white. It was like a black lantern. It was so scary, so scary... so scary..."

The steward impatiently interrupted the midwife who kept repeating the words "too scary".

"Okay, shut up. Tell me, are you sure you saw the same scene as she did? Tell the truth."

The other midwife was also trembling.

"Yes, yes, it's the same. That freak even kicked my hand. It's so terrible..."

"Okay, shut up too." Seeing that the midwife was about to repeat the four words "How horrible", the butler interrupted her in time.

I questioned two more midwives, and they gave the same testimony.

The last midwife left had an ordinary look but looked honest and dutiful, and the manager had already believed her for the most part.

"Tell me, is it the same scene that the four of them saw?"

The ordinary midwife raised her head and glanced at Tang Yu calmly, but then quickly retracted her gaze in an instant without anyone noticing.

It just made people think that she was as frightened and confused as the other midwives, with her eyes wandering.

"To reply to the steward, I also saw the same scene. At first, when I touched the Crown Princess's abdomen, I felt something strange, but I just thought it was the abnormal fetal position. I also told Nanny Chen that the Crown Princess might have a difficult delivery. Until the evening when the delivery was imminent, I touched the Crown Princess's fetal position again and found that the fetal position was normal again. So I told Nanny Chen again that the Crown Princess would not have a difficult delivery, but..."

The manager was sweating profusely, "Just what? Tell me quickly."

"It's just that I found that the shape of the fetus is different from the ones I have delivered in the past. At that time, I thought that the Crown Princess's child might be defective. I didn't expect it to be a freak. It's so terrible..."

Butler, "Shut up, don't repeat the words 'too scary', I know it."

He took a deep breath. Today, his old bones were almost scared to death.

"Empress Concubine Yu, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, His Majesty, and several key ministers are discussing state affairs, so they cannot return for the time being. I hope that Empress Concubine will keep the news secret. This..."

Tang Yu nodded immediately.

"I know, I know. I will try my best to prevent this matter from being spread. I hope the steward will report it as soon as possible so that we can make a decision. Thank you for your help in this trip."

Tang Yu was very polite and warm-hearted, which made the old steward, who had just looked down on Tang Yu in his heart, feel embarrassed.

He was almost frightened to death just now.

This concubine is so young but she is still trying hard to hold on to the situation. He really admires her.

"Yes, I will take my leave and report to His Majesty, the Queen, and the Crown Prince."

After the old steward left, the maids in the Xingyue Palace continued to be busy. Tang Yu warned everyone not to spread the matter.

Zhou Liangdi kept staring at her, as if she was staring at her to death.

"What's wrong, Sister Zhou? You're not feeling well. Go back to the palace. I'll ask the imperial physician to check your pulse later. You've looked a lot more haggard lately, and I'm really worried."

Zhou Liangdi had a pale face and prominent cheekbones.

"Tang Yu, what on earth are you doing? I don't understand you. What on earth are you trying to do?"

Everyone around was busy and no one paid attention to this place.

Tang Yu smiled.

"What are you talking about, Sister Zhou? I don't understand."

Zhou Liangdi didn't want to continue pretending to be a close sister to her, and didn't want to play dumb with her. She was tired of this kind of life.

She said directly, "No matter what your plan is, as long as the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Duke's Mansion don't fall, the Crown Princess will always be the Crown Princess, and you will always be a concubine, never able to step onto the stage, a concubine like me."

"My Lady Concubine, My Lady Crown Princess is awake!" came the voice of the little maid.

Tang Yu answered distractedly, "Okay, I got it, I'll be there right away." Then he whispered slowly into Zhou Liangdi's ear.

"Then we'll see."
