The prince only allowed me to have a baby, so the pressure is a bit high!

Chapter 40: Sending Everyone Away

It was already late after the dinner. Even though Buerhe still wanted to continue gossiping with the Third Lady, it was already dark, so the two had to make another appointment to continue.

But unexpectedly, this day came very quickly, and the next day the Third Lady had to go to Yuqing Palace to visit Buerhe, because this time Buerhe was really pregnant, and the women in Yuqing Palace also fully understood what kind of temper the prince had.

The incident started when Buerhe could not sleep after returning to Yuqing Palace that night and took a walk with Yinreng in the small garden. The two chatted as they walked. It was a peaceful night, nothing special happened. But when Buerhe and the prince walked to a cluster of flowers, a large wild cat suddenly appeared from the bushes. Then, the wild cat ran straight towards Buerhe without a sound, and stretched out its claws to attack Buerhe.

A big cat weighing nearly ten kilograms rushed towards Buerhe. Buerhe quickly lost her balance due to the force. If Yinreng had not been quick enough to hug her, Buerhe would have fallen hard.

Even though he didn't fall, the incident still made Buerhe's heart beat wildly. Especially since the cat continued to attack Buerhe, as if it would not give up until it achieved its goal.

The servants and maids reacted quickly. After the prince hugged Buerhe, they circled around the cat to prevent it from getting close to Buerhe. But it was no use. The cat still tried to get close to Buerhe like crazy and attacked her, scratching the maids who tried to stop it until they were covered in blood.

Yinreng: "Quick, kill that beast for me, quickly."

The guards quickly drew their swords upon receiving the order, hoping to find a chance to get the cat out. However, cats are very agile animals, and coupled with their small size, they were able to blend into the crowd, making it difficult for the guards to catch them.

Mo'er was sharp-eyed. She noticed that the cat kept attacking its master, and it must be because there was something different about him. She was very clever. She quickly looked Burhe up and down, and suddenly realized that except for the cloak he had temporarily added because of the cool night air, everything else was normal. She would rather kill a thousand people by mistake than let one go. She quickly reminded the prince who was holding Burhe, "Prince, quickly, take off our master's cloak!"

The prince was already a little anxious at this time. When he heard this, he helped Burhe to untie the cloak without saying a word. After getting the cloak, Yinreng used a lot of strength to throw it more than ten meters away.

The amazing thing is that as soon as the cloak slipped out of his hand, the cat seemed to notice it, turned around and ran after the cloak, then pounced on the cloak and tore and bit it, wishing to tear the cloak into pieces.

Seeing this, the guard hurried over and took advantage of the cat's inattention to cut off the cat with a knife, eliminating the hidden danger.

The matter had been resolved, and the group of people finally breathed a sigh of relief. But at this moment, Burhe's hand holding the prince became tighter and tighter: "Master, my stomach hurts, it hurts so much."

When Yinreng heard the sound and looked back, Buerhe's face was covered with sweat. It was obvious that he was in great pain, but he had been enduring it because of the tense situation before. Now that he relaxed, he could not bear it anymore.

The palace maid beside her suddenly shouted, "Blood! There is blood behind the Crown Princess."

There was no time for him to think about anything else at this moment. Yinreng rushed to the main courtyard with Buerhe in his arms, and at the same time shouted to He Zhu, "Go and call the imperial physician."

When Burhe was placed safely on the bed, her fingernails had already dug deeply into Yinreng's flesh. However, at this time, Burhe was not unable to bear the pain, but was a little panicked because of the pain, fearing that something might happen to the baby in her belly.

Doctor Zhang ran over from the front yard, but Yinreng did not make way for her. Buerhe was not in a good mood and he did not dare to let her go.

After the imperial physician examined her pulse, he was relieved to find that it was only excessive fear that had triggered false labor. A bowl of anti-abortion medicine and some rest should be enough. However, the more difficult part was that the Crown Princess needed to exercise more during this period. After all, she was pregnant with twins, and without proper exercise, she was afraid that giving birth in a month would be difficult.

After hearing the imperial physician's diagnosis, the prince loosened his grip on Burhe a little, and the next second he turned Burhe's head towards him: "Listen, Burhe, the imperial physician says you're fine, and the children are fine too, so there's no need to be afraid. Leave to me what happens tonight. No matter if it's an accident or some real monster, as long as I find out, I will not let you off easily."

Burhe gradually recovered with the prince's comfort. After taking a bowl of pregnancy-preserving medicine, her eyelids slowly drooped and gradually closed. Before falling asleep, she held the prince's hand and fell asleep peacefully after hearing his strong assurance.

The Crown Prince did not let go of Buerhe's hand, but instead instructed He Zhu, who had returned to his side, "Investigate, investigate thoroughly for me. Mobilize all the people in Yuqing Palace. I want to know the whole truth by tomorrow morning at the latest."

He Zhu was also frightened by tonight's incident. These people were living a peaceful life but had to do some weird things. Now, Yuqing Palace would at least be turned upside down.

Seeing the prince with such a cold face, he didn't dare to stay any longer. He lowered his head and backed out of the main courtyard to arrange the prince's instructions.

That night, apart from the peaceful and tranquil atmosphere of the main courtyard and the brightly lit Yuqing Palace, all other areas were under scrutiny. The cat and the cloak were also repeatedly examined by the imperial physicians. Yes, the imperial physicians. This incident had alarmed Emperor Kangxi, who, upon learning that the Crown Princess had suffered a miscarriage from shock, had immediately dispatched the imperial physicians.

The next day, when Buerhe woke up, the sun was already high in the sky. There was only one Qi'er guarding her in the bedroom. When he saw Buerhe wake up, he hurried forward to help her get up and put a big pillow behind her. The meaning was very clear, he had no intention of letting Buerhe get out of bed.

Qi'er: "Master, have you rested well? How are you feeling now? Do you want to call the imperial physician to come and take a look?"

Buerhe: "I'm fine now, where's the master? What time is it now?"

Qi'er: "It's already Si-hour. The Crown Prince stayed by your side all night and left not long ago. I heard He Zhu say he went to the Qianqing Palace. Master, are you hungry? The breakfast is still warm in the small kitchen. Do you want to come up?"

Bull and: "Oh, have you found out what happened last night?"

When Qi'er heard Buerhe ask this question, he smiled awkwardly and said, "Master, He Zhu is in charge of this matter. How about I ask someone to call He Zhu over to give me an answer?"

Buerhe: "Forget it, forget it for now. I am really hungry now. I have slept long enough. I should have breakfast first."

Qi'er smiled happily: "Hey, I'll call Liuli to serve breakfast right away. Master, you just lean here first." After that, he trotted out of the bedroom and called Liuli.

Soon, the entire main courtyard was aware that the Crown Princess had awakened. The previously quiet courtyard suddenly became lively, and the atmosphere became slightly more relaxed. The Crown Princess's accident last night, and the Crown Prince's order for Yuqing Palace to conduct a self-investigation, had left everyone in the main courtyard in a state of panic. With the exception of Buer and the dowry he had brought, no one in the main courtyard was allowed to approach the main room. Now, they saw everyone as someone who wanted to harm their master. They hadn't slept all night, and they were all alert and keeping a close eye on everyone else.

Liuli and the other maids Qi'er came in soon. Seeing that their master had returned to normal, they felt more confident. After receiving some instructions from Buerhe, they returned to their respective posts.

After the meal, Buerhe called He Zhu and asked about the truth of the matter. When He Zhu was in a dilemma, the prince strode in and said, "He Zhu, follow my instructions and handle the matter as soon as possible. You are no longer needed here. Go down."

After hearing this, He Zhu bowed to the Crown Princess and turned to go about his business. The Crown Prince, however, walked over to Buerhe, took her hand, and after feeling the familiar warmth, he explained to Buerhe, "He only knows part of it and can't explain it clearly. So, I'll tell you!"

As the prince finished speaking, Burhe sat up straight. She was now eager to know the specific truth.

Yinreng said, "This is my fault. I was too soft-hearted. From the beginning, I shouldn't have accepted those women and kept them well-fed and well-fed in the backyard. I didn't expect that your kindness would arouse their jealousy and make them so bold as to want to hurt you."

After a pause, Yinreng calmed down his anger a little, and continued, "They all came to Yuqing Palace with a purpose, wanting to become my favorite concubines, concubines, and future imperial concubines. But I don't like them, so after they were granted entry to Yuqing Palace, I never visited them once.

Later, because some people tried to seduce me deliberately, I was punished for being the first to do so, and those little tricks finally stopped for a while.

During my wedding, those people had actually made some small moves, but the servants I had stationed in the backyard noticed them. At that time, I had Madam Wu lock them up in the backyard, restricting their access. I figured if I didn't see them, nothing would happen if I kept them locked up like that.

But I underestimated human nature. In the past few years, the women in the courtyard have lived very well under your care, making them think that you are willing to accept them and will speak well of them in front of me. I didn't expect that they still had no chance to come out after you became pregnant.

A while ago, rumors spread through the palace that you were pregnant with two little princes, prompting a search of Yuqing Palace and the elimination of several culprits. This forced them to abandon their reliance on hiding and make a desperate move. This time, they joined forces, inciting rebellion among the servants and the nanny, bribed the palace maids who cleaned the small garden and the laundry, and found an opportunity to smear catnip on your cloak and drug the kitten.

This kind of catnip has a very light smell. People with a sensitive nose can only smell a faint mint smell. Even servants usually can't smell it. But once a cat smells it, it will feel as excited as if it had taken marijuana.

The cat last night was trained in advance and drugged. If you appear in the garden, the cat will definitely attack you until it dies."

Bu Erhe took a deep breath after hearing this. She never expected the truth to be like this. Ever since she married into Yuqing Palace, she always asked the servants to treat the concubines in the courtyard well because she sympathized with their plight. Even if they couldn't go out, they would still give them good food, jewelry and so on. If it was a festival or birthday, she would even give them some extra rewards. She never expected that people are greedy and even then, they still felt that what they got was not enough.

People are selfish. Who would be willing to share a husband who dotes on them wholeheartedly in this life? Besides, according to Master Pu Du, even if they came out, what would happen? They would still be treated coldly by the Crown Prince. These past few years, I hadn't been eating for nothing. I had already confirmed the truth of Master Pu Du's words about the "aftereffects."

It was for this reason that he treated them preferentially. He didn't expect that his kindness would be treated as a donkey's liver and lungs. Now Bu Erhe didn't want to take care of them anymore. In the future, he would let the affairs of the rear courtyard be handled by the prince.

Yinreng was happy to see that Buerhe was unwilling to care about the affairs of the Houzhaoyuan. In fact, Yinreng exaggerated the matter. The truth was that the catnip on the clothes was indeed the work of those women, and they also found a way to get the cat, but the cat medicine was done by another group of people.

Originally, they just wanted to scare the Crown Princess so that she would be weak due to physical reasons during the miscarriage and delivery. At that time, someone would definitely need to manage the harem, and they could take the opportunity to come out and serve the Crown Prince.

After all, they are already quite old. If they don't come out, they will be old and ugly and have no chance again.

However, they had good intentions, but they did not expect that with their identities of being locked up in Yuqing Palace for several years and not being able to come out, and now being abandoned by the family, they could easily bribe the palace maids and the laundry maids, especially how they happened to know that the Crown Princess was wearing that cloak when she went to visit the garden.
