She married a dying prince and she won three babies.
Chapter 103: Kill two birds with one stone
After about a quarter of an hour, Shangguan Ziqi spat out a mouthful of blood with a "wow" sound, and the prince slowly stopped.
"How do you feel?" the princess asked with concern.
Shangguan Ziqi took two breaths before looking up at the two women in front of him.
"Mother, I'm much better."
Yu Yuanzheng grabbed one of his hands and felt his pulse. His heartbeat was still quite fast, so it could only be said that the pulse was partially relieved.
"Father, Mother, please go out first. I'll help him a little bit and everything will be fine. This medicine will still be harmful to your health if its effects are not completely removed."
"How are you going to help him?" The princess was afraid that she would do something stupid.
"Don't worry, my daughter-in-law has a way." Yu Yuanzheng said affirmatively.
"Then why do we have to go out?" The princess was puzzled.
As a result, he was pulled out by the prince.
Men still have more ideas.
"Why are you pulling me? What if the children do something wrong?" The princess's worried voice could still be heard outside the door.
Yu Yuanzheng said nothing, simply helping Shangguan Ziqi lie down. Then she began to help him relieve his pain. Of course, she didn't use the traditional method, but instead asked the Fifth Lady to help.
Shangguan Ziqi didn't return to normal until Yu Yuanzheng's hands were so sore that he almost lost his strength.
"Ma'am, I'm sorry. It's my fault." Shangguan Ziqi gently hugged her in his arms, feeling guilty.
The lady actually did this to save him, and she felt even more guilty.
"Tell me, how did you get into trouble?" Yu Yuanzheng was also angry, and her tone was not very good.
"Ruyue and Rushuang came to say goodbye to me, saying that their families had found families for them and they were going to get married soon. They wanted to serve me one last time and asked me for the fifty taels of dowry I had promised them.
As usual, they cleaned the study and sorted out the books. Rushang also made me a cup of tea, which I usually drink.
I underestimated their persistence, thinking they were truly saying goodbye. I just went along with them, and then I ended up...”
"You've got to learn this lesson from now on. Women are tigers, you know?" Yu Yuanzheng was truly impressed by the two maids. She was also furious at Shangguan Ziqi for not being on guard.
Such a crude scheme cannot be recognized.
"Yes, yes, Madam is right. No, Madam is not a tiger, Madam is a celestial being."
"Humph."
Men don't understand women's tactics, so it seems I need to teach them a lesson. I'll use the little experience I've learned from reading online literature as my teacher.
"Madam, don't be angry anymore. Be careful that the child will get angry too. From now on, I will be careful and stay away from all women except you and my mother."
"If I give birth to a daughter, will you stay away from her?" Yu Yuanzheng deliberately found loopholes in his words.
"A daughter is just a child until she grows up, not a woman," Shangguan Ziqi argued.
"Sophistry." Yu Yuanzheng scolded him, amused by his words.
"Madam, are you no longer angry?"
"I've convinced you."
Yu Yuanzheng was angry for only a short while.
"Let's go and ask those two women why they are so bold. They clearly accepted the conditions you offered and were ready to get married. Why did they suddenly change their minds?"
She didn't believe that the two of them would dare to do this for no reason.
"Let's go." Shangguan Ziqi's face darkened when he mentioned the two maids.
After leaving the study, I came to the side room.
The two maids were tied up and gagged by the guards and thrown inside.
"Wuwu..." When the two maids saw Shangguan Ziqi and Yu Yuanzheng come in, they struggled to kneel in front of them, making whimpering sounds in their throats.
"Qingfeng, take the cloth out of their mouths." Yu Yuanzheng ordered. She wanted to hear what they said.
"Young Master, Young Madam, we were wrong, we were wrong." The two of them kowtowed desperately to admit their mistakes.
This time they were really scared.
It would have been fine if the plan had succeeded, but the eldest young master was able to open them up even after being drugged with such a strong drug, and then send someone to notify the eldest young lady to come.
We can only blame the eldest son for being such a gentleman and having such great patience.
"Tell me, who instructed you to do this?" Shangguan Ziqi asked coldly.
That majestic aura, like that of a superior.
The two maids were so frightened that they were trembling, but neither of them said a word.
No one was instructing them at all.
"What? If you don't tell me, I'll just beat you to death with sticks." Shangguan Ziqi threatened.
"Master, please spare us. No one ordered us to do this. We are just wishful thinking. We want to be your concubines, but we are unwilling to do so. We don't want to be slaves for the rest of our lives." Ruyue cried and spoke out her true feelings.
"You were clearly planning to get married before, why did you suddenly change your mind?" Yu Yuanzheng didn't believe Ruyue's words.
She has had this idea for many years, not just one or two days.
It seems far-fetched to say it today.
"Why don't you tell the truth?" Shangguan Ziqi narrowed his eyes coldly again.
"It was the prince's two concubines who showed off their good life in front of us, which made us jealous. That's why we took this last gamble." Rushuang was frightened and told the truth.
She doesn't want to die yet. She is only eighteen years old and has a lot of good years ahead of her.
"How do they show off?" Yu Yuanzheng understood something.
"Now that the Crown Prince's Consort is pregnant, these two are the Crown Prince's other women besides the Crown Prince's Consort.
These days, the two of them take turns serving the prince every night when he comes back.
The prince also gave each of them a valuable pearl hairpin, brought them gifts when he went out, and arranged better positions for their families.
They were no longer allowed to do maid work and only had to take care of the prince's daily life.
They also said that the prince had promised them that he would make them concubines as long as they gave birth to children.
They also said that we followed the eldest master and ended up marrying slaves. It was really not worth it. If it were them, they would have taken the eldest master long ago."
Rushuang repeated everything the concubine had said.
"Oh, so that's how it is. Then where do you get your medicine?" Yu Yuanzheng asked again.
"It was also them who gave us the idea. They said that as long as we make it a done deal, the eldest master will definitely accept us. So we went out and bought that kind of medicine." Ruyue said quickly.
Now that it has been brought up, she might as well confess everything. She was afraid that if Rushuang told everything, the eldest master would only punish her and let Rushuang go.
"Where did you buy your medicine?" Yu Yuanzheng asked again.
She didn't quite believe that the two maids could go to the pharmacy and buy it openly, and pharmacies generally didn't dare to sell this kind of medicine openly.
Once discovered, you will be sued.
"Not long after we left the house, we met a traveling doctor. He approached us and introduced the good things he had, including the medicine, so we bought it.
We were afraid we might have bought a fake, so we even tried it on a cat, and it turned out the cat was actually in heat."
Rushuang stammered and then lowered her head in shame.
After hearing this, Yu Yuanzheng and Shangguan Ziqi looked at each other and knew what was going on.
This was a trap set for them as a couple, or rather, for her.
It was a trap to annoy her.
You don't have to think twice to know who it is.
This plan kills two birds with one stone.
I don’t think of anyone else except Yu Chaoyang.
Not only did it annoy me, but it also helped her get rid of the two people staring at her.
No one knew what benefits she promised to Shangguan Zishu's two concubines to make them willing to help her do this.
Those two were stupid enough to be taken advantage of.
"Okay, Qingfeng, go inform mother that these two maids will be sold directly, along with their families." Shangguan Ziqi made the decision.
The two maids felt relieved that they didn't have to die.
At most, I would be scolded by my family when I got home.
"Thank you, Young Master, and thank you, Madam." The two expressed their gratitude.
