The princess was fed contraceptive soup on the day of the marriage exchange, and she went crazy

Li Yueru's eyes were red as she stared at Aunt Liu fiercely: "Your maid has already confessed. You found out I was pregnant and deliberately ordered someone to put saffron in my food!"

"You were afraid of being suspected by us, so you deliberately asked Sheng Nanzhi to take you to Prince Yi's Mansion to create evidence that you were not in the Sheng Mansion at all and that everything had nothing to do with you."

Aunt Liu's eyes widened, and it took her a while to come back to her senses. She realized what Li Yueru was saying: "Madam is pregnant?"

"I didn't even know Madam was pregnant. How could I have arranged everything in advance and drugged you?"

Sheng Nanzhi also spoke up: "Mother misunderstood. It wasn't Auntie's idea that I took her over before. I was suddenly feeling depressed, so I came to ask Father to let Auntie stay with me for a few days."

"Furthermore, mother said that it was my aunt's maid who put saffron in my aunt's food?"

"Saffron has both color and flavor. My aunt is pregnant. Could it be that the maids in the kitchen and around her don't even know about saffron? They can't even detect it?"

"Besides, saffron is known to cause miscarriage. My aunt is already pregnant, so where did her maid get the saffron?"

"Can the maidservants around my aunt leave the house at will? If so, where did she buy the saffron? Did she ask the pharmacy? Do they match the pharmacy's account books?"

"If she couldn't leave the house at will, then who did she ask to buy the saffron?"

"Where did the person she asked to buy it? On what day and at what time did they buy it? Has my mother found out everything through interrogation? If so, I can have someone verify it again."

Li Yueru frowned. She didn't expect Sheng Nanzhi to ask so carefully.

She just bribed the maidservant around Concubine Liu to give false testimony, but the details were not complete.

"How do I know that the person who drugged me was the maidservant beside Concubine Liu? You should ask Concubine Liu or the maidservant beside her."

Sheng Nanzhi frowned. "Madam, you've been in charge of the household for so many years, don't you know that a complete chain of evidence is needed to identify someone?"

"Could it be that Madam has handled other matters in the mansion in the same way before?"

"If any maidservant is slightly dissatisfied with her master and comes out without any evidence, saying that the master asked her to buy poison and give it to other people in the mansion, then the lady will believe the maidservant and arrest the person she pointed out?"

Sheng Lin was sitting aside, and when he heard Sheng Nanzhi's words, his brows furrowed.

Things are indeed a bit strange.

Li Yueru did not have a complete chain of evidence. She only said that it was the maidservant beside Concubine Liu who confessed and that it was Concubine Liu who instructed her to do so.

Furthermore, Li Yueru did have a miscarriage.

So she believed it.

Sheng Nanzhi raised her head slightly and continued, "Besides, Auntie said she had no idea about Madam's pregnancy. Has anyone else in the mansion heard about it?"

"If no one knew that the lady was pregnant, then based solely on the lady's statement that she had a miscarriage and the doctor's one-sided statement, then the truth would be revealed."

"Then can we suspect that the Madam was not actually pregnant at all, and that she deliberately bribed the court doctor to falsely claim she was pregnant and had a miscarriage in order to frame someone else?"

Li Yueru stood up angrily and pointed at Sheng Nanzhi: "What do you mean?"

"What evidence do you have?"

Sheng Nanzhi shrugged. "I really don't have any evidence, but Mother, you accused Aunt Liu of having someone give you saffron, causing your miscarriage, but you don't have any evidence either."

"I have witnesses!" Li Yueru gritted her teeth and turned to look at Sheng Lin: "Master, look at Sheng Nanzhi..."

Sheng Lin frowned: "Don't be rude to Princess Yi."

Sheng Nanzhi curled his lips: "I don't have any witnesses, but I have reason to suspect."

"So, I'd like Dad to find a royal doctor to take Mom's pulse and see if she really had a miscarriage, or if she's faking it to frame someone."

"If Mother wants to accuse Concubine Liu of causing your miscarriage, she must first prove that you were truly pregnant and that you truly miscarried, right?"

"My request should be reasonable, right?"

"Wouldn't Mother dare?"

Sheng Nanzhi didn't even give Li Yueru a chance to speak: "If mother doesn't dare, doesn't that mean that my guess is very likely true? Mother, are you feeling guilty?"

Li Yueru was furious. Sheng Nanzhi had already said all the good and bad things to her. No matter how she reacted, it seemed like she was forced to make the decision.

Sheng Lin looked at her with suspicion in his eyes.

Li Yueru took a deep breath and said, "Did I say anything? Did I say I didn't dare let the imperial physician take my pulse? And you said I was guilty?"

"Then please."

Sheng Nanzhi nodded and said, "Dad, please send a letter to invite a trustworthy imperial physician. If I ask someone to invite him, mother might suspect that I bribed the imperial physician."

Li Yueru gritted her teeth and glared at Sheng Nanzhi viciously.

She didn't know when this little bitch became so difficult and aggressive?

But what is she afraid of?

Although she had not yet made complete arrangements for the maidservant beside Concubine Liu, it was true that she became pregnant without her knowledge and then had a miscarriage.

She has consulted so many doctors to confirm it, what is she afraid of?

Sheng Nanzhi turned around and asked someone to bring a chair: "Madam Liu and I are both pregnant and can't stand for long. Let's sit down and wait for the doctor to come."

Li Yueru became even more furious upon seeing this, and her fingernails almost pinched her palms until they bled.

What does it mean to tell her that I’m pregnant when she just had a miscarriage?

Do you want to piss her off to death?

Bitch!

Sheng Nanzhi, this little bitch, shouldn't have believed the old Taoist's nonsense about good and bad fortune being interdependent, and that if one of Sheng Nanzhi and Sheng Yunrou got into trouble, the other would definitely get into trouble too. She left behind such a disaster.

She should have strangled her to death.

A hint of cruelty flashed in Li Yueru's eyes, but it was still too late.

After this incident, the first thing she would do would definitely be to kill Sheng Nanzhi.

Not long after, the imperial physician arrived.

Sheng Nanzhi did not say anything. Sheng Lin only told the imperial physician about Li Yueru's condition, and then the imperial physician began to take Li Yueru's pulse.

The imperial physician's brows gradually furrowed. "From what Prime Minister Sheng said about the Prime Minister's wife's condition, it seems she may have had a miscarriage."

"But when I took the Prime Minister's wife's pulse, I felt something was wrong."

"The Prime Minister's wife's pulse doesn't sound like that of a woman experiencing a miscarriage. It's more like... the pulse of a woman experiencing her period."

Li Yueru's eyes widened, and she immediately retorted, "How is that possible? I've asked several doctors, and they all said I had a miscarriage."

"My sunflower water is not..."

She was about to say that this was not the time for her period, but she suddenly remembered something and stopped talking.

Sheng Nanzhi raised her eyelids and said, "When does mother have her period? The maidservants around her and the servants in the laundry room should know best, right?"

"You can call him over and ask him."

"By the way, you can also call the doctor that mother hired before over for another examination."

"But I suspect that my mother has bribed those doctors, so we changed the way we diagnose pulses."
