After entering the book, the cold prince begs for favor

Lu Jiangnian looked at her deeply, then smiled.

"Well, you probably guessed wrong. Even if Qihuangzhai had the courage of heaven, they wouldn't dare hide a wanted criminal of the imperial court who had been executed along with his entire clan in the capital."

"Just don't mention the name 'Doctor Tang' to anyone else."

Since Yuan Wanru knew the whole story, she would certainly not speak without restraint.

It’s just that, “I think there’s something strange about this case.”

"Logically, given how much Empress Sun valued him, he wouldn't have attempted to murder her. He ended up with his entire clan exterminated. What was his motive?"

Lu Jiangnian looked out the window with a far-reaching gaze, and said in a deep voice, "When the incident happened, the prince and I were about seven or eight years old. I still remember the prince's despair, pain, and anger."

The emperor and the empress had a very good relationship back then. Although he did not neglect the harem, all matters in the harem were decided by the empress, and the emperor never interfered.

The Crown Prince was the legitimate son of the Empress Dowager. Since his birth, he had enjoyed the father-son relationship that other princes had never had. However, all of this disappeared with the death of Empress Sun.

It can be said that the prince's originally beautiful and happy life was completely overturned by this disaster.

Even today, he can't let it go.

"Looking back now, there are indeed some doubts, but this case happened more than ten years ago, and we have no way to verify it."

The case involves the palace walls, and the files cannot be consulted at will. Moreover, the emperor and the prince regard it as a hidden pain. Who would bother to touch this brow and bring up the matter again?

"Does the Crown Prince think so too? Doesn't he want to find the real murderer of Queen Sun?"

Lu Jiangnian smiled faintly and reached out to scratch the tip of her delicate nose. "Do you think the emperor just concluded the case randomly? He must have had solid evidence to convict Tang Bo."

"Okay, it's old news, don't think about it too much."

"If you have time to think about those things, you might as well think more about me."

Yuan Wanru hit him and said, "Let me go. I need to go make medicine."

Lu Jiangnian held her, and his hands rubbed her waist, which was very seductive.

She looked at him angrily, her cheeks flushed: "Why are you acting like a scoundrel?"

He admitted openly: "When facing you, I am willing to be a scoundrel or a lecher."

"I only ask for a kiss."

……

After all the fuss, we didn't get much medicine, and he got all the benefits.

Her face was flushed, and she was wearing a goose yellow jacket and skirt, which made her snow-white skin look even whiter. Her eyes were shy and pretty, which made Lu Jiangnian feel lustful.

With a sigh, he rested his head on her shoulder: "Madam, your period is almost over, right?"

Yuan Wanru thought of what they had said in the carriage today and jumped up as if she had been burned. "No, no, it will take several days. Just wait."

As she said that, she pushed him and said, "Get out of here now. It's fine if you can't help, but you keep bothering me."

Lu Jiangnian laughed softly, "Blame it on me, blame it on me. I won't mess around again. I'll grind the medicine right away. Madam, please don't chase me away."

"I came back early today just to have a good chat with you. By the way, don't you want to know about the matter of forgiveness that I mentioned last night?"

When this was mentioned, Yuan Wanru stopped trying to drive people away.

"What's wrong with forgiveness?"

This time, Lu Jiangnian really sat in his seat obediently, talking while working: "Second Aunt said before that the reason she found Rong Shu was because she heard about it from Han Pozi, who served beside Concubine Shen in Second Uncle's room."

"I had people keep an eye on Shen and Han, but they didn't see anything."

Lu Jiangnian didn't have the patience to wait. He didn't touch Liang Yusong because it involved various forces. Since he suspected Han Pozi, he just arrested her directly.

They used all the methods of interrogating spies on Mrs. Han. How tough could she be?

Soon, she confessed.

"She said that it was Pan who gave her some money and asked her to say so."

Pan?

Lu Bai's pregnant concubine Pan?

How did it come back to her again?

Yuan Wanru couldn't help but think of the fact that Zaohua, who was beside Pan, had framed her, and that Wang Xiaocao wanted to burn her wedding dress. These things were all inextricably linked to this Aunt Pan.

"What is Aunt Pan's background?"

Since Lu Jiangnian had already asked Mrs. Han about Pan, he had naturally investigated Pan's background thoroughly.

"His ancestral home is in a county outside the capital. His father was a minor official in the county. He had a clean family background and no worries about food and clothing."

"But her father died unexpectedly, and her family fell into poverty. She was almost sold to an old man by her stepmother. But she met her second uncle, played a heroic rescue, and then became his concubine."

Yuan Wanru frowned. Considering Aunt Pan's identity, there was nothing wrong with it.

"There is no solid evidence. After all, she is my second uncle's woman, so I can't touch her."

"However, she has two maids who serve her personally. If I detain them, I will definitely be able to find out some clues."

One of them is jujube flower.

This is a good idea, but Aunt Pan is now five months pregnant, and the baby in her belly is Lu Bai's blood. If she gets miscarried, it could result in death.

"She's pregnant. Wouldn't it be a bit radical to do this?"

Lu Jiangnian sneered, "Don't worry, they'll tell you everything in just one night. The five-month pregnancy is already stable. What could possibly happen to her in such a short time?"

"If something really happens, we can only say that she has something to hide."

When Mrs. Han disappeared, Aunt Shen immediately went to her second uncle and second aunt to cry and ask them to report to the police to find her. She said that they could continue to live their lives as usual.

Wouldn’t the master be dead without his servants?

Especially since Pan was pregnant, if she didn't care about the fetus at all, it would mean that the two maids knew a lot.

Yuan Wanru nodded: "Then let's do as you say."

She even suspected that Aunt Pan had been involved when the original owner fell into the water.

-

At night, Yuan Wanru went to the bathroom to wash up. Lu Jiangnian walked out and asked Aunt Pang privately: "My wife is having her period and she is not feeling well. I am really sorry for her."

"I don't know if this is a disease. How long does it usually take for your period to end?"

Aunt Pang's old face turned red with shame.

How can a grown man like the eldest son ask these questions?

However, he also did it out of love for the eldest young master's wife, and Aunt Pang felt relieved.

"It's okay. Many women have this problem. Madam Eldest Young Master hasn't felt so bad since she got married. Maybe she won't feel any pain after giving birth."

Lu Jiangnian didn't hear the answer he was most concerned about. He stared at Aunt Pang with a pair of deep eyes: "Then how long does her period last each time?"

Aunt Pang: ...

The eldest son is so meticulous and touching.

"It will be clean in five days, don't worry, young master."

Lu Jiangnian calculated that today was already the third day, which meant that it would be done in two days.

He raised his eyebrows and said in a light tone: "My wife is thin-skinned, don't tell her these things."

Nanny Pang naturally responded without hesitation.

On the other hand, Yuan Wanru was still thinking about lying to Lu Jiangnian and delaying her period for a few days. She didn't believe that a grown man could know how many days it would take for a woman's period to end.

As time goes by, maybe he will forget about it.
