After giving birth to twins, the princess became pregnant again, and the royal uncle took care of he

So the female physician, who had been waiting nearby, quickly went to examine Chu Xingyao. Her fingers gently tapped on Chu Xingyao's pulse, her brows furrowed, her heart filled with worry.

She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, before slowly speaking.

"General Chu, Madam Chu, Miss Chu's injuries..."

The female healer's voice trembled; she could sense the intense aura emanating from Chu Huaizhong and the Chu brothers.

It was a kind of majesty that only those who had experienced life and death on the battlefield possessed.

Chu Huaizhong's expression grew increasingly grave, his eyes flashing with anger, but even more so with worry for his daughter. His voice was low, carrying an undeniable firmness:

"Female doctor, I don't care what method you use, you must cure my daughter."

The female healer nodded, knowing the weight of the responsibility she bore. She continued:

"Miss Chu's pulse is weak, indicating that she is malnourished and physically frail."

"In addition, she fell into the water in the cold, and the cold air entered her body, which caused great harm to her body."

"I'm afraid she'll have some difficulties with having children in the future, and she might have to suffer a bit every time she gets her period."

Chu Huaizhong and Qin Hanyue's faces turned pale instantly; they couldn't accept this fact.

Chu Xingchi and Chu Xingyi's anger erupted like a volcano; they could not tolerate their sister being tortured like this and facing future suffering.

"This is utterly lawless!" Chu Xingchi roared, slamming his fist on the table with a loud thud.

"I will find those bastards and make them pay!"

Although Chu Xingyi was young, his eyes burned with anger: "Big brother, let's go together. We can't let our little sister suffer in vain."

Qin Hanyue's tears flowed uncontrollably, her voice filled with self-reproach:

"It's all my fault. I failed to protect Xingyao and let her suffer like this."

Chu Huaizhong held his wife's hand tightly, his eyes filled with determination: "This is not your fault, it is the responsibility of our whole family."

We will work together to protect Xingyao and ensure she is never harmed again.

The female doctor quickly wrote down the prescription; her hands trembled, but her heart was filled with determination.

She said:

"These medications may not cure the young lady's illness, but they can at least alleviate her pain."

"To make her life easier in the future."

Chu Huaizhong accepted the prescription, his eyes filled with gratitude: "Thank you. The Chu family will remember your kindness."

Just then, a commotion suddenly broke out outside the door.

Everyone turned to look, and saw Zhang Shi with a smile on her face, followed closely by the pitiful Chu Xinglan, walking slowly towards them.

As soon as Zhang entered the door, she put on a pained and insincere expression and said:

"Oh my goodness, my dear niece Xingyao, you've finally woken up!"

"After learning about your misfortune, I was worried sick every day, fearing that something bad might happen to you."

However, Xinglan fell ill after falling into the water and remained unconscious during her illness.

Auntie, I've been too busy taking care of myself to come see you, sigh... it's all my fault!

After saying this, Zhang paused briefly, then continued:

"However, after a thorough investigation, the truth has finally come to light."

"So, it was all because of that lowly maid named Ziyuan beside Lan'er! She was worried that you would steal the Prince of Yan away, so she took it upon herself to push you into the water,"

"It was only because your and Lan'er's robes got tangled that you both fell into the water, suffering so much for no reason! Your aunt has already had her beaten to death."

However, faced with Zhang's far-fetched explanation, Chu Xingyao merely smiled coldly and mercilessly exposed her lies:

"Zhang, how could you come up with such a flimsy excuse to try and get away with this! And why is Ziyuan specifically targeting me?"

"Could it be that a mere maidservant would dare to act on her own? Someone must be secretly instigating this!"

Upon hearing this, Chu Xinglan's face turned deathly pale, but she quickly recovered.

He immediately knelt down with a thud, and began to sob, tears streaming down his face:

"Sister, it's all my fault! It's because I've neglected to discipline the servants that this mess has happened today."

"I know I have committed grave sins and dare not ask for your forgiveness. I only beg you to be merciful and spare me this time!"

The younger sister should kowtow to her older sister now to apologize and show her sincerity!

Before he finished speaking, Chu Xinglan began to kowtow repeatedly. The sound of his forehead hitting the ground was particularly clear and jarring in the quiet room.

Chu Huaizhong was so angry that he puffed out his beard and glared at his opponent, shouting loudly:

"Enough! Xinglan, stop putting on this act. I've had enough of your hypocritical face!"

Qin Hanyue, standing to the side, was also furious. Her eyebrows furrowed, her almond-shaped eyes widened, and she pointed at Chu Xinglan, shouting in a delicate voice:

"If Xingyao is not given justice today, I, Qin Hanyue, will not let this go! Even if it costs me everything, I will make the truth known to the world!"

At this moment, Chu Xingyao, who had been silent all along, finally raised her head. Her gaze swept firmly over everyone present, and then she slowly spoke:

"I will not let this matter rest easily. I will report it to the authorities for a thorough investigation. No matter who is behind this or how powerful they are, I will find them and clear my name!"

Zhang and Chu Xinglan's expressions turned extremely ugly. They clearly hadn't expected Chu Xingyao to be so resolute, even going so far as to report the matter to the authorities for a thorough investigation.

Chu Xinglan unconsciously gripped the hem of her clothes tightly with both hands, her lips trembled slightly, and her eyes revealed a trace of fear and panic.

Looking into his daughter's resolute eyes, Chu Huaizhong felt a complex mix of emotions welling up inside him. He took a deep breath and said in a low voice:

"My dear, Daddy supports you. No matter the outcome, Daddy will always be on your side."

Chu Xingchi and Chu Xingyi both nodded, indicating that they would fully support their sister.

Chu Xingchi looked coldly at Chu Xinglan, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes:

"Little sister, don't worry, your big brother will definitely help you find out the truth."

Chu Xinglan felt Chu Xingchi's gaze and her body trembled involuntarily.

She turned to look at Zhang, hoping she could come up with a solution to the situation.

However, Zhang's expression was equally unpleasant; she clearly hadn't expected Chu Xingyao to be so resolute.

Just then, the old lady slowly walked into the room surrounded by people.

A hint of displeasure crossed her face, clearly indicating her dissatisfaction with airing her dirty laundry in public.

"Family scandals should not be aired in public; there's no need to report it to the authorities." The old lady's voice, though not loud, carried an undeniable authority.

"So Chu Huaizhong left his two sons to take care of Chu Xingyao, and then went with Qin Hanyue,"

"And the second son, Chu Huaiyi, and the second wife, Zhang, along with Chu Xinglan, as well as all the concubines, illegitimate sons and daughters, went to the front hall for trial in a grand procession."
