"No way! You can't even go back to the Song family!"

Lin Ruoqing didn't want to miss this opportunity, having let Song Wanqing off the hook last time.

"Auntie, save me! Auntie, save me!"

Song Wanqing could only place her hopes on the Ye family.

"How can I protect you after you've done something like this?"

Madam Ye knew that she could no longer have any involvement with Song Wanqing at this time, and even though she was reluctant, she had to harden her heart.

Seeing through Ye's thoughts, Song Wanqing looked at He Zhilin and saw that he was looking at her with disgust. She then looked at Lin Ruoqing, who looked like she couldn't wait to kill her.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Song Wanqing suddenly burst into laughter, her appearance somewhat deranged.

Ye was so frightened that she took a step back.

"You, you, you... It's all your fault! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be in this ghastly state now!"

Song Wanqing pointed to Ye Shi, He Zhilin, and Lin Ruoqing.

He Zhilin said with disgust, "It's your own viciousness that makes you have the nerve to blame others!"

His words deeply stung Song Wanqing.

"Me, vicious? If it weren't for you, how could I have become like this!" Song Wanqing said, pointing at Ye Shi, "And you too!"

Ye thought Song Wanqing had gone mad; otherwise, how could someone who was usually so well-behaved have turned into this?

"You keep saying you're doing this for my own good, but you won't let me marry my cousin. If you had betrothed me to my cousin, none of this would have happened!"

Song Wanqing blamed all the mistakes on Ye Shi.

Madam Ye looked at her niece in disbelief. She had been so good to her, yet her niece was blaming her like this.

"I can't make decisions about Erlang's marriage. Besides, I'm not asking you to be Erlang's concubine; it's your own refusal!"

"A concubine? What nonsense! A concubine is just a concubine! I am a lady of noble birth, a legitimate daughter, how could I possibly be a concubine!"

For Song Wanqing, being a concubine was an insult to her.

Ye said angrily, "You heartless bastard! I've always been so good to you!"

"Are you really being nice to me? You look down on me from the bottom of your heart. You're just pitying me. I don't care about your pity!"

Ye was so angry she almost fainted. She had been good to her for over a decade, and this was how she thought of her?

Song Wanqing has now completely broken ties with the Ye family.

Lin Ruoqing watched the show from the sidelines; she disliked neither Ye Shi nor Song Wanqing.

The servants in the courtyard had all signed their death sentences and dared not speak out of turn; they all lowered their heads and dared not even breathe.

"Cousin, why is your yard so lively?"

A woman's voice stood out starkly in the quiet environment.

Jiang Shuwan and Du Siyu walked side by side.

When Madam Ye saw Jiang Shuwan, she felt a pang of regret. How could she have forgotten that Princess Yongning had come to the mansion today?

Neither He Zhilin nor Lin Ruoqing knew that Jiang Shuwan had come to the Huian Marquis's residence, but Madam Ye did.

The He family members all bowed to Jiang Shuwan.

"Greetings, Princess Yongning."

Jiang Shuwan smiled and nodded.

"Mother, second brother and sister-in-law."

Du Siyu greeted the three people in the courtyard, and then she saw Song Wanqing and exclaimed in surprise.

"Why is she here?"

Ye frowned because she didn't want Jiang Shuwan to see her family make a fool of themselves.

He Zhilin didn't want Jiang Shuwan to see these things either.

"Please come this way, Princess."

Jiang Shuwan nodded, feigning ignorance, "Okay."

"stop!"

Song Wanqing suddenly spoke up.

Because she recognized Jiang Shuwan's voice.

"It was you! You sent people to kidnap me!" Song Wanqing said as she walked up to Jiang Shuwan.

Jiang Shuwan turned her head blankly and asked, "Cousin, who is this?"

Du Siyu introduced, "This is Song's cousin."

Then she said, "Cousin Song, you're being so rude!"

Fearing that Song Wanqing might bump into Jiang Shuwan, He Zhilin quickly had Song Wanqing pulled away.

Jiang Shuwan looked at He Zhilin and asked, "Cousin Song, what happened?"

"It's just a small matter." After He Zhilin finished speaking, he said to Du Siyu, "Sister-in-law, quickly take the princess away from here, so as not to disturb her."

Du Siyu nodded and said to Jiang Shuwan, "Big cousin, I'll take you for a walk in the garden."

"Okay."

Just as Jiang Shuwan was about to turn and leave, Song Wanqing suddenly broke free from the servants and stabbed Jiang Shuwan with a dagger.

Feiyue, quick-witted and agile, pushed Jiang Shuwan away, "Princess, be careful!"

Jiang Shuwan and Du Siyu were pushed to the ground.

Lin Ruoqing seized the opportunity to snatch the dagger from Song Wanqing and stabbed her in the abdomen.

Song Wanqing stared wide-eyed at the knife in her abdomen, then looked at Lin Ruoqing.

"what!!!!"

Ye cried out in fright.

When Huianbo and Song's father arrived, they saw Song Wanqing trying to stab Jiang Shuwan with a dagger, but instead was stabbed back by Lin Ruoqing.

The courtyard was in chaos.

Feiyue quickly helped Jiang Shuwan up.

Jiang Shuwan was fine, but when she was about to fall, Du Siyu saw her and reached out to pull her up, resulting in both of them falling down.

Du Siyu frowned and said, "My stomach hurts so much!"

Jiang Shuwan looked anxious. "Quickly, go and call a doctor!"

Pearl ran off to find a doctor.

Then Jiang Shuwan noticed Song's father standing to the side.

"Imperial Physician Song!"

When Song's father heard the princess call him, he quickly walked towards her.

***

Du Siyu's Courtyard

Du Siyu lay on the bed, her face pale. Jiang Shuwan had foreseen everything today, and she never expected that Du Siyu was pregnant. Thinking about how Jiang Shuwan had reached out to pull her just now, she felt a little guilty.

Song Wanqing is dead, killed by Lin Ruoqing. Du Siyu discovers she is pregnant. The Earl of Huian is fluctuating between anger and joy.

"Cousin, take good care of yourself. If you feel unwell, please tell me. When I return to the manor, I will find a good doctor to take care of you at the manor until you give birth safely."

"Thank you very much, cousin."

"I won't disturb your rest any longer. I'll come see you another day."

Du Siyu nodded; she really didn't have the energy to take care of her older cousin at that moment.

After leaving Du Siyu's courtyard, Jiang Shuwan went to the front hall.

Everyone who was there just now is here.

When Jiang Shuwan arrived, everyone bowed to her.

Jiang Shuwan's face turned ashen, and no one dared to utter a sound.

"I don't come here often, I had no idea the Huian Marquis's residence was so dangerous!"

Marquis Hui'an explained, "Princess, please calm down. It was all a misunderstanding."

Jiang Shuwan is a princess personally appointed by the emperor. If anything happens to her at the Huian Earl's Mansion, the Grand Princess and the emperor will not let her off the hook.

Jiang Shuwan sneered, "Misunderstanding? Someone tried to stab me in broad daylight, and the Earl of Huian is telling me it's a misunderstanding?"

Marquis Hui'an never expected Song Wanqing to be so bold today.

"The one who assassinated the princess was the daughter of Physician Song."

Huianbo started shifting the blame.

Physician Song rushed forward, "That madwoman is indeed my daughter, but she has always been gentle. How could her personality have changed so drastically after she moved into the Earl's mansion?!"

Physician Song shifted the blame back to the emperor.

"Physician Song, what you're saying..."

Jiang Shuwan interrupted him angrily, "That's enough!"

"I don't want to get involved in your family's affairs. I hope Marquis Huian can give me an explanation for this matter. I'm tired and I'm going back to my residence first." Jiang Shuwan didn't want to listen to their bickering.
