Having received the Crown Prince's Wife's ingenious plan, the crown prince went to the empress's place early the next morning. Before he even entered the palace gates, he heard a pig-like howl.

"The empress is enlightened! I really did not do anything that would let the His Majesty down. This child really does belong to the His Majesty.

The mama in charge of the Phoenix Luan Palace sternly said, "Chen Yu, you lied in broad daylight. Who gave you the guts, the child of the His Majesty? Since you entered the palace, His Majesty has only been there once, and it's still last year's matter. You don't have to say that it was because you got pregnant, but it's only been two months now, and you're actually carrying Nezha. "

"No no, His Majesty came to visit me two months ago. I didn't flip through the signs, I went there by chance, right, by chance!"

"By chance?" Senior Servant Cao's laugh was a little horrifying. "Where's the evidence, hm?" I don't think even the His Majesty himself can remember it right? "

In the palace, the imperial concubine was usually recorded in the records of the internal palace. If the His Majesty was in a good mood, he might have to bestow a Sterility Soup to someone, but this Chen Jianyu, who had been silent all this while, was actually pregnant. It was impossible for her to bring out any evidence.

Moreover, there was no need for evidence at all. Eunuch Liu, who was standing in front of the His Majesty, had come to the Phoenix Luan Palace early in the morning, saying that a servant had discovered that Chen Gui had pregnant and reactions, and that the matter had somehow reached the ears of the His Majesty.

The empress had initially wanted to execute Chen Yu secretly, but she did not expect her to be so stubborn. The crowd did not have any qualms about it, and Cao mama sneered and said, "Since Yuyin refuses to drink, then don't blame me for being ruthless and dragging her away!"

A few of the eunuchs carried Chen Rou as if she was a sack. Chen Qianyu's image was completely gone, so she did not care about anything else as she struggled with all her might, "You have the guts, I want to see the His Majesty, no, I want to see the Crown Prince, do you know whose flesh and blood he is? This is the seed of the Son of Heaven in the future, who gave you the guts, Crown Prince, I want to see the Crown Prince …"

When Cao mama heard this, she was struck by lightning. "Block her mouth for me, block it!"

This was no small matter. Originally, secretly executing a palace concubine was no big deal, but if it involved the crown prince, it was taboo. Cao mama didn't dare hide it from the empress and hurried to report it to the empress.

As for the crown prince, who was just one step away from the palace gates, he turned and ran dejectedly. Why did he reveal Chen Gongyu's secret? Didn't he already drink a Sterility Soup before, how did he get pregnant?

In one breath, the Crown Prince ran back to the east palace and quickly ordered people to close the doors and refuse to meet the guests. Lady Shi was just about to set up a happy occasion, when he saw the Crown Prince running like a bear, he asked curiously: "Crown Prince, what happened to you?"

"What happened? Tell me what happened. What are you doing? Hurry up and tear it down!" The crown prince almost ran to his last breath as he tried his best to drink some milk.

"If anyone comes looking for me, tell them I'm sick. How unlucky!"

The crown prince told the Crown Prince's Wife about the situation and the latter was shocked, "Crown Prince, are you saying that you … Why are you so foolish? There are so many girls outside the palace who are not enough for you to eat, why are you still running to the imperial harem! "

"What's the use of saying this now? I'm not! Isn't she supposed to be pretty? It's all because of this bitch seducing this crown prince. Unlucky, truly unlucky!"

"Let's not panic. Didn't you say that Chen Jiu Yu only mentioned it in the Queen Mother's palace? Who would be able to hear it? You think that Mother will cover for you, ah. Father might not know about this yet."

"Yes, you're right. Imperial Mother will cover for us."

The Eastern Palace was in a state of panic while the His Majesty in the main hall was in a rage.

"I knew it was this bastard's doing!"

"His Majesty threw the teacup on the ground, and Eunuch Liu lowered his head and replied," His Majesty, do not injure your body. The Queen has already dealt with Chen Xuanyu, so this matter is over. "Just take him for a fool."

Ignorant?" "Is this a question of not understanding anything!?" His Majesty wanted nothing more than to chop that unfilial son to death with a single slash. Even a man couldn't stand a green hat, much less His Majesty. "Did the empress keep this a secret?

"Ugh …" "Yes."

Hmph, truly a woman's benevolence. If it wasn't because she was used to it, would the Crown Prince have become like this today? I heard that he asked a few days ago about a young miss at the palace banquet, and she dared to bully a boy or a girl in front of me. "But she knows whose family the crown prince is inquiring about. She is not allowed to enter the palace again.

Eunuch Liu was startled. "I don't know which family he's from, but I heard that the crown prince isn't too sure either. Otherwise, he would have …"

"Bastard!" "Send someone to the Eastern Palace to deliver the decree, punish him with half a year's worth of punishment, and not to take another girl into the Eastern Palace for a year's worth of punishment. If he still wants some face, he will know why we are punishing him!"

Not long after that, the news about the crown prince spread. There were many different kinds of news and they didn't know if it was true or not. They only knew that the crown prince was sick and that he had been sick for several days. When the day came out, Xie Cen went into the Lady Xu to talk.

"Prince Jin's Wife, have you brought up the matter of the third girl's marriage in the past few days?"

Lady Xu was surprised, "Darling, why did you ask about this again? Prince Jin's Wife hasn't come to our residence recently, it's just that some people are here to deliver some things."

"I'm afraid the matter with Third Sister will have to be settled soon."

"Where did this come from?" Could it be that old master really wants to accept the Gu family's matter, but didn't Old Madem disagree? "

"Do you know why the Crown Prince is grounded?"

"Crown Prince? What does this have to do with the crown prince? "

Xie Cen looked at Lady Xu, "You just need to know what is going on, do not go out and speak too much. Chen Gouyu, who was in the palace, disappeared a few days ago.

"An affair?" Lady Xu covered her mouth.

"Don't be surprised yet. Do you remember that at the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Crown Prince had a lot of time and time again toasted to me. That's because the Crown Prince has taken a fancy to our daughter."

"What did you say!" Lady Xu was so scared that she was about to fall sick, "Where did you hear this from, could it be that you heard wrong?"

Lady Xu thought back to the banquet that day. The two girls both went there, but Sixth Miss followed them the entire time.

"Has the crown prince taken a fancy to the third girl?"

Xie Cen sighed, "Fortunately, this matter was not seen by anyone. The crown prince did not even find out who it was, and Chen Yu's matter was known, otherwise, our Third Sister would have no choice but to marry into the Eastern Palace."

Not to mention the reputation of the crown prince, once a girl from Xie Family marries into the Eastern Palace, it would mean that Xie Cen would have to stand as a team.

"Right now, I won't be able to find a suitable family in a short period of time, and there aren't any suitable people in the Qing Liu faction. On the other hand, the Gu family member looks the safest right now."

In other words, Xie Jingxi had to be married off as soon as possible, and if the Crown Prince ever remembered it and came to his doorstep to ask to be married off, it would be impossible for him to return from the Xie Family. At the heart of the struggle, he would either marry Xie Jingxi far away from the capital, or he would simply agree to Prince Jin's Wife's marriage.

"But Old Madem …"

"Then mother will hide it for now. I'll find time to talk to Third Young Madam in private. That child is sensible and probably understanding."

Xie Jingxi had specially changed into a man's outfit. She promised to take him to the capital to take a stroll, and while the sky was fine, she made an appointment with Shen Huanzhi to go out.

"Many of the girls' grandma liked the materials I took from you last time. They wanted me to bring you more. I think this method is feasible, so you can relax and bring more."

Shen Huanzhi bowed towards Xie Jingxi, "I really don't know how to thank you. If Shen Family can develop in the capital, then you will definitely have done it again."

"No need to thank me if you don't know how to thank me. It's more important to give me something more practical. For example, give me a few pieces of cloth. I haven't finished wearing all the clothes in the whole year." Xie Jingxi teased him intentionally.

Shen Huanzhi, on the other hand, thought that it was true, "There's no need to say this, it's more than a year, it's something that can be done for a lifetime."

The smile on Xie Jingxi's face froze in place, and she realized that she was being reckless. She scratched his head awkwardly, "Actually, I have something that I did not tell you when I came to the capital."

Seeing that Xie Jingxi did not reply, Shen Huanzhi became even more embarrassed, and walked forward with his hands and feet on the ground, "I actually, Jing Wan, are you willing to let me take care of you for your entire life? Although my family's condition isn't considered good, and I don't have any achievements in my entire life, I know that I'm not worthy of you, but I will treat you well, you …"

Xie Jingxi almost wanted to laugh out loud. If last time Shen Huanzhi had said these words to her, she would probably follow him without a care in the world, leaving this man-eating place in the capital. What Xie Family and what grudges between senior and son, she could ignore them and simply follow Shen Huanzhi, deceiving herself for the rest of her life.

But in the end, it was too late. Since she had been chosen by the crown prince, unless the crown prince immediately died, or else she wouldn't be able to escape even if she were to marry Shen Huanzhi. Why did she need to pull Shen Huanzhi in? She was originally not worthy of him, not worthy of his sincerity, and not worthy of him for his entire life. She had so much on her shoulders, how could she possibly follow Shen Huanzhi for her entire life without distractions?

If she did not investigate the culprits that had killed her in her previous life, she would not be able to escape to the ends of the earth, not to mention there was still the entire Shen Family left in her possession. Why would she need to drag the crown prince to accompany her in death?

"Huanzhi." Xie Jingxi looked at Shen Huanzhi who had a face full of expectation, and heard a voice that seemed to come from far away, "Sorry, I'm already betrothed."
