Lin Shu's head exploded with a boom, as if she couldn't believe her ears. "Big Sister Man Jing, you, what did you just say?"

In his previous life, Princess Changze was only pregnant until next winter, and because of this child, she had even received a cold stare from Grand Madam. Grand Madam had directly said that less than half a year after his death, Princess Changze was already pregnant, so where was Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion given face?

It was just that at that time, with Lin Pei's protection and the fact that Princess Changze's identity was noble, it was hard for Grand Madam to say anything.

"Now you only need to tell Esteemed Empress Dowager that Princess Changze is pregnant. Although it's true that Esteemed Empress Dowager dotes on Princess Changze, it's true that this sort of disgraceful thing would ruin the imperial family's reputation if it were to spread."

"Even if the culprit behind this was a princess, he could still be imprisoned for his entire life, let alone a mere princess like the Princess Changze. Moreover, who knows who the seed in the Princess Changze's stomach belongs to? If this child's father could really meet people, how could the Princess Changze still not dare tell this matter to the empress dowager? You have to understand that Esteemed Empress Dowager's worries have turned to despair for the Princess Changze's marriage. "

Even if she had confirmed the news, she would not dare to use it to harm Princess Changze. If Princess Changze found out about this matter from her, she would definitely think of ways and means to kill her. Although she did not want to become Wang Pei's concubine, she did not want to die violently.

Furthermore, he had the support of the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion behind him, so the Princess Changze did not dare to openly scheme and kill Lin Shu. Taking a step back, even if Princess Changze did indeed kill Lin Shu, what did it have to do with her?

Lin Shu was not in the mood to think about the consequences of this matter. She only asked softly, "How did Big Sister Man Jing find out about this matter?"

Man Jing smiled slightly and said: "Even though I am a palace maid, since I have entered the palace at the age of five, I have already been in the palace for ten years. I have more or less known a few people in the palace, and we are very familiar with each other at the Raccoon Department.

Once, when the empress dowager saw that the empress dowager wanted to send the imperial physician to treat his pulse, the Princess Changze could only keep silent. But the empress dowager was concerned about his health, and directly asked me to invite the imperial physician over, since the Princess Changze was unable to do so, she could only say that I should first go to the east wing to lie down. When the imperial physician came, the Maid Du beside him only said that he had fallen asleep, so the matter of asking his pulse was delayed … But when I brought the imperial physician to the west wing, I clearly saw that the Princess Changze's voice came from inside the room. "

"Afterwards, I became even more certain. Once, I even lit a incense in Esteemed Empress Dowager's room. This pregnant woman had a huge reaction to the incense. Back then, the Princess Changze felt nauseous. Isn't he pregnant?" I have already given Fourth Miss the chance, next, it will be up to him to grasp it. "

She was not a good person. In the palace, if a person's heart was too kind, they would not live for long. All she wanted was for herself to be alive, to be able to enjoy the limelight.

Seeing that Lin Shu was still hesitating, she continued, "Now that Fourth Miss and Princess Changze are at the same stalemate, I'm afraid Fourth Miss has not seen Princess Changze's methods before, she decided that she must do it. If she wants to take Fourth Miss's life, does Fourth Miss think that she can live much longer? If I am a Fourth Miss, I will definitely agree to it. "

Lin Shu smiled as she looked at Man Jing, feeling that there really wasn't a fool in the palace. If she told this news to the Empress Dowager Wang, the Empress Dowager Wang would naturally have to invite the imperial physician to diagnose the Princess Changze's pulse. At that time, regardless of whether the Princess Changze was pregnant or not, the empress dowager would definitely vent his anger on him.

As for Man Jing, how am I supposed to be favoured in front of the Empress Dowager Wang, this matter did not affect her at all, it was truly a good plan, "I have to think carefully about this matter, just give Sister Man Jing a few days reply!"

Man Jing was not surprised at all. She nodded and said, "I believe that the ladies who are raised by the empress dowager are definitely not stupid. The Fourth Miss will definitely understand, I am waiting for Fourth Miss's letter."

Waiting for her to leave, Lin Shu held the tea Gu, and didn't recover for a long time.

After waiting for the sky to darken, she went to pay her respects to the Empress Dowager Wang. After the Princess Changze left the palace, he seemed to not be too happy, and even his expression was indifferent when he saw Lin Shu, "... If you don't know better, you might think I was harsh on you. How about this, from now on, you don't have to come and pay respects to me in the morning, and having a good night's sleep is good for you. Girls your age will always want to sleep. "

Princess Changze's eye medicine still had some effect, so the palace female Internal Service s present looked at Lin Shu with a pitiful gaze.

Lin Shu smiled and replied, as if she hadn't heard anything. "Many thanks, Esteemed Empress Dowager."

Empress Dowager Wang nodded his head, then turned and spoke to Man Jing, "Although it hasn't snowed anymore, Tian'er is still very cold. The King Rui Palace has not had anyone for a few years, so we only have Chang Ze to stay for a few days, and we don't know if that silver is enough, and so is Chang Ze. You can send some silver over, and then send over the things that Chang Ze likes to eat, and see if there is anything the King Rui Palace needs help with."

Man Jing laughed: "Oh you, don't worry, the servants and wives of the King Rui are all servants with white collars, if you do not serve the Princess Changze, will the Maid Du not order them to eat? Call this servant to say, you should take good care of it during this period of time, in case this Princess Changze sees you losing weight or losing your spirit, my heart must ache!

The Empress Dowager Wang nodded his head. "That's true, Changze is thoughtful. Before he left, he didn't forget to tell Senior Servant Pi that I need to use a bowl of milk porridge before going to bed …"

Lin Shu sat below, and felt that the Empress Dowager Wang was treating the Princess Changze with too much affection, even surpassing the Emperor …

Waiting until Empress Dowager Wang was tired, Lin Shu saluted and left. Before sshe left, he naturally did not miss Man Jing's meaningful gaze.

In merely a quarter of an hour, the news of Lin Shu being exempted from having to pay respects every morning spread like wildfire throughout the entire Tzu Ning Palace. Originally, when the palace female Internal Service s saw Lin Shu, they even went up to greet him, but now, it was as if they did not see him. There were even some who were more courageous, who stood not too far away and pointed at him.

As if she didn't see it, Lin Shu brought Actinin Qin straight back to the west wing.

When the Eighth Prince who had come to pay his respects saw this, he could not help but stop in his tracks and asked softly: "Who is this, why haven't I seen him before?"

Eighth Prince was the youngest son of Empress Zhang and had been raised by his side since childhood.

A eunuch by her side hastened to speak up. "This is Fourth Miss from the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion, the one that Esteemed Empress Dowager approached to the palace half a month ago. Originally, this servant thought she would be the same as the Princess Changze, overrated by Esteemed Empress Dowager. Who knew that she'd be unlucky …"

Eighth Prince looked at the figure that was gradually getting further and further away, standing up straight, with a neither haughty nor humble appearance. After a few more glances, he also went to pay his respects to Empress Dowager Wang.

As for Lin Shu, when she returned to the west wing, Actinin Qin hurriedly closed the door and said softly: "Miss, what should we do now? Back then Grand Madam kept saying that you'd been raised by Esteemed Empress Dowager, so even if Esteemed Empress Dowager didn't grant you a marriage, there'd be no need to worry about the wedding. But if everyone knew that Esteemed Empress Dowager couldn't like it, it'd be hard to find other marriages like this in the future … "

Lin Shu laughed bitterly and said: "Right now, I don't have the mood to think about my marriage."

Then, she told him everything that Man Jing had told her today. When Actinin Qin heard the news, she covered her mouth tightly, not wanting to make herself cry out.

After a while, Suqin said, "No wonder, no wonder Princess Changze was so anxious when he forced his to …" "Now that the Lord of Changze has a child in his womb, he probably can't hide it either. Princess Changze will definitely be ruthless, but you have to consider whether or not Esteemed Empress Dowager can personally choose this side of the story. What if Esteemed Empress Dowager decided to vent her anger on you?

"If I were to speak up for this matter, then Esteemed Empress Dowager would naturally vent her anger on me." Lin Shu was a smart person, and had already anticipated that she wouldn't have any leeway left. However, if this matter was brought up from her mouth, how would she and her mother be able to establish themselves in the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion in the future?

"I still have to think carefully about this matter. Man Jing's plan isn't feasible, and the empress dowager will hurt the Princess Changze as much as we can see, but I'm afraid that I'll tell the empress dowager about this. When the empress dowager cried out in front of the empress dowager, the empress dowager followed suit."

"If it's really like that, then we can only die, and at that time, Man Jing will probably be the first one to leave all of herself …"

Actinin Qin thought for a while, and said tentatively, "How about you tell this matter to the empress? "Esteemed Empress Dowager and Esteemed Empress Dowager have never been on good terms with each other, and even the Princess Changze didn't have much respect for Esteemed Empress Dowager. The empress wouldn't dare to disrespect the empress dowager, but it might not be that she won't do anything to Princess Changze."
