Lin Shu pursed her lips, pretending to be extremely terrified.

"Then, I will forgive you!" The Empress Dowager Wang had always had an eye disease, and now, the image of the Old Prince Rui admonishing the late emperor to raise his son as his Crown Prince with his death was still fresh in his mind. That warm and gentle face overlapped with the miserable and pale face of Changze, making her unable to differentiate between the two.

Furthermore, even a cat or dog would have feelings for him, not to mention a living person like Changze, the Empress Dowager Wang still wanted to protect Princess Changze and her child in her womb. "Pi mama, bring everyone in the house away!"

Other than Empress Zhang and Man Jing, Pi mama had brought everyone else from the house.

Only then did Lin Shu look at Empress Dowager Wang, and said word by word. This is your nephew, Master Wang Pei! "

Empress Dowager Wang's hands suddenly trembled, this news was as shocking as the news about Princess Changze being pregnant, what was Wang Pei? He was in his twenties and had achieved nothing in his career. However, he had more than ten concubines with him. Originally, he had a wife by his side. However, a year ago, he suddenly fell ill and died.

A violent death?

When Empress Dowager Wang heard this, she could not help but sneer. She had crawled and thrashed about in the palace for most of his life, how could he not know that this was just an excuse. Her family had wanted to make a ruckus, but she suppressed them.

Changze, how can you like such a person?

Empress Dowager Wang did not speak. Lin Shu also knelt on the ground, her head lowered, not daring to speak.

However, from the corner of her eyes, she saw that Princess Changze's hand seemed to be moving, as if he was trying to grab onto something.

However, there was only Lin Shu by her side now, so no one paid attention to her.

After a long while, the Empress Dowager Wang finally said slowly: "How did you know about this?" Even if there was someone who blocked Wang Pei and Princess Changze's path, given her protective personality, he would not believe it.

Lin Shu said softly: "I, I am only guessing, that Princess Changze is in the east wing, and I am in the west wing. Ever since I entered the palace, I have frequently went to find Master Wang, and the Princess Changze only left Senior Servant Pi in the house, and chased the rest of the servants out for two hours. At that time, I already felt that something was amiss, but I did not know if there were any matters that Princess Changze wanted to discuss with Master Wang, but after thinking about it carefully, I am afraid that there were already clues, but I have always been timid, and do not dare to discuss the matters between the Princess Changze and Master Wang."

Empress Dowager Wang did not speak again.

Although he was old and had eyes, she was not stupid. Recently, Wang Pei had been too diligent in coming to the Tzu Ning Palace and was not like before, only asking her for money, asking for her support. At that time, she felt that it was strange, but Wang Pei had only kept on acting good in front of her, trying to get something out of her, saying that he was here to be filial to her.

At that time, she didn't think much of it, and there were even several times when she saw Wang Pei's and Zhang Ze's gazes colliding. The two seemed to have something to say, but at that time, she didn't think much of it …

The more Empress Dowager Wang thought about it, the more he felt that something was amiss.

The corner of Empress Zhang's mouth curved into a faint smile. She didn't understand why Princess Changze would mix with that idiot Wang Pei, but she was still very satisfied with the result. Now, he even wanted to step forward and step on him. Should he keep the child or not? Just call me concubine, Lord Wang Pei grew up with Princess Changze, and we can be considered childhood friends. Coincidentally, Lord Wang gave his wife away one year ago, so it's good that you're marrying him into the Princess Changze now. "

After saying that, she picked up the tea Gu and took a sip, then said slowly: "It must be because Sir Wang wanted to mourn for my wife for a year, I did not propose marriage to you, King Rui, but now … However, Princess Changze can't drag this on anymore, and should have settled this marriage sooner, or else I won't be able to hide it anymore. " If this were to drag on, it would really become a joke for the royal family.

Empress Dowager Wang slammed the table in anger, the armor on his pinky hit the side of the table, causing it to hurt, Man Jing wanted to step forward to take a look, but was stopped by a wave of her hand, "Since it's like this, then I'll tell Emissary Xu to come in and take care of the child inside Zhang Ze's womb … Save it! "

She had an indescribable feeling in her heart. She felt that this child was someone she had watched grow up and was doted upon by everyone. Who was he to dislike, to actually fall in love with Wang Pei? Even if it was her nephew, she felt that he was someone who would not be able to help out. He was much weaker than the Duke Chengan.

Although the Duke Chengan did not have much ability, he relied on his ancestor's shadow to act honestly.

However, the Empress Zhang said with a smile, "Esteemed Empress Dowager, please don't get angry. Although there are circumstances that exceed those of the Princess Changze, it's a good thing that you didn't collude with that married man. Otherwise, you'd have a headache! Now that the marriage for Princess Changze has been arranged, we can wait for the child in Princess Changze's womb to be born next fall. I don't know if it's a brother or sister, or if it looks like Lord Wang or the Princess Changze … "

How could Empress Dowager Wang not hear the hidden meaning behind Empress Zhang's words? Just that on this matter, even if she wanted to defend Chang Ze, how could he explain it?

In the end, she only left one sentence, "Take good care of Princess Changze" before storming off.

Now, Empress Zhang could be considered to have completely unable to conceal the joy on his face. He even came close to look at Princess Changze, and didn't forget to tell Apostle Xu, "Apostle Xu, please be more careful. This is Princess Changze's first birth, if it delays his body, it will be difficult for him to get pregnant again.

Apostle Xu hurriedly replied and the movements of his subordinates became even more cautious.

Empress Zhang only felt that this meal was really satisfying, and laughed, then he instructed Lin Shu: "Now, seeing Princess Changze's body, I am afraid it will be difficult to move back to the east wing, but Princess Changze cannot not have someone to help you out, if that is the case, you will stay here to take care of Princess Changze, and I will leave first."

Lin Shu bent her knees in respect and sent Empress Zhang away.

The only people left in the room were Lin Shu, Emissary Xu and the Princess Changze lying on the sickbed. For a moment, the entire room was very quiet.

When Lin Shu heard the snow sweeping noise from the palace maid outside, she took out a cup of tea and sat on the brick bed, this matter was much more successful than she had imagined, even the Maid Du did not appear, if there was the Maid Du here, with Maid Du's sharp mouth, perhaps she and Man Jing would be able to stabilize the situation today, who knew, but when the Princess Changze wakes up, wouldn't it cause another commotion?

Little did she know that at this time, Maid Du was actually being sent by the Princess Changze to guard the movement over at the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion area.

Princess Changze drank a bowl of medicine, and in less than an hour, he had already slowly opened his eyes.

There was naturally a small palace maid guarding the room, upon seeing this, she immediately shouted: "Miss Lin, Miss Lin, Princess Changze has woken up." Lin Shu was only a ten year old girl. Empress Zhang said that she was required to be taken care of here, but that was only to wait for Princess Changze to wake up and chat with her to relieve her boredom.

Lin Shu immediately went over and saw that Princess Changze's narrow and long almond-like eyes were filled with hatred. However, the moment she said those words, her imposing manner was weaker than usual. "Lin Shu, you slut …"

Lin Shu hurriedly raised her voice to the few young palace maids in the room and said, "Now that Princess Changze has awoken, all of you go report this to the empress dowager and empress dowager so that they won't worry."

The little palace maid hesitated before leaving.

Princess Changze started cursing loudly, "Did I hear what you said just now? The child in my stomach belongs to Wang Pei? Heh, Lin Shu, you know better than anyone who has the child in my stomach. You, how dare you lie with your eyes closed? "Believe it or not, I'll immediately call Esteemed Empress Dowager over and tell her about this and beat you to death …"

Lin Shu did not interrupt her, waiting for her to say that she was tired, so she lowered his voice.

In the end, Lin Shu said: "It's precisely because I know who the child in your womb belongs to that I would say that. What, only you are allowed to harm others, don't you allow others to fight against you? "You were just sleeping just now. I'm sure you understand what Esteemed Empress Dowager meant. Esteemed Empress Dowager is already disappointed enough with you for this matter. Do you think Esteemed Empress Dowager will allow you to keep the child after someone else knows about your biological father?"

"Yes, the empress dowager dotes on you. Perhaps she might allow you to keep this child for the sake of the Old Prince Rui, but what about the empress dowager? Everyone present already knew that you were pregnant, and I'm afraid they know that you're the king's flesh and blood. If you were to suddenly say that this child belongs to my father, how do you think others would talk about you? Even though the empress had always been obedient to the empress dowager, that was all because of filial piety. Do you think that she would damage the imperial family's reputation because of you alone? "When the time comes, everyone will say that not only do you have secrets of Lord Wang, you're also involved with my father. When the time comes, how will you explain it …"

Princess Changze had always been used to being strong, but now that he was weaker than before, "I, why would I take a fancy to Wang Pei that idiot?"

"I don't know if you like His Royal Highness, but during this period of time, you and His Royal Highness have been intimate, and this is something that everyone in the Tzu Ning Palace has witnessed. The empress dowager isn't an idiot, so she must ask around, so she knows better than anyone else." Lin Shu's lips curled into a smile, and said slowly: "Now, you can only accept this marriage, and can only protect the child in your womb, if you confess to the child's father, even if you can live, and marry my father in the future, the child will not be able to stay alive …"
