Unexpectedly, Xiao Rui said, "I specifically asked him to come and see you today, but he just gave you a look and left!" When I go back, you even play around with me, and start bullshitting! "

"How am I making up nonsense?" Cheng Zixiu glared unhappily at Xiao Rui as well, and pointed at Jiang Wan who was sitting upright on the low chair, "Look at her face, look at her appearance, isn't she fine?"

When Jiang Wan thought of what happened today, she smiled awkwardly. Just as she was about to help out Cheng Zixiu, she was stopped by Xiao Rui.

"Then at least you have to give her a safe channel." Xiao Rui looked at Cheng Zixiu and insisted.

Cheng Zixiu had also lost his temper due to Xiao Rui's banter. He took out a hospital pillow from his sleeve and placed it on the seat next to Jiang Wan, and then conveniently took out a Dan in hand to sit in front of Jiang Wan.

Jiang Wan looked at the two people in front of her who were playing with each other like children, covering her face with a smile, and also very cooperatively placed her wrist on the doctor's pillow.

Cheng Zixiu placed his finger on Jiang Wan's wrist. He, who was originally indifferent, suddenly frowned, and even shook his head from time to time, letting out hissing sounds.

Jiang Wan was a little nervous because of him. She looked at Cheng Zixiu with a puzzled face, thinking to herself, "Is there really something wrong with my body that even I don't know about?"

Xiao Rui Xuan was even more anxious. He sat down on the other side of the short chair, and stared at Cheng Zixiu: "What's wrong? But what's wrong? "

Cheng Zixiu frowned as he shook his head and said, "Not right, not right."

Jiang Wan looked at Xiao Rui, a bit flustered, only to see that he also had a face full of worry.

"Do you want to take some soup to recuperate yourself?" Xiao Rui asked nervously as she subconsciously held Jiang Wan's hand.

Cheng Zixiu glanced at Xiao Rui and shook his head with a dark expression.

This caused even Jiang Wan's heart to sink. Did she really get some kind of medicine or medicine that couldn't be cured?

"That's not right, that's not right at all," Cheng Zixiu continued to shake his head. "Since she fell into the water today, she didn't even seem to have fainted or caught a cold. It's not right at all."

When Xiao Rui heard this, he reacted and punched Cheng Zixiu in the chest: "You're lying to me?"

Cheng Zixiu glared back at Xiao Rui, saying arrogantly, "I already told you I was fine. If you don't believe me, I'll tell you. What else can I do?"

Hearing that, Jiang Wan couldn't help but laugh. Knowing that she was fine, she too let out a huge sigh of relief.

Xiao Rui embarrassedly coughed, then asked Jiang Wan the reason why she fell into the water today.

Because the one who asked the question was Xiao Rui, without her previous misgivings, Jiang Wan told her about what happened today.

Xiao Rui listened to Jiang Wan's story with a calm expression, and clenched her hands into fists inside her sleeves.

Two days later, something unexpected happened in the Crown Prince's Palace.

A woman on duty at Liufang Dock was found drowned in the lake outside the gate. When she was fished out, her body still emitted a disgusting smell of alcohol, clearly having drunk too much yellow soup and falling into the lake to drown.

When this matter was brought to Jiang Wan's ears like a topic of conversation, her heart thumped loudly, thinking to herself: "Did Xiao Rui make his move?"

In the inner courtyard of the Hall of the Nine Orchids, there were beautiful flowers and tall trees.

Cui Yingying, who was carrying a big belly, was not in the mood to appreciate such a beautiful scenery. She frowned as she anxiously walked into the room. A set of pink and white porcelain cups and saucers were also smashed into pieces due to her previous anger.

The palace maids who were on duty in the room were all extremely bitter. They had no idea what was going on, so they could only hide to the side, afraid of offending the angry Cui Liandi.

Silence reigned in the entirety of the Jaded Orchid Palace.

Xia He, who was serving his own wife closely, looked at her worriedly.

Ever since the news of Old Lady Xia falling into the water at Liufang Dock, the Empress had changed into this appearance.

However, what she could not understand was why the Empress had become so uneasy after the death of that crude old servant.

At this moment, nanny Wang, who wore a bun and carried a wooden stick, was supported by two court ladies on her left and right as she limped along the stone path in front of the courtyard.

The sharp-eyed little palace maid hurriedly lifted the curtain for her, and when Xia He saw this, he also quickly went up to welcome her.

"Grandma, why don't you rest for another two days?" Xia He and the curtained palace maid held hands and said politely as they supported Senior Servant Wang.

Because Wang mama had been given a plank by the crown prince a few days ago, Cui Yingying had specifically instructed her to rest in bed for a period of time.

"It doesn't matter. The wounds on my body are just to scare people, but they aren't serious at all." Senior Servant Wang smiled and said to Xia He, "For the sake of the Empress, the people in the torture chamber didn't do anything too serious."

Then she pointed to the inner room and asked, "Is the Empress here?"

Xia He nodded with a troubled expression and said softly, "The Empress is not in a good mood today."

Wang mama nodded and lightly patted Xia He's hand. She smiled and said, "I'll go and advise her. I'll have to trouble Miss Xia to guard the door and not let anyone in."

Xia He nodded tacitly, then waved to the palace maids on duty in the room, causing everyone to follow Xia He silently out of the room, as if a heavy burden had been lifted off their shoulders.

"Empress!" Once Wang mama entered the room, she threw the wooden stick she was holding to the side and kneeled down without a word. "Even if you don't want to think for yourself, think about the little prince in your belly!" "Don't you dare be angry and hurt your body!"

Once Cui Yingying heard Wang mama's voice, she could no longer hold it in.

She walked to Wang mama with two steps, one after the other. His legs gave out and he knelt down as well.

"Wang mama, what should we do?" "Why did that old woman Xia suddenly drown?" Cui Yingying nervously grabbed Wang mama's hand, "Did someone discover the matter of us asking her to capsize the boat the other day …"

"How could there be such a coincidence!" Senior Servant Wang patted Cui Yingying's hands and consoled her, "It must be because she received the Empress's small money and was so drunk that she forgot her shape and fell into the water. Otherwise, how could she drown in the water with her good swimming skills?"

When Cui Yingying heard this, she felt that what Senior Servant Wang said made sense.

However, she still looked worriedly at Wang mama. "But she's dead now …" "Then her secret …"

"I'm fine!" Wang mama, however, said very indifferently, "She'll definitely be randomly wrapped up by someone and thrown into an unmarked cemetery. No one will discover her secret …"
