Chapter 443: It Can’t Be Said

15 minutes later, the iron gate rumbled again.

“Bad luck, it's really bad luck.”

Still the familiar line.

The sour and decaying atmosphere emanating from the secret room also became strong again.

The expression on Liu Luanwei's face suddenly became slightly subtle. He hesitated and looked inside a few times before tentatively asking, "Your Excellency, is it possible that Li-Shi... vomited again?”

Sun Shaozong covered his nose and didn’t respond to Liu Luanwei's question. Instead, he turned his gaze to several young eunuchs and questioned suspiciously, "Is it because there was something wrong with the food you gave her? Otherwise, how could she vomit one after another?”

“How could this be possible?”

He suddenly made several eunuchs cry out, saying, “Before we feed that lowly maidservant the food, we must all taste it one by one! If something happens, it should be us who suffer with her!”

“Besides, when we were just guarding her, we didn't see anything wrong with her. It was you who came twice, and she happened to...”

“What happened after I came?”

Sun Shaozong raised his eyebrows and stared at the eunuch, questioning, "Do you still want to blame me for this?”

Under his fierce gaze, the young eunuch, although somewhat dissatisfied, didn’t dare to express his doubts in the end.

Sun Shaozong sneered a few more times and shook his black python-like sleeve without distinguishing between east, west, north, south, or even Liu Luanwei on the side. He chose a small path and left on his own.

Liu Luanwei quickly followed behind.

A few eunuchs watched as the two of them drifted away. Just now, the ”straightforward” one couldn't help but take the first few steps and spat viciously, “Spit! What's so proud of being such a bully?!”

Looking back, he saw several companions still standing outside the door. Liu Luanwei immediately gathered his chest and screamed softly, "Why are you all fooling around? Don't you hurry in and clean up the filth that Li-Shi vomited. I'll go to the kitchen to see if there's anything light and delicious so that she won't cause us any more trouble.”

As he spoke, he also swaggered away.

“Spit! What a bully.”

Little did he know that as soon as he left, the remaining three eunuchs all cursed. The four were all temporarily transferred from the Palace, not affiliated with each other, and of similar rank. Naturally, they could only distinguish between high and low based on their background.

The three of them stood silent at the same time. If there were more ”dragon bloodlines” at present, it would undoubtedly be most advantageous for Emperor Guangde, so this speculation might be true.

“But that doesn't make sense.”

However, after a while, the skeptical one couldn't help but question, "If that's what the above means, why would he choose this lowly maid? You know His Majesty and the Crown Prince both want to cut her into countless pieces. I’m afraid she is also unwilling to give birth for the Crown Prince...”

“Yes, leaving the Crown Princess and all those Royal Concubines, he chose this lowly maid.”

“Is it true that she has...”

“Isn't it that coincidental?”

“How do you know?”

They spoke with each other but didn’t dare to utter the word ”pregnant” or completely deny the possibility.

In the end, Cheng Jin hammered his voice firmly and said, "Alright! This matter is not something we can get involved in. We'll just pass this matter to Cabinet Xu and let him decide.”

Upon hearing this, the three of them all agreed, so they drew lots and selected an unlucky person, hurriedly heading towards the front hall where Cabinet Xu was located.

After Sun Shaozong left the secret room, headless flies wandered around in the back garden, and only then did he stop his steps when he saw an open area with no one in the four fields.

Looking back at Liu Luanwei, who looked like a pug, with a faint sigh, he said, "As a close courtier of the Crown Prince, Magistrate Liu was originally considered promising, but unexpectedly, you encountered such unexpected disasters for no reason. Ah, it was fate's will.”

Upon hearing this, Liu Luanwei's heart was filled with anxiety. He didn't believe that Sun Shaozong had chosen such a remote place just to say a few useless nonsense.

Therefore, he quickly increased his vigilance and said with a cautious and bitter smile, "Perhaps I should have had this disaster in my life.”

Sun Shaozong shook his head and chuckled. "Even if it's a fate destined by heaven, if you spare no effort to fight for it, how do you know that there is no life in this destiny to survive and turn danger into safety?”

This seemed to be urging oneself to make a desperate effort.

Liu Luanwei speculated in his heart, but how would he dare to listen to the instigation of strangers?

He was hesitating about how to politely excuse himself so that Sun Shaozong wouldn't make any difficult demands, but when he saw Sun Shaozong taking another big step, he didn't look back and greeted him. He said, "Let's go; accompany me to Cabinet Xu's place for a casual meal first, and then continue to investigate this case!"
