The next day, Wei Bingyan asked Aunt Yin to interrogate Ping'er about whom Wei Bingru had met before.

Ping'er is a family-born child. Her parents are servants in the mansion, and she was promoted by Aunt Lian. It is not easy for her to betray Wei Bingru, but everyone has weaknesses, it's just a matter of how to find them.

However, after being interrogated for a long time, Ping'er still refused to reveal a single word. She is truly a loyal maid.

After some deliberation, Wei Bingyan decided to give up questioning her and turned to question the servant who skillfully pulled the carriage for Wei Bingru on the night of the Lantern Festival. She was certain that Wei Bingru had indeed gone to meet someone that night.

Later, he asked the people from Guanzhuang for help and found out that the maid from the Fourth Prince's mansion also appeared in the Qingxin Teahouse that day.

It’s Shen Rouruo again... Wei Bingyan couldn’t help but think to herself, a woman like this really hasn’t given up completely, could it be that she really has a demon in her heart for Wei Zhong?

After thinking about it, Wei Bingyan felt that the possibility was not high. With Shen Rouruo's current ability, it was impossible for her to secretly assassinate Prince Chu, unless the Fourth Prince helped from behind.

What is their purpose?

After finding out that Prince Chu's death was related to the Fourth Prince, Wei Bingyan felt that this matter must not be as simple as it seemed. She wanted to discuss it with Li Yuyan, but this guy didn't know what the emperor had called him to do. The last time she went to the Li family with sincerity to look for him, she couldn't find him, and she didn't know when he would come back.

The eldest brother hasn't come back yet!

By the way, there is also the second senior brother, but... he is now the prince’s favorite, I don’t know if it will be convenient for me to meet him. Xiao Xin also doesn’t know what to do at the moment.

"Aunt Yin." Wei Bingyan called out, "Go and tell Shopkeeper Xu to find a solution. I want to meet my second senior brother."

She couldn't go to the Prince's Mansion and had no way to pass the message to her second senior brother, so she could only go through the people in Guanzhuang.

"Hey, I'm going to Guan's pharmacy now." Aunt Yin said.

The Fourth Prince's Mansion.

"Didn't you say that if we dealt with Prince Chu, the Wei and Chu families would be able to turn against each other? Now their children have become in-laws, so wouldn't everything we did before be in vain?" The Fourth Prince was holding a woman down, and one hand seemed to be leisurely playing with her black hair, with no expression that showed anger or joy.

Outside the curtain, two hazy candle lights leaped high with dazzling brilliance as big as beans. The light sprinkled lightly on the woman's body, making her snow-white and smooth skin look even more beautiful like jade.

This woman was none other than Shen Rouruo. She looked at the gloomy face of the Fourth Prince, suppressed her fear of him, and placed her weak hands on his chest. "How can it be in vain? Although the Wei and Chu families are still relatives, the Prince of Chu is dead. There must be a knot in his heart. We just need to spread the word and blame the Prince of Chu's death on the Crown Prince, and we can still achieve our goal."

"Oh? What ideas do you have?" The Fourth Prince asked nonchalantly. He couldn't say how much he liked this woman who was snatched from the Crown Prince. After all, women only played one role for him. However, such a woman's tricks were sometimes more ruthless than his, which he admired.

Shen Rouruo said, "The prince no longer has Mr. Tang to support him. All he needs to do is to turn against Wei Zhong, and then the prince will be like an embroidered pillow and will no longer be a threat to you."

"What do you mean?" asked the Fourth Prince with a frown.

"The prince is a suspicious person. He used to suspect that Mr. Tang was particularly close to the owner of the bank. Now he may also suspect that Wei Zhong and the marquis have completely betrayed him together. Therefore, he took the initiative and wanted to ruthlessly destroy the relationship between their children and relatives..." Shen Rouruo had a smile on her brows and spoke in a slightly lower voice, but her tone was chilly.

The Fourth Prince was stunned for a moment, then he immediately understood what Shen Rouruo meant and laughed, "Haha, as expected, a good strategy, not only did it make Wei Zhong and the Crown Prince completely turn against each other, but it also made the Marquis hate the Crown Prince, good!"

Shen Rouruo looked at the Fourth Prince's happy and brilliant smile and finally breathed a sigh of relief, but she felt unhappy deep down. She had taken great pains to help Wei Bingru, and when she heard from others that Wei Bingru had caused Xiao to have an unfortunate miscarriage, she felt so happy deep down.

But Xiao was so lucky that not only did she not die, she also gave birth to Wei Zhong's legitimate child...

All her plans and hard work had gone to waste, and the Fourth Prince almost stopped trusting her. Now that she had thought of this plan, she had racked her brains.

As for Wei Bingru's cry for help, she had no way to help her, so she could only let her go to the Chu family to live as a widow.

The most infuriating thing is the Xiao mother and daughter!

……

Although Wei Bingyan asked Aunt Yin to ask Manager Xu to help her meet Wang Tianbao, she couldn't meet him immediately. She could only wait for news and when Wang Tianbao would be able to come out to meet her before going to Guan's Pharmacy.

After bringing Ping'er back to Wanyuan that day, Wei Bingyan interrogated her step by step but she couldn't get her to say anything. She had already let her go back. She was not afraid that Wei Bingru would instigate Ping'er to contact Shen Rouruo, and she was even less worried that Ping'er would tell Wei Zhong that Wei Bingru could not move. Now Wei Zhong's whole heart was on A Sheng, so how could he pay attention to Wei Bingru?

After Ping'er came out of Wanyuan, she went to serve Wei Bingru. She saw Wei Bingru lying on her back on the big bed, unable to move her hands and feet. She could only open her mouth to speak. She was shocked and thought that it was Wei Bingyan who had drugged Wei Bingru, turning Wei Bingru into a waste. She couldn't help but shed tears.

"Miss, what should we do? I...I will go and tell the old man right now. If the old man knew that Miss treated you like that, he would definitely not forgive her." Ping'er held Wei Bingru's hand and spoke with tears in her eyes.

Wei Bingru sneered viciously, "What's the point of talking to him? As long as that vile bastard Wei Bingyan doesn't kill or maim me, he won't care what I become. Find a way to beg the old man and let him know how vicious that vile bastard is...

No, the old man has always been partial to Wei Bingyan, so how could he care about a cute little granddaughter born to a concubine like me. "

"Miss, do you want me to ask Concubine Shen? She...she may be able to help you." Ping'er said.

"How do you want to beg? Now, let alone stepping out of the Wei family, there is no possibility for you to even step out of the gate of the yard. Can you fly out?" Wei Bingru's voice became sharp and terrifying. The feeling of being unable to move was uncomfortable and extremely painful, but she could not think of any other way.

This won't work, that won't work, Ping'er was so anxious that she burst into tears, "What should I do, Miss?"

Wei Bingru's face was ashen, and her eyes were staring at the ceiling without any spirit. "For Jing'er, I will give up!"

Ping Er wept and said, "Miss..."

Five days passed in the blink of an eye, and the team from the Chu family that was welcoming the bride had already appeared outside the Wei family's door. There was no loud gongs and drums, no joyful atmosphere, only a soft and comfortable sedan chair carried by eight people. The one who came to pick up the delicate bride was a concubine's son from the Chu family, who replaced the deceased Prince Chu to pick up Wei Bingru.

Wei Bingyan appeared in Wei Bingru's room. She was already wearing an exquisite red wedding dress. Her pale face was painted with fragrant powder. Her tender face was bright and beautiful. If one intentionally ignored her pair of angry and resentful eyes, she was truly a refreshing bride.

"Second sister, you are so beautiful." Wei Bingyan raised her chin steadily and smiled gently. What a beauty! It's a pity that she will be a widow from now on.

"Get out!" Wei Bingru squeezed out a word from the gap between her gums.

Wei Bingyan smiled, took out a golden needle and pricked Wei Bingru twice.

Wei Bingru immediately felt a tingling pain in her hands and feet. Finally, she tried to raise her hands. When she realized that she could move, she wanted to slap Wei Bingyan.

Aunt Yin on the side immediately squeezed her hand and tapped Wei Bingru twice quickly.

"You..." Wei Bingru glared at her evilly and realized that her hands could not move again.

"After four hours, the second young lady will be able to move freely." Aunt Yin said calmly.

Wei Bingyan looked at her coldly and indifferently, "Don't think of any way to run away from your relatives. Don't forget that you are not alone."

These words pierced Wei Bingru's heart. They were indeed true. If she ran away from her parents, what would happen to Jing'er?

She couldn't bear to ignore Jing'er. The Xiao mother and daughter would not let him go. And Wei Zhong, now that he had a legitimate child, how could he care about Jing'er's life or death?

Only if she becomes a member of the Chu family and raises a child who can inherit the title with great difficulty, will she have the strength to protect Jing'er.

Wei Bingru became quiet and finally gave up.

Since Xiao was still in confinement and Wei Bingru was a widow, she did not go into the delivery room to kowtow to Xiao. However, after listening to a few stern instructions from Wei Zhong, she was taken to a soft sedan chair.

In addition to Ping'er, Wei Bingru's accompanying maid was also Xing'er.

Wei Bingyan had never thought that Wei Bingru would specifically ask for Xing'er to be the accompanying maid. Although she had no idea what she was thinking, she was going to Jinyun City anyway, so she did not refuse and gave Xing'er to her.

As the sedan was lifted up, Wei Bingyan seemed to hear soft crying coming from the soft sedan.

The sky was so blue, the clouds were bright and clear like cotton, it was such a good weather, but there was no beautiful mood. Looking at the sedan chair going farther and farther away, Wei Bingyan could not feel the slightest bit of gloating in her heart.

Don't blame her for being cruel. Everyone is self-centered. She just wants the people around her to live a better life, so she can't leave any dangerous hidden dangers at home.

She turned around without saying a word and walked into Jing'er's courtyard.

Yan'er, who was serving Jing'er, saw her, bowed, and opened the curtain for her.

On the big bed, a frail figure sat in the corner, hugging the quilt tightly, hiding his face in his knees, suppressing his own sad sobs, his shoulders shaking.

Yan'er whispered behind Wei Bingyan, "Young Master just found out about the Second Miss's grand wedding."

Wei Bingyan lowered her eyes, and suddenly felt a little sour in her heart. Wei Bingru had given up and gone to the Chu family to become a widow for Jing'er's sake. She had to be so heartless because of Asheng and her mother.

She sighed in her heart, raised her hand to let Yan'er and Bai Binghui go down, and slowly walked to the edge of the bed.

"Jing'er..." she called softly.

If she was cruel, she should take advantage of the fact that Wei Zhong was only focused on A Sheng and get rid of Jing'er completely!

"You are already grown up. I know you can't bear to leave your second sister. Your second sister is willing to marry in a grand manner, all for you. If you just hide here and cry, how can you be worthy of her? You are a seven-foot man, and you should be the one protecting your sister." Wei Bingyan said.

She shouldn't have inspired and encouraged Jing'er in that way. She should have done it in one go and defeated Jing'er so that he would become depressed and no longer pose a threat to A Sheng.

"Take good care of yourself, and don't let your aunt in heaven worry about you..." Wei Bingyan said, "Also don't let your second sister worry about you in Jinyun City."

After all, she is still...a person with an overly kind heart!

"You don't have to pretend to be sympathetic!" Wei Feng looked up, his face flushed red, tears rolling rapidly in his eyes.

Wei Bingyan looked at him and said softly, "Just think of me as a hypocritical person, but your pitiful appearance is just to make others gloat over your misfortune, isn't it?

You can continue to cry. Even if you cry until you go blind, your aunt will not survive and your second sister will not come back. Do you think your father will still love you when he sees you being useless?"

After speaking these words, Wei Bingyan left without even looking at Wei Fengjing.

He asked Yan'er, "Jing'er's condition has not improved? But has he taken the medicine on time as prescribed by the doctor?"

"We gave the young master medicine according to the doctor's instructions. Although he is feeling better now, he is still very afraid of colds. His health is not as good as before." Yan'er replied. She was dispatched by the Xiao family to take good care of Wei Fengjing, and she also paid attention to Wei Fengjing.

"Go and quickly bring me the prescription the doctor wrote for me to take a look." Wei Bingyan said.

Yan'er responded and quickly took out the doctor's prescription and gave it to Wei Bingyan to look at.

Wei Bingyan looked at the prescription and asked Yan'er to bring the ink scented calligraphy. She carefully changed the dosage of the prescription and added a few more herbs. "Go get all the herbs according to this prescription."

"Miss..." Yan'er hesitated, not knowing what Wei Bingyan meant.

"What's wrong? Do you think I will take this opportunity to kill Jing'er?" Wei Bingyan asked with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm not that stupid to use that method to deal with a child."

"I don't have the courage to do that!" Yan'er took the prescription and thought to herself, the young lady shouldn't be a vicious person, so how could she do that to Jing'er at this time? She was just thinking too much.
