Chapter 45: The Desireless Prince vs. the Scheming Concubine in the Buddhist Temple 21

When Father Bai ran into the Yunshui Pavilion where Qingrui was in a panic, Qingrui had already fainted with a pale face. The room was filled with a strong smell of blood, reminding everyone who followed them what had just happened?

A white-haired old doctor used a silver needle to stop Qingrui's bleeding in two or three strokes, and then began to examine her body. As he had long been benefited by the Chu family, he naturally attributed everything to Qingrui's own lack of blood and qi.

Seeing this, Meng Jiao sneered and stepped forward to interrupt.

"Is that true? Meng Jiao has brought a doctor here today, why not let Doctor Chen take your pulse as well?"

Bai Zhanxiong looked at Doctor Chen who came in with surprise.

Why does this person look familiar?

Doctor Chen was first given a hallucinogenic pill by Meng Jiao, which made him terrified. Then he was beaten by Han Yan. Now he numbly knelt beside the bed to check Qingrui's pulse. He had no reaction to Bai Zhanxiong's surprised look.

Seeing the doctor brought by Meng Jiao really re-checking the pulse, the old man kneeling beside her changed his expression and became angry.

"You are so rude, woman. I have been practicing medicine for decades, but it is only because you, the Bai family, have come to me many times that I have the time to come here.

You dare to question me like this? Please forgive my lack of knowledge. I will take my leave now. From now on, even if you in the Bai Mansion beg me to come, I will not come!"

After he finished speaking, he stood up and packed his luggage, looking like he had been wronged and didn't want to stay any longer.

The green radish that followed him shouted at him.

"How dare you! The queen is Bai Liangdi of the Eastern Palace. You, an old man, can't call her a woman!"

Meng Jiao waved her hand and looked calmly at the old man who knelt on the ground in shock after learning his identity.

"Doctor Fang, don't worry. What if my pulse diagnosis is the same as yours?"

The old man's heart trembled when he heard this. Why did she know his last name was Fang? He felt a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart.

After taking the pulse, Doctor Chen picked up the fragments on the floor and smelled them, then kowtowed to the prince and Meng Jiao.

"Your Highness, Consort Liang, the woman on the bed must have taken a combination of safflower, schisandra, and rhizoma achyranthis Bidentatae before she had a miscarriage, which is why she had a miscarriage in less than half a cup of tea."

"Who? Who is it? Someone, go check who brought this bowl of medicine. Bring all the people who may have come into contact with this bowl of medicine here!"

Bai Zhanxiong's face was gloomy, his mind was full of the fact that the legitimate son he had been waiting for so long was gone, and he was filled with resentment.

Meng Jiao was neither anxious nor impatient. She leaned on Pei Jinye with a tired look and closed her eyes waiting.

Pei Jinye was stunned for a moment when Meng Jiao approached him, then he quickly hugged her in his arms and watched everything coldly.

After a while, Chu, who got the news, rushed over. Looking at the servants and maids kneeling in the yard, she couldn't help but frown. She also wanted to know what was going on. The dosage she took was clearly a chronic medicine, so how could she suddenly have a miscarriage? Anxious, she ran to check the situation.

Father Bai asked someone to move a chair and sat on the steps. He ordered his men to interrogate each of them one by one in a cold voice. When Chu came, Pei Jinye was helping Meng Jiao sit on the stool arranged by Father Bai. Behind them, there were two doctors.

Chu first politely saluted the prince and Meng Jiao, then when her eyes met the two people coming out from behind, her pupils instantly dilated.

Soon, the interrogation came to an end. The kitchen nanny and Qingrui's personal maid were the ones who had the most contact with the bowl of medicine.

The nanny claimed that she was only boiling the medicine package prepared by the doctor, and she never opened the lid of the furnace except adding water, so the problem must be the maid.

The maid's eyes were evasive. She was just a little girl. Chu ordered her to add things to the medicine every day. Even if she was stupid, she knew that it must not be the so-called tonic.

"I didn't do anything. I just gave the pregnancy-preserving medicine to Aunt Rui. I don't know anything."

Bai Zhanxiong was a seasoned official who had been in the government for more than a decade. Seeing the little maidservant was timid, he threatened her.

"You're lying! It was you who put the abortion pills into the medicine bowl when Aunt Rui wasn't paying attention. How dare you quibble?"

Chu stood aside, her palms sweating. The girl had just received her instructions not long ago, and she had not yet been able to control all of the girl's family members. She had never expected that Qingrui would suddenly have a miscarriage. What was going on?

Meng Jiao looked at Chu's gradually pale face with amusement. All this was planned after she learned about the situation from the system. Today was the day when the little girl got the new medicine from her, so it didn't matter whether it was medicine for acute abortion or not. What mattered was that Chu was not a first offender.

The little maid kowtowed in fear. Qingrui, who had just woken up after the bleeding stopped,

Her weak but firm voice came from the room.

"Master, it's her. She brings me the pregnancy-preserving medicine every day. It must be her."

Qingrui could no longer feel the pain, and she tried to hold herself up and go out to finish the show. Mengjiao hurriedly got up and pushed her back onto the bed, while Bai Zhanxiong stepped forward to comfort her.

Seeing that the little girl could not hold on any longer, Chu gave a look to the nanny beside her. While everyone's attention was in the house, the nanny quietly went towards the courtyard where the little girl lived. However, she was caught by Han Yan who had been waiting for a long time.

So Han Yan simply took people to search all the things in the maid's room and took them away, and at the same time took the old nanny to the open space for interrogation.

Following the old nanny's scream, Bai's father, who had coaxed Qingrui into submission, ran out and saw Chu's personal nanny kneeling on the ground with disheveled hair.

He had already realized something was wrong, and spoke to the equally panicked Chu.

"Ms. Chu, what exactly is going on? Why would your personal nanny secretly go to the maid's room while I was interrogating her?"

Han Yan stepped forward and reported everything.

"Your Highness, this woman sneaked into the maid's room without telling anyone, intending to destroy the evidence. I also found these in the room."

As he spoke, a golden hairpin that the little maid could never possibly have and medicine bags that had been distributed in advance fell out from a few packages.

Bai Zhanxiong's eyes were red, looking at Chu's pale face, what else did he not understand?

He strode forward and kicked Chu, who was sitting on the chair, in the chest.

"Bitch! It's really you!"

Chu felt a heat in her throat. She had never expected Bai Zhanxiong to be so cruel. This kick made her fall to the ground and unable to breathe for a long time.

When she recovered, she hurriedly and anxiously explained,

"Master, it's not me, Master. I was just a little shocked. This has nothing to do with me."

Father Bai glanced at the trembling old doctor and pointed at Doctor Chen who was standing beside him and said,

"You, go check, what's in that medicine bag?"

Doctor Chen walked forward like a zombie, opened the powder bag of one of the medicines and said,

"My Lord, this is Red Flower."

The language is clever, without explaining too much about the content of safflower.

Seeing this, Chu covered her chest and shook her head hurriedly.

"No, no, it wasn't me who did it, Master, you have to believe me."

Bai Zhanxiong took a deep breath, glanced at Meng Jiao and the other person who were watching the show in the room, and pointed at Chu with a gloomy tone.

"If you drag it on, Chu is cruel and ruthless, and it is hard for the mistress of the Bai Mansion to bear the responsibility, so I will let him stay at home and wake up temporarily..."

Meng Jiao saw that Father Bai was trying to smooth things over again, so she interrupted him.

"Wait! The matter of Lord Bai's beloved son has been resolved, but the death of my mother Yun and Chu should also be settled today!"

Bai Zhanxiong looked at Meng Jiao, who suddenly became serious and stern, in surprise, and his Adam's apple rolled.

Is this really his dull daughter? In just three months, why did he feel as if he had never known her?
