The mistress is reborn, no one who bullies me can escape
Chapter 207 Granddaughter-in-law dares not
Xue Jinhua frowned slightly, thinking to herself: Why would this beggar master choose to come at this time?
She carefully felt herself and did not notice any discomfort, and now was a critical period...
After considering for a moment, she said softly, "Please invite the beggar master in."
Time flies, and it has been a long time since I last saw this beggar master.
Now that we met again, he looked much calmer than before, but his face, which had originally seemed a little unruly, now looked particularly serious.
The beggar master bowed respectfully to Xue Jinhua and said, "Greetings to the Crown Princess."
Xue Jinhua smiled slightly and responded, "Master Beggar, there is no need to be so polite."
However, facing the still polite Xue Jinhua, the beggar master did not say a word, but stood still, looking her up and down carefully with a sharp gaze.
Seeing this, Qingyi on the side couldn't help but frown, feeling secretly dissatisfied.
Why does the way this beggar stares at his master make him look like a lecher trying to flirt with a decent girl?
Just as he was about to scold her, Xue Jinhua had already asked, "Young Master, why are you looking at me like that?"
Upon hearing this, the beggar master asked solemnly, "Crown Princess, have you felt any discomfort in your body recently?"
Xue Jinhua was a little surprised, but still answered honestly: "I don't have such a feeling."
Upon hearing this, the beggar master frowned even more and muttered to himself, "This shouldn't be the case... Have you experienced any other abnormalities recently?"
Hearing the word "abnormal", Xue Jinhua was startled and quickly recalled her recent situations in her mind.
When Xue Jinhua heard what the beggar master said, she was shocked and quickly reached out to touch her neck.
When her fingertips touched that strange place, her face instantly turned as pale as paper, and her lips trembled slightly: "Young Master, is this what you are talking about?"
At this moment, Lu Wan no longer cared about the so-called differences between men and women and etiquette. She reached out her hand without hesitation and pulled down her collar a little, revealing the secret hidden under her clothes - a black line was clearly visible, like a winding poisonous snake entwined on her fair skin.
The beggar master at the side only took a quick glance, and a look of astonishment appeared on his face. He widened his eyes, and his voice trembled with fear: "Princess...Princess, when did you find out?"
Facing the beggar master's gaze full of worry and concern, Xue Jinhua took a deep breath and tried to keep herself calm, but her heart was already in turmoil.
However, she knew that she must not panic at this moment, so she pretended to be calm and replied: "Little Master, I just noticed it."
Upon hearing this, the beggar master could not help but sigh, his expression distraught: "Master once told me to hurry over here as soon as possible. I rode non-stop all the way without stopping for a moment, but I didn't expect that I would still be a step late!"
The more Xue Jinhua listened, the more confusing things seemed to her. Her heart seemed to be shrouded in a fog, leaving her at a loss.
She frowned and asked, "Master, what is going on? Please tell me!"
The beggar master sighed deeply and said slowly: "Crown Princess, you don't know that your fate has undergone a huge change."
"However, since you and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince both have special destinies, the two children who are about to be born...will definitely be people with extraordinary destinies."
"Wha...what?"
When Xue Jinhua heard this, her heart sank suddenly, and she was so shocked that she couldn't speak for a long time.
Her eyes widened, her face full of disbelief.
A person with an extraordinary fate? What does this mean? Is it a person with an unfortunate fate like himself, or a person with a lonely fate like Ling Yan?
For a moment, countless thoughts flashed through her mind, making her feel confused.
After a long while, Xue Jinhua came back to her senses and asked calmly, "Young Master, even if it is true as you said, why are you so anxious and worried?"
The beggar master sighed again and explained in a serious tone: "I have been observing the celestial phenomena recently and found that there are some unusual signs."
"After careful calculation, I just found out that someone has been eyeing the fate of your unborn baby and is trying to harm them secretly."
When Xue Jinhua heard this, she felt a buzzing sound in her head, and the teacup in her hand fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.
She was trembling all over, her face was as pale as paper, and her lips were trembling as she murmured to herself: "Someone actually wants to harm my child? How is this possible... No, it won't happen..."
She raised her head, stared straight at the beggar master, and asked with a trembling voice: "Who is it? Could it be my eldest brother?"
Xue Jinhua frowned and murmured to herself, "Could it really be him?"
After a while, she seemed to have suddenly figured it out, and said with great certainty: "It must be him! That guy must be planning to use some shameful and despicable means to suck the life of me and the child in my belly!"
The beggar master nodded slightly, indicating his agreement with Xue Jinhua's guess, and consoled her: "Don't worry too much, Crown Princess. My master once said that this child has not yet been born, and his fate cannot be completely determined."
"Therefore, as long as the child is still safely in your belly, Madam, it will be safe for the time being."
"As for that strange black thread, it indicates that someone with ulterior motives has attempted to connect to your fate and then devour the fate of the child in your belly."
After hearing this, although Xue Jinhua believed what the beggar master said without a doubt, for some reason, a deep worry still surged into her heart like a tide and could not be shaken off.
At this moment, the mysterious paper suddenly flashed through her mind. She quickly reached out and took it out from her bosom, and eagerly handed it to the beggar master, saying, "Little master, please help me see what is written on this paper."
Qingyi walked up quickly, took a cup without saying a word, filled it with vinegar and handed it to Lu Wan.
Xue Jinhua took the cup and carefully sprinkled the vinegar in the cup evenly on the paper.
After a while, a magical thing happened - the originally blank paper gradually revealed some strange characters.
However, these characters were completely different from the common words in daily life. Even though Xue Jinhua stared at them for a long time, he could not recognize any of them.
The beggar master opened his eyes wide with a look of astonishment on his face, as if he had seen something extremely rare. He muttered to himself, "Princess, this... this seems to be the last page of the legendary wordless book." His voice trembled slightly with excessive surprise.
Xue Jinhua was also shocked when she heard this. Her beautiful eyes opened wide and she looked at the page in front of her in disbelief.
However, unlike the beggar master, the latter was ecstatic at this moment as if he had obtained a rare treasure. He held it tightly in his palm and was so excited that he was almost incoherent: "Crown Princess, the mysteries contained in this book are so mysterious that even an ordinary person like me, even if you were here, I would probably find it difficult to comprehend even a fraction of it! I dare to ask you to keep this book for the time being and study it carefully. If I really understand something, I will let you know as soon as possible."
After thinking for a moment, Xue Jinhua nodded slightly to show his agreement.
She still had great trust in the beggar master and believed that he would not do anything treacherous.
So she ordered Qingyi to arrange a proper residence for the beggar master.
When the beggar master was about to leave, he took out a small and exquisite black porcelain bottle from his arms, handed it to Xue Jinhua carefully, and said, "Crown Princess, these pills are specially prepared for you."
"Although they cannot completely stop the continued spread of the black thread, they can at least provide some relief. Madam, please take them on time and take care of yourself."
Xue Jinhua silently took the black porcelain bottle, stared at it for a moment, and then put it in her arms without hesitation.
At this moment, no matter how difficult and dangerous the road ahead is, she must live on with strength, not for anything else, but only for the unborn child in her belly.
As long as there is a glimmer of hope, she will never give up easily.
At this moment, the beggar master seemed to suddenly remember something important. He slapped his forehead and quickly took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Xue Jinhua, saying, "Oh, I almost forgot to mention this to the Crown Princess. I happened to meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince on the way here. This letter is what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked me to pass on to you, Madam."
This was probably the most exciting news Xue Jinhua had heard since the prince left the capital! She was so overjoyed that she could hardly contain herself, and her voice trembled with excitement, "Thank you, little master..."
Xue Jinhua couldn't wait to grab the letter and quickly opened it.
There were only a few words on the letter paper, but each word seemed to carry a heavy weight, making people feel nervous.
It turned out that the reason why Ling Yan's letters had not been delivered during this period of time was not because he had not started writing, but because those who were responsible for delivering the letters had lost their lives inexplicably.
Thinking of this, Xue Jinhua couldn't help but take a breath, secretly thankful that she had finally received this extremely precious letter.
"Don't worry, Princess Consort. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is safe and sound now. You just need to take good care of yourself." The beggar master comforted her earnestly.
Xue Jinhua nodded slightly to show that she understood, then turned to Qingyi beside her and said, "Qingyi, quickly find a comfortable place for the young master to rest."
"Yes, Princess." Qingyi received the order and left in a hurry.
After the beggar master left, Xue Jinhua held the letter tightly in both hands and read it over and over again.
However, as she read more and more times, the sense of relief she had originally felt at knowing that the prince was safe not only did not increase, but was gradually replaced by a heavy emotion.
Her brows were furrowed and her expression became increasingly serious.
.........
At this time, another piece of news came - the Queen Mother fell ill! According to common sense, the Queen should have gone to serve and take care of her, but the Queen was under house arrest for some reason and could not get away.
Therefore, the emperor ordered Xue Jinhua to take on this important task.
Ever since the fire broke out in the palace that day, the Empress Dowager has been in a depressed and unhappy mood.
Even though Xue Jinhua came to counsel the Empress Dowager every day, the worry in her heart was still as heavy as a haze.
Originally, Xue Jinhua had planned to take advantage of this opportunity to take care of the Empress Dowager to persuade her to give up the idea of going to Huangshan Temple.
However, at the moment, it seems that this is hopeless.
The Empress Dowager sighed: "Alas! I have experienced many ups and downs in my life, but I have never encountered such a ridiculous thing!"
His words were full of helplessness and disappointment.
Then he sighed and said, "It's all because of my weak body that I can't leave immediately to go to Huangshan Temple to pray devoutly."
At this time, Xue Jinhua hurriedly comforted her: "Empress Dowager, you are not feeling well... You may want to delay your trip for a while, or even give up if it is really inconvenient to travel."
"After all, all of us in the royal family have gone there this time, and I think the heavens will be able to understand our sincerity."
Unexpectedly, the Queen Mother responded with a firm voice: "Absolutely not!"
Xue Jinhua said in a cautious and tentative tone: "Empress Dowager, are you really determined to go? After all, the journey is long, and the conditions at the temple may be difficult..."
However, the Queen Mother was very determined. She responded solemnly: "I have been eating vegetarian food and chanting Buddhist scriptures in this deep palace for many years, but it is not a real temple after all."
"I think maybe the old master noticed that my sincerity was lacking, so he specially punished me. No matter what, I must go this time to show my piety!"
Xue Jinhua understood that the empress dowager was in high spirits at the moment. If she continued to dissuade her, it would probably only cause the empress dowager's disgust and displeasure.
Thinking of this, she quickly put on a flattering smile and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Grandmother is right. We should definitely go there."
Since there is no way to change the Queen Mother's mind, the only choice is to join them.
Seeing that Xue Jinhua no longer objected, the Empress Dowager showed her joy.
But after a little thought, the Queen Mother smiled again and continued, "The Imperial Master has said before that all members of the royal family must be dispatched this time."
"Then the queen has been under house arrest for some time. She should come with us this time."
"But you see, my body is getting weaker day by day, and it is really difficult for me to support myself! So, I still have to trouble you to go and tell the emperor about this matter."
The person who spoke was the empress dowager, who looked sick. She sat leaning on the couch, breathing slightly.
Xue Jinhua heard this, and a light flashed in her beautiful eyes. She said hesitantly, "Grandmother, you also know what happened last time. Father was furious about it, and he is still angry. If my granddaughter-in-law goes this time...what if Father refuses to agree, then what should I do?"
When the Queen Mother heard this, her face suddenly became gloomy, and she said coldly: "In the current situation, even if the Queen made mistakes before, our royal family is facing difficulties now. How can she stay out of it and watch coldly?"
After saying this, the empress dowager stared at Xue Jinhua with a sharp gaze, as if she wanted to see through his heart.
"I know what your mother did to you. You still hold a grudge against her and don't want her to come out, right?"
Xue Jinhua's heart tightened when the empress dowager stared at her like this. She lowered her head and replied softly, "My grandson dares not."
"It's just... After all, the previous incident caused a lot of harm to my granddaughter-in-law. My mother..."
Speaking of this, Xue Jinhua's voice was slightly choked up, and it was obvious that the past still made her feel heartbroken.
However, despite her resentment and resentment, facing the grim situation and the majesty of the Queen Mother, she finally raised her head slowly, took a deep breath and said firmly: "Don't worry, Grandmother, I will go to meet my father and do my best to persuade him."
