Yu Wenhao told Yuan Qingling about this matter when he returned.
After Yuan Qingling heard this, she sighed and said: "I have never seen Concubine Liu, so I don't know what kind of woman she is, but a woman who desperately threw herself into a lake when she was pregnant with a child, it is conceivable that she was in the presence of Princess Ji."
Life is worse than death."
"I didn't go into details when I was at the Yamen. In fact, it was Princess Ji who threatened her with the lives of her father and family," Yu Wenhao said.
Yuan Qingling looked at him, "Is that what this case is like?"
Yu Wenhao said helplessly: "What else can be done? The murder that happened in the mansion was committed by herself, and she committed suicide by throwing herself into the lake. Princess Ji handled the matter carefully and must have the most comprehensive explanation to deal with it. Tomorrow, the Yamen will go there again. By then, she will definitely
One or two people will come out and say that they saw Concubine Liu throwing herself into the lake, but they were too late to save her. Even if this matter is dealt with, unless Prince Ji stands up for the concubine, the truth will never come to light."
Yuan Qingling thinks this will be the case.
As long as Concubine Liu really committed suicide, no one would be able to hold her accountable.
She couldn't help but feel sad for that woman.
Life is only once for everyone. Who is willing to give up life if it is not absolutely necessary?
"By the way," Yu Wenhao suddenly remembered Princess Ji's illness, "Today I saw that Princess Ji's face was very sallow, and she couldn't stop coughing. She had been sick not long ago, how could it be so serious? She didn't have it before.
She is like this."
"This is hard to say, due to resistance, individual differences, and various factors." Yuan Qing Ling said.
"Will you treat her?" Yu Wenhao asked.
Yuan Qingling smiled and shook his head, "I won't take the initiative. Now I only follow the orders of the medicine box. I will do whatever medicine is in the medicine box."
Before the city gate incident, most of the medicine boxes contained King Huai's medicines. However, when I opened the medicine box that day, most of them contained first-aid medicines and trauma medicines.
"If there is either a god or a ghost living in this medicine box of yours," Yu Wenhao said calmly.
Yuan Qingling smiled and said: "I think so."
She took out the medicine box and opened it. She had seen it yesterday and found that most of the medicines in the medicine box were from King Huai.
"Huh?" Yuan Qingling was a little surprised, "What happened today?"
They are all injections for preventing miscarriage, as well as folic acid, calcium tablets, etc.
"What's wrong?" Yu Wenhao didn't know what kind of medicine these were. Seeing her strange expression, he couldn't help but ask: "Didn't the medicine box tell you to save her?"
Yuan Qingling shook her head with a strange expression, "No, these are all medicines to protect the fetus, Concubine Liu? She is already dead."
"Is there something wrong with your medicine box? I don't need your medicine to protect the fetus. There are many experts in the palace." Yu Wenhao said.
"Maybe." Yuan Qingling couldn't figure out the temper of the medicine box now anyway, so he didn't care.
The next day, the Yamen went to Prince Ji's Mansion again.
Sure enough, as King Ji expected, two servants were cleaning the attic and saw the concubine commit suicide by throwing herself into the lake. When they ran down, the guards had already gone into the lake to save her because of the distance.
Yu Wenhao first went back to the palace and asked: "What are the circumstances that would cause a pregnant woman to throw herself into the lake without caring about it?"
Yuan Qingling was stunned for a moment, "Didn't you say that she was threatened by Princess Ji?"
"I have to think of a reason to tell my father. Otherwise, if Concubine Liu commits suicide while pregnant, her family will suffer. Let her die, and try not to involve her father, brother, and family. She is a filial person.
.”
Yuan Qingling thought for a while and made up an explanation for him.
Yu Wenhao went to the palace to report the situation. After hearing this, Emperor Ming Yuan said nothing and asked Yu Wenhao to explain the situation to the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother was very sad. The royal family had always been looking forward to the birth of a baby, but in recent years, there was not even any news about the princesses. At best, King Sun and King Ji gave birth to a daughter, but there has been no news in recent years.
Furthermore, Cui Shi, the third wife of Wei Wang Yuwenwei, was pregnant last year. For some reason, her fetus was stillborn when she was six months old, and she almost died. Now she is still pregnant.
While recuperating, you can only get out of bed and walk after listening.
Concubine Liu finally got pregnant, but she couldn't think of throwing herself into a lake and committing suicide. The Queen Mother was so angry that she couldn't sleep last night and couldn't eat today.
When Yu Wenhao arrived, the Queen Mother was still angry, smashed the bowl, and kicked everyone out.
The nun who was waiting in the hall breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Yu Wenhao coming, "My lord, please hurry in and persuade me. I haven't eaten these two meals. I didn't sleep all night last night. I'm angry and sad."
Yu Wenhao said: "Okay, mama, go and order some porridge or soup. I will serve you."
"Yes!" Nanny quickly sent someone away.
When the Queen Mother saw her beloved grandson coming, and then remembered that her hopes of having a grandson had failed, she couldn't help but feel sad. She quickly asked: "Have you investigated everything about Concubine Liu? Who harmed her?
Got her?"
Yu Wenhao looked at the mess on the ground, and the old lady was quite angry.
"Mommy said you haven't eaten for two meals. Eat your food first and then tell you about the situation." Yu Wenhao sat next to her and coaxed softly.
"If you can't eat it, you have to tell me quickly and don't rush me to death." When the Queen Mother saw him, her anger subsided and she was left feeling sad.
Grandma brought the soup, and Yu Wenhao brought it over and fed her spoonful by spoonful, forcing her to finish a mouthful of soup before sending her out and saying, "It's clear that the person committed suicide."
When the Queen Mother heard this, she was furious and said, "Suicide? How dare she die with the royal descendants in her arms? How brave, isn't she afraid of killing the nine tribes?"
Yu Wenhao held her angry and trembling hand and said, "Please be patient and listen to your grandson."
"Do you still want to plead for her family? I have been looking forward to my great-grandson until my neck has grown long. There has been no good news from the royal family in these years. This time, it is a blessing from God. I asked her to give it in vain.
What a waste." The Queen Mother was so angry that her face turned blue.
Yu Wenhao lowered his voice and said: "I ask you to calm down, why are you so angry? Who is the happiest when Concubine Liu is pregnant? It must be her. If she had a way to survive, would she throw herself into a lake and commit suicide?"
The Queen Mother was startled. It was true that the royal family was looking forward to having a child. This was known to the world, and Concubine Liu should be the happiest person.
"What on earth is going on? Tell me quickly, this is really going to scare me to death." said the Queen Mother.
Yu Wenhao explained: "You know about Princess Ji's illness. The concubine has always been close to my sister-in-law. When my sister-in-law was sick, the concubine always stayed at the bedside. Why did she suddenly call a doctor that day? It was because she found that she had a cough and fever.
, Little did he know, she was found to be pregnant. Imperial Grandma, this disease is very serious. You know, even the sixth child has been tortured by this disease for several years and almost died. If the concubine gets sick, the child will definitely not be saved.
Even if she barely managed to hold on until birth, the disease brought by her mother in the womb would definitely lead to an early death. The death of the heir apparent was very unlucky. The concubine threw herself into the lake for the sake of the royal reputation. The imperial grandmother, she was
We are desperate, otherwise, who wouldn’t care about their own life?”
After hearing the explanation, the Queen Mother was stunned for a long time. She was full of anger and could not find a way out.
