Chapter 479 Xiao Chenyan wants to clean up the family
As soon as Xiao Chenyan arrived at the Yamen in Kyoto, Mu Wanrong greeted him with an aggrieved look on his face, and he burst into tears.
"Your Highness, Shen Ruzhou wants to harm our child, you have to make the decision for Wanrong."
Xiao Chenyan couldn't help but frown slightly after hearing this, glanced at Mu Wanrong's belly, and finally looked steadily at Shen Ruzhou.
"I know you don't like Wanrong, but she is pregnant with a child after all. You shouldn't be so ignorant!"
"I don't know the importance?!" Shen Ruzhou laughed angrily, not bothering to watch Mu Wanrong act here.
"Your Highness, it was your concubine who wanted to poison me. If I hadn't been proficient in pharmacology, I would have fallen into her trap today."
At this time, the doctor finished testing the decoction and came over to report, "Replying to His Majesty the Crown Prince, in addition to the abortifacient, this soup indeed contains poison."
Mu Wanrong's expression suddenly changed.
How could there be poison? He obviously only put in the abortion pill, Shen Ruzhou must have done something!
right! That must be it!
Mu Wanrong calmed down, thinking that a bad person would complain first.
"Shen Ruzhou, do you really want to kill me? It's not enough to kill my child, but you also want to kill me too?!"
Xiao Chenyan's eyes darkened and he said in a cold voice: "Shen Ruzhou, do you have anything else to say?"
"Your Highness, I thought you were thoughtful and insightful, but I didn't expect that a few words from the concubine would make you lose the ability to distinguish between wrong and wrong." Shen Ruzhou smiled sarcastically at Xiao Chenyan and continued.
"This matter is so full of loopholes, I don't believe His Highness the Crown Prince can't see it. Your concubine also said that we met by chance in a restaurant, so I had no way of knowing in advance that I would meet her, so how could I carry poison with me to harm her. "
I thought Shen Ruzhou would unleash some clever tricks, but it turned out to be nothing more than that.
Mu Wanrong breathed a sigh of relief and argued: "Other people would not do it, but you are a doctor and have the habit of carrying medicine with you. In the past, when you saw someone you didn't like, you would prick them with the poisonous needle. This is not the case. Is it fake?!”
After being reminded by Mu Wanrong, Xiao Chenyan thought of the scene in the imperial concubine's palace today and said with a cold face.
"What Wanrong said is not unreasonable. Didn't Miss Shen personally say in the palace this morning that there was poison on her body that could seal the throat after seeing blood?"
Hearing this, Shen Ruzhou retorted: "It's true that I carry medicine on me, but it's for self-defense. I shouldn't carry abortion pills." After saying that, she raised her eyebrows and said to Mu Wanrong: "Is it the concubine? Do you have a habit of carrying abortion pills with you?"
Being asked a question suddenly, Mu Wanrong replied without thinking: "Who has nothing to do with that thing on their body?"
"That's right. It's impossible for both of you to carry abortion pills with you, so this pill must have been bought nearby on a temporary basis."
Shen Ruzhou looked at Mu Wanrong coldly, and when he saw her eyes dodge, he felt more confident and continued.
"On my way to the Yamen just now, I noticed that there is a medical shop next to the restaurant. I must have bought the medicine there."
After hearing this, Mu Wanrong broke into a cold sweat. Seeing that Shen Ruzhou was looking at her, she hurriedly hid her expression.
Shen Ruzhou glanced at Mu Wanrong meaningfully, and finally turned to look at Xiao Chenyan and said, "Your Highness, why don't you call the guy from the medical clinic here now and identify him face to face, and the truth will naturally come out."
Xiao Chenyan nodded and gave Jun Wu a wink.
Jun Wu immediately understood and took the order to lead the people.
About a quarter of an hour later, the boy from the medical clinic was taken to the Yamen.
Shen Ruzhou clearly saw that the moment the young man entered the door, Mu Wanrong's maid Ling'er's expression suddenly changed and she shrank behind the yamen servant.
Shen Ruzhou strode forward and pulled Ling'er out from behind.
When the boy saw her, he pointed and said, "This is the girl who just bought abortion pills at the hospital."
Ling'er shuddered and looked at Mu Wanrong with twinkling eyes.
Mu Wanrong immediately said: "Didn't I ask you to buy anti-fetal pills? Why did it become an abortion pill?"
When Ling'er was reminded by her, she immediately found an excuse. She held her neck and shouted at the young guy: "Don't talk nonsense! I obviously bought anti-fetal medicine to help our concubine protect her pregnancy. You must have heard wrong. Yes, I got it as an abortion pill."
The young man was wronged for no reason and was a little angry. His voice rose a few degrees and he said, "I can't hear you wrong. What you want is abortion pills."
"You just heard wrong. What I bought was anti-fetal medicine." Ling'er and the boy had different opinions and started arguing.
"boom!"
Xiao Chenyan slammed the table impatiently. Although Ling'er denied it, the fact was already clear.
He gave Mu Wanrong a hard look and said coldly: "Master Fang, it seems that the clerk must have heard wrong. It was a misunderstanding. Now that the king's concubine and Miss Shen are both safe and sound, let's end this matter." .”
Family scandals should not be made public. Xiao Chenyan has always been concerned about face, so even if he wanted to deal with Mu Wanrong, he couldn't do it here.
So Shen Ruzhou was not surprised at all when he heard Xiao Chenyan made such a decision.
Master Fang naturally understood what Xiao Chenyan meant, and he didn't want to meddle in other people's business, so he hurriedly and respectfully replied: "Everything is at your Highness's disposal."
"Go back home!" Xiao Chenyan dropped these two words, stood up and strode out of the Yamen.
At the door, Junwu had already prepared a carriage.
Mu Wanrong looked at Xiao Chenyan's gloomy face and was so frightened that she didn't dare to say anything anymore.
At this time, she was only thinking about how to cover up the matter. When she got on the carriage, she accidentally slipped and nearly slipped. Fortunately, Xiao Chenyan stretched out his arm in time to catch her.
Mu Wanrong took the opportunity to snuggle into Xiao Chenyan's arms and sobbed: "Your Highness, it's Wanrong's fault. Ling'er didn't explain clearly and bought the wrong medicine. I almost..."
Xiao Chenyan interrupted impatiently, "We'll talk about it when we get back home."
He was angry, but he didn't really care. He wished Shen Ruzhou could drink the bowl of abortion pills.
Mu Wanrong got on the carriage, and Xiao Chenyan was about to follow when Shen Ruzhou ran out and said, "Your Highness, can you take a moment to speak."
Hearing this, Xiao Chenyan was slightly stunned. He couldn't remember how long it had been since Shen Ruzhou took the initiative to talk to him. Even though he had just made such a fuss and knew that Shen Ruzhou had nothing nice to say, he still nodded in agreement.
The two came to a secluded corner, and Shen Ruzhou spoke first.
"Your Highness, where did you get the news that I am pregnant?"
Xiao Chenyan did not answer this question directly, but instead asked Shen Ruzhou, "Don't worry about this. I only want to ask you, whose child is it in your belly?"
"Even your Highness, the Crown Prince, should not throw dirty water on me so casually." Anger rose in Shen Ruzhou's eyes, and Xiao Chenyan, who was opposite him, was full of suspicion and stared at her with bottomless eyes, as if he wanted to See her through.
Shen Ruzhou folded his arms helplessly and looked at him with a frank look.
"Your Highness, no matter how you got the news, I guess you never told Mu Wanrong, but she must know it now, otherwise she wouldn't have given me abortion pills."
Shen Ruzhou said halfway, and Xiao Chenyan naturally understood the meaning of her words.
Xiao Chenyan looked at Shen Ruzhou with a gloomy look, and his tone became cold: "Shen Ruzhou, you don't need to blindly slander Wanrou in front of me, I will make my own decision."
After saying that, Xiao Chenyan walked away with a cold face.
Seeing Xiao Chen coming out, Jun Wu hurriedly greeted him. Seeing that his master's expression was wrong, he asked carefully: "Your Highness, what's wrong with you?"
"Go back to the palace, I want to clean up the house!" After Xiao Chenyan gritted his teeth and spit out these words, he got on his horse and the group walked towards Prince Wucheng's palace.
