Chapter 255: She Wouldn’t Think To Extort You, Would She?
reminded her, “Wan Zhaoxun, you need to rest well now, otherwise, your child might not be destined for you.”
This blatant threat, if it were in the past, Wan Qing would not have taken it to heart at all, but now Wan Qing did not dare to act rashly.
The hand that was lifting the quilt stopped.
Jiang Ruanxi’s mouth revealed sarcasm.
She walked out.
Watching her leave, Wan Qing angrily swept all the things in front of her to the ground, but it still did not relieve her anger, and she wailed loudly.
“Wan Zhaoxun, what happened to you?”
Suddenly, Sun Tina walked in and saw the mess all over the ground, so she curiously asked.
Seeing her, Wan Qing shut her mouth, her face full of haze, and said nothing.
Sun Tina did not mind, came to her front, and asked with a caring look, “Is the child alright?”
Hearing Sun Tina mention the child, and recalling Jiang Ruanxi’s words just now, she did not know if her child was really alright.
Jiang Ruanxi said she could preserve her child, which meant she and the imperial physician had lied to her that the child was in trouble.
But she did not say these words to Sun Tina.
Wan Qing did not want others to see her disheveled appearance, and said ungraciously, “What are you here for?”
Sun Tina was not angry either, still with a gentle look, “I came to see you.”
Wan Qing had always thought Sun Tina was a bit stupid and did not take her seriously, and regarded her care as a bit of hypocrisy.
“I’m tired and need to rest.”
Faced with Wan Qing chasing her out so disrespectfully, the smile at the corner of Sun Tina’s mouth stiffened, but it quickly disappeared.
“Alright, then rest well.”
Wan Qing did not reply to her and directly lay down.
Sun Tina did not stick a hot face to a cold butt either, and directly turned around and went out.
But when she went out, the face that had been smiling just now immediately fell, becoming full of haze.
After walking far away, she said to the maidservant beside her, “Go inquire about her child, it does not look like a miscarriage.”
“Yes.”
After the maidservant left, haze unconsciously appeared in Sun Tina’s eyes.
She had not expected that she originally planned to make Jiang Ruanxi miscarry, but unexpectedly hit the mark by mistake and affected Wan Qing.
But there was no loss anyway, neither of their children between them should be born.

After Jiang Ruanxi returned to the courtyard, Yushui had already come back early.
“Crown Princess, your body is not fully recovered yet, where did you go?”
Seeing her, Yushui went forward to support her hand.
Seeing her so cautious, as if she were some fragile item, Jiang Ruanxi could not help but find it a bit amusing, but her heart also felt warm.
“I’m fine. It was just that after Wan Qing left our place earlier, she seemed to show signs of miscarriage, so I went to check.”
Yushui was stunned, not expecting that she had only been out for a short while and discovered such a thing, her face also becoming serious.
“She won’t try to frame you, right?”
Jiang Ruanxi nodded.
Yushui immediately became anxious, “This woman, has she gone mad? Her own child has issues, what does it have to do with us?”
Jiang Ruanxi sat down and comforted, “Don’t be angry, she cannot harm me yet. I had the imperial physician tell her that her child showed signs of miscarriage. You go check what kind of fragrance was on Sun Tina when she came in that day.”
Yushui said in surprise, “Crown Princess, do you mean Sun Tina was trying to harm Wan Zhaoxun’s child?”
“No, she was trying to harm my child.”
As she spoke, Jiang Ruanxi unconsciously touched her belly, feeling a belated fear in her heart.
If it were not because she smelled something off and had Yushui open the window and keep them away from her, the one who would have miscarried now would not be Wan Qing’s child, but hers.
Thinking of when Wan Qing and Sun Tina came in not long ago, and everything Jiang Ruanxi had her do, Yushui felt very angry, “This Sun Tina is really a poisonous woman, actually poisoning an unborn child.”
Jiang Ruanxi smiled without saying anything.
Yushui might have been in a relatively simple environment and did not know the twists and turns in the inner residence.
“You go check first, be quick.”
“Alright.”
Yushui turned around, but as she took a step, Jiang Ruanxi thought of something and said to her, “Go see if there is any letter from Lingnan.”
Yushui was stunned, knowing Jiang Ruanxi missed Wei Chang, and smiled, “Yes.”
She turned a corner to the platform where pigeons were raised, saw a pigeon with a white note tied to its foot, and Yushui took it out.
Jiang Ruanxi had just taken a sip of tea when Yushui returned.
Yushui handed the note to Jiang Ruanxi, and Jiang Ruanxi took it with some excitement.
Because these pigeons were given to her by Wei Chang after she married as the Crown Princess.
She used these carrier pigeons to contact her adoptive parents, and as the way to contact Wei Chang after he went to Lingnan.
Now that a letter had come, no matter who it was from, her heart was surging.
After unfolding the note, Jiang Ruanxi saw the content on it, and the smile at the corner of her mouth immediately stiffened.
“Crown Princess, what happened?” Yushui asked worriedly.
“The Empress killed all the Yu Family members.” Jiang Ruanxi said.
“What?” Yushui was shocked and took the note, on which it was written.
Yu Family exterminated, Master Wuming also died. Be careful of the Empress, I am all well.
“The Empress again.” Jiang Ruanxi’s face was full of haze.
Ling Lin was also harmed by her.
Now she had killed the entire Yu Family.
It seemed she could not boil the frog in warm water anymore and needed to give her another lesson.
Thinking of that mother-in-law like a celestial fairy who had just died like that, Wei Chang must be so grief-stricken now.
Her heart felt as uncomfortable as if it were being tugged by someone.
“Go get me brush and ink, paper, and inkstone.” Jiang Ruanxi’s voice was a bit hoarse.
“Alright.”
Yushui knew she wanted to write to Wei Chang, so she turned and went to the study room to fetch them.
Soon Yushui brought them, Jiang Ruanxi did not know what she wrote, filling a full large note, folded it up, and handed it to Yushui.
“Have the carrier pigeon take this back to Lingnan.”
“This servant knows.”
Yushui took it without asking anything and directly turned to leave.
Jiang Ruanxi sat alone in the chair, her heart full of mixed feelings, also knowing that some matters needed her to speed up.
After Yushui returned, she instructed her, “Go to the Grand Tutor’s Manor and have my father come to the Crown Prince’s Manor.”
“Yes.”

Palace of Compassion and Tranquility.
The Empress looked at the letter in her hand and immediately laughed loudly with joy.
“That bitch is finally dead, and the one who sheltered her is also dead.”
Liu Ye was also happy and flattered by her side, “Congratulations to the Empress, felicitations to the Empress, you have finally removed the thorn in your eye.”
The Empress’s mouth curved into a big smile, “Yes, as long as she is dead, this palace can rest easy.”
For so many years, she thought that bitch had died in that big fire back then, but unexpectedly her life was so tough.
