Chapter 557： Wei Qingwan was betrayed by Nanny Li and Cui He

Chapter 557 Wei Qingwan was betrayed by Nanny Li and Cui He

Wei Qingwan couldn't tell whether Qi Shijing's words were true or false.

“I would like to follow the teachings of the princess.” Wei Qingwan lowered her head and cautiously agreed.

Qi Shijing looked at Wei Qingwan's cautious appearance and couldn't help but smile: "What's wrong with you? Why did you become more cautious after returning to your parents' home? Where did your arrogance the past few days go?"

"I'm scared. I didn't mean to make my sister angry before. I just wanted to fight for myself. I hope my sister, the princess, won't take it to heart." Wei Qingwan explained.

“Fight for it? Ha, you really got it.” Qi Shijing said with a smile.

There was a hint of sneer between her eyebrows, whether she was laughing at Wei Qingwan or herself.

Wei Qingwan quickly expressed her attitude: "Sister, you are the concubine, and my child is also your child. He will call you mother in the future."

"Who knows what will happen in the future." Qi Shijing said with a smile, "That's all, let's do this for today. You can take good care of her for now."

Qi Shijing then told the servants serving Wei Qingwan, "You must be careful. If there is something wrong with the concubine's belly, none of you will be able to escape."

 “This slave understands.”

After finishing her instructions, Qi Shijing left.

It took Wei Qingwan a while to come back to her senses.

Although she still didn't know whether Qi Shijing really wanted her to give birth to the child safely or was lying, her words gave her a wake-up call.

She may have the prince's child in her belly. If it is a boy, it will be the first grandson of the prince. She must be more careful and not be sad anymore.

“Mommy, please ask the kitchen to prepare dinner for me. I want to eat.” Wei Qingwan said.

“Miss, have you figured it out?” Grandma Li asked hurriedly.

"Well, as long as the baby in my belly is a boy, even if it cannot help His Royal Highness Prince Yu regain the favor of the Emperor, it can at least stabilize my position in Prince Yu's Palace." Wei Qingwan said.

“Miss, you are so right! That’s how you should think!” Nanny Li said with a happy face.

“Mommy, thank you and Cui He for always being by my side. You treat me really well.” Wei Qingwan said with emotion.

 The two of them were the only ones who stayed with her from beginning to end.

"Miss, what are you talking about? I have watched you grow up, so who am I to turn to if not you? My heart hurts more than yours when you are hurt!" said Granny Li.

"Yes, Miss, you have a good rest, there will be a long time ahead!" Cuihe said.

 “Yeah.” Wei Qingwan nodded.

"The old slave will go to the kitchen now." Nanny Li happily went to prepare dinner for Wei Qingwan.

"Cui He, go to the prince's place to find out what he is doing after returning home today." Wei Qingwan arranged.

 “Okay, slave, I’ll go over right now.”

Cuihe went out immediately.

Looking at the two people leaving, Wei Qingwan couldn't help but reach out and touch her flat belly, hoping that a healthy little prince would be born from it.

Wei Qingwan thought about her current situation carefully. It remains to be seen whether Qi Shijing can be trusted by the prince. The only ones she can trust and use are Grandma Li and Cui He.

 In the Wei family, only her mother still cared about her. Wei Yichen and Wei Qingruo only thought about how to harm her.

Wei Yilin no longer loves her. Ever since her father used family methods against her, he has no feelings for her anymore.

 There are very few people in the entire Wei family that she can rely on. I think after what happened today, the prince will not treat her as he did in the past.

 But it doesn't matter, even if Wei Yichen and Wei Qingruo have a cold relationship with her, she can still maintain an open relationship with the Wei family. As long as this relationship remains, the prince will still treat her with some kindness.

What's more, her position as concubine was given by the emperor, and the prince would not abandon her easily.

Thinking of this, Wei Qingwan couldn't help but feel relieved.

She has not completely lost yet. She needs to cheer up. She still has a chance to make Wei Qingruo and Wei Yichen pay for what they did today!

 It didn't take long for Grandma Li to bring a sumptuous dinner from the kitchen. People in the palace still didn't know what happened in Uncle Zhongyi's house today, and everyone's attitude towards Wei Qingwan was still as respectful as before.

But Cuihe has not returned yet.

Wei Qingwan was very confused, so she asked Grandma Li to go over and take a look at the situation.

It took a while before Grandma Li came back.

Grandma Li replied to Wei Qingwan: "Don't worry, Miss. Cui He has nothing to do. She just accidentally fell down on the way back and was sent to the room to rest by a passing servant, so she couldn't come back to report to Miss right away."

 “Is it okay if she needs it?”

“It’s not too important, I just broke my knee, but I may not be able to come over to serve you for the time being.”

"That's it." Wei Qingwan immediately felt relieved, "It doesn't matter if I can't come to serve you. Let Cui He rest well."

"Yes." Nanny Li responded, "Mother, please rest early. You are in critical condition now."

“Well, don’t worry, mama.”

 Wei Qingwan took an early rest after meeting with Grandma Li.

I don’t know how long it took, but Wei Qingwan was woken up. Some people came into Cuitingxuan, making some noise, as if they were moving things.

Wei Qingwan raised her upper body and put a soft pillow behind her.

Since Grandma Li was not around at the moment, Wei Qingwan called Hui'er, another maid assigned to her by Chu Heng, and asked, "What's going on outside?"

 “This…” Hui'er hesitated.

 “Is there anything you can’t tell me?” Wei Qingwan grimaced.

“Replying to the queen, Miss Cuihe is back.”

“She came back a long time ago, isn’t she injured in her room?” Wei Qingwan asked.

"No...no, Miss Cuihe didn't come back until now."

"What's going on? Do you mean that grandma deceived me?" Wei Qingwan was confused and then thought again and said, "It's impossible, grandma will not deceive me, and there is no need for her to lie to me. Why do you Are you going to make up lies to deceive me?"

"No, no, I forgive you. I did not deceive you. Miss Cuihe did not come back until now."

"What's going on? Why didn't she come back until now? What's going on outside?" Wei Qingwan continued to ask.

“Miss Cuihe came with Butler Wang. He said that the prince had given his aunt to Miss Cuihe and was going to live in another courtyard.”

"What did you say?" Wei Qingwan sat up suddenly, "Tell me again, what happened to Cuihe?"

"Your Majesty, please calm down. I don't dare to speak nonsense. That's what the steward Wang said just now." Hui'er knelt down quickly.

"Mammy! Where is grandma? Go and call grandma Li over to me!" Wei Qingwan said angrily.
