Shen Yao had never expected this situation to occur, the hand she was about to retract was still frozen in midair, as she stared stupidly at Chen Ruoran falling to the ground in front of her.

Kong Linyuan brought along the pastries and walked into the courtyard. The moment he entered, he saw Shen Yao with her back facing him, and Chen Ruoran's figure that was slowly collapsing. From his perspective, Shen Yao had intentionally pushed her down.

"Ruo'er."

Kong Linyuan's expression changed, he immediately pushed Shen Yao away and rushed forward, carefully helping Chen Ruoran who had fallen on the ground to stand up.

When the two maidservants who were fighting in the courtyard heard the commotion, they quickly separated. When they saw this scene, they were stunned and immediately knelt down to beg for mercy.

"Ruo'er, are you alright?"

Kong Linyuan asked worriedly.

"Husband, I …" Chen Ruoran's face was pale, as if she was in extreme pain, "My stomach hurts."

Just as she shook her head, the maidservant kneeling at the side cried out in alarm, "Blood, Master, Aunt is bleeding."

Kong Linyuan looked down and saw that the ground was already drenched in blood. He did not care about anything anymore and immediately carried Chen Ruoran into the house, while instructing the servant girl that was serving Chen Ruoran, "Quick, go and get a doctor."

"Yes, master." The maidservant responded and ran out of the yard.

Not long after, the maidservant returned with the doctor.

"Milord, don't worry. The baby has already been saved. It's just that this aunt's fetus is a bit unstable. We'll have to take good care of it in the next few days. Do not use any fetal energy."

The doctor explained after examining him for a long time.

"This old man will prescribe a few pills to calm the fetus and help the aunt take it. Then, the baby will be safe and sound."

The doctor quickly wrote down the prescription on the paper and passed it to Kong Linyuan.

Kong Linyuan looked at it for a bit, then gave the prescription to the servant by his side, telling him to follow the doctor to the pharmacy to get the medicine.

"Ruo'er, rest well. I'll come see you in a while."

Kong Linyuan looked at Chen Ruoran who was lying on the bed, and instructed him softly.

"Yes." Chen Ruoran replied obediently.

Kong Linyuan left two servant girls to wait on him in the room and then went to the main hall.

Shen Yao and the two servant girls were anxiously waiting for Kong Linyuan's response.

"What happened today?"

Kong Linyuan sat at the head of the group, his face frighteningly dark.

"Reporting to the old master, the First Madam made the first move. This servant has seen it with my own eyes."

She pointed at Shen Yao with a wronged expression, "Master, please be the judge for my Aunt."

Little Chu was Chen Ruoran's concubine, and grew up with her since young, so she was especially loyal to her.

"You damned girl, don't slander me!"

Shen Yao panicked, and immediately scolded Xiao Chu.

"Shut up."

Seeing that, Kong Linyuan's face became even gloomier.

"Little Chu, if you have anything to say, say it boldly. With me here, no one will dare to do anything to you."

Kong Linyuan swept a cold glance at Shen Yao and he could only shut his mouth hatefully.

"Master, today, the concubine was sunning herself in the courtyard, but unexpectedly, the Madam barged in and made a ruckus, insisting on finding Miss." Master, today, the concubine was sunbathing in the courtyard, but unexpectedly, the Madam barged in, making a ruckus, insisting on finding Miss.

Little Chu narrated the matter in an extremely smooth manner, adding fuel to the fire.

"I, master, I just wanted to see Yun'er. I had no other intentions."

Shen Yao somewhat frantically tried to defend herself, "Furthermore, I didn't push Chen Ruoran either, I don't know how she fell down …"

"Are you trying to say that you didn't push Ruo'er down? Did she deliberately fall to the ground to frame you? "

Kong Linyuan said coldly.

"Master, Chen Ruoran fell down on her own, I didn't even touch her with my hand!" Shen Yao refuted.

"Nonsense!" Ruo'er is still carrying her body, how could she intentionally fall to the ground?! " Kong Linyuan slapped the table heavily, and said coldly: "I saw it with my own eyes, yet you still want to deny it!"

Although Kong Linyuan did not personally witness Shen Yao pushing Chen Ruoran down, when Chen Ruoran fell, only Shen Yao was by her side and her hand was so close to her.

Adding on the few words he heard from the door, it confirmed the suspicion in his heart — — Shen Yao had purposely pushed Chen Ruoran down because of jealousy, wanting her to miscarry.

"Husband, I didn't …" Shen Yao panicked, and started speaking incoherently to defend himself, but Kong Linyuan did not have any intentions of listening to her explanation.

"Fortunately, nothing happened to Ruo'er this time, so I will not bother about this matter. Today's matter will punish you with a month's imprisonment." After giving Qingqing her orders, Kong Linyuan glanced at her and said coldly, "Qingqing, bring your wife back. During the period of confinement, without my order, she is not allowed to take even half a step out of the Qing Shuang Courtyard."

"Yes, master." Qingqing brought the crying Shen Yao out of the hall in fear and trepidation.

"Alright, you should get up as well." Kong Linyuan then looked at Little Chu, his expression slightly relaxed. After teaching her a few words, she went back to serve Chen Ruoran.

When Shen Yao saw Xiao Chu exiting the hall, she immediately ran back into the hall with red eyes. She did not push Chen Ruoran, but the words she said just now were obviously from the servant girl slandering her!

"Didn't I tell you to go back to the courtyard and reflect on the matter? What are you doing back here? " Seeing that Shen Yao had returned, Kong Linyuan immediately said with a cold face.

Shen Yao said in an aggrieved tone, "Hubby, those words just now were clearly spoken by that maid intentionally slandering me. When Aunt Chen fell, she and Qing Qing were fighting each other.

"This matter is decided. You don't need to say anything more."

After Kong Linyuan finished speaking with a cold face, he turned around and prepared to leave. He had no intention of listening to Shen Yao's explanation.

"Husband, listen to my explanation." Shen Yao was so anxious that he immediately reached out and grabbed Kong Linyuan's sleeve.

"Now that the truth is right in front of your eyes, no matter how much you say it, it's useless!" Kong Linyuan ruthlessly threw off Shen Yao's hand, and with an indifferent expression, walked out.

"Kong Linyuan, you stop right there!" Shen Yao saw that it was useless to speak so many good words, and immediately became angry.

"What else do you want?" Kong Linyuan's footsteps slightly paused, and his words carried some displeasure.

"Today's matter is my fault. You must listen to my explanation."

"I think you're sick and confused, but you're not awake yet."

Kong Linyuan's face turned cold, and said indifferently: "I think it's not suitable for you to work so hard now, why don't you just take a good care of your illness at Qing Shuang Courtyard, hand over the butler key, and leave the housekeeper matters to Ruo'er."

"You, what did you say?" Shen Yao's expression changed slightly, "Kong Linyuan, look carefully, I am your legal wife, the real mother of Kong Family! But today, you are wholeheartedly protecting that fox spirit of Liu Zedong. Not only are you not willing to listen to my explanation, you even want to take away my clan's power!? Kong Linyuan, you do not understand, do not differentiate between black and white, what happened today was clearly wronged! It was Chen Ruoran, that fox girl, deliberately set me up! "

Shen Yao screamed hysterically, "Just what kind of bewitching soup did that fox spirit feed you, for you to protect her like this?"

"Have you scolded enough!?" Kong Linyuan reached out and grabbed Shen Yao's wrist.

When he heard Shen Yao call Chen Ruoran a fox spirit, his anger grew even more intense.

"What is it? I said a few words of her fox spirit and you feel bad? " Shen Yao looked at Kong Linyuan with a cold smile, and screamed, "Let me tell you, there's something worse that I haven't told you yet! "She, Chen Ruoran, is clearly a fox charmer, it's fine that she plotted against me, but now she's even bewitching our master. She, a mere concubine, actually has delusions of trying to climb onto my head …"

"Pa ~ ~ ~"

A crisp slap sounded in the main hall.
