Princess Changze's hand lightly rested on his abdomen, not saying a word.

She had been doted upon for her entire life, and if she glanced at anything she wanted, her father and brother would bring it to her. Afterwards, even if her royal father and mother had passed away, and she was brought close to the Tzu Ning Palace by the Empress Dowager Wang, she had never suffered any grievances or grievances. What she wanted, even if she did not have the Kunning Palace, the Empress Dowager Wang would definitely not lose her.

However, from start to finish, what she wanted was only the Abel, and what she could not obtain seemed even more precious — this was her perseverance and wish for many years.

It was just that the Princess Changze didn't dare to take his own child to risk his life. If he really gave up on his, it would be worth it if he married her. But if he couldn't protect his child, wouldn't the Empress Dowager Wang and his brother allow her to marry the Abel?

If this matter had not happened tonight, the Madam Lian would have died without a sound. She could have married the Abel without a hitch, so no one would suspect anything. Unless everyone in the world was a fool, who would dare to marry a girl who had carried another person's child in their hands? Even moving their toes would be able to link the death of Madam Lian with her. She did not dare to take the blame …

Princess Changze felt that he had never made such a difficult choice in his life before. It was as if no matter how he chose, he would always make the wrong choice.

Lin Shu did not urge her, she only carried the tea Gu and sat on the spot to drink her tea.

The little palace maid who sent a message to Empress Dowager Wang only said in a low voice, "Reporting to Princess Changze and Miss Lin, Sister Man Jing said that Esteemed Empress Dowager has already rested up for a while and told Princess Changze to take good care of himself."

Actually, when she was outside the curtain just now, she heard the small and insignificant sounds of the tea Gu from inside the room, and it was accompanied by the furious voice of the Empress Dowager Wang, "So what if she's awake, don't tell me she's carrying a vile creature in her stomach and still wants to sorrowfully visit her? In the future, don't tell This Dowager anything about her, just wait for her body to be more or less recovered before returning to the King Rui Palace! "

As for the palace maid that sent a message to the Empress Zhang, he was sent out before he even saw the Empress Zhang.

For a moment, the Princess Changze's expression became even uglier.

However, Lin Shu said with a smile: "Princess Changze, you can think about it carefully.

"I'm afraid that everyone in the Palace already knows of the ugly things that happened between Wang Pei and me?" Princess Changze laughed miserably, tears flowing down his face. "So what if I'm married to Wang Pei? I have at least hugged the child in my stomach. Using my marriage to exchange for Madam Lian's life, it can be considered worth it. "

She had thought it through clearly. So what if she married Wang Pei that idiot? Would Wang Pei dare to stop her from contacting the Abel? Right now, what she needed to do was to protect the child of the Abel. As for Wang Pei … It was easy to solve the problem, it was just a nephew sent by Empress Dowager Wang. If she died, she would die, and once this crisis was over, she would be able to marry Abel in glory.

Lin Shu was stunned when she heard this. After a while, she walked up to the Princess Changze and grabbed her hand, and asked with a trembling voice: "What, what did you say?"

"I have neglected today's matter. I did not foresee that you would have such ability and courage! Lin Shu, do you really think you've won? " Princess Changze's eyes were staring blankly at the blue water pattern on the ceiling of the tent, she sneered, and then heard her own voice, "If you call me unhappy, I will make you pay a thousand times the price. I estimate that Madam Lian is already dead, and I'm afraid that news of Madam Lian's death will reach the palace tomorrow morning, I wonder if you were happy after hearing the news?"

His voice was light and lifeless.

Lin Shu tightly held onto Princess Changze's plump wrist, as though she had used up all of her strength. Princess Changze's wrist was pinched red, but neither of them noticed it.

When Lin Shu came to her senses, she had actually ran out while crying.

Actinin Qin, who had been standing outside the whole time, also hurried over and shouted: "Miss, Miss, what's wrong with you?"

Lin Shu ran very fast, and right now, she didn't care if Empress Dowager Wang was happy or not, she only wanted to go back and see his mother. She wished that Princess Changze was lying to her, but when she thought about it again, his victory today was truly too smooth. Had the Maid Du already succeeded?

She burst into tears.

When she reached the entrance to Empress Dowager Wang's inner chamber, she wiped away her tears and forced herself to speak. "I'll have to trouble Big Sis Man Jing to help me relay a message to esteemed empress dowager that I want to see esteemed empress dowager."

Man Jing's expression was the same as usual as she said softly, "Just now, something happened at the Princess Changze. If Miss Lin has anything to say, she should wait for tomorrow before saying anything. Empress Dowager's mood isn't good. Please don't make Esteemed Empress Dowager angry …"

"But I, I really have urgent matters to discuss with Esteemed Empress Dowager." Lin Shu's tears fell again. She told herself not to cry, but who knew that these tears would be so disobedient. "My mother, my mother might not be able to continue anymore …"

Man Jing hesitated for a moment, but in the end, she still turned around and entered.

"It's already curfew time, but Esteemed Empress Dowager said that since it's bad for the Fifth Madam, she'll take Esteemed Empress Dowager's cards. I'll immediately arrange for people to send Miss Lin out. Follow me!"

She had always had this kind of personality. Although people were extremely intelligent, they would never say more than one word. Just now, they would never ask another word, like now.

With the Empress Dowager Wang's competition and Man Jing personally coming out, Lin Shu, on the other hand, left the palace without a hitch.

It was just that as they sat on the carriage on the way back, Lin Shu's tears never stopped. Actinin Qin and Yun Dou, who were standing beside her, did not know what to say either.

Waiting until they had reached the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion's gate, Actinin Qin had merely revealed Lin Shu's identity, so a flustered servant carried a lantern and brought her to the Fanghua Garden.

Even though it was already late in the night, Lin Shu could still see some sympathy in the servant's eyes.

Although the attendant of the gatekeeper was of lowly status, he was the most well-informed.

Although it was already ugly after making such a ruckus at the Tzu Ning Palace, Lin Shu could still see the lights from far away. Her heart sank a little, as if she had sunk to the ice-cold bottom of the sea.

Before Lin Shu could enter the inner room, Furong, who was waiting at the door, cried out when she saw her. "Miss, Miss, you're finally back.

Lin Shu nodded and walked in.

Madam Lian's face was pale, it was even uglier than her face just now. There was a peony waiting beside her bed, along with Yao and a couple of old doctors with white hair.

In succession, Yao saw the dumbstruck Lin Shu and said softly, "Aunt, she …"

Lin Shu only felt that her chest was short of breath. Just as she opened her mouth, her tears had already started flowing, "Mother, mother!"

Just now, on the way here, she still had an unreal feeling in her heart. Her mother said that she wanted to protect her since she was young and that she wanted to watch her getting married. How did she become like this? Before she left, she had repeatedly warned her mother not to believe Princess Changze's words. Her mother had clearly agreed to it, how did she become like this now …

He hurriedly said: "Although aunt is in a dangerous situation now, it's not like I don't have any chance of survival. Fortunately, after Peony found out that aunt was going to die, she sent someone to find me in White Horse Institute, and I also have the antidote Dad gave me, so I've already given aunt two pills. The doctor said just now that if aunt can endure through tonight, she'll be able to raise me for at least three or two years …"

He was so flustered that he did not know what he was talking about. He had no idea what kind of treasure the antidote was, as he only had two pills in total and gave them to his aunt. If it was any ordinary poison, there wouldn't be much of a problem, but his aunt was still alive.

Lin Shu nodded, she half knelt in front of the bed and held Madam Lian's hand, and said: "Mother, I am Sister Shu, I am your Sister Shu. Open your eyes and look at me, I beg of you, open your eyes and look at me okay …."

She was sobbing like a kitten, and she couldn't seem to catch her breath.

Everyone in the room couldn't help but turn their heads and wipe away their tears.

Lin Shu and the doctor stayed in the house until midnight. No matter how Actinin Qin and the others tried to persuade him, Lin Shu refused to leave.

Lin Shu sat on the brick bed and looked at the full bowl of chicken noodle soup, which was sprinkled with spring onions and two poached eggs. It looked extremely delicious, but she only used two bites before putting down the chopsticks, "Brother Yao, I really can't eat this."

Liao Yao could only sigh. "How about I get the kitchen to bring you another bowl of milk porridge?"

Lin Shu shook her head, "I can't eat anything now."

She hadn't eaten anything all day, but her stomach was full of fear. She couldn't stop thinking about her mother lying in the coffin with her eyes slightly closed, as if she was asleep. It was just like lying in a hospital bed.

She felt her eyes go sour again, "Brother Yao, you have been running all over the place today, go and rest. If anything happens, I will ask the servant girl to call you."

With that, she added, "Now, the only thing I can rely on is you. You can't fall ill." It was really pitiful. Now that she had such a large Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion, she could only rely on her cousin who had another surname.
