Chapter 141 Revenge
The next morning, Lan Qingwu woke up in Suowu Palace. Ruhan was already waiting in the bedroom. "Master, something happened. Last night, Shen Cainu from Lixiu Palace summoned the imperial physician. Shen Cainu...had a miscarriage."
Lan Qingwu was shocked: "Do you know what the reason is?"
Ruhan shook his head: "I only heard that Shen Cainu was heartbroken and crying."
Lan Qingwu pondered for a moment and said, "Send someone to deliver some supplements, and remember to ask the imperial physician to check it out."
Ruhan took the order and left.
In Lixiu Palace, the other concubines who lived there came out of Shen Cainv's bedroom one after another. One of them said, "I really don't know what's wrong with Shen Cainv. She's fine..."
Another woman snorted: "What else can I do? I'm not that lucky."
Someone coughed lightly and several people dispersed in an instant and returned to their own palaces.
Shen Cainu stared at the supplement in Xuewen's hand and asked, "Who did you say gave it to you?"
Xue Wen whispered, "My lady, it's... Concubine Yi from Suowu Palace. Not only Concubine Yi, but also Concubine Jiang and Concubine Chen... have all sent supplements. Don't worry about anything else. Taking good care of your health is the most important thing..."
"Throw it out!" Shen Cainu suddenly shouted, "Throw it out! It's her! It's Concubine Yi! She caused me to lose the child with His Majesty! Who wants her supplements? Throw it out!"
Xue Wen was startled and quickly comforted her, "I'll throw it out right away. My lady, please don't be angry!"
Shen Cainu seemed not to hear: "It's all her fault, it's all because of Concubine Yi! Yes, I'm going to tell Concubine Jiang that it was Concubine Yi who ruined me! She made me lose the prince with His Majesty, and I want her to pay the price!"
Lan Qingwu, who was still in Suowu Palace, was reading a letter from Gao Lanyan: "Qingci Courtyard has made proper arrangements for Qiulan's two sisters. It's a pity..."
Ruhan comforted him, "Master, Qingciyuan has saved countless children and women. The world is so big, how could Qingciyuan alone save them all? We just need to do our best!"
Lan Qingwu looked at Ruhan: "You are right, I just feel a little emotional."
She just took it for granted. Even in her original world, there were endless poor and weak people who could be saved.
Ru Ping hurriedly asked, "Master, is there still no news about the person who donates two huge sums of money to Qingci Hospital every year?"
Lan Qingwu shook his head: "How could it be possible to find out? This person is deliberately concealing the truth. He must be someone powerful and doesn't want to reveal his identity. However, our wife of the Duke of Rong may have good news!"
The master and his servants were chatting when Ruyan suddenly came back to report, "Your Majesty, someone has come from De'an Palace, and they want you to go there immediately!"
Lan Qingwu had a bad premonition in his heart. Most sudden events were not good things.
In De'an Palace, Concubine Jiang, Concubine Chen, Concubine Wan, Concubine Yang Guipin, and Concubine Liang Guipin were all in the main hall. Despite her recent injuries, Shen Cainu was kneeling in the center of the hall, tearfully complaining, "I was simply curious, so I followed the note and went to the prayer platform. I didn't expect to see Concubine Yi there, and then I didn't check and fell to the ground... Please, ladies and gentlemen, help me!"
Concubine Jiang frowned, Concubine Wan was nonchalant, Concubine Chen was as gentle as ever, Concubine Yang remained silent, and Concubine Liang put down her teacup. "Let's not talk about who wrote the note. When you got to the prayer platform, you only saw Concubine Yi. It wasn't Concubine Yi who pushed you down. In the end, you fell by accident! Could it be that this person who harmed you tricked you there and showed you who he was? Who is so stupid?"
Shen Cainu cried, "My Lady, the words written on the note should have been written by Concubine Yi. Everyone in the palace knows that Concubine Yi is the daughter of a military commander, so her handwriting is ordinary. We will know this when Concubine Yi arrives."
"When I fell, there were clearly gravels under my feet. It was obvious that someone had placed them there beforehand. Concubine Yi must have wanted to see me fall in person before she went there to check!"
Concubine Wan coughed lightly and said, "I heard that Shen Cainu and Yipin had some conflicts before, and Yipin was injured because of Shen Cainu. This might really be..."
Concubine Jiang said, "Don't make rash assumptions. Wait for Concubine Yi to arrive and hear what she has to say. Your Majesty will surely inquire about this matter."
Just as Concubine Jiang finished speaking, she heard the palace servants shouting, "Your Majesty has arrived!"
The concubines hurriedly stood up to greet him. Emperor Shenwu walked to the main seat and sat down, waving his sleeves and saying, "Stand up!"
After the concubines stood up, they saw that Lan Qingwu had come with Emperor Shenwu.
The concubines sat in their seats in turn.
Concubine Jiang repeated what had happened: "Your Majesty, this is exactly what happened. Shen Cainu said there was a note written by Concubine Yi, and that she also saw Concubine Yi at the prayer platform."
Lan Qingwu felt a tightness in her chest. Although she and Shen Cainv had some natural... incompatibility, she had never thought of being hostile to her. When did she want to harm Shen Cainv's child?
Lan Qingwu's eyes turned slightly, and she thought of the look Shen Cainu had given the Emperor Shenwu, that infatuated look with only one person in her eyes! She seemed to understand a little.
Love breeds sorrow, love breeds hatred! It is because of Emperor Shenwu that Shen Cainu hates herself so deeply.
Lan Qingwu was about to speak when Emperor Shenwu looked at Shen Cainu, who was kneeling in the hall. "You said you saw Concubine Yi on the prayer platform? Someone, bring the Tongshi here!"
Li Xiang immediately bowed and left the main hall of De'an Palace.
Lan Qingwu seemed to sense something and raised his eyes slightly to look at Emperor Shenwu. Emperor Shenwu did not look at Lan Qingwu, but just closed his eyes slightly and began to rest.
A moment later, Li Xiang walked in from outside the hall. He bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I have brought it here."
Emperor Shenwu waved his hand, and Li Xiang immediately handed the Tongshi to Concubine Jiang respectfully: "Empress Jiang, please come in."
Concubine Jiang's eyes flickered as she reached out to take it. She flipped through it for a few times and said, "Your Majesty, this last night..."
"After I finished my government affairs last night, I went to Suowu Palace to visit Concubine Yi. Shen Cainu, when did you say you saw Concubine Yi last night?"
Shen Cainu felt a little dizzy. Could it be that after Concubine Yi returned to Suowu Palace last night, Emperor Shenwu went to Suowu Palace again?
"I...I met Concubine Yi at about the hour of Xu."
"But I arrived at Suowu Palace before the hour of Xu last night, and Concubine Yi was there to welcome me!"
Shen Cainu's eyes widened. "Your Majesty—he's lying. He's lying for Concubine Yi! Why? Does Your Majesty really like Concubine Yi so much?"
Shen Cainu seemed to have received a huge blow. She stammered, "No... No, Concubine Yi was at the prayer platform at the hour of Xu?"
Liang Guipin frowned. "Shen Cainu, what you said, even if Sister Yipin was on the prayer platform at that time, she couldn't see you below the platform, right? Isn't what you said contradicting yourself?"
Lan Qingwu also looked at Shen Cainv. It seemed that Shen Cainv could not accept her miscarriage for the time being, and hated her to the core, so she framed her.
