Chapter 45 The mantis catches the cicada, the oriole is behind (3)
After breakfast, Yan Jingshen ordered Situ Liu and others to go back to their room to rest.
It is said that they should have slept until the afternoon, but suddenly appeared at this time, and something very urgent happened.
Yan Jingshen took a few steps forward: "Is there something wrong with the Queen?"
Situ Liu hurriedly told the story.
It turned out that early this morning, the summer moon was cold and asked someone to send them breakfast, and arranged for people to send letters to the capital.
I guess Xia Fanshuang should have woken up, so she took Chunzhuo and Mingzao to her yard.
After resting for a whole night, Xia Fanshuang's spirit recovered a lot. After the two sisters talked for a while, she asked someone to hug the little prince.
Not long after, the wet nurse Yin came with her little cradle, but there was no sight of Pu Jina and Sanna.
Xia Fanshuang didn't think much about it. After all, they were old and it was worth a good rest after they were tired.
Moreover, Yin is her companion, so she is naturally more reliable than others.
However, when she took the small swaddle from Yin's hand and opened it, she was stunned.
The picture of the hundred babies embroidered by the mother is correct. The weight of the child is similar, but the red face becomes white and tender, and his eyes are wide open. He is definitely not a newborn baby, nor is he the son of her and Li Yuanyu.
Xia Fanshuang felt dizzy and the child in her hand almost slipped down.
"Shuang'er--"
"Second sister——"
Li Yuanyu supported his wife, while Xia Yueliang quickly took over the small cradle.
After seeing the baby's face clearly, she immediately understood everything.
Her little nephew was thrown away!
Just as he was about to break out, a sudden thud behind him, the wet nurse Yin fell heavily to the ground, with fishy black blood flowing out of her mouth and nose, and no longer breathing.
"Diet?" Yan Jingshen frowned and his fists clenched.
Situ Liu nodded: "Yes, the wet nurse died on the spot. After careful examination, she hid a very poison in her teeth and bit her tongue and died of poison.
There is also that child, I heard that he is a baby girl who has been born half a month ago.”
"What did King Yasu say?" Yan Jingshen asked.
"The prince has sent someone to search the wet nurse's room, and I believe there will be a result soon.
It was him who asked his subordinates to come and find the young master, and please go to his study as soon as possible."
"I heard that the wet nurse is the queen's accompanying her room, so where is her home?"
Although the customs of Yasu City are very different from those of Fengguo, there are still many rules in the palace.
Xia Fanshuang's accompanying room has men and women, so it is not convenient to live in the palace, so Yan Jingshuang has this question.
Situ Liu said: "There is a large mansion outside the northwest corner of the palace, where the Queen's accompanying house lived. Just now, King Yasu had someone to surround the house."
Yan Jingshen said: "You go and call Duanmuyang and take a few thoughtful people to the house to search carefully, especially the wet nurse's house, no corner is left."
"Yes." Situ Liu hugged her fists and turned around and left.
Yan Jingshen took the dozen guards of the royal palace to Li Yuanyu's study.
At this time, Li Yuanyu was like an ant on a hot pan, and his first father's joy had long disappeared without a trace.
"Depth of Field, you're here." He grabbed Yan Jingshen's wrist.
"Brother Yuan Yu must not be anxious. The more you are like this, the more you need to calm down."
Li Yuanyu's eyes were covered with red blood, as if he was about to drip.
"Gu Yannan is so cruel. He can actually do it less than a day after the child was born!"
Yan Jingshen patted his shoulder with his other hand: "Gu Yannan spent so much effort, it would never be just to take revenge on you couples."
The little prince is his bargaining chip, and he must have another goal. So before he achieves his goal, he will definitely take good care of the little prince."
Li Yuanyu said in a hoarse voice: "The third sister said the same thing just now, but the child is too young, how can he withstand the tossing..."
Yan Jingshen is also a father. He knows that no matter what he says, he will look very pale and will not be able to comfort him at all.
"What's going on with the Queen now?" he could only ask.
"Shuang'er fainted when she saw the child being dropped. The imperial physicians said it was a furious.
It’s just that she has just given birth and her body is too exhausted, so it will be more difficult to recover.”
"Brother Yuan Yu's situation is not very good either. Sit down and rest for a while."
Li Yuanyu let go of his hand, covered his face and squatted on the ground.
Yan Jingshen has known him for a short time, but he still knows him very well.
The men in Yasu City are martial and have a much stronger personality than most Fengguo men.
As King Yasu, Li Yuanyu is the best among them, and of course he will not be a weak person.
Moreover, he experienced many hardships when he was young, and he was by no means easily knocked down.
But at this moment he looked so fragile, as if he was about to break soon.
"Prince, Pu Jina and Sanna are awake!" An escort replied outside the study.
Li Yuanyu suddenly stood up and walked out of the study in three or two steps.
"What did they say?" He grabbed the guard's arm.
"They were both drugged, and Sanna's condition was even worse and she could not speak until now.
Pu Jina was slightly better. She said that after she sent the little prince to her wet nurse last night, the sisters had a cup of tea there.
After they returned to the room, they rested, but they knew that things would become so bad when they woke up."
Li Yuanyu thought for a while and said to Yan Jingshen behind him: "Double Field, what do you think about their poisoning?"
Yan Jingshen said: "The wet nurse committed suicide by taking poison on her own, because she knew that she would definitely not be able to survive after the incident.
But I heard that Pu Jina and Sanna's residence was arranged by Brother Yuan Yu himself, and he did not live with the wet nurse.
In other words, if the wet nurse wants to do something, then the two of them cannot get in the way of her. Why do she still have to drug them?
"This..." Li Yuanyu stroked his chin and said to the guard: "Immediately lock Pu Jina and Sanna up and guard it carefully. And they also sent some people to stare at it, and no one is allowed to leave the house."
"Yes." The guard did not dare to ask any more and turned around and left.
Li Yuanyu sighed: "Deep Field, am I too soft-hearted, that these people are fearless and dare to do anything."
Yan Jingshen said: "You can't say that. People die for money and birds die for food. Those people will not be honest just because their master is harsh.
Think about that wet nurse, she is the queen's roommate. The serious Xia family, don't they betray their master?"
While he was talking, someone came back and replied.
"Go back to the prince, the second son, there is a secret passage under the bed in Yin's room."
"Let's go and have a look." Li Yuanyu pulled Yan Jingshen and the two went to the harem together.
Soon, they came to the wet nurse's residence.
This place was originally a room for the little prince. It not only covers a large area, but also has a very exquisite and luxurious layout.
