I was a concubine in Legend of Zhen Huan

Chapter 141 Guar Jia Wen Yuan (8)

Wen Yuan covered her stomach and screamed exaggeratedly: "Wuwuwu, Yunshu, my stomach hurts so much. Will I be scared into having a miscarriage? Wuwuwu, will the baby be okay?"

Wen Yuan squeezed out her tears and observed Yinreng's expression from time to time. Yinreng was helpless, pretending to cry and have a stomachache but not putting his heart into it.

Who holds their chest and screams when they have a stomachache?

But fearing that she was really frightened by his cold face just now, Yinreng still asked Yunshu to go out and call the imperial physician. Yunshu glanced in Wenyuan's direction, meaning to ask whether she should listen to the prince.

Wen Yuan saw that Yinreng's face looked better than when he first entered the room, but still a little cold, and she was afraid.

He hugged Yunshu tightly and refused to let go: "No, no, I want Yunshu to stay here with me. Ask the little Lizi who follows you to go and invite him."

In front of so many eunuchs and palace maids, Yinreng didn't want to lose her face, so he had to let Xiaolizi go and get the imperial physician as she said.

When the imperial physician came to take Wen Yuan's pulse, he said that she was just angry for a moment and asked her to calm down. If that didn't work, he would prescribe two doses of calming medicine.

Yinreng was really surprised to hear this. He just thought Wen Yuan was pretending to be sick because she was afraid that he would be angry. He didn't expect that she was really unwell.

After he took it seriously, he asked the imperial physician about Wen Yuan's health condition again and again. Only after the imperial physician repeatedly said that Wen Yuan was in good health did he let her go back to the imperial hospital.

After the imperial physician examined him and he took the medicine, Yinreng's anger had completely dissipated.

But the anger dissipated, but the matter was still there. The prince did not give Wen Yuan a chance to speak this time, and he held her and pushed her onto the bed. When the surrounding palace maids and eunuchs saw this, they knew that the scene that followed was not something they could watch, so they left without anyone clearing the area.

Yunshu was worried that the prince would do something reckless without considering the baby in Wen Yuan's belly, but as an unmarried palace maid, she could not say anything about such things at the moment.

Moreover, she regained some of her rationality and remembered that the Crown Prince was so concerned about the Crown Princess that he probably treasured the baby in her belly more than anyone else. She knew that she was too concerned and had no reason to stay.

When only Wenyuan and Yinreng were left in the room, she became a little scared again. She simply took off her shoes and crawled into the quilt, like an ostrich burying its head in the desert.

But since Yinreng had made up his mind to have a good talk with her, how could he let her escape like this?

Fortunately, it was already night, so Yinreng simply took off his shoes and socks and went to bed, and grabbed the little fool who was deceiving himself and others and could not even cover his ears and steal the bell into his arms.

Wen Yuan was held in Yinreng's arms like a child, unable to break free. She spoke with a little lack of confidence: "What are you doing? I just drank the medicine, and now I feel sleepy and want to sleep."

As soon as she opened her mouth, she tried to escape and even tried to break free from his embrace. Yinreng was almost amused by her: "I ask you, why are you so angry? Don't lie or escape anymore, otherwise I will be even angrier."

Wen Yuan glanced at his face and saw that he was worried, and immediately forgot all her previous fear.

She nestled in Yinreng's arms, almost counting on her fingers to express her grievances: "You're still talking. Isn't it because of those disobedient servants in Yuqing Palace? I'm not the kind of person who wrongly accuses people. Which of those I sent back to the Ministry of Internal Affairs didn't commit a lot of crimes?

Wouldn't people be angry when they see so many incriminating evidence on those people that they can hardly count them all?"

Seeing that Yinreng seemed to be listening carefully, Wen Yuan became even more arrogant.

She began to accuse Yinreng in a coquettish tone: "My master said, I spent so much time and effort to help you deal with these stubborn slaves, and you didn't thank me, but when you came back today, the anger on your face was so strong that it could scare away a dozen children. I was almost scared to death by you."

After she had finished complaining, Wen Yuan began to worry that if she said too much, Yinreng would blame her. She put Yinreng's hand to her chest as a remedy, "Please touch me, Master. You scared me so much that I am still uneasy."

Yinreng glanced at her, and Wen Yuan smiled awkwardly, and finally stopped acting weird.

Yinreng couldn't help but sigh when he saw that she had finally behaved herself. They had lived together for such a long time, how could he not tell whether Wenyuan was really being honest or just pretending to be honest.

I'm afraid that she is probably intimidated by my pressure now, pretending to be well-behaved on the surface, but in her heart she doesn't think she has done anything wrong.

Fearing that she would cause even bigger trouble in the future, Yinreng had no choice but to hug her and patiently explain the reason to her.

"I know that some of the palace maids and eunuchs have taken advantage of my power to embezzle and solicit bribes. But if the water is too clear, there will be no fish. You have only been married for less than a year and you have already carried out a drastic 'confiscation of property' in Yuqing Palace. If the boss's people knew about it, they would inevitably say that the Crown Princess is domineering.

I know you work so hard to manage this family and for me. I have also seen the evidence of Dezhu and others' crimes that you sent to me. I was really surprised by what you found out. I just thought they embezzled some gold and silver, but I never thought that their subordinates would be so bold. I have to thank you for this.

Only one thing, next time you encounter such a thing, you should discuss it with me in advance. I am not trying to protect them, but we should discuss some more comprehensive methods, or you can tell me and let me be the bad guy. Anyway, I already have a reputation for being harsh to my subordinates and beating eunuchs to death, so I won’t affect your reputation for being wise and tolerant, right? "

The prince's voice was calm and there was no hint of blame in his words.

This made Wen Yuan feel a little embarrassed. Most of the people she dealt with were the crown prince's closest confidants, and many of them had been friends with Yinreng for many years.

The reason why Wen Yuan didn't tell Yinreng at that time was that she was afraid that if she told him in advance, he would protect those people. That's why Wen Yuan thought of killing first and reporting later. Anyway, she still had the imperial sword in her belly, and Yinreng couldn't do anything to her. She secretly made a big move and dealt with all these people at once.

After hearing what Yinreng said, it seemed that he was a petty person.

The next day, when Wen Yuan learned from Yunshu what Yinreng did afterwards, her inner guilt reached its peak.

It turned out that the couple had a long talk last night. After Yinreng coaxed her to sleep with a gentle voice, he did not go to bed himself. Yinreng was cleaning up the aftermath of her surprise "house search".

After the prince changed his clothes, he first called all the servants in Yuqing Palace and Xiefang Palace, as well as all his concubines living in Xiefang Palace, to give them a lecture.

In front of everyone in the Eastern Palace, Yinreng emphasized that it was he who discovered that the servants who were punished were not honest, and he was busy with government affairs during the day, so he asked the Crown Princess to punish these stubborn servants on his behalf.

After firmly saying that the Crown Princess' order was his own will and taking all the responsibility on himself, Yinreng gave these people a good lecture. He could forgive those who had committed minor offenses in the past, but if anyone dared to commit the same offense again in the future, he would never tolerate it.

Looking at Yinreng's attitude, it was clear that he and the Crown Princess were from the same country. Those who were restless and had planned to complain and stir up trouble after the Crown Prince returned, now completely stopped.

But it is far from enough to explain the situation in one's own palace.

Wen Yuan's commotion was really too big. Concubine Tong and the four concubines still hold power in the harem, and the other princes are still living in the palace. It is impossible for the news of Yuqing Palace's rectification of the troublesome slaves not to spread.

Since he had already taken the responsibility, Yinreng decided to investigate thoroughly.
