people just walked out of the East Palace gate not far away, the eunuch carrying the sedan chair tripped and directly threw the rippling sitting in the soft sedan chair out. Rippling fainted on the sp...After solving Qingran's problems, Lianyi left Junzhou and headed towards Fangzhou. Her destination was always Kyoto.

Gu Die'er of the Imperial Harem still had no idea that her best friend was slowly getting closer to her. She was currently listening to Lancao report on the latest news from the East Palace.

"Miss, Concubine Min had a miscarriage. It is said that the baby was only a month old. She didn't even know herself. It was discovered because the incense in her residence contained musk. Steward Su is currently leading people to investigate."

"The Crown Princess didn't interfere"

It is said that the Crown Princess was startled. When Gu MaMa, who was beside her, heard about it, she immediately went to check the incense used by the Crown Princess on a daily basis and then went to see His Royal Highness the Prince.

It is said that the Crown Princess's incense also had something added to it, but only because the Crown Princess was careful. Ever since she became pregnant, she stopped using incense in her room or scented clothing, which is why this matter did not come to light. The Crown Prince was furious and specifically sent Su An to investigate.

Gu Die'er said with disdain after hearing this:

"Must be the thief crying 'thief'!"

"What the lady means is that this is the work of the Crown Princess."

Besides her, who else could have such a long reach The eunuchs wouldn't dare.

But Consort Min had her pulse taken two months ago and was not found to be pregnant!

Lancao said doubtfully.

“That’s because the Crown Princess knew I had been framed and was unable to bear children. However, Consort Min should have avoided her scheme, so she had a second one. It’s just that Consort Min was careless and didn’t even know she was pregnant, which gave others an opportunity.”

"Miss, only you in the prince's backyard haven't been pregnant or had an accident. Do you think the prince will suspect you"

"You're right, the Crown Prince is naturally suspicious. To avoid unnecessary trouble, go spend some silver now to hire a physician. Remember to avoid those who frequently see the Crown Princess for checkups. Find someone new to give me a pulse reading."

Yes, Miss. I'll go right away.

Lan Cai's skirt was tucked up as she hurried to summon the imperial physician.

While Imperial Consort Xu and Lady Wu suspected the Crown Princess, they also suspected Gu Die'er. After all, of the five women in the Crown Prince's courtyard, only she had remained inactive. Perhaps out of jealousy, she might have taken action.

However, the two still focused their suspicion on the Crown Princess. After all, no matter who among the three of them gave birth to a boy, whoever was in the Crown Princess's belly was a threat. Since it was a threat, the Crown Princess would definitely take action to eliminate it.

Gu Die'er spent silver to have the new, inexperienced doctor from the Imperial Medical Bureau check her pulse. Then news of her infertility spread instantly throughout the Prince's courtyard.

When several women learned the news, their expressions were all different.

The Crown Princess: This fool is actually being clever for once

Princess Xu, Princess Min, and Lady Wu: Turns out this unlucky person was caught in the first round. As expected of a merchant's daughter, she doesn't even qualify to compete with them.

Gu Die'er: I only let the fact that I can't have children be known, making myself a victim, to see what the Crown Prince will do.

Xin Yuan heard from Su Anhui that Gu Die'er had fainted, and he frowned, asking for the reason.

Su An hesitated for a moment before speaking:

Gu Die'er was frightened by the miscarriage of Min Side Consort, and she was also afraid that she would lose her child like Min Side Consort, unknowingly. So, she asked the imperial physician to feel her pulse, and the result...

"What's the result Don't beat around the bush, just say it!"

Xin Yuan suddenly had a bad feeling and immediately said in a stern voice.

"Your Highness, Gu Die'er didn't know when she became pregnant. The imperial physician diagnosed that she had lost her fertility."

"What Really"

"Indeed, it was Taiyi Sun Yu, the grandson of Tai Hospital's chief physician, who took her pulse. Gu Liangyuan couldn't stand the blow and fainted."

The Crown Prince's face was rather unsightly. He hadn't expected these women in the harem to be so ruthless, daring to cut off Gu Die'er's path right under his nose. He gritted his teeth and said:

"Su An, look into this for me. I want to know who's behind it. If we don't give Gu Die'er an explanation, the Gu family will certainly not be our obedient money bag. A childless marriage is unreliable."

"Yes, I'll check right away."

Xin Yuan also couldn't sit still, ordered some medicinal herbs, and then took people to Gu Die'er's residence.

Gu Die'er now had on a sickly makeup, making her appear severely distressed. Upon seeing Xin Yuan, tears streamed down her face like broken beads. She struggled to get up from the bed and knelt before him, her voice choked with sobs as she said:

"Your Highness, you must take pity on Butterfly!"

"Rise quickly, do not be saddened, this palace will surely make things right for you!"

Xin Yuan felt very uncomfortable and immediately stepped forward to help Gu Die'er, who was kneeling, up.

Gu Die'er grabbed Xin Yuan's arm with both hands, her grip so tight it was frightening. It hurt even Xin Yuan, but in this situation, he couldn't pull his hand away. He could only help her sit down on the bed.

Gu Die'er seemed to realize she had overstepped, drawing her hand back and then addressing the roomful of servants:

"All of you leave. I want to speak with the Crown Prince alone."

Lancao immediately bowed respectfully, and she withdrew with her maidservant and nurse. However, the people around the Crown Prince did not leave.

Gu Die'er looked dejected and said to Xin Yuan:

"Your Highness, let Grand Tutor Su remain to attend to you. Everyone else, please leave. This concubine has something to say to Your Highness."

Xinyuan came this time to appease Gu Die'er, so naturally he had to go along with her. He waved his hand, letting everyone else leave, only leaving Su An by his side.

Gu Die'er wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, her sorrowful eyes fixed on Xin Yuan as she spoke softly:

"Your Highness, from the first time I saw you, Die'er knew that your approach to me was purposeful. Your eyes held admiration and curiosity for Die'er, but there was no love. Die'er could feel it."

Butterfly was young, and she only thought of herself as having met a learned friend. Butterfly believed she hadn't given the Prince any wrong signals, but an imperial decree shattered her life. That's when I realized Xin Yuan was the current Crown Prince.

Everyone around me praises my good fortune, saying that I've been favored by the prince. They say I'm like a phoenix that has flown to a branch, destined for great wealth and honor. Only my mother held me and cried wet tears on my shoulders.

At that time, I didn't understand why I had to marry someone I didn't like, and even as a concubine. Even if he was the most honorable person in the world, I wouldn't be happy.

A butterfly's heart is small, holding only one person. I only hope that in this life, someone will love and protect me, cherish and treasure me. If we also have a child together, then it would be perfect.

But all of these were buried with me the day I was carried into the East Palace!

The Butterfly doesn't understand what grand schemes are, but I respect my mother's hardship and pity my younger brother who is too young to run the household. So I put aside the past and focused all my thoughts on Your Highness, considering you as my heaven.

The butterfly doesn't ask for anything, even if it's a trade of interests. All she hopes is that Your Highness will protect her, allowing her to live a peaceful life. Even having a child is beyond her wildest dreams.

But now, Die'er has even been deprived of the right to be a mother. If this is your Lordship's intention, then Die'er naturally knows how to act accordingly in the future. If not, please, Your Lordship, grant me justice. she said.Liàn Yī immediately had an idea. She said to Gān Yùn:Let me know if you'd like me to translate any other text!"Excuse me, could you please have your Ao Xiang and my Duo Duo work together""We...
