Chapter 443 You are threatening me
"Yes," Du Fang replied.
When Du Fang arrived at the Crown Princess's courtyard, he saw the imperial physician hurriedly leaving with his medicine box on his back. He quickly called out to him, "Imperial Physician Liu, please stay."
When Doctor Liu heard Du Fang's voice, he stopped and secretly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Then he turned back and said to Du Fang with a dry smile: "Guard Du, what else do you want?"
Du Fang approached him and asked, "Have you ever treated the Crown Princess?"
Doctor Liu looked back at Shi Ziqin's yard and saw Qiuyun watching him in secret. He nodded stiffly to Du Fang and said, "I have seen it."
"What happened to the Crown Princess?" Du Fang asked immediately.
Doctor Liu paused for a moment and stammered, "Crown Princess, Crown Princess is not, is not seriously ill, it's just, she is a little weak during those few days of the month."
Seeing that Doctor Liu was having trouble speaking, Du Fang directly said to him, "My master is very worried about the Crown Princess's health. You are stuttering so much that I can't remember clearly. You can go and tell him yourself."
After saying this, he picked up Doctor Liu and ran towards his master.
When Qiuyun saw that Doctor Liu was captured by Du Fang, she hurried back to the house to report to her master: "Crown Princess, it's bad. Doctor Liu was captured by Guard Du."
After hearing what the maid said, Shi Ziqin quickly got up from the bed and said, "Qiuyun, go and stop him. We can't let him see the prince. We can't..."
Before Shi Ziqin could finish her words, she was so excited that she suddenly rolled off the bed with a thump.
"Crown Princess..." Qiu Yun was just about to help the Crown Princess when she didn't expect the door to be suddenly opened with a bang.
Jiang Qing walked in with a sullen face and asked her coldly, "Crown Princess, why can't Imperial Doctor Liu see me?"
When Shi Ziqin saw the prince coming, her already pale face instantly became even paler. She looked at Jiang Qing and said incoherently, "Your Highness, Your Highness, I, your concubine, it's just a small matter. No, I don't want to trouble you."
Jiang Qing approached her, bent down and pinched her chin, said "Oh" to her and asked: "Is it really like this? The Crown Princess of this palace?"
Shi Ziqin nodded and replied, "Your Highness, yes, that's right."
Jiang Qing snorted at her and ordered the guards behind him, "Zhao Lei, you check the Crown Princess yourself."
"Yes, master." After Zhao Lei finished speaking, he hurried forward to help the Crown Princess take her pulse.
Unexpectedly, Shi Ziqin hurriedly stepped back and said, "Your Highness, I'm fine. I don't need your pulse."
Jiang Qing held her tightly and said, "If I say you want to see it, you must see it."
As soon as he finished speaking, he shouted to his subordinates, "Take the pulse!"
"Yes, master." After Zhao Lei finished speaking, he ignored Shi Ziqin's struggle and hurriedly helped her take her pulse.
However, the moment he felt the Crown Princess's pulse, his expression suddenly changed, and he looked at his master with sympathy in his eyes.
Zhao Lei takes care of his master's health all day long. He knows very well what his master does every day. His master has not had any sexual intercourse in the past five years, so it is impossible for him to cause the Crown Princess to have a miscarriage.
Jiang Qing saw that his subordinates looked unhappy, so he asked them, "What's wrong?"
Zhao Lei hesitated for a moment, but still confessed to his master: "Master, the Crown Princess had a miscarriage, and..."
Zhao Lei's words that the Crown Princess had a miscarriage made Jiang Qing's brain explode. Before his subordinate could finish, he pulled Shi Ziqin up and slapped her face several times, angrily saying, "Bitch, how dare you cheat on me?"
After saying this, he slapped her several times and asked her, "Tell me, who is the adulterer?"
Shi Ziqin's face turned pale the moment her pulse was forcibly felt. She knew that no matter whether she was innocent or willing, she would not survive.
Seeing Jiang Qing waiting for her reply with anger on his face, she covered her beaten face and said to Jiang Qing with tears in her eyes: "Your Highness, whether you believe it or not, I was murdered."
Jiang Qing pinched her face tightly and taunted her, "Then tell me who is so bold as to sleep with my woman in my Prince's Mansion!"
Shi Ziqin shook her head and said, "I don't know him, and I don't know him."
Seeing that she still didn't tell the truth, Jiang Qing slapped her and shouted angrily: "Bitch, if you don't know me, why did you steal my jade pendant?"
"Tell me, who is this person?" Jiang Qing yelled at Shi Ziqin.
Shi Ziqin cried and said, "I really don't know."
Seeing this, Jiang Qing ordered his subordinates, "Come here, lock up this shameless woman and send her back to Master Shi tomorrow morning."
"Yes, master." After Du Fang finished speaking, he asked a few of his companions to drag Shi Ziqin away.
Qiu Yun quickly begged the prince for mercy: "Your Highness, please let the Crown Princess go. She is really innocent!"
Jiang Qing hadn't noticed the maid at first, but after hearing her begging for mercy, he kicked her in the chest and said, "The Crown Princess must have contributed to this."
"Someone, take this bitch away with you." Jiang Qing said.
"Yes, master." Du Fang replied.
When Shi Ziqin heard that she was going to be sent back to the Imperial Tutor's Mansion, she struggled to beg Jiang Qing for mercy, saying, "Your Highness, I was wrong. Please don't send me back to the Imperial Tutor's Mansion. I will die now to make amends!"
After she finished speaking, she struggled hard and tried to hit her head against the pillar to commit suicide, but the guards holding her down didn't give her any chance.
Jiang Qing approached her and sneered, "Don't worry, you will die, but you will definitely not die in this palace's prince's mansion, because you are too dirty."
Jiang Qing's words "you are too dirty" made Shi Ziqin completely collapse. Since they got married, she had remained a virgin for him and lived like a widow every year without any complaints.
I didn't expect that when I was framed, he would not only not help me, but also complain about her being dirty. How could he do that? How could he be so heartless?
Shi Ziqin looked at him with a look of heartache and pleaded, "Your Highness, even if I have done a thousand wrongs, please let me go in peace for the sake of my having kept my virginity for you for so many years. I beg you."
After Shi Ziqin finished speaking, she knelt on the ground and kowtowed continuously. Seeing that Jiang Qing was indifferent, she continued, "Your Highness, you and I have been married for more than five years, but we have never been husband and wife. If this matter gets out, it will be bad for your reputation!"
The crown prince is the heir to the throne. If the crown prince is impotent, he will be deposed.
"Are you threatening me?" After hearing what Shi Ziqin said, Jiang Qing looked at her suddenly and asked.
"Ziqin dare not." Shi Ziqin said with her head down.
"I think it's not that you don't dare, but you won't cry until you reach the Yellow River." After saying this, he said to his subordinates, "Come here, drag him away."
As Jiang Qing finished his words, a group of guards escorted Shi Ziqin out.
Shi Ziqin walked and cried, begging, "Your Highness, please forgive me, Your Highness..."
"Your Highness, I am innocent and was murdered..."
Jiang Qing ignored Shi Ziqin's request for help and continued to send people to investigate her adulterer.
Cang Ling City.
At dawn, Shen Ruolan woke up the two children and told them, "Zheyi, Anhe, mother is going to help your father with his illness today. You two must be obedient and stay by Aunt Liu's side. Don't run around, understand?"
