Chapter 123 The people involved in the case are quite mixed!
How come such a cute child was given to her?
Isn’t Ji Yunqing watching from the side?
She must want to hug her baby now.
The princess was confused, but since the prince handed the child to her, she just took it.
What if the prince changes his mind and wants to let her raise the child?
As soon as the child was brought over, Concubine Liu, who was standing behind the princess and was about to watch the fun, changed her expression.
"Cong Cong? How could it be my Cong Cong? Is this a mistake?"
Shouldn’t it be Concubine Jian’s child?
She had just been thinking that, even though she failed to pin the death of Concubine Jian's child on Ji Yunqing, at least King Zhao had seen how Ji Yunqing behaved.
He rolls over at the slightest provocation.
That's a shrew!
Concubine Jian gave birth to a daughter, so the position of concubine might be given to her, so she has a great chance of winning.
At that time, the son will be honored by the mother, and her Congcong will be the child of a concubine, and the prince will definitely pay attention to him.
But why did the money-losing daughter of Concubine Jian become her Cong Cong?
She snatched the child from the princess' arms and took a closer look. It was indeed her Congcong.
The princess felt very unhappy when her arms were empty, but when she heard that the child was born to Concubine Mei, she lost interest again.
Forget it, she doesn’t want this child anyway, so she might as well wait for the next one.
At this moment, Concubine Liu was in a state of great emotional turmoil.
"Congcong, Congcong, how are you now, Congcong?"
"Don't scare your mother, Congcong, wake up"
King Zhao's face darkened as he watched her shaking the child vigorously.
Not to mention that the child is in a bad condition now, even if he is a good child, he can't withstand such torture!
"Liu, calm down."
As he said that, he took a step forward, snatched the child away, and casually handed it to Ji Yunqing who was standing beside him.
He gestured to her: "Take him to the palace doctor for a checkup."
Ji Yunqing suddenly had a child in her arms. Seeing the palace doctor being brought over by two strong young guards, she nodded quickly and said, "Okay."
Quickly hand the child to the government doctor.
Concubine Liu was even more devastated after losing her child, but she didn't dare to get angry at King Zhao, so she could only glare at Ji Yunqing fiercely.
Then he looked at Concubine Li viciously and questioned, "Didn't you say that the one who would die would be Concubine Jian's maid?"
Everyone immediately looked at Concubine Li.
There was disbelief in his eyes.
No way, no way, isn’t Concubine Li usually very gentle and kind?
Is it all fake?
There's something good to watch now.
Everyone present was more excited than each other.
Concubine Li remained calm despite the sudden attack. She said softly, "Concubine Liu, I know you are feeling very uncomfortable right now, but fortunately the child is fine. You should be careful about what you say."
Everyone: “…” It turns out that Concubine Liu was just impulsive and talking nonsense.
This is also very reasonable.
That’s right, Concubine Li is so kind in her daily life, how could she possibly harm others?
Seeing everyone's suspicious eyes, Concubine Liu's voice suddenly became high and sharp: "How can I be said to be talking nonsense? Do you dare to say that you didn't do this?"
"I didn't know anything about this matter from beginning to end!"
Concubine Li seemed to be slandered. "Concubine Liu, calm down. If you don't believe me, I can swear!"
"What's the point of swearing? The weather is so nice now, can there really be a thunderbolt?"
Everyone looked at the sky: "..."
That’s right!
The weather today is really nice.
At this time, the court doctor had already examined the child and said, "Your Highness, the child may be frightened and cry non-stop if he goes back, especially at night, and may even have a fever.
I can prescribe some tranquilizing soup for the nurse to take, and the young master's condition will gradually get better, but there is no need to rush this matter, as the young master is really too young."
After all, the child is not drinking the medicine by himself, so the effect of the medicine will definitely be slower than that of adults.
King Zhao nodded: "Nothing is wrong."
Looking at the concubine Liu who was almost going crazy, and the concubine Li who looked innocent, King Zhao said nothing more: "Take the person away."
"This matter must be investigated strictly!"
Everyone quickly returned to Qianshi Garden.
Ji Yunqing was thinking about Ruirui, and when he saw that King Zhao wanted to investigate the matter on the spot, he felt that the matter could not be resolved in a short time.
So I sneaked out to find Ruirui.
When I saw the wet nurse holding Ruirui and the little guy still sleeping soundly, I finally felt relieved.
After all, she is his own child. Although he often dislikes her, Ji Yunqing still cares about her very much.
Touching the little guy's face, Ji Yunqing felt relieved. Seeing that the swaddling clothes had turned bright red, he asked the wet nurse.
"Why did you change the swaddling clothes?"
Nanny Shan was also wondering.
"Master, when I was changing the little master's diaper, I put the swaddling clothes aside. Who knew that when I was ready to use it, I couldn't find it.
I thought maybe there were so many people around today and someone took it away, luckily I brought a spare one."
As she spoke, she gritted her teeth and cursed, "I don't know who is so short-sighted that he even stole the children's things."
You know, these are all good things. The fabrics are top-quality, the workmanship is exquisite, and the embroidery is beautiful. They can be worth a lot of money if they are sold.
After hearing this, Ji Yunqing just nodded: "It's okay, just change it, as long as the child is fine."
After seeing that the child was fine, Ji Yunqing went back.
The situation here has taken a new turn. The maid who dared to steal the child has been found.
The maid was an inconspicuous third-rank servant girl serving Concubine Zhao.
Several hundred taels of silver notes were found in the pillow core of her room, as well as two heavy gold hairpins, a pair of high-quality jade bracelets, and some miscellaneous beads, gems, agate bracelets, etc.
Concubine Zhao, who entered the palace at the same time as Ji Yunqing.
When these things were taken out, someone recognized that they were things once used by the king's concubine.
Wang's concubine was born into a wealthy family and was a royal merchant. She had a lot of jewelry and it would be easy for no one to notice if she gave some of it away.
Now things are at a stalemate.
The maidservant was from Concubine Zhao, but the things belonged to Concubine Wang. However, Concubine Liu kept saying that it was Concubine Li who killed her child.
Everyone also could not forget what Concubine Liu had let slip, that the stolen child should be Concubine Jian's daughter.
This is very intriguing.
Ji Yunqing touched his chin and said, to be honest, the people involved in this case are quite mixed!
She stood in the crowd and saw the little maid kneeling on the ground trembling with fear.
I felt sad that maybe someone in the mansion had something against this little maid, otherwise she wouldn't be so reckless.
At this moment, the little maid happened to meet Ji Yunfeng's eyes.
Ji Yunfeng suddenly had a bad feeling.
The little maid screamed, "Concubine Ji, it's all your fault, you unlucky person!
If it weren't for you, there wouldn't be so many problems in the mansion, and the children of several masters would have been able to stay. It's all because of your fate of bringing bad luck to husbands and children.
My mother died three days after you entered the mansion, my brother died after you slept with me, my father died after you established yourself, my blind grandmother died after you gave birth to a child, and now my sister is gone too.
As long as you die, my family might survive. Give me back my family's lives!"
