She married a dying prince and she won three babies.

Chapter 253: Room 3 is making preparations for the second

"Boss, shut up. You didn't see anything. Otherwise, you'll lose your life." Zhuiyun saw the boss's eyes and threatened him deliberately.

"Yes, yes, don't worry, brave man. I didn't see anything."

It was not until the early evening of the 11th hour that Shangguan Ru woke up again.

"Sister-in-law, I'm still alive, I'm still alive!" When she saw her relatives by the bed, she was so excited that tears filled her eyes.

"Mom." Xiao Yue'er had been staying by the bed, behaving very sensibly. Yu Yuanzheng tried to coax her to sleep several times, but she refused.

"Yuer." Shangguan Ru cried and smiled when she saw the child.

It's really wonderful.

"Okay, Yue'er, your mother is awake now, so don't worry. Sister Ru, you don't know, Yue'er won't go anywhere, won't eat, and will wait for you to wake up. This child is so sensible. I hope my children can be so sensible in the future."

Yu Yuanzheng felt sorry for the child, as he had experienced so much at such a young age.

"Thank you, sister-in-law. If you and brother hadn't come, I would have died long ago, and Yue'er would not have survived either."

"So you must cherish the days ahead and persevere no matter what difficulties you encounter. Nothing is more important than being alive."

"Ah."

"Sister Ru, big brother failed in his duty. The person who shot the arrow didn't catch the person alive.

When the eldest brother led people to chase after him, the man had already run a long way away, and his martial arts skills were amazing.

By the time we caught up with the man, we had already reached the top of the mountain. We had driven him to the edge of the cliff. As soon as we approached, he jumped off the cliff himself.

We had no choice but to look for him at the bottom of the cliff, thinking that he had someone to pick him up there, but it turned out that there was no one. He was alone and had fallen to his death.

But we brought the body back and wanted you to identify it. Do you recognize it?"

Shangguan Ziqi walked to the bedside and explained to Shangguan Ru.

He was analyzing all the time that it was impossible for his third uncle to get the news so quickly, so it must have been arranged in advance, and it was most likely someone close to him.

As soon as they got the news that he had taken the people away, they chased after them, intending to kill them on the way.

Without Shangguan Ru returning to the mansion alive, it would not be easy for them to convict the third wife.

It would take at least ten days to get from here to the capital, and there would be no point in transporting the body back, as it would surely rot.

This is to leave no evidence.

"Okay." Shangguan Ru cooperated very well.

I'm not afraid of death, so of course I'm not afraid of seeing a corpse.

Yu Yuanzheng asked Zhilan to take the child next door.

Zhuiyun carried the body in.

There were some cuts on the corpse's face and blood was oozing from the corners of its mouth.

"Brother, his name is Mo Lin. He was the companion left to me by my father, but the Lin family found an excuse to send him away a long time ago. It's been more than half a year." Shangguan Ru recognized the body at a glance.

Her heart was numb with pain, and she felt nothing when she saw the man who killed her.

It is so sad that the parents who raised her for more than ten years want to kill her, but it is not sad at all when it is too sad.

"Mo Lin? This name sounds familiar." Yu Yuanzheng seemed to have heard it somewhere.

"He's the son of Madam Zheng who died in my mother's courtyard." He asked on the day his uncle returned home. This was the name his uncle mentioned at that time.

"Oh, I remember now. Madam Zheng's daughter is missing, so her son followed her to her post and was given to Sister Ru as a companion.

It's clear now.

In other words, Nanny Zheng was arranged by the third house to work in the main courtyard to serve the third uncle.

Give my mother saffron to prevent her from getting pregnant forever.

Later, they killed you, and the position of the crown prince was definitely passed on to the third wife.

As a condition, the third room had to protect Zheng Ma's two children.

I guess this Morin is no longer a slave. At his age, he must be married and have children, and his children should be in their twenties.

If you don't believe me, you can send someone to Luohe City and they will definitely not be able to find his family."

Yu Yuanzheng suddenly understood all the twists and turns.

"You're right." Shangguan Ziqi was also numb, and he didn't seem sad when talking about these things.

"I just can't understand why they chose to attack you after you became an adult instead of attacking you earlier?" Yu Yuanzheng couldn't understand this again.

“At that time, my grandfather was still alive, my father was the crown prince, and I was just the eldest son.

If something happens to my father, maybe my grandfather will designate my third uncle as the crown prince.

Or maybe they don’t have such a perfect plan. I can’t figure it out in detail.”

Shangguan Ziqi couldn't answer this question either.

"Oh." Yu Yuanzheng understood.

In other words, the third room is making preparations for both scenarios.

If they find a way to harm the prince, then the third master will directly take over the position of the crown prince.

The second master has no chance at all. The old prince will not even consider that useless person.

But the prince has been fine for so many years, which means that their plans have failed, or there was no chance at all.

It was not realized until the old prince died, and then he targeted Shangguan Ziqi.

"You are still too young." Yu Yuanzheng sighed softly.

"Yes, I'm still far behind Father. It's just that Father only cares about the big things outside. He doesn't understand the tricks in the inner chambers, nor does he think about them. I'm not either."

That's why Madam Zheng was given such a great opportunity.

When my mother was at her parents' home, she was the only daughter of the Wei family and had never suffered from the vicious tactics of the harem, so she always felt that the palace was very harmonious.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. What should we do next?" Yu Yuanzheng asked.

"Sister Ru is not in good health now, so please stay here for a while. When we reach the next provincial capital, we will ask the garrison to send someone to escort you." Shangguan Ziqi estimated that the road might not be safe.

"Can you invite them? That's an army. How can you, a young master of a royal palace, invite them?" Yu Yuanzheng was puzzled.

Previously in Luojiang City, he asked the garrison to capture the second prince of Southern Shu, which was a meritorious service, but escorting them back to the capital was a private matter.

"The next city is called Jijiang City. The garrison commander has a good relationship with me. We've even been on the battlefield together before, so I'll give him some respect. Don't underestimate the status of Prince Rong's Mansion in the Wei Dynasty. He might be very happy to be able to do something for the palace."

"Aren't you afraid that the Emperor will find out and accuse the palace of abusing its power?"

"No, I need at most a hundred people. That's too few to attract the Emperor's attention."

"Okay." Only then did Yu Yuanzheng truly realize the status of Prince Rong's Mansion in the Wei Dynasty.

It is actually possible to use local garrisons as bodyguards.

"Of course, I will explain this matter to the Emperor."

That night, Shangguan Ru developed a high fever.

Yu Yuanzheng took care of him personally and the fever only subsided at dawn.

Shangguan Ru's wound was so painful that she couldn't sleep, so the two of them stayed together all night. After breakfast, they both fell into a deep sleep.

Instead of leaving for the time being, Shangguan Ziqi actually sent two guards to Luohe City to see if Mo Lin's family was still there.

A few days later, the guards came back to report, and sure enough, no one was there. No one knew where they had gone.

In other words, it is possible that Mo Lin's family had already left Luohe City, and he was the only one left to supervise the Lin family in killing Shangguan Ru.

If you don't kill him, do it yourself.

Ten days later, Shangguan Ru's injuries had almost healed, and she was ready to return.

But because of the fracture, she could not withstand too much bumps, so Yu Yuanzheng bought three quilts to cushion her.

It's cold now, so it's a good time to keep warm.

However, they had just left the town and had not walked fifty miles when they encountered something unpleasant.
