Marrying into a rich family by mistake, it is difficult to be a mistress

Chapter 532: Retrial of the Case, the Emperor Lost

Xiao Yan'an woke up and found himself in Ji Chuhe's bedroom, on her bed. He suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart.

Holding the soft bedding tightly, I seemed to be able to smell the unique fragrance of Ji Chuhe.

In an instant, the pain in my body was relieved a lot.

Ji Chuhe walked in with medicine and saw that Xiao Yanan had woken up and was hugging the quilt tightly. He immediately quickened his pace.

"Prince, are you awake? Does it hurt?" Ji Chuhe asked softly.

"No, no, it doesn't hurt much anymore." Xiao Yan'an immediately let go of the quilt.

He was lying face down on the bed and wanted to turn over, but the moment he moved, the wound on his back was hurt. The pain made his eyes go dark and a thin layer of sweat suddenly appeared on his forehead.

"You're badly injured, you can't move. Just lie down like this and I'll feed you medicine."

Ji Chuhe had already prepared a small stool beside the bed and sat on it blowing the medicine in the bowl.

Xiao Yanan looked at her so closely that he could even see the fine hairs on her fair face. Xiao Yanan suddenly realized that she was not very old.

Although she was still a young girl, she managed an entire mansion and was in charge of so many complicated affairs.

"Why are you staring at me? Is there something dirty on my face?" Ji Chuhe couldn't help but ask.

"No, I just thought the lady was so pretty that I couldn't help but take a few more glances."

"Stop talking nonsense." Ji Chuhe scooped a spoonful of medicine and handed it to Xiao Yan'an's mouth.

Xiao Yanan drank it immediately.

Seeing him drinking so quickly, Ji Chuhe couldn't help but ask, "Is it hot?"

"It's not hot anymore." Xiao Yan'an immediately shook his head.

"But you have to do it slowly." Ji Chuhe fed him one spoonful at a time.

About an incense stick of time passed after taking the medicine before Ji Chuhe had the meal served.

It was inconvenient for Xiao Yanan to lie down, so Ji Chuhe had to feed him.

"Ma'am, I suddenly feel that I got a good beating."

"What nonsense!" Ji Chuhe replied indifferently.

Xiao Yanan just smiled foolishly.

Ji Chuhe thought that the medicine was taking effect and the pain was not so severe anymore.

"Ma'am, I'm sleeping in your bed, where are you sleeping?"

"I'll sleep in the outer room. I've got it all ready."

"Oh."

"Aunt Lin had a miscarriage, and Aunt Dong is about to give birth. I am worried about you living alone. It would be more convenient for me to leave you in my yard instead of running to your place to take care of you." Ji Chuhe said again.

"Thank you for your hard work, madam."

"Father." You'er walked in from outside.

"You'er is here, come here, come to your father." Xiao Yan'an waved to You'er.

You'er walked to the bedside and looked at her father with a worried look on her face, "Dad, does it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt." Xiao Yan'an raised his hand and touched You'er's head. "Father's injury is fine. With your mother taking care of him, he will be well in a few days."

"Yeah." You'er nodded vigorously.

"Madam, You'er is much better than I was when I was a child! If I was half as considerate as You'er when I was a child, I wouldn't have been beaten so much by my father!" Xiao Yan'an realized after he finished speaking that he had hurt himself.

"You'er, that's not true. Father is actually a very good person, but not as good as you." Xiao Yan'an tried hard to regain some dignity as a father.

Ji Chuhe couldn't help but laugh and held You'er in his arms, "Our You'er has never been beaten since she was a child, unlike you."

"Madam, can you please save some face for me in front of the child? You'er is still young now, and he may not understand. When You'er grows up, you can't say this, especially when I was beaten. You must not let him know."

"You've been beaten so many times, how can you still hide?" Ji Chuhe didn't give him any face.

Xiao Yan'an looked annoyed and tried to argue, "Actually, I didn't get hurt that much."

……

When Lin Siyou heard the news that Xiao Yanan was injured, she struggled to get out of bed to see Xiao Yanan.

Ping'er stopped her immediately.

"Aunt Lin, you just had a miscarriage. The court doctor said that you must stay in bed and rest now. There is also a risk of bleeding. The prince has his wife to take care of him. When will it be your turn to worry? What do you want to prove by going there now?" Ping'er asked directly.

With people like this, it's not okay to be subtle about what you say.

"Ping'er, I am also worried about the prince. I am naturally relieved that the prince is with my wife. Why should I prove anything?"

"Mrs. Lin, don't you think that the most important thing for you now is not to cause trouble for the prince, and to take good care of your body? If you have any problems with your body, how can you serve the prince in the future?"

This sentence hit the point that Lin Siyou cared about most.

She immediately became obedient and gave up the idea of ​​going to see Xiao Yanan.

"Ping'er, thank you for telling me what happened outside. It was because I cared too much about the prince. When I heard that he was holding the courtesan outside, I panicked."

"Auntie Lin, I still say the same thing. Even if the prince is really courting an otaku outside, it is Madam who should handle it. It has nothing to do with you, an aunt. You must remember your own identity. If you don't recognize your own identity, in the end, it will only harm you."

Lin Siyou suppressed her unhappiness and smiled at Ping'er, "Ping'er, you are right. I understand now."

Ping'er didn't care whether Lin Siyou understood or not, or whether she was just trying to get her to accept it.

She just felt so tired.

The previous Aunt Xu would not listen to anything.

No matter what you say to Aunt Lin now, she will always say, "Okay, I understand." But in the end, she still insists on doing what she wants at the critical moment.

……

Lu Hongru returned home after a busy day. As soon as he arrived at the gate, a woman with a baby girl rushed up to him.

"Lord Lu! The Second Young Master is innocent! He did not plot to murder the Crown Prince! Please investigate!"

Lu Hongru lifted the car curtain and looked at the woman in front of him.

"Who are you?"

"My Lord, I am the Second Young Master's concubine and have been living with him. He is innocent!"

"The evidence is irrefutable. The Second Young Master Xiao Jincheng has already confessed his guilt, and you are still here to speak up for him. Do you have any evidence?"

"I don't have any evidence, but, sir, don't you think there are big loopholes in this case? After the Second Young Master came to the imperial capital, he has been living under the roof of others. You can investigate this. The Second Young Master does not have any property in his name. How can he mobilize so many people in the imperial capital?"

"Does it cost money to hire a killer? Does it cost money to bribe so many people in the brothel to tamper with the pleasure boat? How does he rely on so many people to be willing to do his bidding?" Ming'er asked loudly.

It's not that Lu Hongru hasn't thought about this question, but all the evidence is in front of him, and Xiao Jincheng has pleaded guilty, so these are no longer important.

Now, someone brought it up again, and it has become the biggest doubt in this case.

"Besides these, do you have any other clues?"
