Chapter 682: Sinister Intentions
Soon, the state capital spread the news that the governor accidentally fell while walking, was frightened, and gave birth prematurely.
Tian was terrified. This plot was so familiar. This was not what she had arranged before...
How could it be? Didn't she order that person to stop the plan?
Hearing that Lu Songli was in trouble, Jiang grabbed her old man and went out anxiously.
She had forgotten to inform the two daughters-in-law, but she remembered it after arriving at the Qin Mansion, but she didn't ask anyone to go back and invite them. The main reason was that the younger daughter-in-law was pregnant, and now it was seven or eight months. As for the eldest daughter-in-law, hehe.
Liu Sulan came to Tian, the eldest sister-in-law, holding her belly after she learned the news.
"Sister-in-law, my sister-in-law fell and gave birth prematurely. My parents have gone there. Obviously, my mother was so anxious that she forgot about us. Let's go and see it together." It's not far.
Tian was restless at the moment. Hearing the invitation from her sister-in-law, she could only force herself to agree to go together.
Inside the Qin Mansion
After Lv Songli fell, she was carried by Qin Sheng to the delivery room that had been prepared long ago.
The four midwives who delivered the baby were also called over. These four midwives were carefully selected and had been kept in the other courtyard before. Recently, Lv Songli was about to give birth, so they were moved to the mansion.
Before entering the delivery room, the four midwives were required to do an examination in the ear room. Only after the examination could they enter the delivery room.
This sudden request caught the four midwives off guard.
They were required to bathe, change clothes, check their mouths, rinse their mouths, etc.
During this period, Qin's mother and several sisters-in-law of the Qin family arrived one after another.
Not long after, Lv Desheng and Jiang also arrived.
In the ear room, after a series of examinations were completed, several midwives looked at each other and thought, have they passed this time? Can they enter the delivery room?
Hongluo took the four people out, "Doctor Zhou, please take a look."
Zhou Yuanhua, who was waiting on the side, stepped forward. He knew that at least one of the four midwives must have a problem.
After Zhou Yuanhua checked, he pointed to one of them and said, "Her hair smells wrong."
The thin midwife's heart sank when she was pointed out. She said embarrassedly, "It's just the hair oil."
Time was tight, and they were not asked to wash their hair when they were ordered to take a bath just now.
Hongluo ordered, "Take off the headscarf."
The thin midwife could only resign herself to taking off the headscarf.
Zhou Yuanhua smelled it and said with certainty, "It's the smell of Curcuma!"
Lv Songli was inside and heard Zhou Yuanhua's words.
Curcuma is a common Chinese medicine for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. If used on pregnant women, it may cause heavy bleeding and miscarriage.
In addition, Lv Songli also knew that if Curcuma is used with frankincense, the effect will be doubled.
At this time, the oxytocin that Lu Songli drank also began to take effect. Her stomach ached slightly, and the contractions made her moan.
Fortunately, Zhou Yuanhua also mentioned this key point outside.
Hongluo knew that she had arranged the delivery room with people, and she had always had people watching and no one entered, so it was very clean. In other words, if the other party wanted to use Curcuma and frankincense together, then the frankincense must be on the two of them.
They had already bathed and changed clothes, their jewelry had been taken off, and even their teeth had been checked. Where could they hide anything?
"Take off the wooden hairpin on your head."
After the four midwives took off their wooden hairpins and checked them, they found that they were made of solid wood and had no place to hide anything.
At this time, a nanny came up and whispered to her.
Hong Luo nodded, "Okay, as you say."
"Come here, take the four people into the side room."
"Ladies, please."
The four midwives re-entered the side room, and two of Lu Songli's trusted maids entered.
"Everyone, I'm sorry."
"What are you doing? Governor, you are too insulting!"
Two shocked and angry voices came from the side room.
A trusted maid took something out of the fat midwife's secret place. After confirmation by Doctor Zhou, it was nothing else but a pill made of frankincense.
When Liu Sulan and Tian arrived, the courtyard of the young aunt was full of relatives, including people from the Qin family and their Lu family.
When Qin's mother saw Liu Sulan's big belly, she quickly asked someone to invite her to the guest room to avoid a collision.
After the examination, the two midwives who had no problems were sent to the delivery room.
Then, Qin Sheng, who had been accompanying Lu Songli, was driven out.
When Qin Sheng came out, his face was dark.
The two problematic midwives and the old woman who spilled oil in the garden were all escorted over.
Seeing this scene, Tian's legs went weak. What was going on?
After finding two problematic midwives and a old woman, the faces of the people present were all very bad.
His wife was giving birth inside, and Qin Sheng planned to have them escorted to another place for investigation.
Lu Desheng gritted his teeth and said, "No need to go elsewhere, just go to the yard outside for investigation!" I want to see who is behind this!
"Yes, just follow my father-in-law's instructions, and this matter must be investigated thoroughly!" Qin's mother was also very angry about these people who were playing tricks.
Hearing this, Qin Sheng did not refuse.
He walked around the three people who were escorted, and then kicked them in the knees one by one.
Being attacked, the three people screamed and fell to the ground one by one.
"Tell me, why did you want to murder the governor?"
"Tell me the truth, and your family still has a chance to survive. Otherwise, your whole family will have to accompany each other to the underworld."
From the moment they were controlled, someone had already set out to capture their families.
Then, Qin Sheng also pointed out the family members of several of them one by one, and finally said, "In addition, whoever confesses first, I will appropriately reduce the guilt. Think about it clearly."
The thin midwife was the first to lose her temper, "I say!"
"It was not someone else who instructed the old woman, but the grandmother of the Lu family." The thin midwife pointed directly at Tian.
"You are talking nonsense!" Tian screamed.
Everyone present looked at Tian, not knowing what to say.
Lu Zhiyuan, who had just received the news and rushed back from the workshop, heard this as soon as he came in. He staggered. After being married for many years, how could he not see that his wife was timid and bluffing? Why couldn't she teach him?
No one paid attention to Lu Zhiyuan's arrival.
Even Lu Desheng and Jiang didn't even give him a look. Lu Zhiyuan wiped his face and found a corner to stand by himself.
"What about you?" Qin Sheng continued to interrogate.
The fat midwife's answer was the same as the thin midwife's.
When asked about the cleaning lady, she got another answer, "I only know that the person who ordered me was from the Qin family."
As soon as this was said, the whole place was silent.
Mother Qin was startled and looked at her daughters-in-law.
The sisters-in-law of the Qin family looked at each other and shook their heads at their mother-in-law.
Qin Sheng and Lu Desheng, the father-in-law and son-in-law, looked at each other. What a sinister intention!
