Chapter 134 Poor Second Prince

This time when she came to the Prime Minister's Mansion, in order to prevent the Fourth Prince and Su Xianxin from framing her, she had already bribed the two maids guarding the door. Even if the "threat" was useless this time, she still had a backup plan to prove that her wife did not push her.

This matter will at best end in nothing.

However, judging from Su Xianxin's reaction, this "backup plan" might not be useful.

His guess was confirmed. The child in Su Xianxin's belly was not the Fourth Prince's. He couldn't help but feel a little sympathetic for the Fourth Prince. There was really a lot of green on his head!

Moreover, this Tan Ling was really bold and actually sneaked into Chencang.

And the heroine Su Xianxin also betrayed the Fourth Prince.

Does that prove that the true love between the hero and heroine was destroyed by my arrival, and this trip to the Prime Minister's Mansion was not in vain?

Su Xianxin's face turned pale, and the fear in her heart began to spread to her internal organs. She looked at Lu Zhanxing cautiously and could only say in a trembling voice: "Don't blame sister, I fell down by myself..."

The Fourth Prince frowned. What did she mean?

Since I have to act, I will just go on with it. I can at least make Lu Zhanxing suffer a little. But this Su Xianxin just swore that it was Su Xianye who pushed her, and now she is turning against her?

"Xin'er, was it your sister who pushed you? If so, this prince will definitely seek justice for you. Don't be afraid, just tell the truth."

The Fourth Prince stared at Su Xianxin coldly, wanting to make her convict Su Xianye of the crime of murdering the royal heir.

Su Xianxin's face was pale and her whole body trembled uncontrollably. Noticing Lu Zhanxing's sarcastic eyes, she became even more panicked. She was in Lu Zhanxing's hands. If the confusion of the royal bloodline was exposed, she would be guilty of deceiving the emperor. She... she was afraid...

So she could only shake her head in fear, unable to say a word.

Prime Minister Su watched all this calmly, and did not miss the fear in his little daughter's eyes when she looked at Lu Zhanxing. He couldn't help but reveal a bit of surprise. He always felt that Lu Zhanxing was not as simple a playboy as he seemed, especially after the autumn hunting trip, he felt that Lu Zhanxing was hiding his true abilities.

Now that even his little daughter was afraid of him, it further confirmed his suspicions. His heart, which had already been leaning towards his eldest daughter, suddenly leaned even more towards her.

"Alright, Fourth Prince, Xin'er is pregnant, so don't stimulate her anymore. For the sake of the Fourth Prince's wife's unborn baby, Fourth Prince should take Xin'er back to the Prince's Mansion as soon as possible! She should rest well in the future."

Su Xianxin really wanted to return to the Prince's Mansion as soon as possible. She wanted to tell Tan Ling about this immediately and asked him to think of a solution.

The Fourth Prince knew that today's matter could not be done, so he could only snort coldly and let the matter go. Everyone sent the Fourth Prince's wife to the carriage. The Fourth Prince and Prime Minister Su said goodbye, and he did not have a good face towards Lu Zhanxing at all.

Lu Zhanxing smiled and reminded him nonchalantly: "Your Highness the Fourth Prince had better keep a close eye on the Fourth Prince's Consort. There might be unexpected surprises."

This is a good opportunity to get rid of that sinister villain Tan Ling.

The Fourth Prince frowned, then snorted coldly and walked away angrily.

Even so, the Fourth Prince still had people secretly keep an eye on Su Xianxin. Today's events were too weird, and he wanted to see what Su Xianxin was hiding from him.

The Fourth Prince found an excuse to go out, and Su Xianxin asked Yunxiang to inform Tan Ling of the news.

"Mr. Tan, the Fourth Prince's wife asked me to tell you that the matter of the fetus in her belly has been exposed. I want you to think of a solution..."

"What? How could you be so careless..."

Tan Ling's expression suddenly changed. Just as he was about to say something, he saw the Fourth Prince walk in with a gloomy face: "What happened to the baby in the Fourth Prince's wife's belly?"

There was a dark flame flashing in the fourth prince's eyes, which made people feel chilled at a glance.

He thought he trusted Tan Ling very much, but he didn't expect that the Fourth Prince's wife had an affair with Tan Ling. The two of them deceived him together and confused the royal bloodline. If this was true, he would make these two people pay the price.

No wonder Lu Zhanxing looked at her with such sympathy and pity, it turned out that she had known it for a long time.

When the two saw the Fourth Prince appear, their faces turned pale instantly and they knelt on the ground.

Tan Ling was so ruthless that he had to give up his previous plan: "Your Highness, it's all my fault. I couldn't help myself and Yunxiang, so I had a child. The Fourth Prince's wife sent Yunxiang to ask me when I married Yunxiang."

"I know Your Highness has been upset recently, so I don't want to bother you with such a small matter. I wanted to wait two months before telling Your Highness, but I didn't expect Your Highness to find out anyway..."

Tan Ling looked ashamed, but secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Fortunately, the guards around the Fourth Prince were his spies. When the Fourth Prince sent people to monitor the Fourth Prince's wife, he knew something was wrong and asked the secret guard to notify Yunxiang to act according to the circumstances.

Only then could I act out this scene with Yunxiang in time, otherwise I would have really capsized in the ditch.

The guards of the Fourth Prince were all recruited by himself. Although they were for protection, they were also for surveillance. This time, they really saved his life.

The anger in the fourth prince's eyes had not subsided, and his face was gloomy: "Yunxiang is pregnant?"

Yunxiang could only kowtow in fear and explain: "Yes, Your Highness, the Fourth Prince's wife said that I am pregnant and can no longer hide it. She asked me to come to Mr. Tan to discuss it. It would be best if we get married as soon as possible.

The Fourth Prince’s wife loves me and doesn’t want me to give birth to a child without a name or status. She wants Mr. Tan to marry me, so she came to discuss it with Mr. Tan. Please forgive me, Your Highness. I couldn’t help myself, but I didn’t expect to have a child so soon…”

Yunxiang felt sorry that her child could not be raised as a prince, but it didn't matter. The child in the Fourth Prince's wife's belly was not his Highness's, so the Fourth Prince's wife still had to listen to her.

When the Fourth Prince heard that he had misunderstood, his anger disappeared immediately, but he still said dissatisfiedly: "Yu Zhong, this is your fault. Yunxiang is the Fourth Prince's wife after all, how could you be so careless.

Never mind. I already know about this matter. Yunxiang will serve you. As for the matter of marrying her, forget it. Just give her the status of a concubine. I will tell the Fourth Prince's wife about this matter."

"Thank you, Your Highness!" The two of them expressed their gratitude.

The Fourth Prince felt that Tan Ling would never betray him, and that Su Xianxin did have her first period when they had their wedding night, and the timing of her pregnancy also matched. Tan Ling had also been under his nose all this time, so he secretly blamed himself for believing the words of that villain Lu Zhanxing who was trying to sow discord between them.

I almost misunderstood Tan Ling, and I would have lost a think tank.

Tan Ling asked Yunxiang to find the Fourth Prince's wife.

Yunxiang left happily, and Tan Ling said ashamedly: "It's all my fault. I wanted Yunxiang to serve the Fourth Prince's wife for a few more days, but I didn't expect it to be like this..."

"If you fancy a maid in the future, just tell me directly, so as to avoid such a big misunderstanding like this time."

“Yes, yes, it’s my fault that I didn’t communicate with you in time. If you didn’t know, you might think that I had bad intentions towards the Fourth Prince’s wife. How unfair!

I am loyal to His Highness, and I have only met the Fourth Prince's wife a few times. If such a rumor were to spread, I would not be able to clear myself even if I jumped into the river."

Seeing that Tan Ling was so loyal to him, the Fourth Prince's last doubts were dispelled. He thought that maybe Tan Ling had gone to see Yunxiang many times, so he was seen and misunderstood.

However, how could Lu Zhanxing know everything about his own Prince's Mansion? His face darkened: "There are other people's thorns in the Prince's Mansion. You should find a way to clean them up."

"Yes." Tan Ling saw that he had avoided the crisis. Although he lost the guarantee of having a boy, it didn't matter. He could just let Su Xianxin have another one in the future.

After seeing the Fourth Prince off, Yunxiang came again and told him that it was Lu Zhanxing who informed the Fourth Prince of the news.

Tan Ling frowned. How could Lu Zhanxing know that the child in Su Xianxin's belly was his?

He shook his head. The matter was so secretive that Lu Zhanxing had no way of knowing. The Fourth Prince's vitality was damaged, but he could make Su Xianxin pregnant. Maybe it was Lu Zhanxing's guess, but he had no evidence.

And their going to the Prime Minister's Mansion might be a test by Lu Zhanxing. He couldn't help but frown secretly. Su Xianxin was so impatient. If he didn't have a backup plan, he might have been exposed.

Taking advantage of this opportunity to remove some troubles, I can also arrange more people to be around Su Xianxin.
