Chapter 233 Late care is more contemptible than grass
Xie Xun was angry: "Are you asking for forgiveness? You are clearly forcing me to do this!"
"If you want to impose a crime, there is no need to hesitate. Please grant your permission, Your Majesty."
Seeing Qin Rushuang like this, Qingzhi quickly came over and knelt down with her, kowtowing to Xie Xun.
"Your Majesty, just promise the princess! The princess knows she is wrong! The princess was diagnosed with signs of premature labor just yesterday, what should she do if she continues to kneel down?"
This fuss made Xie Xun unable to get off the stage at all!
Xie Xun knew Qin Rushuang's temper, and this woman would not give up until she achieved her goal.
He had a headache and was vaguely angry, but in the end he turned his gaze to Qin Rushuang's belly, hesitated again and again, and said reluctantly: "Okay, I will arrange for you to go to the Royal Courtyard..."
Before Xie Xun finished speaking, Qin Rushuang immediately interrupted him, "I am a guilty person, so going to the Royal Courtyard is not a punishment, but a pleasure."
Xie Xun was furious, "Then what do you want? Do you want my eldest son to be born anywhere?"
"Back to the prince, when I married into the prince's palace, there was a small courtyard in the eastern suburbs as part of my dowry. The courtyard is quiet and there are no outsiders. Please allow me to give birth there. If the prince refuses, then I will kneel..."
"Are you asking what I mean? You have clearly made your own decision long ago!"
Qin Rushuang looked calm and looked up at Xie Xun: "Does the prince agree or not?"
Xie Xun has never felt such a weird feeling.
It was clear that he was standing and Qin Rushuang was kneeling. He was looking down at Qin Rushuang, but for some reason, what Qin Rushuang's calm eyes revealed made him feel that he was looking down on her.
This look made him irritated, made him angry, and made him very uneasy, as if something had escaped his control, and as if something had been ripped out of Qin Rushuang's heart.
He didn't know what it was, but it must be something very important to him.
But Qin Rushuang threatened him with the fetus in her belly!
He had never felt so agitated!
In the end, reason prevailed, and he knew that if he knelt down again, Qin Rushuang and the child in her belly would be unable to hold on, so he could only agree to her request.
"Okay. I promise you. But you need to bring the guards with you."
Qin Rushuang stood up with the help of Qingzhi.
When she stood up, her legs even trembled a little because she had been kneeling for too long, and she could only try to lean most of her weight on Qingzhi.
Hearing this, she replied without thinking: "I know. Your Majesty's house arrest on me will not be lifted just because I leave the house. I have nothing to say even if your Majesty sends many guards to watch me."
Xie Xun opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
He wanted to say that these guards were not to watch over her or imprison her, but to ensure the safety of her and her children.
But now Qin Rushuang seems to no longer want to hear another word from him...
Qin Rushuang finally stood firm and returned to the main courtyard with Qingzhi's support.
The first thing she did when she returned to the main courtyard was that Qin Rushuang took out two letters and handed them to Qingzhi.
"Don't rush to pack your luggage. First, send a trustworthy person to deliver these two letters to the mother in the General's Mansion and the brother in the Shen Mansion."
Upon hearing this, Qingzhi left immediately.
Qin Rushuang's energy and energy, which she had held on all morning, finally dissipated. She leaned back on the chair, feeling extremely exhausted both physically and mentally.
…
Side courtyard.
Qin Fanghao took the tonic brought by the little maid and drank it without blinking.
The little maid was still holding the candied fruit in her hand. When she saw this situation, she said, "Why don't you wait for the slave to bring the candied fruit? This medicine is so bitter!"
At this moment, Qin Fanghao's eyes showed no sadness at losing his beloved son, but a look of leisurely contentment.
"Bitter? Where is the bitterness? I think this medicine is the sweetest bowl of medicine I have ever drunk!"
The little maid didn't know what to say, so she simply kept silent.
Qin Fanghao put down the bowl and said to the little maid, "Come and help me dress. I want to see the prince."
The little maid hesitated and said, "But the doctor has told you that you have just had a miscarriage and you need to stay in bed for at least a month like ordinary women do after giving birth, so that your body will not suffer any loss."
Qin Fanghao sneered: "I know. What about confinement? But other people do confinement to make it easier to conceive the next child. Now that I have lost the qualification to be a mother, what kind of confinement should I do?
The people who brought me to this point must be settled."
As soon as Qin Fang finished his good words, a servant's report suddenly came from outside.
The person who came was none other than the little maid named Qing Hong who had helped her most in what happened last night.
She did a good job last night, and Qin Fanghao also had a good look towards her: "Why are you running so fast? If you have anything to say, please tell me slowly."
"Is the concubine bad? The princess knelt down in the courtyard early this morning and held a thorn tree to plead guilty. She asked the prince to send her to a side courtyard outside the city to give birth. The prince has already agreed!"
Qin Fang was so surprised, "She admitted to harming the fetus in my belly?"
Qinghong shook her head: "No! She mentioned three charges, both minor and minor. In short, they had nothing to do with the murder of the emperor's heir! But she threatened the prince and said that if the prince did not agree, she would not be able to kneel down! But yesterday the doctor
She was also diagnosed with signs of premature labor. Perhaps the prince was worried about the child and had already agreed!"
"When I came here, I saw Qingzhi packing her bags! Concubine!"
Crash--
Qin Fang angrily swept the medicine bowl on the table to the ground. The porcelain bowl shattered on the ground. The servants around him knelt down quickly, not daring to say a word.
"Okay! Okay! Good on you, Qin Rushuang! I'll let you take retreat instead of advance and escape from Prince Huai's Mansion!"
Although Qinghong was scared, she still raised her head and asked, "Concubine, what should we do now?"
Qin Fang sneered, "What should I do? The prince has already agreed, what else can I do? I think the prince has lingering feelings for Qin Rushuang..."
"But..." Qin Fanghao's eyes were fierce, "Since she chose to leave the house to give birth, she also wanted to guard against me. Whether she can guard against it or not, that's another story!"
…
In the main courtyard.
Qingzhi has packed all her luggage.
Qin Rushuang ordered Qingzhi to burn all the clothes that had been touched by servants before. What was left in the luggage were Qin Rushuang's old clothes that Qingzhi had packed away from the warehouse.
The more Qingzhi looked at it, the more she felt sad. When had the princess ever been so wronged?
"Okay, don't be sad. Once you leave Prince Huai's Mansion, you will be out of sight and out of mind."
Qingzhi put away the worry on her face, nodded and replied, "Yes, the slave is with the princess! Wherever the princess goes, the slave will protect the princess!"
Qin Rushuang smiled faintly and told Qingzhi, "I'm tired and don't want to go to the study to see the prince. You go and tell the prince that we have packed up and will leave tonight."
Although Qingzhi was worried about traveling at night, she, like Qin Rushuang, couldn't stay in Prince Huai's Mansion for a moment, so she nodded, "I'll go right now."
In the study, Xie Xun had been reading a book of policy papers for a long time, but he had not opened a page.
When Qingzhi came, she saw Xie Xun in a daze.
She bowed to Xie Xun in a polite manner.
"Your Majesty, the Princess has packed her bags and is leaving tonight. I don't know how many guards the Prince will order to follow her. I would like to ask the Prince to make an idea and get them to the main courtyard as soon as possible."
Xie Xun frowned, and the book under his hand had already been pinched into a wrinkle.
Is Qin Rushuang so impatient to leave?
With this thought in mind, he also said it, "Tell your princess to pack up before leaving. There's no need to be in such a hurry."
Qingzhi has now seen through it and is no longer afraid of Xie Xun.
So he said with a cold face: "Didn't the prince and the concubine force the princess to leave? Now they are concerned about our princess."
The old housekeeper happened to be bringing something into the study at this time. Hearing Qingzhi's rebellious words, he knelt down with a plop.
"You are so impudent, why are you talking to the prince?!"
Qingzhi was still choking on his neck, and glanced at the old housekeeper. Did he not dare to say the next words directly to Xie Xun, or turned a corner and said to the old housekeeper: "Haven't you heard a sentence?
Delayed concern is worthless than grass."
After saying that, he left without looking back.
After notifying Xie Xun, Qingzhi returned to the main courtyard, where Qin Rushuang was already waiting at the door.
"Let's go to the main courtyard."
In the main courtyard, the twenty accompanying guards were ready.
The carriage stopped at the main entrance of Prince Huai's Mansion.
Qin Rushuang stepped across the vermilion threshold with the support of green branches.
Before getting on the carriage, she turned back and took a deep look at the tall courtyard.
When she married into the General's Mansion out of honor, and stepped into Prince Huai's Mansion...
Full of longing and full of love.
Now when I leave, I feel so lonely.
Qin Rushuang withdrew her gaze and whispered to Qingzhi, "It's time to go. Let's go."
