Chapter 559: schemed!
Translator: Lord bluefire
At this moment, Jing Zhen and Shen Ruojing were both accompanying Shen Qianhui for a meal.
Looking at the dishes on the table, Shen Qianhui tried to suppress her nausea and took a few bites. Then, her chopsticks reached for the plate of mushrooms.
But just as her chopsticks were about to touch the mushrooms, Shen Ruojing suddenly reached out and stopped her.
Shen Qianhui looked at Shen Ruojing with a puzzled expression.
Seeing her daughter staring at her, Shen Qianhui pursed her lips and sighed. “Is it time?’
Shen Ruojing nodded.
Shen Qianhui’s hand touched her belly. “I didn’t expect the fate between me and this child to be so short.’
Just before they came to Country A, Shen Ruojing had taken Shen Qianhui’s pulse and found that this pregnancy was unusual.
After all, she was already 48 years old, and it was a miracle to be pregnant at nearly 50. As a result, this fetus was not developing well, and there had always been signs of a threatened miscarriage. When Jing Zhen found out, he asked Shen Ruojing to use medicine to keep the child, saying that it would be useful after returning to the palace.
Shen Qianhui had known about this all along.
Shen Ruojing had tried to save the little one, but after examination, it was found that the child’s data was extremely poor. Two days ago, its development had stopped, and it had become a stillborn.
However, since she had been mentally prepared, Shen Qianhui didn’t feel too sad when the moment finally came.
Jing Zhen held her hand. “My wife, I’m already content that you were able to give birth to a child for me in this lifetime. Besides, Jingjing has three talented children, so the king’s position will have a successor in the future. I just feel sad for you… that stubborn old witch won’t make up her mind to punish Yan Rushuang unless she sees her own grandson gone with her own eyes.”
Queen Dowager Yan was from the Yan family, and Yan Rushuang was the next queen chosen by the Yan family for Jing Zhen.
From this, it could be said that Queen Dowager Yan was Yan Rushuang’s biggest supporter!
After all, Shen Qianhui was from China, and it was already enough for her to become a princess consort. The people of Country A couldn’t accept her as their queen.
So Jing Zhen’s original plan was that in Country A, there would only be one queen, Shen Qianhui!
He couldn’t change the thoughts of all the people, but since he returned to inherit the position of king, he had to take responsibility for all the citizens of Country A.
Shen Qianhui nodded.
She looked at Shen Ruojing and said, “Let’s begin.”
Shen Ruojing took out a pill and gave it to her. “Once you take this, all the medicine I gave you to keep the fetus will be useless. I estimate that you will have a miscarriage in about an hour. ‘
Jing Zhen then helped Shen Qianhui to sit down by the bed.
An hour later, Shen Qianhui felt waves of pain in her lower abdomen. After just five minutes of pain, she felt a warm sensation below and blood started to gush out. The pain disappeared immediately…
Jing Zhen looked at Shen Ruojing again.
Shen Ruojing smiled, took a bag of blood from her pocket, and poured it directly onto Shen Qianhui’s pants and the bed.
With that, the entire palace was filled with the smell of blood.
After that, Shen Ruojing winked at Shen Qianhui and suddenly shouted, “Mom, mom, what’s wrong with you?”
Watching his daughter’s cold and calm face, Jing Zhen couldn’t help but twitch the corner of his mouth. “Your acting is really bad.”
Shen Ruojing, who was criticized. “??”
Just as she was about to retort, she saw Jing Zhen ‘s face change dramatically , and he became extremely flustered, shouting in fear, ‘Wife, wife, what’s wrong with you? Hurry, call a doctor!”
Jing Zhen stumbled and rushed out, shouting at the maids outside!
Ever since the King returned to the country, he had always been elegant and dignified. When had the people outside ever seen the King looking like this?
Everyone panicked, and someone immediately went to call for help and inform the Queen Dowager.
The Queen Dowager arrived quickly and saw her son grieving with his head hanging low. He looked angrily at the Queen Dowager. “I shouldn’t have come back! I shouldn’t have come back! If I had known this would happen, why would I come back with you?”
The Queen Dowager was stunned.
She walked past Jing Zhen to Shen Qianhui’s bedside and was shocked by the large amount of blood in front of her. She stepped back and shouted, “What happened?!”
The doctor said, “Your Highness, Princess Consort Shen had a miscarriage..
the child is gone. ‘
The child… is gone!
The Queen Dowager stumbled and was supported by the butler beside her.
Jing Zhen rushed to her. “Mother, I told you before! The situation in the palace is too fake and the atmosphere is too sinister! You forced me to come back and inherit the throne, and now my child is gone, my son is gone! Are you satisfied
His face was full of anger. Seeing this, Shen Ruojing couldn’t help but twitch the corner of her mouth.
His father’s acting was really impressive. It was a pity that he had to leave the entertainment industry to inherit the throne!
The Queen Dowager stared in disbelief. “The child was fine, so how could it be gone?”
As soon as she finished speaking, a scolding voice came from Yu Jing beside her. “Who are you? Why did you secretly throw away this plate of mushrooms on the table?”
They turned their heads and saw a cleaning maid standing beside the Queen Dowager and secretly tidying up the table.
Shen Ruojing immediately rushed over, grabbed the maid’s wrist, picked up the mushrooms, and sniffed. Her face suddenly changed. “There’s something wrong with these mushrooms! They contain abortion-inducing drugs!”
The Queen Dowager immediately glared at the cleaning maid. “Tell me, who sent you?”
The maid immediately fell to her knees in terror. “Your Highness, please spare me, it was Princess Consort Ji!”
Things developed too quickly.
Soon, Princess Consort Ji was investigated and found guilty.
There were surveillance cameras all over the palace, so it was not difficult to find out who was responsible.
At this moment, Princess Consort Yan heard the news and hurried over.
On her way there, her face was full of smiles. Her butler asked, “Your Highness, do you think Princess Consort Ji might betray you?’
Princess Consort Yan sneered. “She wouldn’t dare! If she dares to say it was me who ordered her, I’ll make sure she doesn’t have a good outcome either!”
When they arrived at the King’s palace, they saw Princess Consort Ji being escorted and kneeling on the ground. Her eyes were red and swollen, admitting her guilt.
Princess Consort Yan gave her butler a look, confirming her earlier judgment. However, the next moment, she heard Shen Ruojing ask. “Princess Consort Ji, as far as I know, you are just a concubine-born daughter of the Ji family. I wonder where you got the abortion-inducing drugs?’
Country A was a country with a low status for women. Women were considered mere tools for reproduction here, and abortion was illegal.
Therefore, regular clinics and hospitals in the country did not provide abortion services, and even abortion drugs could only be purchased on the black market.
Hearing this, Princess Consort Ji was slightly taken aback.
She subconsciously looked at Princess Consort Yan, her face full of confusion.
Princess Consort Yan’s fingers tightened, and her heart suddenly became flustered.
What an idiot, why was she looking at her now?!
Princess Consort Yan then saw the Queen Dowager also looking at her with
SUSPICIOUS eyes….
