As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Shaoheng's face turned as pale as an eggplant beaten by frost, and all the expressions condensed on his face instantly.

He was equally exhausted today.

The Chu family is gone, the plan failed, and the child is gone.

If Yan Yushu is offended again and brought before the emperor, I am afraid that the Pingyang Marquis Mansion will also be implicated.

Chen Shaoheng's face was pale and stiff, but he had to suppress the anger in his heart and walked to the edge of the bed to sit down.

He softened his expression and spoke in a warm voice: "I don't blame you, it's just that too many things happened today, and the Hou Mansion can hardly support it. My mother is in an extremely bad mood, and she almost... almost..."

Yan Yushu said nothing, her face was cold.

"Princess." Chen Shaoheng held her hand, his tone full of helplessness and distress, "I know you are sad to lose your child, how can I feel better? This is our child, and I feel the same as you, even more painful than you. But I am a man, and the burden of the entire family is on me. I can’t stay immersed in sadness, so...I said something wrong just now, and I hope you can forgive me. "

Yan Yushu raised her eyes and looked at him: "I always thought you were a responsible man, but when the four ministers Du, Wei, Shen and Sheng came to the door, you hid in the house and refused to go out. You didn't even have the courage to face risks. No, Chen Shaoheng, how can you make me believe in you?"

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Chen Shaoheng's face: "I...I was just panicked for a moment and didn't know what to do..."

"Don't forget, you asked me to write the invitation yesterday. You asked me to invite Donghuang to the house. All the strategies were your idea. Now the facts have proved that not only do you not have the courage to bear the consequences, you even The strategies she came up with are extremely clumsy." Yan Yushu seemed to be venting her long-standing dissatisfaction, saying in a very derogatory manner, "Tell me now, what are your abilities to keep the Pingyang Marquis Mansion?"

Chen Shaoheng's face turned blue and white, and he became angry with embarrassment, but was speechless.

Yan Ming was demoted, and the entire Chu family was executed.

Pingyang Hou Mansion suddenly lost two backers.

Today's incident apparently only offended four ministers, but other families in the capital saw this and would definitely alienate the Pingyang Marquis Mansion in the future.

He really didn't know how to turn the tide and save the Pingyang Marquis Mansion... No, maybe there was a way to do it.

"Princess." Chen Shaoheng looked at Yan Yushu, with some hope in his eyes, "Didn't you and the eldest princess have a close sisterly relationship before? You might as well blame me for this matter today, and then you can go to the eldest princess's mansion to make amends for me. "

"I'm going to apologize for you?" Yan Yushu was shocked, her eyes filled with disbelief, "Chen Shaoheng, what are you thinking about?"

"It's not really an apology, it's just an excuse." Chen Shaoheng explained quickly, "You can complain to the eldest princess, just say that your life in the Hou Mansion is not good. It depends on your mother-in-law's face, and your husband is not treating you well. This Do you understand it’s a bitter plot?”

Yan Yushu pursed her lips and remained silent, saying nothing.

"You just had a miscarriage. Even considering the little affection you had in the past, the eldest princess would not have the heart to do anything to you." Chen Shaoheng lowered his eyes and his tone gradually became harsh, "You have nowhere to go, so she will naturally stay. If you stay in the princess's mansion, you will have the opportunity to get close to her."

"Any chance of getting close to her?" Yan Yushu's heart skipped a beat and she looked at him in disbelief, "What do you want me to do?"

She thought that his purpose was just to make amends with Yan Donghuang, and then obtain Yan Donghuang's forgiveness, so that the Marquis Mansion would be safe.

But this is obviously not the case.

Chen Shaoheng lowered his head, took out an extremely small and delicate porcelain bottle from his sleeve, and put it into her hand: "This medicine is colorless and odorless, and no one can notice it."

Yan Yushu was horrified: "You want me to poison her?"

Chen Shaoning shook his head quickly: "This is not poison, it's just... it's just a medicine that can make a person's temperament gentle and the body gradually weaken... She is now established as the crown prince relying on her military power. Once she loses her martial arts skills, she can no longer lead the army. If she can't lead the army, she won't be able to be the crown prince. Yushu, King Jing still has a chance..."

"No, no." Yan Yushu's face changed slightly and she quickly pushed the bottle back to him, "I can't do that."

"Yushu, we have already broken up with Yan Donghuang." Chen Shaoheng looked at her and his voice became colder, "Do you think she will really forget about your plot against her? When she becomes emperor in the future, she will They will definitely get rid of us, do we have to sit back and wait for death?”

Yan Yushu was panicked and didn't know what to do.

Although she secretly hoped that Yan Ming would ascend the throne, she never wanted to let Dong Huang die.

The sisters have been dependent on each other since they were young, and they have feelings for each other for a while. She just doesn't agree with a woman being the emperor. She doesn't want Yan Donghuang to die.

"Yushu." Chen Shaoheng held her hand tightly and coaxed in a soft voice, "We are husband and wife, and we will have children of our own in the future. We and the children are one family. Once Yan Donghuang ascends the throne in the future, the children may follow We were executed together, just like the Chu family... Yushu, almost all the Chu family died, Yan Donghuang didn't spare any of them..."

Yan Yushu's face turned pale and she was in a panic. She didn't know what to do: "You...let me think about it."

Seeing her relaxed attitude, Chen Shaoheng couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm thinking about our future, and I hope the princess understands my good intentions."

Yan Yushu pursed her lips and clenched the dark porcelain bottle in her hand: "Where did you get this medicine?"

Chen Shaoheng's eyes dodge: "Don't worry about this..."

"No, I must know." Yan Yushu's attitude was firm, "If I don't know its efficacy, I won't do it easily."

"He is a person who is proficient in medicine and poison." Chen Shaoheng lowered his head and did not look at her eyes. "He tried the medicine on a cat. The cat was intact, but he was listless all day long, looked weak, and didn't like to eat much."

Yan Yushu was silent for a long time, and nodded slowly: "I know."

Chen Shaoheng seemed a little anxious: "When will you go to the Princess's Mansion?"

Yan Yushu asked back: "When do you think it's appropriate?"

"Tomorrow." Chen Shaoheng said, "You just had a miscarriage, so have a good rest tonight."

Yan Yushu didn't say yes or no, and it seemed like she agreed.

Chen Shaoheng took her hand, put it on his lips and kissed it: "I asked someone to make ginseng soup, you can drink some later, and have a good rest after drinking it."

Yan Yushu leaned against the head of the bed without saying a word.

Chen Shaoheng ordered people to take good care of Yan Yushu, and then got up and left.

Yan Yushu stared at his back without blinking, her pale lips slightly pursed, and her hand holding the porcelain bottle tightened a little bit.

She had just had a miscarriage today and was weak, but he ignored her health and asked her to go to the Princess's Mansion to poison Yan Donghuang?

Go tomorrow?

He was really that anxious.

With such a husband, what else could she expect from him?

With such a despicable and shameless character, could he really support the Pingyang Marquis' Mansion and protect her and their children?
