Chapter 563 Abyss (3)

Xuan Li's heart thumped, he pinched her chin and said word by word: "What did you say?"

Jiang Ruan seemed a little confused, and turned his head. There seemed to be a hint of innocence in his charming eyes. She said, "Didn't the princess in southern Xinjiang tell you that the imperial edict had been burned by the saint of southern Xinjiang." She lowered her eyelids: "At the time when the saint thought it was the throne-passing edict of His Thirteenth Highness, it was always to burn it. Maybe it wanted to win your favor, so she took the initiative to do it. But..." Jiang Ruan smiled slightly: "What she burned is your throne-passing edict."

What he burned was your edict to pass the throne by Your Highness.

Jiang Ruan's words were far away and near in his ears. In an instant, Xuan Li's whole mind was filled with these words. He suddenly felt his chest suddenly stagnated, as if all the blood in his body had solidified. It was clearly the spring day when spring was blooming, but it was as cold as the cold sky. He knew that Jiang Ruan would not lie about such things. Jiang Ruan's smile was sincere and joy. The imperial edict was really gone...

He let go of Jiang Ruan's hand in a daze, turned around and stumbled towards the door. When he stepped out of the door, he suddenly felt a sweet throat, and a mouthful of blood sprayed all the bluestone road in front of the door. But he seemed to have not seen half of it at all and continued to walk forward.

Jiang Ruan sat back to her original position and began to feel a little cramped in her abdomen. Xuan Li put too much force in her hand, which made her feel sick. She had just endured such a scene with Xuan Li. The imperial edict naturally wrote not Xuan Li's name, but the imperial edict to adopt the throne to Xiao Shao. However, only by telling Xuan Li that it was his edict to pass on the throne, Xuan Li, who had extremely strong self-esteem, would feel that it would be a blow. And importantly, tell him that the imperial edict was the saint of southern Xinjiang.

It was burned, Xuan Li would definitely not let the saint of southern Xinjiang go. Jiang Ruan could probably see the clues during the days when he was under house arrest. Qiman and Dan really didn't have a good relationship. Dan really burned the imperial edict that day. Qiman didn't have time to party at that time, but he would definitely get the news later. However, Qiman didn't even come to find her. Instead, he continued to be in peace as if nothing had happened. Perhaps Qiman also knew that if something really happened, Xuan Li would definitely find trouble for Dan really.

A princess of the previous dynasty and a saint of the current state of Southern Xinjiang, the relationship is subtle. Moreover, with Dan Zhen's temperament, he may not necessarily admit that this princess who caused the destruction of the Southern Xinjiang country. Qiman and Dan Zhen have different personalities and are best at lurking and enduring. In this way, perhaps even the matter of burning the imperial edict was deliberately let go.

The alliance between the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom and Xuan Li must break down. It would be best if Dan Zhen can be punished by Xuan Li's hand. But... Jiang Ruan covered her belly, and big drops of sweat rolled down from her forehead. She also felt a little scared in her heart. She was Pei'er's mother in the past and present life, but Pei'er was not her biological child. This was her first time getting pregnant and having her own child. When she was in the palace, she had seen countless concubines who were pregnant with children, and finally miscarried in various ways. Although there were other people who were ulterior motives, it also showed that the child was very fragile.

Now her abdominal pain is like a twisted one's hand, covering her stomach with one hand, almost fainting on the ground, gritting her teeth tightly, hesitating whether to call someone. If she screams like this, she will not be able to hide the fact that she has a child in her stomach. If she doesn't shout, if she has miscarriage, she will never forgive herself for her in her life.

At this moment, the mute maid hurriedly walked in. As soon as she entered the room, she turned around and closed the door. She was carrying a food basket that she usually delivered food. Then she lifted the lid of the food basket and took out a bowl from it.

Then the mute maid ran to Jiang Ruan, helped Jiang Ruan up, brought the bowl in her hand to Jiang Ruan, and whispered: "Drink quickly."

Jiang Ruan was stunned. At this moment, she didn't care about being surprised when the mute maid would speak. She just looked at the medicine in the bowl and felt a stern sound. She immediately remembered the scene of the concubines in the palace pouring saffron into the woman's mouth in her previous life. She looked at the mute maid vigilantly and said, "What is this?"

"Feal pills." The mute maid seemed anxious: "Drink it quickly, I don't know when their people will arrive."

Jiang Ruan glanced at the mute maid. The maid's anxiety didn't seem to be pretending. She had never shown any special appearance these days and could not speak. Jiang Ruan thought that this was the mute maid found by Xuan Li and the others to serve. She deliberately kept it from the mute maid, but now after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that the mute maid had never done anything to hurt her. She even helped her unintentionally many times.

Jiang Ruanxin made a fuss. She was not a person who could trust others easily, but for the sake of the child in her stomach, she also had a sense of intuition, so she poured the bowl of medicine without saying a word.

It was unknown how long it took for Jiang Ruan to feel the pain in his abdomen slightly relieved. The mute maid had already packed up the dishes, put out the rest of the food one by one, and helped her up and sat on the chair with her own hands. Jiang Ruan asked, "Are you sent by Xiao Shao?"

The mute maid was stunned and shook her head.

Jiang Ruan now also realized that the medicine was indeed a pill for pregnancy. The mute maid should have seen that she was pregnant, which was reasonable. No matter how much she hid it, no matter how many people who were with her day and night would find her unusualness. It would be just for those who were hiding in the yard to monitor. It would be a bit difficult to hide it in the same room. But the mute maid actually said that she was not someone sent by Xiao Shao, and why did not Xiao Shao help her like this?

"Who are you?" Jiang Ruan asked suspiciously.

While standing beside Jiang Ruan, the mute maid turned her back to the window and leaned over and said in a voice that two people could hear: "Xuan Li harmed my whole family, I want to take revenge."

Jiang Ruan was slightly stunned. No matter what, she didn't expect that it was the reason. She said, "What kind of deep hatred do you have with her?"

The mute maid said, "My father did things for Xuan Li. The matter was exposed. In order to protect himself, Xuan Li ordered people to slaughter 93 people from my family. I was away at that time and escaped by chance. I will eventually get back the ninety-three lives debts. I spent all my family money for so many years to seek opportunities."

Jiang Ruan frowned: "Then why are you here?"

"I was mixed up with the crowd of people in Xuanli's house and pretended to be a mute. When the housekeeper wanted to recruit someone to serve an important person, I picked me. The mute was good at doing things. I had this idea from the beginning. When I pretended to be a mute, I might find the opportunity to contact Xuanli's secrets. The sky had eyes, and finally let me wait for this opportunity."
