Chapter 10
Chi Jian's eyes almost popped out.

His good daughter was pregnant, and it was revealed in such a public.

It's a shame that he, a father, doesn't even know who the man with his daughter is.

No, that little bitch must have slandered people out of thin air!

Chi Jian's teeth were trembling, and she pointed at Chi Ruoxing angrily, but she was hindered by the regent next to her, so she couldn't swear for a long time.

At this time, an internal official led an adult in official uniform and carrying a medicine box into the courtyard.

"Coincidentally, Imperial Physician Wang just arrived. It is not in vain that Gu sent someone to invite him as soon as he heard about the Chi family." Gu Jingchen pursed his lips, "Let Imperial Physician Wang take good care of Miss Chi."

As soon as Physician Wang saluted and turned to go into the house, Chi Jinyue ran out clutching her stomach.

"Chi Ruoxing! You insult my innocence with nonsense! I will tear you apart!"

Chi Jinyue's face was pale, her hair was disheveled, and the broken hair was stuck to her face with sweat, making her look very embarrassed.

Xu Shi really exhausted her shouting, she suddenly rolled her eyes and passed out at the door, her lower body was bleeding immediately.

Gu Jingchen frowned, "Oh, bad luck."

After finishing speaking, he took Chi Ruoxing's hand and was about to leave.

With Chi Jinyue's appearance, how could those married ladies not understand that what Chi Ruoxing said was true.

The word "unlucky" is probably what everyone thinks.

So everyone followed Gu Jingchen and Chi Ruoxing, preparing to leave.

"I can't go, I need to make things clear today!"

A woman's cry came from behind, and everyone turned their heads.

Chi Ruoxing smiled, it was her aunt.

Gu Jingchen nodded his head in a rare way: "It turns out to be Mrs. Yao, Mrs. Zhongyonghou."

Mrs. Yao said loudly: "Although this is a matter of the back house, it involves things such as imperial objects such as cinnabar, and there are also such insidious things as poisoning. It must not be exposed indistinctly."

"Many female relatives are here today, and going to court may hurt everyone's reputation. But fortunately, the regent is personally driving, and I beg the prince to have a trial of this case, so that everyone can be treated fairly!"

Mrs. Yao's words were righteous and filled with righteous indignation.

Unexpectedly, the Prince Regent, who is usually a loner, is also a warm-hearted person in his bones.

After hearing Mrs. Yao's words, he turned back and sat down in the pavilion.

"Then let's have a trial." Gu Jingchen curled his lips and cast a meaningful glance at Chi Ruoxing who was sitting next to him.

Chi Ruoxing was naturally waiting to watch the show.

The mother beside Mrs. Yao had already brought the cake, Mrs. Yao asked: "Everyone, who ate this peach blossom cake?"

Everyone looks at me and I look at you, but no one responds.

Mrs. Yao saluted and said: "My lord, can I invite Doctor Wang to test this pastry?"

Gu Jingchen nodded in agreement.

Physician Wang heard that the prince was calling, so he immediately left Chi Jinyue and came out of the yard.

After inspecting the peach blossom cake, he replied: "My lord, it is said that this peach blossom cake should be considered non-toxic. But there are indeed some unusual herbs in it."

"The Lord of Medicine said that 'medicine is three parts poison', this medicinal material is both medicine and poison."

Sure enough, there was something wrong with the pastry, and everyone gasped.

"Peach Blossom Cake is made from peach petals. It's not a rare food. Every dim sum shop in the capital makes it differently."

Physician Wang picked up a piece of cake, "But the piece in my hand has raw pinellia in it."

The ladies present were puzzled: "What do you put Pinellia in the peach blossom cake?"

"Ban Xia?" Chi Ruoxing frowned, "Yesterday Cui Langzhong prescribed me aconitum in the medicine, and this morning he brought the medicine again, and he wanted to watch me finish it."

"Aconitum and pinellia are eaten together, and the toxicity intensifies!" Gu Jingchen's voice was cold.

Mrs. Yao was not far away, when she heard the words of the two people in the pavilion, she clutched her chest: "Fortunately Miss Ruoxing never ate this cake."

Chi Ruoxing winked at her: "It's okay, I didn't drink that medicine either."

Doctor Wang also said: "Although the medicine Pinellia has a thousand benefits, it is very harmful to women's pregnancy. And because of the cinnabar, Miss Chi... lost her baby."

"Did Doctor Wang find any cinnabar in this courtyard?" Gu Jingchen asked, "Isn't it really a girl or a lady who wears it?"

"I'm a man, even if I'm seventy or eighty years old, I can't go to the girl's boudoir to check around. But the old man smells, and there is indeed a scent of cinnabar in Miss Chi's room."

Gu Jingchen waved his hand, and all the internal officials went into the house together.

Chi Ruoxing had only taken a sip of tea when the leader's father-in-law came out with a sachet and replied:
"My lord, I found this in Miss Chi's room. It belongs to Ouchi, and it was hung on the bedside."

Doctor Wang took it and smelled it, and quickly opened the sachet to have a look, "There is indeed cinnabar, and the amount is not small!"

Gu Jingchen nodded: "Then hurry up and check the account books, and check out which noble person rewarded the palace in which year and day."

Imperial Physician Wang said to Na Gonggong: "The medicinal materials in this sachet are still new, so we will start to check from this year."

At this point in the matter, the truth has almost come to light. What Chi Jinyue suffered today is all a cocoon, no wonder others.

Chi Jian and Qin Xiu couldn't bear it anymore, but they were forced to stand aside by the two internal officials, unable to move.

I thought that the matter would be settled and there would be no more troubles, but when the internal officer flicked his wrist, Qin Xiu rushed out.

"My lord! You really don't know whose flesh and blood is in our Yue'er's stomach?"

In an instant, more than a dozen pairs of eyes looked at Gu Jingchen in unison.

Gu Jingchen sipped tea leisurely and contentedly: "Oh? Madam Qin, why don't you tell me, whose flesh and blood belong to it?"

"Of course it's yours!" Qin Xiu began to cry, "That day at the Chijia Biezhuang in the suburbs of Beijing, you took the love potion and met me, Yue'er..."

Chi Jian blushed with anger, and pointed at Qin Xiu's head, speechless for a long time.

Gu Jingchen shook his head and added tea to Chi Ruoxing: "It's not impossible to investigate this matter, Mrs. Qin, please respect yourself, don't drag the entire Chi family into the quagmire."

Chi Jian covered Qin Xiu's mouth, knelt down and kowtowed: "My lord, don't listen to this crazy woman talking nonsense."

Qin Xiu, whose mouth was covered, was still fighting vigorously: "You are crazy! No one can get what my Yue'er can't get! That bitch's daughter can't even get it!"

After shouting this sentence, at noon in March in Yangchun, the small courtyard seemed to be frozen by ice and snow.

Chi Ruoxing was savoring the meaning of Qin Xiu's words when Gu Jingchen suddenly grabbed his hand.

Mrs. Yao stepped forward and kicked Qin Xiu over: "Quickly explain the matter clearly! Who are you referring to when you speak of a bitch?"

Qin Xiu fell on the ground without saying a word.

Gu Jingchen pointed to Chi Jian: "Miss Qin, don't tell me, Master Chi, then let you talk about it."

"My lord, spare my life! My lord, spare my life!" Chi Jian would only kneel and kowtow and keep shouting.

Gu Jingchen glanced at the female relatives who were trying to whisper, "Let's talk about the 'that day' first, and help Mr. Chi recall memories."

"The former Japanese king went to the camp in the western suburbs to train troops. He was attacked on the way back to the city and suffered a small injury in his lower back. By coincidence, he met Lord Chi and invited him to sit in the villa."
